add lab stuff to Makefile
build unbreakage for everything that's not MSVC++ 6
lots of warning fixes
fix OpenGL rendering problem with ship insignias
no Warnings() in non-debug mode for Linux (like Windows)
some campaign savefile fixage to stop reverting everyones data
OK, these changes effect a lot of file, I suggest everyone updates ASAP:
Removal of many files from project.
Removal of meanless Gr_bitmap_poly variable.
Removal of glide, directdraw, software modules all links to them, and all code specific to those paths.
Removal of redundant Fred paths that arent needed for Fred OGL.
Have seriously tidied the graphics initialisation code and added generic non standard mode functionality.
Fixed many D3D non standard mode bugs and brought OGL up to the same level.
Removed texture section support for D3D8, voodoo 2 and 3 cards will no longer run under fs2_open in D3D, same goes for any card with a maximum texture size less than 1024.
In OGL it works perfectly and in both API's it doesnt switch to the desktop anymore so hopefully people will not experience the crashes etc that the old system used to suffer from.
Fixed bug in old ship choice screen that stopped ani repeating.
Changed all builds (demo, OEM) to use retail reg path, this means launcher can set all them up successfully.
Put my 32bit PCX loading under PCX_32 compile flag until its working.
Fixed a bug with res 640x480 I introduced with my non standard mode code.
Changed JPG and TGA loading command line param to "-t32"
As well as initialised in a different mode, bitmaps are stretched and for these modes
previously point filtered textures now use linear to keep them smooth.
I also had to shuffle some of the GR_1024 a bit.
Put my HT&L flags in ready for my work to sort out some of the render order issues.
Tided some other stuff up.
fs2_open now uses the registry entry 'VideocardFs2open' instead of 'Videocard' to store its video settings. To run fs2_open now you MUST use the launcher I have provided.
Launcher binary: http://mysite.freeserve.com/thomaswhittaker/c_code/freespace/Launcher.rar
Launcher source code: http://mysite.freeserve.com/thomaswhittaker/c_code/freespace/Launcher_code.rar
I have also taken the opertunity to fix a few bugs in the launcher and add a new feature to make selecting mods a bit easier.
The launcher now uses some files in the freespace project so it should be put into CVS with the rest of the code inside the 'code' directory (still in its 'Launcher' dir of course). Currently the launcher wont compile since speech.cpp and speech.h arent in cvs yet. But once Roee has checked in that will be sorted.
I have also removed the internal launcher from the D3D8 module.
Please contact me if you have any problems.
When trying to run the exe after updating I get an error parsing 'rank.tbl' but im fairly sure thats nothing to do with me so I'll just have to leave it for now because I'm still using a 56K modem and cant afford to find out.
