Set laser function to only render the effect one sided.
Added some stuff to the credits.
Set D3D fogging to fall back to vertex fog if table fog not supported.
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.
Also 32 bit PCX, but it still has some bugs to be worked out
Moved convert_24_to_16 out of the bitmap pfunction structures and into packunpack.cpp because thats the only place that uses it.
suport for seperate specular levels on lights and
optional strings for the stars table
code has been made more organised,
though there seems to be a bug in the state selecting code
resulting in the HUD being rendered incorectly
and specmapping failing ocasionaly
useing a phong lighting model I have made specular highlights
that are mapped to the model,
rendering them is still slow, but they look real purdy
also 4 new (untested) comand lines, the XX is a floating point value
-spec_exp XX
the n value, you can set this from 0 to 200 (actualy more than that, but this is the recomended range), it will make the highlights bigger or smaller, defalt is 16.0 so start playing around there
-spec_point XX
-spec_static XX
-spec_tube XX
these are factors for the three diferent types of lights that FS uses, defalt is 1.0,
static is the local stars,
point is weapons/explosions/warp in/outs,
tube is beam weapons,
for thouse of you who think any of these lights are too bright you can configure them you're self for personal satisfaction
