deal with a index_buffer memory leak that Valgrind has always complained about
make HTL model buffers dynamic (get rid of MAX_BUFFERS_PER_SUBMODEL)
get rid of MAX_BUFFERS
make D3D vertex buffers dynamic, like OGL has already done
allow us to build without D3D support under Windows (just define NO_DIRECT3D)
clean up TMAP flags
fix a couple of minor OpenGL state change issues with spec and env map rendering
make sure we build again for OS X (OGL extension functions work a little different there)
render targets always need to be power-of-2 to avoid incomplete buffer issues in the code
when we disable culling in opengl_3dunlit be sure that we re-enable it on exit of function
re-fix screenshots
add true alpha blending support (with cmdline for now since the artwork has the catch up)
draw lines with float positioning, to be more accurate with resizing on non-standard resolutions
don't load cubemaps from file for D3D, not sure how to do it anyway
update geometry batcher code, memory fixes, dynamic stuff, basic fixage, etc.
let gr_render_buffer() render untextured polys (OGL only until some D3D people fix it on their side)
add MR_SHOW_OUTLINE_HTL flag so we easily render using HTL mode for wireframe views
make Interp_verts/Interp_norms/etc. dynamic and get rid of the extra htl_* versions
if there's no -env command-line) which created the cube-map and didn't check
if the creation of it failed. Added the same sanity check to d3d_render_to_env
OGL can take advantage of this if they want but it won't break
anything if they don't. also state block code has been implemented,
that's totaly internal to D3D no high level code is involved.
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.
Changed htl to be on by default, command now -nohtl
Changed D3D to use a 2D vertex for 2D operations which should cut down on redundant data having to go though the system.
Added small change to all -start_mission flag to take you to any mission by filename, very useful for testing.
Removed old dshow code and took away timerbar compile flag condition since it uses a runtime flag now.
you shouldn't see anything diferent, as the ifdef should be set to the way it should be, if it isn't you will get a warning mesage during compile telling you how to fix it
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.
Its optional and off by default, use -d3d_particle to activiate.
Also bumped up D3D ambient light setting, it was way too dark.
Its now set to something similar to the original game.
