Shader stage tcMods for matrix and turb effects need to be applied in
order for turb to be correct and all tcMod turb need to be applied
instead of only the last one.
Quake 3's textures/liquids/slime1 had tcMod turb and then tcMod scale.
OpenGL2 applied the matrix first and then turb which had the wrong result.
Using GPU vertex skinning is significantly faster than CPU vertex
skinning. Especially since OpenGL2 has to run R_VaoPackNormal() and
R_VaoPackTangent() each vertex each frame which causes CPU vertex
skinning to be significantly slower than OpenGL1 renderer.
OpenGL ES is only required to support unsigned short for element buffer
values.
R_DrawElements() firstIndex argument was glIndex_t which caused element
indexes to wrap around to 0 when glIndex_t is an unsigned short.
(glIndex_t is an index into the vertexes buffer, not element buffer.)
Change it to 'int' like tess.firstIndex which is passed to
R_DrawElements().
World VAO cache buffer size allowed storing more vertexes than unsigned
short glIndex_t could reference. This resulted in the vertex indexes in
the element buffer wrapping around to 0.
Moved all the code using Altivec intrinsics to separate files. This
means we can optionally use GCC's -maltivec on just these files, which
are chosen at runtime if the CPU supports Altivec, and compile the rest
without it, making a single binary that has Altivec optimizations but
can still work on G3.
Unlike SSE and similar extensions on x86, there does not seem to be
a way to enable conditional, targeted use of Altivec based on runtime
detection (which is what ioquake3 wants to do) without also giving the
compiler permission to use Altivec in code generation; so to not crash
on CPUs that do not implement Altivec, we'll have to turn it off
altogether, except in translation units that are only entered when
runtime Altivec detection is successful.
This has been tested on Linux PPC (on an Altivec-enabled CPU),
but we may need further work after testing trickles out to other
PowerPC devices and ancient Mac OS X builds.
I did a little work on this patch, but the majority of the effort belongs
to Simon McVittie (thanks!).
After 'Fix floating point precision loss in renderer', Windows x86
client won't load the renderer DLLs. The problem is a 64 bit modulus.
I couldn't find any reports of this online. However, client with
built-in renderer worked with the 64 bit modulus.
Only tested with mingw-w64.
Fix floatTime using float precision instead of double using GCC.
Fix R_BindAnimatedImage to be in sync with function table.
Fix vertexDeform bulge, vertexDeform normals, noise wave function
at high level time.
Revert unnecessary float -> double conversions.
Patch for https://bugzilla.icculus.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5931 by
Eugene C. from 2013 plus recent fix for tcMod rotate.
I merged the changes into the OpenGL2 renderer though the fix for
tcMod turb doesn't translate.
