Specifications developed in PR #3206 require that groundcover content files must not be allowed to corrupt normal content files. With this PR we simply isolate our existing loading logic by instantiating a separate `ESMStore` for `Groundcover`. In addition, we remove some outdated workarounds.
This PR aims to solve all issues with `Groundcover` view distance handling in a satisfying way while preserving other optimisations that benefit other features. The main idea here is not to rely on `ViewData` updates for distance culling calculations because we can not accurately determine distance against lazily updated views. Instead, we perform an accurate measurement in a cull callback we can run every frame in `Groundcover` itself. While we do have to add some code to handle this feature, it is quite loosely coupled code that could be useful elsewhere in the future. These changes should address a performance regression @akortunov experienced.
This PR aims to solve `uniform block LightBufferBinding has no binding` messages @glassmancody has reportedly encountered since PR #3110 due to an apparent bug in OSG. While we do have to add a workaround here that adds a bit of clunkiness, #3216 should allow us to clean up these interactions a bit in the future.
1) As much as I dislike it, upping the collision margin from 0.1 to 0.2
fixes bugs, particularly involving walking into upwards-slanted walls.
2) There were still some problems involving acute crevices/seams; they
were using the adjusted instead of unadjusted normal, and also they need
to bypass the don't-slide-upwards check to prevent (see #6379)
3) The move-away-from-what-we-just-hit code needs to run always, not
just on non-initial iterations. No idea why I did it this way before.
4) Force bullet to give actor boxes a tiny collision margin of 0.001
instead of the default 0.04. I can't tell whether this is actually
working or not, but it should reduce unexplained weirdness.
5) A piece of code that was meant to prevent bugs by short-circuiting
the movement solver if its direction changed more than 180 degrees
actually caused problems instead of preventing them, so I deleted it.
With this PR we refactor `StringUtils::replaceAll` to accept `string_view` as suggested in a code comment. In addition, while we are touching this rebuild happy file, we slim it down a bit by moving a few sparingly used functions elsewhere.
This PR removes unneeded `lowerCaseInPlace` calls in in a hot path of `objectpaging.cpp` that are no longer necessary after PR #3197. In addition, I have been informed that these changes should by coincidence address a compiler specific compilation error we currently experience.
* Handle culling of all sound sources in a separate function cull3DSound
* Add two new settings Sound::sfx fade in duration and Sound::sfx fade out duration
* Implement a more general SoundBase::setFade that can be used to fade to any desired
volume and not just fading out
* Implement SoundBase::setFadeout by using SoundBase::setFade
* Implement an exponential fade mode
* resets state updater to apply light settings (#3141)
resets state updater to apply light settings
With this PR we achieve the same effect with fewer lines of code.
* fixes LightSource logic errors
We currently update `LightSource::setActorFade` in `TransparencyUpdater`. There are several logic errors inherent in this approach:
1. We fail to update `LightSource::setActorFade` for off screen actors because their `TransparencyUpdater` cull callback is not invoked.
2. We fail to update `LightSource::setActorFade` in the instant that a `TransparencyUpdater` is removed.
3. We fail to update `setActorFade` when an `mExtraLightSource` is created after calling `Animation::setAlpha`.
With this PR we avoid such issues by updating `LightSource::setActorFade` in `Animation::setAlpha` and `Animation::addExtraLightSource` instead.
This PR fixes an assertion introduced by #3211. For some reason my build originally did not contain assertions despite passing `DEBUG` into cmake, but after deleting `CMakeCache.txt` I have now hit the assertion @glassmancody reported as well.
With this PR we restore the previous order of `ESM::Dialogue` entries implicitly changed by PR #3197. In the future we may want to consider additional verification and documentation of `mShared` order inconsistencies. We might additionally consider applying this sorting in the particular code that requires it.
This PR aims to start addressing `ESM` design issues that have silenced errors we incorporated into groundcover `ESM` loading approaches.
- We move the resolution of `parentFileIndices` from `ESMStore` to `ESMReader` as suggested in a `TODO` comment.
- We improve a highly misleading comment which downplayed the significance of `parentFileIndices`.
- We document important preconditions.
- We move a user facing error message to the highest level and improve its context.
- We remove an inappropriate `setGlobalReaderList` method. We now pass this reader list into the method that requires it.
- We remove a thoroughly pointless optimisation of `Store<ESM::LandTexture>`'s construction that has unnecessarily depended on `getGlobalReaderList`.
There should be no functional changes for `master`, but this PR should remove an issue blocking PR #3208.
With this PR we restore @elsid 's optimisations of countRecords we have unintentionally discarded in PR #3197. In addition, we give it a more appropriate name and add comments concerning its peculiar background.
With this PR we refactor `SceneUtil::KeyframeController` not to require `virtual osg::Callback` inheritance. I suppose such `virtual` overhead is not justified here because it negatively impacts many other classes we derive from `osg::Callback`.
Previous version skipped collision the frame immediately after a call to SetPos. It worked for one-off calls (teleports for instance) and continuous call along a pre-defined path (scenic travel). However, in the case of mod which uses SetPos to simulate a player-controlled movement, it is equivalent to using tcl.
Solution:
1/ skip update of mPosition and mPreviousPosition to avoid janky interpolation
2/ use back plain moveObject() instead of moveObjectBy() since we don't want physics simulation
3/ rework a little bit waterwalking influence on coordinate because of 1/
With this PR we refactor a `premultiplied alpha` user string set by `characterpreview.cpp` into a more flexible mechanism allowing us to assign any state to GUI textures. We can consider these changes more future proof than the previous approach.
This PR aims to spark the retirement of a questionable pattern I have found all over our code base. I will illustrate how this pattern encourages code duplication, lacks type safety, requires documentation and can be prone to bugs.
```
std::map<std::string, Object> mMap; // Stored in all lowercase for a case-insensitive lookup
std::string lowerKey = Misc::StringUtils::lowerCase(key);
mMap.emplace(lowerKey, object);
std::string lowerKey = Misc::StringUtils::lowerCase(key);
mMap.find(lowerKey);
mMap.find(key); // Not found. Oops!
```
An alternative approach produces no such issues.
```
std::unordered_map<std::string, Object, Misc::StringUtils::CiHash, Misc::StringUtils::CiEqual> mMap;
mMap.emplace(key, object);
mMap.find(key);
```
Of course, such an alternative will work for a `map` as well, but an `unordered_map` is generally preferable over a `map` with these changes because we have moved `lowerCase` into the comparison operator.
In this PR I have refactored `Animation::mNodeMap` accordingly. I have reviewed and adapted all direct and indirect usage of `Animation::mNodeMap` to ensure we do not change behaviour with this PR.
To construct serializer from given entities:
* Data source/destination - any value that has to be serialized/deserialized,
usually already existing type.
* Format - functional object to define high level serialization logic to
define specific format and data schema. Like order of fields, allocation.
* Visitor - functional object to define low level serialization logic to
operator on given data part.
* BinaryWriter - copies given value into provided buffer.
* BinaryReader - copies value into given destination from provided buffer.
* SizeAccumulator - calculates required buffer size for given data.
This PR fixes a crash caused by the improperly ensured lifetime of RigGeometry::mSourceGeometry. mSourceGeometry was not adequate to ensure mSourceGeometry would outlive mGeometry because we extend mGeometrys lifetime beyond this lifetime by passing mGeometry to the draw traversal instead of this.
In addition,
We add important comments.
We detect and prevent generally unsafe operations in high level code.
We add a sprinkling of const to help clarify intentions.
Currently, we use an `UnrefQueue` which supposedly aims to transfer destruction costs to another thread. The implications of this unusual pattern can not be well understood because some allocators might free resources more efficiently if they are freed by the same thread that allocated them. In addition, `UnrefQueue` complicates the validation of thread safety in our engine. Lastly, our current usage of `UnrefQueue` triggers `ref()`, `unref()` atomic operations as objects are passed into the queue. These operations could be more expensive than the actual destruction.
With this PR we thus remove `UnrefQueue`. We can expect these changes to have a minor impact at most because we free most resources elsewhere in `ResourceSystem::updateCache`.
It can fail due to float arithmetic precision with error:

We currently build a large map of a BSAFile's contents unused by Open MW. We already map archive contents in VFS. With this PR we remove the map from BSAFile and reimplement its only current use in BSATool.
