Date Version Notes
|
||||
----------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
2001-12-03 1.2 (ydnar) Alpha Initial version (win32)
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-03 1.2 (ydnar 2) Alpha Tolerance expanded
|
||||
(more brush faces caught)
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-04 1.2 (ydnar 3) Alpha Detail faces inside other
|
||||
detail brushes now culled,
|
||||
Small against large detail
|
||||
faces also culled.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-04 1.2 (ydnar 4) Alpha djbob found a bug where
|
||||
coincident caulk faces
|
||||
were causing textured
|
||||
faces to be caulked. Fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-04 1.2 (ydnar 7) Alpha 5 and 6 were internal test
|
||||
versions. This version
|
||||
takes into account extra
|
||||
surface info, so coplanar
|
||||
clip brushes no longer
|
||||
cull away textured sides.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-22 1.2 (ydnar 8) Alpha Optimized light. Lighting
|
||||
for most maps should now
|
||||
be measurable in minutes
|
||||
as opposed to hours.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-24 1.2 (ydnar 9) Alpha Fixed light. It is still
|
||||
faster, but to enable
|
||||
"blinding fast" mode,
|
||||
you must supply the -fast
|
||||
switch on the commandline
|
||||
after -light. Fast mode
|
||||
should be approximately
|
||||
2x as fast as build 8.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-24 1.2 (ydnar 10) Alpha Grid lighting is now
|
||||
optimized. Not as much
|
||||
as I would like, but
|
||||
a distance^2 cull before
|
||||
traces on EVERY SINGLE
|
||||
SURFACE LIGHT IN THE MAP
|
||||
certainly speeds things
|
||||
the fuck up. -fast not
|
||||
necessary to see this
|
||||
optimization. Also added
|
||||
the -cheap switch to
|
||||
limit light contributions
|
||||
to a point when it exceeds
|
||||
255 in R, G, and B. This
|
||||
*may* cause artifacts.
|
||||
Test away...
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-24 1.2 (ydnar 11) Alpha Now using PVS data (vis).
|
||||
Well constructed and
|
||||
hinted maps should now
|
||||
see a bit of a speedup.
|
||||
Lights in the void are
|
||||
also now removed as a
|
||||
byproduct.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-24 1.2 (ydnar 12) Alpha Fixed bug that caused
|
||||
vlight to crash.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-27 1.2 (ydnar 13) Alpha - Fixed broken PVS check.
|
||||
- Cheap now supresses sun
|
||||
Sun trace skipped if
|
||||
sample is "cheapened."
|
||||
- Experimental -smooth
|
||||
option for subsampling
|
||||
shadow edges.
|
||||
- Experimental radiosity
|
||||
code. Will probably crash.
|
||||
- Other minor optimizations.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-27 1.2 (ydnar 14) Alpha Build 13 always subsampled,
|
||||
making it slower. Fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-28 1.2 (ydnar 15) Alpha Bad windings from edge- or
|
||||
vertex- manipulated brushes
|
||||
no longer created. Vertex
|
||||
lighting on func_* with
|
||||
an origin now works.
|
||||
Radiosity should be more
|
||||
stable (but not fully
|
||||
correct yet). Light
|
||||
envelopes now properly
|
||||
calculated for entities
|
||||
with origins.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-28 1.2 (ydnar 16) Alpha Un-vised maps will now light.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-30 1.2 (ydnar 17) Alpha Radiosity. Use q3map_bounce
|
||||
in shaders to specify
|
||||
amount of light to reflect.
|
||||
Use -bounce N after -light
|
||||
to enable radiosity. Use
|
||||
-dump to emit radiosity
|
||||
lights as a prefab.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-31 1.2 (ydnar 18) Alpha Normalization release. New
|
||||
features include -fastgrid,
|
||||
-cheapgrid, and -fastbounce.
|
||||
Running with -fastgrid and
|
||||
-cheapgrid will produce
|
||||
results identical to normal
|
||||
q3map (with the lightgrid
|
||||
being a little darker).
|
||||
Also added q3map_nofast to
|
||||
shaders to override -fast
|
||||
switch for a surface light.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-01 1.2 (ydnar 19) Alpha Fixed an odd vertex lighting
|
||||
bug (thanks Quakin) that was
|
||||
causing sun to leak to brush
|
||||
faces when using r_vertexlight
|
||||
ingame. Changed a little bit
|
||||
of the default behavior, so
|
||||
test with vertex lighting
|
||||
and with terrain. Minor
|
||||
shader changes might be
|
||||
necessary to get some maps to
|
||||
look as before.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-01 1.2 (ydnar 20) Alpha Colored alpha shadows. Some
|
||||
minor optimizations in
|
||||
shadow tracing. Should be
|
||||
slightly faster than 19.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-02 1.2 (ydnar 21) Alpha Set up colored shadows
|
||||
properly to use
|
||||
surfaceparm lightfilter.
|
||||
Shaders must use this parm
|
||||
to have colored shadows.
|
||||
Can be used with alphashadow
|
||||
as well.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-04 1.2.1-y1 (nightly) This version is all new,
|
||||
based off the official
|
||||
GtkRadiant tree, which has
|
||||
all the previous enhancements.
|
||||
New features include colored
|
||||
lightgrid tracing through
|
||||
lightfilter shaders, and
|
||||
surfaceparm lightgrid, for
|
||||
large/space maps with large
|
||||
volumes. Also fixed are
|
||||
potential broken brush
|
||||
winding radiosity crashes.
|
||||
Maybe.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-05 1.2.1-y2 (nightly) Merged latest CVS. Removed
|
||||
bug where ambient was getting
|
||||
calculated into the radiosity
|
||||
solution for every pass,
|
||||
leading to overbright maps
|
||||
in a hurry. Also removed
|
||||
the bad PTPFF reporting,
|
||||
as it only caused problems
|
||||
with radiosity in a big way.
|
||||
Sue me.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-05 1.2.1-y3 (nightly) I really suck. Sample color
|
||||
now properly cleared to 0
|
||||
when bouncing.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-07 1.2.1-y4 (nightly) Particle Studio generated
|
||||
brush faces should no longer
|
||||
be culled. I no longer cull
|
||||
faces that are autosprite.
|
||||
Added -bouncegrid to have
|
||||
radiosity add to lightgrid.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-08 1.2.1-y5 (nightly) Same as y4, but compiled with
|
||||
full optimizations. Should
|
||||
be 10-25% faster in all,
|
||||
including BSP and vis
|
||||
stages.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-09 1.2.1-y6 (nightly) Brushfaces with polygonoffset
|
||||
in their shader will no longer
|
||||
be faceculled.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-11 1.2.1-y7 (nightly) Increased stack size for threads
|
||||
to 4MB on Win32 to (hopefully)
|
||||
elminate stack overflow
|
||||
crash with radiosity. Also
|
||||
made subdivision use the heap
|
||||
to lessen the stack load. Fixed
|
||||
bug where q3map_bounce was not
|
||||
being used in shader parsing.
|
||||
Redid some of the divide math
|
||||
to work in 0-255 instead of
|
||||
0-256.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-11 1.2.1-y8 (nightly) More Win32 threading
|
||||
crutches. Eat me, Bill.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-15 1.2.1-y9 RR2DO2 noticed a stupid bug
|
||||
in my PVS code. Fixed it,
|
||||
so the PVS light opts work as
|
||||
they should. Lighting is
|
||||
faster. Also got rid of some
|
||||
redundant square roots from
|
||||
the raytracing, speeding up
|
||||
lighting another ~25%.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-20 1.2.1-y10 Fixed a potential crash bug
|
||||
with maps with 0 lights. Also
|
||||
changed how lightmaps are
|
||||
projected onto patches that
|
||||
lie in a single plane (bevel
|
||||
endcaps, floors, etc). Shadows
|
||||
now work properly on them.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-22 1.2.1-y11 Fixed a divide-by-zero crash
|
||||
with maps with no lights or
|
||||
no tracing. Also added
|
||||
code to make brush/patch
|
||||
vertex lighting more closely
|
||||
resemble lightmap, even on
|
||||
less-than-perfect maps. And
|
||||
-light is faster, too...about
|
||||
25% on q3dm17. 34->25 seconds.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-24 1.2.1-y12 Completely rewrote the path
|
||||
argument handling. Should find
|
||||
the Quake 3 dir and other
|
||||
dirs properly now. Needs to
|
||||
be tested on Linux though.
|
||||
Also made lights linear by
|
||||
default when run with -game
|
||||
wolf. This is to match the
|
||||
Gray Matter q3map and
|
||||
entity definition.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-28 1.2.4-y1 Merged from 1.2.4-nightly CVS
|
||||
sources. Fog sparklies gone.
|
||||
-nopatchfix so vlight works
|
||||
properly again. Cleaned up
|
||||
paths processing some more,
|
||||
including Linux stuff. Added
|
||||
_lightmapscale entity key.
|
||||
Brought -game wolf lighting
|
||||
to parity with GM tools.
|
||||
RR2DO2's PCX loading fix. A
|
||||
bunch of other useful fun shit.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-29 1.2.4-y2 Fixed a bug in RR2DO2's PCX fix.
|
||||
Fixed a stupid bug in lightmap
|
||||
dimension bounds checking (thanks
|
||||
Laerth).
|
||||
|
||||
2002-01-29 1.2.4-y3 Now will detect (and report to
|
||||
GtkRadiant) all degenerate patches
|
||||
like those created by capping a
|
||||
cone.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-02-23 2.0.0-a1 thru a3 Rewrote about 30% of the code.
|
||||
Lots of cool new shit.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-02-24 2.0.0-a4 thru a8 Terrain fix (thx Pointy), patches
|
||||
are no longer circus colored, more
|
||||
terrain texturing fixes.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-02-26 2.0.0-a10 thru a11 Adjacent coplanar surfaces now
|
||||
will share lightmaps. This prevents
|
||||
most wierd edge cases with filter
|
||||
and speeds things up a bit. Patches
|
||||
too.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-02-27 2.0.0-a12 More lightmap fixes for non-planar
|
||||
surfaces. Bugfixes in allocation/
|
||||
compression of lightmaps as well.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-03-02 2.0.0-a13 Fixed some surface light bugs,
|
||||
adjusted the occluded-luxel finding
|
||||
code, and amped the radiosity. Other
|
||||
fixes to RTCW lighting code (better
|
||||
angle attenuation on linear lights).
|
||||
|
||||
2002-03-04 2.0.0-a14 Vertex light should now be near-
|
||||
perfect on clean (and mostly on not-
|
||||
so-clean) maps. Unlit maps will no
|
||||
longer have tri-fanned brush faces
|
||||
with random vertex colors. VLight is
|
||||
now totally gone (reverts to -light).
|
||||
|
||||
2002-03-06 2.0.0-a15 Relaxed the planar check, should now
|
||||
classify all slightly-off plane brush
|
||||
face metasurfaces as planar. Triangle
|
||||
checking much more stringent as well.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-03-11 2.0.0-a16 Vis crash gone. Lightmap allocation
|
||||
now sorted by shader to minimize
|
||||
shader count (and lessen chance for
|
||||
RTCW shader substitution bug). Hit
|
||||
big quarter-century also.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-03-12 2.0.0-a17 Dammit.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-03-12 2.0.0-a18 Hunting phantom lights...
|
||||
|
||||
2002-03-16 2.0.0-a19 Fogclip and _celshader. Check the
|
||||
extras folder...
|
||||
|
||||
2002-03-18 2.0.0-b1-rc1 Beta release candidate. Fixed the
|
||||
stupid phantom light bug finally.
|
||||
Tricked out the sun tracing a wee
|
||||
bit as well, should be a little
|
||||
faster + more accurate. Other little
|
||||
bits fixed up as well. Thanks to K,
|
||||
{wf}ShadowSpawn and RR2DO2 for their
|
||||
help tracking these last bugs down.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-03-19 2.0.0-b1-rc2 Increased some maximums, and got
|
||||
rid of some cruft.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-03-22 2.0.0-b1-rc3 Some minor optimizations.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-03-30 2.0.0-b1-rc5 Now with fur (see extras/fur.shader).
|
||||
|
||||
2002-04-01 2.0.0-b1-rc6 Enhanced with baby seal technology.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-05-01 2.0.1 OK, better late than never. Fixed the
|
||||
alphashadow = 255 = transparent bug.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-06-24 2.1.0-b1 Added _foghull functionality. Works
|
||||
like terrain "_shader" where
|
||||
you don't need "textures/" prefix.
|
||||
Also added q3map_normalmap. See
|
||||
NVIDIA's website for Photoshop filter
|
||||
to generate normalmaps from grayscale
|
||||
heightmaps. This makes lightmaps
|
||||
look bumpmapped. Currently 50% broken.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-07-06 2.2.0-b1 Empty epairs now stripped from map,
|
||||
fixing Wolfenstein crash bug. Func_*
|
||||
entities are now fogged properly.
|
||||
Sort of. This will be enhanced later.
|
||||
Added the .srf file to store all the
|
||||
extra crap I was hiding in the BSP.
|
||||
It's an editable text file that
|
||||
-light uses, so you can change the
|
||||
samplesize w/o recompiling the map
|
||||
(just -light'ing it). Changed color
|
||||
normalization to clamping, because
|
||||
it looks better. Other stuff got
|
||||
fixed as well.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-07-08 2.2.0-b2 thru b11 Test versions. Thanks jer and jet!
|
||||
|
||||
2002-07-09 2.2.0-b12 Larger-than-life lightmaps are now
|
||||
supported, up to 1024x1024. Add
|
||||
q3map_lightmapSize H W to a shader
|
||||
to use. Lightmaps are stored in
|
||||
maps/{mapname}/_lm_NNN.tga and a
|
||||
shader script q3map_{mapname}.shader
|
||||
is generated. Also added
|
||||
q3map_lightmapGamma N.N. Use a
|
||||
value of 2.0 to simulate
|
||||
r_overBrightBits 1 and
|
||||
r_mapOverBrightBits 2 on external
|
||||
lightmap images.
