vsprintf may change its va_list argument so repeatedly calling it with the same va_list arg is undefined behavior.
Fix this by creating a copy of the va_list argument before each vsprintf call.
Should stop the sky flashing in lemans24, and the background totally disappearing in sega rally after a game. The logic here is still not totally understood but works well enough for the games.
Late christmas present. Due to the way alpha works on the model3 adding regular anti-aliasing doesn't really work. Supersampling is very much a brute force solution, render the scene at a higher resolution and mipmap it.
It's enabled via command line with the -ss option, for example -ss=4 for 4x supersampling or by adding Supersampling = 4 in the config file.
Note non power of two values work as well, so 3 gives a very good balance between speed and quality. 8 will make your GPU bleed, since it is essentially rendering 64 pixels for every visible pixel on the screen.
The two transparency layers, might not be separate layers at all. We believe the hardware is writing each layer to every other pixel (stipple alpha), then using an anti-aliasing filter to effectively blend the pixels. Because the pixels don't overlap they don't depth test against each other. We are using separate layers to emulate this, so the depth buffer must be saved and restored between the layers.
If two translucent polygons with opposing patterns overlap the result is always opaque
Also the LOD scale calculation depends on Euclidean distance of x, y and z, not just z
The stencil mask must be set to all 1s otherwise we can't clear all the bits in the stencil buffer. Also we no longer need to save/restore the depth buffer into between priority layers.
Scroll attenuation seems to disable ambient fog. If scroll attenuation is enabled it's telling the h/w to draw the real3d spot light on fog for the scroll fog layer. This should fix a regression where the background disappears on sega rally.
The attenuation value effects the spot light on fog for the scroll fog layer. The old implemention was nearly correct but the paramaters for the mix function were swapped.
- Scroll fog needed a break statement otherwise it could draw potentially multiples times.
- The fog atttenuation paramater doesn't appear to effect scroll fog, other than to potentially enable it. This fixes some issues with emergency call ambulance.
- Added support for the node discard attributes which sega rally2 uses to throw away specific geometry. This fixes junk that starts to show up in the levels after multiple runs.
Polygons have a line of sight value that's either a 0 or 1. We write this value into the stencil buffer, then read the app can read it back to determine the polygon attribute is visible or not. The returned value is 1/depth value in world coordinates. The first bit of the float is actually a control bit, 1 indicates no geometry hit, 0 indicates geometry hit.
