It is implemented as a post-processing effect. The hack for the
projection transform matrix has been removed, because now the image is
flipped upside down in the post-processing stage.
This introduces draw_plugin struct that can be attached to a sprite.
The update() function of attached plugin is called every frame by
sact_Update(). This corresponds to the DrawPlugin mechanism of
System4/SACT2.
This is currently used only from DrawDungeon. The 3D engine for Toushin
Toshi 3 etc. will also use this.
Major differences from DrawDungeon.hll are:
- DGN, DTX, TES are loaded from individual files, not from a DLF archive
- 2D map functions are not used
- (unimplemented) Spinning motion of event markers
- (unimplemented) Additional 3D object types (polygon models and roofs)
Before this, all objects that share a texture were drawn at once.
Objects were not depth-sorted, so if a transparent object was drawn
first, objects behind it were not drawn.
After this, dungeon is drawn for each cell, sorted by distance from
the camera position. To reduce the number of cells to be drawn, PVS
(Potentially Visible Set) stored in dgn files is used.
In addition to DrawDungeon.c, this adds the following files in
{src,include}/dungeon/:
- dgn.{h,c}: Parser for .dgn (map data)
- dtx.{h,c}: Parser for .dtx (textures)
- tes.{h,c}: Parser for .tes (sound IDs associated with textures)
- dungeon.{h,c}: Renderer main routines
- mesh.{h,c}: Renderer for walls and stairs
- skybox.{h,c}: Renderer for background cubemap
- event_markers.{h,c}: Renderer for event markers
And the following changes are made to the existing graphics code:
- sact_Update() calls dungeon_update(), so that event markers animate
- gfx_render_texture() renders vertically flipped image when
texture.flip_y == true (see the comment in dungeon_context_create())
Some features are not implemented yet, including 2D maps and door
animation.
This makes cglm a dependency.
