pr_dumpplatform can now optionally filter symbols via some specific external files, adding deprecated tags for any symbol not also supported by DP and QSS.
Rework CSQC globals to use macros, to ensure completeness and consistency.
rework sv_csqcdebug to use special svcs. This should make it more robust.
Fix some scary warnings when vid_reloading the vulkan renderer.

Move crc-based module-type prints to after any warnings about missing symbols.
Fix load-game bug that was causing strings to be forgotten (reported by Orl).
Add (virtual) mod+pow opcode variants that accept int types.

emenu: clean up hexen2's maplist options slightly.
emenu: modelviewer should now be slightly more friendly (click+wasd to move around).
particles: fix up randomised s coords.
csqc: try to fix issue with applycustomskin not refcounting properly.
client: [s_]precache and (new) mod_precache cvars can be set to 2 to precache the resources after load, for faster loading at the expense of some early stutter, without risking later mid-game stuttering.
gltf: add support for morphweights in a cpu-fallback path. don't expect good performance on surfaces with morphtargets for now.
gtlf: add some support for gltf1 files. far from perfect.
shaders: gltf1 semantics handling
shaders: const correctness
iqmtool: fix up mdl skin export.
iqmtool: integrate the engine's gltf2 loader. works with animated models, but unanimated ones suffer from basepose-different-from-bindpose issues.
q3bsp: hopefully fixed bih traces. still disabled for now.
qc: change default value of pr_gc_threaded to 1.
qcext: add the '__deprecated' keyword to various symbols in fteextensions.qc, now that fteqcc supports it.
ssqc: spit out a more readable error for WriteByte(MSG_CSQC,...) outside of SendEntity.
ssqc: add registercommand builtin, for consistency with menuqc and csqc (though only one can register any single command).
sv: report userinfo/serverinfo sizes (some clients still have arbitrary limits, plus its nice to see how abusive things are)
sv: try to optimise sv_cullentities_trace a little.
movechain: relink moved ents.
csqc: add spriteframe builtin, for freecs to use instead of more ugly less reliable hacks.
menuqc: fopen("tls://host:port", FILE_STREAM) should now open a tls stream. tcp:// should also work.
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5703 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
Implement OP_STOREF_F, but don't generate it just yet (waiting for next 'stable' build).
Just disable fteqcc.log by default. If this affects adversely you then you should probably just be using fteqccgui instead.
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5698 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
Fix prediction issues with the ftenq protocol.
Fix some console image previews.
Added mod_precache cvar. set to 0 to significantly reduce memory usage in xonotic...
Prevent xonotic's random file writes from forcing full worker syncs, for faster loading.
QTV connections are now accepted only from localhost peers by default.
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5694 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
Fixed up the -netquake / -spasm / -fitz args slightly, should actually be usable now.
sv_mintic 0 is now treated as 0.013 when using nqplayerphysics, to try to make it smoother for nq clients.
Preparing for astc's volume formats. Mostly for completeness, I was bored. Disabled for now because nothing supports them anyway.
Fix broken mousewheel in SDL2 builds.
Fix configs not getting loaded following initial downloads in the web port/etc.
Make the near-cloud layer of q1 scrolling sky fully opaque by default (like vanilla).
Sky fog now ignores depth, treating it as an infinite distance.
Fix turbs not responding to fog.
r_fullbright no longer needs vid_reload to take effect (and more efficient now).
Tweaked the audio code to use an format enum instead of byte width, just with the same values still, primarily to clean up loaders that deal with S32 vs F32, or U8 vs S8.
Added a cvar to control whether to use threads for the qcgc. Still disabled by default but no longer requires engine recompiles to enable!
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5683 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
GL: r_dynamic -1 is now r_temporalscenecache 1, which makes menu options etc a little friendlier. fixed a serious memory leak.
GL: Lightmaps are now uploaded using pbos to reduce cpu stalls (especially with temporalscenecache) and the resulting periodic framerate drops. Requires gl4.4.
PM: moved manifest-downloads to the package manager. still needs some proper testing.
PM: Fixed bug with downloading updates from every known mirror for that update.
PM: Fixed bug with duplicate mirrors...
PM: menuqc is now able to query available updates.
engine's Draw_TextBox centers the text box more appropriately and easily.
SV: added sv_autooffload cvar, when set the map command will automatically create a server in a separate process to reduce the effects of stutter in inefficient ssqc mods.
Menu: menu_mods now shares data with getgamedirinfo builtin.
MenuQC: Added some extra properties to the getgamedirinfo builtin.
MenuQC: Added Menu_RendererRestarted entrypoint.
MenuQC: _vid_renderer_opts cvar now has a value that actually reflects the windowing systems in the build, rather than just renderers.
CQSC: Added getlocationname builtin.
ALSA: device names are now more consistent with other audio drivers.
SV: added unsavegame console command, to delete unwanted saved games.
SV: hashtable entries are now saved into saved games.
SV: reworked player remapping strategy when loading games. Player slots are now directly swapped serverside, not reconnected.
SV: resend all csqc entity state when a client signals that it started recording a demo.
SV: Added SOLID_BSPTRIGGER as a shapely alternative to the aabb SOLID_TRIGGER. modelindex must still be set for this to work.
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5668 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
It would have been cvar'd, but we figured it'd be a waste of LOC.
Handle this in the game-logic instead.
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5663 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
allow for binary updates on linux as on windows (-allowupdate for modified/nonsvn builds).
dlightmask is now size_t, because we might as well allow that on 64bit cpus, this allows for 64 lightmaphack lights instead of 32.
fix potential openal issue with source=0.
added q3bsp_ignorestyles cvar to ignore rbsp styles (and reduce needed batch counts), should only be used on maps with subtle lighting changes (ones that are properly lit without toggling any lightswitches).
add support for directly loading foo.bsp.gz
Added prints to clarify why servers might be listed under the 'UNKNOWN' category in the master server. Attempt to show hostnames anyway, to make it a little more obvious who's responsible for those badly configured servers.
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5656 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5

Q3TA: added the UI_CIN_* and CG_CIN_* builtins for 2d cinematic playbacks.
Q3TA: backspace should work for gamecode text entry now.
Q3TA: map_restart now directly restarts without needing loading screens.
Fixed multiple envmap generation bugs.
Fixed envmaps getting flushed with r_keepimages 0.
Console image previews can now display cubemaps (although their orientation is probably a little off).
Made a 'remapshader' csqc builtin. Depending on the r_remapshader console command was stupid.
Fixed packet command to create a udp socket, if needed.
sv_public can now be set to a non-numeric name for custom names (instead of needing to poke sv_port too).
Support extended data on the end of miptex entries in bsps. Requires a qbsp (like vanilla) that doesn't rewrite the miptex entries.
Updated imgtool to generate/read our new extended miptex data.
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5644 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
Rework q3bsp_mergedlightmaps as q3bsp_mergelightmaps. Now a boolean filling to the gpu's limit. Now also fills horizontally too.
ftemaster now provides needpass info for sv_public 2 servers.
fix (most?) ftemaster crashes.
ftemaster now supports protocol name aliases (allowing for more friendly game names in its html).
ftemaster now pings the servers from a different port. This should highlight/exclude servers that are unreachable for nat/firewall reasons.
Fix memory leak from mvd recording.
Servers should now cope better with ctrl-z and related fg/bg unix shell commands.
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5638 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
reimplemented qtvreverse command.
fixed some stuffcmds being handled by the wrong splitscreen seats (was noticable in TF).
rework smartjump to try to be more predictable...
rework relighting to try to be more robust (and more self-contained).
allow the csqc to actually use VF_PROJECTIONOFFSET.
jump now moves upwards instead of trying to lock on to a nearby player when spectating.
assume 32 fullbright pixels when running with a palette.lmp yet no colormap.lmp (happens with some total conversions).
tweaked scoreboard for fainter backgrounds.
rearranged autoid, to be smaller etc.
hacked around dodgy conchars.lmp - don't treat 128*128 qpics as qpics to work around workarounds for buggy wad tools (with a warning).
fixed missing fullbrights on h2holey models.
avoided warning about mod_h2holey_bugged on dedicated servers.
added net_ice_exchangeprivateips, for people worried about exposing lan IPs when using ICE.
sv_public 2: implemented client support for our webrtc broker in order to use our own ICE implementation without needing to faff around with irc accounts or plugins etc.
TODO: ensure at least one ephemerial udp port when using ice or come up with some better sv_port handling
fixed multiple tls bugs (one could cause server problems). change net_enable_tls to disabled by default anyway (reenable for the server to be able to respond to https/wss/tls schemes again).
don't colourmap when there appears to be a highres diffusemap on q1 models.
imgtool now understands exporting from qpics in wads, as well as just mips.
implemented speed-o-meter in ezhud.
added removeinstant builtin to avoid the half-second rule.

fix GPD_LIMIT_PITCH not properly limiting +lookdown.
fix plugins not auto-loading properly (when previously enabled, obviously).
engine updates now try to replace the 'launcher' binary, instead of chaining from it. this should make firewalls (and other shady special-case gldriver hacks) more consistent at the cost of not being able to revert to your initial revision.
imgtool can now extract from wads.
imgtool now compiles+works on windows (GoaLitiuM's code).
update ffmpeg plugin to handle more recent ffmpeg versions properly.
fix somewhat recent audio streaming bug with openal output.
fix sleep+abort qc builtins.
gltf2 plugin will now work better with blenders no-material files.
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5598 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
Try to mimic dp's console background cvars, so we don't need to add so many files to run xonotic properly.
Don't bother trying to recognised xonotic automatically for now, it won't work well without extra fmf stuff anyway.
Try to fix up rotated 'wrbrushes' stuff. Untested.
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5592 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
Change openal usage to try to be more conformant to spec (should only be an issue for less mature openal implementations though).
Added a developer warning if fog is oversaturated.
Fix crash when loading a game with an animated texture in view... yes, weird.
Support big-endian ktx files.
Added some wrath builtins.
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5588 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
Change revision displays, use the SVN commit date instead of using __DATE__ (when there's no local changes). This should allow reproducible builds.
Added s_al_disable cvar, to block openal and all the various problems people have had with it, without having to name an explicit fallback (which would vary by system).
Add mastervolume cvar (for ss).
Add r_shadows 2 (aka fake shadows - for ss).
Add scr_loadingscreen_aspect -1 setting, to disable levelshots entirely, also disables the progress bar (for ss).
Better support for some effectinfo hacks (for ss).
Added dpcompat_nocsqcwarnings (because of lazy+buggy mods like ss).
Rework the dpcsqc versions of project+unproject builtins for better compat (for ss).
Added dpcompat_csqcinputeventtypes to block unexpected csqc input events (for ss).
Better compat with DP's loadfont console command (for ss).
Added dpcompat_smallerfonts cvar to replicate a DP bug (for ss).
Detect dp's m_draw extension, to work around it (for ss).
Cvar dpcompat_ignoremodificationtimes added. A value of 0 favour the most recently modified file, 1 will use DP-like alphabetically sorted preferences (for ss).
loadfont builtin can now accept outline=1 in the sizes arg for slightly more readable fonts.
Fix bbox calcs for rotated entities, fix needed for r_ignorenetpvs 0.
Hackily parse emoji.json to provide 💩 etc suggestions.
Skip prediction entirely when there's no local entity info. This fixes stair-smoothing in xonotic.
screenshot_cubemap will now capture half-float images when saving to ktx or dds files.
Fix support for xcf files larger than 4gb, mostly to avoid compiler warnings.
Fixed size of gfx/loading.lmp when replacement textures are used.
Added mipmap support for rg8 and l8a8 textures.
r_hdr_framebuffer cvar updated to support format names instead of random negative numbers. Description updated to name some interesting ones.
Perform autoupdate _checks_ ONLY with explicit user confirmation (actual updating already needed user confirmation, but this extra step should reduce the chances of us getting wrongly accused of exfiltrating user data if we're run in a sandbox - we ONLY ever included the updating engine's version in the checks, though there's nothing we can do to avoid sending the user's router's IP).
Removed the 'summon satan all over your harddrive' quit message, in case paranoid security researchers are idiots and don't bother doing actual research.
Removed the triptohell.info and fte.triptohell.info certificates, they really need to stop being self-signed. The updates domain is still self-signed for autoupdates.
Video drivers are now able to report supported video resolutions, visible to menuqc. Currently only works with SDL2 builds.
Added setmousepos builtin. Should work with glx+win32 build.
VF_SKYROOM_CAMERA can now accept an extra two args, setviewprop(VF_SKYROOM_CAMERA, org, axis, degrees).
Removed v_skyroom_origin+v_skyroom_orientation cvars in favour just v_skyroom, which should make it behave more like the 'fog' command (used when csqc isn't overriding).
Added R_EndPolygonRibbon builtin to make it faster+easier to generate textured ribbon/cable/etc wide lines (for TW).
sdl: Fix up sys_sdl.c's file enumeration to support wildcards in directories.
edit command now displays end1.bin/end2.bin correctly, because we can.
Finally add support for f_modified - though ruleset_allow_larger_models and ruleset_allow_overlong_sounds generally make it redundant.
Fix threading race condition in sha1 lookups.
Updated f_ruleset to include the same extra flags reported by ezquake.
A mod's default.fmf file can now contain an eg 'mainconfig config.cfg' line (to explicitly set the main config saved with cfg_save_auto 1 etc).
fmf: basegame steam:GameName/GameDir can be used to try to load a mod directory from an installed steam game. The resulting gamedir will be read-only.
HOMEDIR CHANGE: use homedirs only if the basedir cannot be written or a homedir already exists, which should further reduce the probability of microsoft randomly uploading our data to their cloud (but mostly because its annoying to never know where your data is written).
Fixed buf_cvarlist, should work in xonotic now, and without segfaults.
Added an extra arg to URI_Get_Callback calls - the response size, also changed the tempstring to contain all bytes of the response, you need to be careful about nulls though.
Try to work around nvidia's forced-panning bug on x11 when changing video modes. This might screw with other programs.
sdl: support custom icons.
sdl: support choosing a specific display.
Added some documentation to menuqc builtins.
menusys: use outlines for slightly more readable fonts.
menusys: switch vid_width and vid_height combos into a single video mode combo to set both according to reported video modes.

Changed how cubemaps are held in memory, making all images basically just 3d textures.
Don't start up at all if no game data is found.
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5570 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
Added a couple extra pixel formats to the dds loader.
Format conversions are handled via a table. Additional conversions added.

Try to fix problems caused by (auto)save's screenshots
Added code to allow falling back on stbi for when libpng/libjpeg are not compiled it, at eukara's request.
Handle .exr image files as suggested by eukara, when the appropriate library is available.
Fix mipmaps etc for half-float files.
Enable support for stbi's special gif loader, loading gifs as an 2darray texture.
Add code for threading the qcvm's tempstring recycling, disabled due to paranoia but does otherwise help xonotic perf (at the cost of extra ram).
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5548 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
Add cl_lerp_driftbias and cl_lerp_driftfrac cvars, to tweak drifting. changed defaults to try to reduce clamping.
Implement ladders with nq player physics.
Fix submodel contents with nq player physics.
Implemented drawrotpic_dp for compat (incompatible with fte's earlier implementation)
Added con_textfont cvar to set fonts without uglifying menuqc/csqc drawstrings that don't specify explicit fonts.
Enemycolor and teamcolor are now true cvars, which means they now work with seta.
Move the homedir from CSIDL_PERSONAL to CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA, because microsoft apparently scrape all CSIDL_PERSONAL data for upload to their servers, because they don't understand 'personal'. Will still use the old homedir if it exists.
Pack signon data without wasting so much, primarily to allow abusive mods to spew larger individual signon messages (hurrah for packet fragmentation).
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5546 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
Updated networking for these extra lightstyles.
LMSTYLES[16] bspx lumps now also infer the number of styles per face, allowing for up to 16 styles per face.
Support a few more pixel formats in dds files.
Allow r_lightmap_format to be changed instantly.
Remove physics_bullet_enable cvar, as its inferred by whether the plugin is enabled or not.
git-svn-id: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/fteqw/code/trunk@5540 fc73d0e0-1445-4013-8a0c-d673dee63da5
support RLE+luminance+alpha tga files.
support half-float tga files.
recognise hdr astc images.
added appropriate fallbacks for astc support.
load mip-less .astc files (mostly just for debugging stuff).
allow packages to warn about required engine/gpu features.
catch when stdin flags get changed to blocking by external libraries, to avoid fatal stalls.
basic support for .mdx files (kingpin models)
sort packages loaded via wildcards, by datetime then name, to avoid random ordering from certain filesystems.

merged engine menus, native menus, game menus, plugin menus into a single layered menu interface, simplifying all the special-case input.
engine confirmation prompts can now show regardless of underlaying menus, including above the console.
skeletal formats can now provide their own way to build bones, for variable per-bone keyframes/interpolation methods/etc (used by gltf2).
updated various plugins for the new api.
removed qvm makefiles/scripts.

Fix recent sizeof(void) error.
Fix crashes from 0-byte lit files (and a few other related bugs that noone else noticed yet).
r_loadlit 3 now generates e5bgr9 .lit format (for over-over-bright). Also supports world.light for minlight values, now also uses super-sampling (slower but nicer).
Additionally disable PEXT_TRANS in the FortressOne fork of ezQuake (sidestepping its inherited bugs).
Fix q3's sprites getting horizontally flipped.

Use anisotropic filtering in more fps_presets.
Fix significant fps loss when using the modelviewer.
First attempt at automatic LOD (supported for md3s and extended-iqms for now).

Make sure q2's skyaxis/skyrotate stuff actually works properly on skyboxes.
Add a cvar to spin skyrooms too (separate from skyboxes, allowing for double spins though probably only one will be useful).
Fix win32+reversedns issue.
Fix a splitscreen networking bug.

vulkan: fixed msaa
vulkan: fixed some validation errors
input: fixed bug with mwheel etc failing to register
screenshot_360: default to vid width/height instead of assuming a megascreeny
images: reworked Image_ResampleTexture to handle image formats in a more generic way
console: toggle command now accepts two args to toggle the cvar between
skyrooms: fixed a couple of bugs.
x11-egl: should actually work now
wayland: fixed up some omissions. still needs more work but should at least be somewhat tolerable now.
server: be a little more friendly towards ktx
server: added sv_use_dns cvar, to report reverse-dns instead of ip addresses.
