Based on existing code that was still around from an old(not working)
implementation.
Supports basic control from trigger scirpts (queue, start and stop
camera paths) and works in multiplayer.
This was SVN commit r17594.
First, do a ray intersection test with the bounding-sphere for all
entities on the map and then check the more detailed selection shape for
the remaining candidates. Do checks that require component lookups after
the ray intersection tests because these are relatively expensive.
The old method for figuring out which entities are below the mouse
cursor was incorrect because it does a 2D check to filter out the first
candidates which can lead to incorrect results with lower camera angles
and high buildings or buildings with a large footprint. Such problems
were avoided with quite a large radius for this 2D test and resulted in
a large number of candiate entities after this first test (200-500).
Also rename PickEntitiesAtPoint to PickEntityAtPoint and make it return
only one (the closest) match.
I've tested performance with the tracelogger by starting a map and then
moving the mouse in circles for one minute. The results were relatively
stable. I've compared the total time percentage of input.js:836, which
spends nearly all of the time in PickEntityAtPoint.
Ardennes Forest - Normal size: Original: 41.46% Patched: 31.6%
Ardennes Forest - Giant size: Original: 40.59% Patched: 51.55%
As we see, it's faster on normal map sizes but slower on giant maps with
a lot of entities.
This approach can be further improved with some kind of spatial
subdivision for the culling (like an octree), which would help the unit
renderer too. This way it should be possible to make it faster (and
still correct) on all map sizes and with a large total numbers of
entities.
This was SVN commit r16098.
Do some intersection tests on the CPU so that the silhouette render
passes only have to draw models/patches that might actually contribute
to silhouettes, saving the CPU and GPU cost of rendering more objects
than necessary.
This was SVN commit r15483.
Previously we had a single culling frustum based on the main camera, and
any object outside the frustum would never get rendered, even if it
should actually contribute to shadows or reflections/refractions. This
caused ugly pop-in effects in the shadows and reflections while
scrolling.
Extend the renderer to support multiple cull groups, each with a
separate frustum and with separate lists of submitted objects, so that
shadows and reflections will render the correctly culled sets of
objects.
Update the shadow map generation to compute the (hopefully) correct
bounds and matrices for this new scheme.
Include terrain patches in the shadow bounds, so hills can cast shadows
correctly.
Remove the code that tried to render objects slightly outside the camera
frustum in order to reduce the pop-in effect, since that was a
workaround for the lack of a proper fix.
Remove the model/patch filtering code, which was used to cull objects
that were in the normal camera frustum but should be excluded from
reflections/refractions, since that's redundant now too.
Inline DistanceToPlane to save a few hundred usecs per frame inside
CCmpUnitRenderer::RenderSubmit.
Fixes#504, #579.
This was SVN commit r15445.
BoundingSphere is similar to a bounding box, but more spherical.
SOverlaySphere is useful for visualising BoundingSphere (it's quite
inefficient and should only be used for debug functionality).
Normalise the camera frustum clipping planes, so that IsSphereVisible
gives the correct result.
This was SVN commit r15261.
Because it was historically grown, we have some duplicated code for
converting script types to native types.
This patch removes the file JSConversions.cpp and moves some code to
ScriptConversions.cpp.
The places using JSConversions.cpp are changed to use the
ScriptInterface's conversion functions in ScriptConversions.cpp.
I also removed JSInterface_Vector3D because it had additional
requirements to the conversion code that no other code has and because
it's currently not used. I think it doesn't make sense to maintain code
just because it could possibly be used again later.

On MSVC, casting i32 to i64 then multiplying gets compiled into a call
to __allmul, which is slow. Use the __emul intrinsic instead.

This reduces the cost of ComputeShortPath by about 50% (testing AI vs AI

the old debug_assert always ran and tested the expression, which slows
down release builds. wrapping them in #ifndef NDEBUG is clumsy. the new
ASSERT behaves like assert and ENSURE like the old debug_assert. Let's
change any time-critical but not-super-important ENSURE to ASSERT to
speed up release builds. (already done in bits.h and unique_range.h)

This was SVN commit r7170.
this snowballed into a massive search+destroy of the hodgepodge of
mostly equivalent types we had in use (int, uint, unsigned, unsigned
int, i32, u32, ulong, uintN).
it is more efficient to use 64-bit types in 64-bit mode, so the
preferred default is size_t (for anything remotely resembling a size or
index). tile coordinates are ssize_t to allow more efficient conversion
to/from floating point. flags are int because we almost never need more
than 15 distinct bits, bit test/set is not slower and int is fastest to
type. finally, some data that is pretty much directly passed to OpenGL
is now typed accordingly.
after several hours, the code now requires fewer casts and less
guesswork.
other changes:
- unit and player IDs now have an "invalid id" constant in the
respective class to avoid casting and -1
- fix some endian/64-bit bugs in the map (un)packing. added a
convenience function to write/read a size_t.
- ia32: change CPUID interface to allow passing in ecx (required for
cache topology detection, which I need at work). remove some unneeded
functions from asm, replace with intrinsics where possible.
