- attempt at reducing loading times on the PSP: I merged a few graphics files together, removed some unused calls from the initialization functions, and moved some other ones to have a more lazy approach. The PSP version remains fairly slow in some parts (especially loading, but also entering the shop, or starting a new game), so I will try to reduce file access as much as possible in the days to come. Not a release blocker IMO though, but I4d sure love if it were faster.
- uppercased "Track1.mp3" to be in line with the actual filename. Most likely this had been broken forever on case-sensitive OSes
- I removed costly calls from the textscroller. I believe it wasn't very useful in its previous state. Now it's only "advertising" for unlockable stuff, which I think is ok (and allows to refresh it every time the menu is loaded)
- As a counterpart, added a "% complete" progress bar in the menu, something I wanted to add a while ago.
-- zipFS has several limitations...
--- in a general way, seekg doesn't work... so getting a file's size needs to be done through JFileSystem.
--- getLine on files open with zipFS doesn't work so great. Not sure if it is a normal issue because files are open in binary or not... JFileSystem therefore offers a "readIntoString" function that needs to be used instead of the usual "getline" technique. However getLine can then be used on a stream connected to the string.
-- tested on Windows and PSP, I also made sure android still works, but haven't tested zip support on Android.
-- I tried to maintain backwards compatibility, but this might break on some platforms, if I broke some platforms and you can't find a way to fix them, please contact me and we'll figure something out
-- This removes wagic::ifstream. I didn't reimplement the securities that were involved in this, apologies for that. Might be useful to reimplement such securities in JFileSystem
-- I haven't tested options/profiles in a deep way, it is possible I broke that.
-- The problem was that the previous fix for keybindings actually fixed dead code for the PSP version... the real call to Defaultbindings was still happening in JGE's code...so the fix made the call twice.
-- Note: shouldn't we use ResetBindings instead of JGECreateDefaultBindings? The former resets the bindings before assigning the default ones...
The problem was, the game would initialize first, reading the
keybindings from the configuration, and THEN set up the default key
bindings.
I think this affects only PSP, X, SDL and Qt. A quick scan of the
windows version code looks to me that the order is correct and the
problem should not exist, but I may be mistaken. The iPhone version
looks to me like it has no keybindings at all, though the call is
there ; I put the call in the right order so that the problem does
not happen in the future if we implement some key bindings for it.
If someone can check for windows...
- JGE updates : main accepts argv/argc. Compilation variables for MP3 and Network support
- Minor fix in Wagic (potentially fixes crashes when using activated abilities several times in onr turn. Couldn't reproduce the issue)
- fixed bugs introduced in revision 2034 (Giant Growth)
- Extended Story mode xml: much easier to write basic thing, font selection, possibility to position answers, answers now in correct order
- moved story in the menu because it is not major for now
- fix issue 392 (broken tests)
- Fix a bunch of memory leaks (guys please be careful!)
- Added Logging facility in JGE
- HBL Compatibility (cleaned up some code with MP3 in JGE)
- Added "winGame" ability. Currently used mostly by the story mode, but some cards could probably need it too
- Improved story mode and uncommented it from the source.
-- The current campaign is of course very basic, anybody who wants to improve it or create other ones feel free to do so
-- TODO (short term): save progress, rewards system, improve tutorial campaign
-- I'll talk a bit more about this on the forums/email after a night of sleep
* Some cosmetic cleanup.
* Have the unix version report analog control the same way the
windows version does.
* Move back Run() into JGE::Run(). The code for ::Run() is still
inside main.cpp.
- This fixes the "blinking screen problem", issue 341. I think.
- I have no idea WHY it does, but it's better than not fixing it.
- Run() would be better in ::Run() in main.cpp than in JGE, should
be moved back when we know more about the problem.
-more JGE cleanup
-removed calls to BindTexture that were made out of the Render methods. Please let me know if this has side effects (and let's discuss it in that case)
-Still no luck with the purple screen bug :(
