Doom 3 engine release and game code

Hmm i seem to have found atleast part of the performance problem, it seems to be related to entity triggers as the game lags somewhat whenever i trigger one.
Strange i didnt touch that code as far as i know :S but maybe its caused by something i done elsewhere ?

I also noticed that sometimes moving close to a wall the viewport gets all screwy and tries to drag the edge of the wall along with me as i move :shock:

Oh hell well the rendering problem is a driver bug in 306.97 :evil:

still trying to figure out what makes entity triggers lag the game like theres no tomorrow.

Short look we where wrong the changes are huge :shock:

no idlib anymore, the renderer looks nothing like the old one either and the vertexcache was totally rewritten.
Edit: idlib is there just overlooked it since the project looks a bit alien compared to the old GPL release.

Nice

one thing we might have to fix also is the missing bink interaction since it seems id used bink for ingame videos none of the terminals showing videos ingame work anymore.
Ill see if i can find an opensource alternative that can play bink videos.

Hmm ffmpeg can open bink or bik files though im not sure which codec it uses.
Edit found it its libavcodec

now we just need an interface since id have removed most of that part as well.

They also removed libfreespace which im a bit curious about since that library is LGPL2 ? its not propriarity it seems.

Interestingly, the shaders are included with this source release - base/renderprogs.

Aye and the backend is a real beauty

damn nice coding there.
Edit: just noticed there backend can convert cg to glsl at runtime

Small whoops on there part it seems one of the changes they had to make to make the source GPL broke the old Doom games that come with it, selecting them from the menu now crashes the engine :S
