* add QualifiedName to VMFunction and allocate these static names from the class data memory arena instead of using FStrings.
* null pointer type checks in the VM added to avoid crash on bad codegen.
- Removed bone manipulation code
- Implemented an index in calculateBones to optimize multi-armature actors
- Moved the bone storage object's creation to RenderModels so that the armature array can be sized there
- Refactored IQM and calculateBones to process TRS at runtime which resolves some of the faulty animations with large rotations. Will also make bone manipulations much easier to do
- MODELSAREATTACHMENTS was basically being applied anyways
- Fixed a crash related to using an animation that never had the vertex buffer drawn because it was never used as a model
- The compile errors should be fixed
- Implemented a way for skeletal models using the MODELSAREATTACHMENTS flag to not upload duplicate bones to the bone buffer
- Implemented Animation parameters for A_ChangeModel
- Made a modeldef flag to treat additional model indices as just attachments, meaning they will use armature data from index 0
- Fixed an issue with A_ChangeModel where generated indices lower than smf frame amounts could not actually generate anything
- Removed redundant AttachAnimationData functions from derived model classes
- Fixed indentation in IQM loader
- Fixed a merging issue in the MD3 FindFrame
- Fixed a formatting issue in FindFrame in Model.h?
This is *not* the right way to reduce function parameter count. The data in question is far easier evaluated at the calling site and passed as a parameter.
- To really take advantage of this function, I thought it would be useful to be able to add additional models if the user wants to. Let's say you got a player model at index 0. Your gun model has the same frames, but you don't want to duplicate the modeldef data. With generator index, you don't need to duplicate the data, just tell generator index to clone frame data from index 0.
- Implemented a little something to check if a negative skin or model index were passed, and prevent modders from pulling that off.
- Made it so when rendering a model, it clones an smf to use so that data isn't overwritten
- Reimplemented the skin index property. This changes the behavior of this index if CMDL_USESURFACESKIN is activated
- Let's fill the holes of serialized data so it can properly be removed instead of leaving undefined behavior behind.
- Added CMDL_HIDEMODEL flag. This makes a model index invisible.
- Made the 2 TArrays into a class called DActorModelData.
- Removed the skinindex and now just uses one index
- Replaced a bunch of nullptr for modelDef checking with NAME_None
- Added some garbage cleanup to A_ChangeModel itself, as well as removing memory of modelData that is no longer needed
- Attempted serialize code, putting up for review
- Made the models and skins arrays TArrays
- The issue I described with models not always reverting to default properly was caused by the fact I was unintentionally overwriting smf data. Now intermediate TArrays store the data before the loop instead of overwriting anything
-Added A_ChangeModelDef
A_ChangeModel(modeldef, modelpath, model, modelindex, skinpath, skin, skinid, flags)
This can change the modeldef, model and skins of an actor.
Currently, modelindex and skinindex accept indices from 0-15.
An actor MUST have a modeldef in order to use this function, either defined from modeldef, or given one through the modeldef parameter. You can pass "" to use the same modeldef. Likewise, passing "" for model or skin will just revert to the default model.
Available flags:
CMDL_WEAPONTOPLAYER - If used on a weapon, this instead change's the model on the player instead.
One issue I am aware of right now is that clearing a model by "" sort of works but is buggy. For now you can just manually set the model back using the names explicitly. However, I am stumped and I think getting more eyes on it would help.
