Re: last version of C::B Advanced

hmm a recent change has reverted the path behaviour of the msys2 mingw-w64 compilers to the standard used by mingw.org while most things still builds with this change i discovered that atleast python 2 and 3 are non to happy with this as they expect the system headers to be located in the <arch>-w64...

Re: last version of C::B Advanced

Since im now doing active work on msys2 i can tell that we added the clang compilers from martin storsjo and that they now build natively using msys2 as shell. these are now less geared towards cross compiling but more toward native windows builds, they are also able to build a huge set of the packa...

Re: win10 1903 problems

earlier versions are to my knowledge not affected :smile: If your monitor comes with a specific driver it should not be affected either, my problem stems from using a HD TV as monitor, sadly there are no specific drivers for it so windows just installs a generic one. But it installs the wrong one on...

Re: win10 1903 problems

Oh it is not gamma failing to reset, it is completely broken due to win 10 not correctly detecting the monitor. It installs a driver for the monitor that breaks all gamma ramp and color space manipulations because the driver reports that the monitor is not capable of those (EDID fail). I noticed whi...

Re: What are you working on?

Its ok as such, but does not have any packet compression so it might not fare to well with large complicated maps.
Definatly something that could do with an update.

Re: What are you working on?

Though im not as active anymore, i have done some work on idtech 4. Im using code pieces of darkmod to update the old code to more modern standards like AVX and AVX2 SSE* intrinsics, and im using a correct floating point mask for setting precision for both x87 and SSE codepaths. The SMP changes from...

win10 1903 problems

Hey peeps. Well i got updated to 1903 and immediatly ran into a problem with opengl games like Doom3. Setting gamma in game or modifying color profiles in windows no longer worked, and things looked a bit strange compared to the previous version. Took me a while to hunt down what caused this and it ...

Re: Revelation Test

Hmm seems to be mirrors acting up as i noticed it only happens in places with loads of reflections :shock: Went through the code with a toothcomb and there is no difference to original code so ugh... Then i tried with an unmodified Doom3 and it still happens, so this seems to be something caused by ...

Re: Revelation Test

Refined the thread exit code a bit so that it can newer exit a thread unless the handle is closed. Running into a rather bizarre problem with mods that use sikkmods shaders, at first i thought it was caused by something in the hybrid GLSL renderer but reverting it showed the same symptoms. Basically...
