Hehe, I found and fixed that bug about 4 years ago. This map (not surprisingly) is what blew it up:



Nasty little crash, it was.

Oh, here's a video of an older incarnation of this code. But you can at least get a sense for the effect I'm after here:

Yea, I tried requesting 16 to no avail. Was just curious if there was a workaround.

Thanks!

That's right. Just planar projections, clipped to surfaces. It works like this:

When drawing opaque world surfaces, GL_STENCIL_TEST is enabled with GL_ALWAYS and the following stencil function applied for each surface:


glStencilFunc(GL_ALWAYS, R_STENCIL_REF(surf->plane), ~0);


Where R_STENCIL ...

Hi guys,

Thanks for all of the replies. I finally got this working (the projections, anyway). I'm sorting out a few more bugs, but it looks like this will work out pretty well. I'm using LordHavoc's matrix lib, so here's what the projection looks like:


/*

I posted this on SO, but this might actually be the best crowd to run this by. I've calculated an average light direction for my mesh entities, and I'd like to deform their stencil shadows away from the light source. Here's the issue I posted on StackOverflow:

You might want to look at LordHavoc's matrix lib to replace or at least augment the sparse / incomplete / seemingly arbitrary / questionably buggy transform functions included in Quake2:

It works very well; I've never ...

Bump -- any updates on this Electro?

Issues.

I'm really pleased to hear that you'll be including the Quake2 frame sequences. This guy will absolutely be making an appearance as the default model in Quake2World. Truly awesome work, and I commend you on making it available to the entire community.

If I can be perfectly honest, I'm really disappointed with the entire situation. Even if Ender finally restores some ancient, mostly useless backup of the forums from 2005, how long until this happens again? I wish he would pass the domain on to someone who actually has the funding and motivation to ...

I would actually gladly start going to QuakeDev. It's foolish to let such a well-suited resource go to waste.

Yea QuakeDev generally doesn't get much love. It's too bad, it seems considerably more reliable than Quakesrc.

LordHavoc had some explanation as to why Ender let Quakesrc.org expire, but it didn't make a lot of sense to me.

I actually just registered here after Googling Quakesrc (this thread came up). I really miss those forums..
