If /sim/menubar/autovisibility/enabled is true, show the menubar when the mouse hits the upper edge of the window and hide the menubar on click outside a pui element.
Incorporated changes to effects file syntax. Changed Till's landmass
to mix in the base terrain texture. Some shader cleanup.
Also, add a GUI control for enabling shaders.
can lead to extreme performance reduction in a relatively short time.)
Let's set the default mode to "off".
Users can turn on the various components of this features according to
their own preferences and those preferences are then autosaved.
- Removes the cloud type re-use code - I think they aren't worth the graphical artefacts that they cause in light of Tim's improvements
- Changes the transparency of the clouds. Previously, the clouds were transparent at 0m distance, opaque at 200m, then gradually more transparent to the fog limits. This meant they were generally quite transparent. Now, they are opaque from 200m to 15km, then become transparent at 20km. A side effect of this is that the current textures could probably benefit from being made slightly transparent to improve the blending of the sprites against each other.
- Replaces simple shader attributes with vectors (this was missed out of the last patch by mistake)
- Includes Yon's Fog update code (Thanks!)
- Fixes a bug since 1.0 where --enable-real-weather-fetch stopped the other weather scenarios from working.
This provides the following enhancements & bug fixes
- Fix the chequer-board bug.
- Add proper cloud coverage function - so scattered clouds are now truly scattered.
- Add real-time control for visibility range.
- Use a limited set of clouds rather than generating a completely new Geode for each cloud. This saves sorting and display time.
- Add controls to Rendering dialog to allow fine-tuning of the number of sprites, cloud visibility and the number of different types of cloud.
- Add some variance to the sort back-off to avoid all clouds being sorted at the same time.
- Pack attributes into vectors for performance
- Re-order the cloud type determination code so that if a cloud layer could either be stratus or cumulus, cumulus is used.
- Lowered the cloud level in the standard cloud configuration slightly so a cumulus layer is generated rather than stratus.
These last two mean that you should see some 3D cumuli if disabling real weather fetch.
My thanks to Yon Uriarte for his help with performance work.
(/sim/rendering/precipitation-gui-enabled) *and* if the aircraft wants it
(/sim/rendering/precipitation-aircraft-enabled). Some aircraft model rain
on the windshield and want to turn rain off for interior views.
- new parameter naming (left/right instead of min/max; signs are ignored)
- fix wrap-around skips
- use regular constructor so as not to confuse people ;-)
If a <view> contains a <limits> block, then a view handler gets attached to
it, which limits head turns to a given range, whereby headings beyond a given
threshold cause an additional sideways movement. This is turned off by default
for now.
distracting blury when viewed from nearly edge on (as runway textures almost always are.) This can be adjusted to individual preferences with the
--texture-filter={0,1,2,4,8,16} command line option.
- Update redout level every frame
- Replace reading of properties every iteration with listeners
- move -onset and -complete properties into a parameters subtree
