Just tested the upgrade for 1024x1024 and Oni crashed. First of all OniSplit works fine with a 1024x1024 targa image, I can import and export.
==Mac Daodan==
:What's the possibility of making something [[wikipedia:DLL_injection#Approaches_on_Unix-like_systems|Daodan-like]] for the Mac, or placing function calls in code caves? --[[User:RossyMiles|rossy]] 11:18, 10 October 2008 (CEST)


When I imported a 1024x1024 image (delorean.tga) I got the level 4 splash screen, but then I got a black screen, I had to force quit Oni.  So no crash report.  Next I did the same image at 512x512, same result, except this time I got Oni's crash report. Here it is:
:Define "code caves"; I'm not sure there's many of those, and we can't go very far with a hackish approach anyway. As for DLL-similar stuff, SFeLi said it was feasible and even relatively easy with [[wikipedia:Mach-O|Mach-O]] files: I haven't looked into that myself. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 18:06, 10 October 2008 (CEST)

==Uppercase letters at the console==
:''Issue still unsolved as of 06:39, 22 October 2008 (CEST)
Hmm, about the Shift key not being 'accessible'... I actually never noticed before that one cannot type capital letters on the command line, and if I did notice it I would have assumed the PC version was the same. So, one point and one question:
*It's not exactly true that the Shift key is not accessible or not recognized, because I can type important characters like the underscore and parentheses. It's merely that uppercase letters cannot be typed.
*Is the lack of access to uppercase letters an issue? This is total news to me, so naturally I am curious as to whether this has been a problem on the Mac side of things that I never knew about. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 03:04, 7 October 2008 (CEST)
 
 
:The PC command line has no major issues: uppercase letters can be entered both on PC and PC demo. There are occasional glitches with autocompletion and some inconsistencies with multithreading (i.e., "fork"ing may not work as expected when launched from the console). Also, the command line is not displayed properly or at all at large resolutions.
:Thanks for the disambiguation about the Shift key. Ed didn't make it clear how exactly it didn't work. Do you confirm that the ''only'' characters that can't be entered are uppercase letters? Also, Ed, how long have your 3 "known issues" been around? Right from the moment when the Dev Mode was unlocked?
:The original variables and functions (preset of scripted) are all lowercase, but team names are capitalized, and many AI names contain uppercase letters as well. So lowercase-only input can be frustrating. The obvious workaround is to use scripts more, so that all command line statements can be lowercase.
::[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 03:36, 7 October 2008 (CEST)
:::Just confirmed it to make sure; only a-z cannot be modified by the Shift key, i.e., become uppercase. All other characters that require Shift can be typed. And thanks for the answer on what uses uppercase, the team names and AI names slipped my mind. I tested that as well, hoping that the Mac would ignore case, but alas; the console indeed does not recognize any team names without the uppercase letters. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 04:02, 7 October 2008 (CEST)
:::Also, I now see that capitals are required to type in animation names, therefore the chr_animate command is essentially unuseable on the Mac Oni console line; however, the command still works from within a BSL script, where caps are recognized. --[[User:Iritscen|iritscen]] 06:01, 7 November 2008 (CET)
::::Iritscen, you beat me to it. The SHIFT key does not work in Dev Mode to enter uppercase letters (I should have been more specific, sorry).  How long have I've known these issues?  The SHIFT key problem was discovered when you, (geyser) asked me to enter some code in the console, I forgot when that happened.  The Window mode issue was known as soon as it was figured out how to run Omni group's version in a window. I'm sure this was mentioned at some point, either here or at OCF. The problems with the Numpad key was known back in Jan 2007 and you suggested using the [[User_talk:EdT|key_config.txt file]] [[User:EdT|EdT]] 04:11, 7 October 2008 (CEST)

==Large textures==
The crash report is now history, but let's clarify the status of the patch at 0x001151C3. Is it irrelevant and can it be reverted?
:0x001151C3 needs to be changed to 0x40 for 1024 textures, reverting to 0x04 or 0x10 results in crashes. Fortunately, I had already changed it to 0x40 prior to the latest patch.[[User:EdT|EdT]] 07:17, 22 October 2008 (CEST)

Cleaning up previous talk, see history if you need reference
#Redeeming cm_barabus, because it looks like it works after all, and could be useful to both scripters and video makers (basically it interpolates the camera until it focuses on a certain character). So, Ed, please revert it.
#Scrapping all 11 ai2_skill_* functions, because their table entries and strings are conveniently grouped. Putting 11 "essentials" there. If you want to tweak shooting skills, use another version ^_^
#Keeping chr_holdkey as chr_location for now; may move it around later ^_^
#Turning ai2_panic into equally useless chr_draw_dot; we may change it later ^_^
#Turning ai2_chump into modder-oriented chr_who; we may change it later ^_^
#Turning ai2_printbnvindex into ui_fill_element; we may change it later ^_^
#For the big continuous patch you probably don't want to go nuts doing it byte by byte like I did, so grab a patched engine [http://geyser.oni2.net/TEMP/omni/OniBSL.zip HERE] and copy the relevant sections over to your backup. I used the big table below to proofread the patch, and we may still need it to check function pointers etc if something doesn't work.

==BSL variables==
:''Unsolved as of 06:39, 22 October 2008 (CEST). Needs a trimmed list of necessary PC vars matched with disposable Mac vars.
Since sc_bind_f2 and sc_bind_f3 won't work, the OTA needs to be rewritten whatever we do. Probably waiting for special anims should be replaced with waiting for hotkeyed variables like fast_mode (Ctrl+Shift/Alt+F), draw_every_frame (Ctrl+Shift/Alt+G), or gs_show_performance (Ctrl+Shift/Alt+Y). If this is done in the randomizer loop, there will actually be fewer contexts pushed than in the current version. There will also be no counterintuitive keypress sequences (F9,F2,F10), no spurious FILM files and no risk of buffer overflow. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 06:39, 22 October 2008 (CEST)
:: Can you give a script example of waiting for hotkeyed variables?  I would like to test it out.  Thanks [[User:EdT|EdT]] 20:45, 28 October 2008 (CET)

That's 33, which is a lot. 25 if we kick out the goofy. 24 if li_center_cursor doesn't work.
===Brainstorming===
Below are two little tables and two big ones. The first table is variables that don't seem to work but probably do, with the special case of '''ai2_boss_battle''' beilng used in [compound]. Then there's a small table of "huh" variables that are almost certainly disposable. Then there are tables (mutually exclusive, but overlapping with the small ones): debug/display things (32 items) and not-likely-to-be-tweaked things (17 items). Those would disempower modders and hackers but wouldn't change much or anything for level logic. 49 variables is a lot, but we have to choose wisely, and may end up having to maintain two versions of the Mac engine, one with debug stuff, the other with stuff that is meant to be used in scripts. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 05:14, 10 October 2008 (CEST)
:I'll start testing the variables and those I find that do not have a visible effect, I'll add to the possibly broken and disposable section. [[User:EdT|EdT]] 07:08, 10 October 2008 (CEST)
::Is it possible to add '''gs_show_ui'''?  That would be useful when taking screenshots or videos without the HUD.  I can maintain 2 versions of the Mac Engine, I think a very small number would need the debug features, but having more PC compatible commands will be more appealing since Mac users will be able to play more scripts. Plus it will make it easier for the script writers since there one script fits all! [[User:EdT|EdT]] 21:53, 10 October 2008 (CEST)
::Ed, you can use '''ui_show_element(left,0)''' and '''ui_show_element(right,0)''' instead of '''gs_show_ui=0'''; and don't forget '''ui_suppress_prompt=0''' and such. The compatibility of scripts, of course, is the main goal. I just wanted to make sure you backed up the versions prior to those rewiring of mine because we ''are'' screwing with the engine in hackish ways and may want to take a few steps back. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 02:01, 11 October 2008 (CEST)
:::Thank you, I did not know about that command, that saves one variable :-) I seem to recall another PC command '''door_ignore_locks''' used in some script, this might be useful... [[User:EdT|EdT]] 05:40, 11 October 2008 (CEST)
::::According to Neo '''sc_bind_f2''', '''sc_bind_f3''' cannot be added because the are strings and neither can '''gs_fov_set''' be added. However, he was able to add '''co_display''' and '''door_ignore_locks''' [[User:EdT|EdT]] 00:38, 16 October 2008 (CEST)
:::::''He'' was able to add them? So he gave you the fish after all? ^_^ If you want to allow me to give you more fish this week-end, please document the new fish in more detail, so that I know what disposable variables I can no longer use. As for gs_fov_set, it's a pity, gonna ask Neo what's the matter with it. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 01:18, 16 October 2008 (CEST)

That's 16, but the last 6 can't be used (marketing_line_off is used and the other 5 are "registered elsewhere"). So, 10.
 
===Summary===
All in all, we apparently have a maximum of 35 disposable variables, and a total of 31 on the wishlist. My suggestion:
:If li_center_cursor works, leave these 4: ai2_spacing_cookies, ai2_spacing_enable, ai2_spacing_weights, ai2_barabbas_run.
:If li_center_cursor doesn't work, leave these 5: ai2_melee_weightcorrection, ai2_spacing_cookies, ai2_spacing_enable, ai2_spacing_weights, ai2_barabbas_run.
:Maybe don't keep anything and add 4 or 5 extras instead, like draw_every_frame_multiple, gs_screen_shot_reduce...
Convert stuff "en masse" (there will be large contiguous blocks in the table, and in the name/description pool as well, although less so).
 
The 3 blocks are as follows:
#ai2_showpaths
#ai2_showgrids
#ai2_showdynamicgrids
#ai2_showpathfindingerrors
#ai2_showconnections
#ai2_showactivationpaths
#ai2_showastar
#ai2_showcombatranges
#ai2_showvision
#ai2_showprediction
#ai2_showtargeting
#ai2_showlasers
#ai2_showlos
#ai2_showprojectiles
#ai2_showfiringspreads
#ai2_showlocalmelee
#ai2_showfights
#ai2_shownames
#ai2_showhealth
#ai2_showjoblocations
#ai2_showlinetochar
#ai2_showsounds
#ai2_printspawn
#ai2_blind
#ai2_deaf
#KEEP DEFINITELY
#ai2_chump_stop
#ai2_stopignoring_count
#ai2_stopignoring_time
#ai2_melee_weightcorrection (keep if no extras and li_center_cursor doesn't work)
#ai2_spacing_enable (keep if no extras)
#ai2_spacing_cookies (keep if no extras)
#ai2_spacing_weights (keep if no extras)
#ai2_barabbas_run (keep if no extras)
#KEEP DEFINITELY
#ai2_showintersections
#ai2_debug_localmovement
#ai2_debug_localpathfinding
#ai2_debug_showsettingIDs
(this does not necessarily correspond to contiguous strings)
 


::Maybe this will be a clue, when using the new hex of 10, I was able to start level 4. Oni only crashed when the delorean (Using the new 512x512 texture) came into view. Previously, with the hex at 40, Oni crashed right after the splash screen. [[User:EdT|EdT]] 15:49, 13 August 2008 (CEST)
And our wishlist is like this:
::I have tested some more on my side and it turned out that the mysterious crash for 1024x1024 textures was some kind of user error (like forgetting to save or something equally stupid). So 1024x1024 works just fine on PC now, and there is thus no similarity between our cases anymore. Also, the crash right after the splashscreen (which one, BTW? intro splashscreen of a level?) seems very suspicious. So, could you please: 1) double-check that you're changing stuff at the right address; 2) let us have a look at the engine after you patched it. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 21:48, 13 August 2008 (CEST)

:::I tried the 512 patch on a fresh unpatched version of Oni.  Same result.  I can start level 4, move around, but when I turn to look at the Delorean, Oni crashes.  I'm using the files you provided with the new M3GM and OBAN files. However, if I change TXMPdelorean to 256x256, no crash.  When I used the previous patch of 40, then Oni would crash after the splash screen for level 4.  Note: in both cases, I had imported the TXMPdelorean file into level4 not level0.  Here is the patched engine: http://edt.oni2.net/files/Oni512.zip [[User:EdT|EdT]] 01:14, 14 August 2008 (CEST)

::::Sorry for the late reply. Let's run a clean experiment on your side while we double-check OMNI's engine:
:::#Try and import another large texture than the DeLorean's (a skybox, a poster, Master Chief, anything) and test this other large texture without involving the DeLorean at all. Make sure that you rule out everything else that may make Oni crash (e.g., an old M3GM).
:::#As for the DeLorean, make sure its M3GM was imported with a recent version of OniSplit: it could be that it suffers from the same issue as the one that used to plague early TRBS import (i.e., it may be missing extra storage space at the end of the TXCA).
::::Let us know if it still crashes for the "clean experiment" (just a texture replaced with a large one). And oh, if it crashes, send us the TXMP, just in case.
:::::[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 15:33, 21 August 2008 (CEST)
::::::hmmm, time for a stupid question, what is the option in OniSplit to create a 512x512 TXMP?  I just tried to import a 512x512 texture, but when I exported that file it was 256x256. I imported these files: http://edt.oni2.net/AE_Files/TXMPAIR_FLOOR002.tga and http://edt.oni2.net/AE_Files/TXMPPOSTER1.tga for the Airport lobby floor and poster[[User:EdT|EdT]] 23:52, 21 August 2008 (CEST)
::::::So you mean that all this time you were in fact letting OniSplit downsample your textures to 256x256? Then I really don't understand what about the texture may have caused the crashes you reported. The option for disabling the auto-downsampling (and thus retaining the native size of your picture) is '''''-large''''', e.g.: '''''OniSplit.exe -create:txmp TXMPcreated -format:bgr32 -large TXMPPOSTER1.tga''''' --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 00:24, 22 August 2008 (CEST)
:::::::No, that's not the case. The first account with the 1024x1024, I used the "-large" option (But today I forgot about that command)  With the Delorean crash I used your TXMP .oni file which was 512x512.  Anyways, now I used the -large option and imported the file TXMPAIR_FLOOR002.tga as brg555.  As Oni was in the process of loading level 4, it crashed.  I replaced that with a 256x256 version, no crash.  Next I imported TXMPPOSTER1.tga as brg32, Oni crashed as it was loading level 4, replaced with 256x256, back to normal.
