Large textures
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.
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:

- Ed
- Hm, I didn't notice you had tried 512x512 before and still got a crash. Oh well... "the truth is somewhere completely different". Sorry.
- geyser 11:40, 13 August 2008 (CEST)
- 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. EdT 15:49, 13 August 2008 (CEST)
- 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. --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 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.
- 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 posterEdT 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 --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. EdT 01:01, 22 August 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. --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.
- 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. --Iritscen 04:02, 7 October 2008 (CEST)
- 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 key_config.txt file EdT 04:11, 7 October 2008 (CEST)

BSL functions
- Update on large textures
- Sorry, but we still haven't got a clear idea of what's going on. Ed's patch is correct, yet the crash log indicates that texture data was written on top of other stuff (i.e. outside of its supposed buffer). This probably means there's another texture buffer somewhere, specific to the Mac build. And we haven't tried looking for it yet. --geyser 04:53, 9 October 2008 (CEST)
- Update on projectile awareness
- Sorry, but browsing and patching PowerPC ASM code is not pleasant. There are tricky pointers all over the place, which is why Neo is not too hot for fixing the messy awareness on the Mac (even though the nature of the mess is essentially known). --geyser 04:53, 9 October 2008 (CEST)
- "Finally, some good news"
- Here's a tentative set of in-place patches to enable chr_focus, chr_set_class and chr_location for the Omni engine. A bunch of pointers and strings to edit. I wrote the strings with a fixed-width font, ° standing for the null character, with the old and new strings above one another so you can see what goes where. Make sure you don't mess up with the 2 strings being shifted backwards. --geyser 04:53, 9 October 2008 (CEST)

Thank you for the patches! chr_set_class works!!! chr_focus works!!! chr_location crashes, I included the report on a separate page. Here is the modified engine: http://edt.oni2.net/files/OniTest.zip for your examination. EdT 07:26, 9 October 2008 (CEST)
- Updated the pointer-to-function for chr_location, should work now. Will add weapon_reset later today. Thanks for the crash report (but you should have linked to it ;) ). And I have no idea how you managed to mess up chr_focus the way you did ^_^ --geyser 17:26, 9 October 2008 (CEST)
- How did I mess up chr_focus? When I first tried it, I was able to focus on the new character, but couldn't move him, then I read ssg's script command page and realized I needed the command ai2_takecontrol 1, so once I tried the script on that page, I realized chr_focus worked. EdT 23:35, 9 October 2008 (CEST)
- How did you determine the hex for the pointer to the function? For example the pointer to _SetMainCharacter is 00 04 19 6C EdT 05:47, 13 October 2008 (CEST)
- I didn't. Neo did. You need a disassembling tool for that, and disassembling skills. I never bothered myself. --geyser 14:17, 13 October 2008 (CEST)
OK, Ed, here's a last one that should make your Oni 100% PC-OTA-compatible (I don't remember any other important command that you're missing, will check). Looking forward to massive OTA porting and mission scripting now ;) --geyser 22:14, 9 October 2008 (CEST)
- I settled on ai2_skill_save even though it works OK, because we're running short of commands, so I'd rather use something that I know is a mere commodity than something potentially useful that we haven't figured out yet. --geyser 22:14, 9 October 2008 (CEST)

- geyser, weapon_reset works. I did a quick test of OTA and it runs fine, but its not 100% compatible, since I cannot access the menus, using the function keys. Going to Dev Mode and pressing F9 starts the recording, but the OTA menus do not appear, pressing F3 does not cycle arena. EdT 23:35, 9 October 2008 (CEST)
BSL variables
- The Mac version doesn't have F2/F3 binding. Another patch, maybe? :) Gumby 00:15, 10 October 2008 (CEST)
Variables, darn it. Not sure what to do about them. 61 of them on the Mac. Sure, a few of them are disposable, and maybe a lot more if we get rid of everything we can't live without, but obviously we can never accomodate the 164 extra variables of the PC version: we'll have to make choices as for what we need the most on either side (what we have to keep VS what we need to add). So, sc_bind_f2, sc_bind_f3, co_display (so that OTA can be run in dev mode without messages cluttering up the screen), show_performance (devmode hotkey Ctrl+Shift/Alt+Y)... and then what? fast_mode? draw_every_frame? wp_kickable? chr_big_head_amount? a bunch of camera parameters? li_center_cursor? (oh, and speaking of camera stuff, we probably need to do the gs_fov_set function, too...). I mean, I can't just start disabling perfectly good variables without a good idea of how many I have in store and how many more I'll have to add. So let's brainstorm for a while (although I probably will add the foremost 4 I mentioned above right away...). 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. --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. 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! 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. --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... 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 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. --geyser 01:18, 16 October 2008 (CEST)

- Just curious, why wp_kickable? I have tried, and I cannot figure out what is stopping Konoko from kicking weapons...Gumby 05:36, 16 October 2008 (CEST)
- I'll probably change wp_kickable to something else. wp_kickable allows the AI's to kick or move the weapon that's on the ground, but Konoko or the player cannot. EdT

Mac Daodan
- What's the possibility of making something Daodan-like for the Mac, or placing function calls in code caves? --rossy 11:18, 10 October 2008 (CEST)
- 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 Mach-O files: I haven't looked into that myself. --geyser 18:06, 10 October 2008 (CEST)
