As part of my work on a VR port, I have been spending some time looking at the Doom3 BFG edition code for opportunities to improve performance. A core concept in BFG is a vastly different vertex cache

Nothing significant. I cleaned up a few things in code, but apart from that the latest executable is still state-of-the-art   Far as I can tell, it runs pretty stable now, so from my side it could be

Working again :D

 

Any recent GLProgs package to test the build?

I have built RelWithDebInfo x64 library for versions 1.18.2, 1.19.0, and 1.19.1. There are here. You can replace the lib "rel" version with any of them, build TDM, and it will produce PDB with symbols for OpenAL. On the other hand, if you want to see the place in debugger, then you will have to download source code and point MSVC to it.

Maybe we should build most of the libraries with debug info to make debugging easier.

P.S. Conan has one major issue: it has steep learning curve. I wish more people try to use it, but understand that it is not trivial.

Now I see "Debug with inlines" as an option.

Isn't it possible to add ALL the 3 OpenAL Soft versions to the project and select one in the build process? So we got 3 possible binaries for x64 and 3 for x86.

Ehm... not directly.

Is it too bad when you copy the wanted version over SVN package, then build, then rename executable? Repeat it three times, and you have three executables, each with its own version of OpenAL.

Can we have a test build with the debug version of OpenAL so that @lowenz can show us where it crashes inside the lib?

All the three libs which I posted have debugging info, so stack trace should show OpenAL function names on crash.

OK, but does @lowenz have the steps explained to use those for his local builds?

Just tell me how to generate the OpenAL32.lib (the needed flags) in MSVC, and I'll move the files in "thirdparty" folder ;)

I build OpenAL.dll by myself but let me know how the .lib must be generated.

 

For now I'll use the .lib posted before ;)

I will need to check that @grayman's bug first

Now that OpenAL issues are gone, here's the situation with the AMD Radeon (got OpenGL cache cleared, of course)

Any console errors for `reloadglslprograms`?

Maybe not the shaders  but decompressing the textures?

That would explain it but raise the obvious question - why do they not load?

So the textures load on nVidia but not on AMD?

1.19.1 is good enough and well tested.

Just set linear resampling by default.

version 8530 (with its GLProgs)

ShadowMaps problem (not present with Stencil) on a Radeon RX 570 (Catalyst 20.1.3) with NPC ! Shadows are.....partial.

Maybe now that the SVN version is complete (GLProgs) it's time to create a related dedicated thread for betatesters?

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
