- I extract pixel data from the resource without using QuickDraw
- Both resource-fork and data-fork .meg files work
Related changes:
- The custom graphics textures are now wrapped in a custom class
- bmp images are loaded if a meg is not found
Incidental changes:
- Various TODO notes
- Fix cScenario::spec_strs skipping several strings and potentially fetching out-of-bound entries
- oopsError now uses string streams instead of sprintf
(PC Editor and Scenario Editor are unaffected by this commit.)
Things removed:
- All references to Carbon and QuickDraw are gone.
- No more Resource Manager; the game no longer relies on old resource files at all
- The old dialog framework (from dlogtool.c, functions usually prefixed with cd_) is no longer used.
- Files that weren't being compiled
- Boost libraries that are now in the C++ library (function, shared_ptr)
- Obsolete build settings
Replacement dependencies:
- Boost Filesystem replaces references to things like FSSpec
- SFML replaces all the QuickDraw code and most window management
- Cocoa replaces AppleEvent management, menu management, and some window management
- I wrote a resource manager interface to mimick the important aspects of the behaviour of the Mac Resource Manager
- I had to rewrite some functions that QuickDraw provided natively, such as clipping regions; not all of these are tested
Things added:
- Every referenced dialog has been converted from a DITL resource into the new XML-based dialog format.
- All referenced STR# resources have been extracted into simple text files
- Now compiles against Mac OSX 10.7 SDK and libc++
- The first item in the Help menu opens the docs on Sylae's website
- It seems all the constants for soundtool vanished somewhere, so I added them back from the original Mac source
Other changes:
- Updated to XCode 4(?) project format
- Added the xcschemes created by XCode 4; I'm not sure how important these are, but they seem like they might be important
- Added document on converting dialogs to the XML format.
- Make string formatting mismatches into errors instead of warnings
- Disable error limit
- Graphics sheets that previously used masking now have alpha transparency
- Converted all graphics sheets to 8-bit PNG
- Trimmed white border from intro image
- Converted dialogs in the resource file have their resource name set to the name of the XML file of the converted version
- Referenced string resources in the resource file have their resource name set to the name of the text file of the extracted version
- Add the black-and-white patterns from the PAT resources to the pixpats.png; at least one of them is used somewhere in the game
- Recreated the menu.xib as a Cocoa xib file instead of a Carbon xib file
- Disable GNU C++ extensions; maybe this'll make it easier to compile with cl.exe later
- Add marks to the enormous handle_action function to make it easier to navigate\
- A build step to validate the XML dialogs using xmllint (doesn't quite work properly yet but does at least catch dialogs that are not well-formed)- Fix a lot of warnings about assigning string constants to non-const char pointers
- Fixed the file and application icons (which had somehow become corrupted at some point)
- Lots of additional functions in the custom location and rectangle classes, including implicit conversion to and from SFML rects and vectors; also they now store coordinates as int instead of char
- A new enum for encounter note types
- Much tweaking of the encounter note recording mechanisms
- To ease porting, I added a simple function that converts from classic Mac ticks (about 1/60 of a second) to the SFML time type
- Python script to convert STR# resources to txt files, replacing newlines with vertical bars
- Extracted the Mac font (Dungeon Bold) from the resource file and also added the Windows font (MaidenWord)
XML Dialog Framework changes:
- Remove the static initialization object in favour of manually calling cDialog::init()
- {set,get}Format() no longer used for colour; there's a dedicated {set,get}Colour() instead
- draw() methods unprotected in the control classes so that controls can be drawn in the main window
- There's no longer a friend relationship between the dialogs and the controls
- Fixed buttons duplicating the "depressed" boolean
- Buttons now properly offset the label for tiny and push buttons, and for LEDs
- Buttons no longer assume that either none or both of "width" and "height" are given in the XML
- Add {get,set}BtnType() to cButton
- cLedGroup now overrides handleClick(), which has also been made virtual; this was necessary for LEDs within a group to properly hilite while being clicked
- Add addChoice() to cLedGroup to insert additional LED choices
- Moved the key enums and cKey to a separate file
- Add a method to get a control's attached key
- Add methods to get and set a control's rect and position
- Controls can now directly take a window as a parent rather than a dialog
- Add addLabelFor() method to cDialog which adds a static text control as a label for another control
- Remove hack for storing a dialog result of arbitrary type in favour of boost::any
- Add method to get default text colour for a dialog
- Add method to get a dialog's rect
- Add method to add the same event handler to multiple controls in a dialog
- Add concept of default button to dialogs
- Add enum for text field type (currently either number or text)
- Implement the text field without use of native controls, including somewhat decent text input and a flashing insertion point
- cPict no longer stores references to every sheet; it fetches them as needed from the resource manager
- The many draw functions in cPict are no longer static, since they need to access the window containing the pict (before they could only be static due to QuickDraw's global state)
- Add setPict() without a type argument to change the graphic without changing the type, which is a common operation
- Add a scrollbar control; the specifics aren't implemented yet
- Change signature of the record callback for cStrDlog; it will no longer be passed the strings
- Publicize the no-button constructor of cChoiceDlog; it'll assume "okay" is the only button
- Add operator-> to cPictChoice for accessing the underlying dialog
- Add constructor to cPictChoice that takes a starting and ending pic num
- Remove err parameter from giveError
- Many more keys handled, plus support for catching copy, paste, cut, and select all keyboard shortcuts
- Text input fields take priority, overriding any other keyboard shortcuts in the dialog, but they never catch help (F1), escape, or enter
- Some changes to the format itself:
-> keys go in the "def-key" attribute, but modifiers go in "key-mod"
-> "clickable" is no longer a recognized attribute
-> "title" is now a recognized text size (18pt, even larger than "large" at 12pt)
-> "defbtn" attribute on the root element
Under the current system, it would have failed to be random if two calls
were made during the same msec. It will now throw in the previous rand()
in the new seed, which should prevent duplicates (although the next seed
in the same msec will be predictable, it's not like we need to be
cryptographically secure here)
-Titlebar no longer shows version
-Help->About now shows version number and SVN revision

Previously, when saving a scenario, it wrote uninitialized variables in lieu of the hashed/encrypted values that the original editor used for password checking. (Stored in flag_a, flag_b, etc.) That made it incompatible with earlier editors (such as Super Editor), which expected a password of "0", which is to say, data hashed using 0 as the argument.
This commit just adds the old password code back in, and saving now gives all scenarios a password of "0". Loading behavior is still unchanged.

- Minor adjustements to some random checks (aligned code for to-hit chances, assassinate and lockpicking).
- Fixed a potential buffer overflow of the "delayed specials" queue that could happened with the massive use of stairway nodes in a node chain. Cleaned the handling of "town entry/exit" nodes in general.

- Dying to a trap while attempting to open a container won't display the "get items in container" dialog with no alive character anymore.
- Casting the priest Light spell now updates the surrounding areas automatically (like Light and Long Light mage spells; moving or waiting isn't required anymore).
- Debug and Ghost mode are now turned off when loading a game.
- The shop scrolling bar is now properly cleaned up when loading a game while shopping.
- Items are now automatically combined when identified in a shop. To avoid any loss of information, the game now gives the identified item name in the message window (format : "Your item is identified. (full_item_name)"
- If an "active" character (i.e solo fighting) is incapacitated (AP reduced to 0 because of webs, sleep, paralysis, etc) the rest of the party (if present) is now activated the next turn.
- Entering a space containing the special node number 50 won't "force move" the party anymore.
- Added a compatibility option (mainly testing purpose) : "specials are triggered when on boat".
- The restart option of the death menu now works as intended.
- Finally renamed the "Heal All" monster priest spell from "Full Heal" to "Revive Self". That should prevent any further confusion.
- Using items now always updates the ap counter.
- For the sake of consistency : changed labels "Power Potion" to "Energy Potion" potions in the Alchemy menu.
- Redrawing the screen is now correctly handled by specials in all mode (e.g a special that changes a terrain will correctly redraw the screen, even if it was called by looking or moving).
Scenario Editor :
- Redid the custom pictures drawing implementation : custom pictures should now always appears and redraw (terrain, animated terrains, monsters, items, preset items, ...).
- It is now possible to directly give the "Drain missiles" ability to bows and crossbows (use the "Weapon Ability" menu).

- Various aesthetics fixes (no more buttons cut in half, justified some buttons, etc)
- Clicking the help icon next to the (unused) job button now correctly displays help.
- Redid the implementation of the (new) "check statistic node" (replaces "has enough mage lore") to prevent potential compatibility breaking with legacy scenarios.
- Small change to the (new) "Set town status" (replaces "Make Town Hostile") for the same reason.
- To clarify, renamed the "Dispel spirit" item ability to "Ravage spirit" (as it is, in fact, the spell called by the ability).
- For the same reason, renamed the monster spell "Heal All" to "Full Heal", as it isn't a mass spell but a powerful (and reliable) self-healing spell for monsters.
- Aligned the sleep immunity on the mac version : Slimes (regardless of the monster number), Stone and Undead types monsters are immuned to sleep.
- Dart throwing now only takes 2 ap for monsters (corrected from invisibility ability).
- Field generating monsters are now immuned to the type of field they generate (corrected from an Exile 3 incomplete transition).
- Rewrote the pending special queue for better events handling (no more potential overflow, entering/exiting town events are now sure to happens)
- Implemented the "No Terrain Animation" option.
- Un/Equipping something while in combat now correctly updates the ap display.
- MOnsters missile abilities now show their correct damage range in description (game and editor).
- Bashing weapons charges (if any) are now correctly shown (as usual, next to the name).
Codewise :
- The game shouldn't check if the item to be equipped is food anymore.
- Replaced lots of number checks by "human-readable" constants (some new).
- Removed some false checks about awaken spell supposed to work as dispel field.
- Fleeing and winning an outdoor battle now call the run_special function with the correct parameter (was reversed, with no consequences, since it's never checked)
- AI doesn't check the monster number, when deciding if the monster should cast a mage spell, anymore.

Classic Blades of Exile :
- Fixed a compatibility breaking issue concerning Show/hide town nodes.
Such nodes work the same way it were (i.e flawed) in legacy scenarios, fixing problems about towns that should appear but don't.
- Petrifying touch ability acts again as Disease touch in legacy scenarios, preventing the "vorpal cockroach" syndrom.
Classic Scenario Editor :
Two new working fields in the Scenario Details dialog :
- Minimum version, which is unused for now (it represents the minimum version of the game that is needed to play the scenario)
- Program Make Version (not to confuse with Scenario Version), which is the version of the scenario "format" to use :
- first number is the major version : set to 1 for legacy scenario, hence forcing legacy compatibility.
Anything higher is "new scenario" format and makes the game use fixed features.
- the two next numbers are unused for now.

Following requests/reports :
Blades of Exile :
*Corrected the Skill and Giant Strength abilities handling so that they actually increase the chances of hitting instead of decreasing it (damages were correctly handled).
*Now trying to enter a blocked space multiple times won't produce a lot of message but add a (xX) suffix to the "blocked:" message (X number of tries to enter the space)
Minor Editor changes :
*When opening a new town or assigning a new town to a town entry on outdoor map, the input field is already selected (extended the basic function for flexibility).
Code-wise :
*Readded legacy monster skill constants in CONSTS.h, to make the original code easier to understand for newcomers.
