Add a class to group all renderer related (static) functions.
This allows to have getBestMatchingAvailableType inline in all engines.
The matching code is now shared between all engines but allows
customization for engines needing it (Grim, WME3D).
The new code takes runtime availability of features to select the
best renderer.
It avoid crashes when user choosed OpenGL but GLES2 is used.
Note that since the ConfMan transient domain is cleared when opening
the launcher, this only work when specifying a game on the command
line as well, and only until returning to the launcher.
Apple's desktop operating system was formerly called "Mac OS X" and "OS X", but since 2016 it has been called "macOS" (starting with version 10.12).
Changing across all comments and documentation to use this current terminology, except in cases where the historical versions are explicitly referenced. No code changes are made; we should consider changing those in future PRs.
This new mode is functionally identical to playback mode, however
a new recording file is used to track the actual output of ScummVM.
This feature can be used to update a suite of existing recordings after
a renderer or a timing change.
Create a new flag --enable-windows-console to build with console
output on MinGW. The default behavior will be to enable the console.
The current plan is to continue to offer the users both options for
release builds - ScummVM and ScummVM (noconsole).
Whenever the text console is enabled, Windows console will be added
by default. This is to prevent a situation where ScummVM will not load
any visible debug console on hotkey or error.
This is currently only (partially) implemented for the 16-color Mac
versions of Loom and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. The text is
still drawn in color, since that's rendered separately, but I'm
committing this now while it still works.
- MEC: MetaEngineConnect.
- How do games handle save/load if MetaEngine (detection) is seperate from MetaEngineConnect (engine factory)?
- Most of the changes are quite similiar. ConfMan finds us the relevant MetaEngine, then simply use the new helpers from PluginMan.
- The new helpers will help convert a relevant MetaEngine into the other format or vice versa.
- Once the matching is complete, simply invoke functions by:
plugin->get<MetaEngineConnect>().engineMethod();
- Refer to previous commits to see the new class changes & notes.
