Also code for TextureAtlas and geometry-batching for better performance has been added there. |

| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 01:27, 18 September 2007 (CEST) : threads are working now, and the keepalive message for online games that is sent via http to our masterserver (a php script which just keeps track of running games) is now sent using the threaded http netmessage util, so the game doesn't hang anymore while the connection is established =)

| | | | |
| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 03:08, 17 September 2007 (CEST) : starded playing with boost threads, made 2 threaded utils :
| + | === fastbatch === |
| − | * sending a simple network request and waiting for the answer
| + | |
| − | ** e.g. for loading a php page via http, like for our online-game keep-alive message.
| + | |
| − | * loading a big file to memory
| + | |
| − | Both are i/o operations, so making them threaded prevents the game from hanging.
| + | |
| − | I haven't finished the lua bindings for them and haven't tested them yet, but making them threaded was very easy with boost.
| + | |
| − | I made it so that our code can be compiled without boost and without thread support, in that case they still work, but are blocking operations.

| − | [[User:Hagish|hagish]] 03:11, 16 September 2007 (CEST) : worked on the mission system and improved the ui (mission display, waypoint) a bit. first little kill mission added. you can create the test mission using the F9 key.

| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 12:09, 15 September 2007 (CEST) : we worked a bit on sfz last night, we had to kick the boost::timer as it was very unreliable, (varying second length, depending on wether i move the window partly outside the screeen...) and hagish convinced me to finally look up the SDL code and extract the essential bits for timing and it was easier and shorter (win:1 line, linux:3 lines) than i though, and now we have a good timer that needs no extra lib. | + | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 21:09, 4 January 2008 (CET) : we've been working on a class for grouping the geometry of up large numbers of objects into a single batch, similar to the Ogre::StaticGeometry, this allows better performance at a slightly increased vram cost. |
| − | hagish started redesigning and extending the mission system, things might currently be a bit broken though.
| + | It is a bit more lightweigt and flexible than static geometry, and has been designed to construct the batch fast so it can be used for contructing the batch at runtime, whereas Ogre::StaticGeometry was rather designed to construct the batch while loading a level or similar, so it wasn't really designed for fast construction. |
| − | I improved the file-browser-dialog code a bit, and now you can navigate directories.
| + | Also our batch allows colouring instances via vertex colour, and allows the whole batch to be repositioned and rotated as a whole. The main reason for developing it was to improve performance in iris, but it will probably be useful for things like asteroid fields in sfz as well, and maybe for stuff on planets later as well. |
| − | It's still rather ugly as it is not easy to make scrolling support in our current gui, but it's better than before.
| + | |
| − | Also i cleaned some rather old code in lib.timer.lua, that is now easier with the listener system.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Hagish|hagish]] 16:25, 9 September 2007 (CEST) : Last night i implemented basic rocket support and started enemy groups handling code for kill missions.

| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 00:07, 6 September 2007 (CEST) : i tried adding the stuff from the ogre cellshading demo to sfz, it worked, but looks bad, and does not support textures, only plain color materials. so this won't do, we'll need something completely different if we decide to use a slight celshading effect.

| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 02:30, 4 September 2007 (CEST) : we've now got an ingame bug reporting system : when an error occurs for the first time, you are asked if you want to send in a bug report, you can do so with one click on the SEND button, no copy-pasting needed, and you can see the info that will be sent.

| + | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 16:17, 24 December 2007 (CET) : merry xmas to all who read this =) |
| | + | it's been a bit quiet here lately, we're currently busy working on performance improvements for [http://www.iris2.de/index.php/Dev_Blog iris], but at least some of them might also be interesting for sfz later =) |
| | + | We're experimenting with multitexturing, tilebased terrain, transition masks, and a more dynamic batched geometry class than the Ogre::StaticGeometry, as we need to change the contents at runtime, and want to avoid costly reading mesh data back from VRAM. |
| | + | And since iris and sfz share the lugre lib, both projects benefit from the resulting code improvements and addtitions. |
| | | | |
| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 01:03, 3 September 2007 (CEST) : we now have a master/gamelist-server. when you click "host game" the game is announced on that server, and other players can connect to it, if your firewall/router allows incoming tcp connections on port 6666.

| − | [[User:Hagish|hagish]] 21:09, 2 September 2007 (CEST) : I experimented a bit with ode. Ode itself works quite well and the basics are very easy. I tried to implement a good ode-based ship movement but i experienced problems with the correct roll/pitch of the ships. They did nothing or circled around like crazy. I'll look inti this another time.

| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 02:45, 31 August 2007 (CEST) : not much new code in the past few days, just a few small fixes (just now : hud-target-line should work on all systems) i've been busy finishing something for iris. but a few nice models and interesting discussions in irc and in the forum have happened in the meantime.

| − | | + | [[User:Hagish|hagish]] 13:00, 18 November 2007 (CET) : Last night and the last 2 hours we improved the ship movement. Now we have a non-newton-max-velocity navigation. This not very realistic but far more fun. There are some new weapons too: splitting rockets (nut,star), chain laser, lightning gun |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 00:26, 23 August 2007 (CEST): a few more screenshots with better engine trails, and my first try to import blender models (hagish imported the other models so far). I found exporting/importing is currently very troublesome because i had to rename many things and change filepaths, so i'm thinking about looking into the exporter sourcecode and trying to add an option to automate this in order to make exporting easier.
| + | |
| − | Also the models still have to be rescaled, repositioned and rotated before the can be used correctly ingame, and i think i'll try to make an ingame editor for that, so they can be compared directly to existing ingame models like the spacesuit for a better size-impression, and i can blend in a grid in ingame coordinates this way.
| + | |
| − | It'll be quite a bit of work, but i think it will be well worth it in the long run.

| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 23:12, 19 August 2007 (CEST) hagish and i met this weekend and coded like crazy =)
| + | === weapons and enemygroups === |
| − | * we've replaced the billboard-planets by 3d-ones with textures from the freeorion orion project that were available under cc-by-sa (see README for credits)
| + | |
| − | * hagish added a spaceport menu listing planets and stations
| + | |
| − | * mousepicking is now more accurate and when there are multiple objects under the mouse you can cycle between them by clicking repeatedly
| + | |
| − | * we tested multiplayer networking and solved a few bugs and issues, it works fine in a LAN
| + | |
| − | * we accidentally "discovered" a feature, when you exit a ship while it's autopilot is activated, the autopilot does not switch off, and it continues to not only approach, but to actually FOLLOW the target if it is a moving ship. by repeatedly undocking fighters from the mothership, setting them to follow leaving via spacesuit and re-entering the mothership, we built a little fleet of fighters following us and made a few screenshots
| + | |
| − | * hagish improved a few things in the gui system
| + | |
| − | * you can now "call"/mark targets by pressing strg-t for the rest of the team, they have a red hud-border and can be selected by pressing t
| + | |
| − | * a line marker now helps finding the direction to selected targets that are offscreen
| + | |
| − | * we experimented with engine trails
| + | |
| − | * we built in the gui graphics that ray made for sfz
| + | |
| − | * a few changes in how cargo is handled internally in preparation for a generic container/equipment system
| + | |
| − | * we now have a little cursor
| + | |
| − | * we made a lot of screenshots
| + | |
| | | | |
| | + | [[User:Hagish|hagish]] 19:40, 4 November 2007 (CET) : last night ghouly and i worked a little bit on sfz. he startet to implement the new weapons and i merged the contributed enemygroup patch and started to implement a hero-defense like game mode. |

| | + | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 03:44, 1 November 2007 (CET) hagish and i met today, and we decided to focus on combat. |
| | + | some notes : [[Sfz31.10.2007]] |
| | + | i already started making a few weapon-icons, they're rather simple, but should do for getting started. |
| | | | |
| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 18:27, 15 August 2007 (CEST) : simple delivery missions are now working, e.g. you can earn some extra iron by bringing supplies from earth to mars. still far from actual gameplay fun, but it's a good start.
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | [[User:Hagish|hagish]] 22:42, 14 August 2007 (CEST) : ok, openal should work ok with wav and ogg files in the current svn version. but it sounds a but sloppy (if i use openal with alsa). I also added a random name generator based on this article: http://www.gamedev.net/reference/articles/article2016.asp
| |
| | | | |
| − | [[User:Hagish|hagish]] 21:54, 7 August 2007 (CEST) : added some icons and keybindings to the shipeditor to make using it more comfortable.

| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 00:33, 6 August 2007 (CEST) we're back from dusmania, had a lot of fun, some interesting talks, and saw lots of spacegames this year, but mostly 2d. we also worked a bit on sfz and talked with a few people about it and got lots of positive feedback, which is very motivating =D
| + | http://zwischenwelt.org/svn/sfz/sfz/trunk/data/icon/rn_pd_missile.png |
| − | hagish started experimenting with random generated structures that can be used for plants and lightning effects, and i just finished a geometry generation utility called loft (the green thing, not yet used with hagish data), that can be used later to generate geometry for plants with the data generated by hagishs lib.

| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 11:39, 29 July 2007 (CEST) : we extracted/capsuled all the code shared between sfz, iris2 and other projects and put it into an external lib so we have it in one central place and don't have to merge changes back and forth every time.
| + | |
| − | As the main part of the lib is the lua binding for ogre we decided to call it lugre : http://lugre.schattenkind.net
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 01:11, 28 July 2007 (CEST) : i've been busy with work (and with watching a cool animee) this week, so i didn't find the time to write here...
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Thanks to rookie1 from the freegamer forums it might now be possible to compile and run sfz on a 64 bit linux, but i can't test...
| + | |
| − | He sent in a patch, i added it to trunk, and also fixed a few other things that might be troublesome in 64 bit.
| + | |
| − | see this thread for details : http://freegamer.schattenkind.net/index.php?t=msg&goto=111
| + | |
| − | I also squashed a few bugs, cleaned a few things along the way, and made a new win32 exe, so you might want to run the updater if you were having problems.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | To clear up misunderstandings about the "as long as" in my last post :
| + | |
| − | We will implement some form of spacefolding travelspeed and possibilities to interrupt it, but i think we need to focus on other things first, see this thread for an interesting discussion about the topic : http://freegamer.schattenkind.net/index.php?t=msg&th=11
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | There is a lot of code being shared between iris2 and sfz, and soon also by a third game-project by hagish and ray, so we will probably extract that code into a seperate lib to avoid having to merge new stuff back and forth every time.
| + | |
| − | It's mainly a lua wrapper for the most important ogre parts as well as several utils for networking and similar things.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 02:01, 23 July 2007 (CEST) after thinking a while about space-folding travel and all the things to be considered when implementing it, i came to the conclusion that we don't really need it yet as long as the planets are so close together and not on a realistic scale, and other things like trading and missions are more important right now, and those usually involve traveling to other star systems, so i started a bit with the code for a list of star-systems

| − | | + | |

| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | in the initial setup dialog, choose directx instead of opengl otherwise it crashes for an unknown reason so far.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | it includes an updater.exe to get the latest code changes, and as we are working mainly on the lua code which does not need to be compiled, you can get the latest changes this way even if we don't make a new release for a while.
| + | |
| − | A new binary release will only be needed if there are changes to the c++ code, which are rather rare.
| + | |
| − | Please note that sfz is still work in progress and there isn't any real gameplay yet, just a few things to try out =)
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 02:46, 16 July 2007 (CEST): i successfully compiled and modified the iris updater for sfz, but it is useless until we have win binaries in the svn. i'll try to compile some using the project file by pascal in the next few days.

| + | |
| − | also hagish made a few nice 3d models : a space-suit to avoid billboard troubles, a couch : one of mankinds greatest achievements which should be aboard every starship, and a engine/generator like model that we'll use for various machinery, being able to hue/recolor meshes via lua code sure multiplies the uses for a new mesh :)

| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 19:56, 6 July 2007 (CEST): we're currently working on a "location" system, that enables us to move objects to seperate "dimensions", for example to avoid destroying a fighter-object when it is docking, it is simply moved to a seperate "hangar-dimension".
| + | |
| − | these things can later also be used for walking around inside spaceships (we're also working on generating experimental interior meshes for that) and for wormholes, etc...
| + | |
| − | such a "dimension" has nothing todo with fancy graphics, it's just a logical grouping of objects so coordinate systems can overlap without objects interfering with each other. this isn't quite finished, the hudmarkers and other things still have to be adjusted. the current "hangar dimension" is nothing more than a gray empty space so far =)

| + | |
| − | but there is a funny bug : i did put a check in to ensure that you couldn't enter pirate ships, but i forgot to check if the object to be entered is actually a ship, so now you can enter anything (except pirate-ships) and fly around as an asteroid, as a space-station or even as a wormhole :)

| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 13:54, 15 June 2007 (CEST):
| + | |
| − | After experimenting a bit we decided against making sfz combat based on fast reaction time and dogfight navigation,
| + | |
| − | which quickly leads to frustrating "where is the enemy" problems. Instead weapons won't have to be aimed manually,
| + | |
| − | they'll work like turrets, and if the enemy is in range you will be able to hit him without effort.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The deciding factor in combat will be stuff like weapon ranges
| + | |
| − | and strengths and weaknesses of different weapons against different shield-types,
| + | |
| − | homing missiles and counter-measures, maybe also a bit of energy management.
| + | |
| − | This makes positioning, tactics and equipment a more interesting component.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Therefore a 3rd-person perspective of your own ship will probably be better than 1st person, for getting a better overview.
| + | |
| − | This also fits nicely with the ship-editing features, because if you designed your own ship, you will want to see it =)
| + | |
| − | Another benefit is that this makes it easier to use the mouse for gui stuff during combat,
| + | |
| − | as there is no more need to use the mouse as joy-stick-like aiming tool, like in 1st person.
| + | |
| − | So we can use the mouse for clicking on a target list, display tooltipps over hud-elements,
| + | |
| − | and configure weapons and autopilot maneuvers with a proper gui using the mouse
| + | |
| − | instead of dozens of key-combos like in most 1st-person-joystick space sims.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The massive multiplayer spacegame eve-online also has a similar gui to what we are aiming,
| + | |
| − | I tried it some time ago and it had some interesting gui
| + | |
| − | (ingame web-browser, 3rd person stuff like described above, target lists, cool map)
| + | |
| − | and some nice gameplay elements (frequency crystals for weapons, buildingplans for equipment, most stuff could be crafted, also weapon ranges were very important)
| + | |
| − | but it sufferes from being massive multiplayer and having rpg elements, e.g. you needed skills to do stuff and training a skill takes hours or even days,
| + | |
| − | also death there means you loose equipment that took days to get, so people tend to be rather careful when and what to fight.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | This leads to lots of ressource grinding, which i personally don't like too much, as it eats so much time.
| + | |
| − | By not going massive multiplayer, and focusing on coop instead, we will try to avoid these problems.
| + | |
| − | | + | |

| − | [[User:Ghoulsblade|Ghoulsblade]] 23:44, 11 June 2007 (CEST) code is now online (not trunk, but branches/eihortport)
