Summary0000543: Consider using glReadPixels for lightgem instead of named pipes
DescriptionThe current named pipe solution for the lightgem is messy, and gets broken by certain overenthusiastic firewalls. Investigate the use of glReadPixels to get at the lightgem data instead; this is a slightly cleaner design, but it needs testing to see if there's any performance penalty.

See http://modetwo.net/darkmod/index.php?showtopic=6758

This is extremely low priority, since the current solution is tried, tested, and works 99.999% of the time.
TagsNo tags attached.

Does tracker 2768 make this one obsolete and therefore eligible to be closed?
