I'm getting inconsistent results. When I tried it yesterday it didn't work, but trying it again today it worked correctly. |
 |
I can definitely reproduce it. Other debugging cvars work properly (e.g. r_showTrace). |

Duzenko, I have assigned it to you because you did most of the changes in renderer, so perhaps you are the most suitable person to check why portals are not rendered. There are many debug visualizations which are broken now (even without SMP). But the one about portals is used regularly by mappers, isn't it? |
 |
Need steps to reproduce. Attached picture shows how r_showportals 1 works for me in Closemouthed Shadows. http://bugs.thedarkmod.com/file_download.php?file_id=519&type=bug |
 |
What I've noticed is that in more confined spaces, like inside a house, the portals are shown, but in more open spaces, like a street or courtyard outside a house, portals are not shown. I can be standing in the street, with no portals painted, and open the door to the house. Step inside and shut the door, and the inside portals appear. It's the reverse when I go from inside to outside. |
|

I tried to make a test map showing what I'd seen, but I couldn't get the portal painting to fail. All I can offer is Mother Rose. It's a small map, with an inside/outside design. There are large visportals outside the Doctor's house. If you start the map and turn on r_showportals, nothing shows up. But if you enter the Dr's house using noclip (it's the house on the right when you walk through the cemetery gate), the inside portals appear. Go back outside, and the portals disappear. Use notarget to keep the patrolling guard from interfering. If you pick the lock on the front door, go inside, shut the door, then open it again, you'll see the outside portals flash on, then off. |

Narrowed it down to portal sky. Might be related to recent change of portal sky = subview. Workaround: g_enablePortalSky 0 |
|
|
I think all subviews are screwing showportals. The problem is that the tool is relying on portal's last view being also the front renderer last view. I will see if I can change from tr.viewCount to current view in backend. |

Revision: 7307 ---- Modified : /trunk/renderer/RenderWorld_portals.cpp |
|
|
Note: this tool is NOT generally compatible with com_smp because it feeds on lastView No. |

Verified working again in Mother Rose. |
|
|
This appears to be semi-buggy still, if I am in the room or visleaf that I want to check the Visportals in they aren't being shown. However if I move some distance away and then look back at that location I can seen them, but even then they randomly appear and disappear. |

@Biker: try this workaround. In your map, instead of using a single ambient_world to cover the entire map, including the skybox, do this instead: 1 - duplicate ambient_world (ambient_world1) and stick ambient_world1 in your skybox. Size it to cover the skybox only. 2 - Move ambient_world into the map and size it so it covers the map, but doesn't cover the skybox. See if that helps. |

Most of the fixes for this are in place in 2.06. SMP is auto-disabled when using this cvar per the no_smp flag in Session.cpp. //nbohr1more: disable SMP for debug render tools if (r_showSurfaceInfo.GetBool() || r_showSilhouette.GetBool() || r_showViewEntitys.GetBool() || r_showEdges.GetBool() || r_showPortals.GetBool() || r_showViewEntitys.GetBool() || r_showShadowCount.GetBool() || r_showLightCount.GetBool() || r_showDepth.GetBool() || r_showTris.GetInteger() > 0 || r_showLights.GetInteger() > 0 ) { no_smp = true; } else { no_smp = false; } Please open a tracker for 2.07 to cover the remaining issues. |
