76081d6603
Implemented two pass approach for rendering: opaque objects are rendered first, transparent ones second. Subpixel sized objects are also rendered with transparent objects and after orbit paths. This fixes the problem where orbit paths were occluding point sized objects.

Depth sorting and orbit fixes:
...
- Show and highlight orbit of selected object
- Show star orbits
- Remove depth sorting debug spew
- Correctly orient orbit paths when the orbit is referred to the ecliptic rather than the parent body's equator
2006-09-08 05:59:38 +00:00
aa9c6a3c64
- Replaced the old depth sorting algorithm with a new, cleaner, faster, and more robust scheme.
...
- Overhauled orbit path rendering so that orbit paths get correctly depth sorted
2006-09-07 08:08:32 +00:00
9389ea3b78
- Fixed bug in the eclipse shadow test; objects close to the surface of the lit side of a planet were incorrectly rendered with shadows
...
- Added a render flag for cloud shadows
- Made the OpenGL 2.0 path respect the ring shadow render flag setting
2006-07-26 17:21:23 +00:00
4fa5c3475f
Enabled new star rendering path as an option--uses point sprite extension, new glare textures (gaussian), and dynamic star labeling.
2006-03-08 18:29:10 +00:00

f5f14ee5ab
Render orbits paths in multiple passes so that they are drawn correctly when they appear in front of a planet or other body (another Joseph Wang fix)
2005-07-25 16:38:09 +00:00
ae7095edd7
Added i18nName to the Asterism class and a renderer label flag to display
...
localized names of constellations.
Removed some redundant calls to gettext when rendering labels
Added KDE menu entry and preference to toggle I18nConstellationLabels
2005-07-21 22:35:18 +00:00
57ff878447
Added separate render and label flags for the various types of deep sky objects. This will break some scripts and cel:// URLs that relied on the 'show galaxies' flag to also show nebulae, but this is the inescapable cost of moving to a more flexible set of render settings.
2005-02-11 06:09:37 +00:00
384e3ca8b7
Fixed lighting bug that occurred when multiple solar systems were rendered. Solar system centric light source positions from the wrong solar system were being used, resulting in completely incorrect illumination.
2004-11-11 09:41:51 +00:00
d76044133a
Implemented shadows on rings for GLSL render path.

- Made orbit path rendering work for multistar systems
...
- Added foundations of multiple light source rendering
2004-10-04 06:35:33 +00:00
304c984e62
Implemented complex star systems:
...
- Barycenters may be defined in .stc files; star orbits may be defined with respect to a fixed or moving barycenter
- Eliminated BarycenterIsOrigin flag; barycenters are a more general solution
- Previously, just the closest solar system was rendered; changed renderer to show planets for all solar systems visible
- Added automatic star catalog number generation, so stars can be defined with just a name. Some futher work required to make these stars work correctly in cel:// URLS.
2004-10-02 10:44:49 +00:00
12d827d29e
Implemented StarDetails class which contains information that was formerly in StellarClass. Stars may have custom details with orbits, textures, meshes and other extended information.
2004-09-20 03:27:50 +00:00
35c0798aac
Fixed longstanding bug where two objects having overlapping bounding spheres would get incorrectly rendered, with one completely in front of the other.
2004-06-26 08:22:20 +00:00
8fd1d6ff26
Implemented an option to display just the portion of object's trajectory that it has travelled as of the current time. Currently, there is no keystroke bound to toggle this option on and off; it can only be enabled from scripts (.cel and .celx)
2004-06-01 07:27:17 +00:00

Depth sort labels for solar system objects so that they're correctly occluded.

- Support new Celestia mesh format (ASCII-only right now)
2004-02-17 09:58:52 +00:00
e3a3e5c0be
Fixed two bugs in location visibility calculation: locations behind the camera were sometimes rendered anyway, and labels were being shown for locations still below the horizon.
2003-08-01 06:32:43 +00:00
dcfc3e56db
Added star styles: normal fuzzy points, points, and scaled discs. Added orbit mask separate from the show all orbits bit of renderFlags. Vary color of orbits based on object class.
2003-07-08 15:31:34 +00:00
022ee7fc44
Improved orbit rendering. Orbits may be turned on and off separately for each object class. Sampled trajectories are now rendered completely and with the extra 'loop' segment omitted,

New and improved atmosphere rendering code
2003-05-26 02:27:27 +00:00
1cc1c5a5a1
Made time a property of the observer instead of the simulation. Added get/setSyncTime method to Simulation. By default, it's on, so time changes are broadcast to all observers. Currently, there's no UI support for disabling sync time.
2003-02-22 06:49:37 +00:00
aa22a3ecd9
Added getGLContext public method
2003-02-19 23:25:26 +00:00
