a79d7ac479
Fixed placement of glare sprite when rendering stars in legacy render paths. Positioning is now consistent with OGL 2.0 path and avoids artifacts caused by glare geometry intersecting the star geometry.
2009-03-20 18:02:14 +00:00
7911c6ddbe
- Implemented consistent behavior for models with no texture coordinates. Fixes 'flickering' of colors on no-texcoord models used in stc files (and in ssc files with a texture override.)

3d66a67f7a
Bug fixes:
...
2557612: sun, planets and orbits disappear. This was caused by bad handling of the selection marker when the camera positioned inside a large DSO (e.g. the Milky Way)

Fixed bug that caused barycenters to be visible as small spheres.
2009-01-09 10:44:11 +00:00
921d694fee
Fixed bugs and improved accuracy of eclipse shadows in OpenGL 2.0 path:
...
- Very faint shadows (where the occulting object appeared much smaller than the sun) were being rendered completely black. This is now fixed.
- Maximum shadow depth and umbra (or antumbra) radius are now accurately calculated for all eclipses
- Extremely faint shadows are culled for performance
2008-12-30 02:20:33 +00:00
8d180b6dbb
Fixed bad assertion in lighting code--off by one error testing for
...
maximum number of lights.
2008-12-04 21:48:04 +00:00
bb9c0a1558
Fixed eclipse rendering bug that was apparent at high zoom factors. The bug was caused by confusion about the origin for light source positions.
2008-11-08 01:52:21 +00:00
cd22f3532d
Fixed uninitialized variable error that was causing the clipping plane to be set incorrectly when rendering some stars.

- Extended localization to all DSO and star names.
2008-10-13 21:10:09 +00:00
9df9f57e94
Fixed compiler error in render.cpp--DeepSkyObject::getBoundingSphereRadius should be getRadius (for now)
2008-10-11 18:40:05 +00:00
9d55c56382
Committed Julien's patch to fix the animation rate of the selection cursor
...
when recording movies.
2008-10-10 22:43:02 +00:00
1f7a51d0ff
Changed behavior of Visible flag slightly. Visible false now means that an object's orbit will not be shown.
2008-10-01 22:50:38 +00:00
78cf8dacb8
Fixed comet rendering bugs: normal calculation was incorrect and generated NaNs.
2008-09-26 22:33:10 +00:00
301a74e16a
Improved selection cursor:
...
- Animation effect to make it easier to notice
- Pointer shown at view border when selection is off screen
- Cursor has different appearance when selection object is occluded
- Cursor doesn't interfere with markers
2008-09-25 18:31:48 +00:00
58a634722c
Implemented NormalizeMesh property for solar system bodies. This property makes it easier to build assemblies from several bodies with mesh geometry.
2008-09-22 21:03:43 +00:00
c46e6c41fd
Implement globular clusters
2008-09-20 14:17:39 +00:00
a12423b5de
Changed label display logic so that the label of a barycenter is shown when
...
it's the center of a planet or dwarf planet system.
2008-09-16 23:40:30 +00:00
44d8eb574f
Don't show labels for DSOs that aren't visible.
2008-09-05 22:36:36 +00:00
def429cacd
Fix for bug 2020938 [Ring location labels are disappearing.] The new location
...
label code was assuming that all labels were on (or very near) the surface of
a body. A one line fix corrects this bad assumption.
2008-08-12 01:02:53 +00:00
93acae93e1
Implemented the visible flag for deep sky objects. The visible attribute may
...
be set either in the dsc object definition or in a celx script.
2008-08-07 05:35:29 +00:00
95855eb55b
Made location symbol colors match label colors when LabelColor is overridden.

- Added camera orientation property to RenderContext, to be used with software
path for point sprites.
- Enabled location label color overrides
2008-07-25 23:31:00 +00:00
41efec9e08
- Added abstract class Geometry; this will permit geometry other than
...
static models to be used for objects.
- Replace body, star, and DSO instances of Model with Geometry
- Renamed ModelManager to GeometryManager
- Fixed a GeometryManager bug that was triggered by multiple uses of a mesh
file with different MeshCenters.
2008-07-23 21:54:53 +00:00
c00a2a0f47
Added rendering of ecliptic line and support for turning it on and off via
...
script.
2008-06-07 01:35:24 +00:00
ace6dfea21
Fixed a bug that caused objects to be incorrectly culled at small fields of view. Changed type of Renderer::cosViewConeAngle from float to double; using single precision floats was causing the value of cosViewConeAngle to be rounded to 1.0, making the view cone effectively just a line.
2008-05-30 06:37:37 +00:00
07627a9a9b
Implemented horizon coordinate grid; changed calls of SkyGrid::setLatitudeUnits to SkyGrid::setLongitudeUnits
2008-05-30 03:19:07 +00:00
d838a9e4d5
Enabled new sky grid code.
2008-05-29 21:52:27 +00:00
0360a3e689
Removed extra debugging output in render.cpp. Add casts to some arguments
...
to min and max function arguments so that the compiler doesn't complain when
we use the STL template versions of these functions instead of macros.
2008-05-22 23:39:13 +00:00
f9975120d9
Location fixes:
...
- Added symbols for locations.
- Fixed visibility calculation for locations on ellipsoidal, non-spherical
bodies.
- Allow location labels to be occluded by foreground objects.
- Added new location types: eruptive center, insula (islands), and
tholus (domical hills and mountains)
2008-05-22 20:30:45 +00:00
ce2a3a3651
Fixed bug that caused markers for solar system bodies to disappear when the
...
marked object became invisible. Markers were not taken into account when
computing the front plane of the nearest depth interval. Also fixed a bug
in the DEBUG_COALESCE code that caused it to crash when enabled.
2008-05-05 22:13:27 +00:00
d97a73a05b
Constified Renderer::getResolution and Renderer::getFaintestAM45deg to fix

compiler errors.
2008-05-01 22:25:20 +00:00
1604d97697
Fixed depth sorting of long/lat labels for planetographic grids.
2008-04-30 18:31:30 +00:00

Added minormoon and dwarfplanet classes.
2008-04-15 18:31:53 +00:00
889046a12d
Removed some redundant calculation in renderer to speed up creation of render lists.
2008-04-05 23:22:39 +00:00
dcb255db2a
Removed renderer debugging code accidentally left in from planetshine patch.
2008-04-03 21:14:42 +00:00
d216a98755
Implemented secondary illumination (e.g. planetshine.) Rewrote much of the code that contructs render lists to make it possible to do compute secondary illumination efficiently. This patch fixes two other bugs. The orbit of barycenters is shown when they have children that are planets, moons, or asteroids. And, an incorrect frame release was fixed in solarsys.cpp.
2008-04-03 17:46:45 +00:00
a26e7a5fbc
Fixed white rect covering window on some win, linux nvidia configs when hdr bloom is enabled.
2008-03-27 15:59:54 +00:00
e59f4b4b54
HDR bloom, adaptive exposure, calibrated nightlights - disabled by default, enable with USE_HDR and HDR_COMPRESS. 4 new vertex programs added.
2008-03-25 00:23:16 +00:00
9303aa6028
Fixed broken rendering of background markers. Markers behind the viewer were
...
being rendered. Added code to cull markers outside the field of view, fixing
the bug and improving performance when lots of markers are enabled.
2008-03-21 23:38:05 +00:00
e4a28ef68a
Implemented more flexible system for reference marks. Reference mark objects lists are maintained instead of simple bitfields, allowing customization of reference mark parameters (e.g. arrow size, planet grid style, etc.) There are three new reference mark types: planetographic grid, spin vector, and body-to-body vector. The Qt4 and Win32 front ends have been updated; Gtk, KDE, and Mac interfaces need to be updated to use the new code for toggling reference marks.
...
This change also includes a fix for two problems with Replace:
- objects were being reordered so that selection with the 1-9 keys no longer worked as expected.
- children of Replaced bodies were being deleted
2008-03-20 21:36:17 +00:00
c7dae56a84
Eliminated the 16k light year distance limit for stars. The limit is increased
...
to 10 million light years, large enough to contain local group of galaxies. It
should be possible to increase this further by simply changing the setting
of STAR_OCTREE_ROOT_SIZE in stardb.cpp, but the performance implications need
to be investigated.
2008-03-15 00:19:27 +00:00
451028f09d
Put all Mac ATI renderers on the point sprite stars blacklist.
2008-03-09 02:43:26 +00:00
b946b1ae3c
Integrated Javier Nieto's changes that permit colors and visibility to be assinged to individual constellations in cel scripts.
2008-02-29 21:43:30 +00:00
7f0e7b12d0
Fixed bug 1828935 (low albedo prevents drawing of child objects) and improved performance of visibility culling code. The new code uses the frame hierarchy introduced with Timelines to cull subtrees based on apparent brightness and position with respect to the view frustum.
2008-02-28 20:04:52 +00:00
eba1b9940c
- Implemented framework for Orbit and RotationModel subclasses to implement their own velocity and angular velocity methods to use instead of numerical differentation. Actual implementation of velocity methods will wait until further discussion on the developers list.
...
- Implemented Timelines for solar system bodies. A timeline allows a body to have different reference frames, orbits, and rotation models over time.
2008-02-21 02:25:48 +00:00
ed9b33dab0
Implemented depth sorting for markers, with option to specify non-occludable
...
markers.
2008-02-13 21:49:53 +00:00
a6cc486542
Rewrote observer class to use 1.5.0 reference frames. The FrameOfReference
...
class is replaced by the new ObserverFrame class, which is a wrapper for
ReferenceFrame. Small changes to a lot of file were necessary, in many cases
simply because the CoordinateSystem enum was moved from astro to
ObserverFrame. This change was primarily a refactoring to make future
development easier and improve performance be eliminating redundant
frame -> universal conversions of the observer position. The one change that
will be apparent to users is the redefinition of the chase and phase lock
frames. Previously, these used the spin axis of the reference object to define
the secondary frame axis. Now, the secondary axis is the position vector in
chase mode, and the velocity vector in phase lock mode.
2008-02-08 21:46:02 +00:00
39041826d8
Fixed problems building with VC++ 9.0 (Visual Studio 2008) Made comparison operators for nested classes member functions so that they work as predicates for STL algorithms. The VC9.0 compiler seems to have stricter argument dependent lookup.
2008-02-04 09:37:55 +00:00
0cda718f63
Added new ssc object flags for visibility, orbit color, and orbit visibility. Added ssc properties for visibility and orbit color, celx methods for all new flags.
2008-02-04 00:17:35 +00:00
9c552f552d
Added ATI X800 to the Mac point sprite blacklist (fixed star glares on X850XT)
2008-02-02 04:52:04 +00:00
b1982a520d
Updated Body class to allow all three ellipsoid axes to be specified independently via SemiAxes property.
2008-02-01 01:37:49 +00:00
ee2ae878cc
Fix for bug 1882282: Star glare clipping problem
...
Depth writes were left set to true after rendering comet tails, resulting in a star glare halos appearing to clip labels. Fixed by removing a glDepthMask(GL_TRUE) that shouldn't have been in the code at all.
2008-01-30 02:52:33 +00:00
48d4d8a8ac
Mac: Due to driver-imposed point sprite size limits, do not use point sprite stars on ATI RV3xx renderers.
2008-01-19 22:31:13 +00:00
4439a6e333
- Adjusted constellation label and boundary fade distance
...
- Fixed incorrect occluding of labels by irregular objects
- Implemented renderer watchers (currently not used, so this change is a noop)

2007-12-28 02:23:23 +00:00
2832a3e275
Removed limit on maximum number of nearby solar systems when rendering. Fixes
...
crashing bug reported by Martin.
2007-12-18 01:54:17 +00:00
23c66a059f
Fixed frame related bug that caused a body to be positioned incorrectly
...
when the star of its orbit frame didn't match the namespace root star.
2007-12-11 21:25:35 +00:00
1d3a1fb865
Re-enabled star coronas.
2007-12-06 23:51:44 +00:00
68eb351b56
Fixed depth sorting of labels for solar system objects. The labels are now
...
correctly ordered with respect to other objects, and there's some special
handling to prevent labels of low-orbiting objects from being partially
occluded.
2007-12-06 17:15:53 +00:00
06493ad2a6
Fixed bug in label rendering with objects named as the empty string.
2007-11-21 18:52:33 +00:00
4ac5f4353e
Added check to skip DSO octree traversal if all DSO renderflags are disabled
2007-11-20 04:28:37 +00:00
55250a8b90
Fixed crash bug with LongLat orbit display (LongLat is deprecated, but older add-ons still use it.)
2007-11-17 05:44:13 +00:00
edc7576e97
Added code to track changes to renderer settings.
2007-11-15 20:08:24 +00:00

2007-11-12 17:35:38 +00:00
baad1b6f26
Fixes for orbit rendering:
...
- Transform and z clip orbit paths on CPU at double precision to avoid jittering, holes,
and other problems caued by single precision arithmetic.
- Use cubic interpolation to smooth sections of orbits that are close to the camera
- Added bounding volume culling for orbits to avoid rendering sections outside
the view frustum.
2007-11-11 01:58:05 +00:00
72e59b8afb
Brightened grid and constellation border colors.
2007-11-08 20:50:37 +00:00
73e3cb81f6
Renderer changes:
...
- Rewrote orbit cache for efficiency, to avoid thrashing when multiple
views are active, and to eliminate unnecessary recalculation of orbits
- Added method to invalid orbit cache
- Cleaned up render list processing by replacing convoluted checks with
a single switch on the new member renderableType
- Always use two digits for minutes in RA labels on equatorial grid
2007-10-25 07:18:53 +00:00
bdc15ebdbe
- Fixed depth sorting code to never use a near plane distance of zero
...
- Added more declination and right ascension labels for celestial grid
2007-10-13 02:22:07 +00:00
1dfdf8ed5e
Set tesselation of comet tails adaptively based on screen sizes. Fixes the obviously polygonal appearance of comets when seen up close without impacting frame rates.
2007-10-11 22:20:53 +00:00
5c79564639
- New label colors. Harcoded constants replaced with settable values.
...
- Fixed missing coordinate markers in equatorial grid
- Corrected depth sorting for stars that cover less than a pixel on screen.
The depth sorting problem was most apparent for pulsar planets, where
the radius of the star was much smaller than the radii of planets in
orbit around the star.
2007-10-11 01:32:04 +00:00
d6681c006e
Centered the constellation labels.
2007-06-25 21:31:40 +00:00
b96258bab9
Added separate flag for star orbit rendering (so star and planet orbits may be toggled independently.)
2007-06-16 04:28:54 +00:00
8efed8353d
Increased the deep sky object octree size (and thus the max draw distance) to 100 Gly.
2007-05-24 17:35:40 +00:00
82b59fef79
- Enabled line smoothing for markers.
2007-05-18 20:31:01 +00:00
825e52669c
Modified depth sorting code for better orbit display:
...
- Avoid setting a near clip plane of zero when only orbit paths are visible. This should fix the disappearing orbits on the Mac version
- Don't render extremely large orbit paths into small depth intervals. This eliminates some clipping artifacts caused by GPU precision limits.
2007-05-17 18:14:12 +00:00
1dd4549a5f
Added slight tuning for labelThresholdMag
2007-05-17 14:16:14 +00:00

Added fade effect for orbits and solar system body labels.
2007-05-14 03:00:26 +00:00
ef9ae9073a
Fix bug that limited resolution of virtual textures on ringed planets. The hack that was in place to prevent too much tessellation of ringed planets is no longer necessary with the new depth sorting code.
2007-05-12 11:19:43 +00:00
9d3fecdb11
Reduced point sprite size by a factor of 2.
2007-04-22 04:53:43 +00:00

Consider parents of parents (and so on . . .) when calculating eclipse shadows.
2007-04-17 17:43:24 +00:00
f833a58ef2
Fixed bug with emissive models.
2007-04-03 18:00:21 +00:00
6454b452d4
Mesh rendering bug fixes and improvements:
...
- Defined a sensible lighting model to use when normals are omitted from a model, which should prevent crashes in the Mac version
- Added support for point sprites in cmod meshes
2007-04-02 16:55:32 +00:00
b4be8570aa
Orbit rendering improvements:
...
- Don't render the Sun's orbit about the SSB (or other aperiodic, inifinite trajectories)
- Changed blend mode for aliased lines to matched antialiased lines
- Changed color of moon orbits
2007-03-05 00:33:28 +00:00

Suppressed 'unused variable' warning on GCC
2007-01-06 00:52:32 +00:00
8948472aee
Fixed emissive textures in pre-OGL2 render paths. The emissive texture was being modulated by the diffuse color, but the diffuse color should really be ignored.
2007-01-05 10:09:59 +00:00
2a16fee060
Modified star rendering (again):
...
- Disabled glare halos for planets.
- Render subpixel planet discs as points in point stars mode
2006-12-28 19:29:42 +00:00
1e2003f733
Ignore phase when culling satellites based on the magnitude of their primary body; this prevents a planet's satellites from disappearing when it approaches a solar transit.
