Release Cannonball - The Enhanced C++ Outrun Engine

First I load the FBO extension with this function:

bool loadFBOExtension() {
bool fboExtensionAvailable = false;
bool fboFunctionsAvailable = false;

glBindFramebufferOES = null;
glDeleteFramebuffersOES = null;
glGenFramebuffersOES = null;
//glCheckFramebufferStatusOES = null;
glFramebufferTexture2DOES = null;

string extensions = to!string(cast(char *)glGetString(GL_EXTENSIONS));
string extleft = extensions;

while (extleft.length != 0) {
ptrdiff_t delim = indexOf(extleft, ' ');
string extension;
if (delim != -1) {
extension = extleft[0..delim];
extleft = extleft[delim+1..extleft.length];
} else {
extension = extleft;
extleft = extleft[0..0];
}

if (extension == "GL_OES_framebuffer_object") {
fboExtensionAvailable = true;
break;
}
}

if (fboExtensionAvailable) {
glBindFramebufferOES = cast(PFNGLBINDFRAMEBUFFEROESPROC) eglGetProcAddress(toStringz("glBindFramebufferOES"));
glDeleteFramebuffersOES = cast(PFNGLDELETEFRAMEBUFFERSOESPROC) eglGetProcAddress(toStringz("glDeleteFramebuffersOES"));
glGenFramebuffersOES = cast(PFNGLGENFRAMEBUFFERSOESPROC) eglGetProcAddress(toStringz("glGenFramebuffersOES"));
//glCheckFramebufferStatusOES = cast(PFNGLCHECKFRAMEBUFFERSTATUSOESPROC) eglGetProcAddress(toStringz("glCheckFramebufferStatusOES"));
glFramebufferTexture2DOES = cast(PFNGLFRAMEBUFFERTEXTURE2DOESPROC) eglGetProcAddress(toStringz("glFramebufferTexture2DOES"));

fboFunctionsAvailable = (glBindFramebufferOES != null)
&& (glDeleteFramebuffersOES != null)
&& (glGenFramebuffersOES != null)
//&& (glCheckFramebufferStatusOES != null)
&& (glFramebufferTexture2DOES != null);
}

return fboExtensionAvailable && fboFunctionsAvailable;
}

Then I use it like this:

glGenFramebuffersOES(1, &luminousFramebuffer);
glBindFramebufferOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, luminousFramebuffer);
glFramebufferTexture2DOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT0_OES, GL_TEXTURE_2D, luminousTexture, 0);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
glBindFramebufferOES(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_OES, 0);

The code is in D, but it should be understandable.

Installed this for the first time yesterday, great port thank you for doing it! One of my favourite games of all time, looks even better in widescreen and at 60hz.

Ok, and how is luminousTexture created?

M-HT · Jul 12, 2014

In this case like this:

Code:

    memset(data, 0, luminousTextureWidth * luminousTextureHeight * 4 * uint.sizeof);
    glGenTextures(1, &luminousTexture);
    glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, luminousTexture);
    glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGBA, luminousTextureWidth, luminousTextureHeight, 0,
		 GL_RGBA, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, data);
    glTexParameterf(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
    glTexParameterf(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);

Data is a static buffer (can be dynamic).

glTexParameterf(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);

And when you create the FrameBuffer, the luminousTexture is attached or not (I think it's the last question)?

M-HT · Jul 12, 2014

The texture is attached to the framebuffer using glFramebufferTexture2DOES - see the first example (the second part).

BTW this is all from my A7Xpg port, you can look at the whole code there.

I meant, do you glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0); before creating FrameBuffer.

But I'll simply look in your code and try to have a working FBO. Thanks

I think the rotation-effect is way too strong. If at all it should be much more subtle!

Is it normal that the car is always braking when you release the throttle? For me that's how it is, but I would have expected the car to just roll and that you actively have to engage the brakes if you want to brake?

I will try to render rotation effect parametrable in a future release.

About controls, with one are you using: A assume nub for throttle/brake?

F_Slim · Jul 12, 2014

Yes, I'm using the right nub for throttle/brake.

Thinking about the rotation: if it rotates real slow and maybe not as much this would already help. Slow rotation would have the neat side-effect that the longer you steer to one side, the further it would rotate. This should give a better illusion of "leaning into the curve". Probably rotating back would still have to be fast though, otherwise you're still tilted when going straight.

About the general bc_cat reinit issue, the API is rather broken that it doesn't allow you to free the buffers.. bc_cat from TI wiki frees old buffers automatically when new ones are created, but the one included with main pvr driver doesn't, for whatever reason. I guess the wiki behavior should be ported to the one included with main, otherwise it's not very usable.

Kernel update published, that part should be fixed now.

Yup. Tested and it worked! Thanks

ptitSeb · Jul 12, 2014

So new release.

The tilt is less stong, and is disabled by default. Go to Video Option menu to activate it.

0.2.1.23

Improved a bit Streaming Texture init for GLES mode.
Tilt is now parametrable in the Video option menu (GLES mode only)

(there is hidden fps counter for the curious ones. open the appdata/cannonball/home/config.xml file and add <fps_counter>1</fps_counter> in the <video> section).

F_Slim · Jul 13, 2014

The new tilt is great! It's no longer distracting when just changing lanes. In long turns you barely notice it's happening, but it really adds to the experience. Love it!

Some Youtube of it could do some nice advertisement, if someone can do that.

Nice work. A quick youtube link for you here - it's a little shaky because I had to hold the webcam with my knees.

Thanks. I have put it in 1st post.

Using Fusilli client from Ziz, with cached upload

Linux-SWAT · Sep 30, 2014

Neat, thanks !

ptitSeb · Oct 22, 2014
