Also, thank you for reminding me, Sryder - disable my very, very limited progress on encore mode in openGL so that stages aren't an unintended hodgepodge of different colourschemes for the objects versus the level environment.
Squares the colors to get nicer looking results (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKnqECcg6Gw), as well as only blending a small chunk of the skincolor to prevent desaturation from the brightest/darkest values.
* Palette remaps.
* Branding.
TODO:
* Doesn't work in GL. (Mostly.) I have SOME ideas on how to tackle this, but...
* Transmaps are broken in Encore for some reason.
* I tried to make in-level colormaps shimmy over, but it didn't quite work, so I commented it out and only semi-fixed it.
* Deaths in record attack no longer put you into a glitchy singleplayer game-over state that we somehow both kept around and also broke since we branched Kart off of Vanilla..
* Fix non-standard mapscales making the Death Egg respawn octagons dissasemble themselves.
* Allow for MULTIPLE TIME EMBLEMS PER MAP, at least in the emblem UI on the timer. It shows all completed emblems plus the uncompleted emblem up to a total of three.
* Major tweaks to the First Person HUD.
* I know this was your baby, Sal, and some of the changes may prove controversial - so I've put the ones that are likely to cause the most fuss inside an ifndef block, so that you can toggle it as you please with minimal code changes.
* Dontdraw-ness, transparency, and colorization match the player's object!
* Moves around on the screen with respect to the direction of the player object's motion, to make drifting look nicer!
* Flashes the colour of your drift sparks.
* Did a WHOLE bunch of things with respect to music. I'm not sure how to describe this, so I'll go through step-by-step.
* Countdowns now play the drowning music again.
* Removed/disabled extraenous P_RestoreMusics.
* Made map-ending music called by its own function, P_EndingMusic(player_t *player).
* Made the ending music play on the LAST player crossing the finishing line in splitscreen, rather than first.
* Make dead players spinout and clip through the floor, at least until we add the new death anims.
* Fix prior pogo spring usage making dead players fall faster.
* Make the time over countdown use the kart font when not splitscreen with 3 or 4 players.
* Removed a weird bonus HWR_DrawCroppedPatch function signature in the hardware header.
- Smoothed out Ruby & Sepia
- Made Sapphire more distinct from Blue
- Made Navy more distinct from Jet
- MD2 colors weight a few colors even more heavily
- Revised ColorOpposite table
- Fix Wanted not updating on hit
- Very minor item odds adjustment for Battle
More menu/highlight things:
* Rename "Default" to "Game type", to make clearer what it's doing.
* Tweak race colouring slightly.
* Put a highlight around the level select icon, and make it consistent with voting.
* Allow setting the highlight colour to affect the intermissions.
* Fix bug with gametype colour getting for record attack.
A handful of skincolour things:
* Rename Turqouise to Aqua, because it resembles one of my fav 2.2 colours with that name.
* Fix incomplete Steel Blue -> Steel rename.
* Merge the very similar Blueberry and Sapphire...
* ... so Sapphire can be backported!
* And Ruby too.
- The majority of all colors have been tweaked in some capacity to have higher contrast, to either make character highlights or lineart pop out more
- Two new "on trial" colors that may or may not stay: Tangerine, and Dusk. Tangerine is a yellow-orange color to fill the void of yellows. Dusk is a previously removed color that looked freakin' sweet after some cleanup, why wasn't this kept?!
- Turquoise & Frost have been merged. My clean up of Frost ended up looking like a combination of the two.
- Caramel has been removed, Shiny Caramel takes its place.
- Unleashed my inner dream as wanting to have the job of whoever gets to name crayons, and changed all two-word names.
- Todo: reorganize by hue then lum for a nicer invincibility effect, redo and throughly test ColorOpposite table, double check to make sure there aren't any duplicate blendcolors for OGL
* To go with this, have the HUD fade in as the title goes away.
* After complaints, only do dogear gametype indicators on the voting screen for levels which don't match the prevailing gametype, and use thin font to intrude on the level pic less.
* Make the voting screen background a different graphic in battle.
* Improve behaviour of DrawDiag in GL.
* Super important to allow dedicated servers to continue forever without needing to add Terminal.
* To facilitate understanding, add gametype dog-ears to the vote screen!
* To do the above, add V_DrawDiag! Works in GL, too!!
* Unrelated shit!
* Fix a buffer overrun in the randmapbuffer!
* Disable spectating in splitscreen... Not 100% sure, but in 2p battle, if you spectate, you just lose one balloon and respawn...
* Improve all the string drawing functions' behaviour - both with being SLIGHTLY clipped by the edge of the screen, and when confronted with drawing off the base 320*200 internal area
Also tweaked a weird splitscreen check in HWR_DrawSpriteShadow; still investigating whether stplyr is ever not player 2 when it's player 2's view, but this looks better for now
