Old Xonotic default build menu

[Spike29]

netradiant-custom-20221212/gamepacks/xonotic.game/default_build_menu.xml is an old version of the build menu.

The latest one is https://gitlab.com/xonotic/netradiant-xonoticpack/-/blob/master/xonotic.game/default_build_menu.xml.

Of course it's possible to replace it manually, but it would be nice to include the new Xonotic build menu in the next NRC release :)

Will include, adjusted it greatly:

• [ExtraQ3map2Args] not supported/needed, extra args get applied w/o it
• no -fastmeta, normal -meta is faster by an order of magnitude in NRC, no cheap hacks are needed
• -keeplights is excess? is default for xonotic https://gitlab.com/xonotic/netradiant/-/blob/master/tools/quake3/q3map2/game_xonotic.h#L76
• -mv 1000000 -mi 6000000 already bumped in game cfg https://gitlab.com/xonotic/netradiant/-/blob/master/tools/quake3/q3map2/game_xonotic.h#L59; doubtfully that 6M of indices may be practically needed or shall bump in cfg (if engine supports this); constructing such a surface though will take a couple of infinities with old meta algorithm
• -nobouncestore doesn't exist in NRC, might be worthy to port considering big lightmaps
• -fastallocate - is fast by default in NRC

-fill in fast presets is suspicious, operation is slow kinda default_build_menu.zip

Thanks for taking a look at this!

The -mv and -mi values are also set to 1000000 and 6000000 on the Xonotic map compile server: https://gitlab.com/xonotic/xonotic/-/blob/master/misc/tools/xonotic-map-compiler

I'll try your adjusted menu on NRC with a few maps.

ported -nobouncestore commit https://github.com/Garux/netradiant-custom/commit/2c947b7e9532a4e915dd488bb79b995836f15e53, readded it to build menu too

Hello,

We disabled light backsplash on our default build menu (with -backsplash 0 0) because it caused issues on some maps, see https://gitlab.com/xonotic/netradiant-xonoticpack/-/merge_requests/9.

Could you add this change to future pre-compiled versions of NRC?

It would still probably be worth adding a second Final: -bounce 8 -dirty (new Xonotic's default) build entry with backsplash enabled (that's what I do on my end), in addition to the default one with no backsplash.

[Garux]

Ok, will do.

Thanks!
