Missing marks #1101

Open maek opened 5 years ago

maek commented 5 years ago

The engine does not draw any marks (shadows, creep, ...) on surfaces formed by several brushes that have coplanar faces and use the same shader (e.g. map-xyz_source.dpkdir.zip).

maek commented 5 years ago

You can see the missing shadows if you load the map with devmap xyz and enable the 3rd person view with cg_thirdPerson 1. It is worth noting that both the shadows and the creep are correctly drawn on the raised brush.

Also, this simple map displays so much weirdness with lines (and is not bloom compatible at all :grin: )

maek commented 5 years ago

@illwieckz I forgot to mention that I built just the bsp (no vis, no light) for the sake of brevity... anyway, I've included the .map so you can experiment as you like :smile:

There's a cvar called r_noMarksOnTrisurfs which defaults to on. Does setting that to 0 do anything?

maek commented 5 years ago

So if I set it to 0 then the issue goes away. Any idea about the reason? Btw I'm testing with -homepath /tmp/.unvanquished/ so everything should be at default.

slipher commented 5 years ago

If you mean any idea about the reason this cvar exists (and can't be set to 0 without cheats enabled!), then no. I just randomly happened to see the cvar a few days ago.

maek commented 5 years ago

Apparently that cvar is for allowing marks on models (md3, ...). The thing is why it's taking that path while with less brushes it is not.

I just tested r_noMarksOnTrisurfs 0 on chasm and I must say it doesn't seem very useful
