- Implemented Bank Constructor object.
- Merged Pyramid object into common Bank class. Banks can now grant
spells as part of their reward.
- Move bank config code to config/objects/creatureBanks.json. Note: WoG
banks are not updated yet, should be moved to WoG mod.
- Updated AI code so it can correctly evaluate bank danger (should be
generic enough for use with other objects)
- New files JsonRandom.* that contain routines for loading random
objects from Json (still WiP but should be stable)
- Converted dwellings.json into new format
- Implemented "mapObject" entry in town format
- Removed capital/fort/village fields from town in favor of overrides
- updated code to use new interface
- removed old DefObjHandler (todo - rename file)
Summary:
- most code but loading is now in place
- type names may deserve improvements (some of them are too similar)
- still barely compiles and not tested
- VCMI will load mods from Mods directory recursively. Submods must be
placed into additional Mods directory, e.g.
<data dir>/Mods/<mod name>/Mods/<submod name>
- submods will be loaded only if their parent mod was enabled
- submods namespace for objects will be "<parent mod ID>.<submod ID>"
- TODO: Launcher is not aware of submods yet (seems to be working but
may behave incorrectly)
- reorganized internal filesystem structure - all files from one mod are
now grouped in same FS node
- modhandler will now calculate crc32 checksum for each mod
- modhandler now knows validation status of each mod
todo - use checksum to determine mods that have not changed since last
start and disable validation for them.
- Re-organized CMapGenerator
- Created CZone and CTemplate objects in the heap and used pointers
- Added stub classes CZoneGraphGenerator and CZonePlacer (include warnings of unused variables, please ignore them)
- Fixed CRandomGenerator bug that always the same number was produced
- Better structure of Visual Studio project files with using filters
- Updated project files (VS, CMake)
- Excluded compiler warning mismatched-tags (false positive)
- Fixed a bug when compiling with unit tests enabled
- minizip library is now part of sources, located at lib/minizip
- cmakefiles will compile minizip as dynamic library (Note: only 2 files used by vcmi are included in minizip.so)
- zip files can be loaded similar to other archives via filesystem.json
- mods can use Content.zip instead of Content/ directory. Files in directory will replace files in archive.
- removed CResourceLoader class in favor of one that implements resource loader interface
- removed global pool of files, in favour of more dynamic approach
- renamed some files to match current situation
All these changes are needed mostly for future mod manager + .zip support
- use std versions of function, bind and ref
- OVERRIDE -> override
- NULL -> nullptr
- use std versions of random distributions
NOTE: this may be last revision that supports gcc-4.5
- loading of all objects (including H3 objects) will be directed by mod handlers
- common base for all handlers accessible from mod system (IHanderBase)
- json format changes: use struct with string ID's instead of vector
- fixed some gcc/clang errors and warnings
- fixed several cases of memory leaks and invalid memory access (mostly related to usage of bonus system and/or identifiers resolution)
Note that right now loading is much slower than before due to excessive json validation (or not fast enough validator)
* introduced new handler BonusTypeHandler
* config\bonusnames.json converted to common format and splitted info main and localizable parts
* hanlders initialization refactored
- paths in "filesystem" node are now relative to mod directory
- "filesystem" entry in mod.json is now optional
- made "register object" log messages visible only in log
- minor fixes, including #1173
- artifact iconIndex should work
- new file with hardcoded string constants: lib/StringConstants.h
Note: some minor bugs, will fix soon:
- slow to open hero window
- hero adventure map images serialization is broken\incorrect
- filesystem initialization works in conjuction with modHandler
- (config) split buildings.json in multiple files in "factions" directory
- (mods) merged filesystem.json and config/mod.json into mod.json
- moved almost all loading to TownHandler
- CBuildings and CStructures are now part of CTown
- merged hall.json into buildings.json
Should not cause any crashes or glitches
- config folder with all json files is used via new FS API
- fixed campaigns loading. Replaced "detect h3m starts" heuristics with CCompessedStream::getNextBlock()
- completely replaced CLodHandler, removed bitmaph and spriteh
- replaced CLodStream in favour of CCompressedStream (2 new files)
- renamed CResourceLoaderFactory and ResourceIndetifier to shorter names
NOTES:
- campaign loading is currently broken. Will fix.
- I am going to remove several unused files in several days (e.g. LodHandler)
