[2016-4-16. : 6:28 pm]  jjf28 -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: jjf28 get rid of it? but I need it https://youtu.be/aFW6FGV_tls?t=31s[2016-4-16. : 6:17 pm]  O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Oh--wait, right. because the PCX is loaded as 8-bit now.[2016-4-16. : 6:16 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- jjf28jjf28 shouted: aha, in PCX::load remove the "CorrectPaletteForWindows(pcxDat);" line get rid of it? but I need it[2016-4-16. : 6:12 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- it doesn't help that the code has half the variables in registers, then shuffles them around as it uses those registers  [2016-4-16. : 6:10 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- and I just copy+pasted the code through all of the draw functions[2016-4-16. : 6:09 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I sort of skipped part of the top of the loop that starts it on the next line, so I just sort of keep reading when the rest of the GRP is cut off[2016-4-16. : 6:05 pm] jjf28 -- to replicate: just place any unit overlapping the bottom of the window[2016-4-16. : 6:01 pm] jjf28 -- StarCraft screens are ofc fixed whereas we have variable resolution, probably some optimization in their code[2016-4-16. : 6:00 pm] jjf28 -- also there's an overflow in imageRenderFxn10_0 , so that might be the source of the streching problem[2016-4-16. : 5:59 pm] jjf28 -- aha, in PCX::load remove the "CorrectPaletteForWindows(pcxDat);" line[2016-4-16. : 5:59 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I think I was writing the palette index into the A channel in the screen buffer and using that for the pcx lookup, maybe something with that got screwed up[2016-4-16. : 5:53 pm] jjf28 -- but those are all innocuous, so that narrows it down to a palette or PCX issue[2016-4-16. : 5:46 pm] jjf28 -- differences on lines 2213, 3732, 4826, 4845, 5250, 5265, 5586, and 5767[2016-4-16. : 5:44 pm] jjf28 -- o I'm doing this the wrong way; should just remove all spacing then find the difference [2016-4-16. : 5:24 pm] Moose -- No, I didn't do FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: http://i.snag.gy/0dutl.jpg , you did[2016-4-16. : 5:15 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- maybe it did, but shadows and stuff are definitely broken on the newer one and weren't on the old one[2016-4-16. : 5:13 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I didn't see any graphics being stretched and stuff before the merge ;o[2016-4-16. : 5:11 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- still needs selection circles and stuff, and did we ever figure out what was wrong with the merge that causes the graphics to go all funky?[2016-4-16. : 5:07 pm] jjf28 -- as long as we're not making money or stealing it from blizzard, we shouldn't have a problem [2016-4-16. : 5:06 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- If it were up to me, I feel like it should be fine because CHKD is useless without a valid copy of SC and it's used only for SC (I'm/we're not selling it or using it for other purposes) [2016-4-16. : 4:59 pm] jjf28 -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-user_license_agreement#Enforceability_of_EULAs_in_the_United_States[2016-4-16. : 4:56 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- But people have done it so much for like modding and stuff, like with GPTP or BWAI (from which I used a lot of stuff for reference/definitions), and they don't seem to mind for that[2016-4-16. : 4:55 pm] jjf28 -- I don't think reverse engineering is illegal anyways - it's often used by competing companies & EULAs hold little weight in court as a prosecution tool[2016-4-16. : 4:53 pm] lil-Inferno -- Mini Moose 2707Mini Moose 2707 shouted: How does the Li in Linux sound anything like the ow in Windows, ROFL IDK[2016-4-16. : 4:52 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Clokr_Clokr_ shouted: Emulators for example are kind of legal as long as they don't include the bios (propietary code). I think that's true here, too[2016-4-16. : 4:50 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Though the difference I guess is that it is not open source[2016-4-16. : 4:50 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Clokr_Clokr_ shouted: Things are very different if your editor containes a direct translation of the starcraft engine routines I suppose I'm pretty sure SCMDraft contains stuff directly ripped from SC/SE[2016-4-16. : 3:23 pm] Moose -- Clokr_Clokr_ shouted: Mini Moose 2707 I'm powerless in bash moose, what have I become D: a windows user?[2016-4-16. : 2:38 pm]  Clokr_ -- Mini Moose 2707Mini Moose 2707 shouted: I'm powerless in bash moose, what have I become D: [2016-4-16. : 11:45 am] Clokr_ -- Emulators for example are kind of legal as long as they don't include the bios (propietary code).[2016-4-16. : 11:39 am] Neiv -- But legal stuff is a mess, especially when different countries have different laws D:[2016-4-16. : 11:38 am] Neiv -- They only appeared to care about the name, not the fact that it's a rts engine that can read their data files?[2016-4-16. : 11:37 am] Neiv -- Also, a blizzard-related case: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratagus[2016-4-16. : 11:34 am] Clokr_ -- I have no idea about legal stuff, but yeah it's probably hard to sue someone if they are not using propietary assets/code even it contains similar code which does the same.[2016-4-16. : 11:28 am] Neiv -- If you look at the source for the mpq libraries, they are clearly based on storm/staredit's code [2016-4-16. : 11:28 am] Neiv -- Yeah. I guess you can also argue that mpqs are a propietary format, and any libraries that are able to read them are as bad as copying the gameplay code. But blizzard has never cared about mpq editors (I think?)[2016-4-16. : 11:26 am] Clokr_ -- Things are very different if your editor containes a direct translation of the starcraft engine routines I suppose |
