The AllRules ruleset causes the VS 2019 editor to litter warning squiggles all over the place, about things that would never be fixed. Limit it to the smallest ruleset available. Warnings shown now mainly concern potential arithmetic overflows.
Building with FreeType is still possible and will take precedence over the GDI renderer, but
the project files don't include FreeType anymore by default. Combining GDI rendering with ICU
text layout is untested.
It is the only library we use that calls itself with 'lib' in the
name. This might be confusing, but with the arrival of cmake a lot
of these things are automated. And detection will find 'liblzma',
not 'lzma', like with 'lzo', 'zlib', ..
libtimidity was introduced with the support for PSP. PSP has been
dropped almost a year ago, but this music driver was not. This
corrects that oversight.
timidity (via extmidi) still works fine. This purely removes the
libtimidity support, which was only really available for PSP.
In 10 years there is no commit to change how BeOS works, and we
have no active maintainer for it. It is unlikely it works in its
current state (but not impossible).
With the arrival of SDL2 (and removal of SDL), BeOS is no longer
support. SDL2 suggests to use Haiku instead of BeOS.
This is remove per-pixel overheads due to use of the SetPixel virtual
method.
These overheads included:
* expensive virtual method call which prevents inlining
* palette lookup for every pixel
* branch on whether palette animation is enabled on every pixel
Regenerate project files.
Frame rate and various game loop/graphics timing measurements and graphs. Accessible via the Help menu, and can print some stats in the console via the fps command.
Uniscribe is sometimes producing different results compared to ICU, especially
when RTL and LTR content is mixed. Comparing the results to other programs
(like editors or web browsers) leads me to believe that the result are at least
not worse than ICU and possibly better.
Create a new blitter mode: 32bpp-sse2-anim, which is 32bpp-anim + this.
32bpp-sse2-anim is now used by default where 32bpp-anim would have been.
Also use this with the 32bpp-sse4-anim blitter.
See issue #6469.
