Done.

Delete mine as well. Game is awful.

Do you want the messages to be left or deleted?

Edit: this answered to a request that is now fulfilled.

I'll answer to this in the next week-end, as I will not be available until then.

Yeah, that goodness comes from non-short light falloff and intense light bouncing. At least if the light blending is not physically correct, the light diffusion in space is more physically correct.

See Please compile your maps without -fast but with -fastbounce thread for details about this.

I guess there might be a problem with intermediate framebuffers. I assume all framebuffers have 8-bit position. The actual calculations in GLSL are floating-point so we should be fine, but stuff goes in and out of different framebuffers a number of times before going to the final output buffer. Yes...

My work-in-progress branch is there: github.com/DaemonEngine/Daemon/tree/illwieckz/light Right now I do sRGB (from and to) conversions in GLSL because it's easier to do prototyping this way. There exists some OpenGL sRGB framebuffer/image format but then the implementation requires to understand how...

Yeah, basically we should linearize textures in input, do all computations, the delinearize in output. Problem? It adds a lot of color banding because we convert 8bits images and 8bits is only good for displaying images, not really to transform them. I have a branch that does that (with correct sRGB...

Note that what I say about broken computation is not specific to idtech3, even not specific to gaming. The web is broken too. Image editors may also be broken. For example one can read this interesting article: blog.johnnovak.net/2016/09/21/what-every-coder-should-know-about-gamma We can read those ...

Well, in fact in a perfect world r_gamma should always be 1 . But we don't live in a perfect world and all idtech3 engines and content since 20 years uses broken light computation. Well, almost all games had broken lighting computation since for 20 or 30 years. Actually the motivation of my question...
