output: handle common lighting in TRX #2358
Conversation
CLAMP_TO_BORDER apparently is not available on some platforms.
This changes the signature for adding dynamic light to accept XYZ_32 rather than separator coordinates.
This removes the global dynamic light count and moves it to output module scope, introducing a function instead to reset it as needed.

This names the various room light modes that exist in TR2.
This removes the unused second ambient on TR2 rooms, renames the first ambient to match TR1, and adds the light mode property to TR1, defaulting to normal.

This introduces a SHADE struct for items and static meshes, and a FALLOF struct for lights to allow easier handling in common logic between TR1 and TR2.
This makes TR1 room vertices more in line with TR2.

I found an issue - I think Lara's lighting in one of the dark rooms in TRUB looks incorrect: PR build: Recent dev snapshot: |
This moves common lighting functions to TRX. This temporarily introduces some helper functions to access TR2 specifics, like shade tables, while the module remains split. These can later be eliminated.

Thank you @aredfan. I'm hoping that should be fixed now. I'll do some further extensive tests myself as well, but pushed the build for you to check. |

Anytime, and thank you for pushing a new build. I can confirm the issue is fixed. 👍
The flat lighting on Lara can also happen in certain rooms in OG - namely rooms 21/42. It seems your fix also fixed those rooms as well.

Description
This shifts (most) lighting output handling to TRX. Dynamic lighting is technically now supported in TR1, but we don't call it anywhere yet: I thought it would be best to check over this change first. Dynamic lights are handled in three slightly different ways, hence the move now to standardize the shared logic.
There are a couple of temporary public functions while the modules remain split - fog calculation and accessing the TR2 shade tables. Otherwise, I've standardized most struct properties, such as shades, vertex info etc to make things easier to manage. TR1 will default where applicable.
I carried out some logging of generated output values while a demo runs between develop and this branch, and values are identical. For testing, room lighting, game object lighting (Lara, enemies, pickups, doors etc) and static mesh lighting should be as it currently is in both games.
