Setup active RGSS version at runtime. Desired version can be
specified via config, or as default, auto detected from the game
files. This removes the need to build specifically for each
version, which should help packaging a lot.
This also greatly reduces the danger of introducing code that
wouldn't compile on all RGSS version paths (as certain code paths
were completely ifdef'd out).
This can be optimized more, eg. not compiling shaders that aren't
needed in the active version.
Removes the need to manually convert the Game.ini to UTF-8 every
time with eg. Japanese games. Also, setting the window title on
OSX with invalid UTF-8 crashes.
This functionality and the dependency on libiconv and libguess
are optional and can be enabled with `CONFIG+=INI_ENCODING`.
If turned off and invalid UTF-8 is encountered, the game title
is treated as being empty (ie. the folder name is used instead).
This adds a new dependency with libfuildsynth. MIDI support
is built by default, but can be disabled if not desired.
All RTP songs should work well, but there are known problems
with other files (see README). Also, the pitch shift implementation
is somewhat poor and doesn't match RMXP (at least subjectively).
A soundfont is not included and must be provided by
the user themself.
Previously, any font names requested by RGSS would be translated
directly to filenames by lowercasing and replacing spaces with
underscores (and finally doing some extension substitution).
To make this whole thing work smoother as well as get closer to
how font discovery is done in VX, we now scan the "Fonts/" folder
at startup and index all present font assets by their family name;
now, if an "Open Sans" font is present in "Fonts/", it will be
used regardless of filename.
Font assets with "Regular" style are preferred, but in their
absence, mkxp will make use of any other style it can find for
the respective family. This is not the exact same behavior as
VX, but it should cover 95% of use cases.
Previously, one could substitute fonts via filenames, ie. to
substitute "Arial" with "Open Sans", one would just rename
"OpenSans.ttf" to "arial.ttf" and put it in "Fonts/". With the
above change, this is no longer possible. As an alternative, one
can now explicitly specify font family substitutions via mkxp.conf;
eg. for the above case, one would add
fontSub=Arial>Open Sans
to the configuration file. Multiple such rules can be specified.
In the process, I also added the ability to provide
'Font.(default_)name' with an array of font families to search
for the first existing one instead of a plain string.
This makes the behavior closer to RMXP; however, it doesn't
work 100% the same: when a reference to the 'Font.name' array is
held and additional strings are added to it without re-assignig
the array to 'Font.name', those will be ignored.
