Skater slot, menu and throwdown fixes; MY MODS rework; lobby parties
Saved skaters (Extension/Customization, Extension/Skater)
- The selected slot, and slots before it, came up as the standard
skater after a start or map change. The game asks for a slot's saved
outfit once per level, and that happened before the cosmetics catalog
could be read. The first selection now waits for the catalog (60 s at
most), and later map changes check against the catalog already read.
- The retry from abdda77 is removed: the record it wrote to is a
temporary on the game's stack, so it could never work.
Pause menu (Extension/UI/NativeMenu)
- ReSkate's entries stopped working after enough map changes: each
level change took new slots in a fixed table of 1024 for the same
buttons. A button now keeps its slot, and a full table hands out the
slot that has gone longest unused.
Throwdowns (Extension/Throwdowns, Runtime/runtime_init.cpp)
- Multiplayer crashed when someone placed a throwdown after a map
change. The event types are freed with the level but were cached for
the process. They are now cleared when a level is left, checked
before use, and looked for again in each level.
MY MODS (Launcher/gui_mods.cpp, gui.cpp)
- Search, a filter and an order; a switch per mod; a menu per row.
- Multi-select with tick boxes, Shift-click and Ctrl+A, and a bar to
enable, disable, move, update or uninstall everything ticked.
Lobby parties (Extension/Multiplayer/Session)
- A lobby is no longer one party. Its host keeps parties the way a
dedicated server does: invite, accept, join, leave, kick, promote,
open and close, with "/p" party chat. The "Lobby party" switch is
gone. Protocol version unchanged (38).
Mod merge (Engine/Vfs), follow-ups to e715b9b
- Files rewritten into the merged patch are tracked by position, so
another mod's added assets no longer shift the lookup.
- Two mods adding different assets under one name is now noted, with
whose copy the maps get.
- mod_merge_unshift_tests compiles with the launcher tests on.
Videos exported from the replay editor played two to three times too
fast unless the frame rate was capped, or the export was slow enough to
hold it down by itself (4K, WebM). The fault is in the game's own export
path.
Replay export (Extension/Rendering/replay_export.*)
- While exporting, the game steps the replay by one frame of video
(speed / fps) for every frame it renders. The engine's movie encoder
takes a frame only while a permit byte is set; a world update sets it
once, and a frame submitted without it is dropped. Rendering two or
three frames per update, most of a clip never reached the file, and an
MP4 is exactly as long as its frame count. One clip came out as 181
frames at 30 fps and 297 at 60, 6.0 s and 5.0 s.
- The encoder's frame submit is detoured and the permit set before the
original runs, for the replay editor's encoder only (matched by its
vtable). The frame is encoded on the render thread before the call
returns, so the renderer is held to the pace the encoder keeps and no
frame is lost. The replay still runs fast on screen during an export:
that is the encoder's speed, not the file's.
- The same clip afterwards, frame rate uncapped, MP4 1080p: 505 frames
at 30 fps and 1008 at 60, 16.8 s both, audio as long as the video.
WebM and 4K take the same path and were not run again.
- Addresses are in Engine/Game/Build/20260929/replay_export.h. The hook
starts with the others in runtime_init.cpp.
