SDL2 client soon to be released

Post by deen »

Many months ago I started working on getting SDL2 backend into DDNet client. People tested it back then: viewtopic.php?f=48&t=2128

Now I worked on it some more and it will land in the next DDNet release.
Some things to look out for:
  • Text input, hope it works with all keyboards (CJK text input is still missing, but can be implemented now with SDL2)
  • Some key bindings have to set again because of changed names
  • Copy and paste
  • Mouse might be better
  • Fullscreen can be switched without restart
  • VSync might not cause input delay anymore
  • Screen selection
Also, this version already has all the other changes since the 9.3.1 release: https://github.com/ddnet/ddnet/compare/9.3.1...HEAD

Please play around with it and report your findings.

Update: Released in 10.0

Tested on windows, didn't find any bugs

Edit: the mouse sensibility on menus are diferent, it has more sensibility, and i don't know how to adjust it. The mouse sensibility in controls only changes the sensibility ingame

f1, ui_mousesens. If 50 feels like the old one, it's my fault.

redownloaded it just now, and ui_mousesens 98(default? or I somehow lowered it by 2 in past?) feels exactly the same as "old one", no longer ~2x slower

Updated the build, just some small changes, nothing should break. High DPI problems should be fixed now as well.

When holding shift and using arrow keys left and right you should be able to highlight and CTRl+C, no idea if and how this would work. And CTRL+A to select everthing.
