changed .viewzoom field to scale view frustum slopes rather than fov
angle, this makes zooming more fluid and straightforward, and causes a 1
to 1 correspondence between the sensitivity decrease and the view size
decrease
added cls.timedemo check in S_PaintAndSubmit to use cl.mtime[0] for sound sync when doing timedemos, this greatly improves the accuracy of benchmarks with respect to sound mixing time
player model no longer shadows gun model
technical explanation: this was done by adding a RENDER_NOSELFSHADOW flag which is used on view models, this flag prevents any entities using the flag from shadowing themselves or eachother... then another hack was added to queue the shadowing of the RENDER_EXTERIORMODEL entities in the RENDER_NOSELFSHADOW batch (so it does not shadow other RENDER_NOSELFSHADOW entities), but still have it receive shadows by lighting it in the normal self-shadowing batch... In more general use the RENDER_NOSELFSHADOW flag could be used to make characters not shadow themselves (like in Doom3), however r_shadow_frontsidecasting 0 is a better approach to that problem (partial self-shadowing characters)
added GL_DepthRange function and MATERIALFLAG_SHORTDEPTHRANGE (now used by viewmodels), this prevents viewmodels from poking into walls
changed EF_NODEPTHTEST code to set MATERIALFLAG_SHORTDEPTHRANGE instead of MATERIALFLAG_NODEPTHTEST, this causes proper rendering of opaque models (such as the held item in prydon gate)
this also reenabled stencil shadows on view models but they render as if they are very very small (due to MATERIALFLAG_SHORTDEPTHRANGE)
changed default value of cl_viewmodel_scale from 0.3 to 1, this makes stereo rendering look better (small gun model looks silly when you can actually see that it is small) and makes rtlight cubemaps affect the gun more realistically
view models no longer receive stencil shadows (only basic light visibility culling like transparent surfaces receive), this makes the gun much more visible and protects it the player's own shadow, this change may is a major one and may get further changes (such as better culling perhaps)
check vid_activewindow in several spammy prints that occur when the client is running slower than the server
changed cl.time warnings from developer 10 to developer 100 and check vid_activewindow
made the following changes to CL_NetworkTimeReceived:
changed cl_nettimesyncmode 2 to be more tolerant of out of bounds values, this fixes occasional choppyness
now prints warnings if time is out of bounds if developer is 10 or higher
simplified some code
disabled time interpolation code during signon process, this should give better starting values for cl.time
fixed a bug where the loading plaque caused front buffer rendering of all later stereo views (glDrawBuffer was not being set in stereo rendering, except when vid_stereobuffer was used)
swapped left/right views so that positive values for r_stereo_separation produce normal stereo, not cross-eyed
added r_stereo_angle cvar based on a patch from Thomas Spriggs, this allows you to make the views look different directions, in addition to the existing offset capability
cl_bobmodel_side and cl_bobmodel_up cvars now are scaled by cl_viewmodel_scale so that cl_viewmodel_scale can be changed without affecting the amount of viewmodel movement on the screen
reworked predicted player physics to call PlayerPreThink before the move and PlayerPostThink after the move, in addition to calling those surrounding the regular physics code, hopefully this doesn't break anything, it fixes the jumping bug introduced in the recent changes
fixed two timing flaws where cl.realframetime was used instead of (cl.time - cl.oldtime), one being centerprint fade time, and the other being ambient sky/water noise fading
changed PlayerPrethink/think/PlayerPostThink to occur regardless of movement prediction, so they are guarenteed to run every server frame like in quake/quakeworld, only the movement itself is done elsewhere and only for MOVETYPE_WALK cases, this means that animations keep proper sync regardless of prediction timing
