Which works in both Borland C++, Open Watcom, and Visual C++.
Not that we're about to port any of the games to these compilers, just
something I noticed while evaluating 32-bit compilers for ReC98's own
32-bit pipeline tools. Modders might want to look into that though,
since 100% position independence also makes it easier to change
compilers.
Only one code segment left in both OP and FUUIN! its-happening.gif
Yeah, that commit is way larger than I'm comfortable with, but none of these
functions is particularly large or difficult to decompile (with the exception
of graph_putsa_fx(), which I actually did weeks ago), and OP and MAIN have
their own unique functions in between the shared ones, so…
So yeah, after ignoring this issue for a week, we indeed have no choice but to
decompile these functions into this horrible mess of C and inline assembly.
And you know what? Since the compiled result still matches with ZUN's binary,
it's entirely possible that this *was* the original format this code was
written in! Seriously, how intoxicated do you have to be to write (or rather,
slur) code like this?
Keeping these functions entirely in assembly would have surely been better.
However, it would have made linking practically impossible, especially for the
later games which still need them in the current assembly slice format.
