• Moved several functions out of cCellGame and into Simulator::Cell.

You can check the updated cell documentation with some code examples at https://emd4600.github.io/Spore-ModAPI/namespace_simulator_1_1_cell.html

• Added class App::cMouseCamera, which represents most cameras in the game.
• Simplified cObjectPool to return the specific type directly
• Improved fields in Simulator::Cell::cCellObjectData
• Added class Graphics::cFrustumCull
• Added Resource::Paths::CreateTempFile()
• Added more Editors::EditorPlayMode addresses

Improved support for the Editor play mode.

• Added many Cell stage classes. Check Simulator::Cell.
• Added Simulator::cCreatureDisplayStrategy.

Added classes Simulator::cCreatureGameData and App::cCreatureModeStrategy.

• Added rasterDelta and GetShaderData() to Graphics::ActiveState
• Added PaletteCategoryUI::GetSelectedRigblockPaint()

• Added JumpToAct() and Initialize() to cScenarioPlayMode (@Tenderi4)
• Added several new names to CommonIDs.h (@0KepOnline)
• With the help of @Zarklord, the SDK now includes a script to import all known structures and addresses into Ghidra. This makes reverse engineering much easier! Check the instructions at https://github.com/emd4600/Spore-ModAPI#working-with-ghidra

• Added many classes related to the skinpaint system in the Skinner namespace.
• Added the class Editors::cEditorAnimEvent, which allows you to make the creature play certain animations while editing (the movements it does when putting a part, applying a paint, etc).
• Added the class Editors::cEditorAnimWorld, related to creature animations in the editor.
• Added methods SetActiveMode(), SetCreatureToNeutralPose(), AddCreature(), HandleMessage() to the class Editors::cEditor
• Added the method SetActiveCategory() to Palettes::PaletteUI
• Completed the class Editors::cCreatureDataResource
• Renamed Editors::CreatureWalkController to Editors::EditorCreatureController
• Renamed many methods in App::IMessageManager, most importantly PostMSG() to MessageSend() (to avoid confusions with MessagePost()!)

Bugfix to missing cResourceManager addresses.

Big changes to the Resources namespace. This update introduces the concept of Database, which is a generalization of a .package file; this is because Spore actually supports two kinds of databases: packages (DatabasePackedFile) and disk folders, which are now support in the class DatabaseDirectoryFiles.

Additionally, some methods have been added to access existing databases: check the Resource::Paths namespace. For example:

// This returns EditorSaves.package
auto database = Resource::Paths::GetSaveArea(Resource::SaveAreaID::Creatures);
//  This returns the path to the Spore folder in appdata
auto appdataPath = Resource::Paths::GetDirFromID(Resource::PathID::AppData);

Also refactored the ResourceManager and PropManager classes.

Completed many graphics classes and renamed many of them, based on some information found in a SimCity executable. Completed:

• IEffectsManager
• IEffectsWorld
• IVisualEffect
• ISurface
• IModelManager
• IModelWorld
• ILightingWorld
• IShadowWorld
• IRenderer

Renamed:

• SwarmManager -> EffectsManager
• IEffect -> IVisualEffect
• IEffectWorld -> IEffectsWorld
• RenderManager -> Renderer
• IRenderable -> ILayer
• ModelAsset -> cMWModelInternal
• ModelMesh -> cModelInstance

Terrain update! This update improves and adds many terrain classes like cTerrainSphere, cTerrainSphereQuad and cTerrainShaderMgr, including some of their rendering methods, like cTerrainSphereQuad::RenderWater. This update also completes the TextureManager class and improves the RenderTargetManager, allowing you to do more complex rendering.

And there's even more! To make modding the terrain easier, I've reconstructed some terrain rendering methods' source code: https://emd4600.github.io/Spore-ModAPI/_source_code-_terrain.html
For those interested in adding new star types, some star-related functions have also been reconstructed: https://emd4600.github.io/Spore-ModAPI/_source_code-_simulator.html

Added the following classes:

• Terrain::cTerrainShaderMgr
• Graphics::cBufferDraw, a convenience class that can be used to draw rectangles (for example, to draw textures)
• Graphics::RenderStatistics
• Graphics::cImageDataRaw

Improved the following classes:

• Terrain::cTerrainSphere and Terrain::cTerrainSphereQuad, both with many rendering functions that can be detoured.
• Simulator::cCelestialBody can be instantiated now
• Graphics::ITextureManager, now it's completely finished!
• Graphics:I:RenderTargetManager
• Terrain::cTerrainStateMgr::TerrainTextures

Added new functions:

• Many functions in the Terrain namespace, related with rendering.
• App::cViewer: SetViewWindow(), SetViewOffset(), SetViewport(), SetPerspectiveProjection(), SetParallelProjection(), Dispose()
• Graphics::Texture: IsLoaded(), GetLoadedRaster()
• Simulator::cBadgeManager: AddToBadgeProgress()
• Simulator::cPlanetRecord: GetPerihelion()
• Simulator::cSolarSystem: LoadBinaryStar(), LoadAsteroids()
• Simulator::cStar: GetStarType(), IsBinaryStar(), IsStarOrBinaryStar(), GetName()
• Math: IntRectangle
