Terrain pass now ports the SAGE water model (Ocean.fx / OpenSAGE Water.frag): a de-gridded procedural wave normal combined with the retail ra3_deepocean flow and ra3_deepocean_nrm bump maps (appended as the last two terrain-atlas layers, no new backend binding), Schlick fresnel, sky reflection + depth-graded refraction, SAGE diffuse/specular lighting, depth-based transparency, and an underwater tint (UnderwaterDeferred.fx). Mirrored across terrain.frag / dx_terrain.hlsl / webgl_terrain_frag.glsl / webgpu_terrain.wgsl.
Also: logs move to the per-user state dir (%LOCALAPPDATA%\\OpenRA3\\logs, else XDG) and archive as openra3.<stamp>.log; the FPS label shows the active backend; middle-drag camera reset; objects and roads below the water plane are culled.
The engine now runs on a plain Web Worker (no SDL, no PROXY_TO_PTHREAD: in a pthread Emscripten proxies every filesystem syscall to the main browser thread, where synchronous XHR - and thus FS.createLazyFile - is forbidden). A page/worker pair transfers an OffscreenCanvas and forwards DOM input; assets load lazily from an embedded manifest, so entering a map fetches only that map and its tiles.
Presentation: ra3.webgpu (WebGPU via Emscripten's emdawnwebgpu port, WGSL shaders, the default on wasm) and ra3.wasmgl (WebGL2, GLSL ES). The legacy SDL ra3.webgl backend is removed.
- ra3.webgl: a Web peer of Vulkan/Direct3D (SDL3 canvas + GLES3/WebGL2), with
2D blit and the GPU terrain raymarch; GLSL ES shaders; null fallback off
Emscripten. backend::webgl + default_backend() (webgl under Emscripten).
- Emscripten toolchain + Dockerfile.wasm + scripts/build-wasm.sh; import std,
global -fexceptions, and Asyncify so the blocking frame loop yields to the
browser (display::sleep_frame calls emscripten_sleep).
- apps/web/shell.html + apps/web/serve.py (Range-capable dev server).
- Assets: browsers forbid synchronous on-demand reads on the main thread (and
FS.createLazyFile / the WasmFS fetch backend are worker-only; SDL3's Emscripten
backend is main-thread DOM only, so the engine cannot run in a worker). The
wasm build therefore preloads a compact per-map set via OPENRA3_WEB_ASSETS.
- New openra3 textures --map ID lists the loose terrain TGAs a map resolves to
(terrain::resolve_texture_files, shared with load_textures_from_dir).
- Fixes: webgl heightmap used GL_R16 = 0x8229 (that is R8) -> upload rejected,
terrain flattened to water; now 0x822A. Logger uses a stdout console sink on
the web (stderr maps to console.error); a GL error check logs bad uploads.
- CI: wasm image + build jobs.
