Scaling tilemaps can cause border artifacts around the edges of tiles. This has been traced to precision issues in the GPU. This PR adds an adjustment to allow a minor contraction of the UVs of rects in order to compensate for the incorrect classification of texels across the UV border.
As it now seems like we will soon have GLES3 batching working using the same intermediate layer as GLES2, it makes more sense to reuse the same batching settings for both renderers rather than duplicate project settings for GLES2 and GLES3.
It seems that particles (and some other features) do not work correctly on iOS in GLES2 because either many of the devices do not support half float compression, or the GL constant used to reference it from Godot is incorrect.
This PR adds a project setting in rendering/gles2/ to disable half-float compression on iOS.
Although 2D draws in painters order with strict ordering, in certain circumstances items can be reordered to increase batching / decrease state changes, without affecting the end result. This can be determined by an overlap test.
In situation with item:
A-B-A
providing the third item does not overlap the second, they can be reordered:
A-A-B
Items already contain an AABB which can be used for this overlap test.
1)
To utilise this, I have implemented item reordering (only for single rects for now), with the lookahead adjustable in project settings. This can increase performance in situations where items may not be grouped in the scene tree by texture. It can also be switched off (by setting lookahead to 0).
2)
This same trick can be used to help join items that are lit. Lit items previously would prevent joining completely, thus missing out on performance gains other than multi-command items such as tilemaps.
In this PR, lights are assigned as bits in a bitfield (up to 64, the optimization is disabled above this), and on each try_item (for joining), the bitfield for lights and shadows is constructed and compared with the previous items. If these match the 2 items can potentially be joined. However, this can only be done without changing the rendered result if an overlap test is successful.
This overlap test can be adjusted to join items up to a specific number of item references, selectable in project settings, or turned off.
3)
The legacy uniform single rect drawing routine seems to have been identified as the source of flicker, particularly on nvidia. However, it can also be up to 2x as fast. Because of the speed the batching contains a fallback where it can use the legacy single rect method, but I have now added a project setting to make this switchable. In most cases with batching it should not be necessary (as single rects are drawn less frequently) and thus the flickering can be totally avoided.
4)
This PR also fixes a color modulate bug when drawing light passes, in certain situations (particularly custom _draw routines with multiple rects).
5)
This PR also fixes#38291, a bug in the legacy renderer where light passes could draw rects in wrong position.
- Resurrect it for GL ES 2
- Apply roll over with `fmod()` instead of resetting it to 0
- Expose the setting from the `VisualServer`, since it does not belong in any specific rasterizer
Added project setting to enable / disable print frame diagnostics every 10 seconds. This prints out a list of batches and info, which is useful to optimize games and identify performance problems.
This adds 2 new values (items and draw calls) to the performance monitor in a '2d' section, rather than reusing the 3d values in the 'raster' section.
This makes it far easier to optimize games to minimize drawcalls.
2d rendering is currently bottlenecked by drawing primitives one at a time, limiting OpenGL efficiency. This PR batches primitives and renders in fewer drawcalls, resulting in significant performance improvements. This also speeds up text rendering.
This PR batches across canvas items as well as within items.
The code dynamically chooses between a vertex format with and without color, depending on the input data for a frame, in order to optimize throughput and maximize batch size. It also adds an option to use glScissor to reduce fillrate in light passes.
Some cases were not handled properly for Polygon2D after making changes in common code to fix Line2D antialiasing. Added an option for drawing polygons to differentiate the two use cases.
Fixes#34568
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
We're starting a new decade with a well-established, non-profit, free
and open source game engine, and tons of further improvements in the
pipeline from hundreds of contributors.
Godot will keep getting better, and we're looking forward to all the
games that the community will keep developing and releasing with it.
Polygon2D:
The property wasn't used anymore after switching from canvas_item_add_polygon() to canvas_item_add_triangle_array() for drawing.
Line2D:
Added the same property as for Polygon2D & fixed smooth line drawing to use indices correctly.
Fixes#26823
Make sure particles are processed during the same frame when visibility is set to on, in case they are still active from before and need to be restarted.
Fixed#33476
This is a new singleton where camera sources such as webcams or cameras on a mobile phone can register themselves with the Server.
Other parts of Godot can interact with this to obtain images from the camera as textures.
This work includes additions to the Visual Server to use this functionality to present the camera image in the background. This is specifically targetted at AR applications.
The bake mode property of lights previously didn't affect GI probes.
This change makes the GI probe ignore lights that have their bake mode
set to disabled.
There was a bug that could result in most bone aabb boxes ending up with
tiny size upon import and mess up with culling of skeletal meshes. This
fixes it.
Remove animation loop from ParticlesMaterial and move it to
SpatialMaterial for 3D particles and Particles2D for the 2D case.
Added animation to CPUParticles2D as well as the "Convert to
CPUParticles2D" to the PAarticles2D menu.
Initialise keep_original_textures and use_fast_texture_filter in storage
config. Removed any other variables from storage config that were both unused
and uninitialised to avoid future confusion (if they're needed it's
easier to spot an uninitialised variable problem in a PR that adds the
variable again rather than just uses it).
Copied storage Texture struct constructor from GLES3 implementation
(except where variables were already initialised with different values).
Gives us sensible tested defaults for previously uninitialised vars.
Added assignments for state.current_main_tex based on same in GLES3.
This allows more consistency in the manner we include core headers,
where previously there would be a mix of absolute, relative and
include path-dependent includes.
This commit makes operator[] on Vector const and adds a write proxy to it. From
now on writes to Vectors need to happen through the .write proxy. So for
instance:
Vector<int> vec;
vec.push_back(10);
std::cout << vec[0] << std::endl;
vec.write[0] = 20;
Failing to use the .write proxy will cause a compilation error.
In addition COWable datatypes can now embed a CowData pointer to their data.
This means that String, CharString, and VMap no longer use or derive from
Vector.
_ALWAYS_INLINE_ and _FORCE_INLINE_ are now equivalent for debug and non-debug
builds. This is a lot faster for Vector in the editor and while running tests.
The reason why this difference used to exist is because force-inlined methods
used to give a bad debugging experience. After extensive testing with modern
compilers this is no longer the case.
The rasterisers (both GLES3 and GLES2) were calculating their own frame delta time
This fix lets the rasterizers get the frame delta through the draw call
That way any regulations to the frame step from the main script will not cause particle systems to process at a different step than the rest of the Engine.
Remove unused rasterizer storage variable
frame.prev_tick variable were not used anywhere and has been removed
Fixes reported logically dead codes by Coverity
* image.cpp: Doesn't really need any modification. But to remove the bug
report then we have to move the MAX call away from the for loop
statement.
* rasterizer_gles3.cpp: Removes unnecessary elif condition since it is
checked earlier in the function
* collada.cpp: If stamement never reached due to macro ERR_CONTINUE does
the same.
* navigation_mesh.cpp: Variables should always be null - however, also
checked for the very same condition in their function call. Leaving this
for review (whether the function call is necessary or not)
* path_editor_plugin.cpp: If cancel is true, then it should restore the
edited value to the original provided.
http://docs.godotengine.org/en/3.0/classes/class_editorspatialgizmo.html#class-editorspatialgizmo-commit-handle
* spatial_editor_gizmos.cpp: the very condition of i >= 3 is
predetermined in the if case right before it. Thus case 1 is always '1'
and case 2 is always '-1'
* grid_map_editor.cpp: Same as above in spatial_editor_gizmos.cpp
* voxel_light_baker.cpp: Same as above in spatial_editor_gizmos.cpp
* visual_server.cpp: Same as above in spatial_editor_gizmos.cpp
* visual_script_expression.cpp: char '-' is already true in the switch
case mechanism. Thus it can never reach to default case.
* particles.cpp: Case 'PARAM_MAX' is unreachable due to index checking
right before the switch execution.
* shader_language.cpp: Invalid index is handled in switch default case.
`type < TYPE_FLOAT && type > TYPE_VEC4` -> `(type < TYPE_FLOAT || type > TYPE_VEC4`)
Fixes the "always false problem" in TODO comment.
Those are deprecated as VS.force_sync and VS.force_draw do the same and more explicitly,
but we cannot remove them without marking them as deprecated before that.
Fixes issue introduced in #15892.
- Added bindings for multimesh, immediate, skeleton, light, reflection probe, gi probe, lightmap, particles, camera, environment, scenario, instance
- Removed draw and sync, were duplicates of force_* equivalents
- Bumped binders max arguments from 11 to 13
- Wrote some wrappers as not all methods were variant-friendly
Using `misc/scripts/fix_headers.py` on all Godot files.
Some missing header guards were added, and the header inclusion order
was fixed in the Bullet module.
