This is part of effort to make more efficient use of the API for devices with poor drivers. This eliminates multiple calls to glBufferSubData per update.
Batching is mostly separated into a common template which can be used with multiple backends (GLES2 and GLES3 here). Only necessary specifics are in the backend files.
Batching is extended to cover more primitives.
Don't apply lighting to objects when they have a lightmap texture and
the light is set to BAKE_ALL. This prevents applying the same direct
light twice on the same object and makes setting up scenes with mixed
lighting much easier.
Option in MeshInstance to enable software skinning, in order to test
against the current USE_SKELETON_SOFTWARE path which causes problems
with bad performance.

Fixes: #28683, #28621, #28596 and maybe others
For iOS we enable pvrtc feature by default for both GLES2/GLES3
Etc1 for iOS doesn't have any sense, so it disabled.
Fixed checks in export editor.
Fixed pvrtc ability detection in GLES2 driver.
Fixed pvrtc encoding procedure.
1. Removed errors in mesh_surface_get_array as it's supported now
2. More accurate errors in mesh_surface_get_blend_shapes
(cherry picked from commit e19a3df98f)
Using the operator += in a shader is classified as an 'assign', and so is classified as a write rather than a read. This means that we need to prevent vertex baking on either a write or read (i.e. on usage), rather than just on reads.
Writing to COLOR in a custom shader can result in incorrect results if colors are baked (vertex color and modulate). This PR prevents baking with COLOR output, except under the special circumstances that final modulate is (1, 1, 1, 1), in which case the result will be correct. This should still allow color baking in many scenarios with custom shaders.
In situations where custom canvas shaders read VERTEX values, they could read incorrect global positions rather than local positions where batching had baked item transforms. This PR prevents joining items that read VERTEX built in in shaders, and thus prevents this situation arising (as unjoined items will not bake transforms).
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.
Adding the ability to access MODULATE in the shader breaks when final_modulate is baked into vertex colors (this is a technique used to batch together different colored items). This PR prevents baking vertex colors when MODULATE is detected in the shader.
It also prevents baking when COLOR is read in canvas shaders, which could currently produce the wrong result in the shader if colors were baked. It does not prevent baking if COLOR is only written, which happens in most shaders, and will operate correctly without baking.
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.
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.
This changes the code path so that `glRenderBufferStorage*` always uses
values appropriate for renderbuffers and `glTexImage2D` never uses an
internalformat meant for buffers.
Fixes#33825.
When rendering to an external texture and MSAA was active (as happened
in the Oculus Mobile ARVR plugin) no MSAA was rendered as the correct
depth buffer and multisample texture target was not used.
This also fixes https://github.com/GodotVR/godot_oculus_mobile/issues/54
