Async. compilation via ubershader is currently available in the scene and particles shaders only.
Bonus:
- Use `#if defined()` syntax for not true conditionals, so they don't unnecessarily take a bit in the version flagset.
- Remove unused `ENABLE_CLIP_ALPHA` from scene shader.
- Remove unused `PARTICLES_COPY` from the particles shader.
- Remove unused uniform related code.
- Shader language/compiler: use ordered hash maps for deterministic code generation (needed for caching).
For octahedral compressed normals/tangents, we use vec4 in the shader
regardless of whether a normal/tangent does/doesn't exist
For the case where we only have a normal vector, we need to specify that
there are only two components being used when calling glVertexAttrib
Before we would always specify that there were 4 components, and used
offsets to determine where in the vertex buffer to read data from but
this doesn't work on all platforms
Sets `AlignOperands` to `DontAlign`.
`clang-format` developers seem to mostly care about space-based indentation and
every other version of clang-format breaks the bad mismatch of tabs and spaces
that it seems to use for operand alignment. So it's better without, so that it
respects our two-tabs `ContinuationIndentWidth`.
Immediate meshes do not have geometry of type Surface so we check
to see the mesh isn't immediate before trying to cast to surface
to check for octahedral compression
This patch fixes rendering of multiple reflection probes for a single
mesh in the GLES2 renderer. If there were two reflection probes, one of
them would always have the `interior` option flipped, resulting in
broken blending between probes and flickering of ambient reflection.
Also make note of GLES2 reflection probe limit
This provides more realistic lighting with a very small performance cost.
The option is available in both GLES3 and GLES2, and can be enabled in
the Project Settings. This goes well with the ACES Fitted tonemapping mode
that was recently added.
When enabled, this also makes upgrading Godot 3.x projects to Godot 4.0 easier,
since lighting in 3.x will better match how it'll look in Godot 4.0.
Change the existing DEV_ASSERT function to be switched on and off by the DEV_ENABLED define. DEV_ASSERT breaks into the debugger as soon as hit.
Add error macros DEV_CHECK and DEV_CHECK_ONCE to add an alternative check that ERR_PRINT when a condition fails, again only enabled in DEV_ENABLED builds.
Update mesh_surface_get_format_stride and
mesh_surface_make_offsets_from_format to return an array of offsets and
an array of strides in order to support vertex stream splitting
Update _get_array_from_surface to also support vertex stream splitting
Add a condition on split stream usage to ensure it does not get used on
dynamic meshes
Handle case when Tangent is compressed but Normal is not compressed
Make stream splitting option require a restart in the settings
Update SoftBody and Sprite3D to support and use strides and offsets
returned by updated visual_server functions
Update Sprite3D to use the dynamic mesh flag
This backports the high quality glow mode from the `master` branch.
Previously, during downsample, every second row was ignored.
Now, when high-quality is used, we sample two rows at once to ensure
that no pixel is missed. It is slower, but looks much better and has
a much high stability while moving.
High quality also takes an additional horizontal sample the width of the
horizontal blur matches the height of the vertical blur.
With the octahedral compression, we had attributes of a size of 2 bytes
which potentially caused performance regressions on iOS/Mac
Now add padding to the normal/tangent buffer
For octahedral, normal will always be oct32 encoded
UNLESS tangent exists and is also compressed
then both will be oct16 encoded and packed into a vec4<GL_BYTE>
attribute
Implement Octahedral Compression for normal/tangent vectors
*Oct32 for uncompressed vectors
*Oct16 for compressed vectors
Reduces vertex size for each attribute by
*Uncompressed: 12 bytes, vec4<float32> -> vec2<unorm16>
*Compressed: 2 bytes, vec4<unorm8> -> vec2<unorm8>
Binormal sign is encoded in the y coordinate of the encoded tangent
Added conversion functions to go from octahedral mapping to cartesian
for normal and tangent vectors
sprite_3d and soft_body meshes write to their vertex buffer memory
directly and need to convert their normals and tangents to the new oct
format before writing
Created a new mesh flag to specify whether a mesh is using octahedral
compression or not
Updated documentation to discuss new flag/defaults
Created shader flags to specify whether octahedral or cartesian vectors
are being used
Updated importers to use octahedral representation as the default format
for importing meshes
Updated ShaderGLES2 to support 64 bit version codes as we hit the limit
of the 32-bit integer that was previously used as a bitset to store
enabled/disabled flags
Implemented splitting of vertex positions and attributes in the vertex
buffer
Positions are sequential at the start of the buffer, followed by the
additional attributes which are interleaved
Made a project setting which enables/disabled the buffer formatting
throughout the project
Implemented in both GLES2 and GLES3
This improves performance particularly on tile-based GPUs as well as
cache performance for something like shadow mapping which only needs
position data
Updated Docs and Project Setting
This is an older, easier to implement variant of CAS as a pure
fragment shader. It doesn't support upscaling, but we won't make
use of it (at least for now).
The sharpening intensity can be adjusted on a per-Viewport basis.
For the root viewport, it can be adjusted in the Project Settings.
Since `textureLodOffset()` isn't available in GLES2, there is no
way to support contrast-adaptive sharpening in GLES2.
All my earlier test cases for software skinning had the polys parent transform to be identity. This works fine until you had cases where the user had moved the transform of the parent nodes of skinned polys.
This PR fixes this situation by taking into account the final (concatenated) transform of the polys RELATIVE to the skeleton base transform. It does this by applying the inverse skeleton base transform to the poly final transform.
We've been using standard C library functions `memcpy`/`memset` for these since
2016 with 67f65f6639.
There was still the possibility for third-party platform ports to override the
definitions with a custom header, but this doesn't seem useful anymore.
Backport of #48239.
When users create an invalid shader, the shader->valid flag is set to false. Batching previously assumes that shaders are valid, and this can result in primitives with invalid shader being joined, causing visual errors.
This PR prevents joining items that have invalid shaders.
Allows users to override default API usage, in order to get best performance on different platforms.
Also changes the default legacy flags to use STREAM rather than DYNAMIC.
In rare cases default batches could occur which were containing commands that were not owned by the first item referenced by the joined item. This had assumed to be the case, and would read the wrong command, or crash.
Instead for safety in this PR we now store a pointer to the parent item in default batches, and use this to determine the correct command list instead of assuming.
Trying to use the old `hardware_transform` flag to combine the new large_fvf has lead to several bugs. So here the logic is broken out into 2 separate components, single item and large_fvf.
The old `hardware_transform` name also no longer makes sense, as there are now 3 transform paths:
Software (CPU)
Hardware (uniform)
Hardware (attribute)
- Fix objects with no material being considered as fully transparent by the lightmapper.
- Added "environment_min_light" property: gives artistic control over the shadow color.
- Fixed "Custom Color" environment mode, it was ignored before.
- Added "interior" property to BakedLightmapData: controls whether dynamic capture objects receive environment light or not.
- Automatically update dynamic capture objects when the capture data changes (also works for "energy" which used to require object movement to trigger the update).
- Added "use_in_baked_light" property to GridMap: controls whether the GridMap will be included in BakedLightmap bakes.
- Set "flush zero" and "denormal zero" mode for SSE2 instructions in the Embree raycaster. According to Embree docs it should give a performance improvement.
As part of the improvements to batch more cases, batching can store final_modulate as an attribute in the vertex format rather than sending as a uniform. This allows draw calls with different final_modulate to be batched together.
However custom shader code was reading from only the final_modulate uniform, and not the attribute when it was in use. This was leading to visual errors.
This is tricky to solve, because we cannot use the same name for the attribute in the vertex and fragment shaders, because one is an attribute and one a varying, whereas a uniform is accessible anywhere. To get around this, a macro is used which can translate to the most appropriate variable depending on whether uniform or attribute or varying is required.
GLES3 changes:
This commit makes it possible to disable 3D directional lights by using
the light's cull mask. It also automatically disables directionals when
the object has baked lighting and the light is set to "bake all".
GLES2 changes:
Added a check for the light cull mask, since it was previously ignored.
One of the new fvf types (FVF_MODULATED) allows batching custom shaders that use modulate. The only slight oversight is that there is a special define when MODULATE is used in a custom shader, called MODULATE_USED, that is checked, and if set it does NOT apply final_modulate as part of canvas.glsl.
This MODULATE_USED define wasn't checked when the new FVF was used and modulate was passed in an attribute.
This PR moves the application of the final_modulate into the #ifndef MODULATE_USED section.
The rendering/quality/2d section of project settings is becoming considerably expanded in 3.2.4, and arguably was not the correct place for settings that were not really to do with quality.
3.2.4 is the last sensible opportunity we will have to move these settings, as the only existing one likely to break compatibility in a small way is `pixel_snap`, and given that the whole snapping area is being overhauled we can draw attention to the fact it has changed in the release notes.
Class reference is also updated and slightly improved.
`pixel_snap` is renamed to `gpu_pixel_snap` in the project settings and code to help differentiate from CPU side transform snapping.
Due to multi pass approach to lighting in GLES2, in some situations the rendered result can look different if lights are presented in a different order.
The order (aside from directional lights) seems to be simply copied from the culling routine (octree or bvh) which is essentially arbitrary. While octree is usually consistent with order, bvh uses a trickle optimize which may result in lights occurring in different order from frame to frame.
This PR adds an extra layer of sorting on GLES2 lights in order to get some kind of order consistency.
This suppresses the blocky shadow appearance, bringing the shadow rendering
much closer to GLES3. This soft filter is more demanding as it requires
more lookups, but it makes PCF13 shadows more usable.
The soft PCF filter was adapted from three.js.
Valgrind reported two instances of reading uninitialized memory in the batching. They are both pretty benign (as evidenced by no bug reports) but wise to close these.
The first is that when changing batch from a default batch it reads the batch color which is not set (as it is not relevant for default batches). The segment of code is not necessary when it has already deemed a batch change necessary (which will occur from a default batch). In addition this means that the count of color changes will be more accurate, rather than having a possible random value in.
The second is that on initialization _set_texture_rect_mode is called before the state has been properly initialized (it is initialized at the beginning of each canvas_begin, but this occurs outside of that).
Move definition of rendering/quality/filters/anisotropic_filter_level to
servers/visual_server.cpp, since both GLES2 and GLES3 now use it
rasterizer_storage_gles3.cpp: Remove a spurious variable write (the
value gets overwritten soon after)
