Lines are batched using the simplest fvf 'BatchVertex', however when used in an item with a custom shader material, it may attempt to translate to large_fvf without the required extra channels. To prevent this a special case in flushing is made to deal with lines.
In small batches using hardware transform, vertices would be drawn in incorrect positions due to the item transform being applied twice - once in the transform uniform, and once from the transform passed as a vertex attribute.
This PR alters the shader to ignore uniform transforms when using large FVF.
Due to my less than eagle-like view over these functions I had assumed they were passing in a single buffer input for the changes to make buffer uploading more efficient. They aren't, which is less than ideal.
So these particular changes should be reverted. When I have some more time I'll see whether the API for these calls can be changed, because as is the multiple glSubBufferData calls could be causing stalls on some hardware.
It can be enabled in the Project Settings
(`rendering/quality/filters/use_debanding`). It's disabled
by default as it has a small performance impact and can make
PNG screenshots much larger (due to how dithering works).
As a result, it should be enabled only when banding is noticeable enough.
Since debanding requires a HDR viewport to work, it's only supported
in the GLES3 backend.
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.

- Fade reflection towards inner margin and clip it at screen edges instead of external margin.
- Round edges of the fade margin if both are being cut off to prevent sharp corners.
Previously VS::INSTANCE_NONE was returned for Lightmap data, this caused `visual_server_scene.cpp` to assert in `instance_set_use_lightmap()`
Now `dummy_rasterizer.h` returns `VS::INSTANCE_LIGHTMAP_CAPTURE` for lightmap capture data thus satisfying `visual_server_scene`
When not using TEXTURE_RECT path, flips have to sent via another method to the shader, to ensure that normal maps are correctly adjusted for direction. This PR adds an extra vertex attribute, LIGHT_ANGLE.
For nvidia workarounds, where the shader still has access to the final transform and extra matrix, the LIGHT_ANGLE can be 0 (no adjustment), 180 degrees for a horizontal flip, and negative indicates a vertical flip.
For batching path, the LIGHT_ANGLE can be used to directly specify the light angle for normal mapping, even when the final transform and extra matrix have been baked into vertex positions, so the same shader can be used for both.
Normal mapping previously took no account of rotation or flips in any path except the TEXTURE_RECT (uniform draw) method. This passed flips to the shader in uniforms.
In order to pass flips and rotations to the shader in batching and nvidia workaround, a per vertex attribute is required rather than a uniform. This introduces LIGHT_ANGLE which encodes both the rotation of a quad (vertex) and the horizontal and vertical flip.
In order to optionally store light angles in batching, we switch to using a 'unit' sized array which can be reused for different FVF types, as there is no need for a separate array for each FVF, as it is a waste of memory.
In rare circumstances an item would issue multiple transform commands before a (non rect) draw command. The command syncronization would incorrectly start from first transform, instead of the current transform in these circumstances, which could have the result of missing drawing some commands from the end of the batch.
This had been shown in the wild occuring in debug collision polys. It was a benign error (sometimes visual elements would be lost), but did not cause any serious problems.
This PR fixes this synchronization error.
Compiler is usually in the best position to decide whether to inline functions. Great care must be taken using FORCE_INLINE because it can have unforeseen consequences with recursion, loops and bloat to the executable.
Here some FORCE_INLINES are removed in order to allow the compiler to make best choice and remove a compilation warning where unable to inline during a recursive function.
Fixes#41226
On platforms that don't report support for GL_REPEAT for non power of two textures, the FORCE_REPEAT conditional is used instead. However for rect batches, the conditional was being set AFTER binding the shader, which meant it wasn't being activated.
This PR simply shifts setting the conditional to before the shader bind.
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)
For textures that were imported as wrapping, the legacy renderer relied on GL repeat state being set as a once off during load, and didn't alter the GL wrapping state at runtime.
Batching was setting wrapping according to the CANVAS_RECT_TILE flag on rects, however this reset GL wrapping to clamp after use, which was conflicting with later drawcalls that relied on the default wrapping being preserved.
In this PR we only set the wrapping in GL if the texture has not been imported with wrapping. This duplicates the logic in the legacy renderer and solves the state bug.
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.
The old logic was incorrect, the first item with lights would prevent joining the next item in case it didn't have lights. Now the check is deferred so that items without lights check to see if the previous item had lights, and if so they prevent a join.
Configured for a max line length of 120 characters.
psf/black is very opinionated and purposely doesn't leave much room for
configuration. The output is mostly OK so that should be fine for us,
but some things worth noting:
- Manually wrapped strings will be reflowed, so by using a line length
of 120 for the sake of preserving readability for our long command
calls, it also means that some manually wrapped strings are back on
the same line and should be manually merged again.
- Code generators using string concatenation extensively look awful,
since black puts each operand on a single line. We need to refactor
these generators to use more pythonic string formatting, for which
many options are available (`%`, `format` or f-strings).
- CI checks and a pre-commit hook will be added to ensure that future
buildsystem changes are well-formatted.

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.
Builtins that should prevent baking colors and vertex positions were incorrectly only active in shaders that were not unshaded. This was a terminology misunderstanding - unshaded materials can still use shaders so should have the same test to prevent baking.
Each driver used to define the (same) project settings value, but the
setting names are not driver specific. Ovverriding is still possible via
platform tags.
(cherry picked from commit 90c7102b51)
The behaviour of TYPE_POLYLINE appeared incorrect in GLES2, and inconsistent with GLES3 and the docs, which state that draw_polyline 'Draws interconnected line segments'. Also when drawing with triangles GLES2 draws interconnected segments.
This PR simply changes the primitive from GL_LINES to GL_LINE_STRIP as in GLES3.
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 addition to prevent item joins when VERTEX reads are present in a custom shader, it is also necessary to prevent baking extra matrices (extra transforms) WITHIN items, because these can also report incorrect results.
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).
Affects per-pixel transparency
The current method renders to the screen by copying the GLES output to a
DIB for transparency using the CPU instead of rendering directly to the
window via the GPU. This is slower and also forces the window to be borderless
as WS_EX_LAYERED affects the non-client region as well.
This change uses DWMEnableBlurBehindWindow which allows using the standard
glClearColor() background alpha and is also performed through the GPU,
eliminating CPU bottlenecks
There was a bug in the initial logic for item reordering, whereby it would check for overlaps between the mover (item being moved back) and sandwiched items, but there was no check for overlaps between the movee (item moved forward) and the sandwich items. This extra check is now done.
Also a minor addition to the diagnose frame info (godot texture ID).
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.
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
This should make headless exporting work in projects using textures
in any format.
Error messages should no longer appear when running a project
that used image formats that were previously not present in the list.
(cherry picked from commit 3007c7e2a3)
When reading SCREEN_TEXTURE in a shader, this previously only worked succesfully for the first read of the screen, because state.canvas_texscreen_used was never getting reset. This PR resets state.canvas_texscreen_used at the beginning of each joined item, so that further screen reads can happen.
