This commit renames all shader snippet files to conform to the newly
introduced naming convention outlined in README.md.
The new naming convention uses a `prefix_name.suffix` format to clearly
indicate the purpose and target shader stage of each snippet. This
improves the overall organization and readability of the shader code,
making it easier to understand how each snippet contributes to the
shader generation process.
No functional changes were made to the shader code itself or source
code. This is purely a refactoring for clarity and maintainability.
This adds a new material property (float postLightingMixFactor) which
is used to mix the original color with the post-lighting blended color.
The default value is 1.0, which keeps the current behavior.
FIXES=[328498606]
* Add a new material param, stereoscopicType
This new parameter allows us to specify which implementation of
stereoscopic rendering Filament uses for the material.
This change just includes material parameter addition and shader code
changes, so it doesn't affect the current rendering behavior.
These changes will follow as separate commits.
- render pipeline changes
- material parameter override via matc parameter
- material document update
these materials would not generate proper structure or shadow buffer,
because they used a special variant that in most case removed the
user code.
now when the user code writes the depth or calls discard, the user
shader is kept.
Previously, when a material was expilicitly built for feature level 0, it was
necessary to write ESSL 1.0 code which was incompatible with the OpenGL feature
level 1 implementation in Filament. Rather than adjust the Filament
implementation so that feature level 1 uses the same workarounds as feature
level 0 to emulate GLES 3.0+ features, it's more runtime-efficient to have matc
embed ESSL 1.0 and 3.0 shaders as separate chunks and load the corresponding
one based on the active feature level.
Feature level 0 material shaders must still be written in what is effectively
ESSL 1.0. To assist with this, a small set of compatibility definitions are
introduced when building the ESSL 3.0 variant. These are virtually all
textureXXX() functions, and end up either optimized out or inlined by glslang.
One final effect of this change is that external and 3D samplers are now
properly supported in feature level 0 materials.
the math needs to be maintained in highp, including during the blur
pass.
we add the ability to specify a "precision" qualifier to the "output"
of a post-process material.
we also remove the mediump clamping we used to do on mobile, it shouldn't
be done automatically behind the scenes, it's up to the shaders to do
it if it makes sense.
They're not hardcoded in a database inside MaterialBuilder and are
generated. This will be needed later for ES2 support.
We could actually imagine something more dynamic in the future too.
The feature-level option sets the maximum feature level allowed for
the material. matc will fail if the specified material has a higher
feature level than the value set with the feature-level option. The
default is 3 (max).
This can be used to ensure that materials don't use features above
a specified level.
* Add new alphaToCoverage material property
The alphaToCoverage property lets you enable or disable alpha to coverage
in a material. More importantly it lets you overrides the behavior of
blending: masked which automatically enables alphaToCoverage.
* Update release notes
* minimal backend support for compute
- added api to dispatch a compute shader
- added api to create and bind a ssbo
- added api to read back a buffer
Only implemented in the gl backend
* Add a backend compute test suite
* basic support for compute shaders in matc
this is still very much work-in-progress.
We're not supporting images nor ssbo for now.
* rename UniformInterfaceBlock to BufferInterfaceBlock
* augment BufferInterfaceBlock to support ssbo features
- add support for std430
- add support for ssbo
- add support for variable-size array
- add support for memory qualifiers
* reformat MaterialBuilder
* material format: move subpasses outside of parameters
subpasses now are their own json property instead of being a
"parameter".
* refactor parameter() methods to match Buffer/SamplerInterfaceBlock
We're just shuffling the arguments.
* add support for buffers in .mat files
* filamat now generates buffer blocks (ssbo)
* take feature level into consideration when optimizing shaders
* don't store the 'uniform binding' chunk for level 2 materials
this includes some refactoring/cleanups of MaterialParser
* matinfo: fixes for compute
- separate subpasses from parameters
- don't attempt to print material properties
* check that user materials don't exceed their allowed features
* backend sampler limits now take feature level into account
- in the backend, the constants are now in an array indexed by the
feature level
- samplerBindingMap now asserts only what it can.
- matc (filamat) now logs the user samplers when an error is detected.
in a few places filamat loses the value of targetApi and targetLanguage
and attempt to guess it from other values, this lead to inconsistencies.
we now keep both targetApi and targetLanguage and use them appropriately.
in particular we don't use the optimization level to "guess" what
targetLangage we're on.
In the end this resolve a prior unit test failure and allows us to not
have to use "spirv" rules when generating only GLSL.
* new feature level API for backends
backend can now return a "feature level", each level corresponds to a
"bundle" of features.
Level1: ES3.0 capabilities
Level2: ES3.1 capabilities + 31 textures + cubemap arrays
Currently metal always returns level 1, GL and Vulkan return level 2
if 31 textures or more are supported.
* Add public APIs for feature levels
* Add infrastructure to check feature levels in materials
* validate material feature level on use
The validation is done when creating a renderable. If the engine doesn't
support the material's feature level, an exception is thrown (or assert
if exceptions are not enabled).
* material documentation
* activate ESSL 3.10 for feature level 2
also generate #defines to identify available feature levels
* support for cubemap arrays in the public API
if feature level 2 is supported, cubemap arrays can be used from the
public API.
* add release notes
With VERTEX_DOMAIN_DEVICE the vertex shader doesn't apply the
projection (since the vertices are already in clip space), however,
both TAA and guard bands need to jitter/offset the clip space, and
it is done at the projection level.
We now store the clip space offset separately so that it can be applied
to VERTEX_DOMAIN_DEVICE vertices.
We also introduce a new material parameter, vertexDomainDeviceJittered,
a boolean that controls whether clip space offset (above) is applied.
This is because a VERTEX_DOMAIN_DEVICE material that uses the built-in
projection matrices generally ends-up with the jitter already applied,
this is the case with the Skybox for instance.
Fixes#5917
GL_ES_30 becomes MOBILE
GL_CORE_41 becomes DESKTOP
ShaderModel controls which flavor of GLSL (GL or ES) is used both when
reading and outputting materials.
It's also used to set default quality settings and the default precision
of all fragment shaders.
Technically, Vulkan and Metal don't need this distinction, but the GL
backend does.
This boolean parameter is used with materials that need to access
`getInstanceIndex()` (filament's equivalent to `gl_InstanceIndex`).
It is false by default, and getInstanceIndex() is not accessible.
This is intended to be used in concert with
`RenderableManager::Builder::instances()`.
Variants are no longer just a bit mask, but rather a combination of
some bits, depending on the variant. Because of that the variant filer
must be updated.
Basically we now make a distinction between the "variants" as a public
material API and the actual `Variant` data type.
This change does the impedance match between the two.
Support legacy morphing (morphing with targets supplied via VertexAttributes) for older clients. This gives clients more time to transition over to the new MorphTargetBuffer API.
This changes how we select the "optimized depth vertex shader", but
this shouldn't change the current behavior.
We now select the "optimized depth vertex shader" if and only if the
user code is empty. In that case, we can safely assume we can remove
all the code that's not necessary for the depth, since it is all
controlled by filament.
* API CHANGE: honor user-defined precision, rename SamplerPrecision.
matc now honors 'precision' on non-samplers in mat files, and
the filamat API now allows clients to specify precision for
non-samplers.
This involved flattening a union that is internal to filamat.
* MaterialBuilder: Add Java bindings for precision.
* Add support for transparent shadows
This solution uses an 8x8 Bayer matrix. We could find a better
noise. We also need better filtering of the shadow maps. A PCF
is barely enough and VSM fails without blurring.
* Use a fixed Bayer matrix, fix pre-caching of depth shaders
* Use gradient noise instead of fixed bayer pattern
* Update docs
* Materials can now provide custom lighting/shading
When a material uses the "lit" shading model, customSurfaceShading can
be enabled to replace Filament's lighting implementation. When this
feature is enabled, the material *must* provide the following function
in the fragment shader block:
vec3 surfaceShading(
const MaterialInputs materialInputs,
const ShadingData shadingData,
const LightData lightData
) {
return vec3(1.0); // custom lighting here
}
Please refer to the docs in Materials.html for more information about
this feature and the different values provided by the data structures
passed to the function.
