The VSM variant is never needed for unlit materials, it was filtered
out correctly for color shaders but not for the depth shaders.
This removes 4 variants from all unlit materials.
Also improve matinfo variants output.
This happened because the code iterated over the keys of a hashmap,
which obviously were not guaranteed to be in the same order as those
entries where added to the hashmap.
We fix this by adding a "visitor" to the materialchunk, so we can
iterate through it in order and retried the info we need.
* 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
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.
* Begin Sorting SubProjects into Folders
* Add more subprojects to folders
* Add even more subprojects to folders
* Add further subprojects to folders
* Move the last two projects
* Move Resources to a Resources subfolder
* Remove spaces to be stylistically coherent
* Revert Improper CMake Modifications
* Revert erroneous line removals
* Only specify sdl2's folder on WIN32
* Add the shader subprojects to a Generated folder
* Move shaders to Filament/Shaders
* 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
In most places this is simply replaced by `std::string_view`.
We also change a few internal/private headers so they accept
`std::string_view` instead of `utils::CString`.
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 is not intended to be used yet because we're not currently
checking that cubemap array are actually supported, however, if they
are, they should work.
This was too tricky, it highlights that we definitely need refactor this
to share code with the flattener / unflattener pipeline. I'll look at
that next.
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()`.
There were two places where we were doing unaligned reads: one when
computing the hash for the material identifier, and one when parsing
the chunk in ShaderReplacer.
We also had a potential overflow since civetweb does not add a trailing
null to incoming WebSockets messages.
The JSON response to /api/active became malformed after #4465 because
raw hex strings need to be enclosed by quotes.
This commit changes the variant format in the /api/materials response
to be consistent with one used for /api/active. By using integers
instead of strings, we're avoiding the need to parse integers at run
time.
The JSON error did not appear in the Chrome console because it was being
silenced as a hack to appease "matinfo --web-server". I fix this by
removing the hack and simply emitting a valid response when there's
no live backend.
Also fixed the display of materials, which were always being marked
as active even when they had no active variants.
Previously, if you accidentally had two matdbg tabs open in Chrome, the
web app would hang. This fixes two bugs that prevented multiple
simultaneous clients:
1) The websocket handler broadcasted edit events to only the most
recent connection.
2) The number of server threads was only 2, but the actual web app
requires at least 2 threads for each instance, due to the
externally linked CSS file.
