This fixes dynamic lighting and SSAO when a viewport is not in 0,0.
In practice this currently happens only when all post-processing is
disabled.
Instead of using gl_FragCoord we introduce a new API,
getNormalizedViewportCoord(), which as the name implies returns
normalized [0, 1] viewport coordinates with origin at the bottom-left,
on all platforms.
This is implemented in this PR by interpolating gl_Position.
Emissive was previously defined in exposure compensation stops, which
was confusing to many. It is now a value in nits, with the alpha
channel controlling how much the camera exposure affects the emissive.
At 0, the emissive value is just added to the final pixel color, at
1 the emissive value is multiplied by the exposure just like with
regular lights.
The intensity of the emissive property can be computed from an
exposure value (EV) easily with the following formula:
emissive.rgb = emissive.rgb * pow(2.0, EV - 3.0);
This formula is available as Exposure::luminance(float) already
in Filament.
The user can now choose amongst 3 specular AO methods:
- None, specAO is off
- Simple, specAO is inferred from roughness and diffuse AO
- Bent normals, specAO is computed accurately from cone intersections
The last method is more expensive but produces the best results.
This change also fixes a few issues:
- Rename materialRefraction() and materialRefractionType() for
consistency
- Fixes user time in shaders
* Add support for bent normals
Bent normals can be enabled via the bentNormal property of a material.
When specular occlusion is enabled, bent normals improve the quality
of the computation.
* Save a couple of multiplications in bent specular AO
When dealing with thin objects we really have two thicknesses to
consider, the thickness in the direction of the normal, which
corresponds to the value used for solid objects, and the thickness of
the object's walls, which generally is a constant.
Reusing thickness in the later case is problematic for assets that have
a thickness map, but are rendered hollow.
In the future we can even imagine handling double-sided hollow objects
by using the thickness information -- e.g. a hollow cube.
Normally the IOR is deduced from the reflectance, but now we allow to
specify the IOR instead or in addition to the reflectance.
In the later case, it's possible to create physically impossible
materials, but this can be useful for artistic reasons.
* Add the ability to modify clip space coordinates in the vertex shader
This introduces MaterialVertexInputs.clipSpaceTransform, a mat4 that
is applied to gl_Position before exiting the vertex stage.
* Address code review comments
Inspired by our recent scissor change (#1639) but motivated by gltfio,
which was forced to create a ton of ubershaders (see #1562).
Tested with:
gltf_viewer -u ../glTF-Sample-Models/2.0/TextureSettingsTest/glTF/TextureSettingsTest.gltf
* Improve materials under white furnace test
Two major changes:
- Mobile target now implements a cheaper variant of the off specular
peak bias (which moves the reflected vector towards the normal).
This greatly helps with rough surfaces that may otherwise point
toward a bright part of the IBL.
- The indirect diffuse love is now properly attenuated to avoid adding
the energy reflected by the specular layer. This allows dielectrics
to be correctly energy conserving under a white furnace.
- Tweak the (hacky) clear coat layer attenuation to behave properly
under a white furnace.
* Use the same reflected vector modification everywhere
This works by aliasing CUSTOM0 - CUSTOM7 to morphing attributes, and by
extending our existing skinning variant.
This PR was tested against some upcoming changes to gltfio.
Issue #1149, #1417
This is a prep step for the upcoming morph feature and does not require
a bump to our material version number.
Stay tuned for a new sample app that demonstrates this feature.
* Add screen and multiply blending modes
This change also fixes a sorting issue: different sorting modes
were sorted in different buckets which is incorrect. We want
to sort only by distance.
* Update release notes and Java API
* Fix build error
This replaces the previous "curvature to roughness" method. Both are related
and rely on the screen space variance of geometric normals but this new
solution offers more control (the screen space variance and the clamping
threshold can be controlled).
* Add new shading model to Filament for specularGlossiness.
This adds a shading model based on KHR_materials_pbrSpecularGlossiness.
The corollary gltfio change will be in an upcoming PR.
* Improve documentation for specular-glossiness
* MaterialInstance now has setMaskThreshold for convenience.
* Materials now support dynamic doubleSided property.
This does not change the format of material packages because they
already have both getDoubleSided() and getDoubleSidedSet().
The only way in which this change could impact existing applications is
that materials that explicity set doubleSided to "false" will now
respect the material's culling mode, rather than forcing it to NONE.
Fixes gltf_viewer with littlest_tokyo in ubershader mode.
Fixes#963.
* JNI for dynamic material properties.
* Add underscore prefix to internal material params.
* Remove un-needed mat info field.
* Add postLightingColor property to materials
This property can be used to modify the color computed in the lighting
passes of the materials. That color is blended with the computed color
according to the postLightingBlending option (add, transparent or opaque).
* Remove test
* Update docs
* Address code review comment
* Switch postLightingColor default blend mode to transparent
* Add specular anti-aliasing properties to materials
curvatureToRoughness
limitOverInterpolation
These techiques were supposed to be enabled by default on
desktop but it turns out they were broken. They must now
be enabled manually on each material instead (and work on
mobile).
* Update docs/Materials.md.html
* Turn on shaders optimization by default
Release builds of Filament only work well with optimize shaders,
turning optimizations on by default will help avoid mismatches.
This change also adds -g to disable all optimizations, for debug
builds.
* Use -g on debug builds
* Use -g on debug builds
* Update tutorial_redball.md to remove matc's -O
* Update tutorial_suzanne.md to remove matc's -O
* Use -g in debug builds
This calculates the modulo of the user time by a given value, using
the high precision user time. This is useful for animations without
having to worry about resetting the time.
THIS CHANGE BREAKS MATERIALS.
This adds getUserTime() in shaders/materials, which returns the time
in second since Renderer::resetUserTime() was called.
Two values are provided, the time in second encoded as a float and
the difference between that and the double value, which together allows
to perform high precision time computation when needed.
This change allows longer running animations in materials. Using only
the float value, give millisecond resolution for more than 4h.
* Add clear coat normal map support
This change allows to set a separate normal map for the clear coat layer of a material.
* Document the new clearCoatNormal property
* Fix typo
