* debugging PCF mode
This mode always uses a hard PCF and takes a
slightly slower code path.
* dynamic shadowmap visualization
The directional shadowmap visualizer is implemented behind a
specialization constant. Add the DebugRegistry infrastructure to be
able to update the spec-constant at runtime and have a subset of
all materials invalidated.
This allows to toggle the visualization at runtime using a debug
property.
This is also a proof of concept that we can update spec-constants
at runtime; we could probably leverage this work for engine-wide
shader configurations.

- shadows are now stable (in stable mode) when an IBL rotation is
used.
- fix the shadow transform option which didn't work when an IBL rotation
was used
- also use the x-axis as a reference for the "up" direction when
computing the light space matrix so that we don't fall into the
degenerate case when the light points straight down, which is a
common case

* Add skinning and morphing samples to check functionality
* Implement skinning for more than four bones pair vertex
The API allows defining an unlimited number of bone indices and weights of primitives. Data is defined in building process of the renderable manager. Backward compatibility with the original solution.
Skinning of vertices is calculated on GPU, data is transferred to the vertex shader in the texture.
Functionally this shouldn't be too different, but we have some
improvements:
- better detection of "no shadows" cases
- more computations done in light-space, which should result in
better light frustum.
- spit the code into several static functions
- use the geometric normal to apply the shadow bias. This affects
cascades > 0 and spot/point lights.
- use the scene's origin as a reference point for stabilizing the
shadowmap, this is more robust.
- clamp directional shadowmap correctly to the 1-texel border, which
needs to be reachable, as it is a valid value.
- don't snap the shadowmap to texel boundaries if stable mode is not
active (before we only didn't do it based on lispsm). Stable mode can
make the shadow unstable when both the camera and the scene move
together, so it's better to have a more predictable API where
"stable" mode means that the snapping occurs and doesn't otherwise.
- add "far origin" distance slider to the debug ui

this is implemented by here by using the skybox texture and blurring it
with the irradiance filter + mipmapping. This only creates a subtle
anisotropic phase-function effect.
This works by making the fog an entity which can be used to create
a TransformManager component an participate to the transform hierarchy.
This feature can be used as more advanced way to set the fog's floor,
which now can have an orientation (essentially be a plane).
This is useful for coordinate systems that are not y-up.
- -m option now works with "directory_*.png" or just "*.png"
- "color" replaced by "albedo" to mach other places in the source tree
- fixed warnings
- clear the background when IBL is not used
* Calculate view vector without using camera eye position
* Fix compilation error (during parsing the material when a height map is passed in)
* Add SUN light to the scene
* 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
This is because most android devices only support 16 texture in the
shaders (94.4%), so we can't realistically have feature level 2 demand
that.
Instead feature level 2 enables compute/ES3.1 features.
This is a feature request from Google. It allows users to "preload" an
asset, ie you can now create all VertexBuffer objects, Texture objects,
etc, without actually creating any entities or renderable components.
In the past we used TransformManager to help out with computing the big
asset-level bounding box, but now we use `gltf_node_transform_world()`
because entities might not yet exist.
One minor side effect is that `FilamentAsset::getBoundingBox()` now
returns the AABB that was determined at load time, and does not account
for instances. As a result, our `gltf_instances` sample app looks
slightly different but this is expected.
- fix View::setVisibleLayers to match code. By default only layer 0
is active, despite the documentation stating otherwise.
- add a helper to enable/disable layers more easily
- don't use layer 0,1,2 for the overdraw function as they were used by
FilamentApp in "multi view" mode.
Prior to this change, `recomputeBoundingBoxes` was an opt-in config
parameter in ResourceLoader. It is now a method on FilamentInstance.
The old API did not work for dynamically created instances. Since this
is a relatively obscure feature, we considered removing it completely,
especially since the computation requires the presence of CPU-side
vertex data combined with the transform hierarchy.
Instead of removing the feature, we decided to move it to a better
place. This paves the way for some upcoming improvements, which include
reducing the memory footprint for assets. It also improves overall code
organization and separation of concerns.
This change was motivated by some internal work at Google and has the
benefit of simplifying the gltfio API and implementation. There are 2
major API changes:
(1) Consolidate separate loader entry points for GLB and GLTF.
The distinction between GLB and GLTF can be made from the file content
alone, because GLB has a 4-byte magic string in its header. There is no
need for separate entry points. Clients do not (and should not) need
to check the file name extension.
(2) Remove the distinction between "instanced" and "non-instanced"
glTF assets.
In the new scheme, all assets have at least 1 instance.
Broadly speaking, in gltfio an "asset" is a collection of Filament
objects like textures and vertex buffers, while an "instance" is a
collection of entities and components (e.g. the transform hierarchy).
This API change makes life easier for clients because they no longer
need to decide a priori if they will ever need to add instances.
This change also moves some public-facing methods from FilamentAsset to
FilamentInstance:
- getSkinCount, getSkinNameAt
- getJointCountAt, getJointsAt
- attachSkin, detachSkin
* Begin Sorting SubProjects into 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

* Only specify sdl2's folder on WIN32
* Add the shader subprojects to a Generated folder
* Move shaders to Filament/Shaders
- getNear() and getCullingFar() now return doubles
- updated documentation
- all setProjection() calls can now throw (when enabled) and will
do so if preconditions are not met (instead of setting a default
projection).
- Frustum can now be logged on debug builds
auto-instancing can have some overhead, so when it is known that the
scene doesn't have identical primitives, it is better to disable it.
(disabled by default).
Also add some missing bindings for `enableAccurateTranslations`.
We still use resgen for convience, but the archive is now passed in
from the client application.
This will allow us to shrink the gltfio Android library (stay tuned).
This optimizes and cleans up some code from a 3P contributor.
When computing a bounding box, there was no need for an inner loop
through the entire skins array.
Tested using the torus model in #4973 and the `-r` flag in gltf_viewer.
