Both ies and cookies can now exist on a light
We are still not using all the capabilities of an IES profile, such as candela and luminance values we are just using them as a mask for the moment
Issues compiling on mac and linux, will need to update the ies-loader to use torque methods instead of std::
cliffsnotes:
$Core::WetnessTexture = "core/rendering/images/wetMap.png"; //for the influence degree map
probes/skylight have a new canDamp boolean, set to off for probes, on for skylight by default.
:levelinfo has a dampness multiplier (0-1)
kicked up numTextures from 8 to 16 for shaderdata and postfx since that hit the 8 texture-in prior limit, and we've already adopted apis that can handle the higher count
Reorg'd probe init to flow better and be more robust on load
Cleaned up various parts of the probe render manager to be more stable
Fixed issue with crash on release due to numProbe in loops being 0
Updated glsl probe array shader
Beginning of rework of editor settings
Beginning of conversion of asset import config to similar system as editor settings
SPECIAL NOTE: highly suggest https://github.com/GarageGames/Torque3D/pull/1441 or a variation thereof to prevent debug spew and false-postives for occlusion results.
With significant research, development and prototyping assistance from both @andr3wmac (shaders and partial hook work), and @LuisAntonRebollo (additional culling)
System operates as follows:
1) materials are given an additional castDynamicShadows boolean entry. (Default at time of writing is true by request. Personal usage at time of writing defaults to false. value is default-initialized in materialDefinition.cpp. script/gui exposed)
2) lights are given a staticRefreshFreq and dynamicRefreshFreq (in milliseconds). script/gui exposed
3) materials are (effectively) sorted into dynamic and static shadowmap render lists based on flag. (see shadowMapPass.cpp)
4) initial shadowmaps are generated for each light and 'list'.
5) as each refreshFreq times out, the relevant shadowmap for a given light is refreshed.
Special notes:
dynamicRefreshFreq for all lights is set to a (script exposed) 8MS refresh timer.
StaticRefreshFreq for the lions share of lights defaults to 250 MS (1/4 of a second)
scattersky's embedded light, which is intended to operate in a mobile manner, defaults to 8
to reiterate, these are all customizable per-light via script/inspector gui in the case of alternate project needs.
OpenGL and DirectX11 not support FFP, and GFDevice::disableShaders has not the necessary information to decide the shader to be used.
GFDevice::SetupGenericShaders is used instead of GFDevice::disableShaders.
GFDevice::disableShaders will be deprecated on T3D 4.0
Pull Request #125 was to fix Issue #124. However, as reported by a
user, this fix broke the water. This is a partial reversion of those
changes to get the water working again. The fix from Pull #125 will
need to be examined.
