Shifted every-frame RT allocation to be stored in advancedLightBinManager
Remove deprecated references to dynamicShadowMap in light materials
Updated spotLight shaders to remove deprecated dynamic shadowmap reference which was causing a crash when spotlights had shadows turned on
Added GLSL version of Viz_SurfaceProperties so it works on both APIs
Also disables the Paraboloid shadowmap type, as it is non-functional.
Disabled light animations by default so as to not waste processing time if not needed
Sets point lights' shadow types to be cubemap by default, and lowers the overdark factor to make them look cleaner and not exacerbate aliasing.
Initial implementation of changeable TSStatic materials via material slots and drag and drop of material assets onto world editor from AB
Updated Volumetric Fog to support ShapeAsset for it's model data
Added cmake option to hide literal filename fields if the class supports asset fields for the same input
Added light viz modes to see diffuse, specular and detail lighting modes(currently just sun)
New raycast console function to return back material of hit object
Moved GameObject logic to SceneObject and started fixing up of editor behavior to allow any SceneObject to be converted into a GO, along with all supported behavior such as instance-template management and spawning GO via drag-and-drop from AB
Fixed inspector field tooltip text to be positioned in inspector footer properly again
Drag and drop of shape asset attempts to drop at raycast position now, instead of just at the camera ray position
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.
- Fix for issue https://github.com/GarageGames/Torque3D/issues/525 This
fix takes into account the skewed view into the world when you have a
projection offset and the ability to see further into the scene at the
edges opposite to the offset.
- SceneCullingState now has two frustum rather than one: a culling
frustum and camera frustum.
- The camera frustum should be referenced when you need the projection
matrix or don't want a skewed frustum.
- The culling frustum should be referenced during any scene culling or
when determining what dynamic geometry to render. It currently skews
itself to take into account any projection offset (automatically
calculated in SceneCullingState constructor).
- When there is no projection offset, the camera frustum and culling
frustum are the same. This usually means any time when not using the
Oculus Rift.
- Side by side rendering implemented throughout the graphics pipeline.
- New GuiTSCtrl renderStyle property is set to "stereo side by side" to
activate.
- You set an IDisplayDevice on the GameConnection to define any vertical
FOV, projection offset, and stereo eye offset properties required for
the stereo rendering (no display device included with this commit).
- Full and Empty templates updated with correct scripts and shaders.
