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
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.
- 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.
