while not a major issue per-se, the sheer number of times the engine has to jump back in memory and backfill data in a given class can add up. First run of... many.,
When attempting to select a camera Object(so going into the editor, going into the freefloating camera and then back to the player camera and selecting the freefloating one) while the material editor was open, it would crash because it attempts to access the shapebase object's shapeInstance - but cameras don't have a shape.
This fixes it so it makes sure there's a shapeinstance before trying to get the material data.
A lot of instances where some function args are not actually modified in any way, meaning that it is better for performance to convert them into const references. This prevents an additional copy, which can help performance.
- Updated to work with 0.5.x SDK
- Uses Oculus Rendering rather than PostFX
- Stereo rendering refactored so more rendering info is grabbed from the DisplayDevice
- Implements an Offscreen Canvas for in-game gui with oculus
- Message dialogs and metrics display can now go to the OffScreen Canvas (if oculus demo is setup correctly)
We essentially just need to remember to Update ShapeBase::Thread::position
every time we advance the thread in the shape. With a little bit of
supporting code these changes will be passed to the client's shape.
- ShapeBaseData has two new properties. cameraCanBank indicates that
the game object may bank its eye/camera, if supported by the object.
mountedImagesBank indicates that mounted images should bank with the
eye/camera in first person view. Both default to false.
- Player supports 1st person eye and 3rd person camera banking when
making use of the new ExtendedMove class.
- Camera class supports banking when making use of the new ExtendedMove
class.
- GameConnection now has an idea of a control scheme. This determines
how game objects should respond to input events. A control scheme may
be set by either the server or client. Current control schemes are:
-- Absolute rotation (likely though the ExtendedMove class)
-- Add relative yaw (from mouse or gamepad) to absolute rotation.
-- Add relative pitch (from mouse or gamepad) to absolute rotation.
- Player class supports the new control schemes when using the
ExtendedMove class.
- Camera class supports the new control scheme when using the
ExtendedMove class.
The ShapeBase class tests if all of its meshes are hidden and if so,
then it doesn't render during that frame. However, if there are no
meshes in the ShapeBase and only nodes then rendering is also skipped.
Unfortunately, this also skips the rendering of any mounted images.
This change allows for a mesh-less skeleton to render any mounted
images.
