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
also supress warning for imageassets not loading a texture in nulldevice, and early out of _determineFeatures shadergen methods under the same conditions
Swapped the water's disableTrueReflections variable to be enableTrueReflections for simplicity and consistency(also fixed a persistent typo)
Swapped disableVerticalSync to be enableVerticalSync for simplicity and consistency
Swapped disableParallaxMapping to be enableParallaxMapping for simplicity and consistency
Fix click detection on slider mode entries for guiGameSettingsCtrl so the click position correctly matches the percentage
Fixed problem where postFX initialization would always exec default.postfxpreset.tscript, even if a level's got it's own preset, which can cause problems
Fixed range field type behavior so that editing the values applies in real time, and also consistently applies between slider and text field
Fixes project import to comply to above change
Makes Material default mEffectColor to white instead of whatever default value it comes up with due to memset
Also updates importers to correctly handle this change
Adds ability for taml XML serialization to properly assign array'd fields
Adds 'inheritFrom' field to simobjects for when objects with parent objects are serialized
AssetBase how inherits from SimGroup so it can have objects like material definitions embedded in them for save/load in the taml definition file
Updated loading/handling logic in terrain material asset to be more similar to regular material assets
while that certainly works for most cases it falls apart when dealing with postfx where it's an unnamed array of variable types of inputs.
shifted the profile assignment to #define INIT_IMAGEASSET_ARRAY(name, profile, index) so there's still a really obvious point where you can see the default setting, even if it's not in the more desireable OG definition spot
for postfx in particular, given we can swap that, provided an example of how to do just that
Processed core, tools and default modules to utilize assets
Converted all console types that were string based, such as TypeImageFilename to utilize const char*/the string table, which avoids a lot of type swapping shenanigans and avoids string corruption
Removed unneeded MainEditor mockup module
Removed some unused/duplicate image assets from the tools
Re-enables logic for looking up existing material(generally just for in-place autoimport) and creates the material asset off of that. Also adds logic to look up the mapTo if it exists if the material name lookup fails.
Adds initial pass at re-enabling the sis file support for shape importing. In the event the UseManualShapeConfigRules setting is disabled(which it is by default) it will try and find the matching sis file and apply the rules from that to the config. Once the processing/import is done on the shape, the cached values of the main config are restored again.
Adds initial fbx.sis file. Needs to have the fields standardized to the config names.
Fixes the terrain asset creation, makes the loading logic go through the asset auto-import behavior when a filename or assetid is bound that is not found.
Corrects terrain material binding to properly save and load
Makes the terrain asset inspector fields work as expected.
Takes the makeFullPath in findTSShapeConstructor and turn it into a string before passing it along to the Filename to make stricter compilers happy
Removed some referenced to fields that don't exist in the current build
Removed unneeded ASM language activation for the cmake files
Adjustments to material map assembling macros to better comply to stricter compilers
Added initial behavior for ImageAssets to hold a list of GFX resources of different texture profiles to avoid mem leaks with incorrect-typed usages
Added function to ImageAsset to get best-fit asset, allowing for fallbacks if the requested assetID is not found
Added function to ShapeAsset to get best-fit asset, allowing for fallbacks if the requested assetID is not found
Disabled fields for dynamic and static shadowmap refresh rates
Moved noShape model to core/rendering/shapes to place it in a more logical module position
Added an include to avoid undefined type compile error and removed unneeded semicolon from zone code
Added call to reload probe textures when a reloadTextures call is made
Adjusted default directional light shadowmap settings to not be as extreme
Added utility function to probe manager to allow any class to request a 'best fit' list of probes that would affect a given location, allowing other classes such as fog or particles to utilize IBL. Also updated probeManager's forward rendering to utilize same function to reduce code duplication.
Shifted shape loader code to utilize assimp for loader consistency and testing
Changed render bin used for SSAO postfx so it runs at the right time
Made Core_Rendering module scan for assets
Updated loose file references to a number of assets to follow proper formatting
Refactored asset import code to follow a more consistent object heirarchy structure on importing assets, allowing more reliable cross-referencing between inbound items
Updated asset import logic for materials/images so that they properly utilize ImageType. Images correctly save out the assigned image type, materials reference the images' type to know what map slot they should be used in. Importer logic also updated to better find-and-add associated images based on type.
Cleaned up a bunch of old, outdated code in the asset importer
Added initial handling for in-place importing of files without needing to process them through the UI.
Added ability to edit module script from RMB context menu if torsion path is set
Updated list field code for variable inspector to utilize correct ownerObject field
leverage the fact shadergen spits out a modified material per pass, in this instance the shadow pass, to basically flip the translucent aspect off if you've got both translucency and alphatesting flipped on.
Fixed loose file bindings for all associated slots in level asset, such as postFX file, decals, etc
Expanded TSStatic onInspect testcase to parse materialSlots and hook-in a specialized material field for editing/quick reference from the inspector
Adjusted expand behavior of guiTree to be more reliable
Added internal name 'stack' to inspectorGroup's stack child objects for easier access to add programatic fields
Removed redundant PreMult translucency type code
Added setting of feature so probes work when in forward/basic lit mode
Corrected indexing error in SQLiteObject class so it properly parses with the updated console API
Tweaked the FOV setting logic in GameConnection::onControlObjectChange to not be spammy
Fixed var when trying to bind the camera to the client
Added project setting field to dictate the default render mode between Forward or Deferred
Integrated MotionBlur PostFX into updated PostFX Editor paradigm and exposed the samples uniform as an editable field
Integrated DOF PostFX into updated PostFX Editor paradigm
Updated setting group name for vignette postFX
Shifted shaderCache to be in data/cache along with other cached files
Added helper function to replace strings in a file
Fixed ExampleCppObject asset to have correct loose file references
Adjusted editor default level logic so it can be modifed and then stored, as well as reset back to the original default
Fixed verve reference to root scene group
Adjusted location of a nonmodal gui profile so it loads at the correct time
Reorganized AssetBrowser loading and refresh logic so it doesn't stack multiple refresh requests back-to-back causing lag
Updated the search behavior to search not just the current address, but all child folders as well, making it far more useful
Initial work into zip and folder drag-and-drop asset importing support
Removed the import config setting for 'always display material maps' as it is redundant with the new importer context menu actions
Updated example asset type file
Ensured all asset types have proper handling for move, rename and delete actions
Fixed double-click behavior on folders in the AB
Fixed CPP asset preview
Added better logic to discern if a top-level folder belongs to a module or not in the AB directory browser
Added ability to convert a non-module top-level folder in the AB into a module
Added initial hooks for being able to generate a new Editor Tool, similar to how the AB can generate modules
Renamed CPP asset template files to have the .template so they aren't accidentally picked up by cmake
Fixed convex editor's material handling to work with AB and reference back properly
Updated AB images for folder up/down navigation buttons, and the breadcrumb divider arrow
Made PostFX Editor properly allow for input pass-through so you can still edit the level with it open
Added some additional common text gui profiles
Disabled calls to old editor settings logic in various editors to remove spam
Added callOnModules call so tools can initialize properly when the world editor is opened
Fixed logic test for visualizers
Added ability for cmake to scan tools directory for any tools that add source files
