added dynamic reload on editor profiles when the theme is changed via editor
Adjusted direct filename fields to just be hidden, not disabled(avoids breaking legacy content)
Added ability to update asset references in a given folder path
Added WIP ability to scan for and update module dependencies
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
enhanced-meshroad -- adds option for building top-surface-only PolyList.
polysoup-zodiacs -- Changes made for rendering zodiacs on polysoup objects.
groundplane-zodiacs -- groundPlane customizations for rendering zodiacs on them.
special-types -- defines type bits for interior-like and terrain-like types.
special-types -- defines a type bit for polysoup objects.
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.,
- Supports GL, D3D9 & D3D11
- Extends vertex formats & shadergen to support blend indices and weights
- Adds basic support for using 4x3 matrices for shader constants
- Supports software fallback
renderPrePassMgr.cpp related:
A) shifting .addFeature( MFT_XYZ); calls from ProcessedShaderMaterial::_determineFeatures to ProcessedPrePassMaterial::_determineFeatures
B) mimicking the "// set the XXX if different" entries from RenderMeshMgr::render in RenderPrePassMgr::render
C) fleshing out ProcessedPrePassMaterial::getNumStages() so that it shares a 1:1 correlation with ProcessedShaderMaterial::getNumStages()
D) causing inline void Swizzle<T, mapLength>::ToBuffer( void *destination, const void *source, const dsize_t size ) to silently fail rather than fatally assert if a source or destination buffer is not yet ready to be filled. (support for #customTarget scripted render targets)
Reflections:
A) removing reflectRenderState.disableAdvancedLightingBins(true); entries. this would otherwise early out from prepass and provide no color data whatsoever.
B) removing the fd.features.addFeature( MFT_ForwardShading ); entry forcing all materials to be forward lit when reflected.
C) 2 things best described bluntly as working hacks:
C1) when reflected, a scattersky is rotated PI along it's z then x axis in order to draw properly.
C2) along similar lines, in terraincellmaterial, we shut off culling if it's a prepass material.
Skies: scattersky is given a pair of rotations for reflection purposes, all sky objects are given a z value for depth testing.
