The issue was caused here by usage of deprecated GL_CURRENT_PROGRAM
which was returning rubbish value.
Now we use imm API and create vertex format prior to immBindProgram.
This made us required to have some sort of state passed from setup
function to actual drawing.
Note: I’d assume gawain equivalent to glDrawArrays would be batches? But
for two lines drawn twice this looks totally overkill anyway, so
switched back to basic immediate-mode-like API.
A bit frustrating to work on this code, since afaict you cannot check
the results in Blender, being mostly unused currently...
This was slightly less obvious, especially particle billboard drawing.
That one now requires 1.5 times more space in VBOs and ParticleDrawData
buffers, since we have to draw two triangles per particle, instead of a
single quad... And diagonal of each quad is now drawn in wire mode, not
sure how much we consider this an issue (as in, will this particle draw
code change a lot in future?).
From quick check on the web seems there is no other way to do anyway. :/
Do not recompute both points's 2D coordinates for each segments, we can
copy over from previous one... Does not gives any measurable speedup off
hands, though.
Using Texture Arrays to store shadow maps so less texture slots are used when shading. This means a large amount of shadows can be supported.
Support Projection Shadow Map for sun like in old BI/BGE.
Support Cube Shadow Map for Point/Spot/Area lights. the benefit of using it for spot light is that the spot angle does not change shadow resolution (at the cost of more memory used). The implementation of the cubemap sampling is targeted for 3.3 core. We rely on 2D texture arrays to store cubemaps faces and sample the right one manualy. Significant performance improvement can be done using Cubemap Arrays on supported hardware.
Shadows are only hardware filtered. Prefiltered shadows and settings comming next.
This is an auto-generated list, crossing gl-deprecated.h, glew.h and the
Blender code. It allows Blender to build with core profile.
WITH_OPENGL_LEGACY=ON: nothing changes
WITH_OPENGL_LEGACY=OFF and WITH_GL_PROFILE_CORE=OFF:
It stubs deprecated legacy calls.
WITH_OPENGL_LEGACY=OFF and WITH_GL_PROFILE_CORE=ON:
It stubs deprecated legacy calls thus allowing Blender to build with
core profile only.
Technically you only want to use WITH_OPENGL_LEGACY=OFF when
WITH_GL_PROFILE_CORE=ON. But it doesn't hurt to have it working for both
scenarios.
