While adding more debug checks to legacy renderer, I closed 2 types of vulnerabilities:
* TYPE_PRIMITIVE would previously read from uninitialized data if only specifying a single color
* Other legacy draw operations would fail in debug AFTER accessing out of bounds memory rather than before
Many calls to glBufferSubData are wrapped in a safe version which checks for out of bounds and exits the draw function if this is detected.
Large FVF allows batching of many custom shaders, but should not join items which have shaders that utilize BUILTINs which would change for each item, because these will not be sent individually, and all joined items would wrongly use the values from the first joined item.
As a result of the GLES specifications being vague about best practice for how buffers should be used dynamically, different GPUs / platforms appear to have different preferences.
Mac in particular seems to have a number of problems in this area, and none of the rendering team uses Macs. So far we have relied on guesswork to choose the best usage, but in an attempt to pin this down, this PR begins to introduce manual selection of options for users to test their configurations.
It can be enabled in the Project Settings
(`rendering/quality/filters/use_debanding`). It's disabled
by default as it has a small performance impact and can make
PNG screenshots much larger (due to how dithering works).
As a result, it should be enabled only when banding is noticeable enough.
Since debanding requires a HDR viewport to work, it's only supported
in the GLES3 backend.
Batching is mostly separated into a common template which can be used with multiple backends (GLES2 and GLES3 here). Only necessary specifics are in the backend files.
Batching is extended to cover more primitives.
Don't apply lighting to objects when they have a lightmap texture and
the light is set to BAKE_ALL. This prevents applying the same direct
light twice on the same object and makes setting up scenes with mixed
lighting much easier.
Option in MeshInstance to enable software skinning, in order to test
against the current USE_SKELETON_SOFTWARE path which causes problems
with bad performance.

Using the operator += in a shader is classified as an 'assign', and so is classified as a write rather than a read. This means that we need to prevent vertex baking on either a write or read (i.e. on usage), rather than just on reads.
Writing to COLOR in a custom shader can result in incorrect results if colors are baked (vertex color and modulate). This PR prevents baking with COLOR output, except under the special circumstances that final modulate is (1, 1, 1, 1), in which case the result will be correct. This should still allow color baking in many scenarios with custom shaders.
In situations where custom canvas shaders read VERTEX values, they could read incorrect global positions rather than local positions where batching had baked item transforms. This PR prevents joining items that read VERTEX built in in shaders, and thus prevents this situation arising (as unjoined items will not bake transforms).
Adding the ability to access MODULATE in the shader breaks when final_modulate is baked into vertex colors (this is a technique used to batch together different colored items). This PR prevents baking vertex colors when MODULATE is detected in the shader.
It also prevents baking when COLOR is read in canvas shaders, which could currently produce the wrong result in the shader if colors were baked. It does not prevent baking if COLOR is only written, which happens in most shaders, and will operate correctly without baking.
This adds 2 new values (items and draw calls) to the performance monitor in a '2d' section, rather than reusing the 3d values in the 'raster' section.
This makes it far easier to optimize games to minimize drawcalls.
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
We're starting a new decade with a well-established, non-profit, free
and open source game engine, and tons of further improvements in the
pipeline from hundreds of contributors.
Godot will keep getting better, and we're looking forward to all the
games that the community will keep developing and releasing with it.
This changes the code path so that `glRenderBufferStorage*` always uses
values appropriate for renderbuffers and `glTexImage2D` never uses an
internalformat meant for buffers.
Fixes#33825.
While OpenGL ES 3.0 and WebGL 2.0 both support non power-of-2 (NPOT)
textures in their specification, the situation seems to be less clear
about *compressed* NPOT textures using repeat or mipmap flags.
At least Chrome on Linux doesn't seem to support this combination,
and a variety of mobile hardware have similar limitations.
As a workaround, we force decompressing such textures when running on
WebGL 2.0, at the cost of loading time and memory usage.
Fixes#33058.
Although the backup USE_SKELETON_SOFTWARE skinning path is currently used when float texture is not supported, the default skinning path still fails when float texture is supported but GL_MAX_VERTEX_TEXTURE_IMAGE_UNITS is 0, i.e. the device cannot read from texture during vertex shader. This PR adds the logic to activate the SKELETON_SOFTWARE path if either of these cases occur, preventing crashes on devices which have this combination of features.
This is a new singleton where camera sources such as webcams or cameras on a mobile phone can register themselves with the Server.
Other parts of Godot can interact with this to obtain images from the camera as textures.
This work includes additions to the Visual Server to use this functionality to present the camera image in the background. This is specifically targetted at AR applications.
The bake mode property of lights previously didn't affect GI probes.
This change makes the GI probe ignore lights that have their bake mode
set to disabled.
