In the flow where VK_KHR_CREATE_RENDERPASS_2_EXTENSION_NAME does not exist
VkAttachmentReference are created inside a loop and their backing buffer is referenced in the subpass object.
the VkAttachmentReference vectors are freed once the loop exists, causing the subpass to point to freed data.
Add all the VkAttachmentReference to a vector in the scope of the entire function, to ensure they are not freed until vkCreateRenderPass is called
This commit ensures a known backface culling state when rendering, even
if no depth prepass is used. This fixes backside culling not being
applied properly in some situations, most notably in scenes that only
use backside culling on mobile platforms.
- Rename all instances of `capture_start()` and `capture_end()` to their new
names. Fixes#72892.
- More internal renames to match what was started in #69120.
- Use `override` consistently so that such refactoring bugs can be caught.
- Harmonize the order of definition of the overridden virtual methods in each
audio driver.
- Harmonize prototype for `set_output_device` and `set_input_device`.

Change instances of audio properties 'device' to 'output_device',
and instances of audio properties 'capture_device' to 'input_device',
as well as their subsequent getter & setter functions.
Update the docs to reflect these changes, as well as the
3-to-4 converter for GDScript and CSharp to make proper
conversions (only exception is 'device' since that name
is too vague and might replace non-AudioServer related
instances, such as user comments and variables).
This does not change internal references to references like
'Render Client' and 'Capture Client' in WASAPI; such is outside the
scope of this commit. This also does not change ALSA's references,
considering that it uses 'device' to mean input and output
interchangeably.
Other references are changed, however where applicable,
to be consistent with the new AudioServer methods and property
names.
* Only two texture import modes for low/high quality now:
* S3TC/BPTC
* ETC2/ASTC
* Makes sense given this is the general preferred and most compatible combination in most platforms.
* Removed lossy_quality from VRAM texture compression options. It was unused everywhere.
* Added a new "high_quality" option to texture import. When enabled, it uses BPTC/ASTC (BC7/ASTC4x4) instead of S3TC/ETC2 (DXT1-5/ETC2,ETCA).
* Changed MacOS export settings so required texture formats depend on the architecture selected.
This solves the following problems:
* Makes it simpler to import textures as high quality, without having to worry about the specific format used.
* As the editor can now run on platforms such as web, Mac OS with Apple Silicion and Android, it should no longer be assumed that S3TC/BPTC is available by default for it.
Normally dependencies are only set dirty when changed during culling, but that misses changes that happen in the renderer (like a new shader being set in a material)
As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
Implements basic ASTC support:
* Only 4x4 and 8x8 block sizes.
* Other block sizes are too complex to handle for Godot image compression handling. May be implemented sometime in the future.
The need for ASTC is mostly for the following use cases:
* Implement a high quality compression option for textures on mobile and M1 Apple hardware.
* For this, the 4x4 is sufficient, since it uses the same size as BPTC.
ASTC supports a lot of block sizes, but the benefit of supporting most of them is slim, while the implementation complexity in Godot is very high.
Supporting only 4x4 (and 8x8) solves the real problem, which is lack of a BPTC alternative on hardware where it's missing.
Note: This does not yet support encoding on import, an ASTC encoder will need to be added.

Non-exhaustive list of case-sensitive renames:
GDExtension -> GDNative
GDNATIVE -> GDEXTENSION
gdextension -> gdnative

Originally these functions were exposed on all GLSL ES 300 devices. However, that causes a build error as Android devices expose the *Unorm4x8 functions despite them not being in the ES 300 spec

This uses a similar multipass approach to blend shapes
as Godot 3.x, the major difference here is that we
need to convert the normals and tangents to octahedral
for rendering.
Skeletons work the same as the Vulkan renderer except the bones
are stored in a texture as they were in 3.x.
This includes collision (2D SDF, Box, Sphere, Heightmap),
attraction (Box, Sphere), and all sorting modes.
This does not include 3D SDF collisions, trails, or
manual emission.
GLAD 1 creates unusable loaders for EGL, while the newly released GLAD 2
does not, so for consistency I thought that it would be a good idea to
uniform things beforehand. While it had some API changes some renames
were all that was needed and everything works like before, at least on
the Wayland branch.
I've kept the structure identical, although this new generator has quite
a few hefty features, such as a single header mode.
I've also added GLAD to `thirdparty/README.md`, but I haven't specified
that in the commit title because it's a very small "fix".
Interleaving draw_rect calls with and without a texture forces every rect to
have its own draw call. In this case it meant that there is a draw call for every single
tile in the atlas. This change makes it so the renderer can batch draw calls
which reduced the draw call count by a factor of 512
- Removed empty paragraphs in XML.
- Consistently use bold style for "Example:", on a new line.
- Fix usage of `[code]` when hyperlinks could be used (`[member]`, `[constant]`).
- Fix invalid usage of backticks for inline code in BBCode.
- Fix some American/British English spelling inconsistencies.
- Other minor fixes spotted along the way, including typo fixes with codespell.
- Don't specify `@GlobalScope` for `enum` and `constant`.
This allows using texture_2d_get on all platforms which is needed for the get_image function
This commit also fixes some OpenGL warnings on the Web platform that came from attempting to map a buffer with zero length
This argument is now non optional, but this never hits the same bad access.
I voted to simplify the code here since the argument is never used optionally in our codebase.
For some reason AFAICT mesa reports a feature as enabled even when its
extension isn't supported. The Vulkan specification says nothing aboutd
this so this is technically more of a workaround, but it works.
Previously, only forward basis distance from the camera was used.
This means that unnecessarily high LOD levels were used for objects located to the side of the camera.
The distance from the camera origin is now used, independently of direction.
Replace all TODO uses of `#warning` by proper TODO comments, and will open
matching bug reports to keep track of them.
We don't have a great track record fixing TODOs, but I'd wager we're even
worse for fixing these "TODO #warning" so we should prohibit this usage.
- Outright disable spammy warnings due to past or present GCC bugs:
* `-Wno-strict-overflow` for GCC 7.
* `-Wno-type-limits` for GCC before 11 (regressed in 9/10, might work in
earlier releases but at this stage we don't care).
* `-Wno-return-type` for GCC 12/13 (regression, still not fixed).
- Enable extra warnings conditionally when broken on earlier GCC:
* `-Wnoexcept` was removed due to an upstream regression in GCC 9, could
be re-enabled (but commented out for now as we actually have `-Wnoexcept`
warnings to fix.
* `-Wlogical-op` was broken on our variadic templates before GCC 11, now
seems fine.
Mainly:
- Make `max_descriptors_per_pool` project setting Vulkan-specific.
- Use a common, render driver agnostic magic FourCC for shader binary data.
- Downgrade spirv_reflect to Vulkan-only dependency.
- Add a `RENDER_DRIVER_*` macro to GLSL shader code for per-driver customizations.
This removes the countless small UBO writes we had before
and replaces them with a single large write per render pass.
This results in much faster rendering on low-end devices
but improves speed on all devices.
End users would get spammed with messages of varying verbosity due to the
mess that thirdparty layers/extensions and drivers seem to leave in their
wake, making the Windows registry a bottomless pit of broken layer JSON.
I'm all for helping end users clean up mess in their registry / system paths
for Vulkan ICDs, layers and extensions, but the way this is done by
VK_EXT_debug_utils is just horrible - and the way for them to fix it (manual
edit of system files) is also not a good thing to recommend.
Closes countless issues where users think Godot is broken because it reports
weird errors.
- `LIBC_FILEIO_ENABLED` wasn't defined anywhere, even in _other platforms_.
- `NO_NETWORK` is also never defined. It probably isn't enough anyway to
disable network APIs in the current codebase.
- `UNIX_SOCKET_UNAVAILABLE` is never defined in this code but used by some
other platforms, clarify that.
- `NO_STATVFS` can be removed as Android supports it since API level 19,
which is our current min SDK level. It's also only used for
`DirAccessUnix::get_space_left()` which is anyway overridden by
`DirAccessJAndroid::get_space_left()` so it shouldn't make a difference.
* Fixed documentation for `DirAccess.get_space_left()`.
- `NO_FCNTL` is likely also a remnant of early Android days, in current NDK
r23 it seems to be available. Also cleaned up unused `fcntl.h` includes.
- `NO_ALLOCA` is never defined, and we use alloca in many places now.
`CreateDirectoryW()` chokes on absolute paths that contain `..`
example: "C:\\workspace\\..\\games\\assets"
Simplifying the path before creating the dir fixes this.
- `_DEBUG` is MSVC specific so it didn't make much sense to define for
Android and iOS builds.
- iOS was the only platform to define `DEBUG`. We don't use it anywhere
outside thirdparty code, which we usually don't intend to debug, so it
seems better to be consistent with other platforms.
- Consistently define `NDEBUG` to disable assert behavior in both `release`
and `release_debug` targets. This used to be set for `release` for all
platforms, and `release_debug` for Android and iOS only.
- Due to the above, I removed the only use we made of `assert()` in Godot
code, which was only implemented for Unix anyway, should have been
`DEV_ENABLED`, and is in PoolAllocator which we don't actually use.
- The denoise and recast modules keep defining `NDEBUG` even for the `debug`
target as we don't want OIDN and Embree asserting all over the place.
The flag INSTANCE_DATA_FLAG_MULTIMESH is used for both multimesh and particles instances, this commit adds a new INSTANCE_DATA_FLAG_PARTICLES flag to discriminate between them.
This flag will also be used in the future to properly support TAA in particles.
Instead of updating all viewports, then blitting all viewports
to the backbuffer, then swapping all buffers, we run through
all viewports and render, blit, and swap backbuffer before
going to the next viewport.
Fixes include using proper depth buffer format in 3D (this had previously been fixed already but the changes were lost in a rebase), Remove unused lighting and shadowing code in 2D, and update 2D UBOs using glBufferSubData so that they remain the appropriate size.
Using this command:
```
find -name "thirdparty" -prune -o -name "*.h" -exec sed -i {} -e '/return /! s/\t\([A-Za-z0-9_]* \*[A-Za-z0-9_]*\)\;/\t\1 = nullptr;/g' \;
```
And then reviewing the changes manually to discard the ones that don't
seem correct/safe/good (notably changes to `core` unions).
This allows light sources to be specified in physical light units in addition to the regular energy multiplier. In order to avoid loss of precision at high values, brightness values are premultiplied by an exposure normalization value.
In support of Physical Light Units this PR also renames CameraEffects to CameraAttributes.
Per-light energy gives more control to the user on the final result of
volumetric fog. Specific lights can be fully excluded from volumetric fog
by setting their volumetric fog energy to 0, which improves performance
slightly. This can also be used to prevent short-lived dynamic effects
from poorly interacting with volumetric fog, as it's updated over several
frames by default unless temporal reprojection is disabled.
Volumetric fog shadows now obey Light3D's Shadow Opacity property as well.
The shadow fog fade property was removed as it had little visible impact
on the final scene's rendering.
At this time, it works best in the Vulkan Renderers as they support using multiple samplers with the same texture.
In GLES3 this feature really only allows you to use the screen texture without mipmaps if you want to save the cost of generating them.
This can be used to make shadows translucent for a specific light.
The light distance fade system also uses this to smoothly fade the shadow
when the light fade transition distance is greater than 0.
Adds a FramebufferCache singletion that operates the same way as UniformSetCache.
Allows creating framebuffers on the fly (and keep them cached if re-requested) such as:
```C++
RID fb = FramebufferCache::get_singleton()->get_cache(texture1,texture2);
```
`shader_uniform` is now consistenly used across both per-shader
and per-instance shader uniform methods. This makes methods easier
to find in the class reference when looking for them.
Mipmap LOD bias can be useful to improve the appearance of distant
textures without increasing anisotropic filtering (or in situations
where anisotropic filtering is not effective).
`fsr_mipmap_bias` was renamed to `texture_mipmap_bias` accordingly.
The property hint now allows for greater precision as well.
- Validate format conservatively. (This is to have VRS images created regardless whether VRS attachments are supported, which avoids errors in places where the code assumes such images were created on low-spec GPUs.)
- Create a non-layered default VRS image, which is what Vulkan (and D3D12, by the way) expect.
Implement built-in classes Vector4, Vector4i and Projection.
* Two versions of Vector4 (float and integer).
* A Projection class, which is a 4x4 matrix specialized in projection types.
These types have been requested for a long time, but given they were very corner case they were not added before.
Because in Godot 4, reimplementing parts of the rendering engine is now possible, access to these types (heavily used by the rendering code) becomes a necessity.
**Q**: Why Projection and not Matrix4?
**A**: Godot does not use Matrix2, Matrix3, Matrix4x3, etc. naming convention because, within the engine, these types always have a *purpose*. As such, Godot names them: Transform2D, Transform3D or Basis. In this case, this 4x4 matrix is _always_ used as a _Projection_, hence the naming.
* Moved preprocessor to Shader and ShaderInclude
* Clean up RenderingServer side
* Preprocessor is separate from parser now, but it emits tokens with include location hints.
* Improved ShaderEditor validation code
* Added include file code completion
* Added notification for all files affected by a broken include.
Now the `linuxbsd` platform can be built headlessly (e.g. without X11
development libraries).
I also cleaned up some weird (old?) usages of the `env` variable which
seem to make no difference and are used nowhere else.
- Check block decoration in addition to type decoration to be sure to find `readonly` decorators
- Verify uniforms have same writability across all shader stages in Vulkan RD
- Include Godot version and commit hash in shader cache key
- Reject files when format doesn't match, even if it's lower, since we don't have backwards compatibility here
`rendering/quality/shadows` is now `rendering/quality/positional_shadow`
to explicitly denote that the settings only affect positional light shadows,
not directional light shadows.
Shadow atlas settings now contain the word "atlas" for easier searching.
Soft shadow quality settings were renamed to contain the word "filter".
This makes the settings appear when searching for "filter" in the
project settings dialog, like in Godot 3.x.
This was done by refactoring directory and file access handling for the Android platform so that any general filesystem access type go through the Android layer.
This allows us to validate whether the access is unrestricted, or whether it falls under scoped storage and thus act appropriately.
In far most cases it seems like it's going to message about bogus manifests
in the Windows registry which point to JSON files which have since been
uninstalled, but without clearing the registry.
This happens with bogus Vulkan overlays from Twitch, Epic Online Services,
NVIDIA Nsight Systems, OBS Studio, Rockstar Games... fix your mess folks.
Fixes#56089.
- Initialize queue indices to values meaning 'unset'
- Remove unused parameters & members
- Make texture update access flags consistent with texture copy
- Fix style and pass type of some parameters
- Synchronize setup-draw in flush with a semaphore
- Add no current list validation to draw_list_begin_splits()
- Update texture usage flags on destination of copy
- Fix misuse of Vulkan flag
Clean up and do fixes to hash functions and newly introduced murmur3 hashes in #61934
* Clean up usage of murmur3
* Fixed usages of binary murmur3 on floats (this is invalid)
* Changed DJB2 to use xor (which seems to be better)
This has several benefits:
- Transparency sorting issues inherent to alpha blending no longer occur.
- Alpha hash materials can now cast shadows (also works with
GeometryInstance3D Transparency's property for alpha hash materials).
- Higher performance.
Initial TAA support based on the implementation in Spartan Engine.
Motion vectors are correctly generated for camera and mesh movement, but there is no support for other things like particles or skeleton deformations.
* Map is unnecessary and inefficient in almost every case.
* Replaced by the new HashMap.
* Renamed Map to RBMap and Set to RBSet for cases that still make sense
(order matters) but use is discouraged.
There were very few cases where replacing by HashMap was undesired because
keeping the key order was intended.
I tried to keep those (as RBMap) as much as possible, but might have missed
some. Review appreciated!
Adds a new, cleaned up, HashMap implementation.
* Uses Robin Hood Hashing (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table#Robin_Hood_hashing).
* Keeps elements in a double linked list for simpler, ordered, iteration.
* Allows keeping iterators for later use in removal (Unlike Map<>, it does not do much
for performance vs keeping the key, but helps replace old code).
* Uses a more modern C++ iterator API, deprecates the old one.
* Supports custom allocator (in case there is a wish to use a paged one).
This class aims to unify all the associative template usage and replace it by this one:
* Map<> (whereas key order does not matter, which is 99% of cases)
* HashMap<>
* OrderedHashMap<>
* OAHashMap<>

* Changed to use the same stages as extensions.
* Makes the initialization more coherent, helping solve problems due to lack of stages.
* Makes it easier to port between module and extension.
* removed the DRIVER initialization level (no longer needed).
Adds the is_process_running function to the native OS class and exposes it to script.
This is implemented on Windows and Unix platforms. A stub is provided for other platforms that do not support this function.
Documentation is updated to reflect new API function.
These typedefs don't save much typing compared to the full `Ref<Resource>`
and `Ref<RefCounted>`, yet they sometimes introduce confusion among
new contributors.
This method can be used to get the graphics API version currently in
use (such as Vulkan). It can be used by projects for troubleshooting
or statistical purposes.
Didn't commit all the changes where it wants to initialize a struct
with `{}`. Should be reviewed in a separate PR.
Option `IgnoreArrays` enabled for now to be conservative, can be
disabled to see if it proposes more useful changes.
Also fixed manually a handful of other missing initializations / moved
some from constructors.

Add "generate_mipmap" font import option.
Add some missing features to the Sprite3D.
Move BiDi override code from Control to TextServer.
Add functions to access TextServer font cache textures.
Add MSDF related flags and shader to the standard material.
Change standard material cache to use HashMap instead of Vector.
This commit removes a lot of enum values related to the color render pass in favor of a new flag-bases approach. This means instead of hard-coding all the possible option combinations into enums, we can write our logic by checking a bit-mask.
The changes in rendering_device_vulkan.cpp add support for unused attachments. That means RenderingDeviceVulkan::framebuffer_create() can take null RIDs in the attachments vector, which will result in VK_ATTACHMENT_UNUSED entries in the render pass.
This is used in this same PR to establish fixed locations for the color pass attachments (only color and separate specular so far, but TAA will add motion vectors as well). This way the attachment locations in the shader can stay the same regardless of which attachments are actually used.
Right now all the combinations of flags are generated, but we will need to add a way to limit the amount of combinations in the future.
3 options are available:
- Light and Sky (default)
- Light Only (new)
- Sky Only (equivalent to `use_in_sky_only = true`)

This has been superseded by GDExtension so this code is no longer useful
nor usable.
There's still some GDNative-related stuff in platform export code which
needs to be adapted for GDExtension (e.g. to include GDExtension libraries
in exports).
* Changed syntax usage for RD::Uniform to create faster with a single RID
* Converted render pass setup to use this in clustered renderer to test.
This is the first step into creating a proper uniform set cache system to simplify large parts of the codebase.
This can be used to fade lights and their shadows in the distance,
similar to Decal nodes. This can bring significant performance
improvements, especially for lights with shadows enabled and when
using higher-than-default shadow quality settings.
While lights can be smoothly faded out over distance, shadows are
currently "all or nothing" since per-light shadow color is no longer
customizable in the Vulkan renderer. This may result in noticeable
pop-in when leaving the shadow cutoff distance, but depending on the
scene, it may not always be that noticeable.
This updates VMA and instead of using the custom small pool approach from 4e6c9d3ae9, lazily creates pools for the relevant memory type indices, which doesn't require patching VMA.
Also, patches already merged upstream or not needed any longer are removed.
* Adds optional vec4 USERDATA1 .. USERDATA6 to particles, allowing to store custom data.
* This data is allocated on demand, so shaders that do not use it do not cost more.
Implemented via `BCryptGenRandom` on Windows.
Implemented via `getentropy` syscall when available.
Implemented via `/dev/urandom` device as a fallback.
The `/dev/urandom` fallback can be disabled via the `NO_URANDOM` build
flag.
Note: The HTML5 version relies on emscripten file system urandom
device which itself uses the Crypto API when available or the plain
old not crypto-safe `Math.random()` otherwise.
Restore get_entropy.
Using codespell 2.2-dev from current git.
Added `misc/scripts/codespell.sh` to make it easier to run it once in a
while and update the skip and ignore lists.
16-bit shadow atlases are already the default in the project settings,
but low-level methods used 24-bit shadows by default.
This makes low-level methods more consistent with the default project
settings to avoid accidental performance issues when users change
the shadow size at run-time.
First, we should not insert into cache if the hostname resolution has
failed (as it might be a temporary internet issue), second, the async
resolver should also properly insert into cache.
Took the chance to remove some duplicate code with critical section in
it at the cost of little performance when calling the blocking
resolve_hostname function.
This provides more flexibility between performance and quality
adjustments, especially when using SDFGI for small-scale levels
(which can be useful for procedurally generated scenes).
On the only platform where PVRTC is supported (iOS),
ETC2 generally supersedes PVRTC in every possible way. The increased
memory usage is not really a problem thanks to modern iOS' devices

Applying overlay materials into multi-surface meshes currently
requires adding a next pass material to all the surfaces, which
might be cumbersome when the material is to be applied to a range
of different geometries. This also makes it not trivial to use
AnimationPlayer to control the material in case of visual effects.
The material_override property is not an option as it works
replacing the active material for the surfaces, not adding a new pass.
This commit adds the material_overlay property to GeometryInstance3D
(and therefore MeshInstance3D), having the same reach as
material_override (that is, all surfaces) but adding a new material
pass on top of the active materials, instead of replacing them.
Each file in Godot has had multiple contributors who co-authored it over the
years, and the information of who was the original person to create that file
is not very relevant, especially when used so inconsistently.
`git blame` is a much better way to know who initially authored or later
modified a given chunk of code, and most IDEs now have good integration to
show this information.
It's supposed to be something stable that can be used to identify the engine
(using an equality check), so having the version number in there defeats
the purpose.
While at it, there is no need to prefix it with a second `"GodotEngine"`, nor
to copy the static C string into a C++ string to then extract a C string
from it :)
Always build with the GUI subsystem.
Redirect stdout and stderr output to the parent process console.
Use CreateProcessW for blocking `execute` calls with piped stdout and stderr (prevent console windows for popping up when used with the GUI subsystem build, and have more consistent behavior with `create_process`).
Add `open_console` argument to the `execute` and `create_process` to open a new console window.
Remove `interface/editor/hide_console_window` editor setting.
Remove `Toggle System Console` menu option.
Remove `set_console_visible` and `is_console_visible` functions.
This can be used to distinguish between integrated, dedicated, virtual
and software-emulated GPUs. This in turn can be used to automatically
adjust graphics settings, or warn users about features that may run
slowly on their hardware.
This error message was often displayed for no good reason when PCK

Split instance and physical device selection function and move device selection to window creation, to reject devices without present capability.
Add device preferred type check in discrete > integrated > virtual > cpu > other order.
Add device list printout.
Add command line argument to override device selection.
Note, the editor build requires the mbedtls module to be manually
enabled, as it is currently needed as a ResourceUID dependency.
This will need to be addressed in a separate PR.
