When editor continuous redraws is switched off, the editor only redraws when a redraw_request was issued by an element in the scene. This works well in most situations, but when scenes have dynamic content they will continuously issue redraw_requests.
This can be fine on high power desktops but can be an annoyance on lower power machines.
This PR splits redraw requests into high and low priority requests, defaulting to high priority. Requests due to e.g. shaders using TIME are assigned low priority.
An extra editor setting is used to record the user preference and an extra option is added to the editor spinner menu, to allow the user to select between 3 modes:
* Continuous
* Update all changes
* Update vital changes
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 GeometryInstance
(and therefore MeshInstance), 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.
Implemented in rasterizer of both GLES2 and GLES3.
Async. compilation via ubershader is currently available in the scene and particles shaders only.
Bonus:
- Use `#if defined()` syntax for not true conditionals, so they don't unnecessarily take a bit in the version flagset.
- Remove unused `ENABLE_CLIP_ALPHA` from scene shader.
- Remove unused `PARTICLES_COPY` from the particles shader.
- Remove unused uniform related code.
- Shader language/compiler: use ordered hash maps for deterministic code generation (needed for caching).
This provides more realistic lighting with a very small performance cost.
The option is available in both GLES3 and GLES2, and can be enabled in
the Project Settings. This goes well with the ACES Fitted tonemapping mode
that was recently added.
When enabled, this also makes upgrading Godot 3.x projects to Godot 4.0 easier,
since lighting in 3.x will better match how it'll look in Godot 4.0.
Update mesh_surface_get_format_stride and
mesh_surface_make_offsets_from_format to return an array of offsets and
an array of strides in order to support vertex stream splitting
Update _get_array_from_surface to also support vertex stream splitting
Add a condition on split stream usage to ensure it does not get used on
dynamic meshes
Handle case when Tangent is compressed but Normal is not compressed
Make stream splitting option require a restart in the settings
Update SoftBody and Sprite3D to support and use strides and offsets
returned by updated visual_server functions
Update Sprite3D to use the dynamic mesh flag
Add framework for supporting geometrical occluders within rooms, and add support for sphere occluders.
Includes gizmos for editing.
They also work outside the portal system.
This was reported by UBSAN.
Many methods were discussed, in the end this has the least evils and will use a 0,0,1 default on decompress.

This backports the high quality glow mode from the `master` branch.
Previously, during downsample, every second row was ignored.
Now, when high-quality is used, we sample two rows at once to ensure
that no pixel is missed. It is slower, but looks much better and has
a much high stability while moving.
High quality also takes an additional horizontal sample the width of the
horizontal blur matches the height of the vertical blur.
Fixed a bug in the complex PVS generation which was causing recursive loop.
Move some of the settings out of RoomManager into Project Settings.
Allow PVS generation method to be selected from Project Settings, and control PVS logging.
With the octahedral compression, we had attributes of a size of 2 bytes
which potentially caused performance regressions on iOS/Mac
Now add padding to the normal/tangent buffer
For octahedral, normal will always be oct32 encoded
UNLESS tangent exists and is also compressed
then both will be oct16 encoded and packed into a vec4<GL_BYTE>
attribute
Initial octahedral compression incorrectly wrote tangent to the buffer
using an offset of 3 rather than 4, losing the sign of the tangent
vector needed for things like tangent space for texturing mapping
GLES3 renderer used remove_custom_define rather than set_conditional to
change back to the default conditional state the scene shader should be
in
Implement Octahedral Compression for normal/tangent vectors
*Oct32 for uncompressed vectors
*Oct16 for compressed vectors
Reduces vertex size for each attribute by
*Uncompressed: 12 bytes, vec4<float32> -> vec2<unorm16>
*Compressed: 2 bytes, vec4<unorm8> -> vec2<unorm8>
Binormal sign is encoded in the y coordinate of the encoded tangent
Added conversion functions to go from octahedral mapping to cartesian
for normal and tangent vectors
sprite_3d and soft_body meshes write to their vertex buffer memory
directly and need to convert their normals and tangents to the new oct
format before writing
Created a new mesh flag to specify whether a mesh is using octahedral
compression or not
Updated documentation to discuss new flag/defaults
Created shader flags to specify whether octahedral or cartesian vectors
are being used
Updated importers to use octahedral representation as the default format
for importing meshes
Updated ShaderGLES2 to support 64 bit version codes as we hit the limit
of the 32-bit integer that was previously used as a bitset to store
enabled/disabled flags
Implemented splitting of vertex positions and attributes in the vertex
buffer
Positions are sequential at the start of the buffer, followed by the
additional attributes which are interleaved
Made a project setting which enables/disabled the buffer formatting
throughout the project
Implemented in both GLES2 and GLES3
This improves performance particularly on tile-based GPUs as well as
cache performance for something like shadow mapping which only needs
position data
Updated Docs and Project Setting
This is an older, easier to implement variant of CAS as a pure
fragment shader. It doesn't support upscaling, but we won't make
use of it (at least for now).
The sharpening intensity can be adjusted on a per-Viewport basis.
For the root viewport, it can be adjusted in the Project Settings.
Since `textureLodOffset()` isn't available in GLES2, there is no
way to support contrast-adaptive sharpening in GLES2.
We've been using standard C library functions `memcpy`/`memset` for these since
2016 with 67f65f6639.
There was still the possibility for third-party platform ports to override the
definitions with a custom header, but this doesn't seem useful anymore.
Backport of #48239.
Allows users to override default API usage, in order to get best performance on different platforms.
Also changes the default legacy flags to use STREAM rather than DYNAMIC.
- Fix objects with no material being considered as fully transparent by the lightmapper.
- Added "environment_min_light" property: gives artistic control over the shadow color.
- Fixed "Custom Color" environment mode, it was ignored before.
- Added "interior" property to BakedLightmapData: controls whether dynamic capture objects receive environment light or not.
- Automatically update dynamic capture objects when the capture data changes (also works for "energy" which used to require object movement to trigger the update).
- Added "use_in_baked_light" property to GridMap: controls whether the GridMap will be included in BakedLightmap bakes.
- Set "flush zero" and "denormal zero" mode for SSE2 instructions in the Embree raycaster. According to Embree docs it should give a performance improvement.
Changes default ninepatch mode to preserve compatibility, and renames default mode to 'fixed'.
Also adds an editor restart to changing ninepatch mode and software skinning, which will be more user friendly.
The rendering/quality/2d section of project settings is becoming considerably expanded in 3.2.4, and arguably was not the correct place for settings that were not really to do with quality.
3.2.4 is the last sensible opportunity we will have to move these settings, as the only existing one likely to break compatibility in a small way is `pixel_snap`, and given that the whole snapping area is being overhauled we can draw attention to the fact it has changed in the release notes.
Class reference is also updated and slightly improved.
`pixel_snap` is renamed to `gpu_pixel_snap` in the project settings and code to help differentiate from CPU side transform snapping.
Move definition of rendering/quality/filters/anisotropic_filter_level to
servers/visual_server.cpp, since both GLES2 and GLES3 now use it
rasterizer_storage_gles3.cpp: Remove a spurious variable write (the
value gets overwritten soon after)
