This splits up render pass creation so that the creation of the various
resources can be tailored to the needs of the actual render pass
sub-system. In addition, it gets window resizing mostly working (just
some problems with incorrect rendering).
It turns out the semaphore used for vkAcquireNextImageKHR may be left in
a signaled state for VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_DATE_KHR. While it seems to be
possible to clear the semaphore using an empty queue submission,
destroying and recreating the semaphore works well.
Still have problems with the frame buffer after window resize, though.
Swap chain acquisition is part of final output handling. However, as the
correct frame buffers are required for the render passes, the
acquisition needs to be performed during the preoutput render pass.
Window resize is still broken, but this is a big step towards fixing it.
This is the minimum maximum count for sampled images, and with layered
shadow maps (with a minimum of 2048 layers supported), that's really way
more than enough.
I guess nvidia gives a non-srgb format as the first in the list, but my
laptop gives an srgb format first, thus the unexpected difference in
rendering brightness. Hard-coding BGRA isn't any better, but it will do
for now.
Things are a bit of a mess with interdependence between sub-module
initialization and render pass initialization, and window resizing is
broken, but the main render pass rendering to an image that is then
post-processed (currently just blitted) is working. This will make it
possible to implement fisheye and water warp (and other effects, of
course).
When working, this will handle the output to the swap-chain images and
any final post-processing effects (gamma correction, screen scaling,
etc). However, currently the screen is just black because the image
for getting the main render pass output isn't hooked up yet.
Now each (high level) render pass can have its own frame buffer. The
current goal is to get the final output render pass to just transfer the
composed output to the swap chain image, potentially with scaling (my
laptop might be able to cope).
While the HUD and status bar don't cut out a lot of screen (normally),
they might start to make a difference when I get transparency working
properly. The main thing is this is a step towards pulling the 2d
rendering into another render pass so the main deferred pass is
world-only.
Using swizzles in an image view allows the same shader to be used with
different image "types" (eg, color vs coverage).
Of course, this needed to abandon QFV_CreateImageView, but that is
likely for the best.
It turns out that nearest filtering doesn't need any offsets to avoid
texel leaks so long as the screen isn't also offset. With this, the 2d
rendering looks good at any scale (minus the inherent blockiness).
There's no API yet as I need to look into the handling of qpic_t before
I can get any of this into the other renderers (or even vulkan, for that
matter).
However, the current design for slice rendering is based on glyphs (ie,
using instances and vertex pulling), with 3 strips of 3 quads, 16 verts,
and 26 indices (2 reset). Hacky testing seems to work, but real tests
need the API.
It's currently used only by the vulkan renderer, as it's the only
renderer that can make good use of it for alias models, but now vulkan
show shirt/pants colors (finally).
This cuts down on the memory requirements for skins by 25%, and
simplifies the shader a bit more, too. While at it, I made alias skins
nominally compatible with bsp textures: layer 0 is color, 1 is emissive,
and 2 is the color map (emissive was on 3).
As the RGB curves for many of the color rows are not linearly related,
my idea of scaling the brightest color in the row just didn't work.
Using a masked palette lookup works much better as it allows any curves.
Also, because the palette is uploaded as a grid and the coordinates are
calculated on the CPU, the system is extendable beyond 8-bit palettes.
This isn't quite complete as the top and bottom colors are still in
separate layers but their indices and masks can fit in just one, but
this requires reworking the texture setup (for another commit).
For whatever reason, I had added an extra 4 bytes to the fragment
shader's push-constants. It took me a while to figure out why renderdoc
wouldn't stop complaining about me not writing enough data.
It turns out my approach to alias skin coloring just doesn't work for
the quake data due to the color curves not having a linear relationship,
especially the bottom colors.
It works on only one layer and one mip, and assumes the provided texture
data is compatible with the image, but does support sub-image updates
(x, y location as parameters, width and height in the texture data).
The bright end of the color map is actually twice the palette value, but
I didn't understand this when I came up with the shirt/pants color
scheme for vulkan. However, the skin texture can store only 0..1, so the
mapping to 0..2 needs to be done in the shader. It looks like it works
at least better: the gold key at the end of demo1 doesn't look as bleh,
though I do get some weird colors still on ogres etc.
Currently only for gl/glsl/vulkan. However, rather than futzing with
con_width and con_height (and trying to guess good values), con_scale
(currently an integer) gives consistent pixel scaling regardless of
window size.
The resource functions assume the requested layers is correct (really,
the lighting code assumes that the resource functions assume such), but
QFV_CreateImage multiplies the layer count by 6 for cube maps (really,
the issue is in QFV_CreateImage, but I want to move away from it
anyway).
The check for the entity being the view model was checking only the
view model id, which is not sufficient when the view model is invalid by
never being set to other than 0s. A better system for dealing with the
view model is needed.
Another step towards moving all resource creation into the one place.
The motivation for doing the change was getting my test scene to work
with only ambient lights or no lights at all.
While the libraries are probably getting a little out of hand, the
separation into its own directory is probably a good thing as an ECS
should not be tied to scenes. This should make the ECS more generally
useful.
Since entity_t has a pointer to the registry owning the entity, there's
no need to access a global to get at the registry. Also move component
getting closer to where it's used.
It was being set to -1 unconditionally due to forgetting to use id.
However, I decided I didn't like reusing the id var and did some
renaming while I was at it.
