This improves the projection API in that near clip is a parameter rather
than being taken directly from the cvar, and a far clip (ie, finite far
plane) version is available (necessary for cascaded shadow maps as it's
rather hard to fit a box to an infinite frustum).
Also, the orthographic projection matrix is now reversed as per the
perspective matrix (and the code tidied up a little), and a version that
takes min and max vectors is available.
gcc didn't like a couple of the changes (rightly so: one was actually
incorrect), and the fix for qfcc I didn't think to suggest while working
with Emily.
The general CFLAGS etc fixes mostly required just getting the order of
operations right: check for attributes after setting the warnings flags,
though those needed some care for gcc as it began warning about main
wanting the const attribute.
Fixing the imui link errors required moving the ui functions and setup
to vulkan_lighting.c, which is really the only place they're used.
Fixing a load of issues related to autoconf and some small source-level issues to re-add clang support.
autoconf feature detection probably needs some addressing - partially as -Werror is applied late.
Lines are drawn for a light's leaf, the leafs visible to it, or those in
its efrags chain. Still no idea why lights are drawing when they
shouldn't. Deek suggest holes in the map, but I think if that was the
case, there'd be something visible. My suspicion is I'm doing something
wrong in with efrags.
This has resulted in some rather interesting information: it seems the
surfaces (and thus, presumably bounding boxes) for leafs have little to
do with the actual leaf node's volume.
This allows components to display themselves in the UI. Because the
component meta-data is copied into the registry, the function pointer
can be updated by systems (eg, the renderers) to display system-specific
interpretations of the component.
I really don't know what I was thinking when I wrote that code. Maybe I
was trying for a half angle. Now the rendered "cone" matches up with a
hard-clipped cone light (soft edges stick out a bit).
I spent way too long tracking down the easy teleporter disappearing only
to realize it might be the watervised map. After moving it out of the
way and using id's maps, it works just fine.
This takes care of rockets and lava balls casting shadows when they
shouldn't (rockets more because the shadow doesn't look that nice, lava
balls because they glow and thus shouldn't cast shadows). Same for
flames, though the small torches lost their cool sconce shadows (need to
split up the model into flame and sconce parts and mark each
separately).
The old R_DecayLights used r_data->realtime, which came from cl.time,
not realtime like I thought, thus causing dynamic lights to not decay
properly during a timedemo as realtime in the client is just that:
realtime.
This clears up the shadow acne, but does cause problems with lights
inside models. However, this can be fixed by setting the models to not
cast shadows.
The use of a static set makes Mod_LeafPVS not thread safe and also means
that the set is not usable with the set iterators after going to a
smaller map from a larger map.
Dynamic lights can't go directly on visible entities as one or the other
will fail to be queued. In addition, the number of lights on an entity
needs to be limited. For now, one general purpose light for various
effects (eg, quad damage etc) and one for the muzzle flash.
This also fixes the segfault in the previous commit.
Dynamic light shadow sizes are fixed, but can be controlled via the
dynlight_size cvar (defaults to 250).
While the insertion of dlights into the BSP might wind up being overly
expensive, the automatic management of the component pool cleans up the
various loops in the renderers.
Unfortunately, (current bug) lights on entities cause the entity to
disappear due to how the entity queue system works, and the doubled
efrag chain causes crashes when changing maps, meaning lights should be
on their own entities, not additional components on entities with
visible models.
Also, the vulkan renderer segfaults on dlights (fix incoming, along with
shadows for dlights).
The reversed depth buffer is very nice, but it also reversed the OIT
blending. Too much demo watching not enough walking around in the maps
(especially start near the episode 4 gate).
Other than the rather bad shadow acne, this is actually quake itself
working nicely. Still need to get directional lights working for
community maps, and all sorts of other little things (hide view model,
show player, fix brush backfaces, etc).
This takes care of the type punning issue by each pass using the correct
sampler type with the correct view types bound. Also, point light and
spot light shadow maps are now guaranteed to be separated (it was just
luck that they were before) and spot light maps may be significantly
smaller as their cone angle is taken into account. Lighting is quite
borked, but at least the engine is running again.
I guess it's kind of UB, but it's handy for images that will be
conditionally written by the GPU but need to be in shader-read-only for
draw calls and the validation layers can't tell that the layers won't be
used.
This gets everything but the actual shadow map bindings working: the
validation layers don't like my type punning (which may well be the
right thing) and specialization constants don't help (yet, anyway) but I
want to get things into git.
Directional lights don't get correct matrices yet as I need to study the
math involved for cascaded shadow maps (and id maps don't have
directional lights).
Getting spotlights working correctly was insanely frustrating: I just
couldn't get the entities into the view of the spotlight with any
sensible combination of inverses and the z_up matrix. It turned out it
was all due to an incorrect reference vector: it was +Z instead of +X.
