GL4ES - OpenGL for GLES Hardware
|
|
====
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a library provide OpenGL 2.x functionality for GLES2.0 accelerated Hardware (and of course also support OpenGL 1.5 function, sometimes better then when using GLES 1.1 backend)
|
|
There is also support for GLES 1.1 Hardware, emulating OpenGL 1.5, and some OpenGL 2.x+ extensions, but without shaders.
|
|
|
|
GL4ES is known to work on many platform: OpenPandora, ODroid, RaspberryPI (2 and 3 at least), PocketCHIP, "otherfruit"PI (like the OrangePI), Android, x86 and x86_64 Linux (tested using mesa-egl). There is also some WIP support for AmigaOS4, using experimental GLES2 driver for Warp3D.
|
|
|
|
This library is based on glshim (https://github.com/lunixbochs/glshim) but as now evolved far from it, with different feature set and objectives. Go check this lib if you need things like RemoteGL or TinyGLES (for 100% software rendering).
|
|
|
|
The focus is on compatibility and speed with a wide selection of game and software.
|
|
|
|
It has been tested successfully of a large selection of games and software, including: Minecraft, OpenMW, SeriousSam (both First and Second Encounters), RVGL (ReVolt GL), TSMC (The Secret Maryo Chronicles), TORCS, SpeedDreams, GL-117, Foobillard(plus), Blender 2.68 to name just a few. I have also some success with Linux port of XNA games, using either MonoGame or FNA.
|
|
|
|
Most function of OpenGL up to 1.5 are supported, with some notable exceptions:
|
|
* Reading of Depth or Stencil buffer will not work
|
|
* GL_FEEDBACK mode is not implemented
|
|
* No Accum emulation
|
|
|
|
Some known general limitations:
|
|
* GL_SELECT as some limitation in its implementation (for exemple, current Depth buffer or binded texture are not taken into account, also custom vertex shader will not work here)
|
|
* NPOT texture are supported, but not with GL_REPEAT / GL_MIRRORED, only GL_CLAMP will work properly (unless the GLES Hardware support NPOT)
|
|
* Multiple Color attachment on Framebuffer are not supported
|
|
* OcclusionQuery is implemented, but with a 0 bits precision
|
|
* Probably many other things
|
|
|
|
Status of the GLES2 backend
|
|
* The FPE (Fixed Pipeline Emulator) has most OpenGL 1.5 drawing call implemented
|
|
* The Shader Conversion is really crude, so only simple shaders will work (especialy, the implicit conversion float <-> int is not handled)
|
|
* Lighting support double-side and color separation
|
|
* FogCoord are supported, along with secondary color
|
|
* An ES2 context should be usable (usefull for SDL2)
|
|
* OpenGL 2.x games that have been tested include: OpenRA, GZDoom, Danger from the Deep, SuperTuxKart 0.8.1, Hammerwatch, OpenMW, many FNA & MonoGames games (FEZ, Towerfall Ascension, Stardew Valley, Dust, Owlboy, and many other)...
|
|
* glxgears works, but FlatShade is not implemented (and will probably never be), so it's slightly different then using GLES1.1 or actuel GL hardware
|
|
* GL_TEXTURE_1D, GL_TEXTURE_3D and GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB are not yet supported in shaders (they are supported in fixed pipeline functions), and texture 3D are just a single 2D layer for now.
|
|
* Program that link only a GL_FRAGMENT or GL_VERTEX shader are not supported yet.
|
|
|
|
Status of the GLES1.1 backend
|
|
* Framebuffer use FRAMEBUFFER_OES extension (that must be present in the GLES 1.1 stack)
|
|
* Lighting doesn't support double-side or color separation
|
|
* FogCoord or Secondary colors are not supported
|
|
* GL_TEXTURE_3D are just a single 2D layer (the 1st layer).

Compiling

GLU
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
Standard GLU do works without any issues. You can find a version [here](https://github.com/ptitSeb/GLU) if you need one.

|
Installation
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
Put lib/libGL.so.1 in your `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`.
|
|
Beware that GL4ES is meant to replace any libGL you can have on your system (like Mesa for example)
|
|

|
|
Usage
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
There are many environnement variable to control gl4es behavour, also usable at runtime using `glHint(...)`.
|
|
|
|
See [here](USAGE.md) for all variables and what they do.
