d868f60f6c - since the clip planes for plane mirrors did not work anymore I reimplemented them using shader based logic. It still needs to be seen if this affects performance on older hardware. 2014-07-13 12:14:12 +02:00

9a6bc64381 - use vertex array objects to manage vertex buffers. 2014-07-01 00:51:02 +02:00

f710518903 - use a uniform array to store vertex data to render dynamic stuff on GL 3.x hardware without the ARB_buffer_storage extension.
Due to the way the engine works it needs to render a lot of small primitives with frequent state changes.
But due to the performance of buffer uploads it is impossible to upload each primitive's vertices to a buffer separately because buffer uploads nearly always stall the GPU.
On the other hand, in order to reduce the amount of buffer uploads all the necessary state changes would have to be saved in an array until they can finally be used. This method also imposed an unacceptable overhead.
Fortunately, uploading uniform arrays is very fast and doesn't cause GPU stalls, so now the engine puts the vertex data per primitive into a uniform array and uses a static vertex buffer to index the array in the vertex shader.
This method offers the same performance as immediate mode but only uses core profile features.

1efc2938b7 - implement model vertex buffer and draw MD2 models using it instead of using the GLCommands from the model. 2014-06-29 23:24:16 +02:00

2925c96b59 removed all GL 2.x code.
After thinking about it for a day or so I believe it's the best option to remove all compatibility code because it's a major obstacle for a transition to a core profile.

965a2a2d79 definition for model vertex buffer. 2014-06-15 21:56:37 +02:00

1aaa1b7bad - removed gl_usevbo CVAR because with recent code changes it has become useless. If GL_ARB_buffer_storage is present, buffers will always be used. 2014-06-15 12:12:24 +02:00

2abf1644a4 - fixed: Plane height changes only updated the first buffered vertex for the respective plane. 2014-06-15 10:18:46 +02:00

3644073bbd - use a software buffer for immediate mode rendering. This allows using the regular buffer code to collect data for both render modes and allows removal of a lot of duplicated code. 2014-06-15 01:14:41 +02:00

5b302ed3a6 - added benchmarking calls for glDrawArrays to see how well issunig draw calls performs on different hardware. 2014-06-14 15:16:33 +02:00

5e22c82e79 - use buffer for rendering the sky on all GL versions since the differences for making GL2.0 work are rather small. 2014-06-14 10:38:30 +02:00

8d9a90cd22 - rewrote sky dome rendering to use a static vertex buffer if not on OpenGL 2.x. 2014-06-14 01:24:28 +02:00

09f4071436 Ok, it had to be done: Removed shader support for pre GLSL 1.3/GL 3.0 hardware. The compromises needed to accomodate these are just too bad and would block any attempt at streamlining the code. 2014-05-11 13:27:51 +02:00

f7404d20fb - add vertex buffer based drawing for all walls and flats. 2014-05-11 01:23:27 +02:00

7d3beb665b - rewrote vertex buffer code to require GL_ARB_BUFFER_STORAGE extension.
This means it won't work anymore on anything that doesn't support OpenGL 4.0, but I don't think this is a problem. On older NVidia cards performance gains could not be seen and on older AMDs using the vertex buffer was even worse as long as it got mixed with immediate mode rendering.

1d4ea9f162 - removed the __asm nop breakpoints for debugging. They not only do not work on non-MSVC but also not on 64 bit. 2014-05-08 09:48:39 +02:00

94b06900cb - got rid of a lot of stuff that's no longer required with GLEW.
- replaced GLUs texture scaling with our own function. This is only used to scale down textures larger than what the hardware can handle so we do not need a dependency to an essentially deprecated library for it.

69af73d9b9 - alternative configuration using GLEW to get extension functions. This requires GL 2.0, though so it won't be promoted to the mainline for the time being.
- removed all pre GL 2.0 support.

058f065446 - fixed: FFlatVertex contained two unused members.
- fixed: Clearing the args in the VavoomLightColor constructor only cleared 5 bytes, still assuming byte args.
