- profiling shows that running the code for applying the colorization and the gradients is extremely expensive, apparently this always causes a cache miss, so now the entire thing is enabled by a sidedef flag.
It makes little sense exposing every minute detail of this through UDMF.
Setting it up that way is far too complicated. Using virtual textures that map to a real texture plus a colorization record should be far easier to use by mappers.
This also doesn't piggyback on the Doom64 color feature anymore and is completely separate, despite some redundancies.
This is still missing the texture definition part, though.
Aside from adding an additive component it can now also do:
- desaturation (not limited to the range of 0..1 so it can also be used for oversaturation by applying a negative number or negative saturation by going above 1.0.
- invert the texture
- apply a blend, including 3 special mode taken from EDuke32.
Currently only the implementation is done, it is not exposed to UDMF yet.
This builtin function no longer exists outside of backwards compatible GLSL compilers so it needs to be remapped to 'texture' so that user shaders still using it can compile.
This shouldn't be in the hardware independent interface because the semantics on OpenGL and Vulkan are too different, so a common implementation is not possible.
Most bind calls were in the GL interface anyway, so these no longer pass through hardware independent code.
This also moves the bind calls in the shadowmap code into the GL interface - these never did anything useful in Vulkan and aren't needed there.
Last but not least, this moves the legacy buffer binding handling into FGLRenderState and performs the initial binding for the light buffer in a more suitable place so that this doesn't have to pollute the render state.
Vulkan hardware buffer for software canvas may have some padding
Software renderers should be aware of buffer's pitch in order to copy pixels properly

src/rendering/hwrenderer/postprocessing/hw_postprocess.cpp:1007:13: warning: delete called on non-final 'PPTexture' that has virtual functions but non-virtual destructor [-Wdelete-non-virtual-dtor]
It will now check all layers of a material.
Additionally it will also delete all descriptor sets of Vulkan hardware textures before precaching to make sure that nothing here can accidentally still reference a deleted texture.
- clamp scissors fully to avoid NVidia's awful drivers locking up the entire system if they end up out of bounds
- perform buffer clears as part of the render pass. this puts some restrictions on how FRenderState.Clear can be used
- add an offset uniform to the present shaders so the vulkan target can flip the image during presentation
Unlike uObjectColor2, this is more global state. uObjectColor2 is part of gradient calculation which may later be offloaded to a secondary buffer which already resulted in only conditionally setting it, resulting in broken special colormap application for the software renderer.
With localization for non-Latin languages on the support list the multibyte API doesn't cut it anymore. It neither can handle system text output outside the local code page nor can an ANSI window receive text input outside its own code page.
Similar problems exist for file names. With the multibyte API it is impossible to handle any file containing characters outside the active local code page.
So as of now, everything that may pass along some Unicode text will use the Unicode API with some text conversion functions. The only places where calls to the multibyte API were left are those where known string literals are passed or where the information is not used for anything but comparing it to other return values from the same API.
currentUILevel is now primaryLevel.
For ZScript, currentVMLevel was added. This is also exported as 'level' and will change as needed.
This also means that no breaking deprecations will be needed in the future, because in order to sandbox a level only 4 variables need to be handled: level, players, playeringame and consoleplayer.
The remaining global variables are not relevant for the level state.
The static 'level' has been mostly removed from the code except some places that still need work.
