* make GLES libraries loaded via buildconf vars
* fix relative install paths for macOS
* fix indenting, add comments
* fix indentation for REAL this time (thanks editorconfig)
* WIP gles2 compat
* More gles2 compat. Playable with ANGLE now, with some rendering bugs.
* fix matrix mult. order in generic laser shader
* gles20: fix indexed rendering
* Update docs about gles20 status
* fix formatting
This also introduces `float32`, `float64`, and `real` typedefs to be
used in place of `float` and `double` later. `real` is for game code and
other places where we don't particularly care about the precision and
format of the underlying type, and is currently defined to `double`.
`float32` and `float64` should replace `float` and `double` respectively
* Major refactoring of the main loop(s) and control flow (WIP)
run_at_fps() is gone 🦀
Instead of nested blocking event loops, there is now an eventloop API
that manages an explicit stack of scenes. This makes Taisei a lot more
portable to async environments where spinning a loop forever without
yielding control simply is not an option, and that is the entire point
of this change.
A prime example of such an environment is the Web (via emscripten).
Taisei was able to run there through a terrible hack: inserting
emscripten_sleep calls into the loop, which would yield to the browser.
This has several major drawbacks: first of all, every function that
could possibly call emscripten_sleep must be compiled into a special
kind of bytecode, which then has to be interpreted at runtime, *much*
slower than JITed WebAssembly. And that includes *everything* down the
call stack, too! For more information, see
https://emscripten.org/docs/porting/emterpreter.html
Even though that method worked well enough for experimenting, despite
suboptimal performance, there is another obvious drawback:
emscripten_sleep is implemented via setTimeout(), which can be very
imprecise and is generally not reliable for fluid animation. Browsers
actually have an API specifically for that use case:
window.requestAnimationFrame(), but Taisei's original blocking control
flow style is simply not compatible with it. Emscripten exposes this API
with its emscripten_set_main_loop(), which the eventloop backend now
uses on that platform.
Unfortunately, C is still C, with no fancy closures or coroutines.
With blocking calls into menu/scene loops gone, the control flow is
reimplemented via so-called (pun intended) "call chains". That is
basically an euphemism for callback hell. With manual memory management
and zero type-safety. Not that the menu system wasn't shitty enough
already. I'll just keep telling myself that this is all temporary and
will be replaced with scripts in v1.4.
* improve build system for emscripten + various fixes
* squish menu bugs
* improve emscripten event loop; disable EMULATE_FUNCTION_POINTER_CASTS
Note that stock freetype does not work without
EMULATE_FUNCTION_POINTER_CASTS; use a patched version from the
"emscripten" branch here:
https://github.com/taisei-project/freetype2/tree/emscripten
* Enable -Wcast-function-type
Calling functions through incompatible pointers is nasal demons and
doesn't work in WASM.
* webgl: workaround a crash on some browsers
* emscripten improvements:
* Persist state (config, progress, replays, ...) in local IndexDB
* Simpler HTML shell (temporary)
* Enable more optimizations
* fix build if validate_glsl=false
* emscripten: improve asset packaging, with local cache
Note that even though there are rules to build audio bundles, audio
does *not* work yet. It looks like SDL2_mixer can not work without
threads, which is a problem. Yet another reason to write an OpenAL
backend - emscripten supports that natively.
* emscripten: customize the html shell
* emscripten: force "show log" checkbox unchecked initially
* emscripten: remove quit shortcut from main menu (since there's no quit)
* emscripten: log area fixes
* emscripten/webgl: workaround for fullscreen viewport issue
* emscripten: implement frameskip
* emscripter: improve framerate limiter
* align List to at least 8 bytes (shut up warnings)
* fix non-emscripten builds
* improve fullscreen handling, mainly for emscripten
* Workaround to make audio work in chromium
emscripten-core/emscripten#6511
* emscripten: better vsync handling; enable vsync & disable fxaa by default
* Added (and fixed) a few useful warnings
* Removed some dead code
* Cleaned up the build system files a bit
* Once again separated ZIP support from data packaging
* Converted macOS cross-compilation options into cross-file properties
When textures are loaded as resources, the best available format is now
picked by default. That means that if your source image is 16-bit RGB,
you will get a 16-bit RGB texture (the alpha channel is added only if
necessary). However, grayscale images currently get expanded into RGB(A)
by the loaders automatically, so you will never get less than 3 channels
by default. This is good, because you most often expect grayscale images
to stay gray, and not red.
This behavior can be overriden with the new 'format' key in .tex files.
For example, if you only care about one channel in a gray image, you can
do this to save some VRAM:
format = R16
The following is equivalent:
format = R16U
And so is this:
format = r 16 uint
The general syntax is:
format = <channels><depth>[datatype]
Where:
* Channels is one of: R, RG, RGB, RGBA;
* Depth is one of: 8, 16, 32;
* Datatype is one of: uint (or just u), float (or just f)
All fields are case-insensitive and may be separated by whitespace.
Note that the rendering backend may not support all of these formats,
and fallback to an inferior or a redundant one. The gl33 backend should
support all of them. The gles30 backend only supports 8-bit uint
textures for now.
* First steps towards shader transpilation
Needs to be manually enabled via -Dshader_transpiler=true.
Requires shaderc. https://github.com/google/shaderc
Not yet functional due to missing SPIRV-Cross integration. SPIRV-Cross
currently does not have an official C API, and crossc is too minimal to
be useful. The current plan is to extend crossc and vendor it, while
also sending PRs upstream.
* Integrate crossc; shader transpilation for GLES now works
* fix leak
* gles30 backend now playable on Mesa with 3.2 context
Some rendering issues are present. Identified so far:
- Marisa's lasers are invisible
- Death effect looks wrong
Also, a small pixmap manipulation library has been written, and the
texture uploading API redesigned around it.
* fix marisa lasers in GLES (uniform name clashed with builtin)
* fix player death effect in GLES (another name clash)
* Dump ANGLE's translated shader code in debug log
* fix screenshots
* Drop support for triangle fans, switch to strips
Fans offer no advantage over strips, and they've been removed in D3D10+,
so ANGLE has to emulate them.
* crude workaround for an ANGLE bug
* Re-enable GL debug labels, fix an issue with them that affected ANGLE (but was always technically a bug)
* fix race condition in shaderc initialization
* New SDL_RWops interface for vertex buffers
* Optimize VBO streaming via buffering updates
Measurable performance improvement even with the main gl33 renderer,
drastic improvement with ANGLE.
* Fix the depth texture binding problem under ANGLE
Apparently it hates GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT16 for some reason. Sized internal
formats are not supported in GLES 2.0 anyway, so not using them is
probably a good idea.
* fix GLES2.0 segfault (the backend still doesn't work, though)
* dump GL extensions at info log level, not debug
* get around a Mesa bug; more correct texture format table for GLES2
* Correct GLES3 texture format table according to the spec
Not a Mesa bug after all
* require crossc>=1.5.0, fallback to subproject
* Request at least 8bit per color channel in GL backends
* Forbid lto for static windows builds with shader_transpiler=true
* fix edge case segfault
* Add basic ANGLE bundling support to the build system
Windows only, and no NSIS support yet
* Fix various windows-related build system and installer brokenness
* Disable gles backends by default
* update documentation
* Refacor uniforms API:
- More complete and consistent
- Type-safety
- Usage correctess assertions missing for now, planned
* Redesign texturing API: texunits gone, assign textures to sampler uniforms directly
r_texture_create now allocates memory and returns an opaque Texture
pointer; similar changes to the other renderer APIs will follow.
* Framebuffers: make _create return an opaque pointer, add debug label APIs (unused for now)
* opaque pointers and debug label APIs for vertex arrays and buffers
* fix null renderer
* Refactor glsl preprocessing into an independent module
* Separate shader resource management from renderer backend
This makes it possible to add more shading languages and/or include a
transpiler, which will be useful for the GLES backend.
* refactor r_clear into a stateless API
* add r_texture_clear API; fix gl33_framebuffer_clear
* Replace deprecated glsl_objects with objects in all *.prog files
* fix missing texture_clear implementation in null renderer
* remove some dead code in null renderer
* fix GLES segfault
* GLES 3.0 actually has glVertexAttribDivisor
* Query GL for supported GLSL versions (preparing to add shader transcompilation)
