This release brings a new deferred rendering pipeline with support for unlimited number of shadow-casting lights. All light types, including point lights, can now cast shadows. Please note that the deferred renderer has specific hardware requirements and therefore it is not supported on all platforms! When deferred rendering is not available, you can still use the old default renderer, but that is still limited to maximum 8 punctual lights and only a single shadow-casting light. Additionally, you can now configure frame skip for capturing shadowmaps or mark a light as "static" to capture its shadowmap only once to increase performance.
BBMOD_DeferredRenderer, which is a deferred renderer with support for unlimited number of shadow-casting lights.bbmod_deferred_renderer_is_supported, which checks whether deferred renderer is supported on the current platform.BBMOD_SHADER_GBUFFER, which is a shader for rendering models into the G-buffer.BBMOD_MATERIAL_DEFERRED, which is an opaque material that can be used with the new BBMOD_DeferredRenderer.BBMOD_SHADER_TERRAIN_GBUFFER, which is a shader for rendering terrain into the G-buffer. Supports 3 terrain layers at most!BBMOD_MATERIAL_TERRAIN_DEFERRED, which is a terrain material that can be used with the new BBMOD_DeferredRenderer.EnableSSAO, SSAOScale, SSAORadius, SSAOPower, SSAOAngleBias, SSAODepthRange, SSAOSelfOcclusionBias and SSAOBlurDepthRange from BBMOD_DefaultRenderer to BBMOD_BaseRenderer.BBMOD_PointLight can now also cast shadows.Frameskip to BBMOD_Light, which is the number of frames to skip between individual updates of the light's shadowmap.Static to BBMOD_Light, which when set to true, the light's shadowmap is captured only once.NeedsUpdate to BBMOD_Light, which if true, then the light's shadowmap needs to be updated.Background to enum BBMOD_ERenderPass, which is a render pass for background objects (e.g. skydome).BBMOD_MATERIAL_SKY now uses the Background render pass instead of Forward.Background render pass into BBMOD_DefaultRenderer.BBMOD_U_SHADOWMAP_NORMAL_OFFSET_VS, which is the name of a vertex shader uniform of type float that holds how much are vertices offset by their normal before they are transformed into shadowmap-space, using formula vertex + normal * normalOffset.BBMOD_U_SHADOWMAP_NORMAL_OFFSET_PS, which is the name of a fragment shader uniform of type float that holds how much are vertices offset by their normal before they are transformed into shadowmap-space, using formula vertex + normal * normalOffset.BBMOD_U_SHADOWMAP_NORMAL_OFFSET is now obsolete!
