This was suggested by Ivan quite a while ago, and we need it to better
handle conflicting texture format corrections and similar stateblock
value changes which until now required a recompilation of the entire
shader
A number of considerations contribute to this:
1) The shader backend knows best which shader(s) it needs. GLSL needs
both, arb only one
2) The shader backend may pass some parameters to the compilation
code(e.g. which pixel format fixup to use)
3) The structures used in (2) are different in vs and ps, so a
baseshader::Compile won't work
4) The structures in (2) are wined3d-private structures, so
having a public method in the vtable won't work(its a bad idea
anyway).
GL_ATI_envmap_bumpmap provides two things: Signed V8U8 pixel formats,
and bump mapping. The extension is only supported on fglrx, and this
driver also supports GL_ARB_fragment_program. Thus the bump mapping
code is never used on any driver out there. Furthermore, if it is
used, it tends to crash the driver
The signed pixel format is used, as it can be used by pixel shaders or
the ARBfp replacement. However, the format is broken in fglrx, and
negative values are clamped to 0.0. This results in test
failures. WineD3D has an alternative codepath using scale+bias to
enable V8U8 using a standard signed RGB which works correctly on
fglrx.
GL_ARB_fragment_program and GL_ATI_fragment_shader can disable
projected textures properly, and they can also handle
D3DTTFF_PROJECTED | D3DTTFF_COUNT3 properly.
If a format is not supported natively by opengl, a shader may be able
to convert it. Up to now, CheckDeviceFormat had magic knowldge which
GL extensions lead to which supported format. This patch adds
functions that allow CheckDeviceFormat to ask the actual
implementation for its capabilities.
This is an ATI specific format designed for compressed normal maps,
and quite a few games check for its existence. While it is an
ATI-specific "extension" in d3d9, it is a core part of
D3D10(DXGI_FORMAT_BC5), and supported on Geforce 8 cards.
It isn't related to the shader backend any longer. The nvts_enable in
the ffp code isn't quite right as well, it should be moved away once
there is a dedicated nvts fragment pipeline replacement
Calling shader_select() from inside depth_blt() isn't necessarily
safe. shader_select() assumes CompileShader() has been called for the
current shaders, but that depends on STATE_VSHADER / STATE_PIXELSHADER
being applied. That isn't always true when depth_blt() gets called,
with the result that sometimes GLSL programs could be created with no
shader objects attached.
SM3.0 requires 10 4 component float varyings for passing stuff between
vertex and pixel shaders. GF7 and earlier report 8 generic varyings +
gl_Color and gl_SecondaryColor in GLSL. This patch allows us to use
gl_Color and gl_SecondaryColor to get 2 extra varyings, which some
games, like C&C3 with highest gfx settings, require.
The previous logic assumed that if NVTS or ATIFS are available they
will be used. This happens to be true for NVTS, but ATIFS is only used
if neither ARBFP nor GLSL are supported. This breaks fixed function
fragment processing on ATI r300 and newer cards
Since the shader backend implementations might track opengl resources in
their private data inform them about reset calls. For example, the atifs
backend keeps track of the replacement shaders, which are lost during an
opengl context recreation.
The whole control structures in directx.c get terribly confusing with
the various codepaths for texturing and different shader
implementations. It is also hard to reflect the shader model
decisions this way too. This patch moves the shader specific parts of
the caps code into the shader backend where we can set our caps
dependent of the shader model decisions and without complex caps flag
checks.
