Our goal is to have a modern, clustered renderer that supports everything mainstream engines support, including PBR, global illumination and flexible shader editing. Refactor the texture API to include more modern texture compression formats. Write a more flexible, GLES 3 GLSL compatible shader language.

Flagging instances or geometries as opaque allows uninterrupted hardware intersection search and prevents invocation of the any-hit shader. Enable the use of any-hit shaders only for those geometries that need it; for example, to do alpha testing. Consider representing mesh particles as instances in TLAS.

The new NavigationServer adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. For more advanced use cases, you can use TextMesh to generate 3D meshes from font glyphs, so you can add WordArt to your scenes ;). Asynchronous shader compilation + caching (ubershader).

Apart from that, the month was mostly spent on implementing more 2D items in the renderer as well as working on getting custom shaders running. start work on shader compiler. implement more shader features. implement more shader features. load meshes. render meshes. Done January 2018. improve C++ bindings.

We asked them to write a progress report to present what they're working on and the current status. Project: Allow undocking the Script editor and the Shader editor. In this project, I'll focus to make the Script editor and the Shader editor undockable, and keep the undocked windows after editor restarts. Student: trollodel.

These allow users to dynamically place fog and control complex fog effects with shaders. Perhaps the most exciting part about FogVolumes is the introduction of the fog shader type. FogVolumes can be controlled with custom Fog shaders to add detail or to shape them however you want. write back that data to density.

Heyyy, this pretty much looks like the sky projected onto the meshes, that's better! At that point of development, the sky reflection didn't respond to the camera position, so it basically looked like the sky was painted ontop of the mesh. The cubemap filtering shader can be found here. cubemap filtering. implement BRDF.

Visual shader editor. Some shader features will not work and throw an error when used (which is to be expected when using an older OpenGL version). As this back-end is intended to run on the lowest end hardware possible, shaders need to be kept very small. Does not always catch errors during compile (or write) time.

You can even create complex dynamic effects by writing custom shaders that operate on FogVolume nodes. is introducing sky shaders which allow users to create dynamic skies that update in real time (including reflections).

I've asked all students to write a short progress report about their projects, which are all in the last stages of development for the GSoC internship. Textures, normal maps and some of the BSDF shaders are already well supported. Writing boilerplate for Google VR. I am mentored by sdfgeoff and reduz. Amazing!!).
