Convert the Integer part (i.e. effect names and the two associations) of vertex and fragment shaders to Uniform Buffer Objects.Next: convert the last part, i.e. the float effect parameters.
Remove the 'binding' parameter from the UBO in the vertex shader - this is not part of OpenGL ES 3.0, only introduced in 3.1, and we want to be compatible with 3.0.Now we need to dynamically detect the UBO index and form a BlockBinding ourselves.
Introducing UBO to Effect Queues: step 1.
Introduce an UBO to the vertex shader holding info about mesh effect associations.
Fix normals in case of MatrixEffectScale / Shear.Fix displaying the normal vector.
Fixes for pausing and restarting.
More progreess porting RubikCube.
Big change to MeshBase:1) split the list of Components into two: 'texture map' components and 'effect' components. Reason: imagine the Rubik Cube with a Solver. When setting up a initial position in the Solver, we need to be able to set texture maps of each individual face of each cubit....
Progress making it possible to apply Vertex Effects only to some Components of a Mesh.
First attempt at the MeshBase.apply(VertexEffect) API.
Change the Postprocessing effects: separate the radius and the halo.Reason: we needed a way to specify the size of the halo around a postprocessed object; before it was automatically (and not very correctly) computed from the radius - before we knew the size of the object's bounding box, so this automatic computation was possible. Now we're removing the MashBase.getBounding(0 API, so the size of the halo has to be explicitly given by the user. This way is more correct anyway and gives the user more control (as the Multiblur app proves!)...
A lot of changes.
1) main vertex shader: remove support for degree_object. This functionality will hopefully come back when we introduce other than circular regions.2) MeshBase: remove the need to set a Bounding box (this is the point of the whole thing - we wanted to get rid of this so that the advances in MeshJoined will be easier)...
Lower requirements - now only OpenGL ES 3.0 is required; if running on such platform, OIT part of the API ( which is the only one which actually requires 3.1) is switched off.
Further corrections.
Correct the Rubik app for the recent changes to the library's Node.
Hide the InternalSurface class inside its package.
Convert RubikCube to the new V&F center schema!
Move the Effects.setStretch to Meshbase.setStretch
Move the 'pre-multiply mesh before applying any effects' thing from [(Xsize of texture, Ysize of texture) x Mesh's zFactor] to Effects.setStretch(sx,sy,sz)
remove an unused, redundant API.
Simplify the way applications can get notifications when an effect finishes.
Now, instead of the 'DistortedEffects.(de)registerForNotifications()' 2 APIs, we call a single 'Effect.notifyWhenFinished()'.
Correct the Legal notice.
Rename all the classes that are not exported to application to 'Internal'
Finally move the EffectQueues to their own package.
