• Core changes
  • OgreFont: default to ASCII instead of Latin1
  • OgreMain: deprecate getErrorDescription
  • OgrePixelFormat: deprecate PF_A4L4
  • SceneManager: except if trying use FFP technique on RS without support
  • GpuProgramManager: add strict mode
  • OgreSharedPtr: replace staticCast usages by static_pointer_cast
  • RenderSystemCapabilities: introduce CAPS_CATEGORY_COMMON_3
  • ResourceGroupListener: do not require implementing any methods
• Bugfixes
  • CompositorInstance: fix crash when MRT constructor failed
  • Correction of EXP and LOG operations on Quaternions.
  • SceneManager: clean up own shadow materials on destruction
  • SimpleRenderable: respect mRenderQueuePriority
  • OgreD3D9Texture: also generate mipmaps for NPOT textures
  • OgreQuaternion: Norm should take the square root
• All GL Render Systems:
  • consistent handling of PF_DEPTH
  • consistently print all extensions on a single line
  • fix swizzling for luminance formats
  • generate mipmaps after blitting level 0 and remove software path
  • introduce RSC_DEBUG to simplify checks
  • map GL_RGB8 to PF_R8G8B8 instead of PF_X8R8G8B8 to be consistent
• GL3Plus
  • add glsl450 shader profile
  • disable PBOs for texture uploading (performance warning)
  • explicitly mark unsupported formats to get warnings for misses
  • fix glDebugMessageInsert usage and spam by beginProfileEvent
  • fix GL_DEBUG_OUTPUT mode
  • update gl3w to latest upstream using pre 4.5 GL/glcorearb.h
• GLES2:
  • allow compressed 3D textures also when using the extension
  • allow enabling of array texture support at runtime
  • allow pure depth/ stencil FBOs on Android
  • declare glsl300es/ glsl310es/ glsl320es shader profiles
  • do no exclude classes from compilation in GLES2 mode
  • drop gles2w as GLES3 is backward compatible
  • except if unimplemented path is used
  • explicitly mark unsupported formats to get warnings for misses
  • glLabelObjectEXT must be called after glBindBuffer
  • HardwarePixelBuffer - unify GLES2/3 upload paths
  • iOS - guard SSO RSC declaration instead of every usage site
  • remove unused header
  • replace EXT by gl3core functions at runtime
  • skip unprefixed extensions on emscripten for consistency
  • support GL_ANGLE_instanced_arrays
  • use RSC_VERTEX_BUFFER_INSTANCE_DATA instead of ext string
  • fix PF_BYTE_LA
  • fix loading compressed DDS mipmaps
• RTSS
  • add strict mode
  • assert that FunctionInvocation parameters are not NULL
  • deprecate looking up materials by name to speed up things
  • listen for Material removed events and remove according techniques
• Samples
  • SampleBrowser: do not drop all RTShader techniques on sample unload. This broke loading any RTSS using sample.
  • AndroidJNI - port to ApplicationContext
  • DeferredShading - make it compatible with the RTSS
  • Emscripten - allow using STRICT_MODE
  • Terrain - check for capability instead of RS name
  • use gles300es profile instead of compile option for checking
  • move android JNI sample to Samples dir
  • Python: allow simple sample to run with RTSS
• Tests
  • add Quaternion::Norm test
  • update for FFP usage exceptions
  • stop using SharedPtr to std containers. They are managed already
  • PlayPen_BlitSubTextures: allocate matching format so GLES2 can pass
• Other Changes:
  • Bites: ApplicationContext - do not require android_native_app_glue
  • HLMS: stop using StringVectorPtr [minor API break]
  • D3D9: replace getErrorDescription by DXGetErrorDescription
  • CI
    • Android - build JNI sample
    • update to visual studio 2017
  • CMake
    • detect all required headers in one run
    • factor out copy_assets_to_android_proj
    • remove OGRE_USE_BOOST option
  • Docs
    • changelog - use more markdown for formatting and add 1.10 stub
    • port Deferred Shading Tutorial to Doxygen
    • update 1.10 Notes
