• Main:
  • add top level aliases for resource groups e.g. RGN_DEFAULT
  • add two-argument OGRE_EXCEPT using __FUNCTION__ as src
  • CompositionPass - allow specifying the type at creation
  • CompositorManager - const correctness and method naming updates
  • deprecate RenderSystem::_makeProjectionMatrix method family
  • fix loading PF_BYTE_LA - add correct masks and shifts
  • GpuProgramManager - clean up Microcode Cache API
  • PassTranslator - auto assign inline defined GpuPrograms
  • properly use std:: math overloads instead of casting to Real
  • RenderSystem - drop commented out methods
  • ResourceManager - prevent creation of "" named resources
  • SceneManager - fireRenderSingleObject after updating light lists
  • SceneManager - let AutoParamDataSource handle the world matrices
  • ScriptLexer - print error instead of throwing on syntax errors
  • ScriptTranslator - also special case targets property
  • ScriptTranslator - use atom->id to parse CompositionPass::PassType
  • ShadowVolumeExtrudeProgram - use cg as backwards compatible hlsl
  • Texture & RenderTarget - add simplified getCustomAttribute
  • Texture - unify loading between all rendersystems
  • TextureUnitState - fix wrong type check in setTexture
  • use Matrix4::CLIPSPACE2DTOIMAGESPACE in AutoParamDataSource
  • add TEX_TYPE_EXTERNAL_OES and android sample of its usage (#914)
  • use source code instead of program names as microcode cache key
  • fix Wconversion warnings in public headers
  • DataStream: clear access mode on close, avoid repetitive compression by DeflateStream when close is called explicitly and then implicitly in .dtor
  • DeflateStream: allow to specify required stream wrapping among supported by ZLib - mostly for GZip variation. Default is ZLib for backward compatibility.
  • use Math::calculateBasicFaceNormal instead of ad-hoc solutions
  • APKFileSystemArchive - only erase elements that existed in the map
• CMake:
  • fill version info from project() instead of parsing header
  • Use system freetype library if found
  • Fixed the inconsistency use of CMAKE_BINARY_DIR and CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR in some cases. Instead, they are replaced by PROJECT_BINARY_DIR and PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR correspondingly.
• Bites:
  • Android - return created render window/ native window pair instead of null values (#964)
  • ApplicationContext - shader cache was truncated with no changes
• RTSS
  • New "Next Gen" API
    • introduce FunctionStageRef for simplified function invocation
    • add resolve{Input,Output}Parameter by content only overload
    • automatically create parameters if content is not found
    • allow resolving input parameters by ParameterPtr
    • add resolveParameter overload for simple autoconstants
    • add SampleTextureAtom to remove FFP_SampleTexture() indirection
    • track unused parameters and skip binding them
    • ShaderFunction - deprecate static getParameter* API
    • replace g_AutoParameters by AutoConstantDictionary from Main
  • merge Cg and HLSL program writers
  • use shared HLSL_Cg shader lib based on Cg variants
  • skip binding samplers on HLSL and Cg
  • merge FFP Lighting and SGX PerPixelLighting
  • add FFP_Lerp(vec3, vec3, vec3) as needed by BLEND_DIFFUSE_COLOUR
  • use AutoParamDataSource for lights and merge update methods
  • Cg - clamp lighting values as well
  • clean up resolveLocalParameter functions
  • do not special case HLSL4 semantics as we use the compat profile
  • do not transform normal if it is not needed
  • fix renaming of custom uniform input parameters
  • GLSL
    • add compatibility defines for sampling function names
    • also redefine texture1D() as texture()
    • consistently clamp per-pixel and ffp lighting
    • ShaderGLSLProgramWriter - allow MRT output from fragment shader
  • GLSLES
    • add support for GL_OES_EGL_image_external
    • write forward declarations to resolve dependencies
    • avoid emitting texture1D code instead of filtering it
  • hardware skinning - do not generate unused local world position
  • SampleTextureAtom - move out argument to end for consistency
  • ShaderGenerator - add overloads for known source technique
  • Texturing - fixes for BLEND_DIFFUSE_ALPHA and BLEND_DIFFUSE_COLOUR
  • TriplanarTexturing - correctly resolve input params
  • SegmentedLights - use fmod which is supported by hlsl and cg
  • ShaderExNormalMapLighting - clamp supported lights to 8
• Overlay: make error message more useful if component is not a container
• PageManager: call Camera::removeListener on destruction (#922)
• Terrain: use Cg shadergen for HLSL as well
• Java: use proper java 1.5+ enums
• MeshLod:
  • collapseVertex() can erase more then one vertex from mCollapseCostHeap, therefore we must ask size each time. Fortunately, it's constant time operation.
  • consequently use uint16 leveraging the new Math::uint16Cast
  • LodData structures layout optimization
• D3D11:
  • only support loading DDS using Ogre Codecs
  • Texture - do not overload/ use loadImage internally
  • use a better heuristic for naming the rendertextures
• D3D9: use Ogre Codecs instead of D3D9X to load DDS files
• GL3+/GLES2: drop areFixedFunctionLightsInViewSpace as there is no FFP
• GLSupport
  • GLX - correctly handle windowMovedOrResized with parent win
  • Fixed incorrect EGL config id return as EGL config
  • introduce internal GLRenderTarget & GLFBOCommon interfaces
  • Added support for assigning custom windowProc
  • AndroidEGLWindow: handle the parameter "externalGLControl" in when create (#963)
  • remove dependency on legacy libGL.so
• Docs
  • correctly use ScriptTranslator in TextureSource UML
  • document "windowProc" _createRenderWindow parameter
  • make explicit that top level Overlay components must be containers
  • Resource Management - add sequence diagram and fix declaration part
  • Resource Management - group information on a single manual page

  • Ocean - refactor to use unified programs
• Tests
  • make ONLY_COMMON_GL_TESTS an environment variable
  • PlayPen_SkeletonAnimationOptimise use modulative shadowing
