Supported material types #311

Open vorg opened 2 years ago

vorg commented 2 years ago

Currently we support:

pbr with shadows
unlit

Would be good to have

basic (wrapped)diffuse + shadows - for lightweight scene previz and tools
unlit with shadows?

What about?

thick line rendering? (ecs.Draw Instanced Segments)
particles? (

vorg commented 2 years ago

Line rendering would be good to have internally anyway for all the gizmos/helpers.

dmnsgn commented 2 years ago

Simple primitive line (aka wireframe) before thick lines?

vorg commented 2 years ago

gl.Lines are supported. It's a not well known feature but it already works out of the box thanks to pex-context

But need edges to be computed

Any matcap material needed?

vorg commented 2 years ago

Haven't used Matcap in ages. For quick debug scenes i've used wrapped diffuse with random color per mesh + sometimes shadows (ecs.Draw Base Color and friends)

dmnsgn commented 1 year ago

v4 renderers:

standard PBR (default render engine or standardRendererSystem)
basic with shadows (basicRendererSystem)
thick line rendering via material.type "segments"
helper GL lines (could be abstracted)

Could standard and basic be mixed in the same view? There is confusion between line and segments (uses lineRenderer).

vorg commented 10 months ago

Standard and basic can be mixed. Let me check on the segment naming.
