Pack multiple vertex and index arrays together into growable buffers. (#14257)
This commit uses the [`offset-allocator`] crate to combine vertex and index arrays from different meshes into single buffers. Since the primary source of `wgpu` overhead is from validation and synchronization when switching buffers, this significantly improves Bevy's rendering performance on many scenes. This patch is a more flexible version of #13218, which also used slabs. Unlike #13218, which used slabs of a fixed size, this commit implements slabs that start small and can grow. In addition to reducing memory usage, supporting slab growth reduces the number of vertex and index buffer switches that need to happen during rendering, leading to improved performance. To prevent pathological fragmentation behavior, slabs are capped to a maximum size, and mesh arrays that are too large get their own dedicated slabs. As an additional improvement over #13218, this commit allows the application to customize all allocator heuristics. The `MeshAllocatorSettings` resource contains values that adjust the minimum and maximum slab sizes, the cutoff point at which meshes get their own dedicated slabs, and the rate at which slabs grow. Hopefully-sensible defaults have been chosen for each value. Unfortunately, WebGL 2 doesn't support the *base vertex* feature, which is necessary to pack vertex arrays from different meshes into the same buffer. `wgpu` represents this restriction as the downlevel flag `BASE_VERTEX`. This patch detects that bit and ensures that all vertex buffers get dedicated slabs on that platform. Even on WebGL 2, though, we can combine all *index* arrays into single buffers to reduce buffer changes, and we do so. The following measurements are on Bistro: Overall frame time improves from 8.74 ms to 5.53 ms (1.58x speedup):  Render system time improves from 6.57 ms to 3.54 ms (1.86x speedup):  Opaque pass time improves from 4.64 ms to 2.33 ms (1.99x speedup):  ## Migration Guide ### Changed * Vertex and index buffers for meshes may now be packed alongside other buffers, for performance. * `GpuMesh` has been renamed to `RenderMesh`, to reflect the fact that it no longer directly stores handles to GPU objects. * Because meshes no longer have their own vertex and index buffers, the responsibility for the buffers has moved from `GpuMesh` (now called `RenderMesh`) to the `MeshAllocator` resource. To access the vertex data for a mesh, use `MeshAllocator::mesh_vertex_slice`. To access the index data for a mesh, use `MeshAllocator::mesh_index_slice`.

Fix intra-doc links and make CI test them (#14076)
# Objective - Bevy currently has lot of invalid intra-doc links, let's fix them! - Also make CI test them, to avoid future regressions. - Helps with #1983 (but doesn't fix it, as there could still be explicit links to docs.rs that are broken) ## Solution - Make `cargo r -p ci -- doc-check` check fail on warnings (could also be changed to just some specific lints) - Manually fix all the warnings (note that in some cases it was unclear to me what the fix should have been, I'll try to highlight them in a self-review) |

Added feature switch to default Standard Material's new anisotropy texture to off (#14048)
# Objective - Standard Material is starting to run out of samplers (currently uses 13 with no additional features off, I think in 0.13 it was 12). - This change adds a new feature switch, modelled on the other ones which add features to Standard Material, to turn off the new anisotropy feature by default. ## Solution - feature + texture define ## Testing - Anisotropy example still works fine - Other samples work fine - Standard Material now takes 12 samplers by default on my Mac instead of 13 ## Migration Guide - Add feature pbr_anisotropy_texture if you are using that texture in any standard materials. --------- Co-authored-by: John Payne <20407779+johngpayne@users.noreply.github.com> |

Normalise matrix naming (#13489)
# Objective - Fixes #10909 - Fixes #8492 ## Solution - Name all matrices `x_from_y`, for example `world_from_view`. ## Testing - I've tested most of the 3D examples. The `lighting` example particularly should hit a lot of the changes and appears to run fine. --- ## Changelog - Renamed matrices across the engine to follow a `y_from_x` naming, making the space conversion more obvious. ## Migration Guide - `Frustum`'s `from_view_projection`, `from_view_projection_custom_far` and `from_view_projection_no_far` were renamed to `from_clip_from_world`, `from_clip_from_world_custom_far` and `from_clip_from_world_no_far`. - `ComputedCameraValues::projection_matrix` was renamed to `clip_from_view`. - `CameraProjection::get_projection_matrix` was renamed to `get_clip_from_view` (this affects implementations on `Projection`, `PerspectiveProjection` and `OrthographicProjection`). - `ViewRangefinder3d::from_view_matrix` was renamed to `from_world_from_view`. - `PreviousViewData`'s members were renamed to `view_from_world` and `clip_from_world`. - `ExtractedView`'s `projection`, `transform` and `view_projection` were renamed to `clip_from_view`, `world_from_view` and `clip_from_world`. - `ViewUniform`'s `view_proj`, `unjittered_view_proj`, `inverse_view_proj`, `view`, `inverse_view`, `projection` and `inverse_projection` were renamed to `clip_from_world`, `unjittered_clip_from_world`, `world_from_clip`, `world_from_view`, `view_from_world`, `clip_from_view` and `view_from_clip`. - `GpuDirectionalCascade::view_projection` was renamed to `clip_from_world`. - `MeshTransforms`' `transform` and `previous_transform` were renamed to `world_from_local` and `previous_world_from_local`. - `MeshUniform`'s `transform`, `previous_transform`, `inverse_transpose_model_a` and `inverse_transpose_model_b` were renamed to `world_from_local`, `previous_world_from_local`, `local_from_world_transpose_a` and `local_from_world_transpose_b` (the `Mesh` type in WGSL mirrors this, however `transform` and `previous_transform` were named `model` and `previous_model`). - `Mesh2dTransforms::transform` was renamed to `world_from_local`. - `Mesh2dUniform`'s `transform`, `inverse_transpose_model_a` and `inverse_transpose_model_b` were renamed to `world_from_local`, `local_from_world_transpose_a` and `local_from_world_transpose_b` (the `Mesh2d` type in WGSL mirrors this). - In WGSL, in `bevy_pbr::mesh_functions`, `get_model_matrix` and `get_previous_model_matrix` were renamed to `get_world_from_local` and `get_previous_world_from_local`. - In WGSL, `bevy_sprite::mesh2d_functions::get_model_matrix` was renamed to `get_world_from_local`. |

Implement motion vectors and TAA for skinned meshes and meshes with morph targets. (#13572)
This is a revamped equivalent to #9902, though it shares none of the code. It handles all special cases that I've tested correctly. The overall technique consists of double-buffering the joint matrix and morph weights buffers, as most of the previous attempts to solve this problem did. The process is generally straightforward. Note that, to avoid regressing the ability of mesh extraction, skin extraction, and morph target extraction to run in parallel, I had to add a new system to rendering, `set_mesh_motion_vector_flags`. The comment there explains the details; it generally runs very quickly. I've tested this with modified versions of the `animated_fox`, `morph_targets`, and `many_foxes` examples that add TAA, and the patch works. To avoid bloating those examples, I didn't add switches for TAA to them. Addresses points (1) and (2) of #8423. ## Changelog ### Fixed * Motion vectors, and therefore TAA, are now supported for meshes with skins and/or morph targets. |

Implement opt-in sharp screen-space reflections for the deferred renderer, with improved raymarching code. (#13418)
This commit, a revamp of #12959, implements screen-space reflections (SSR), which approximate real-time reflections based on raymarching through the depth buffer and copying samples from the final rendered frame. This patch is a relatively minimal implementation of SSR, so as to provide a flexible base on which to customize and build in the future. However, it's based on the production-quality [raymarching code by Tomasz Stachowiak](https://gist.github.com/h3r2tic/9c8356bdaefbe80b1a22ae0aaee192db). For a general basic overview of screen-space reflections, see [1](https://lettier.github.io/3d-game-shaders-for-beginners/screen-space-reflection.html). The raymarching shader uses the basic algorithm of tracing forward in large steps, refining that trace in smaller increments via binary search, and then using the secant method. No temporal filtering or roughness blurring, is performed at all; for this reason, SSR currently only operates on very shiny surfaces. No acceleration via the hierarchical Z-buffer is implemented (though note that https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/12899 will add the infrastructure for this). Reflections are traced at full resolution, which is often considered slow. All of these improvements and more can be follow-ups. SSR is built on top of the deferred renderer and is currently only supported in that mode. Forward screen-space reflections are possible albeit uncommon (though e.g. *Doom Eternal* uses them); however, they require tracing from the previous frame, which would add complexity. This patch leaves the door open to implementing SSR in the forward rendering path but doesn't itself have such an implementation. Screen-space reflections aren't supported in WebGL 2, because they require sampling from the depth buffer, which Naga can't do because of a bug (`sampler2DShadow` is incorrectly generated instead of `sampler2D`; this is the same reason why depth of field is disabled on that platform). To add screen-space reflections to a camera, use the `ScreenSpaceReflectionsBundle` bundle or the `ScreenSpaceReflectionsSettings` component. In addition to `ScreenSpaceReflectionsSettings`, `DepthPrepass` and `DeferredPrepass` must also be present for the reflections to show up. The `ScreenSpaceReflectionsSettings` component contains several settings that artists can tweak, and also comes with sensible defaults. A new example, `ssr`, has been added. It's loosely based on the [three.js ocean sample](https://threejs.org/examples/webgl_shaders_ocean.html), but all the assets are original. Note that the three.js demo has no screen-space reflections and instead renders a mirror world. In contrast to #12959, this demo tests not only a cube but also a more complex model (the flight helmet). ## Changelog ### Added * Screen-space reflections can be enabled for very smooth surfaces by adding the `ScreenSpaceReflections` component to a camera. Deferred rendering must be enabled for the reflections to appear.   |

Implement volumetric fog and volumetric lighting, also known as light shafts or god rays. (#13057)
This commit implements a more physically-accurate, but slower, form of fog than the `bevy_pbr::fog` module does. Notably, this *volumetric fog* allows for light beams from directional lights to shine through, creating what is known as *light shafts* or *god rays*. To add volumetric fog to a scene, add `VolumetricFogSettings` to the camera, and add `VolumetricLight` to directional lights that you wish to be volumetric. `VolumetricFogSettings` has numerous settings that allow you to define the accuracy of the simulation, as well as the look of the fog. Currently, only interaction with directional lights that have shadow maps is supported. Note that the overhead of the effect scales directly with the number of directional lights in use, so apply `VolumetricLight` sparingly for the best results. The overall algorithm, which is implemented as a postprocessing effect, is a combination of the techniques described in [Scratchapixel] and [this blog post]. It uses raymarching in screen space, transformed into shadow map space for sampling and combined with physically-based modeling of absorption and scattering. Bevy employs the widely-used [Henyey-Greenstein phase function] to model asymmetry; this essentially allows light shafts to fade into and out of existence as the user views them. Volumetric rendering is a huge subject, and I deliberately kept the scope of this commit small. Possible follow-ups include: 1. Raymarching at a lower resolution. 2. A post-processing blur (especially useful when combined with (1)). 3. Supporting point lights and spot lights. 4. Supporting lights with no shadow maps. 5. Supporting irradiance volumes and reflection probes. 6. Voxel components that reuse the volumetric fog code to create voxel shapes. 7. *Horizon: Zero Dawn*-style clouds. These are all useful, but out of scope of this patch for now, to keep things tidy and easy to review. A new example, `volumetric_fog`, has been added to demonstrate the effect. ## Changelog ### Added * A new component, `VolumetricFog`, is available, to allow for a more physically-accurate, but more resource-intensive, form of fog. * A new component, `VolumetricLight`, can be placed on directional lights to make them interact with `VolumetricFog`. Notably, this allows such lights to emit light shafts/god rays.

Add UV channel selection to StandardMaterial (#13200)
# Objective - The StandardMaterial always uses ATTRIBUTE_UV_0 for each texture except lightmap. This is not flexible enough for a lot of gltf Files. - Fixes #12496 - Fixes #13086 - Fixes #13122 - Closes #13153 ## Solution - The StandardMaterial gets extended for each texture by an UvChannel enum. It defaults to Uv0 but can also be set to Uv1. - The gltf loader now handles the texcoord information. If the texcoord is not supported it creates a warning. - It uses StandardMaterial shader defs to define which attribute to use. ## Testing This fixes #12496 for example:  For testing of all kind of textures I used the TextureTransformMultiTest from https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glTF-Sample-Assets/tree/main/Models/TextureTransformMultiTest Its purpose is to test multiple texture transfroms but it is also a good test for different texcoords. It also shows the issue with emission #13133. Before:  After:  |

Implement clearcoat per the Filament and the KHR_materials_clearcoat specifications. (#13031)
Clearcoat is a separate material layer that represents a thin translucent layer of a material. Examples include (from the [Filament spec]) car paint, soda cans, and lacquered wood. This commit implements support for clearcoat following the Filament and Khronos specifications, marking the beginnings of support for multiple PBR layers in Bevy. The [`KHR_materials_clearcoat`] specification describes the clearcoat support in glTF. In Blender, applying a clearcoat to the Principled BSDF node causes the clearcoat settings to be exported via this extension. As of this commit, Bevy parses and reads the extension data when present in glTF. Note that the `gltf` crate has no support for `KHR_materials_clearcoat`; this patch therefore implements the JSON semantics manually. Clearcoat is integrated with `StandardMaterial`, but the code is behind a series of `#ifdef`s that only activate when clearcoat is present. Additionally, the `pbr_feature_layer_material_textures` Cargo feature must be active in order to enable support for clearcoat factor maps, clearcoat roughness maps, and clearcoat normal maps. This approach mirrors the same pattern used by the existing transmission feature and exists to avoid running out of texture bindings on platforms like WebGL and WebGPU. Note that constant clearcoat factors and roughness values *are* supported in the browser; only the relatively-less-common maps are disabled on those platforms. This patch refactors the lighting code in `StandardMaterial` significantly in order to better support multiple layers in a natural way. That code was due for a refactor in any case, so this is a nice improvement. A new demo, `clearcoat`, has been added. It's based on [the corresponding three.js demo], but all the assets (aside from the skybox and environment map) are my original work. [Filament spec]: https://google.github.io/filament/Filament.html#materialsystem/clearcoatmodel [`KHR_materials_clearcoat`]: https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glTF/blob/main/extensions/2.0/Khronos/KHR_materials_clearcoat/README.md [the corresponding three.js demo]: https://threejs.org/examples/webgl_materials_physical_clearcoat.html   ## Changelog ### Added * `StandardMaterial` now supports a clearcoat layer, which represents a thin translucent layer over an underlying material. * The glTF loader now supports the `KHR_materials_clearcoat` extension, representing materials with clearcoat layers. ## Migration Guide * The lighting functions in the `pbr_lighting` WGSL module now have clearcoat parameters, if `STANDARD_MATERIAL_CLEARCOAT` is defined. * The `R` reflection vector parameter has been removed from some lighting functions, as it was unused. |

Implement visibility ranges, also known as hierarchical levels of detail (HLODs). (#12916)
Implement visibility ranges, also known as hierarchical levels of detail (HLODs). This commit introduces a new component, `VisibilityRange`, which allows developers to specify camera distances in which meshes are to be shown and hidden. Hiding meshes happens early in the rendering pipeline, so this feature can be used for level of detail optimization. Additionally, this feature is properly evaluated per-view, so different views can show different levels of detail. This feature differs from proper mesh LODs, which can be implemented later. Engines generally implement true mesh LODs later in the pipeline; they're typically more efficient than HLODs with GPU-driven rendering. However, mesh LODs are more limited than HLODs, because they require the lower levels of detail to be meshes with the same vertex layout and shader (and perhaps the same material) as the original mesh. Games often want to use objects other than meshes to replace distant models, such as *octahedral imposters* or *billboard imposters*. The reason why the feature is called *hierarchical level of detail* is that HLODs can replace multiple meshes with a single mesh when the camera is far away. This can be useful for reducing drawcall count. Note that `VisibilityRange` doesn't automatically propagate down to children; it must be placed on every mesh. Crossfading between different levels of detail is supported, using the standard 4x4 ordered dithering pattern from [1]. The shader code to compute the dithering patterns should be well-optimized. The dithering code is only active when visibility ranges are in use for the mesh in question, so that we don't lose early Z. Cascaded shadow maps show the HLOD level of the view they're associated with. Point light and spot light shadow maps, which have no CSMs, display all HLOD levels that are visible in any view. To support this efficiently and avoid doing visibility checks multiple times, we precalculate all visible HLOD levels for each entity with a `VisibilityRange` during the `check_visibility_range` system. A new example, `visibility_range`, has been added to the tree, as well as a new low-poly version of the flight helmet model to go with it. It demonstrates use of the visibility range feature to provide levels of detail. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordered_dithering#Threshold_map [^1]: Unreal doesn't have a feature that exactly corresponds to visibility ranges, but Unreal's HLOD system serves roughly the same purpose. ## Changelog ### Added * A new `VisibilityRange` component is available to conditionally enable entity visibility at camera distances, with optional crossfade support. This can be used to implement different levels of detail (LODs). ## Screenshots High-poly model:  Low-poly model up close:  Crossfading between the two:  --------- Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com> |

Implement GPU frustum culling. (#12889)
This commit implements opt-in GPU frustum culling, built on top of the infrastructure in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/12773. To enable it on a camera, add the `GpuCulling` component to it. To additionally disable CPU frustum culling, add the `NoCpuCulling` component. Note that adding `GpuCulling` without `NoCpuCulling` *currently* does nothing useful. The reason why `GpuCulling` doesn't automatically imply `NoCpuCulling` is that I intend to follow this patch up with GPU two-phase occlusion culling, and CPU frustum culling plus GPU occlusion culling seems like a very commonly-desired mode. Adding the `GpuCulling` component to a view puts that view into *indirect mode*. This mode makes all drawcalls indirect, relying on the mesh preprocessing shader to allocate instances dynamically. In indirect mode, the `PreprocessWorkItem` `output_index` points not to a `MeshUniform` instance slot but instead to a set of `wgpu` `IndirectParameters`, from which it allocates an instance slot dynamically if frustum culling succeeds. Batch building has been updated to allocate and track indirect parameter slots, and the AABBs are now supplied to the GPU as `MeshCullingData`. A small amount of code relating to the frustum culling has been borrowed from meshlets and moved into `maths.wgsl`. Note that standard Bevy frustum culling uses AABBs, while meshlets use bounding spheres; this means that not as much code can be shared as one might think. This patch doesn't provide any way to perform GPU culling on shadow maps, to avoid making this patch bigger than it already is. That can be a followup. ## Changelog ### Added * Frustum culling can now optionally be done on the GPU. To enable it, add the `GpuCulling` component to a camera. * To disable CPU frustum culling, add `NoCpuCulling` to a camera. Note that `GpuCulling` doesn't automatically imply `NoCpuCulling`. |

Implement alpha to coverage (A2C) support. (#12970)
[Alpha to coverage] (A2C) replaces alpha blending with a hardware-specific multisample coverage mask when multisample antialiasing is in use. It's a simple form of [order-independent transparency] that relies on MSAA. ["Anti-aliased Alpha Test: The Esoteric Alpha To Coverage"] is a good summary of the motivation for and best practices relating to A2C. This commit implements alpha to coverage support as a new variant for `AlphaMode`. You can supply `AlphaMode::AlphaToCoverage` as the `alpha_mode` field in `StandardMaterial` to use it. When in use, the standard material shader automatically applies the texture filtering method from ["Anti-aliased Alpha Test: The Esoteric Alpha To Coverage"]. Objects with alpha-to-coverage materials are binned in the opaque pass, as they're fully order-independent. The `transparency_3d` example has been updated to feature an object with alpha to coverage. Happily, the example was already using MSAA. This is part of #2223, as far as I can tell.

Implement percentage-closer filtering (PCF) for point lights. (#12910)
I ported the two existing PCF techniques to the cubemap domain as best I could. Generally, the technique is to create a 2D orthonormal basis using Gram-Schmidt normalization, then apply the technique over that basis. The results look fine, though the shadow bias often needs adjusting. For comparison, Unity uses a 4-tap pattern for PCF on point lights of (1, 1, 1), (-1, -1, 1), (-1, 1, -1), (1, -1, -1). I tried this but didn't like the look, so I went with the design above, which ports the 2D techniques to the 3D domain. There's surprisingly little material on point light PCF. I've gone through every example using point lights and verified that the shadow maps look fine, adjusting biases as necessary. Fixes #3628. --- ## Changelog ### Added * Shadows from point lights now support percentage-closer filtering (PCF), and as a result look less aliased. ### Changed * `ShadowFilteringMethod::Castano13` and `ShadowFilteringMethod::Jimenez14` have been renamed to `ShadowFilteringMethod::Gaussian` and `ShadowFilteringMethod::Temporal` respectively. ## Migration Guide * `ShadowFilteringMethod::Castano13` and `ShadowFilteringMethod::Jimenez14` have been renamed to `ShadowFilteringMethod::Gaussian` and `ShadowFilteringMethod::Temporal` respectively. |

Generate MeshUniforms on the GPU via compute shader where available. (#12773)
Currently, `MeshUniform`s are rather large: 160 bytes. They're also somewhat expensive to compute, because they involve taking the inverse of a 3x4 matrix. Finally, if a mesh is present in multiple views, that mesh will have a separate `MeshUniform` for each and every view, which is wasteful. This commit fixes these issues by introducing the concept of a *mesh input uniform* and adding a *mesh uniform building* compute shader pass. The `MeshInputUniform` is simply the minimum amount of data needed for the GPU to compute the full `MeshUniform`. Most of this data is just the transform and is therefore only 64 bytes. `MeshInputUniform`s are computed during the *extraction* phase, much like skins are today, in order to avoid needlessly copying transforms around on CPU. (In fact, the render app has been changed to only store the translation of each mesh; it no longer cares about any other part of the transform, which is stored only on the GPU and the main world.) Before rendering, the `build_mesh_uniforms` pass runs to expand the `MeshInputUniform`s to the full `MeshUniform`. The mesh uniform building pass does the following, all on GPU: 1. Copy the appropriate fields of the `MeshInputUniform` to the `MeshUniform` slot. If a single mesh is present in multiple views, this effectively duplicates it into each view. 2. Compute the inverse transpose of the model transform, used for transforming normals. 3. If applicable, copy the mesh's transform from the previous frame for TAA. To support this, we double-buffer the `MeshInputUniform`s over two frames and swap the buffers each frame. The `MeshInputUniform`s for the current frame contain the index of that mesh's `MeshInputUniform` for the previous frame. This commit produces wins in virtually every CPU part of the pipeline: `extract_meshes`, `queue_material_meshes`, `batch_and_prepare_render_phase`, and especially `write_batched_instance_buffer` are all faster. Shrinking the amount of CPU data that has to be shuffled around speeds up the entire rendering process. | Benchmark | This branch | `main` | Speedup | |------------------------|-------------|---------|---------| | `many_cubes -nfc` | 17.259 | 24.529 | 42.12% | | `many_cubes -nfc -vpi` | 302.116 | 312.123 | 3.31% | | `many_foxes` | 3.227 | 3.515 | 8.92% | Because mesh uniform building requires compute shader, and WebGL 2 has no compute shader, the existing CPU mesh uniform building code has been left as-is. Many types now have both CPU mesh uniform building and GPU mesh uniform building modes. Developers can opt into the old CPU mesh uniform building by setting the `use_gpu_uniform_builder` option on `PbrPlugin` to `false`. Below are graphs of the CPU portions of `many-cubes --no-frustum-culling`. Yellow is this branch, red is `main`. `extract_meshes`:  It's notable that we get a small win even though we're now writing to a GPU buffer. `queue_material_meshes`:  There's a bit of a regression here; not sure what's causing it. In any case it's very outweighed by the other gains. `batch_and_prepare_render_phase`:  There's a huge win here, enough to make batching basically drop off the profile. `write_batched_instance_buffer`:  There's a massive improvement here, as expected. Note that a lot of it simply comes from the fact that `MeshInputUniform` is `Pod`. (This isn't a maintainability problem in my view because `MeshInputUniform` is so simple: just 16 tightly-packed words.) ## Changelog ### Added * Per-mesh instance data is now generated on GPU with a compute shader instead of CPU, resulting in rendering performance improvements on platforms where compute shaders are supported. ## Migration guide * Custom render phases now need multiple systems beyond just `batch_and_prepare_render_phase`. Code that was previously creating custom render phases should now add a `BinnedRenderPhasePlugin` or `SortedRenderPhasePlugin` as appropriate instead of directly adding `batch_and_prepare_render_phase`. |

Consolidate Render(Ui)Materials(2d) into RenderAssets (#12827)
# Objective - Replace `RenderMaterials` / `RenderMaterials2d` / `RenderUiMaterials` with `RenderAssets` to enable implementing changes to one thing, `RenderAssets`, that applies to all use cases rather than duplicating changes everywhere for multiple things that should be one thing. - Adopts #8149 ## Solution - Make RenderAsset generic over the destination type rather than the source type as in #8149 - Use `RenderAssets<PreparedMaterial<M>>` etc for render materials --- ## Changelog - Changed: - The `RenderAsset` trait is now implemented on the destination type. Its `SourceAsset` associated type refers to the type of the source asset. - `RenderMaterials`, `RenderMaterials2d`, and `RenderUiMaterials` have been replaced by `RenderAssets<PreparedMaterial<M>>` and similar. ## Migration Guide - `RenderAsset` is now implemented for the destination type rather that the source asset type. The source asset type is now the `RenderAsset` trait's `SourceAsset` associated type. |

Micro-optimize queue_material_meshes, primarily to remove bit manipulation. (#12791)
This commit makes the following optimizations: ## `MeshPipelineKey`/`BaseMeshPipelineKey` split `MeshPipelineKey` has been split into `BaseMeshPipelineKey`, which lives in `bevy_render` and `MeshPipelineKey`, which lives in `bevy_pbr`. Conceptually, `BaseMeshPipelineKey` is a superclass of `MeshPipelineKey`. For `BaseMeshPipelineKey`, the bits start at the highest (most significant) bit and grow downward toward the lowest bit; for `MeshPipelineKey`, the bits start at the lowest bit and grow upward toward the highest bit. This prevents them from colliding. The goal of this is to avoid having to reassemble bits of the pipeline key for every mesh every frame. Instead, we can just use a bitwise or operation to combine the pieces that make up a `MeshPipelineKey`. ## `specialize_slow` Previously, all of `specialize()` was marked as `#[inline]`. This bloated `queue_material_meshes` unnecessarily, as a large chunk of it ended up being a slow path that was rarely hit. This commit refactors the function to move the slow path to `specialize_slow()`. Together, these two changes shave about 5% off `queue_material_meshes`:  ## Migration Guide - The `primitive_topology` field on `GpuMesh` is now an accessor method: `GpuMesh::primitive_topology()`. - For performance reasons, `MeshPipelineKey` has been split into `BaseMeshPipelineKey`, which lives in `bevy_render`, and `MeshPipelineKey`, which lives in `bevy_pbr`. These two should be combined with bitwise-or to produce the final `MeshPipelineKey`. |

Refactor App and SubApp internals for better separation (#9202)
# Objective This is a necessary precursor to #9122 (this was split from that PR to reduce the amount of code to review all at once). Moving `!Send` resource ownership to `App` will make it unambiguously `!Send`. `SubApp` must be `Send`, so it can't wrap `App`. ## Solution Refactor `App` and `SubApp` to not have a recursive relationship. Since `SubApp` no longer wraps `App`, once `!Send` resources are moved out of `World` and into `App`, `SubApp` will become unambiguously `Send`. There could be less code duplication between `App` and `SubApp`, but that would break `App` method chaining. ## Changelog - `SubApp` no longer wraps `App`. - `App` fields are no longer publicly accessible. - `App` can no longer be converted into a `SubApp`. - Various methods now return references to a `SubApp` instead of an `App`. ## Migration Guide - To construct a sub-app, use `SubApp::new()`. `App` can no longer convert into `SubApp`. - If you implemented a trait for `App`, you may want to implement it for `SubApp` as well. - If you're accessing `app.world` directly, you now have to use `app.world()` and `app.world_mut()`. - `App::sub_app` now returns `&SubApp`. - `App::sub_app_mut` now returns `&mut SubApp`. - `App::get_sub_app` now returns `Option<&SubApp>.` - `App::get_sub_app_mut` now returns `Option<&mut SubApp>.` |

Improve performance by binning together opaque items instead of sorting them. (#12453)
Today, we sort all entities added to all phases, even the phases that don't strictly need sorting, such as the opaque and shadow phases. This results in a performance loss because our `PhaseItem`s are rather large in memory, so sorting is slow. Additionally, determining the boundaries of batches is an O(n) process. This commit makes Bevy instead applicable place phase items into *bins* keyed by *bin keys*, which have the invariant that everything in the same bin is potentially batchable. This makes determining batch boundaries O(1), because everything in the same bin can be batched. Instead of sorting each entity, we now sort only the bin keys. This drops the sorting time to near-zero on workloads with few bins like `many_cubes --no-frustum-culling`. Memory usage is improved too, with batch boundaries and dynamic indices now implicit instead of explicit. The improved memory usage results in a significant win even on unbatchable workloads like `many_cubes --no-frustum-culling --vary-material-data-per-instance`, presumably due to cache effects. Not all phases can be binned; some, such as transparent and transmissive phases, must still be sorted. To handle this, this commit splits `PhaseItem` into `BinnedPhaseItem` and `SortedPhaseItem`. Most of the logic that today deals with `PhaseItem`s has been moved to `SortedPhaseItem`. `BinnedPhaseItem` has the new logic. Frame time results (in ms/frame) are as follows: | Benchmark | `binning` | `main` | Speedup | | ------------------------ | --------- | ------- | ------- | | `many_cubes -nfc -vpi` | 232.179 | 312.123 | 34.43% | | `many_cubes -nfc` | 25.874 | 30.117 | 16.40% | | `many_foxes` | 3.276 | 3.515 | 7.30% | (`-nfc` is short for `--no-frustum-culling`; `-vpi` is short for `--vary-per-instance`.) --- ## Changelog ### Changed * Render phases have been split into binned and sorted phases. Binned phases, such as the common opaque phase, achieve improved CPU performance by avoiding the sorting step. ## Migration Guide - `PhaseItem` has been split into `BinnedPhaseItem` and `SortedPhaseItem`. If your code has custom `PhaseItem`s, you will need to migrate them to one of these two types. `SortedPhaseItem` requires the fewest code changes, but you may want to pick `BinnedPhaseItem` if your phase doesn't require sorting, as that enables higher performance. ## Tracy graphs `many-cubes --no-frustum-culling`, `main` branch: <img width="1064" alt="Screenshot 2024-03-12 180037" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/e1180ce8-8e89-46d2-85e3-f59f72109a55"> `many-cubes --no-frustum-culling`, this branch: <img width="1064" alt="Screenshot 2024-03-12 180011" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/0899f036-6075-44c5-a972-44d95895f46c"> You can see that `batch_and_prepare_binned_render_phase` is a much smaller fraction of the time.

Intern mesh vertex buffer layouts so that we don't have to compare them over and over. (#12216)
Although we cached hashes of `MeshVertexBufferLayout`, we were paying the cost of `PartialEq` on `InnerMeshVertexBufferLayout` for every entity, every frame. This patch changes that logic to place `MeshVertexBufferLayout`s in `Arc`s so that they can be compared and hashed by pointer. This results in a 28% speedup in the `queue_material_meshes` phase of `many_cubes`, with frustum culling disabled. Additionally, this patch contains two minor changes: 1. This commit flattens the specialized mesh pipeline cache to one level of hash tables instead of two. This saves a hash lookup. 2. The example `many_cubes` has been given a `--no-frustum-culling` flag, to aid in benchmarking. See the Tracy profile: <img width="1064" alt="Screenshot 2024-02-29 144406" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/18632f1d-1fdd-4ac7-90ed-2d10306b2a1e"> ## Migration guide * Duplicate `MeshVertexBufferLayout`s are now combined into a single object, `MeshVertexBufferLayoutRef`, which contains an atomically-reference-counted pointer to the layout. Code that was using `MeshVertexBufferLayout` may need to be updated to use `MeshVertexBufferLayoutRef` instead. |

Prefer UVec2 when working with texture dimensions (#11698)
# Objective
The physical width and height (pixels) of an image is always integers,
but for `GpuImage` bevy currently stores them as `Vec2` (`f32`).
Switching to `UVec2` makes this more consistent with the [underlying
texture data](https://docs.rs/wgpu/latest/wgpu/struct.Extent3d.html).
I'm not sure if this is worth the change in the surface level API. If
not, feel free to close this PR.
## Solution
- Replace uses of `Vec2` with `UVec2` when referring to texture
dimensions.
- Use integer types for the texture atlas dimensions and sections.

Allow Mesh-related queue phase systems to parallelize (#11804)
# Objective Partially addresses #3548. `queue_shadows` and `queue_material_meshes` cannot parallelize because of the `ResMut<RenderMeshInstances>` parameter for `queue_material_meshes`. ## Solution Change the `material_bind_group` field to use atomics instead of needing full mutable access. Change the `ResMut` to a `Res`, which should allow both sets of systems to parallelize without issue. ## Performance Tested against `many_foxes`, this has a significant improvement over the entire render schedule. (Yellow is this PR, red is main)  The use of atomics does seem to have a negative effect on `queue_material_meshes` (roughly a 8.29% increase in time spent in the system).  `queue_shadows` seems to be ever so slightly slower (1.6% more time spent) in the system.  `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` seems to be a mix, but overall seems to be slightly *faster* by about 5%.  |

fix shadow batching (#11645)
# Objective `RenderMeshInstance::material_bind_group_id` is only set from `queue_material_meshes::<M>`. this field is used (only) for determining batch groups, so some items may be batched incorrectly if they have never been in the camera's view or if they don't use the Material abstraction. in particular, shadow views render more meshes than the main camera, and currently batch some meshes where the object has never entered the camera view together. this is quite hard to trigger, but should occur in a scene with out-of-view alpha-mask materials (so that the material instance actually affects the shadow) in the path of a light. this is also a footgun for custom pipelines: failing to set the material_bind_group_id will result in all meshes being batched together and all using the closest/furthest material to the camera (depending on sort order). ## Solution - queue_shadows now sets the material_bind_group_id correctly - `MeshPipeline` doesn't attempt to batch meshes if the material_bind_group_id has not been set. custom pipelines still need to set this field to take advantage of batching, but will at least render correctly if it is not set |

Stop extracting mesh entities to the render world. (#11803)
This fixes a `FIXME` in `extract_meshes` and results in a performance improvement. As a result of this change, meshes in the render world might not be attached to entities anymore. Therefore, the `entity` parameter to `RenderCommand::render()` is now wrapped in an `Option`. Most applications that use the render app's ECS can simply unwrap the `Option`. Note that for now sprites, gizmos, and UI elements still use the render world as usual. ## Migration guide * For efficiency reasons, some meshes in the render world may not have corresponding `Entity` IDs anymore. As a result, the `entity` parameter to `RenderCommand::render()` is now wrapped in an `Option`. Custom rendering code may need to be updated to handle the case in which no `Entity` exists for an object that is to be rendered. |

Implement irradiance volumes. (#10268)
# Objective
Bevy could benefit from *irradiance volumes*, also known as *voxel
global illumination* or simply as light probes (though this term is not
preferred, as multiple techniques can be called light probes).
Irradiance volumes are a form of baked global illumination; they work by
sampling the light at the centers of each voxel within a cuboid. At
runtime, the voxels surrounding the fragment center are sampled and
interpolated to produce indirect diffuse illumination.
## Solution
This is divided into two sections. The first is copied and pasted from
the irradiance volume module documentation and describes the technique.
The second part consists of notes on the implementation.
### Overview
An *irradiance volume* is a cuboid voxel region consisting of
regularly-spaced precomputed samples of diffuse indirect light. They're
ideal if you have a dynamic object such as a character that can move
about
static non-moving geometry such as a level in a game, and you want that
dynamic object to be affected by the light bouncing off that static
geometry.
To use irradiance volumes, you need to precompute, or *bake*, the
indirect
light in your scene. Bevy doesn't currently come with a way to do this.
Fortunately, [Blender] provides a [baking tool] as part of the Eevee
renderer, and its irradiance volumes are compatible with those used by
Bevy.
The [`bevy-baked-gi`] project provides a tool, `export-blender-gi`, that
can
extract the baked irradiance volumes from the Blender `.blend` file and
package them up into a `.ktx2` texture for use by the engine. See the
documentation in the `bevy-baked-gi` project for more details as to this
workflow.
Like all light probes in Bevy, irradiance volumes are 1×1×1 cubes that
can
be arbitrarily scaled, rotated, and positioned in a scene with the
[`bevy_transform::components::Transform`] component. The 3D voxel grid
will
be stretched to fill the interior of the cube, and the illumination from
the
irradiance volume will apply to all fragments within that bounding
region.
Bevy's irradiance volumes are based on Valve's [*ambient cubes*] as used
in
*Half-Life 2* ([Mitchell 2006], slide 27). These encode a single color
of
light from the six 3D cardinal directions and blend the sides together
according to the surface normal.
The primary reason for choosing ambient cubes is to match Blender, so
that
its Eevee renderer can be used for baking. However, they also have some
advantages over the common second-order spherical harmonics approach:
ambient cubes don't suffer from ringing artifacts, they are smaller (6
colors for ambient cubes as opposed to 9 for spherical harmonics), and
evaluation is faster. A smaller basis allows for a denser grid of voxels
with the same storage requirements.
If you wish to use a tool other than `export-blender-gi` to produce the
irradiance volumes, you'll need to pack the irradiance volumes in the
following format. The irradiance volume of resolution *(Rx, Ry, Rz)* is
expected to be a 3D texture of dimensions *(Rx, 2Ry, 3Rz)*. The
unnormalized
texture coordinate *(s, t, p)* of the voxel at coordinate *(x, y, z)*
with
side *S* ∈ *{-X, +X, -Y, +Y, -Z, +Z}* is as follows:
```text
s = x
t = y + ⎰ 0 if S ∈ {-X, -Y, -Z}
⎱ Ry if S ∈ {+X, +Y, +Z}
⎧ 0 if S ∈ {-X, +X}
p = z + ⎨ Rz if S ∈ {-Y, +Y}
⎩ 2Rz if S ∈ {-Z, +Z}
```
Visually, in a left-handed coordinate system with Y up, viewed from the
right, the 3D texture looks like a stacked series of voxel grids, one
for
each cube side, in this order:
| **+X** | **+Y** | **+Z** |
| ------ | ------ | ------ |
| **-X** | **-Y** | **-Z** |
A terminology note: Other engines may refer to irradiance volumes as
*voxel
global illumination*, *VXGI*, or simply as *light probes*. Sometimes
*light
probe* refers to what Bevy calls a reflection probe. In Bevy, *light
probe*
is a generic term that encompasses all cuboid bounding regions that
capture
indirect illumination, whether based on voxels or not.
Note that, if binding arrays aren't supported (e.g. on WebGPU or WebGL
2),
then only the closest irradiance volume to the view will be taken into
account during rendering.

### Implementation notes
This patch generalizes light probes so as to reuse as much code as
possible between irradiance volumes and the existing reflection probes.
This approach was chosen because both techniques share numerous
similarities:
1. Both irradiance volumes and reflection probes are cuboid bounding
regions.
2. Both are responsible for providing baked indirect light.
3. Both techniques involve presenting a variable number of textures to
the shader from which indirect light is sampled. (In the current
implementation, this uses binding arrays.)
4. Both irradiance volumes and reflection probes require gathering and
sorting probes by distance on CPU.
5. Both techniques require the GPU to search through a list of bounding
regions.
6. Both will eventually want to have falloff so that we can smoothly
blend as objects enter and exit the probes' influence ranges. (This is
not implemented yet to keep this patch relatively small and reviewable.)
To do this, we generalize most of the methods in the reflection probes
patch #11366 to be generic over a trait, `LightProbeComponent`. This
trait is implemented by both `EnvironmentMapLight` (for reflection
probes) and `IrradianceVolume` (for irradiance volumes). Using a trait
will allow us to add more types of light probes in the future. In
particular, I highly suspect we will want real-time reflection planes
for mirrors in the future, which can be easily slotted into this
framework.
## Changelog
> This section is optional. If this was a trivial fix, or has no
externally-visible impact, you can delete this section.
### Added
* A new `IrradianceVolume` asset type is available for baked voxelized
light probes. You can bake the global illumination using Blender or
another tool of your choice and use it in Bevy to apply indirect
illumination to dynamic objects.

Use warn_once where relevant instead of manually implementing a single warn check (#11693)
# Objective - Some places manually use a `bool` /`AtomicBool` to warn once. ## Solution - Use the `warn_once` macro which internally creates an `AtomicBool`. Downside: in some case the warning state would have been reset after recreating the struct carrying the warn state, whereas now it will always warn only once per program run (For example, if all `MeshPipeline`s are dropped or the `World` is recreated for `Local<bool>`/ a `bool` resource, which shouldn't happen over the course of a standard `App` run). --- ## Changelog ### Removed - `FontAtlasWarning` has been removed, but the corresponding warning is still emitted. |

Update to wgpu 0.19 and raw-window-handle 0.6 (#11280)
# Objective Keep core dependencies up to date. ## Solution Update the dependencies. wgpu 0.19 only supports raw-window-handle (rwh) 0.6, so bumping that was included in this. The rwh 0.6 version bump is just the simplest way of doing it. There might be a way we can take advantage of wgpu's new safe surface creation api, but I'm not familiar enough with bevy's window management to untangle it and my attempt ended up being a mess of lifetimes and rustc complaining about missing trait impls (that were implemented). Thanks to @MiniaczQ for the (much simpler) rwh 0.6 version bump code. Unblocks https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/9172 and https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10812 ~~This might be blocked on cpal and oboe updating their ndk versions to 0.8, as they both currently target ndk 0.7 which uses rwh 0.5.2~~ Tested on android, and everything seems to work correctly (audio properly stops when minimized, and plays when re-focusing the app). --- ## Changelog - `wgpu` has been updated to 0.19! The long awaited arcanization has been merged (for more info, see https://gfx-rs.github.io/2023/11/24/arcanization.html), and Vulkan should now be working again on Intel GPUs. - Targeting WebGPU now requires that you add the new `webgpu` feature (setting the `RUSTFLAGS` environment variable to `--cfg=web_sys_unstable_apis` is still required). This feature currently overrides the `webgl2` feature if you have both enabled (the `webgl2` feature is enabled by default), so it is not recommended to add it as a default feature to libraries without putting it behind a flag that allows library users to opt out of it! In the future we plan on supporting wasm binaries that can target both webgl2 and webgpu now that wgpu added support for doing so (see https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/11505). - `raw-window-handle` has been updated to version 0.6. ## Migration Guide - `bevy_render::instance_index::get_instance_index()` has been removed as the webgl2 workaround is no longer required as it was fixed upstream in wgpu. The `BASE_INSTANCE_WORKAROUND` shaderdef has also been removed. - WebGPU now requires the new `webgpu` feature to be enabled. The `webgpu` feature currently overrides the `webgl2` feature so you no longer need to disable all default features and re-add them all when targeting `webgpu`, but binaries built with both the `webgpu` and `webgl2` features will only target the webgpu backend, and will only work on browsers that support WebGPU. - Places where you conditionally compiled things for webgl2 need to be updated because of this change, eg: - `#[cfg(any(not(feature = "webgl"), not(target_arch = "wasm32")))]` becomes `#[cfg(any(not(feature = "webgl") ,not(target_arch = "wasm32"), feature = "webgpu"))]` - `#[cfg(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32"))]` becomes `#[cfg(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32", not(feature = "webgpu")))]` - `if cfg!(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32"))` becomes `if cfg!(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32", not(feature = "webgpu")))` - `create_texture_with_data` now also takes a `TextureDataOrder`. You can probably just set this to `TextureDataOrder::default()` - `TextureFormat`'s `block_size` has been renamed to `block_copy_size` - See the `wgpu` changelog for anything I might've missed: https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/blob/trunk/CHANGELOG.md --------- Co-authored-by: François <mockersf@gmail.com> |

Revert rendering-related associated type name changes (#11027)
# Objective > Can anyone explain to me the reasoning of renaming all the types named Query to Data. I'm talking about this PR https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10779 It doesn't make sense to me that a bunch of types that are used to run queries aren't named Query anymore.

optimize batch_and_prepare_render_phase (#11323)
# Objective - since #9685 ,bevy introduce automatic batching of draw commands, - `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` take the responsibility for batching `phaseItem`, - `GetBatchData` trait is used for indentify each phaseitem how to batch. it defines a associated type `Data `used for Query to fetch data from world. - however,the impl of `GetBatchData ` in bevy always set ` type Data=Entity` then we acually get following code `let entity:Entity =query.get(item.entity())` that cause unnecessary overhead . ## Solution - remove associated type `Data ` and `Filter` from `GetBatchData `, - change the type of the `query_item ` parameter in get_batch_data from` Self::Data` to `Entity`. - `batch_and_prepare_render_phase ` no longer takes a query using `F::Data, F::Filter` - `get_batch_data `now returns `Option<(Self::BufferData, Option<Self::CompareData>)>` --- ## Performance based in main merged with #11290 Window 11 ,Intel 13400kf, NV 4070Ti  frame time from 3.34ms to 3 ms, ~ 10%  `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` from 800us ~ 400 us ## Migration Guide trait `GetBatchData` no longer hold associated type `Data `and `Filter` `get_batch_data` `query_item `type from `Self::Data` to `Entity` and return `Option<(Self::BufferData, Option<Self::CompareData>)>` `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` should not have a query |

Implement minimal reflection probes (fixed macOS, iOS, and Android). (#11366)
This pull request re-submits #10057, which was backed out for breaking macOS, iOS, and Android. I've tested this version on macOS and Android and on the iOS simulator. # Objective This pull request implements *reflection probes*, which generalize environment maps to allow for multiple environment maps in the same scene, each of which has an axis-aligned bounding box. This is a standard feature of physically-based renderers and was inspired by [the corresponding feature in Blender's Eevee renderer]. ## Solution This is a minimal implementation of reflection probes that allows artists to define cuboid bounding regions associated with environment maps. For every view, on every frame, a system builds up a list of the nearest 4 reflection probes that are within the view's frustum and supplies that list to the shader. The PBR fragment shader searches through the list, finds the first containing reflection probe, and uses it for indirect lighting, falling back to the view's environment map if none is found. Both forward and deferred renderers are fully supported. A reflection probe is an entity with a pair of components, *LightProbe* and *EnvironmentMapLight* (as well as the standard *SpatialBundle*, to position it in the world). The *LightProbe* component (along with the *Transform*) defines the bounding region, while the *EnvironmentMapLight* component specifies the associated diffuse and specular cubemaps. A frequent question is "why two components instead of just one?" The advantages of this setup are: 1. It's readily extensible to other types of light probes, in particular *irradiance volumes* (also known as ambient cubes or voxel global illumination), which use the same approach of bounding cuboids. With a single component that applies to both reflection probes and irradiance volumes, we can share the logic that implements falloff and blending between multiple light probes between both of those features. 2. It reduces duplication between the existing *EnvironmentMapLight* and these new reflection probes. Systems can treat environment maps attached to cameras the same way they treat environment maps applied to reflection probes if they wish. Internally, we gather up all environment maps in the scene and place them in a cubemap array. At present, this means that all environment maps must have the same size, mipmap count, and texture format. A warning is emitted if this restriction is violated. We could potentially relax this in the future as part of the automatic mipmap generation work, which could easily do texture format conversion as part of its preprocessing. An easy way to generate reflection probe cubemaps is to bake them in Blender and use the `export-blender-gi` tool that's part of the [`bevy-baked-gi`] project. This tool takes a `.blend` file containing baked cubemaps as input and exports cubemap images, pre-filtered with an embedded fork of the [glTF IBL Sampler], alongside a corresponding `.scn.ron` file that the scene spawner can use to recreate the reflection probes. Note that this is intentionally a minimal implementation, to aid reviewability. Known issues are: * Reflection probes are basically unsupported on WebGL 2, because WebGL 2 has no cubemap arrays. (Strictly speaking, you can have precisely one reflection probe in the scene if you have no other cubemaps anywhere, but this isn't very useful.) * Reflection probes have no falloff, so reflections will abruptly change when objects move from one bounding region to another. * As mentioned before, all cubemaps in the world of a given type (diffuse or specular) must have the same size, format, and mipmap count. Future work includes: * Blending between multiple reflection probes. * A falloff/fade-out region so that reflected objects disappear gradually instead of vanishing all at once. * Irradiance volumes for voxel-based global illumination. This should reuse much of the reflection probe logic, as they're both GI techniques based on cuboid bounding regions. * Support for WebGL 2, by breaking batches when reflection probes are used. These issues notwithstanding, I think it's best to land this with roughly the current set of functionality, because this patch is useful as is and adding everything above would make the pull request significantly larger and harder to review. --- ## Changelog ### Added * A new *LightProbe* component is available that specifies a bounding region that an *EnvironmentMapLight* applies to. The combination of a *LightProbe* and an *EnvironmentMapLight* offers *reflection probe* functionality similar to that available in other engines.

Implement lightmaps. (#10231)
 # Objective Lightmaps, textures that store baked global illumination, have been a mainstay of real-time graphics for decades. Bevy currently has no support for them, so this pull request implements them. ## Solution The new `Lightmap` component can be attached to any entity that contains a `Handle<Mesh>` and a `StandardMaterial`. When present, it will be applied in the PBR shader. Because multiple lightmaps are frequently packed into atlases, each lightmap may have its own UV boundaries within its texture. An `exposure` field is also provided, to control the brightness of the lightmap. Note that this PR doesn't provide any way to bake the lightmaps. That can be done with [The Lightmapper] or another solution, such as Unity's Bakery. --- ## Changelog ### Added * A new component, `Lightmap`, is available, for baked global illumination. If your mesh has a second UV channel (UV1), and you attach this component to the entity with that mesh, Bevy will apply the texture referenced in the lightmap.

Do not load prepass normals for transmissive materials (#11140)
Turns out whenever a normal prepass was active (which includes whenever you use SSAO) we were attempting to read the normals from the prepass for the specular transmissive material. Since transmissive materials don't participate in the prepass (unlike opaque materials) we were reading the normals from “behind” the mesh, producing really weird visual results. # Objective - Fixes #11112. ## Solution - We introduce a new `READS_VIEW_TRANSMISSION_TEXTURE` mesh pipeline key; - We set it whenever the material properties has the `reads_view_transmission_texture` flag set; (i.e. the material is transmissive) - If this key is set we prevent the reading of normals from the prepass, by not setting the `LOAD_PREPASS_NORMALS` shader def. --- ## Changelog ### Fixed - Specular transmissive materials no longer attempt to erroneously load prepass normals, and now work correctly even with the normal prepass active (e.g. when using SSAO) |

# Objective - Materials should be a more frequent rebind then meshes (due to being able to use a single vertex buffer, such as in #10164) and therefore should be in a higher bind group. --- ## Changelog - For 2d and 3d mesh/material setups (but not UI materials, or other rendering setups such as gizmos, sprites, or text), mesh data is now in bind group 1, and material data is now in bind group 2, which is swapped from how they were before. ## Migration Guide - Custom 2d and 3d mesh/material shaders should now use bind group 2 `@group(2) @binding(x)` for their bound resources, instead of bind group 1. - Many internal pieces of rendering code have changed so that mesh data is now in bind group 1, and material data is now in bind group 2. Semi-custom rendering setups (that don't use the Material or Material2d APIs) should adapt to these changes. |

- Leaves;
- Porcelain.
Unlike existing support for transparency, light transmission does not
rely on fixed function alpha blending, and therefore works with both
`AlphaMode::Opaque` and `AlphaMode::Mask` materials.
## Solution
- Introduces a number of transmission related fields in the
`StandardMaterial`;
- For specular transmission:
- Adds logic to take a view main texture snapshot after the opaque
phase; (in order to perform screen space refractions)
- Introduces a new `Transmissive3d` phase to the renderer, to which all
meshes with `transmission > 0.0` materials are sent.
- Calculates a light exit point (of the approximate mesh volume) using
`ior` and `thickness` properties
- Samples the snapshot texture with an adaptive number of taps across a
`roughness`-controlled radius enabling “blurry” refractions
- For diffuse transmission:
- Approximates transmitted diffuse light by using a second, flipped +
displaced, diffuse-only Lambertian lobe for each light source.
## To Do
- [x] Figure out where `fresnel_mix()` is taking place, if at all, and
where `dielectric_specular` is being calculated, if at all, and update
them to use the `ior` value (Not a blocker, just a nice-to-have for more
correct BSDF)
- To the _best of my knowledge, this is now taking place, after

Image Sampler Improvements (#10254)
# Objective - Build on the changes in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/9982 - Use `ImageSamplerDescriptor` as the "public image sampler descriptor" interface in all places (for consistency) - Make it possible to configure textures to use the "default" sampler (as configured in the `DefaultImageSampler` resource) - Fix a bug introduced in #9982 that prevents configured samplers from being used in Basis, KTX2, and DDS textures --- ## Migration Guide - When using the `Image` API, use `ImageSamplerDescriptor` instead of `wgpu::SamplerDescriptor` - If writing custom wgpu renderer features that work with `Image`, call `&image_sampler.as_wgpu()` to convert to a wgpu descriptor. |

Use wildcard imports in bevy_pbr (#9847)
# Objective - the style of import used by bevy guarantees merge conflicts when any file change - This is especially true when import lists are large, such as in `bevy_pbr` - Merge conflicts are tricky to resolve. This bogs down rendering PRs and makes contributing to bevy's rendering system more difficult than it needs to ## Solution - Use wildcard imports to replace multiline import list in `bevy_pbr` I suspect this is controversial, but I'd like to hear alternatives. Because this is one of many papercuts that makes developing render features near impossible. |

Variable MeshPipeline View Bind Group Layout (#10156)
# Objective This PR aims to make it so that we don't accidentally go over `MAX_TEXTURE_IMAGE_UNITS` (in WebGL) or `maxSampledTexturesPerShaderStage` (in WebGPU), giving us some extra leeway to add more view bind group textures. (This PR is extracted from—and unblocks—#8015) ## Solution - We replace the existing `view_layout` and `view_layout_multisampled` pair with an array of 32 bind group layouts, generated ahead of time; - For now, these layouts cover all the possible combinations of: `multisampled`, `depth_prepass`, `normal_prepass`, `motion_vector_prepass` and `deferred_prepass`: - In the future, as @JMS55 pointed out, we can likely take out `motion_vector_prepass` and `deferred_prepass`, as these are not really needed for the mesh pipeline and can use separate pipelines. This would bring the possible combinations down to 8; - We can also add more "optional" textures as they become needed, allowing the engine to scale to a wider variety of use cases in lower end/web environments (e.g. some apps might just want normal and depth prepasses, others might only want light probes), while still keeping a high ceiling for high end native environments where more textures are supported. - While preallocating bind group layouts is relatively cheap, the number of combinations grows exponentially, so we should likely limit ourselves to something like at most 256–1024 total layouts until we find a better solution (like generating them lazily) - To make this mechanism a little bit more explicit/discoverable, so that compatibility with WebGPU/WebGL is not broken by accident, we add a `MESH_PIPELINE_VIEW_LAYOUT_SAFE_MAX_TEXTURES` const and warn whenever the number of textures in the layout crosses it. - The warning is gated by `#[cfg(debug_assertions)]` and not issued in release builds; - We're counting the actual textures in the bind group layout instead of using some roundabout metric so it should be accurate; - Right now `MESH_PIPELINE_VIEW_LAYOUT_SAFE_MAX_TEXTURES` is set to 10 in order to leave 6 textures free for other groups; - Currently there's no combination that would cause us to go over the limit, but that will change once #8015 lands. --- ## Changelog - `MeshPipeline` view bind group layouts now vary based on the current multisampling and prepass states, saving a couple of texture binding entries when prepasses are not in use. ## Migration Guide - `MeshPipeline::view_layout` and `MeshPipeline::view_layout_multisampled` have been replaced with a private array to accomodate for variable view bind group layouts. To obtain a view bind group layout for the current pipeline state, use the new `MeshPipeline::get_view_layout()` or `MeshPipeline::get_view_layout_from_key()` methods. |

*_PREPASS Shader Def Cleanup (#10136)
# Objective - This PR aims to make the various `*_PREPASS` shader defs we have (`NORMAL_PREPASS`, `DEPTH_PREPASS`, `MOTION_VECTORS_PREPASS` AND `DEFERRED_PREPASS`) easier to use and understand: - So that their meaning is now consistent across all contexts; (“prepass X is enabled for the current view”) - So that they're also consistently set across all contexts. - It also aims to enable us to (with a follow up PR) to conditionally gate the `BindGroupEntry` and `BindGroupLayoutEntry` items associated with these prepasses, saving us up to 4 texture slots in WebGL (currently globally limited to 16 per shader, regardless of bind groups) ## Solution - We now consistently set these from `PrepassPipeline`, the `MeshPipeline` and the `DeferredLightingPipeline`, we also set their `MeshPipelineKey`s; - We introduce `PREPASS_PIPELINE`, `MESH_PIPELINE` and `DEFERRED_LIGHTING_PIPELINE` that can be used to detect where the code is running, without overloading the meanings of the prepass shader defs; - We also gate the WGSL functions in `bevy_pbr::prepass_utils` with `#ifdef`s for their respective shader defs, so that shader code can provide a fallback whenever they're not available. - This allows us to conditionally include the bindings for these prepass textures (My next PR, which will hopefully unblock #8015) - @robtfm mentioned [these were being used to prevent accessing the same binding as read/write in the prepass](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/743663924229963868/1163270458393759814), however even after reversing the `#ifndef`s I had no issues running the code, so perhaps the compiler is already smart enough even without tree shaking to know they're not being used, thanks to `#ifdef PREPASS_PIPELINE`? ## Comparison ### Before | Shader Def | `PrepassPipeline` | `MeshPipeline` | `DeferredLightingPipeline` | | ------------------------ | ----------------- | -------------- | -------------------------- | | `NORMAL_PREPASS` | Yes | No | No | | `DEPTH_PREPASS` | Yes | No | No | | `MOTION_VECTORS_PREPASS` | Yes | No | No | | `DEFERRED_PREPASS` | Yes | No | No | | View Key | `PrepassPipeline` | `MeshPipeline` | `DeferredLightingPipeline` | | ------------------------ | ----------------- | -------------- | -------------------------- | | `NORMAL_PREPASS` | Yes | Yes | No | | `DEPTH_PREPASS` | Yes | No | No | | `MOTION_VECTORS_PREPASS` | Yes | No | No | | `DEFERRED_PREPASS` | Yes | Yes\* | No | \* Accidentally was being set twice, once with only `deferred_prepass.is_some()` as a condition, and once with `deferred_p repass.is_some() && !forward` as a condition. ### After | Shader Def | `PrepassPipeline` | `MeshPipeline` | `DeferredLightingPipeline` | | ---------------------------- | ----------------- | --------------- | -------------------------- | | `NORMAL_PREPASS` | Yes | Yes | Yes | | `DEPTH_PREPASS` | Yes | Yes | Yes | | `MOTION_VECTORS_PREPASS` | Yes | Yes | Yes | | `DEFERRED_PREPASS` | Yes | Yes | Unconditionally | | `PREPASS_PIPELINE` | Unconditionally | No | No | | `MESH_PIPELINE` | No | Unconditionally | No | | `DEFERRED_LIGHTING_PIPELINE` | No | No | Unconditionally | | View Key | `PrepassPipeline` | `MeshPipeline` | `DeferredLightingPipeline` | | ------------------------ | ----------------- | -------------- | -------------------------- | | `NORMAL_PREPASS` | Yes | Yes | Yes | | `DEPTH_PREPASS` | Yes | Yes | Yes | | `MOTION_VECTORS_PREPASS` | Yes | Yes | Yes | | `DEFERRED_PREPASS` | Yes | Yes | Unconditionally | --- ## Changelog - Cleaned up WGSL `*_PREPASS` shader defs so they're now consistently used everywhere; - Introduced `PREPASS_PIPELINE`, `MESH_PIPELINE` and `DEFERRED_LIGHTING_PIPELINE` WGSL shader defs for conditionally compiling logic based the current pipeline; - WGSL functions from `bevy_pbr::prepass_utils` are now guarded with `#ifdef` based on the currently enabled prepasses; ## Migration Guide - When using functions from `bevy_pbr::prepass_utils` (`prepass_depth()`, `prepass_normal()`, `prepass_motion_vector()`) in contexts where these prepasses might be disabled, you should now wrap your calls with the appropriate `#ifdef` guards, (`#ifdef DEPTH_PREPASS`, `#ifdef NORMAL_PREPASS`, `#ifdef MOTION_VECTOR_PREPASS`) providing fallback logic where applicable. --------- Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: IceSentry <IceSentry@users.noreply.github.com> |

pbr shader cleanup (#10105)
# Objective cleanup some pbr shader code. improve shader stage io consistency and make pbr.wgsl (probably many people's first foray into bevy shader code) a little more human-readable. also fix a couple of small issues with deferred rendering. ## Solution mesh_vertex_output: - rename to forward_io (to align with prepass_io) - rename `MeshVertexOutput` to `VertexOutput` (to align with prepass_io) - move `Vertex` from mesh.wgsl into here (to align with prepass_io) prepass_io: - remove `FragmentInput`, use `VertexOutput` directly (to align with forward_io) - rename `VertexOutput::clip_position` to `position` (to align with forward_io) pbr.wgsl: - restructure so we don't need `#ifdefs` on the actual entrypoint, use VertexOutput and FragmentOutput in all cases and use #ifdefs to import the right struct definitions. - rearrange to make the flow clearer - move alpha_discard up from `pbr_functions::pbr` to avoid needing to call it on some branches and not others - add a bunch of comments deferred_lighting: - move ssao into the `!unlit` block to reflect forward behaviour correctly - fix compile error with deferred + premultiply_alpha ## Migration Guide in custom material shaders: - `pbr_functions::pbr` no longer calls to `pbr_functions::alpha_discard`. if you were using the `pbr` function in a custom shader with alpha mask mode you now also need to call alpha_discard manually - rename imports of `bevy_pbr::mesh_vertex_output` to `bevy_pbr::forward_io` - rename instances of `MeshVertexOutput` to `VertexOutput` in custom material prepass shaders: - rename instances of `VertexOutput::clip_position` to `VertexOutput::position` |

Deferred Renderer (#9258)
# Objective - Add a [Deferred Renderer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deferred_shading) to Bevy. - This allows subsequent passes to access per pixel material information before/during shading. - Accessing this per pixel material information is needed for some features, like GI. It also makes other features (ex. Decals) simpler to implement and/or improves their capability. There are multiple approaches to accomplishing this. The deferred shading approach works well given the limitations of WebGPU and WebGL2. Motivation: [I'm working on a GI solution for Bevy](https://youtu.be/eH1AkL-mwhI) # Solution - The deferred renderer is implemented with a prepass and a deferred lighting pass. - The prepass renders opaque objects into the Gbuffer attachment (`Rgba32Uint`). The PBR shader generates a `PbrInput` in mostly the same way as the forward implementation and then [packs it into the Gbuffer]( |

PCF For DirectionalLight/SpotLight Shadows (#8006)
# Objective - Improve antialiasing for non-point light shadow edges. - Very partially addresses https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/3628. ## Solution - Implements "The Witness"'s shadow map sampling technique. - Ported from @superdump's old branch, all credit to them :) - Implements "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare"'s stochastic shadow map sampling technique when the velocity prepass is enabled, for use with TAA. - Uses interleaved gradient noise to generate a random angle, and then averages 8 samples in a spiral pattern, rotated by the random angle. - I also tried spatiotemporal blue noise, but it was far too noisy to be filtered by TAA alone. In the future, we should try spatiotemporal blue noise + a specialized shadow denoiser such as https://gpuopen.com/fidelityfx-denoiser/#shadow. This approach would also be useful for hybrid rasterized applications with raytraced shadows. - The COD presentation has an interesting temporal dithering of the noise for use with temporal supersampling that we should revisit when we get DLSS/FSR/other TSR. --- ## Changelog * Added `ShadowFilteringMethod`. Improved directional light and spotlight shadow edges to be less aliased. ## Migration Guide * Shadows cast by directional lights or spotlights now have smoother edges. To revert to the old behavior, add `ShadowFilteringMethod::Hardware2x2` to your cameras. --------- Co-authored-by: IceSentry <c.giguere42@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Daniel Chia <danstryder@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: robtfm <50659922+robtfm@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Brandon Dyer <brandondyer64@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Edgar Geier <geieredgar@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Robert Swain <robert.swain@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Elabajaba <Elabajaba@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: IceSentry <IceSentry@users.noreply.github.com> |

Import the second UV map if present in glTF files. (#9992)
Conventionally, the second UV map (`TEXCOORD1`, `UV1`) is used for lightmap UVs. This commit allows Bevy to import them, so that a custom shader that applies lightmaps can use those UVs if desired. Note that this doesn't actually apply lightmaps to Bevy meshes; that will be a followup. It does, however, open the door to future Bevy plugins that implement baked global illumination. ## Changelog ### Added The Bevy glTF loader now imports a second UV channel (`TEXCOORD1`, `UV1`) from meshes if present. This can be used by custom shaders to implement lightmapping. |

Parallelize extract_meshes (#9966)
# Objective `extract_meshes` can easily be one of the most expensive operations in the blocking extract schedule for 3D apps. It also has no fundamentally serialized parts and can easily be run across multiple threads. Let's speed it up by parallelizing it! ## Solution Use the `ThreadLocal<Cell<Vec<T>>>` approach utilized by #7348 in conjunction with `Query::par_iter` to build a set of thread-local queues, and collect them after going wide. ## Performance Using `cargo run --profile stress-test --features trace_tracy --example many_cubes`. Yellow is this PR. Red is main. `extract_meshes`:  An average reduction from 1.2ms to 770us is seen, a 41.6% improvement. Note: this is still not including #9950's changes, so this may actually result in even faster speedups once that's merged in. |

Use EntityHashMap<Entity, T> for render world entity storage for better performance (#9903)
# Objective - Improve rendering performance, particularly by avoiding the large system commands costs of using the ECS in the way that the render world does. ## Solution - Define `EntityHasher` that calculates a hash from the `Entity.to_bits()` by `i | (i.wrapping_mul(0x517cc1b727220a95) << 32)`. `0x517cc1b727220a95` is something like `u64::MAX / N` for N that gives a value close to π and that works well for hashing. Thanks for @SkiFire13 for the suggestion and to @nicopap for alternative suggestions and discussion. This approach comes from `rustc-hash` (a.k.a. `FxHasher`) with some tweaks for the case of hashing an `Entity`. `FxHasher` and `SeaHasher` were also tested but were significantly slower. - Define `EntityHashMap` type that uses the `EntityHashser` - Use `EntityHashMap<Entity, T>` for render world entity storage, including: - `RenderMaterialInstances` - contains the `AssetId<M>` of the material associated with the entity. Also for 2D. - `RenderMeshInstances` - contains mesh transforms, flags and properties about mesh entities. Also for 2D. - `SkinIndices` and `MorphIndices` - contains the skin and morph index for an entity, respectively - `ExtractedSprites` - `ExtractedUiNodes` ## Benchmarks All benchmarks have been conducted on an M1 Max connected to AC power. The tests are run for 1500 frames. The 1000th frame is captured for comparison to check for visual regressions. There were none. ### 2D Meshes `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode mesh2d` #### `--ordered-z` This test spawns the 2D meshes with z incrementing back to front, which is the ideal arrangement allocation order as it matches the sorted render order which means lookups have a high cache hit rate. <img width="1112" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-27 at 07 50 45" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/e140bc98-7091-4a3b-8ae1-ab75d16d2ccb"> -39.1% median frame time. #### Random This test spawns the 2D meshes with random z. This not only makes the batching and transparent 2D pass lookups get a lot of cache misses, it also currently means that the meshes are almost certain to not be batchable. <img width="1108" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-27 at 07 51 28" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/29c2e813-645a-43ce-982a-55df4bf7d8c4"> -7.2% median frame time. ### 3D Meshes `many_cubes --benchmark` <img width="1112" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-27 at 07 51 57" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/1a729673-3254-4e2a-9072-55e27c69f0fc"> -7.7% median frame time. ### Sprites **NOTE: On `main` sprites are using `SparseSet<Entity, T>`!** `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode sprite` #### `--ordered-z` This test spawns the sprites with z incrementing back to front, which is the ideal arrangement allocation order as it matches the sorted render order which means lookups have a high cache hit rate. <img width="1116" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-27 at 07 52 31" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/bc8eab90-e375-4d31-b5cd-f55f6f59ab67"> +13.0% median frame time. #### Random This test spawns the sprites with random z.

However, `PassHashMap<Entity, T>` has better worst case performance when data is randomly distributed, rather than in sorted render order, and does not have the worst case memory usage that `SparseSet`'s dense `Vec<usize>` that maps from the `Entity` index to sparse index into `Vec<T>`. This dense `Vec` has to be as large as the largest Entity index used with the `SparseSet`. - I also tested `PassHashMap<u32, T>`, intending to use `Entity.index()` as the key, but this proved to sometimes be slower and mostly no different. - The only outstanding approach that has not been implemented and tested is to _not_ clear the render world of its entities each frame. That has its own problems, though they could perhaps be solved. - Performance-wise, if the entities and their component data were not cleared, then they would incur table moves on spawn, and should not thereafter, rather just their component data would be overwritten. Ideally we would have a neat way of either updating data in-place via `&mut T` queries, or inserting components if not present. This would likely be quite cumbersome to have to remember to do everywhere, but perhaps it only needs to be done in the more performance-sensitive systems. - The main problem to solve however is that we want to both maintain a mapping between main world entities and render world entities, be able to run the render app and world in parallel with the main app and world for pipelined rendering, and at the same time be able to spawn entities in the render world in such a way that those Entity ids do not collide with those spawned in the main world. This is potentially quite solvable, but could well be a lot of ECS work to do it in a way that makes sense. --- ## Changelog - Changed: Component data for entities to be drawn are no longer stored on entities in the render world. Instead, data is stored in a `EntityHashMap<Entity, T>` in various resources. This brings significant performance benefits due to the way the render app clears entities every frame. Resources of most interest are `RenderMeshInstances` and `RenderMaterialInstances`, and their 2D counterparts. ## Migration Guide Previously the render app extracted mesh entities and their component data from the main world and stored them as entities and components in the render world. Now they are extracted into essentially `EntityHashMap<Entity, T>` where `T` are structs containing an appropriate group of data. This means that while extract set systems will continue to run extract queries against the main world they will store their data in hash maps. Also, systems in later sets will either need to look up entities in the available resources such as `RenderMeshInstances`, or maintain their own `EntityHashMap<Entity, T>` for their own data. Before: ```rust fn queue_custom( material_meshes: Query<(Entity, &MeshTransforms, &Handle<Mesh>), With<InstanceMaterialData>>, ) { ... for (entity, mesh_transforms, mesh_handle) in &material_meshes { ... } } ``` After: ```rust fn queue_custom( render_mesh_instances: Res<RenderMeshInstances>, instance_entities: Query<Entity, With<InstanceMaterialData>>, ) { ... for entity in &instance_entities { let Some(mesh_instance) = render_mesh_instances.get(&entity) else { continue; }; // The mesh handle in `AssetId<Mesh>` form, and the `MeshTransforms` can now // be found in `mesh_instance` which is a `RenderMeshInstance` ... } } ``` --------- Co-authored-by: robtfm <50659922+robtfm@users.noreply.github.com> |

Automatic batching/instancing of draw commands (#9685)
# Objective - Implement the foundations of automatic batching/instancing of draw commands as the next step from #89 - NOTE: More performance improvements will come when more data is managed and bound in ways that do not require rebinding such as mesh, material, and texture data. ## Solution - The core idea for batching of draw commands is to check whether any of the information that has to be passed when encoding a draw command changes between two things that are being drawn according to the sorted render phase order. These should be things like the pipeline, bind groups and their dynamic offsets, index/vertex buffers, and so on. - The following assumptions have been made: - Only entities with prepared assets (pipelines, materials, meshes) are queued to phases - View bindings are constant across a phase for a given draw function as phases are per-view - `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` is the only system that performs this batching and has sole responsibility for preparing the per-object data. As such the mesh binding and dynamic offsets are assumed to only vary as a result of the `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` system, e.g. due to having to split data across separate uniform bindings within the same buffer due to the maximum uniform buffer binding size. - Implement `GpuArrayBuffer` for `Mesh2dUniform` to store Mesh2dUniform in arrays in GPU buffers rather than each one being at a dynamic offset in a uniform buffer. This is the same optimisation that was made for 3D not long ago. - Change batch size for a range in `PhaseItem`, adding API for getting or mutating the range. This is more flexible than a size as the length of the range can be used in place of the size, but the start and end can be otherwise whatever is needed. - Add an optional mesh bind group dynamic offset to `PhaseItem`. This avoids having to do a massive table move just to insert `GpuArrayBufferIndex` components. ## Benchmarks All tests have been run on an M1 Max on AC power. `bevymark` and `many_cubes` were modified to use 1920x1080 with a scale factor of 1. I run a script that runs a separate Tracy capture process, and then runs the bevy example with `--features bevy_ci_testing,trace_tracy` and `CI_TESTING_CONFIG=../benchmark.ron` with the contents of `../benchmark.ron`: ```rust ( exit_after: Some(1500) ) ``` ...in order to run each test for 1500 frames. The recent changes to `many_cubes` and `bevymark` added reproducible random number generation so that with the same settings, the same rng will occur. They also added benchmark modes that use a fixed delta time for animations. Combined this means that the same frames should be rendered both on main and on the branch. The graphs compare main (yellow) to this PR (red). ### 3D Mesh `many_cubes --benchmark` <img width="1411" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-03 at 23 42 10" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/2088716a-c918-486c-8129-090b26fd2bc4"> The mesh and material are the same for all instances. This is basically the best case for the initial batching implementation as it results in 1 draw for the ~11.7k visible meshes. It gives a ~30% reduction in median frame time.

The materials are randomly selected, and there is no sorting by material bind group for opaque 3D so any batching is 'random'. The PR produces a ~5% reduction in median frame time. If we were to sort the opaque phase by the material bind group, then this should be a lot faster. This produces about 10.5k draws for the 11.7k visible entities. This makes sense as randomly selecting from 10 materials gives a chance that two adjacent entities randomly select the same material and can be batched. The 1000th frame is identical in flip:  ``` Mean: 0.000000 Weighted median: 0.000000 1st weighted quartile: 0.000000 3rd weighted quartile: 0.000000 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.000000 Evaluation time: 0.4537 seconds ``` ### 3D Mesh `many_cubes --benchmark --vary-per-instance` <img width="1394" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-03 at 23 48 44" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/f02a816b-a444-4c18-a96a-63b5436f3b7f"> This run varies the material data per instance by randomly-generating its colour. This is the worst case for batching and that it performs about the same as `main` is a good thing as it demonstrates that the batching has minimal overhead when dealing with ~11k visible mesh entities. The 1000th frame is identical according to flip:  ``` Mean: 0.000000 Weighted median: 0.000000 1st weighted quartile: 0.000000 3rd weighted quartile: 0.000000 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.000000 Evaluation time: 0.4568 seconds ``` ### 2D Mesh `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode mesh2d` <img width="1412" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-03 at 23 59 56" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/cb02ae07-237b-4646-ae9f-fda4dafcbad4"> This spawns 160 waves of 1000 quad meshes that are shaded with ColorMaterial. Each wave has a different material so 160 waves currently should result in 160 batches. This results in a 50% reduction in median frame time. Capturing a screenshot of the 1000th frame main vs PR gives:  ``` Mean: 0.001222 Weighted median: 0.750432 1st weighted quartile: 0.453494 3rd weighted quartile: 0.969758 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.990296 Evaluation time: 0.4255 seconds ``` So they seem to produce the same results.

The median frame time is reduced by 50%. Similar to the plain run above, this produces 160 draws on the PR and 160000 on `main` and the 1000th frame is identical (ignoring the fps counter text overlay).  ``` Mean: 0.002877 Weighted median: 0.964980 1st weighted quartile: 0.668871 3rd weighted quartile: 0.982749 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.992377 Evaluation time: 0.4301 seconds ``` ### 2D Mesh `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode mesh2d --vary-per-instance` <img width="1396" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-04 at 00 13 53" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/b2198b18-3439-47ad-919a-cdabe190facb"> This creates unique materials per instance by randomly-generating the material's colour.

Bevy Asset V2 (#8624)
# Bevy Asset V2 Proposal ## Why Does Bevy Need A New Asset System? Asset pipelines are a central part of the gamedev process. Bevy's current asset system is missing a number of features that make it non-viable for many classes of gamedev. After plenty of discussions and [a long community feedback period](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/3972), we've identified a number missing features: * **Asset Preprocessing**: it should be possible to "preprocess" / "compile" / "crunch" assets at "development time" rather than when the game starts up. This enables offloading expensive work from deployed apps, faster asset loading, less runtime memory usage, etc. * **Per-Asset Loader Settings**: Individual assets cannot define their own loaders that override the defaults. Additionally, they cannot provide per-asset settings to their loaders. This is a huge limitation, as many asset types don't provide all information necessary for Bevy _inside_ the asset. For example, a raw PNG image says nothing about how it should be sampled (ex: linear vs nearest). * **Asset `.meta` files**: assets should have configuration files stored adjacent to the asset in question, which allows the user to configure asset-type-specific settings. These settings should be accessible during the pre-processing phase. Modifying a `.meta` file should trigger a re-processing / re-load of the asset. It should be possible to configure asset loaders from the meta file. * **Processed Asset Hot Reloading**: Changes to processed assets (or their dependencies) should result in re-processing them and re-loading the results in live Bevy Apps. * **Asset Dependency Tracking**: The current bevy_asset has no good way to wait for asset dependencies to load. It punts this as an exercise for consumers of the loader apis, which is unreasonable and error prone. There should be easy, ergonomic ways to wait for assets to load and block some logic on an asset's entire dependency tree loading. * **Runtime Asset Loading**: it should be (optionally) possible to load arbitrary assets dynamically at runtime. This necessitates being able to deploy and run the asset server alongside Bevy Apps on _all platforms_. For example, we should be able to invoke the shader compiler at runtime, stream scenes from sources like the internet, etc. To keep deployed binaries (and startup times) small, the runtime asset server configuration should be configurable with different settings compared to the "pre processor asset server". * **Multiple Backends**: It should be possible to load assets from arbitrary sources (filesystems, the internet, remote asset serves, etc). * **Asset Packing**: It should be possible to deploy assets in compressed "packs", which makes it easier and more efficient to distribute assets with Bevy Apps. * **Asset Handoff**: It should be possible to hold a "live" asset handle, which correlates to runtime data, without actually holding the asset in memory. Ex: it must be possible to hold a reference to a GPU mesh generated from a "mesh asset" without keeping the mesh data in CPU memory * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: Different platforms and app distributions have different capabilities and requirements. Some platforms need lower asset resolutions or different asset formats to operate within the hardware constraints of the platform. It should be possible to define per-platform asset processing profiles. And it should be possible to deploy only the assets required for a given platform. These features have architectural implications that are significant enough to require a full rewrite. The current Bevy Asset implementation got us this far, but it can take us no farther. This PR defines a brand new asset system that implements most of these features, while laying the foundations for the remaining features to be built. ## Bevy Asset V2 Here is a quick overview of the features introduced in this PR. * **Asset Preprocessing**: Preprocess assets at development time into more efficient (and configurable) representations * **Dependency Aware**: Dependencies required to process an asset are tracked. If an asset's processed dependency changes, it will be reprocessed * **Hot Reprocessing/Reloading**: detect changes to asset source files, reprocess them if they have changed, and then hot-reload them in Bevy Apps. * **Only Process Changes**: Assets are only re-processed when their source file (or meta file) has changed. This uses hashing and timestamps to avoid processing assets that haven't changed. * **Transactional and Reliable**: Uses write-ahead logging (a technique commonly used by databases) to recover from crashes / forced-exits. Whenever possible it avoids full-reprocessing / only uncompleted transactions will be reprocessed. When the processor is running in parallel with a Bevy App, processor asset writes block Bevy App asset reads. Reading metadata + asset bytes is guaranteed to be transactional / correctly paired. * **Portable / Run anywhere / Database-free**: The processor does not rely on an in-memory database (although it uses some database techniques for reliability). This is important because pretty much all in-memory databases have unsupported platforms or build complications. * **Configure Processor Defaults Per File Type**: You can say "use this processor for all files of this type". * **Custom Processors**: The `Processor` trait is flexible and unopinionated. It can be implemented by downstream plugins. * **LoadAndSave Processors**: Most asset processing scenarios can be expressed as "run AssetLoader A, save the results using AssetSaver X, and then load the result using AssetLoader B". For example, load this png image using `PngImageLoader`, which produces an `Image` asset and then save it using `CompressedImageSaver` (which also produces an `Image` asset, but in a compressed format), which takes an `Image` asset as input. This means if you have an `AssetLoader` for an asset, you are already half way there! It also means that you can share AssetSavers across multiple loaders. Because `CompressedImageSaver` accepts Bevy's generic Image asset as input, it means you can also use it with some future `JpegImageLoader`. * **Loader and Saver Settings**: Asset Loaders and Savers can now define their own settings types, which are passed in as input when an asset is loaded / saved. Each asset can define its own settings. * **Asset `.meta` files**: configure asset loaders, their settings, enable/disable processing, and configure processor settings * **Runtime Asset Dependency Tracking** Runtime asset dependencies (ex: if an asset contains a `Handle<Image>`) are tracked by the asset server. An event is emitted when an asset and all of its dependencies have been loaded * **Unprocessed Asset Loading**: Assets do not require preprocessing. They can be loaded directly. A processed asset is just a "normal" asset with some extra metadata. Asset Loaders don't need to know or care about whether or not an asset was processed. * **Async Asset IO**: Asset readers/writers use async non-blocking interfaces. Note that because Rust doesn't yet support async traits, there is a bit of manual Boxing / Future boilerplate. This will hopefully be removed in the near future when Rust gets async traits. * **Pluggable Asset Readers and Writers**: Arbitrary asset source readers/writers are supported, both by the processor and the asset server. * **Better Asset Handles** * **Single Arc Tree**: Asset Handles now use a single arc tree that represents the lifetime of the asset. This makes their implementation simpler, more efficient, and allows us to cheaply attach metadata to handles. Ex: the AssetPath of a handle is now directly accessible on the handle itself! * **Const Typed Handles**: typed handles can be constructed in a const context. No more weird "const untyped converted to typed at runtime" patterns! * **Handles and Ids are Smaller / Faster To Hash / Compare**: Typed `Handle<T>` is now much smaller in memory and `AssetId<T>` is even smaller. * **Weak Handle Usage Reduction**: In general Handles are now considered to be "strong". Bevy features that previously used "weak `Handle<T>`" have been ported to `AssetId<T>`, which makes it statically clear that the features do not hold strong handles (while retaining strong type information). Currently Handle::Weak still exists, but it is very possible that we can remove that entirely. * **Efficient / Dense Asset Ids**: Assets now have efficient dense runtime asset ids, which means we can avoid expensive hash lookups. Assets are stored in Vecs instead of HashMaps. There are now typed and untyped ids, which means we no longer need to store dynamic type information in the ID for typed handles. "AssetPathId" (which was a nightmare from a performance and correctness standpoint) has been entirely removed in favor of dense ids (which are retrieved for a path on load) * **Direct Asset Loading, with Dependency Tracking**: Assets that are defined at runtime can still have their dependencies tracked by the Asset Server (ex: if you create a material at runtime, you can still wait for its textures to load). This is accomplished via the (currently optional) "asset dependency visitor" trait. This system can also be used to define a set of assets to load, then wait for those assets to load. * **Async folder loading**: Folder loading also uses this system and immediately returns a handle to the LoadedFolder asset, which means folder loading no longer blocks on directory traversals. * **Improved Loader Interface**: Loaders now have a specific "top level asset type", which makes returning the top-level asset simpler and statically typed. * **Basic Image Settings and Processing**: Image assets can now be processed into the gpu-friendly Basic Universal format. The ImageLoader now has a setting to define what format the image should be loaded as. Note that this is just a minimal MVP ... plenty of additional work to do here. To demo this, enable the `basis-universal` feature and turn on asset processing. * **Simpler Audio Play / AudioSink API**: Asset handle providers are cloneable, which means the Audio resource can mint its own handles. This means you can now do `let sink_handle = audio.play(music)` instead of `let sink_handle = audio_sinks.get_handle(audio.play(music))`. Note that this might still be replaced by https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8424. **Removed Handle Casting From Engine Features**: Ex: FontAtlases no longer use casting between handle types ## Using The New Asset System ### Normal Unprocessed Asset Loading By default the `AssetPlugin` does not use processing. It behaves pretty much the same way as the old system. If you are defining a custom asset, first derive `Asset`: ```rust #[derive(Asset)] struct Thing { value: String, } ``` Initialize the asset: ```rust app.init_asset:<Thing>() ``` Implement a new `AssetLoader` for it: ```rust #[derive(Default)] struct ThingLoader; #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)] pub struct ThingSettings { some_setting: bool, } impl AssetLoader for ThingLoader { type Asset = Thing; type Settings = ThingSettings; fn load<'a>( &'a self, reader: &'a mut Reader, settings: &'a ThingSettings, load_context: &'a mut LoadContext, ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Thing, anyhow::Error>> { Box::pin(async move { let mut bytes = Vec::new(); reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes).await?; // convert bytes to value somehow Ok(Thing { value }) }) } fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] { &["thing"] } } ``` Note that this interface will get much cleaner once Rust gets support for async traits. `Reader` is an async futures_io::AsyncRead. You can stream bytes as they come in or read them all into a `Vec<u8>`, depending on the context. You can use `let handle = load_context.load(path)` to kick off a dependency load, retrieve a handle, and register the dependency for the asset. Then just register the loader in your Bevy app: ```rust app.init_asset_loader::<ThingLoader>() ``` Now just add your `Thing` asset files into the `assets` folder and load them like this: ```rust fn system(asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) { let handle = Handle<Thing> = asset_server.load("cool.thing"); } ``` You can check load states directly via the asset server: ```rust if asset_server.load_state(&handle) == LoadState::Loaded { } ``` You can also listen for events: ```rust fn system(mut events: EventReader<AssetEvent<Thing>>, handle: Res<SomeThingHandle>) { for event in events.iter() { if event.is_loaded_with_dependencies(&handle) { } } } ``` Note the new `AssetEvent::LoadedWithDependencies`, which only fires when the asset is loaded _and_ all dependencies (and their dependencies) have loaded. Unlike the old asset system, for a given asset path all `Handle<T>` values point to the same underlying Arc. This means Handles can cheaply hold more asset information, such as the AssetPath: ```rust // prints the AssetPath of the handle info!("{:?}", handle.path()) ``` ### Processed Assets Asset processing can be enabled via the `AssetPlugin`. When developing Bevy Apps with processed assets, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev())) ``` This runs the `AssetProcessor` in the background with hot-reloading. It reads assets from the `assets` folder, processes them, and writes them to the `.imported_assets` folder. Asset loads in the Bevy App will wait for a processed version of the asset to become available. If an asset in the `assets` folder changes, it will be reprocessed and hot-reloaded in the Bevy App. When deploying processed Bevy apps, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed())) ``` This does not run the `AssetProcessor` in the background. It behaves like `AssetPlugin::unprocessed()`, but reads assets from `.imported_assets`. When the `AssetProcessor` is running, it will populate sibling `.meta` files for assets in the `assets` folder. Meta files for assets that do not have a processor configured look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` This is metadata for an image asset. For example, if you have `assets/my_sprite.png`, this could be the metadata stored at `assets/my_sprite.png.meta`. Meta files are totally optional. If no metadata exists, the default settings will be used. In short, this file says "load this asset with the ImageLoader and use the file extension to determine the image type". This type of meta file is supported in all AssetPlugin modes. If in `Unprocessed` mode, the asset (with the meta settings) will be loaded directly. If in `ProcessedDev` mode, the asset file will be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder. The meta will also be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder, but with one addition: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 12415480888597742505, full_hash: 14344495437905856884, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` `processed_info` contains `hash` (a direct hash of the asset and meta bytes), `full_hash` (a hash of `hash` and the hashes of all `process_dependencies`), and `process_dependencies` (the `path` and `full_hash` of every process_dependency). A "process dependency" is an asset dependency that is _directly_ used when processing the asset. Images do not have process dependencies, so this is empty. When the processor is enabled, you can use the `Process` metadata config: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Process( processor: "bevy_asset::processor::process::LoadAndSave<bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader, bevy_render::texture::compressed_image_saver::CompressedImageSaver>", settings: ( loader_settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), saver_settings: ( generate_mipmaps: true, ), ), ), ) ``` This configures the asset to use the `LoadAndSave` processor, which runs an AssetLoader and feeds the result into an AssetSaver (which saves the given Asset and defines a loader to load it with). (for terseness LoadAndSave will likely get a shorter/friendlier type name when [Stable Type Paths](#7184) lands). `LoadAndSave` is likely to be the most common processor type, but arbitrary processors are supported. `CompressedImageSaver` saves an `Image` in the Basis Universal format and configures the ImageLoader to load it as basis universal. The `AssetProcessor` will read this meta, run it through the LoadAndSave processor, and write the basis-universal version of the image to `.imported_assets`. The final metadata will look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 905599590923828066, full_hash: 9948823010183819117, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: Format(Basis), ), ), ) ``` To try basis-universal processing out in Bevy examples, (for example `sprite.rs`), change `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)` to `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev()))` and run with the `basis-universal` feature enabled: `cargo run --features=basis-universal --example sprite`. To create a custom processor, there are two main paths: 1. Use the `LoadAndSave` processor with an existing `AssetLoader`. Implement the `AssetSaver` trait, register the processor using `asset_processor.register_processor::<LoadAndSave<ImageLoader, CompressedImageSaver>>(image_saver.into())`. 2. Implement the `Process` trait directly and register it using: `asset_processor.register_processor(thing_processor)`. You can configure default processors for file extensions like this: ```rust asset_processor.set_default_processor::<ThingProcessor>("thing") ``` There is one more metadata type to be aware of: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Ignore, ) ``` This will ignore the asset during processing / prevent it from being written to `.imported_assets`. The AssetProcessor stores a transaction log at `.imported_assets/log` and uses it to gracefully recover from unexpected stops. This means you can force-quit the processor (and Bevy Apps running the processor in parallel) at arbitrary times! `.imported_assets` is "local state". It should _not_ be checked into source control. It should also be considered "read only". In practice, you _can_ modify processed assets and processed metadata if you really need to test something. But those modifications will not be represented in the hashes of the assets, so the processed state will be "out of sync" with the source assets. The processor _will not_ fix this for you. Either revert the change after you have tested it, or delete the processed files so they can be re-populated. ## Open Questions There are a number of open questions to be discussed. We should decide if they need to be addressed in this PR and if so, how we will address them: ### Implied Dependencies vs Dependency Enumeration There are currently two ways to populate asset dependencies: * **Implied via AssetLoaders**: if an AssetLoader loads an asset (and retrieves a handle), a dependency is added to the list. * **Explicit via the optional Asset::visit_dependencies**: if `server.load_asset(my_asset)` is called, it will call `my_asset.visit_dependencies`, which will grab dependencies that have been manually defined for the asset via the Asset trait impl (which can be derived). This means that defining explicit dependencies is optional for "loaded assets". And the list of dependencies is always accurate because loaders can only produce Handles if they register dependencies. If an asset was loaded with an AssetLoader, it only uses the implied dependencies. If an asset was created at runtime and added with `asset_server.load_asset(MyAsset)`, it will use `Asset::visit_dependencies`. However this can create a behavior mismatch between loaded assets and equivalent "created at runtime" assets if `Assets::visit_dependencies` doesn't exactly match the dependencies produced by the AssetLoader. This behavior mismatch can be resolved by completely removing "implied loader dependencies" and requiring `Asset::visit_dependencies` to supply dependency data. But this creates two problems: * It makes defining loaded assets harder and more error prone: Devs must remember to manually annotate asset dependencies with `#[dependency]` when deriving `Asset`. For more complicated assets (such as scenes), the derive likely wouldn't be sufficient and a manual `visit_dependencies` impl would be required. * Removes the ability to immediately kick off dependency loads: When AssetLoaders retrieve a Handle, they also immediately kick off an asset load for the handle, which means it can start loading in parallel _before_ the asset finishes loading. For large assets, this could be significant. (although this could be mitigated for processed assets if we store dependencies in the processed meta file and load them ahead of time) ### Eager ProcessorDev Asset Loading I made a controversial call in the interest of fast startup times ("time to first pixel") for the "processor dev mode configuration". When initializing the AssetProcessor, current processed versions of unchanged assets are yielded immediately, even if their dependencies haven't been checked yet for reprocessing. This means that non-current-state-of-filesystem-but-previously-valid assets might be returned to the App first, then hot-reloaded if/when their dependencies change and the asset is reprocessed. Is this behavior desirable? There is largely one alternative: do not yield an asset from the processor to the app until all of its dependencies have been checked for changes. In some common cases (load dependency has not changed since last run) this will increase startup time. The main question is "by how much" and is that slower startup time worth it in the interest of only yielding assets that are true to the current state of the filesystem. Should this be configurable? I'm starting to think we should only yield an asset after its (historical) dependencies have been checked for changes + processed as necessary, but I'm curious what you all think. ### Paths Are Currently The Only Canonical ID / Do We Want Asset UUIDs? In this implementation AssetPaths are the only canonical asset identifier (just like the previous Bevy Asset system and Godot). Moving assets will result in re-scans (and currently reprocessing, although reprocessing can easily be avoided with some changes). Asset renames/moves will break code and assets that rely on specific paths, unless those paths are fixed up. Do we want / need "stable asset uuids"? Introducing them is very possible: 1. Generate a UUID and include it in .meta files 2. Support UUID in AssetPath 3. Generate "asset indices" which are loaded on startup and map UUIDs to paths. 4 (maybe). Consider only supporting UUIDs for processed assets so we can generate quick-to-load indices instead of scanning meta files. The main "pro" is that assets referencing UUIDs don't need to be migrated when a path changes. The main "con" is that UUIDs cannot be "lazily resolved" like paths. They need a full view of all assets to answer the question "does this UUID exist". Which means UUIDs require the AssetProcessor to fully finish startup scans before saying an asset doesnt exist. And they essentially require asset pre-processing to use in apps, because scanning all asset metadata files at runtime to resolve a UUID is not viable for medium-to-large apps. It really requires a pre-generated UUID index, which must be loaded before querying for assets. I personally think this should be investigated in a separate PR. Paths aren't going anywhere ... _everyone_ uses filesystems (and filesystem-like apis) to manage their asset source files. I consider them permanent canonical asset information. Additionally, they behave well for both processed and unprocessed asset modes. Given that Bevy is supporting both, this feels like the right canonical ID to start with. UUIDS (and maybe even other indexed-identifier types) can be added later as necessary. ### Folder / File Naming Conventions All asset processing config currently lives in the `.imported_assets` folder. The processor transaction log is in `.imported_assets/log`. Processed assets are added to `.imported_assets/Default`, which will make migrating to processed asset profiles (ex: a `.imported_assets/Mobile` profile) a non-breaking change. It also allows us to create top-level files like `.imported_assets/log` without it being interpreted as an asset. Meta files currently have a `.meta` suffix. Do we like these names and conventions? ### Should the `AssetPlugin::processed_dev` configuration enable `watch_for_changes` automatically? Currently it does (which I think makes sense), but it does make it the only configuration that enables watch_for_changes by default. ### Discuss on_loaded High Level Interface: This PR includes a very rough "proof of concept" `on_loaded` system adapter that uses the `LoadedWithDependencies` event in combination with `asset_server.load_asset` dependency tracking to support this pattern ```rust fn main() { App::new() .init_asset::<MyAssets>() .add_systems(Update, on_loaded(create_array_texture)) .run(); } #[derive(Asset, Clone)] struct MyAssets { #[dependency] picture_of_my_cat: Handle<Image>, #[dependency] picture_of_my_other_cat: Handle<Image>, } impl FromWorld for ArrayTexture { fn from_world(world: &mut World) -> Self { picture_of_my_cat: server.load("meow.png"), picture_of_my_other_cat: server.load("meeeeeeeow.png"), } } fn spawn_cat(In(my_assets): In<MyAssets>, mut commands: Commands) { commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_cat.clone(), ..default() }); commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_other_cat.clone(), ..default() }); } ``` The implementation is _very_ rough. And it is currently unsafe because `bevy_ecs` doesn't expose some internals to do this safely from inside `bevy_asset`. There are plenty of unanswered questions like: * "do we add a Loadable" derive? (effectively automate the FromWorld implementation above) * Should `MyAssets` even be an Asset? (largely implemented this way because it elegantly builds on `server.load_asset(MyAsset { .. })` dependency tracking). We should think hard about what our ideal API looks like (and if this is a pattern we want to support). Not necessarily something we need to solve in this PR. The current `on_loaded` impl should probably be removed from this PR before merging. ## Clarifying Questions ### What about Assets as Entities? This Bevy Asset V2 proposal implementation initially stored Assets as ECS Entities. Instead of `AssetId<T>` + the `Assets<T>` resource it used `Entity` as the asset id and Asset values were just ECS components. There are plenty of compelling reasons to do this: 1. Easier to inline assets in Bevy Scenes (as they are "just" normal entities + components) 2. More flexible queries: use the power of the ECS to filter assets (ex: `Query<Mesh, With<Tree>>`). 3. Extensible. Users can add arbitrary component data to assets. 4. Things like "component visualization tools" work out of the box to visualize asset data. However Assets as Entities has a ton of caveats right now: * We need to be able to allocate entity ids without a direct World reference (aka rework id allocator in Entities ... i worked around this in my prototypes by just pre allocating big chunks of entities) * We want asset change events in addition to ECS change tracking ... how do we populate them when mutations can come from anywhere? Do we use Changed queries? This would require iterating over the change data for all assets every frame. Is this acceptable or should we implement a new "event based" component change detection option? * Reconciling manually created assets with asset-system managed assets has some nuance (ex: are they "loaded" / do they also have that component metadata?) * "how do we handle "static" / default entity handles" (ties in to the Entity Indices discussion: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/8319). This is necessary for things like "built in" assets and default handles in things like SpriteBundle. * Storing asset information as a component makes it easy to "invalidate" asset state by removing the component (or forcing modifications). Ideally we have ways to lock this down (some combination of Rust type privacy and ECS validation) In practice, how we store and identify assets is a reasonably superficial change (porting off of Assets as Entities and implementing dedicated storage + ids took less than a day). So once we sort out the remaining challenges the flip should be straightforward. Additionally, I do still have "Assets as Entities" in my commit history, so we can reuse that work. I personally think "assets as entities" is a good endgame, but it also doesn't provide _significant_ value at the moment and it certainly isn't ready yet with the current state of things. ### Why not Distill? [Distill](https://github.com/amethyst/distill) is a high quality fully featured asset system built in Rust. It is very natural to ask "why not just use Distill?". It is also worth calling out that for awhile, [we planned on adopting Distill / I signed off on it](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/708). However I think Bevy has a number of constraints that make Distill adoption suboptimal: * **Architectural Simplicity:** * Distill's processor requires an in-memory database (lmdb) and RPC networked API (using Cap'n Proto). Each of these introduces API complexity that increases maintenance burden and "code grokability". Ignoring tests, documentation, and examples, Distill has 24,237 lines of Rust code (including generated code for RPC + database interactions). If you ignore generated code, it has 11,499 lines. * Bevy builds the AssetProcessor and AssetServer using pluggable AssetReader/AssetWriter Rust traits with simple io interfaces. They do not necessitate databases or RPC interfaces (although Readers/Writers could use them if that is desired). Bevy Asset V2 (at the time of writing this PR) is 5,384 lines of Rust code (ignoring tests, documentation, and examples). Grain of salt: Distill does have more features currently (ex: Asset Packing, GUIDS, remote-out-of-process asset processor). I do plan to implement these features in Bevy Asset V2 and I personally highly doubt they will meaningfully close the 6115 lines-of-code gap. * This complexity gap (which while illustrated by lines of code, is much bigger than just that) is noteworthy to me. Bevy should be hackable and there are pillars of Distill that are very hard to understand and extend. This is a matter of opinion (and Bevy Asset V2 also has complicated areas), but I think Bevy Asset V2 is much more approachable for the average developer. * Necessary disclaimer: counting lines of code is an extremely rough complexity metric. Read the code and form your own opinions. * **Optional Asset Processing:** Not all Bevy Apps (or Bevy App developers) need / want asset preprocessing. Processing increases the complexity of the development environment by introducing things like meta files, imported asset storage, running processors in the background, waiting for processing to finish, etc. Distill _requires_ preprocessing to work. With Bevy Asset V2 processing is fully opt-in. The AssetServer isn't directly aware of asset processors at all. AssetLoaders only care about converting bytes to runtime Assets ... they don't know or care if the bytes were pre-processed or not. Processing is "elegantly" (forgive my self-congratulatory phrasing) layered on top and builds on the existing Asset system primitives. * **Direct Filesystem Access to Processed Asset State:** Distill stores processed assets in a database. This makes debugging / inspecting the processed outputs harder (either requires special tooling to query the database or they need to be "deployed" to be inspected). Bevy Asset V2, on the other hand, stores processed assets in the filesystem (by default ... this is configurable). This makes interacting with the processed state more natural. Note that both Godot and Unity's new asset system store processed assets in the filesystem. * **Portability**: Because Distill's processor uses lmdb and RPC networking, it cannot be run on certain platforms (ex: lmdb is a non-rust dependency that cannot run on the web, some platforms don't support running network servers). Bevy should be able to process assets everywhere (ex: run the Bevy Editor on the web, compile + process shaders on mobile, etc). Distill does partially mitigate this problem by supporting "streaming" assets via the RPC protocol, but this is not a full solve from my perspective. And Bevy Asset V2 can (in theory) also stream assets (without requiring RPC, although this isn't implemented yet) Note that I _do_ still think Distill would be a solid asset system for Bevy. But I think the approach in this PR is a better solve for Bevy's specific "asset system requirements". ### Doesn't async-fs just shim requests to "sync" `std::fs`? What is the point? "True async file io" has limited / spotty platform support. async-fs (and the rust async ecosystem generally ... ex Tokio) currently use async wrappers over std::fs that offload blocking requests to separate threads. This may feel unsatisfying, but it _does_ still provide value because it prevents our task pools from blocking on file system operations (which would prevent progress when there are many tasks to do, but all threads in a pool are currently blocking on file system ops). Additionally, using async APIs for our AssetReaders and AssetWriters also provides value because we can later add support for "true async file io" for platforms that support it. _And_ we can implement other "true async io" asset backends (such as networked asset io). ## Draft TODO - [x] Fill in missing filesystem event APIs: file removed event (which is expressed as dangling RenameFrom events in some cases), file/folder renamed event - [x] Assets without loaders are not moved to the processed folder. This breaks things like referenced `.bin` files for GLTFs. This should be configurable per-non-asset-type. - [x] Initial implementation of Reflect and FromReflect for Handle. The "deserialization" parity bar is low here as this only worked with static UUIDs in the old impl ... this is a non-trivial problem. Either we add a Handle::AssetPath variant that gets "upgraded" to a strong handle on scene load or we use a separate AssetRef type for Bevy scenes (which is converted to a runtime Handle on load). This deserves its own discussion in a different pr. - [x] Populate read_asset_bytes hash when run by the processor (a bit of a special case .. when run by the processor the processed meta will contain the hash so we don't need to compute it on the spot, but we don't want/need to read the meta when run by the main AssetServer) - [x] Delay hot reloading: currently filesystem events are handled immediately, which creates timing issues in some cases. For example hot reloading images can sometimes break because the image isn't finished writing. We should add a delay, likely similar to the [implementation in this PR](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8503). - [x] Port old platform-specific AssetIo implementations to the new AssetReader interface (currently missing Android and web) - [x] Resolve on_loaded unsafety (either by removing the API entirely or removing the unsafe) - [x] Runtime loader setting overrides - [x] Remove remaining unwraps that should be error-handled. There are number of TODOs here - [x] Pretty AssetPath Display impl - [x] Document more APIs - [x] Resolve spurious "reloading because it has changed" events (to repro run load_gltf with `processed_dev()`) - [x] load_dependency hot reloading currently only works for processed assets. If processing is disabled, load_dependency changes are not hot reloaded. - [x] Replace AssetInfo dependency load/fail counters with `loading_dependencies: HashSet<UntypedAssetId>` to prevent reloads from (potentially) breaking counters. Storing this will also enable "dependency reloaded" events (see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [x] Re-add filesystem watcher cargo feature gate (currently it is not optional) - [ ] Migration Guide - [ ] Changelog ## Followup TODO - [ ] Replace "eager unchanged processed asset loading" behavior with "don't returned unchanged processed asset until dependencies have been checked". - [ ] Add true `Ignore` AssetAction that does not copy the asset to the imported_assets folder. - [ ] Finish "live asset unloading" (ex: free up CPU asset memory after uploading an image to the GPU), rethink RenderAssets, and port renderer features. The `Assets` collection uses `Option<T>` for asset storage to support its removal. (1) the Option might not actually be necessary ... might be able to just remove from the collection entirely (2) need to finalize removal apis - [ ] Try replacing the "channel based" asset id recycling with something a bit more efficient (ex: we might be able to use raw atomic ints with some cleverness) - [ ] Consider adding UUIDs to processed assets (scoped just to helping identify moved assets ... not exposed to load queries ... see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [ ] Store "last modified" source asset and meta timestamps in processed meta files to enable skipping expensive hashing when the file wasn't changed - [ ] Fix "slow loop" handle drop fix - [ ] Migrate to TypeName - [x] Handle "loader preregistration". See #9429 ## Next Steps * **Configurable per-type defaults for AssetMeta**: It should be possible to add configuration like "all png image meta should default to using nearest sampling" (currently this hard-coded per-loader/processor Settings::default() impls). Also see the "Folder Meta" bullet point. * **Avoid Reprocessing on Asset Renames / Moves**: See the "canonical asset ids" discussion in [Open Questions](#open-questions) and the relevant bullet point in [Draft TODO](#draft-todo). Even without canonical ids, folder renames could avoid reprocessing in some cases. * **Multiple Asset Sources**: Expand AssetPath to support "asset source names" and support multiple AssetReaders in the asset server (ex: `webserver://some_path/image.png` backed by an Http webserver AssetReader). The "default" asset reader would use normal `some_path/image.png` paths. Ideally this works in combination with multiple AssetWatchers for hot-reloading * **Stable Type Names**: this pr removes the TypeUuid requirement from assets in favor of `std::any::type_name`. This makes defining assets easier (no need to generate a new uuid / use weird proc macro syntax). It also makes reading meta files easier (because things have "friendly names"). We also use type names for components in scene files. If they are good enough for components, they are good enough for assets. And consistency across Bevy pillars is desirable. However, `std::any::type_name` is not guaranteed to be stable (although in practice it is). We've developed a [stable type path](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7184) to resolve this, which should be adopted when it is ready. * **Command Line Interface**: It should be possible to run the asset processor in a separate process from the command line. This will also require building a network-server-backed AssetReader to communicate between the app and the processor. We've been planning to build a "bevy cli" for awhile. This seems like a good excuse to build it. * **Asset Packing**: This is largely an additive feature, so it made sense to me to punt this until we've laid the foundations in this PR. * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: It should be possible to generate assets for multiple platforms by supporting multiple "processor profiles" per asset (ex: compress with format X on PC and Y on iOS). I think there should probably be arbitrary "profiles" (which can be separate from actual platforms), which are then assigned to a given platform when generating the final asset distribution for that platform. Ex: maybe devs want a "Mobile" profile that is shared between iOS and Android. Or a "LowEnd" profile shared between web and mobile. * **Versioning and Migrations**: Assets, Loaders, Savers, and Processors need to have versions to determine if their schema is valid. If an asset / loader version is incompatible with the current version expected at runtime, the processor should be able to migrate them. I think we should try using Bevy Reflect for this, as it would allow us to load the old version as a dynamic Reflect type without actually having the old Rust type. It would also allow us to define "patches" to migrate between versions (Bevy Reflect devs are currently working on patching). The `.meta` file already has its own format version. Migrating that to new versions should also be possible. * **Real Copy-on-write AssetPaths**: Rust's actual Cow (clone-on-write type) currently used by AssetPath can still result in String clones that aren't actually necessary (cloning an Owned Cow clones the contents). Bevy's asset system requires cloning AssetPaths in a number of places, which result in actual clones of the internal Strings. This is not efficient. AssetPath internals should be reworked to exhibit truer cow-like-behavior that reduces String clones to the absolute minimum. * **Consider processor-less processing**: In theory the AssetServer could run processors "inline" even if the background AssetProcessor is disabled. If we decide this is actually desirable, we could add this. But I don't think its a priority in the short or medium term. * **Pre-emptive dependency loading**: We could encode dependencies in processed meta files, which could then be used by the Asset Server to kick of dependency loads as early as possible (prior to starting the actual asset load). Is this desirable? How much time would this save in practice? * **Optimize Processor With UntypedAssetIds**: The processor exclusively uses AssetPath to identify assets currently. It might be possible to swap these out for UntypedAssetIds in some places, which are smaller / cheaper to hash and compare. * **One to Many Asset Processing**: An asset source file that produces many assets currently must be processed into a single "processed" asset source. If labeled assets can be written separately they can each have their own configured savers _and_ they could be loaded more granularly. Definitely worth exploring! * **Automatically Track "Runtime-only" Asset Dependencies**: Right now, tracking "created at runtime" asset dependencies requires adding them via `asset_server.load_asset(StandardMaterial::default())`. I think with some cleverness we could also do this for `materials.add(StandardMaterial::default())`, making tracking work "everywhere". There are challenges here relating to change detection / ensuring the server is made aware of dependency changes. This could be expensive in some cases. * **"Dependency Changed" events**: Some assets have runtime artifacts that need to be re-generated when one of their dependencies change (ex: regenerate a material's bind group when a Texture needs to change). We are generating the dependency graph so we can definitely produce these events. Buuuuut generating these events will have a cost / they could be high frequency for some assets, so we might want this to be opt-in for specific cases. * **Investigate Storing More Information In Handles**: Handles can now store arbitrary information, which makes it cheaper and easier to access. How much should we move into them? Canonical asset load states (via atomics)? (`handle.is_loaded()` would be very cool). Should we store the entire asset and remove the `Assets<T>` collection? (`Arc<RwLock<Option<Image>>>`?) * **Support processing and loading files without extensions**: This is a pretty arbitrary restriction and could be supported with very minimal changes. * **Folder Meta**: It would be nice if we could define per folder processor configuration defaults (likely in a `.meta` or `.folder_meta` file). Things like "default to linear filtering for all Images in this folder". * **Replace async_broadcast with event-listener?** This might be approximately drop-in for some uses and it feels more light weight * **Support Running the AssetProcessor on the Web**: Most of the hard work is done here, but there are some easy straggling TODOs (make the transaction log an interface instead of a direct file writer so we can write a web storage backend, implement an AssetReader/AssetWriter that reads/writes to something like LocalStorage). * **Consider identifying and preventing circular dependencies**: This is especially important for "processor dependencies", as processing will silently never finish in these cases. * **Built-in/Inlined Asset Hot Reloading**: This PR regresses "built-in/inlined" asset hot reloading (previously provided by the DebugAssetServer). I'm intentionally punting this because I think it can be cleanly implemented with "multiple asset sources" by registering a "debug asset source" (ex: `debug://bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl` asset paths) in combination with an AssetWatcher for that asset source and support for "manually loading pats with asset bytes instead of AssetReaders". The old DebugAssetServer was quite nasty and I'd love to avoid that hackery going forward. * **Investigate ways to remove double-parsing meta files**: Parsing meta files currently involves parsing once with "minimal" versions of the meta file to extract the type name of the loader/processor config, then parsing again to parse the "full" meta. This is suboptimal. We should be able to define custom deserializers that (1) assume the loader/processor type name comes first (2) dynamically looks up the loader/processor registrations to deserialize settings in-line (similar to components in the bevy scene format). Another alternative: deserialize as dynamic Reflect objects and then convert. * **More runtime loading configuration**: Support using the Handle type as a hint to select an asset loader (instead of relying on AssetPath extensions) * **More high level Processor trait implementations**: For example, it might be worth adding support for arbitrary chains of "asset transforms" that modify an in-memory asset representation between loading and saving. (ex: load a Mesh, run a `subdivide_mesh` transform, followed by a `flip_normals` transform, then save the mesh to an efficient compressed format). * **Bevy Scene Handle Deserialization**: (see the relevant [Draft TODO item](#draft-todo) for context) * **Explore High Level Load Interfaces**: See [this discussion](#discuss-on_loaded-high-level-interface) for one prototype. * **Asset Streaming**: It would be great if we could stream Assets (ex: stream a long video file piece by piece) * **ID Exchanging**: In this PR Asset Handles/AssetIds are bigger than they need to be because they have a Uuid enum variant. If we implement an "id exchanging" system that trades Uuids for "efficient runtime ids", we can cut down on the size of AssetIds, making them more efficient. This has some open design questions, such as how to spawn entities with "default" handle values (as these wouldn't have access to the exchange api in the current system). * **Asset Path Fixup Tooling**: Assets that inline asset paths inside them will break when an asset moves. The asset system provides the functionality to detect when paths break. We should build a framework that enables formats to define "path migrations". This is especially important for scene files. For editor-generated files, we should also consider using UUIDs (see other bullet point) to avoid the need to migrate in these cases. --------- Co-authored-by: BeastLe9enD <beastle9end@outlook.de> Co-authored-by: Mike <mike.hsu@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com> |

Split ComputedVisibility into two components to allow for accurate change detection and speed up visibility propagation (#9497)
# Objective Fix #8267. Fixes half of #7840. The `ComputedVisibility` component contains two flags: hierarchy visibility, and view visibility (whether its visible to any cameras). Due to the modular and open-ended way that view visibility is computed, it triggers change detection every single frame, even when the value does not change. Since hierarchy visibility is stored in the same component as view visibility, this means that change detection for inherited visibility is completely broken. At the company I work for, this has become a real issue. We are using change detection to only re-render scenes when necessary. The broken state of change detection for computed visibility means that we have to to rely on the non-inherited `Visibility` component for now. This is workable in the early stages of our project, but since we will inevitably want to use the hierarchy, we will have to either: 1. Roll our own solution for computed visibility. 2. Fix the issue for everyone. ## Solution Split the `ComputedVisibility` component into two: `InheritedVisibilty` and `ViewVisibility`. This allows change detection to behave properly for `InheritedVisibility`. View visiblity is still erratic, although it is less useful to be able to detect changes for this flavor of visibility. Overall, this actually simplifies the API. Since the visibility system consists of self-explaining components, it is much easier to document the behavior and usage. This approach is more modular and "ECS-like" -- one could strip out the `ViewVisibility` component entirely if it's not needed, and rely only on inherited visibility. --- ## Changelog - `ComputedVisibility` has been removed in favor of: `InheritedVisibility` and `ViewVisiblity`. ## Migration Guide The `ComputedVisibilty` component has been split into `InheritedVisiblity` and `ViewVisibility`. Replace any usages of `ComputedVisibility::is_visible_in_hierarchy` with `InheritedVisibility::get`, and replace `ComputedVisibility::is_visible_in_view` with `ViewVisibility::get`. ```rust // Before: commands.spawn(VisibilityBundle { visibility: Visibility::Inherited, computed_visibility: ComputedVisibility::default(), }); // After: commands.spawn(VisibilityBundle { visibility: Visibility::Inherited, inherited_visibility: InheritedVisibility::default(), view_visibility: ViewVisibility::default(), }); ``` ```rust // Before: fn my_system(q: Query<&ComputedVisibilty>) { for vis in &q { if vis.is_visible_in_hierarchy() { // After: fn my_system(q: Query<&InheritedVisibility>) { for inherited_visibility in &q { if inherited_visibility.get() { ``` ```rust // Before: fn my_system(q: Query<&ComputedVisibilty>) { for vis in &q { if vis.is_visible_in_view() { // After: fn my_system(q: Query<&ViewVisibility>) { for view_visibility in &q { if view_visibility.get() { ``` ```rust // Before: fn my_system(mut q: Query<&mut ComputedVisibilty>) { for vis in &mut q { vis.set_visible_in_view(); // After: fn my_system(mut q: Query<&mut ViewVisibility>) { for view_visibility in &mut q { view_visibility.set(); ``` --------- Co-authored-by: Robert Swain <robert.swain@gmail.com> |

Reorder render sets, refactor bevy_sprite to take advantage (#9236)
This is a continuation of this PR: #8062 # Objective - Reorder render schedule sets to allow data preparation when phase item order is known to support improved batching - Part of the batching/instancing etc plan from here: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/89#issuecomment-1379249074 - The original idea came from @inodentry and proved to be a good one. Thanks! - Refactor `bevy_sprite` and `bevy_ui` to take advantage of the new ordering ## Solution - Move `Prepare` and `PrepareFlush` after `PhaseSortFlush` - Add a `PrepareAssets` set that runs in parallel with other systems and sets in the render schedule. - Put prepare_assets systems in the `PrepareAssets` set - If explicit dependencies are needed on Mesh or Material RenderAssets then depend on the appropriate system. - Add `ManageViews` and `ManageViewsFlush` sets between `ExtractCommands` and Queue - Move `queue_mesh*_bind_group` to the Prepare stage - Rename them to `prepare_` - Put systems that prepare resources (buffers, textures, etc.) into a `PrepareResources` set inside `Prepare` - Put the `prepare_..._bind_group` systems into a `PrepareBindGroup` set after `PrepareResources` - Move `prepare_lights` to the `ManageViews` set - `prepare_lights` creates views and this must happen before `Queue` - This system needs refactoring to stop handling all responsibilities - Gather lights, sort, and create shadow map views. Store sorted light entities in a resource - Remove `BatchedPhaseItem` - Replace `batch_range` with `batch_size` representing how many items to skip after rendering the item or to skip the item entirely if `batch_size` is 0. - `queue_sprites` has been split into `queue_sprites` for queueing phase items and `prepare_sprites` for batching after the `PhaseSort` - `PhaseItem`s are still inserted in `queue_sprites` - After sorting adjacent compatible sprite phase items are accumulated into `SpriteBatch` components on the first entity of each batch, containing a range of vertex indices. The associated `PhaseItem`'s `batch_size` is updated appropriately. - `SpriteBatch` items are then drawn skipping over the other items in the batch based on the value in `batch_size` - A very similar refactor was performed on `bevy_ui` --- ## Changelog Changed: - Reordered and reworked render app schedule sets. The main change is that data is extracted, queued, sorted, and then prepared when the order of data is known. - Refactor `bevy_sprite` and `bevy_ui` to take advantage of the reordering. ## Migration Guide - Assets such as materials and meshes should now be created in `PrepareAssets` e.g. `prepare_assets<Mesh>` - Queueing entities to `RenderPhase`s continues to be done in `Queue` e.g. `queue_sprites` - Preparing resources (textures, buffers, etc.) should now be done in `PrepareResources`, e.g. `prepare_prepass_textures`, `prepare_mesh_uniforms` - Prepare bind groups should now be done in `PrepareBindGroups` e.g. `prepare_mesh_bind_group` - Any batching or instancing can now be done in `Prepare` where the order of the phase items is known e.g. `prepare_sprites` ## Next Steps - Introduce some generic mechanism to ensure items that can be batched are grouped in the phase item order, currently you could easily have `[sprite at z 0, mesh at z 0, sprite at z 0]` preventing batching. - Investigate improved orderings for building the MeshUniform buffer - Implementing batching across the rest of bevy --------- Co-authored-by: Robert Swain <robert.swain@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: robtfm <50659922+robtfm@users.noreply.github.com> |

Reduce the size of MeshUniform to improve performance (#9416)
# Objective - Significantly reduce the size of MeshUniform by only including necessary data. ## Solution Local to world, model transforms are affine. This means they only need a 4x3 matrix to represent them. `MeshUniform` stores the current, and previous model transforms, and the inverse transpose of the current model transform, all as 4x4 matrices. Instead we can store the current, and previous model transforms as 4x3 matrices, and we only need the upper-left 3x3 part of the inverse transpose of the current model transform. This change allows us to reduce the serialized MeshUniform size from 208 bytes to 144 bytes, which is over a 30% saving in data to serialize, and VRAM bandwidth and space. ## Benchmarks On an M1 Max, running `many_cubes -- sphere`, main is in yellow, this PR is in red: <img width="1484" alt="Screenshot 2023-08-11 at 02 36 43" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/7d99c7b3-f2bb-4004-a8d0-4c00f755cb0d"> A reduction in frame time of ~14%. --- ## Changelog - Changed: Redefined `MeshUniform` to improve performance by using 4x3 affine transforms and reconstructing 4x4 matrices in the shader. Helper functions were added to `bevy_pbr::mesh_functions` to unpack the data. `affine_to_square` converts the packed 4x3 in 3x4 matrix data to a 4x4 matrix. `mat2x4_f32_to_mat3x3` converts the 3x3 in mat2x4 + f32 matrix data back into a 3x3. ## Migration Guide Shader code before: ``` var model = mesh[instance_index].model; ``` Shader code after: ``` #import bevy_pbr::mesh_functions affine_to_square var model = affine_to_square(mesh[instance_index].model); ``` |

Work around naga/wgpu WGSL instance_index -> GLSL gl_InstanceID bug on WebGL2 (#9383)
naga and wgpu should polyfill WGSL instance_index functionality where it is not available in GLSL. Until that is done, we can work around it in bevy using a push constant which is converted to a uniform by naga and wgpu. # Objective - Fixes #9375 ## Solution - Use a push constant to pass in the base instance to the shader on WebGL2 so that base instance + gl_InstanceID is used to correctly represent the instance index. ## TODO - [ ] Benchmark vs per-object dynamic offset MeshUniform as this will now push a uniform value per-draw as well as update the dynamic offset per-batch. - [x] Test on DX12 AMD/NVIDIA to check that this PR does not regress any problems that were observed there. (@Elabajaba @robtfm were testing that last time - help appreciated. <3 ) --- ## Changelog - Added: `bevy_render::instance_index` shader import which includes a workaround for the lack of a WGSL `instance_index` polyfill for WebGL2 in naga and wgpu for the time being. It uses a push_constant which gets converted to a plain uniform by naga and wgpu. ## Migration Guide Shader code before: ``` struct Vertex { @builtin(instance_index) instance_index: u32, ... } @vertex fn vertex(vertex_no_morph: Vertex) -> VertexOutput { ... var model = mesh[vertex_no_morph.instance_index].model; ``` After: ``` #import bevy_render::instance_index struct Vertex { @builtin(instance_index) instance_index: u32, ... } @vertex fn vertex(vertex_no_morph: Vertex) -> VertexOutput { ... var model = mesh[bevy_render::instance_index::get_instance_index(vertex_no_morph.instance_index)].model; ``` |

Fix shader_material_glsl example after #9254 (#9311)
# Objective - Fix shader_material_glsl example ## Solution - Expose the `PER_OBJECT_BUFFER_BATCH_SIZE` shader def through the default `MeshPipeline` specialization. - Make use of it in the `custom_material.vert` shader to access the mesh binding. --- ## Changelog - Added: Exposed the `PER_OBJECT_BUFFER_BATCH_SIZE` shader def through the default `MeshPipeline` specialization to use in custom shaders not using bevy_pbr::mesh_bindings that still want to use the mesh binding in some way. |

Use GpuArrayBuffer for MeshUniform (#9254)
# Objective
- Reduce the number of rebindings to enable batching of draw commands
## Solution
- Use the new `GpuArrayBuffer` for `MeshUniform` data to store all
`MeshUniform` data in arrays within fewer bindings
- Sort opaque/alpha mask prepass, opaque/alpha mask main, and shadow
phases also by the batch per-object data binding dynamic offset to
improve performance on WebGL2.
---
## Changelog
- Changed: Per-object `MeshUniform` data is now managed by
`GpuArrayBuffer` as arrays in buffers that need to be indexed into.
## Migration Guide
Accessing the `model` member of an individual mesh object's shader
`Mesh` struct the old way where each `MeshUniform` was stored at its own
dynamic offset:
```rust
struct Vertex {
@location(0) position: vec3<f32>,
};
fn vertex(vertex: Vertex) -> VertexOutput {
var out: VertexOutput;
out.clip_position = mesh_position_local_to_clip(
mesh.model,
vec4<f32>(vertex.position, 1.0)
);
return out;
}
```
The new way where one needs to index into the array of `Mesh`es for the
batch:
```rust
struct Vertex {
@builtin(instance_index) instance_index: u32,
@location(0) position: vec3<f32>,
};
fn vertex(vertex: Vertex) -> VertexOutput {
var out: VertexOutput;
out.clip_position = mesh_position_local_to_clip(
mesh[vertex.instance_index].model,
vec4<f32>(vertex.position, 1.0)
);
return out;
}
```
Note that using the instance_index is the default way to pass the
per-object index into the shader, but if you wish to do custom rendering
approaches you can pass it in however you like.

improve shader import model (#5703)
# Objective operate on naga IR directly to improve handling of shader modules. - give codespan reporting into imported modules - allow glsl to be used from wgsl and vice-versa the ultimate objective is to make it possible to - provide user hooks for core shader functions (to modify light behaviour within the standard pbr pipeline, for example) - make automatic binding slot allocation possible but ... since this is already big, adds some value and (i think) is at feature parity with the existing code, i wanted to push this now. ## Solution i made a crate called naga_oil (https://github.com/robtfm/naga_oil - unpublished for now, could be part of bevy) which manages modules by - building each module independantly to naga IR - creating "header" files for each supported language, which are used to build dependent modules/shaders - make final shaders by combining the shader IR with the IR for imported modules then integrated this into bevy, replacing some of the existing shader processing stuff. also reworked examples to reflect this. ## Migration Guide shaders that don't use `#import` directives should work without changes. the most notable user-facing difference is that imported functions/variables/etc need to be qualified at point of use, and there's no "leakage" of visible stuff into your shader scope from the imports of your imports, so if you used things imported by your imports, you now need to import them directly and qualify them. the current strategy of including/'spreading' `mesh_vertex_output` directly into a struct doesn't work any more, so these need to be modified as per the examples (e.g. color_material.wgsl, or many others). mesh data is assumed to be in bindgroup 2 by default, if mesh data is bound into bindgroup 1 instead then the shader def `MESH_BINDGROUP_1` needs to be added to the pipeline shader_defs. |

Add morph targets (#8158)
# Objective - Add morph targets to `bevy_pbr` (closes #5756) & load them from glTF - Supersedes #3722 - Fixes #6814 [Morph targets][1] (also known as shape interpolation, shape keys, or blend shapes) allow animating individual vertices with fine grained controls. This is typically used for facial expressions. By specifying multiple poses as vertex offset, and providing a set of weight of each pose, it is possible to define surprisingly realistic transitions between poses. Blending between multiple poses also allow composition. Morph targets are part of the [gltf standard][2] and are a feature of Unity and Unreal, and babylone.js, it is only natural to implement them in bevy. ## Solution This implementation of morph targets uses a 3d texture where each pixel is a component of an animated attribute. Each layer is a different target. We use a 2d texture for each target, because the number of attribute×components×animated vertices is expected to always exceed the maximum pixel row size limit of webGL2. It copies fairly closely the way skinning is implemented on the CPU side, while on the GPU side, the shader morph target implementation is a relatively trivial detail. We add an optional `morph_texture` to the `Mesh` struct. The `morph_texture` is built through a method that accepts an iterator over attribute buffers. The `MorphWeights` component, user-accessible, controls the blend of poses used by mesh instances (so that multiple copy of the same mesh may have different weights), all the weights are uploaded to a uniform buffer of 256 `f32`. We limit to 16 poses per mesh, and a total of 256 poses. More literature: * Old babylone.js implementation (vertex attribute-based): https://www.eternalcoding.com/dev-log-1-morph-targets/ * Babylone.js implementation (similar to ours): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBPRmGgU0PE * GPU gems 3: https://developer.nvidia.com/gpugems/gpugems3/part-i-geometry/chapter-3-directx-10-blend-shapes-breaking-limits * Development discord thread https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/1083325980615114772 https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/26321040/231181046-3bca2ab2-d4d9-472e-8098-639f1871ce2e.mp4 https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/26321040/d2a0c544-0ef8-45cf-9f99-8c3792f5a258 ## Acknowledgements * Thanks to `storytold` for sponsoring the feature * Thanks to `superdump` and `james7132` for guidance and help figuring out stuff ## Future work - Handling of less and more attributes (eg: animated uv, animated arbitrary attributes) - Dynamic pose allocation (so that zero-weighted poses aren't uploaded to GPU for example, enables much more total poses) - Better animation API, see #8357 ---- ## Changelog - Add morph targets to bevy meshes - Support up to 64 poses per mesh of individually up to 116508 vertices, animation currently strictly limited to the position, normal and tangent attributes. - Load a morph target using `Mesh::set_morph_targets` - Add `VisitMorphTargets` and `VisitMorphAttributes` traits to `bevy_render`, this allows defining morph targets (a fairly complex and nested data structure) through iterators (ie: single copy instead of passing around buffers), see documentation of those traits for details - Add `MorphWeights` component exported by `bevy_render` - `MorphWeights` control mesh's morph target weights, blending between various poses defined as morph targets. - `MorphWeights` are directly inherited by direct children (single level of hierarchy) of an entity. This allows controlling several mesh primitives through a unique entity _as per GLTF spec_. - Add `MorphTargetNames` component, naming each indices of loaded morph targets. - Load morph targets weights and buffers in `bevy_gltf` - handle morph targets animations in `bevy_animation` (previously, it was a `warn!` log) - Add the `MorphStressTest.gltf` asset for morph targets testing, taken from the glTF samples repo, CC0. - Add morph target manipulation to `scene_viewer` - Separate the animation code in `scene_viewer` from the rest of the code, reducing `#[cfg(feature)]` noise - Add the `morph_targets.rs` example to show off how to manipulate morph targets, loading `MorpStressTest.gltf` ## Migration Guide - (very specialized, unlikely to be touched by 3rd parties) - `MeshPipeline` now has a single `mesh_layouts` field rather than separate `mesh_layout` and `skinned_mesh_layout` fields. You should handle all possible mesh bind group layouts in your implementation - You should also handle properly the new `MORPH_TARGETS` shader def and mesh pipeline key. A new function is exposed to make this easier: `setup_moprh_and_skinning_defs` - The `MeshBindGroup` is now `MeshBindGroups`, cached bind groups are now accessed through the `get` method.

Allow tuples and single plugins in add_plugins, deprecate add_plugin (#8097)
# Objective - Better consistency with `add_systems`. - Deprecating `add_plugin` in favor of a more powerful `add_plugins`. - Allow passing `Plugin` to `add_plugins`. - Allow passing tuples to `add_plugins`. ## Solution - `App::add_plugins` now takes an `impl Plugins` parameter. - `App::add_plugin` is deprecated. - `Plugins` is a new sealed trait that is only implemented for `Plugin`, `PluginGroup` and tuples over `Plugins`. - All examples, benchmarks and tests are changed to use `add_plugins`, using tuples where appropriate. --- ## Changelog ### Changed - `App::add_plugins` now accepts all types that implement `Plugins`, which is implemented for: - Types that implement `Plugin`. - Types that implement `PluginGroup`. - Tuples (up to 16 elements) over types that implement `Plugins`. - Deprecated `App::add_plugin` in favor of `App::add_plugins`. ## Migration Guide - Replace `app.add_plugin(plugin)` calls with `app.add_plugins(plugin)`. --------- Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com> |

Screen Space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO) MVP (#7402)
# Objective
- Add Screen space ambient occlusion (SSAO). SSAO approximates
small-scale, local occlusion of _indirect_ diffuse light between
objects. SSAO does not apply to direct lighting, such as point or
directional lights.
- This darkens creases, e.g. on staircases, and gives nice contact
shadows where objects meet, giving entities a more "grounded" feel.
- Closes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/3632.
## Solution
- Implement the GTAO algorithm.

Apply codebase changes in preparation for StandardMaterial transmission (#8704)
# Objective - Make #8015 easier to review; ## Solution - This commit contains changes not directly related to transmission required by #8015, in easier-to-review, one-change-per-commit form. --- ## Changelog ### Fixed - Clear motion vector prepass using `0.0` instead of `1.0`, to avoid TAA artifacts on transparent objects against the background; ### Added - The `E` mathematical constant is now available for use in shaders, exposed under `bevy_pbr::utils`; - A new `TAA` shader def is now available, for conditionally enabling shader logic via `#ifdef` when TAA is enabled; (e.g. for jittering texture samples) - A new `FallbackImageZero` resource is introduced, for when a fallback image filled with zeroes is required; - A new `RenderPhase<I>::render_range()` method is introduced, for render phases that need to render their items in multiple parceled out “steps”; ### Changed - The `MainTargetTextures` struct now holds both `Texture` and `TextureViews` for the main textures; - The fog shader functions under `bevy_pbr::fog` now take the a `Fog` structure as their first argument, instead of relying on the global `fog` uniform; - The main textures can now be used as copy sources; ## Migration Guide - `ViewTarget::main_texture()` and `ViewTarget::main_texture_other()` now return `&Texture` instead of `&TextureView`. If you were relying on these methods, replace your usage with `ViewTarget::main_texture_view()`and `ViewTarget::main_texture_other_view()`, respectively; - `ViewTarget::sampled_main_texture()` now returns `Option<&Texture>` instead of a `Option<&TextureView>`. If you were relying on this method, replace your usage with `ViewTarget::sampled_main_texture_view()`; - The `apply_fog()`, `linear_fog()`, `exponential_fog()`, `exponential_squared_fog()` and `atmospheric_fog()` functions now take a configurable `Fog` struct. If you were relying on them, update your usage by adding the global `fog` uniform as their first argument; |

Add MAY_DISCARD shader def, enabling early depth tests for most cases (#6697)
# Objective - Right now we can't really benefit from [early depth testing](https://www.khronos.org/opengl/wiki/Early_Fragment_Test) in our PBR shader because it includes codepaths with `discard`, even for situations where they are not necessary. ## Solution - This PR introduces a new `MeshPipelineKey` and shader def, `MAY_DISCARD`; - All possible material/mesh options that that may result in `discard`s being needed must set `MAY_DISCARD` ahead of time: - Right now, this is only `AlphaMode::Mask(f32)`, but in the future might include other options/effects; (e.g. one effect I'm personally interested in is bayer dither pseudo-transparency for LOD transitions of opaque meshes) - Shader codepaths that can `discard` are guarded by an `#ifdef MAY_DISCARD` preprocessor directive: - Right now, this is just one branch in `alpha_discard()`; - If `MAY_DISCARD` is _not_ set, the `@early_depth_test` attribute is added to the PBR fragment shader. This is a not yet documented, possibly non-standard WGSL extension I found browsing Naga's source code. [I opened a PR to document it there](https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga/pull/2132). My understanding is that for backends where this attribute is supported, it will force an explicit opt-in to early depth test. (e.g. via `layout(early_fragment_tests) in;` in GLSL) ## Caveats - I included `@early_depth_test` for the sake of us being explicit, and avoiding the need for the driver to be “smart” about enabling this feature. That way, if we make a mistake and include a `discard` unguarded by `MAY_DISCARD`, it will either produce errors or noticeable visual artifacts so that we'll catch early, instead of causing a performance regression. - I'm not sure explicit early depth test is supported on the naga Metal backend, which is what I'm currently using, so I can't really test the explicit early depth test enable, I would like others with Vulkan/GL hardware to test it if possible; - I would like some guidance on how to measure/verify the performance benefits of this; - If I understand it correctly, this, or _something like this_ is needed to fully reap the performance gains enabled by #6284; - This will _most definitely_ conflict with #6284 and #6644. I can fix the conflicts as needed, depending on whether/the order they end up being merging in. --- ## Changelog ### Changed - Early depth tests are now enabled whenever possible for meshes using `StandardMaterial`, reducing the number of fragments evaluated for scenes with lots of occlusions. |

Webgpu support (#8336)
# Objective - Support WebGPU - alternative to #5027 that doesn't need any async / await - fixes #8315 - Surprise fix #7318 ## Solution ### For async renderer initialisation - Update the plugin lifecycle: - app builds the plugin - calls `plugin.build` - registers the plugin - app starts the event loop - event loop waits for `ready` of all registered plugins in the same order - returns `true` by default - then call all `finish` then all `cleanup` in the same order as registered - then execute the schedule In the case of the renderer, to avoid anything async: - building the renderer plugin creates a detached task that will send back the initialised renderer through a mutex in a resource - `ready` will wait for the renderer to be present in the resource - `finish` will take that renderer and place it in the expected resources by other plugins - other plugins (that expect the renderer to be available) `finish` are called and they are able to set up their pipelines - `cleanup` is called, only custom one is still for pipeline rendering ### For WebGPU support - update the `build-wasm-example` script to support passing `--api webgpu` that will build the example with WebGPU support - feature for webgl2 was always enabled when building for wasm. it's now in the default feature list and enabled on all platforms, so check for this feature must also check that the target_arch is `wasm32` --- ## Migration Guide - `Plugin::setup` has been renamed `Plugin::cleanup` - `Plugin::finish` has been added, and plugins adding pipelines should do it in this function instead of `Plugin::build` ```rust // Before impl Plugin for MyPlugin { fn build(&self, app: &mut App) { app.insert_resource::<MyResource> .add_systems(Update, my_system); let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) { Ok(render_app) => render_app, Err(_) => return, }; render_app .init_resource::<RenderResourceNeedingDevice>() .init_resource::<OtherRenderResource>(); } } // After impl Plugin for MyPlugin { fn build(&self, app: &mut App) { app.insert_resource::<MyResource> .add_systems(Update, my_system); let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) { Ok(render_app) => render_app, Err(_) => return, }; render_app .init_resource::<OtherRenderResource>(); } fn finish(&self, app: &mut App) { let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) { Ok(render_app) => render_app, Err(_) => return, }; render_app .init_resource::<RenderResourceNeedingDevice>(); } } ``` |

Use the prepass normal texture in main pass when possible (#8231)
# Objective - We support enabling a normal prepass, but the main pass never actually uses it and recomputes the normals in the main pass. This isn't ideal since it's doing redundant work. ## Solution - Use the normal texture from the prepass in the main pass ## Notes ~~I used `NORMAL_PREPASS_ENABLED` as a shader_def because `NORMAL_PREPASS` is currently used to signify that it is running in the prepass while this shader_def need to indicate the prepass is done and the normal prepass was ran before. I'm not sure if there's a better way to name this.~~ |

use blendstate blend for alphamode::blend (#7899)
# Objective revert combining pipelines for AlphaMode::Blend and AlphaMode::Premultiplied & Add the recent blend state pr changed `AlphaMode::Blend` to use a blend state of `Blend::PREMULTIPLIED_ALPHA_BLENDING`, and recovered the original behaviour by multiplying colour by alpha in the standard material's fragment shader. this had some advantages (specifically it means more material instances can be batched together in future), but this also means that custom materials that specify `AlphaMode::Blend` now get a premultiplied blend state, so they must also multiply colour by alpha. ## Solution revert that combination to preserve 0.9 behaviour for custom materials with AlphaMode::Blend. |
