bevy_reflect: FromReflect Ergonomics Implementation (#6056)
# Objective **This implementation is based on https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/59.** --- Resolves #4597 Full details and motivation can be found in the RFC, but here's a brief summary. `FromReflect` is a very powerful and important trait within the reflection API. It allows Dynamic types (e.g., `DynamicList`, etc.) to be formed into Real ones (e.g., `Vec<i32>`, etc.). This mainly comes into play concerning deserialization, where the reflection deserializers both return a `Box<dyn Reflect>` that almost always contain one of these Dynamic representations of a Real type. To convert this to our Real type, we need to use `FromReflect`. It also sneaks up in other ways. For example, it's a required bound for `T` in `Vec<T>` so that `Vec<T>` as a whole can be made `FromReflect`. It's also required by all fields of an enum as it's used as part of the `Reflect::apply` implementation. So in other words, much like `GetTypeRegistration` and `Typed`, it is very much a core reflection trait. The problem is that it is not currently treated like a core trait and is not automatically derived alongside `Reflect`. This makes using it a bit cumbersome and easy to forget. ## Solution Automatically derive `FromReflect` when deriving `Reflect`. Users can then choose to opt-out if needed using the `#[reflect(from_reflect = false)]` attribute. ```rust #[derive(Reflect)] struct Foo; #[derive(Reflect)] #[reflect(from_reflect = false)] struct Bar; fn test<T: FromReflect>(value: T) {} test(Foo); // <-- OK test(Bar); // <-- Panic! Bar does not implement trait `FromReflect` ``` #### `ReflectFromReflect` This PR also automatically adds the `ReflectFromReflect` (introduced in #6245) registration to the derived `GetTypeRegistration` impl— if the type hasn't opted out of `FromReflect` of course. <details> <summary><h4>Improved Deserialization</h4></summary> > **Warning** > This section includes changes that have since been descoped from this PR. They will likely be implemented again in a followup PR. I am mainly leaving these details in for archival purposes, as well as for reference when implementing this logic again. And since we can do all the above, we might as well improve deserialization. We can now choose to deserialize into a Dynamic type or automatically convert it using `FromReflect` under the hood. `[Un]TypedReflectDeserializer::new` will now perform the conversion and return the `Box`'d Real type. `[Un]TypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic` will work like what we have now and simply return the `Box`'d Dynamic type. ```rust // Returns the Real type let reflect_deserializer = UntypedReflectDeserializer::new(®istry); let mut deserializer = ron:🇩🇪:Deserializer::from_str(input)?; let output: SomeStruct = reflect_deserializer.deserialize(&mut deserializer)?.take()?; // Returns the Dynamic type let reflect_deserializer = UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic(®istry); let mut deserializer = ron:🇩🇪:Deserializer::from_str(input)?; let output: DynamicStruct = reflect_deserializer.deserialize(&mut deserializer)?.take()?; ``` </details> --- ## Changelog * `FromReflect` is now automatically derived within the `Reflect` derive macro * This includes auto-registering `ReflectFromReflect` in the derived `GetTypeRegistration` impl * ~~Renamed `TypedReflectDeserializer::new` and `UntypedReflectDeserializer::new` to `TypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic` and `UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic`, respectively~~ **Descoped** * ~~Changed `TypedReflectDeserializer::new` and `UntypedReflectDeserializer::new` to automatically convert the deserialized output using `FromReflect`~~ **Descoped** ## Migration Guide * `FromReflect` is now automatically derived within the `Reflect` derive macro. Items with both derives will need to remove the `FromReflect` one. ```rust // OLD #[derive(Reflect, FromReflect)] struct Foo; // NEW #[derive(Reflect)] struct Foo; ``` If using a manual implementation of `FromReflect` and the `Reflect` derive, users will need to opt-out of the automatic implementation. ```rust // OLD #[derive(Reflect)] struct Foo; impl FromReflect for Foo {/* ... */} // NEW #[derive(Reflect)] #[reflect(from_reflect = false)] struct Foo; impl FromReflect for Foo {/* ... */} ``` <details> <summary><h4>Removed Migrations</h4></summary> > **Warning** > This section includes changes that have since been descoped from this PR. They will likely be implemented again in a followup PR. I am mainly leaving these details in for archival purposes, as well as for reference when implementing this logic again. * The reflect deserializers now perform a `FromReflect` conversion internally. The expected output of `TypedReflectDeserializer::new` and `UntypedReflectDeserializer::new` is no longer a Dynamic (e.g., `DynamicList`), but its Real counterpart (e.g., `Vec<i32>`). ```rust let reflect_deserializer = UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic(®istry); let mut deserializer = ron:🇩🇪:Deserializer::from_str(input)?; // OLD let output: DynamicStruct = reflect_deserializer.deserialize(&mut deserializer)?.take()?; // NEW let output: SomeStruct = reflect_deserializer.deserialize(&mut deserializer)?.take()?; ``` Alternatively, if this behavior isn't desired, use the `TypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic` and `UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic` methods instead: ```rust // OLD let reflect_deserializer = UntypedReflectDeserializer::new(®istry); // NEW let reflect_deserializer = UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic(®istry); ``` </details> --------- Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com> |

Add FromReflect where Reflect is used (#8776)
# Objective Discovered that PointLight did not implement FromReflect. Adding FromReflect where Reflect is used. I overreached and applied this rule everywhere there was a Reflect without a FromReflect, except from where the compiler wouldn't allow me. Based from question: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/8774 ## Solution - Adding FromReflect where Reflect was already derived ## Notes First PR I do in this ecosystem, so not sure if this is the usual approach, that is, to touch many files at once. --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> |

Add parallax mapping to bevy PBR (#5928)
# Objective Add a [parallax mapping] shader to bevy. Please note that this is a 3d technique, NOT a 2d sidescroller feature. ## Solution - Add related fields to `StandardMaterial` - update the pbr shader - Add an example taking advantage of parallax mapping A pre-existing implementation exists at: https://github.com/nicopap/bevy_mod_paramap/ The implementation is derived from: https://web.archive.org/web/20150419215321/http://sunandblackcat.com/tipFullView.php?l=eng&topicid=28 Further discussion on literature is found in the `bevy_mod_paramap` README. ### Limitations - The mesh silhouette isn't affected by the depth map. - The depth of the pixel does not reflect its visual position, resulting in artifacts for depth-dependent features such as fog or SSAO - GLTF does not define a height map texture, so somehow the user will always need to work around this limitation, though [an extension is in the works][gltf] ### Future work - It's possible to update the depth in the depth buffer to follow the parallaxed texture. This would enable interop with depth-based visual effects, it also allows `discard`ing pixels of materials when computed depth is higher than the one in depth buffer - Cheap lower quality single-sample method using [offset limiting] - Add distance fading, to disable parallaxing (relatively expensive) on distant objects - GLTF extension to allow defining height maps. Or a workaround implemented through a blender plugin to the GLTF exporter that uses the `extras` field to add height map. - [Quadratic surface vertex attributes][oliveira_3] to enable parallax mapping on bending surfaces and allow clean silhouetting. - noise based sampling, to limit the pancake artifacts. - Cone mapping ([GPU gems], [Simcity (2013)][simcity]). Requires preprocessing, increase depth map size, reduces sample count greatly. - [Quadtree parallax mapping][qpm] (also requires preprocessing) - Self-shadowing of parallax-mapped surfaces by modifying the shadow map - Generate depth map from normal map [link to slides], [blender question] https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/26321040/223563792-dffcc6ab-70e8-4ff9-90d1-b36c338695ad.mp4 [blender question]: https://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/89278/how-to-get-a-smooth-curvature-map-from-a-normal-map [link to slides]: https://developer.download.nvidia.com/assets/gamedev/docs/nmap2displacement.pdf [oliveira_3]: https://www.inf.ufrgs.br/~oliveira/pubs_files/Oliveira_Policarpo_RP-351_Jan_2005.pdf [GPU gems]: https://developer.nvidia.com/gpugems/gpugems3/part-iii-rendering/chapter-18-relaxed-cone-stepping-relief-mapping [simcity]: https://community.simtropolis.com/omnibus/other-games/building-and-rendering-simcity-2013-r247/ [offset limiting]: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marcusstenbeck/tncg14-parallax-mapping/master/documents/Parallax%20Mapping%20with%20Offset%20Limiting%20-%20A%20Per-Pixel%20Approximation%20of%20Uneven%20Surfaces.pdf [gltf]: https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glTF/pull/2196 [qpm]: https://www.gamedevs.org/uploads/quadtree-displacement-mapping-with-height-blending.pdf --- ## Changelog - Add a `depth_map` field to the `StandardMaterial`, it is a grayscale image where white represents bottom and black the top. If `depth_map` is set, bevy's pbr shader will use it to do [parallax mapping] to give an increased feel of depth to the material. This is similar to a displacement map, but with infinite precision at fairly low cost. - The fields `parallax_mapping_method`, `parallax_depth_scale` and `max_parallax_layer_count` allow finer grained control over the behavior of the parallax shader. - Add the `parallax_mapping` example to show off the effect.

Send emissive color to uniform as linear instead of sRGB (#7897)
This produces more accurate results for the `EmissiveStrengthTest` glTF test case. (Requires manually setting the emission, for now) Before: <img width="1392" alt="Screenshot 2023-03-04 at 18 21 25" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/418473/222929455-c7363d52-7133-4d4e-9d6a-562098f6bbe8.png"> After: <img width="1392" alt="Screenshot 2023-03-04 at 18 20 57" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/418473/222929454-3ea20ecb-0773-4aad-978c-3832353b6871.png"> Tagging @JMS55 as a co-author, since this fix is based on their experiments with emission. # Objective - Have more accurate results for the `EmissiveStrengthTest` glTF test case. ## Solution - Make sure we send the emissive color as linear instead of sRGB. --- ## Changelog - Emission strength is now correctly interpreted by the `StandardMaterial` as linear instead of sRGB. ## Migration Guide - If you have previously manually specified emissive values with `Color::rgb()` and would like to retain the old visual results, you must now use `Color::rgb_linear()` instead; - If you have previously manually specified emissive values with `Color::rgb_linear()` and would like to retain the old visual results, you'll need to apply a one-time gamma calculation to your channels manually to get the _actual_ linear RGB value: - For channel values greater than `0.0031308`, use `(1.055 * value.powf(1.0 / 2.4)) - 0.055`; - For channel values lower than or equal to `0.0031308`, use `value * 12.92`; - Otherwise, the results should now be more consistent with other tools/engines. |

Change standard material defaults and update docs (#7664)
# Objective Standard material defaults are currently strange, and the docs are wrong re: metallic. ## Solution Change the defaults to be similar to [Godot](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/62756). --- ## Changelog #### Changed - `StandardMaterial` now defaults to a dielectric material (0.0 `metallic`) with 0.5 `perceptual_roughness`. ## Migration Guide `StandardMaterial`'s default have now changed to be a fully dielectric material with medium roughness. If you want to use the old defaults, you can set `perceptual_roughness = 0.089` and `metallic = 0.01` (though metallic should generally only be set to 0.0 or 1.0). |

Add depth and normal prepass (#6284)
# Objective - Add a configurable prepass - A depth prepass is useful for various shader effects and to reduce overdraw. It can be expansive depending on the scene so it's important to be able to disable it if you don't need any effects that uses it or don't suffer from excessive overdraw. - The goal is to eventually use it for things like TAA, Ambient Occlusion, SSR and various other techniques that can benefit from having a prepass. ## Solution The prepass node is inserted before the main pass. It runs for each `Camera3d` with a prepass component (`DepthPrepass`, `NormalPrepass`). The presence of one of those components is used to determine which textures are generated in the prepass. When any prepass is enabled, the depth buffer generated will be used by the main pass to reduce overdraw. The prepass runs for each `Material` created with the `MaterialPlugin::prepass_enabled` option set to `true`. You can overload the shader used by the prepass by using `Material::prepass_vertex_shader()` and/or `Material::prepass_fragment_shader()`. It will also use the `Material::specialize()` for more advanced use cases. It is enabled by default on all materials. The prepass works on opaque materials and materials using an alpha mask. Transparent materials are ignored. The `StandardMaterial` overloads the prepass fragment shader to support alpha mask and normal maps. --- ## Changelog - Add a new `PrepassNode` that runs before the main pass - Add a `PrepassPlugin` to extract/prepare/queue the necessary data - Add a `DepthPrepass` and `NormalPrepass` component to control which textures will be created by the prepass and available in later passes. - Add a new `prepass_enabled` flag to the `MaterialPlugin` that will control if a material uses the prepass or not. - Add a new `prepass_enabled` flag to the `PbrPlugin` to control if the StandardMaterial uses the prepass. Currently defaults to false. - Add `Material::prepass_vertex_shader()` and `Material::prepass_fragment_shader()` to control the prepass from the `Material` ## Notes In bevy's sample 3d scene, the performance is actually worse when enabling the prepass, but on more complex scenes the performance is generally better. I would like more testing on this, but @DGriffin91 has reported a very noticeable improvements in some scenes. The prepass is also used by @JMS55 for TAA and GTAO discord thread: <https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/1011624228627419187> This PR was built on top of the work of multiple people Co-Authored-By: @superdump Co-Authored-By: @robtfm Co-Authored-By: @JMS55 Co-authored-by: Charles <IceSentry@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: JMS55 <47158642+JMS55@users.noreply.github.com> |

Better Materials: AsBindGroup trait and derive, simpler Material trait (#5053)
# Objective This PR reworks Bevy's Material system, making the user experience of defining Materials _much_ nicer. Bevy's previous material system leaves a lot to be desired: * Materials require manually implementing the `RenderAsset` trait, which involves manually generating the bind group, handling gpu buffer data transfer, looking up image textures, etc. Even the simplest single-texture material involves writing ~80 unnecessary lines of code. This was never the long term plan. * There are two material traits, which is confusing, hard to document, and often redundant: `Material` and `SpecializedMaterial`. `Material` implicitly implements `SpecializedMaterial`, and `SpecializedMaterial` is used in most high level apis to support both use cases. Most users shouldn't need to think about specialization at all (I consider it a "power-user tool"), so the fact that `SpecializedMaterial` is front-and-center in our apis is a miss. * Implementing either material trait involves a lot of "type soup". The "prepared asset" parameter is particularly heinous: `&<Self as RenderAsset>::PreparedAsset`. Defining vertex and fragment shaders is also more verbose than it needs to be. ## Solution Say hello to the new `Material` system: ```rust #[derive(AsBindGroup, TypeUuid, Debug, Clone)] #[uuid = "f690fdae-d598-45ab-8225-97e2a3f056e0"] pub struct CoolMaterial { #[uniform(0)] color: Color, #[texture(1)] #[sampler(2)] color_texture: Handle<Image>, } impl Material for CoolMaterial { fn fragment_shader() -> ShaderRef { "cool_material.wgsl".into() } } ``` Thats it! This same material would have required [~80 lines of complicated "type heavy" code](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/blob/v0.7.0/examples/shader/shader_material.rs) in the old Material system. Now it is just 14 lines of simple, readable code. This is thanks to a new consolidated `Material` trait and the new `AsBindGroup` trait / derive. ### The new `Material` trait The old "split" `Material` and `SpecializedMaterial` traits have been removed in favor of a new consolidated `Material` trait. All of the functions on the trait are optional. The difficulty of implementing `Material` has been reduced by simplifying dataflow and removing type complexity: ```rust // Old impl Material for CustomMaterial { fn fragment_shader(asset_server: &AssetServer) -> Option<Handle<Shader>> { Some(asset_server.load("custom_material.wgsl")) } fn alpha_mode(render_asset: &<Self as RenderAsset>::PreparedAsset) -> AlphaMode { render_asset.alpha_mode } } // New impl Material for CustomMaterial { fn fragment_shader() -> ShaderRef { "custom_material.wgsl".into() } fn alpha_mode(&self) -> AlphaMode { self.alpha_mode } } ``` Specialization is still supported, but it is hidden by default under the `specialize()` function (more on this later). ### The `AsBindGroup` trait / derive The `Material` trait now requires the `AsBindGroup` derive. This can be implemented manually relatively easily, but deriving it will almost always be preferable. Field attributes like `uniform` and `texture` are used to define which fields should be bindings, what their binding type is, and what index they should be bound at: ```rust #[derive(AsBindGroup)] struct CoolMaterial { #[uniform(0)] color: Color, #[texture(1)] #[sampler(2)] color_texture: Handle<Image>, } ``` In WGSL shaders, the binding looks like this: ```wgsl struct CoolMaterial { color: vec4<f32>; }; [[group(1), binding(0)]] var<uniform> material: CoolMaterial; [[group(1), binding(1)]] var color_texture: texture_2d<f32>; [[group(1), binding(2)]] var color_sampler: sampler; ``` Note that the "group" index is determined by the usage context. It is not defined in `AsBindGroup`. Bevy material bind groups are bound to group 1. The following field-level attributes are supported: * `uniform(BINDING_INDEX)` * The field will be converted to a shader-compatible type using the `ShaderType` trait, written to a `Buffer`, and bound as a uniform. It can also be derived for custom structs. * `texture(BINDING_INDEX)` * This field's `Handle<Image>` will be used to look up the matching `Texture` gpu resource, which will be bound as a texture in shaders. The field will be assumed to implement `Into<Option<Handle<Image>>>`. In practice, most fields should be a `Handle<Image>` or `Option<Handle<Image>>`. If the value of an `Option<Handle<Image>>` is `None`, the new `FallbackImage` resource will be used instead. This attribute can be used in conjunction with a `sampler` binding attribute (with a different binding index). * `sampler(BINDING_INDEX)` * Behaves exactly like the `texture` attribute, but sets the Image's sampler binding instead of the texture. Note that fields without field-level binding attributes will be ignored. ```rust #[derive(AsBindGroup)] struct CoolMaterial { #[uniform(0)] color: Color, this_field_is_ignored: String, } ``` As mentioned above, `Option<Handle<Image>>` is also supported: ```rust #[derive(AsBindGroup)] struct CoolMaterial { #[uniform(0)] color: Color, #[texture(1)] #[sampler(2)] color_texture: Option<Handle<Image>>, } ``` This is useful if you want a texture to be optional. When the value is `None`, the `FallbackImage` will be used for the binding instead, which defaults to "pure white". Field uniforms with the same binding index will be combined into a single binding: ```rust #[derive(AsBindGroup)] struct CoolMaterial { #[uniform(0)] color: Color, #[uniform(0)] roughness: f32, } ``` In WGSL shaders, the binding would look like this: ```wgsl struct CoolMaterial { color: vec4<f32>; roughness: f32; }; [[group(1), binding(0)]] var<uniform> material: CoolMaterial; ``` Some less common scenarios will require "struct-level" attributes. These are the currently supported struct-level attributes: * `uniform(BINDING_INDEX, ConvertedShaderType)` * Similar to the field-level `uniform` attribute, but instead the entire `AsBindGroup` value is converted to `ConvertedShaderType`, which must implement `ShaderType`. This is useful if more complicated conversion logic is required. * `bind_group_data(DataType)` * The `AsBindGroup` type will be converted to some `DataType` using `Into<DataType>` and stored as `AsBindGroup::Data` as part of the `AsBindGroup::as_bind_group` call. This is useful if data needs to be stored alongside the generated bind group, such as a unique identifier for a material's bind group. The most common use case for this attribute is "shader pipeline specialization". The previous `CoolMaterial` example illustrating "combining multiple field-level uniform attributes with the same binding index" can also be equivalently represented with a single struct-level uniform attribute: ```rust #[derive(AsBindGroup)] #[uniform(0, CoolMaterialUniform)] struct CoolMaterial { color: Color, roughness: f32, } #[derive(ShaderType)] struct CoolMaterialUniform { color: Color, roughness: f32, } impl From<&CoolMaterial> for CoolMaterialUniform { fn from(material: &CoolMaterial) -> CoolMaterialUniform { CoolMaterialUniform { color: material.color, roughness: material.roughness, } } } ``` ### Material Specialization Material shader specialization is now _much_ simpler: ```rust #[derive(AsBindGroup, TypeUuid, Debug, Clone)] #[uuid = "f690fdae-d598-45ab-8225-97e2a3f056e0"] #[bind_group_data(CoolMaterialKey)] struct CoolMaterial { #[uniform(0)] color: Color, is_red: bool, } #[derive(Copy, Clone, Hash, Eq, PartialEq)] struct CoolMaterialKey { is_red: bool, } impl From<&CoolMaterial> for CoolMaterialKey { fn from(material: &CoolMaterial) -> CoolMaterialKey { CoolMaterialKey { is_red: material.is_red, } } } impl Material for CoolMaterial { fn fragment_shader() -> ShaderRef { "cool_material.wgsl".into() } fn specialize( pipeline: &MaterialPipeline<Self>, descriptor: &mut RenderPipelineDescriptor, layout: &MeshVertexBufferLayout, key: MaterialPipelineKey<Self>, ) -> Result<(), SpecializedMeshPipelineError> { if key.bind_group_data.is_red { let fragment = descriptor.fragment.as_mut().unwrap(); fragment.shader_defs.push("IS_RED".to_string()); } Ok(()) } } ``` Setting `bind_group_data` is not required for specialization (it defaults to `()`). Scenarios like "custom vertex attributes" also benefit from this system: ```rust impl Material for CustomMaterial { fn vertex_shader() -> ShaderRef { "custom_material.wgsl".into() } fn fragment_shader() -> ShaderRef { "custom_material.wgsl".into() } fn specialize( pipeline: &MaterialPipeline<Self>, descriptor: &mut RenderPipelineDescriptor, layout: &MeshVertexBufferLayout, key: MaterialPipelineKey<Self>, ) -> Result<(), SpecializedMeshPipelineError> { let vertex_layout = layout.get_layout(&[ Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_POSITION.at_shader_location(0), ATTRIBUTE_BLEND_COLOR.at_shader_location(1), ])?; descriptor.vertex.buffers = vec![vertex_layout]; Ok(()) } } ``` ### Ported `StandardMaterial` to the new `Material` system Bevy's built-in PBR material uses the new Material system (including the AsBindGroup derive): ```rust #[derive(AsBindGroup, Debug, Clone, TypeUuid)] #[uuid = "7494888b-c082-457b-aacf-517228cc0c22"] #[bind_group_data(StandardMaterialKey)] #[uniform(0, StandardMaterialUniform)] pub struct StandardMaterial { pub base_color: Color, #[texture(1)] #[sampler(2)] pub base_color_texture: Option<Handle<Image>>, /* other fields omitted for brevity */ ``` ### Ported Bevy examples to the new `Material` system The overall complexity of Bevy's "custom shader examples" has gone down significantly. Take a look at the diffs if you want a dopamine spike. Please note that while this PR has a net increase in "lines of code", most of those extra lines come from added documentation. There is a significant reduction in the overall complexity of the code (even accounting for the new derive logic). --- ## Changelog ### Added * `AsBindGroup` trait and derive, which make it much easier to transfer data to the gpu and generate bind groups for a given type. ### Changed * The old `Material` and `SpecializedMaterial` traits have been replaced by a consolidated (much simpler) `Material` trait. Materials no longer implement `RenderAsset`. * `StandardMaterial` was ported to the new material system. There are no user-facing api changes to the `StandardMaterial` struct api, but it now implements `AsBindGroup` and `Material` instead of `RenderAsset` and `SpecializedMaterial`. ## Migration Guide The Material system has been reworked to be much simpler. We've removed a lot of boilerplate with the new `AsBindGroup` derive and the `Material` trait is simpler as well! ### Bevy 0.7 (old) ```rust #[derive(Debug, Clone, TypeUuid)] #[uuid = "f690fdae-d598-45ab-8225-97e2a3f056e0"] pub struct CustomMaterial { color: Color, color_texture: Handle<Image>, } #[derive(Clone)] pub struct GpuCustomMaterial { _buffer: Buffer, bind_group: BindGroup, } impl RenderAsset for CustomMaterial { type ExtractedAsset = CustomMaterial; type PreparedAsset = GpuCustomMaterial; type Param = (SRes<RenderDevice>, SRes<MaterialPipeline<Self>>); fn extract_asset(&self) -> Self::ExtractedAsset { self.clone() } fn prepare_asset( extracted_asset: Self::ExtractedAsset, (render_device, material_pipeline): &mut SystemParamItem<Self::Param>, ) -> Result<Self::PreparedAsset, PrepareAssetError<Self::ExtractedAsset>> { let color = Vec4::from_slice(&extracted_asset.color.as_linear_rgba_f32()); let byte_buffer = [0u8; Vec4::SIZE.get() as usize]; let mut buffer = encase::UniformBuffer::new(byte_buffer); buffer.write(&color).unwrap(); let buffer = render_device.create_buffer_with_data(&BufferInitDescriptor { contents: buffer.as_ref(), label: None, usage: BufferUsages::UNIFORM | BufferUsages::COPY_DST, }); let (texture_view, texture_sampler) = if let Some(result) = material_pipeline .mesh_pipeline .get_image_texture(gpu_images, &Some(extracted_asset.color_texture.clone())) { result } else { return Err(PrepareAssetError::RetryNextUpdate(extracted_asset)); }; let bind_group = render_device.create_bind_group(&BindGroupDescriptor { entries: &[ BindGroupEntry { binding: 0, resource: buffer.as_entire_binding(), }, BindGroupEntry { binding: 0, resource: BindingResource::TextureView(texture_view), }, BindGroupEntry { binding: 1, resource: BindingResource::Sampler(texture_sampler), }, ], label: None, layout: &material_pipeline.material_layout, }); Ok(GpuCustomMaterial { _buffer: buffer, bind_group, }) } } impl Material for CustomMaterial { fn fragment_shader(asset_server: &AssetServer) -> Option<Handle<Shader>> { Some(asset_server.load("custom_material.wgsl")) } fn bind_group(render_asset: &<Self as RenderAsset>::PreparedAsset) -> &BindGroup { &render_asset.bind_group } fn bind_group_layout(render_device: &RenderDevice) -> BindGroupLayout { render_device.create_bind_group_layout(&BindGroupLayoutDescriptor { entries: &[ BindGroupLayoutEntry { binding: 0, visibility: ShaderStages::FRAGMENT, ty: BindingType::Buffer { ty: BufferBindingType::Uniform, has_dynamic_offset: false, min_binding_size: Some(Vec4::min_size()), }, count: None, }, BindGroupLayoutEntry { binding: 1, visibility: ShaderStages::FRAGMENT, ty: BindingType::Texture { multisampled: false, sample_type: TextureSampleType::Float { filterable: true }, view_dimension: TextureViewDimension::D2Array, }, count: None, }, BindGroupLayoutEntry { binding: 2, visibility: ShaderStages::FRAGMENT, ty: BindingType::Sampler(SamplerBindingType::Filtering), count: None, }, ], label: None, }) } } ``` ### Bevy 0.8 (new) ```rust impl Material for CustomMaterial { fn fragment_shader() -> ShaderRef { "custom_material.wgsl".into() } } #[derive(AsBindGroup, TypeUuid, Debug, Clone)] #[uuid = "f690fdae-d598-45ab-8225-97e2a3f056e0"] pub struct CustomMaterial { #[uniform(0)] color: Color, #[texture(1)] #[sampler(2)] color_texture: Handle<Image>, } ``` ## Future Work * Add support for more binding types (cubemaps, buffers, etc). This PR intentionally includes a bare minimum number of binding types to keep "reviewability" in check. * Consider optionally eliding binding indices using binding names. `AsBindGroup` could pass in (optional?) reflection info as a "hint". * This would make it possible for the derive to do this: ```rust #[derive(AsBindGroup)] pub struct CustomMaterial { #[uniform] color: Color, #[texture] #[sampler] color_texture: Option<Handle<Image>>, alpha_mode: AlphaMode, } ``` * Or this ```rust #[derive(AsBindGroup)] pub struct CustomMaterial { #[binding] color: Color, #[binding] color_texture: Option<Handle<Image>>, alpha_mode: AlphaMode, } ``` * Or even this (if we flip to "include bindings by default") ```rust #[derive(AsBindGroup)] pub struct CustomMaterial { color: Color, color_texture: Option<Handle<Image>>, #[binding(ignore)] alpha_mode: AlphaMode, } ``` * If we add the option to define custom draw functions for materials (which could be done in a type-erased way), I think that would be enough to support extra non-material bindings. Worth considering! |

set alpha_mode based on alpha value (#4658)
# Objective - When spawning a sprite the alpha is used for transparency, but when using the `Color::into()` implementation to spawn a `StandardMaterial`, the alpha is ignored. - Pretty much everytime I want to make something transparent I started with a `Color::rgb().into()` and I'm always surprised that it doesn't work when changing it to `Color::rgba().into()` - It's possible there's an issue with this approach I am not thinking of, but I'm not sure what's the point of setting an alpha value without the goal of making a color transparent. ## Solution - Set the alpha_mode to AlphaMode::Blend when the alpha is not the default value. --- ## Migration Guide This is not a breaking change, but it can easily be migrated to reduce boilerplate ```rust commands.spawn_bundle(PbrBundle { mesh: meshes.add(shape::Cube::default().into()), material: materials.add(StandardMaterial { base_color: Color::rgba(1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.75), alpha_mode: AlphaMode::Blend, ..default() }), ..default() }); // becomes commands.spawn_bundle(PbrBundle { mesh: meshes.add(shape::Cube::default().into()), material: materials.add(Color::rgba(1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.75).into()), ..default() }); ``` Co-authored-by: Charles <IceSentry@users.noreply.github.com> |

Use storage buffers for clustered forward point lights (#3989)
# Objective - Make use of storage buffers, where they are available, for clustered forward bindings to support far more point lights in a scene - Fixes #3605 - Based on top of #4079 This branch on an M1 Max can keep 60fps with about 2150 point lights of radius 1m in the Sponza scene where I've been testing. The bottleneck is mostly assigning lights to clusters which grows faster than linearly (I think 1000 lights was about 1.5ms and 5000 was 7.5ms). I have seen papers and presentations leveraging compute shaders that can get this up to over 1 million. That said, I think any further optimisations should probably be done in a separate PR. ## Solution - Add `RenderDevice` to the `Material` and `SpecializedMaterial` trait `::key()` functions to allow setting flags on the keys depending on feature/limit availability - Make `GpuPointLights` and `ViewClusterBuffers` into enums containing `UniformVec` and `StorageBuffer` variants. Implement the necessary API on them to make usage the same for both cases, and the only difference is at initialisation time. - Appropriate shader defs in the shader code to handle the two cases ## Context on some decisions / open questions - I'm using `max_storage_buffers_per_shader_stage >= 3` as a check to see if storage buffers are supported. I was thinking about diving into 'binding resource management' but it feels like we don't have enough use cases to understand the problem yet, and it is mostly a separate concern to this PR, so I think it should be handled separately. - Should `ViewClusterBuffers` and `ViewClusterBindings` be merged, duplicating the count variables into the enum variants?

KTX2/DDS/.basis compressed texture support (#3884)
# Objective - Support compressed textures including 'universal' formats (ETC1S, UASTC) and transcoding of them to - Support `.dds`, `.ktx2`, and `.basis` files ## Solution - Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/3608 Look there for more details. - Note that the functionality is all enabled through non-default features. If it is desirable to enable some by default, I can do that. - The `basis-universal` crate, used for `.basis` file support and for transcoding, is built on bindings against a C++ library. It's not feasible to rewrite in Rust in a short amount of time. There are no Rust alternatives of which I am aware and it's specialised code. In its current state it doesn't support the wasm target, but I don't know for sure. However, it is possible to build the upstream C++ library with emscripten, so there is perhaps a way to add support for web too with some shenanigans. - There's no support for transcoding from BasisLZ/ETC1S in KTX2 files as it was quite non-trivial to implement and didn't feel important given people could use `.basis` files for ETC1S. |

StandardMaterial: expose a cull_mode option (#3982)
This makes it possible for materials to configure front or back face culling, or disable culling. Initially I looked at specializing the Mesh which currently controls this state but conceptually it seems more appropriate to control this at the material level, not the mesh level. _Just for reference this also seems to be consistent with Unity where materials/shaders can configure the culling mode between front/back/off - as opposed to configuring any culling state when importing a mesh._ After some archaeology, trying to understand how this might relate to the existing 'double_sided' option, it was determined that double_sided is a more high level lighting option originally from Filament that will cause the normals for back faces to be flipped. For sake of avoiding complexity, but keeping control this currently keeps the options orthogonal, and adds some clarifying documentation for `double_sided`. This won't affect any existing apps since there hasn't been a way to disable backface culling up until now, so the option was essentially redundant. double_sided support could potentially be updated to imply disabling of backface culling. For reference https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/3734/commits also looks at exposing cull mode control. I think the main difference here is that this patch handles RenderPipelineDescriptor specialization directly within the StandardMaterial implementation instead of communicating info back to the Mesh via the `queue_material_meshes` system. With the way material.rs builds up the final RenderPipelineDescriptor first by calling specialize for the MeshPipeline followed by specialize for the material then it seems like we have a natural place to override anything in the descriptor that's first configured for the mesh state. |

Mesh vertex buffer layouts (#3959)
This PR makes a number of changes to how meshes and vertex attributes are handled, which the goal of enabling easy and flexible custom vertex attributes: * Reworks the `Mesh` type to use the newly added `VertexAttribute` internally * `VertexAttribute` defines the name, a unique `VertexAttributeId`, and a `VertexFormat` * `VertexAttributeId` is used to produce consistent sort orders for vertex buffer generation, replacing the more expensive and often surprising "name based sorting" * Meshes can be used to generate a `MeshVertexBufferLayout`, which defines the layout of the gpu buffer produced by the mesh. `MeshVertexBufferLayouts` can then be used to generate actual `VertexBufferLayouts` according to the requirements of a specific pipeline. This decoupling of "mesh layout" vs "pipeline vertex buffer layout" is what enables custom attributes. We don't need to standardize _mesh layouts_ or contort meshes to meet the needs of a specific pipeline. As long as the mesh has what the pipeline needs, it will work transparently. * Mesh-based pipelines now specialize on `&MeshVertexBufferLayout` via the new `SpecializedMeshPipeline` trait (which behaves like `SpecializedPipeline`, but adds `&MeshVertexBufferLayout`). The integrity of the pipeline cache is maintained because the `MeshVertexBufferLayout` is treated as part of the key (which is fully abstracted from implementers of the trait ... no need to add any additional info to the specialization key). * Hashing `MeshVertexBufferLayout` is too expensive to do for every entity, every frame. To make this scalable, I added a generalized "pre-hashing" solution to `bevy_utils`: `Hashed<T>` keys and `PreHashMap<K, V>` (which uses `Hashed<T>` internally) . Why didn't I just do the quick and dirty in-place "pre-compute hash and use that u64 as a key in a hashmap" that we've done in the past? Because its wrong! Hashes by themselves aren't enough because two different values can produce the same hash. Re-hashing a hash is even worse! I decided to build a generalized solution because this pattern has come up in the past and we've chosen to do the wrong thing. Now we can do the right thing! This did unfortunately require pulling in `hashbrown` and using that in `bevy_utils`, because avoiding re-hashes requires the `raw_entry_mut` api, which isn't stabilized yet (and may never be ... `entry_ref` has favor now, but also isn't available yet). If std's HashMap ever provides the tools we need, we can move back to that. Note that adding `hashbrown` doesn't increase our dependency count because it was already in our tree. I will probably break these changes out into their own PR. * Specializing on `MeshVertexBufferLayout` has one non-obvious behavior: it can produce identical pipelines for two different MeshVertexBufferLayouts. To optimize the number of active pipelines / reduce re-binds while drawing, I de-duplicate pipelines post-specialization using the final `VertexBufferLayout` as the key. For example, consider a pipeline that needs the layout `(position, normal)` and is specialized using two meshes: `(position, normal, uv)` and `(position, normal, other_vec2)`. If both of these meshes result in `(position, normal)` specializations, we can use the same pipeline! Now we do. Cool! To briefly illustrate, this is what the relevant section of `MeshPipeline`'s specialization code looks like now: ```rust impl SpecializedMeshPipeline for MeshPipeline { type Key = MeshPipelineKey; fn specialize( &self, key: Self::Key, layout: &MeshVertexBufferLayout, ) -> RenderPipelineDescriptor { let mut vertex_attributes = vec![ Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_POSITION.at_shader_location(0), Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL.at_shader_location(1), Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_UV_0.at_shader_location(2), ]; let mut shader_defs = Vec::new(); if layout.contains(Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_TANGENT) { shader_defs.push(String::from("VERTEX_TANGENTS")); vertex_attributes.push(Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_TANGENT.at_shader_location(3)); } let vertex_buffer_layout = layout .get_layout(&vertex_attributes) .expect("Mesh is missing a vertex attribute"); ``` Notice that this is _much_ simpler than it was before. And now any mesh with any layout can be used with this pipeline, provided it has vertex postions, normals, and uvs. We even got to remove `HAS_TANGENTS` from MeshPipelineKey and `has_tangents` from `GpuMesh`, because that information is redundant with `MeshVertexBufferLayout`. This is still a draft because I still need to: * Add more docs * Experiment with adding error handling to mesh pipeline specialization (which would print errors at runtime when a mesh is missing a vertex attribute required by a pipeline). If it doesn't tank perf, we'll keep it. * Consider breaking out the PreHash / hashbrown changes into a separate PR. * Add an example illustrating this change * Verify that the "mesh-specialized pipeline de-duplication code" works properly Please dont yell at me for not doing these things yet :) Just trying to get this in peoples' hands asap.

Materials and MaterialPlugin (#3428)
This adds "high level" `Material` and `SpecializedMaterial` traits, which can be used with a `MaterialPlugin<T: SpecializedMaterial>`. `MaterialPlugin` automatically registers the appropriate resources, draw functions, and queue systems. The `Material` trait is simpler, and should cover most use cases. `SpecializedMaterial` is like `Material`, but it also requires defining a "specialization key" (see #3031). `Material` has a trivial blanket impl of `SpecializedMaterial`, which allows us to use the same types + functions for both. This makes defining custom 3d materials much simpler (see the `shader_material` example diff) and ensures consistent behavior across all 3d materials (both built in and custom). I ported the built in `StandardMaterial` to `MaterialPlugin`. There is also a new `MaterialMeshBundle<T: SpecializedMaterial>`, which `PbrBundle` aliases to. |
