In the move to OpenGL 3.3 core profile, we drop support for compatibility profile and older versions.
OpenSubdiv was the only user; I'll update OSD next.
Now we always use GLSL 3.3, AKA #version 330. Most of the extensions we used are built into OpenGL 3.3 so we don't need them anymore.
Cleaned up comments related to GLSL version.
Part of T49012
These are always supported now
- instancing as of GL 3.1
- geometry shaders as of GL 3.2
The change to rna_scene.c could use some cleanup, since we don't really need a runtime query function.
The "Modern Viewport" was an option in the Viewport panel that would use
the new fancy wire frame code and some depth debugging functionality.
This was introduced as a quick and dirty way to get the new drawing
system showing in the viewport.
Overtime we built a complete Draw Manager system, leaving this original
approach deprecated which adds clutter to Blender code since it would be
removed sooner or later.
Note: The new fancy wireframes and related shaders (white out other
objects) are still in Blender code, though you can't use them anymore.
If we are to have any of those drawing options they should be integrated
in the new draw manager, instead of integrated in the old drawing
pipeline as it was originally coded.
It works with Cycles and Blender Internal for now.
The Blender Internal support will disappear, but we should be able to
integrate it with the Draw manager and use it with Clay, Eevee, ...
Mainly adding 'wire' suffix to wire/distance drawing func and shader.
Also, match wire vertex shader behavior with solid one regarding
head/tail only drawing (i.e. alwas expect head bone mat, never tail one,
and assume that if a radius is negative, then we only draw on the other
end of the bone).
Envelope bones are now pretty much identical to old drawing code.
Note that currently new DwM drawing code does not seem to care about
wire/solid drawing modes at all, guess this is still TODO... For now we
hence just get both wire and solid for envelope bones, this can be
refined later.
This is not complete, it does not implement 3D solid drawing of
envelope bones. 2D wire is hence always drawn for now.
Some notes:
I did not try to implement the 'capsule' approach suggested by @fclem, because:
1. I spent enough time on this already, and finally got something working.
2. I managed to get rid of geometry shader completely.
3. Current approach allows us to use same shader for
distance outline and envelope wire.
It's working fine, except for one glitch - superpositions of envelope
outlines do not work as expected, not sure what's wrong here, tried to
disable zbuff, enable GL_BLEND, no luck so far...
I think we need our own 'background' drawpass to get them working (also
to avoid them drawing over the wire lines).
