Sigh, back to getPass. I don't even know at this point. Basically now
that we came up with a half-solution for temp buffers, it makes sense to
apply this to passes as well, since we aren't going with the workstream
idea and temp passes are more convenient than retained passes.
It uses newPass instead of getPass. Temporary objects had lifetime
issues that were nearly impossible to solve. And normal objects are
easier to understand because they behave like all other LÖVR objects.
However, Pass commands are not retained from frame to frame. Pass
objects must be re-recorded before every submit, and must be reset
before being recorded again.
Pass objects now provide a natural place for render-pass-related info
like clears and texture handles. They also allow more information to be
precomputed which should reduce overhead a bit.
It is now possible to request a stencil buffer and antialiasing on the
window and headset textures, via conf.lua.
lovr.graphics.setBackground should instead set the clear color on the
window pass. Though we're still going to try to do spherical harmonics
in some capacity.
There are still major issues with OpenXR that are going to be ironed
out, and the desktop driver hasn't been converted over to the new
headset Pass system yet. So lovr.headset integration is a bit WIP.
OpenXR provides APIs to enumerate the supported refresh-rates, and
selecting a new refresh-rate. This patch adds two new APIs to the
lovr.headset module:
- lovr.headset.getDisplayFrequencies():
Returns a table containing the supported refresh-rates on
success; nil otherwise.
- lovr.headset.setDisplayFrequency(refreshRate:number):
Returns true on success, false otherwise.
Only the OpenXR backend has support for this feature and it is
gated by the "refreshRate" feature flag, similarly to what the
"getDisplayFrequency()" API does.
This adds the ability to load and animate a mesh for hand tracking on
the Oculus Quest. It is more or less identical to the current
functionality on the vrapi driver.
One key part of this change is that getPose in OpenXR will see if action
spaces are active before locating their spaces. This is due to some
behavior observed on the Oculus Quest with hand tracking where pose
actions for controllers would return invalid data with all of the
location flags erroneously set. The only way to detect and work around
this is to check the pose action state. When this happens, we fall back
to returning the pose of the wrist joint, which is where the Oculus hand
mesh wants to be drawn. In the event that both controllers and hand
tracking are active, the controller pose will be returned by getPose but
the wrist joint can still be accessed using getSkeleton.
Note that this does not yet include support for properly scaling the
hand mesh.
There are numerous opportunities for optimization here that may be
investigated in the future, though performance is well within an
acceptable range right now.
