Change 3310176 on 2017/02/17 by Chris.Bunner
Merging CL 3233886: AMD HDR support (requires r.AMDSupportsHDRDisplayOutput=1 in ini).
Update to AGS 5.0.5.
Partial code tidy up.
Change 3310187 on 2017/02/17 by Chris.Bunner
Preserve constant expressions rather than always casting after translating a material attribute. Losing the notion of constant means we can't correctly detect used properties and falsely enable e.g. PDO. Happened because of the incorrect component masks in BreakMaterialNodes which then had to be downcast to the correct type which is done as an inline fragment rather than swizzle expression.
#jira UE-41594
Change 3310215 on 2017/02/17 by Chris.Bunner
Prevent SpeedTree node compiling for skeletal meshes (not supported as uses more UV sets than available).

Preparing TM_Shadermodels map for automation
Change 3328222 on 2017/03/01 by Chris.Bunner
Prevent decals from drawing in separate translucency pass. Whilst user control and material relevance were already removed, if the flag was checked before being disabled (by swapping to decal domain) this was still being read in the render loop, now explicitly ignores decals.

[Copy] Changing movable skylight properties no longer affects static draw lists
Change 3333693 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy] Added 'r.AOListMeshDistanceFields' which dumps out mesh distance fields sorted by memory size, useful for directing content optimizations
Change 3333705 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy] Mesh distance fields are now 8 bit fixed point by default, but can be changed back to 16 bit floating piont with a project setting.
* 8 bit uses half memory but introduces error for thin surfaces or large meshes.
Change 3333721 on 2017/03/06 by David.Hill
DecalProxy:
Copy float FadeScreenSize to FDeferredDecalProxy for use in the render thread. This avoids pointer chasing to the UDecalComponent (game thread component).
Change 3333772 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy] Scene motion blur data is only updated for the main renderer frames. Fixes scene captures and planar reflections breaking object motion blur.
Change 3333790 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy] Mesh distance field generation uses Embree, for a 2.5x speedup

Change 3333822 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy] Moved mesh distance field code into MeshDistanceFieldUtilities.cpp
* Moved FMeshUtilities to its own header so the 8k line MeshUtilites.cpp file can be further split up

Non-editor compile fix
Change 3333836 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy] Workaround for gobal distance field volume textures being bloated by 4x on PS4 due to the recommended tiling modes. They now use a 2d tiling mode which avoids the bloat, saving 96Mb.
Change 3333843 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy] Added OcclusionExponent to skylight component
* Useful for brightening up indoors without losing contact shadows as MinOcclusion does

Change 3333857 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy] Clear light attenuation for local lights with a quad covering their screen extents
* Clearing the entire light attenuation buffer costs .1ms on PS4. This optimization lowers the minimum cost of a shadow casting light from .15ms -> .03ms.
* Shadowed lights in Fortnite with 25 lights 3.7ms -> 1.42ms on PS4
Change 3333860 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy] Flush deferred deletes when reallocating distance field atlas to reduce peak memory
Change 3333861 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy] Disable all distance field features on Intel cards as HD 4000 hangs in the RHICreateTexture3D call to allocate the large atlas
Change 3333869 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy] Volumetric Fog using a volume texture mapped to the camera frustum
* Volumetric fog can be enabled on an Exponential Height Fog component with additional controls
* Lights have a VolumetricScatteringIntensity
* New cvars r.VolumetricFog, r.VolumetricFog.GridPixelSize, r.VolumetricFog.GridSizeZ, r.VolumetricFog.DepthDistributionScale
* Lighting features supported:
* Directional light with CSM and a light function
* Point / spot lights without shadows / light functions / IES profiles
* Skylight with occlusion from distance fields
* Analytical height fog covers the view range past where the volumetric fog ends
* Temporal reprojection is used on the volumetric fog scattering and extinction to achieve stability
* Translucency integrates properly into volumetric fog
* Height fog StartDistance is not supported by volumetric fog and should be set to 0.
Change 3333894 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy] Initialize GDummyVolumetricFogGlobalDataUniformBuffer outside of parallel rendering
Change 3333902 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright

[Copy] Fixed volumetric fog trying to render light functions for a point light
Change 3333908 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy] Volumetric materials
* Added new material domain Volume, which can output Scattering, Absorption and Emissive. All properties are in world space densities.
* Particle systems using the Volume domain are voxelized based on their ParticlePosition and ParticleRadius
* Volumetric fog integration is now energy conservative - scattering is integrated against transmission over the depth of each slice.
* Added bOverrideLightColorsWithFogInscatteringColors to exponential height fog, which can be enabled to make Volumetric Fog match Height fog more closely
Change 3334134 on 2017/03/06 by Daniel.Wright
[Copy from Michael Trepka] Added Embree 2.14.0 and changed MeshUtilities to use it as this solves issues with Embree leaking TLS keys. UnrealLightmass is still using older Embree 2.7.0 until we can find time to properly test it with the new version. Also, invalidated distance field DDC to force it to rebuild with updated Embree.

* Forward lighting of local lights can be forced with 'r.VolumetricFog.InjectShadowedLightsSeparately 0'
* Shadowed lights come at a cost: 2.9ms for volumetric fog on 970 -> 4.2ms with shadowing

Line-break iterators will now avoid breaking words in Hangul
The default behavior for wrapping Hangul is to use Western-style wrapping (where words are kept as-is) rather than East Asian-style (where words are broken by syllables). This behavior can be controlled by the Localization.HangulTextWrappingMethod CVar in-case you were dependant on the old behavior, but since modern Hangul uses spaces, the per-word wrapping is preferred by native speakers.

#jira UE-38019
The Content Browser's View Options originally included both Engine and GameProject plugins only when clicking Show Plugin Content. Since there are quite a few Engine plugins, this produces quite a bit of content in the Folders panel. Most of the Engine plugins have classes or content that isn't really meant to be user-facing, so the experience of hunting for a game plugin-in's content is poor.
The new behavior is that GameProject plugins are controlled by the "View Plugin Content" option. In order to see the Engine plugins you'll need both Engine Content and Plugin Content checkboxes enabled. By default, the editor should enable the "View Plugin Content" checkbox since it should be limited to just the content in the game's Plugins folder.

Change 3185126 on 2016/11/03 by Shaun.Kime
Some of the plugin templates define Editor specific plugins. If created and a Standalone build is run, the application will attempt to link in editor libraries in game mode and will run into issues when you hit any key. The fix is to specify an Editor module description for these plugins.
Additionally, there appears to be a mismatch in pathing types when dealing with plugin path and GameDir. Plugin path is absolute and GameDir is relative by default. We check to see if the gameDir is a subset of the plugin path, but this fails due to the mismatch. The fix is to force both to be absolute (enforcing normalization of both paths as well).

UMG - Fixing some issues with HDPI mode in the widget designer.
Change 3185355 on 2016/11/03 by Nick.Darnell
UMG - Widget Component's Draw At Desired size now should also work correctly if it's in screenspace.
Change 3185510 on 2016/11/03 by Nick.Darnell
UMG - Restoring the ability of the Widget Component to directly recieve hardware input. The Widget Interaction Component is great for just about every interaction use case - the one it's not is when you actually want the 3D widgets to take focus, and to be able to be typed directly into by the user. The kind of situation where you might want to use them as a 3D menu, in a non-VR environment. By default - Widget Components will not behave in this manner, but you can now use the option bReceiveHardwareInput to enable the ability for Widget Components to function more like a widget in the screenspace of the viewport.
Slate - The scene viewport now correctly takes scale into account when drawing the 'software cursor', this fixes an issue with HDPI mode, and the cursor not being restored to the same location after moving a gizmo.
Change 3185514 on 2016/11/03 by Nick.Darnell
UMG - Fixing some HDPI mode problems with widget position calculation when projecting world to viewport / screen, absolute spaces.

UUnrealEdEngine::edactDeleteSelected calls out to FBlueprintEditorUtils::FindActorsThatReferenceActor. This checks the entire world for each actor to be deleted. When you have tens of thousands of actors in the world and are deleting tens of thousands of actors, this can take minutes. This change amortizes the cost of finding the actor references once for the world and for each actor to be deleted, we query the cached list of references. This brings the deletion time down to seconds.

Change 3188638 on 2016/11/07 by Shaun.Kime
Making the UI for adding/removing parameters in custom blueprint functions behave similarly to the struct creation dialog in the content browser. There are no longer "New" buttons at the bottom of the panel and the parameter moving controls have been moved onto the main parameter row instead of being nested inside the collapse panel. A tooltip will now let you know the full parameter name and type when you hover over the editable name field. Made the move up/down icons more legible by increasing contrast between the arrow and the light grey background.
#jira UE-38240
Change 3189056 on 2016/11/07 by Nick.Darnell
Core/Editor - UObject::IsAsset() now returns false if the outermost package is RF_Transient. Also updating the creation of the transient package to be RF_Transient. This makes it so transient packages created by UMG or some other editor for things like previewing a streamed in level instance, no longer show up in the content browser.
Change 3189147 on 2016/11/07 by Jamie.Dale

Change 3190159 on 2016/11/08 by Nick.Darnell
UMG - We no longer also take the platform DPI scale into account when applying UMG's UI scale. Since UMG already provides a DPI scaling system, compounding it with the native OSes produces undesirable results, since the DPI scale curve does not take into account some unknown platform scale set by a user.

#jira UE-31866 - Widget Blueprints will no longer experience compile issues when dragging widgets between the hierarchy views of different Widget Blueprints.
Change 3192365 on 2016/11/09 by Shaun.Kime
Adding support for MaterialParameterCollections to Slate UI objects. For reasons of Blueprint controls amongst other things, MPC's are owned by individual UWorlds and transferred over to their respective Scenes. Since we want the latest values from those in-UWorld representations, Slate needs to know about the Scene on the render thread to properly map the materials to their MPC inputs. This involved keeping Scene arrays synchronized between the game logic thread and render thread, and adding a Scene index field to each batched draw element in Slate. SceneViewports are now responsible for registering their associated Scenes with the SlateRenderer. Since RetainerBoxes also draw their content as well, they too need to register their Scenes.

Slate - Fixing the window reshaping logic to avoid work if we don't need to do it, rather than external calls attempting to do the check (poorly). This appears to fix the problem with popup menus being slightly off in size, creating scrollbars. This also prevents constant reshaping of windows, due to people performing the wrong checks over and over, because they were comparing against non-truncated or rounded values against truncated/rounded values.
Change 3194595 on 2016/11/11 by Nick.Darnell

Now allowing users to customize the Class Browser/Picker to filter out developer folders as well as hide internal use classes via INI settings. A ViewOptions button has been added to allow users to choose whether or not these filters are enabled.
By default, internal only classes will be hidden and you will be limited to your own developer folder.
Example change to DefaultEngine.ini or BaseEngine.ini to hide some classes as internal use
[/Script/ClassViewer.ClassViewerProjectSettings]
+InternalOnlyPaths=(Path="/Engine/VREditor")
+InternalOnlyClasses=/Script/VREditor.VREditorBaseUserWidget
The InternalOnlyPaths example will hide any classes in the VREditor folder or subfolders.
The InternalOnlyClasses example will hide any classes that derive from VREditorBaseUserWidget.
Both can be edited by the project settings UI so no manual INI tweaking is required. Please go to Project Settings->Class Viewer->Class Visibility Management

There's no problem if two objects have the same name, as long as they have different paths (except for classes). So now the code records object paths in a seperate set, and avoids reprocessing / and creating multiple redirectors for the same objects, instead of just using object name.

StaticMeshComponent's OverriddenLightMapRes current displays the value it was set to, even when the bOverrideLightMapRes is false. The behavior within UStaticMeshComponent::GetLightMapResolution is to use the LightMapResolution on the StaticMesh member instead when bOverrideLightMapRes is false. The UI was adjusted to reflect the more accurate behavior.

Added FGCObjectScopeGuard and TStrongObjectPtr as a convenient way to keep a UObject alive without having to add it to the root-set
Both use FGCObject internally to reference the object and keep it alive.
FGCObjectScopeGuard is designed to be lean and used as a guard for an existing pointer, whereas TStrongObjectPtr is more "full-fat" and designed to be a replacement for a raw-pointer.
You should prefer FGCObjectScopeGuard where possible. Also note that TStrongObjectPtr isn't supported by UHT/UPROPERTY as you should just use a raw-pointer in that case (it would do the same thing).

Updated User Defined Enum display names to use real FText instances so they can have stable keys
This avoids the issue where the FText display names were cached from an FString, resulting in them having a different identity each time they were re-cached, which lead to localization and deterministic cooking issues.
User Defined Enums no longer use meta-data to store their display names, and instead use a TMap in UUserDefinedEnum to map the raw enum entry name to its friendly display name. In addition to this, the enum editor has been updated to use STextPropertyEditableTextBox, which will keep the keys used by the display names stable where possible (allowing for delta-localization and historic tracking).

Adding experimental support for content hot-reloading
The underlying support for this is in CoreUObject (see ReloadPackage and ReloadPackages in UObjectGlobals.h/.cpp), with editor specific support being added via PackageTools::ReloadPackages, and also hooks registered with FCoreUObjectDelegates::OnPackageReloaded (eg, UEditorEngine::HandlePackageReloaded).
The basic workflow for package reloading is as follows:
1) The current package is renamed, and the RF_NewerVersionExists flag is added to it and all its sub-objects.
2) The new package is loaded. Should this fail the old package is renamed back, and the RF_NewerVersionExists flag is removed.
3) We generate a mapping between objects in the old package and objects in the new package (see UObject::BuildSubobjectMapping).
4) We enumerate every object in memory, and fix-up any serialized or ARO object pointers referencing something from the old package, to reference the equivalent object from the new package (or null if no object could be found).
5) We run a GC, and verify that the old package was purged (printing any lingering references if it wasn't).
For efficiency reasons package reloading may be run in batches (the editor uses batches of 500), as this allows package reloading to happen faster (as the reference fix-up and GC only happens once per-batch) at the cost of consuming more memory.
In-editor there is an experimental setting to enable content hot-reloading. When this is enabled the SCC operations in the Content Browser will use content hot-reloading, rather than attempt to unload the reload the package as separate operations (which often fails). In order to allow the external SCC program to overwrite the files on disk, the linkers are detached from any packages that will be replaced prior to invoking the internal SCC operation.

Added support for reroute nodes to the material editor. These nodes should function identically to their counterparts in Blueprints. A new UMaterialExpression, UMaterialExpressionReroute has been added. It inserts no HLSL code, and instead just moves along its input to find the real UMaterialExpression that it is ultimately bound to.
Since the material system serializes its data as UMaterialExpressions, a more generalized approach across graph types isn't available as only the visual UI layer is shared between blueprints and material graphs.
Also modified the material palette and popup material expression menu to allow for c++ based material name and description customization. If we choose to expand this, it would make the C++ material nodes more discoverable and understandable.
Manually pulled in CL 3200823 and 3208490 to get bugfixes around material attribute usage.
Adding an reroute node should function identically to Blueprints (ie double-click on connection to add or Utility\Add Reroute Node from palette). You should be able to add as many reroute nodes as you want in a chain. A reroute node that only has a connected output and not an input should behave as if there were no reroute node present (i.e. triggering constants on Add). It should be possible to use reroute nodes between any two supported node types if they are connectable in isolation. Where possible, we should show the same type mismatch errors that you'd see if connecting nodes directly (ie dragging a boolean constant into a reroute node connected to an Add should result in a Float/Bool mismatch). A reroute node is purely visual, it should have no impact on the final instruction count.
In the event that an incomplete reroute input was completed by dragging to an invalid type, I tried to guarantee that the compiler would generate the appropriate errors. This can happen because we only know the inputs to a given node in code. If a reroute node doesn't have an input, it does not know what type it should be. However, the compiler should still detect these bad cases and error out.

- ELocalizedTextCollapseMode::IdenticalPackageIdTextIdAndSource - Collapse texts with the same package ID, text identity (namespace + key), and source text (4.14 behavior).
- ELocalizedTextCollapseMode::IdenticalNamespaceAndSource - Collapse texts with the same namespace and source text (legacy pre-4.14 behavior).
The new default allows you to re-use the same text identity in different packages without having to translate the same text multiple times, and you can also now opt to get back to the legacy pre-4.14 behavior of collapsing all identical texts within the same namespace (in case you were reliant on that behavior).
You can change this setting via the Localization Dashboard, or add it to your gather configs as "LocalizedTextCollapseMode" (this needs to go into any configs that deal with exporting or importing PO files - the default if nothing is specified is "ELocalizedTextCollapseMode::IdenticalTextIdAndSource").

Change 3209340 on 2016/11/23 by Ben.Marsh
Convert UE4 codebase to an "include what you use" model - where every header just includes the dependencies it needs, rather than every source file including large monolithic headers like Engine.h and UnrealEd.h.
Measured full rebuild times around 2x faster using XGE on Windows, and improvements of 25% or more for incremental builds and full rebuilds on most other platforms.
* Every header now includes everything it needs to compile.
* There's a CoreMinimal.h header that gets you a set of ubiquitous types from Core (eg. FString, FName, TArray, FVector, etc...). Most headers now include this first.
* There's a CoreTypes.h header that sets up primitive UE4 types and build macros (int32, PLATFORM_WIN64, etc...). All headers in Core include this first, as does CoreMinimal.h.
* Every .cpp file includes its matching .h file first.
* This helps validate that each header is including everything it needs to compile.
* No engine code includes a monolithic header such as Engine.h or UnrealEd.h any more.
* You will get a warning if you try to include one of these from the engine. They still exist for compatibility with game projects and do not produce warnings when included there.
* There have only been minor changes to our internal games down to accommodate these changes. The intent is for this to be as seamless as possible.
* No engine code explicitly includes a precompiled header any more.
* We still use PCHs, but they're force-included on the compiler command line by UnrealBuildTool instead. This lets us tune what they contain without breaking any existing include dependencies.
* PCHs are generated by a tool to get a statistical amount of coverage for the source files using it, and I've seeded the new shared PCHs to contain any header included by > 15% of source files.
Tool used to generate this transform is at Engine\Source\Programs\IncludeTool.

DR - [UE-32613] - OpenGL used to have custom code in the compiler to modify the source so that the same data and matricies can be used as DirectX, unfortunately that causes precission problem.

We only tested Linux and Windows and therfore only default enable on those platforms.

Change 3163562 on 2016/10/14 by Mark.Satterthwaite
Tidy up and extend the Metal debugging options:
- Added rhi.Metal.BufferScribble which when enabled will fill freed buffer regions with 0xCD to help identify any areas where we are writing to a buffer while it is still being processed on the GPU.
- Added rhi.Metal.BufferZeroFill which will zero-fill newly allocated buffer regions before any other data is read/written. Useful for catching cases where we might be reading uninitialised memory.
- Added rhi.Metal.ResourcePurgeOnDelete which will purge the backing store of resources prior to releasing them back to the system or the respective pool. This will make any use-after-free conditions much more likely.
- Added rhi.Metal.ResourceDeferDeleteNumFrames to defer releasing resources to the system or the resource pool by the specified number of frames (in addition to the current policy of waiting for the current end of frame & command-buffer completion). Useful for tracking down resource lifetime errors.
- Fixed a number of bugs related to the modifications to vertex stream handling and addition of the SetShaderBytes API.
- Track the start & end of FRingBuffer ranges - it appeared that the ring-buffer usage was invalid but it was in fact only my assumptions about the range that needed to be scribbled for rhi.Metal.BufferScribble. There is still the possibility that command-buffers that are implicitly parallelised by the driver may cause the ring-buffer range tracking to go awry - but with our data dependencies and the separation of the async. compute context I don't believe this is likely.
- Fix up the "nometalv2" flag so that we can disable the features only available on iOS/tvOS-10/macOS-10.12 on newer devices to save having to reboot all the time.
- Fixed the flickering geometry when enabling rhi.Metal.RuntimeDebugLevel=4 which breaks render passes into separate command-buffers - the occlusion query was waiting on the wrong command buffer in this case.
