Change 3045482 on 2016/07/11 by Zabir.Hoque

Change 3046088 on 2016/07/12 by Ben.Woodhouse
Live GPU stats
A non-hierarchical realtime high level GPU profiler with support for cumulative stat recording.
Stats are added with SCOPED_GPU_STAT macros, e.g. SCOPED_GPU_STAT(RHICmdList, Stat_GPU_Distortion)
The bulk of the files in this change are simply instrumentation for the renderer. The core changes are in SceneUtils.cpp/h and D3D11Query.cpp (this is the XB1/DX11X implementation of timestamp RHI queries, which was missing)
Note: this is currently disabled by default. Enable with the cvar r.gpustatsenabled
Tested on PC, XB1, PS4

UE-23925
Clamping noise tessellation for beams at a high but sensible value; also making sure during beam index buffer building that we never get over 2^16 indices; this is a bit hokey, but there are so many variables that can influence triangle/index count, that this is the only way to be sure (short of nuking the entire site from orbit).
Change 3050409 on 2016/07/14 by Olaf.Piesche

Refactor Landscape Select / Mask tools so that they don't share a common brush stroke class
- they had no common code, there was just a massive if statement in there selecting between the two behaviours

#jira UE-32415
Change 3032336 on 2016/06/29 by Gareth.Martin
Fixed a long-standing issue with undo/redo nulling lazy pointers
- Two objects are created which reference each other with lazy object pointers (e.g. ULandscapeComponent and ULandscapeHeightfieldCollisionComponent)
- Undo
- During undo, the first object saves its state and restores itself to a deleted (pendingkill) state
- the second object then tries to save its state, but as the other object is marked pending kill it fails to resolve its lazy ptr and saves null instead
- Redo
- Lazy ptr is restored to the saved null instead of the actual original value
Change 3032818 on 2016/06/29 by Gareth.Martin
Removed all use of deferred exec commands from the landscape code
This solves numerous crashes during commandlets etc with landscape infos not being initialized because they don't tick the engine
#jira UE-31654
#jira UE-29568
Notes:
Split CreateLandscapeInfo from GetLandscapeInfo (removing the default-true bool param from GetLandscapeInfo in the process), so it only gets created where intended
Removed some unused properties/functions, e.g. ULandscapeInfo::bIsValid, bCurrentlyEditing
Removed legacy landscape world composition code

Change 3042484 on 2016/07/08 by Jack.Porter
Pull request from AndrewScheidecker https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/pull/1279 and updated to 4.13.
Adapted GetStaticBatchElementVisibility to support changing visibility of batches with a single element (for view-dependent culling of static mesh elements)
Added GetStaticBatchElementShadowVisibility that allows culling static mesh elements when rendering shadow depths using information about the light
** Any user-created vertex factory that implements GetStaticBatchElementVisibility will need to set bRequiresPerElementVisibility on their FMeshBatch.
#1279

MIGRATING FIX @ Request
Off by 1 error on reflection roughness calculation affecting 4.12. When I hoisted the max mip index i did a -1 on both sides(c++ & hlsl). This is the simplest hotfix. In 4.13 I'll remove the shader instruction and only do the "-1" in c++ this 1 less shader instruction.

Shadow depth refactor
* Shadow setup and render target allocation now happens in InitViews, and shadow depth rendering happens at one spot in the frame
* This provides control over where shadow depths are rendered for things like async compute, and allows easy atlasing of shadowmaps for forward shading
* The 33Mb of shadow depth buffers in FSceneRenderTargets has been removed, and shadow depth buffers are now allocated as needed
* A large amount of duplicated code to handle each shadow type has been combined
* Cleaner parallel rendering: no more view hacking for the shadow depth pass, no more shadow depths in the middle of translucency
* 'vis ShadowDepthAtlas' or 'vis WholeSceneShadowMap' must now be used to visualize the shadow depth textures

Cached shadowmaps for whole scene point and spot light shadows
* Controlled by 'r.Shadow.CacheWholeSceneShadows', defaults to enabled (7ms -> 1.5ms of shadow depths on Titan for ~20 lights)
* Primitives with Static or Stationary mobility have their depths cached, as long as the light is not moving
* Primitives with Movable mobility or using World Position Offset in their materials will not have their depths cached
* Cached shadowmaps are copied each frame and then movable primitive depths composited
* Fast paths exist for when there were no static primitives (skip cached shadowmap) or movable primitives (project directly from cached shadowmap)
* 'r.Shadow.CacheWPOPrimitives' controls whether materials using WPO can be cached (default is off for correctness)
* 'r.Shadow.CachedShadowsCastFromMovablePrimitives' can be used to force off all support for movable primitives, skipping the shadowmap copies (1.5ms -> 0ms of shadow depths for ~20 lights)

- Added a Video Buffer to ensure smooth submission of frames from CEF. Without this, we can get multiple texture updates per engine frame, which causes stuttering at high framerates
- Disable hardware acceleration on Windows, since this causes severe performance issues with video rendering
Please note: To actually see 60fps video, you need to ensure the browser frame rate passed into FWebBrowserSingleton::CreateBrowserWindow is set to 60 (default is 24)

Ripped out the quick hacky VM debugger I wrote a while back.
Over complicated the VM and didn't do enough work to justify it.
Will revisit debugging and profiling of VM scripts in future.
Change 3019691 on 2016/06/20 by Ben.Woodhouse
Add a per-object shadow setting for directional lights (r.Shadow.PerObjectDirectionalDepthBias), which is independent of the CSM setting. Often a smaller bias is desirable on per-object shadows, where detailed self-shadowing is needed.
This change also makes the CSM naming consistent with what the setting actually does (the old setting was named r.shadow.csm, although it affects per-object shadows as well as CSMs).

(Optionally) exclude idle time from server FPS charts.
- Time spent waiting for the next frame in order to hit capped FPS can be optionally excluded by using t.FPSChart.ExcludeIdleTime (set to 1 for servers).
- Server FPS charts analytics events and log output will include the information if idle time was excluded.

Change 2774277 on 2015/11/19 by Gil.Gribb

DR - Allow toggling compute skin dispatch at runtime
- r.SkinCacheShaders Now enable the shaders and feature
- r.SkinCaching enables toggling at runtime
- r.SkinCache.BufferSize Sets the size in bytes of buffer for outputting
- Now uses 3 UAV buffers instead of one (avoid RenderDoc crashes)
#codereview Marcus.Wassmer, Martin.Mittring
Change 2803940 on 2015/12/15 by Marcus.Wassmer
Add r.PS4.AsyncComputeBudgetMode to switch between CUMasking and WaveLimit modes. So far it looks like WaveLimits behave better in UE4.
Also rearrange AsyncSSAO to run immediately after HZB to overlap with occlusion queries. In my testing this takes SSAO cost from .5ms -> .2ms. However it had to be hacked to run without normals. Hopefully Martin can get some real AsyncSSAO in.

Change 2803999 on 2015/12/15 by Uriel.Doyon
Refactored the shader complexity material override logic to allow other viewmodes shader overrides.
TexelFactorAccuracy ViewMode : shows the accuracy of the static mesh texel factors, used for streaming.
WantedMipsAccuracy ViewMode : shows the accuracy of the static mesh wanted mips accuracy, used for streaming.
Added an option to stream textures based on the AABB distance instead of using the sphere approximation.
Added an option to only keep a the wanted mips.
Moved optimization related viewmodes into a submenu to avoid polluting the interface.

Particle SubUV cutouts
* A new asset type 'SubUV Animation' precomputes bounding geometry for every frame of a SubUV texture animation.
* Particle emitters with a SubUV module can then use this SubUV Animation to render with much tigher bounding geometry to reduce overdraw.
* GPU performance savings depend on how much empty space (zero alpha) existed in the texture. Measured a reduction of 2-3x GPU time on a smoke effect.
* This only works if the material does not modify opacity to reveal areas with zero texture alpha

Better handling of erasing 100%-painted areas of blended landscape weightmap

I did the first part, lock some showflags to be 0 or 1 in SHIPPING
If this causes problems for some applications (e.g. using showflag as scalability which they shouldn't) the user needs to update the code.
or we remove the lock from that showflag.
For editor or non shipping features it's fine to use the SetSHOWFLAGNAME() calls, they become NOPS in SHIPPING.
This is a performance optimization (when used in inner loop) and prepares for removing more
