Change 2771498 on 2015/11/18 by Rolando.Caloca
DevRendering - HlslParser - Do not crash if an unknown preprocessor directive is found; add proper support for #pragma
#codereview Marcus.Wassmer
Change 2771600 on 2015/11/18 by Rolando.Caloca
DevRendering - SCW - Added support for running the platform shader compiler for one usf file off the dumped usf
Usage:
ShaderCompileWorker -directcompile FILENAME.USF -entry=EntryPoint -format=PCD3D_SM5/SF_PS4/etc -vs/-ps/-gs/-hs/-ds/-cs
-Also removed old communication enum from SCW
#rb Daniel.Wright
Change 2771647 on 2015/11/18 by Rolando.Caloca

#rb Chris.Bunner, Nick.Penwarden
Change 2772469 on 2015/11/18 by Daniel.Wright
Fixed SCW always exiting after compiling a long shader, now checks idle time starting from the end of the last compile task
Automated smoke tests aren't run in standalone programs which are frequently launched as they increase the startup time (doubles startup time of SCW as shown in sampling profile)
#rb Rolando.Caloca
Change 2772471 on 2015/11/18 by Daniel.Wright
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

Capsule shadows for movable skylight
* Gathers capsule occlusion along the unoccluded sky cone computed by Distance Field Ambient Occlusion
* Requires DFAO to be enabled at the moment
* Some serious artifacts remaining in indoor scenarios, as the unoccluded sky direction is not continuous

Change 2778618 on 2015/11/23 by Daniel.Wright
We now occlude Separate Transluceny by new Gaussian DOF.
Details: optimized one full res pass if GaussianDOF with SeparateTranslucency is used. NearDOF is now occlusing/hiding SeparateTransluceny which allows DOFVignette to work better and it seems more right in general. If Far and Near DOF is used with Gaussian DOF it now requires another half res setup pass and full res composite pass.
Added enum to allow for 3 custom colors if a texture is not bound.
[CL 2656232 by Martin Mittring in Main branch]
Instead of rendering a full screen quad for post process passes, render a mesh which represents only the screen area visible in the HMD after distortion.
This cuts the cost of post processing ~10-15% with no visible difference.
Initial implementation for the Vive.
[CL 2644327 by Ryan Vance in Main branch]
options: Nop / Read / Write
added ensure() and check() to find bad usage patterns
this fixes DBuffer decal rendering, allows optimizations in the RHI (near hardware APIs like DX12 or consoles)
