Public Functions: envSampleLOD envIrradiance
Needed for math constants
import lib-defines.glsl
Engine provided parameters
//: param auto texture_environment uniform sampler2D environment_texture; //: param auto environment_rotation uniform float environment_rotation; //: param auto environment_exposure uniform float environment_exposure; //: param auto environment_irrad_mat_red uniform mat4 irrad_mat_red; //: param auto environment_irrad_mat_green uniform mat4 irrad_mat_green; //: param auto environment_irrad_mat_blue uniform mat4 irrad_mat_blue;
Helper that allows one to sample environment. Rotation is taken into account. The environment map is a panoramic env map behind the scene, that's why there is extra computation from dir vector.
vec3 envSampleLOD(vec3 dir, float lod)
{
// WORKAROUND: Intel GLSL compiler for HD5000 is bugged on OSX:
// https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=308366
// It is necessary to replace atan(y, -x) by atan(y, -1.0 * x) to force
// the second parameter to be interpreted as a float
vec2 pos = M_INV_PI * vec2(atan(-dir.z, -1.0 * dir.x), 2.0 * asin(dir.y));
pos = 0.5 * pos + vec2(0.5);
pos.x += environment_rotation;
return textureLod(environment_texture, pos, lod).rgb * environment_exposure;
}
Return the irradiance for a given direction. The computation is based on environment's spherical harmonics projection.
vec3 envIrradiance(vec3 dir)
{
float rot = environment_rotation * M_2PI;
float crot = cos(rot);
float srot = sin(rot);
vec4 shDir = vec4(dir.xzy, 1.0);
shDir = vec4(
shDir.x * crot - shDir.y * srot,
shDir.x * srot + shDir.y * crot,
shDir.z,
1.0);
return max(vec3(0.0), vec3(
dot(shDir, irrad_mat_red * shDir),
dot(shDir, irrad_mat_green * shDir),
dot(shDir, irrad_mat_blue * shDir)
)) * environment_exposure;
}
