[SOLVED] 3D App renderer and RENDER_SIMPLE

[anthony.liot]

Hi,

 

I have a question about the video_app command "auto".

 

My first question it's about the RENDER_SIMPLE, is it possible to use the RENDER_SIMPLE macro with the video command "auto" ???

 

Second question it's about direct3d119 It seems to not call when i use "auto" command, why ??

 

Thanks

RENDER_SIMPLE just activates simple shaders set instead of default one.

direct3d119 render can be activated with "auto" command only on video card without direct3d10 feature level support or with feature level limit which can be enabled in direct3d control panel.

You can force activate direct3d119 render with "-video_app direct3d119" command line parameters also.

"auto" parameter selects the best graphic API from the list of currently available.

Oki thanks. I don't know why, i thought Render Simple it was operating only on some renderer

Frustum may be i'm wrong, but when i look the engine.cpp it seems not include the d3d911 when it's use video_app="auto"

line 700 : You have only D3D11 D3DO OGL OGES PST3

 

It's not necessary to had something like that here between d3d11 and d3d9 :

#ifdef USE_DIRECT3D119

if(engine.renders == NULL && video_app.get() != "direct3d119") {

#ifdef USE_D3D119_WRAPPER

if(D3D119Wrapper::isInitialized() || D3D119Wrapper::init()) {

video_app = String("direct3d119");

engine.renders = new D3D119RenderManager();

}

#else

video_app = String("direct3d119");

engine.renders = new D3D119RenderManager();

#endif

}

#endif

I've added description of auto option into docs :)

This is a new initialization code:

#ifdef USE_DIRECT3D119
	assert(render == NULL && render9 == NULL && "D3D11RenderManager::create_render(): render is not NULL");
	if(video_app.get() == "direct3d119" || D3D11Ext::getFeatureLevel() < D3D_FEATURE_LEVEL_10_0) {
		render9 = new D3D119Render();
		return render9;
	}
	render = new D3D11Render();
	return render;
#else
	assert(render == NULL && "D3D11RenderManager::create_render(): render is not NULL");
	render = new D3D11Render();
	return render;
#endif
