Filament Release Notes log

This file contains one line summaries of commits that are worthy of mentioning in release notes. A new header is inserted each time a tag is created.

v1.3.1

  • Unified Filament Sceneform and npm releases.
  • Improved cmgen SH with HDR images.
  • IndirectLight can now be queried for dominant direction and color.
  • Added support for vertex morphing.
  • Introduced custom attributes, accessible from the vertex shader.
  • Added Java / Kotlin bindings for KtxLoader.
  • Added JavaScript / Typescript bindings for the new RenderTarget class.
  • Added base path to glTF loadResources method for JavaScript.
  • Added support for iOS CVPixelBuffer external images with the OpenGL backend.

sceneform-1.9pr4

  • Added gltf_bloom Android sample to show gltfio and the RenderTarget API.
  • Added getMaterialInstanceAt to the Java version of RenderableManager.
  • Fix JNI bindings for setting values in parameter arrays.
  • Added JNI bindings for the gltfio library.
  • Fix support for parameter arrays in .mat files.
  • Added support for RGB_11_11_10
  • Removed support for RGBM (warning: source compatibility breakage)
  • IBL cubemap can now be of any size
  • Texture::generatePrefilterMipmap can be used for runtime generation of a reflection cubemap

sceneform-1.9pr3

  • Added Scene.addEntities() to the Java / Kotlin bindings.
  • Improved robustness in the tangents utility for meshes that have tangents and normals.
  • Introduced RenderTarget API that allows View to reference an offscreen render target.
  • Added lucy_bloom sample to demonstrate the new RenderTarget API.
  • Added Screen Space Ambient Occlusion support (SAO)
  • New blending modes: multiply and screen
  • Fixed an issue when sorting blended objects with different blending modes
  • The material property curvatureToRoughness has been replaced with specularAntiAliasing. This new specular anti-aliasing solution offers more control via two new properties: specularAntiAliasingVariance and specularAntiAliasingThreshold. They can also be set on material instances if needed
  • Added specular ambient occlusion to compute a new AO term applied to specular reflections (see specularAmbientOcclusion property in materials)
  • Added multi-bounce ambient occlusion to brighten AO and preserve local color (see multiBounceAmbientOcclusion property in materials)
  • Micro-shadowing is now applied to material ambient occlusion
  • Use a smaller 64x64 DFG LUT on mobile to reduce binary size
  • Added a distance field generator to libimage.
  • JavaScript MaterialInstance now supports vec4 colors.
  • Further reduced filamat binary size by removing reliance on stdlib.
  • Added a new, smaller, version of the filamat library, filamat_lite. Material optimization and compiling for non-OpenGL backends have been removed in favor of a smaller binary size.
  • Implemented hard fences for the Metal backend, enablying dynamic resolution support.
  • Improved SurfaceOrientation robustness when using UVs to generate tangents.
  • Created a RELEASE_NOTES.md file, to be updated with significant PRs.
