# Objective - Address #10338 ## Solution - When implementing specular and diffuse transmission, I inadvertently introduced a performance regression. On high-end hardware it is barely noticeable, but **for lower-end hardware it can be pretty brutal**. If I understand it correctly, this is likely due to use of masking by the GPU to implement control flow, which means that you still pay the price for the branches you don't take; - To avoid that, this PR introduces new shader defs (controlled via `StandardMaterialKey`) that conditionally include the transmission logic, that way the shader code for both types of transmission isn't even sent to the GPU if you're not using them; - This PR also renames ~~`STANDARDMATERIAL_NORMAL_MAP`~~ to `STANDARD_MATERIAL_NORMAL_MAP` for consistency with the naming convention used elsewhere in the codebase. (Drive-by fix) --- ## Changelog - Added new shader defs, set when using transmission in the `StandardMaterial`: - `STANDARD_MATERIAL_SPECULAR_TRANSMISSION`; - `STANDARD_MATERIAL_DIFFUSE_TRANSMISSION`; - `STANDARD_MATERIAL_SPECULAR_OR_DIFFUSE_TRANSMISSION`. - Fixed performance regression caused by the introduction of transmission, by gating transmission shader logic behind the newly introduced shader defs; - Renamed ~~`STANDARDMATERIAL_NORMAL_MAP`~~ to `STANDARD_MATERIAL_NORMAL_MAP` for consistency; ## Migration Guide - If you were using `#ifdef STANDARDMATERIAL_NORMAL_MAP` on your shader code, make sure to update the name to `STANDARD_MATERIAL_NORMAL_MAP`; (with an underscore between `STANDARD` and `MATERIAL`) |
