* Shadow overhaul round 2: PCSS, dynamic cascades, cockpit/instanced shadows
Squashed snapshot of lafiel/shadow_overhaul_2's continuation work
(d3922aa87..010f9d2d9), which has no separate upstream PR of its own.
* Add Vulkan rendering backend
Squashed snapshot of the Vulkan backend as vendored into this branch
(ce2d1e85f..6ce539463, authored by Mara van der Laan with build/CI
fixes by Taylor Richards). This work has its own upstream PR #7553
(notimaginative:vulkan-pr-new) and is not otherwise original to true-hdr.
* Add true HDR output, RT shadows, and PCSS shadows for Vulkan
Squashed snapshot of true-hdr's own integration work: true HDR
framebuffer output, wiring the shadow overhaul into the Vulkan
backend (raytraced + cascaded shadow maps), logging refactors, log
filter UI, and CI/build fixes.
* refactor: update Vulkan logging calls to use `nprintf` for scoped logging
* fix: correct shadow cascade count in Vulkan logging calls
* fix: fall back to PATH-resolved ccache when CCACHE_PATH is stale
CI hardcodes /usr/local/bin/ccache, but macOS runners on Apple Silicon
hosts install Homebrew (and ccache) under /opt/homebrew instead,
causing all four Mac configs to fail with "No such file or directory".
* Fix vulkan texture readback to correctly handle transparent pipelines
* Put the pixel swizzles into a util file
* OOB safety check
* Fix fog handling
* Fix MSAA in Vulkan
* fix: enable SMAA for vulkan
* adapt the post-processing AA shaders to hdr
* fix clang-tidy warnings: concatenate nested namespaces, static methods
pixel_swizzle.{h,cpp}: collapse `namespace graphics { namespace util {`
into `namespace graphics::util {` (modernize-concat-nested-namespaces).
VulkanState.h/VulkanDraw.h: getClearColor()/setClearColor() only touch
gr_screen and other globals, no instance state, so make them static
(readability-convert-member-functions-to-static) and drop the
top-level const on getClearColor()'s return type
(readability-const-return-type).
* fix clang-tidy warning
* Extend raytraced shadows to all directional lights
RT shadows previously only shadowed the first directional light in the
scene, even though multi-sun missions push more than one directional
light into the engine. The TLAS raytraced shadows query against is
already light-agnostic, so this extends both the deferred lighting
pass and the forward MODEL shader to shadow every directional light
(capped by a new Max Raytraced Shadow Lights option, configurable via
the in-game Options menu or the Lab's Scene rendering options).
Cascaded shadow maps are untouched: they're built for a single light
only, so the deferred pass still limits itself to one shadowed
directional light whenever CSM (not raytracing) is the active method.

* refactor: improve shader flag handling and render target finalization in Vulkan backend
- Consolidate shader flag setup logic in VulkanPostProcessingLighting to simplify configuration.
- Fix dead field usage in VulkanDraw by ensuring correct image view selection for environment maps.
- Add mip chain regeneration in VulkanRenderer::endRenderTarget to ensure correct mip levels for cubemaps.
* fix: ensure correct mip chain initialization in cubemap rendering
- Add mip chain generation to VulkanDraw for cubemaps with multiple mip levels.
- Fix potential issue with uninitialized mip levels above level 0 in deferred-f.sdr sampling paths.
* fix: don't crash on startup when environment locale is unavailable
std::locale("") pulls in the process's environment locale categories
(LC_CTYPE, LC_MONETARY, LC_PAPER, etc.), and throws std::runtime_error
if any of them names a locale not installed on the host (e.g.
mismatched regional-format overrides). Since SCP_default_locale is
constructed during static initialization, before main() and before any
of our own exception handling exists, an uncaught throw here aborted
the whole process before the game even started. Fall back to the
classic "C" locale instead, which is sufficient since this locale is
only ever used for ASCII case-folding (SCP_toupper/tolower/isdigit).

* feat: add Vulkan debug-utils messenger, opt-in sync validation, frame diagnostics
Groundwork for the renderer-review fix series (.agents/plans/
vulkan-renderer-review-fixes.md, Phase 0):
- Register a VK_EXT_debug_utils messenger (preferred) instead of only the
deprecated VK_EXT_debug_report callback, which is kept as a fallback for
loaders without debug-utils. The messenger config is also chained into
instance creation so vkCreateInstance-time messages are captured.
Validation errors/warnings now go to the main log via mprintf.
- New -gr_sync_validation cmdline flag (implies -gr_debug): chains
VkValidationFeaturesEXT with synchronization validation into instance
creation when VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_validation is available. This is the
regression net for the synchronization fixes in the following commits.
- Frame stats now report descriptor sets/writes allocated per frame and the
total pipeline count (descriptor-manager counters; DescriptorWriter::flush
moved out-of-line to report into the manager).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <[email protected]>
* refactor: unify Vulkan render-pass begins, clamp in-pass clears, add per-frame UBO ring
Phase 1 of the renderer-review fix series: shared helpers that the
correctness fixes build on.
- New VulkanRenderer::beginTrackedRenderPass(PassBeginDesc): every render-pass
begin on the frame command buffer now records vkCmdBeginRenderPass and
updates the state tracker (pass, color attachment count, sample count,
render area, viewport) in one place. Converted: setupFrame,
beginSceneRendering (both branches), resumeSceneRendering,
endSceneRendering, beginRenderTarget (viewport kept for gr_set_viewport),
resumeSwapChainPass, plus new resumeScenePassAfterCopy() shared by
copyEffectTexture/copySceneDepthForParticles and
rebeginSwapChainPassAfterReadback() shared by both readbackFramebuffer
exits (~200 lines of duplicated begin/clear/viewport blocks removed).
- The state tracker records the active render area; all four
vkCmdClearAttachments sites clamp their rects against it and skip empty
results. Previously gr_screen-sized clear rects could exceed a smaller
off-screen render target's render area, which is invalid API usage.
- New PerFrameUboRing utility (VulkanPerFrameUbo.h/.cpp): a persistently
mapped uniform buffer with one slot region per frame in flight and a
self-flushing alloc(). Used by the next commit to fix the cross-frame
UBO races.
Deliberate behavior deltas (all safe-direction): the helper always sets
colorAttachmentCount/sampleCount (some sites previously inherited stale
values), and resumeSwapChainPass/resumeSceneRendering now also reset the
standard flipped viewport instead of leaving the previous one.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <[email protected]>
* fix: eliminate Vulkan cross-frame UBO/buffer races, make gr_sync honest
Phase 2 of the renderer-review fix series: with two frames in flight, several
host-visible resources were rewritten by the CPU while the previous frame's
GPU work could still be reading them.
- The post-processing scratch UBO is now a PerFrameUboRing (per-frame-in-
flight slot regions, persistently mapped, self-flushing alloc). All the
per-pass map/unmap/cursor bookkeeping in bloom/LDR/fog/SMAA is deleted;
the cursor resets exactly once per frame via the new
VulkanPostProcessor::beginFrame() hook in setupFrame.
This also fixes two latent bugs: (a) fog consumed scratch slots mid-scene
and bloom's later same-frame cursor reset overwrote them before submission
whenever fog+bloom were both active; (b) volumetric_fog_data (288 bytes)
overflowed the 256-byte slots - the memcpy spilled into the neighboring
slot and the shader's bound range ended before the aspect/fov/noise
fields. Slots are now 512 bytes (static_assert at the fog call site) and
the per-frame budget is 32 slots.
- The dedicated tonemap, output-encode, and MSAA-resolve UBOs (each a single
instance rewritten per frame, i.e. racy; the MSAA one also never flushed)
are deleted entirely - those passes build their structs on the stack and
allocate from the scratch ring.
- Static-buffer rewrites orphan instead of racing: getVkBuffer() stamps a
last-used frame number, and a full-content updateBufferData() on a Static
buffer used within the last MAX_FRAMES_IN_FLIGHT frames defers the old
VkBuffer to the deletion queue and writes a fresh one. Offset writes
(GPU-heap appends to fresh regions) and PersistentMapping buffers (the
engine holds their mapped pointer and syncs via gr_sync) are exempt.
- gr_sync_wait now honors its contract: VulkanRenderFrame::waitForFinish
takes a timeout and reports expiry without consuming the fence;
VulkanRenderer::waitForFrame returns false for fences taken during the
still-recording frame (previously it waited on a stale or idle slot and
reported success) and resolves the frame->slot mapping correctly. This
makes UniformBufferManager's segment-fence throttling actually protective
on Vulkan for the first time.

* avoid undefined behavior from UNREACHABLE on reachable code paths
UNREACHABLE expands to __assume(false) / __builtin_unreachable() in
release builds, which is undefined behavior if the code is ever actually
reached. Many UNREACHABLE sites only guard against unexpected-but-
possible runtime states (values from tables, mission/save files, network
packets, scripting, or user input), so reaching them should degrade
gracefully rather than invoke UB.
Replace UNREACHABLE with Assertion(false, ...) at all such sites. It
still pops an error in debug builds, but in release it is a harmless
no-op that simply falls through to the following code. Sites that are
genuinely unreachable by local invariants (e.g. a switch over a bounded
random number) are left as UNREACHABLE.
A few converted sites had no safe fall-through -- an uninitialized read,
null dereference, or null call would have followed -- so they also get a
minimal recovery: initialize the value, guard the dereference, return
early, or skip the offending item.
Where the converted site was a simple guard of the form
if (x) { Assertion(false, ...); return; }
hoist the check onto the invariant instead:
Assertion(!x, ...);
if (x) { return; }
This states the expectation directly and shows the offending value in
the debug popup, while keeping the same graceful runtime degradation.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <[email protected]>
* addendum
After consultation with Lafiel, use UNREACHABLE in situations that are effectively impossible even if not provably impossible. UNREACHABLE = "this shouldn't ever happen"; Assertion = "if this ever happens, it's a coding error". Also fix a few other sites and change a couple to Warnings.

* Allow mods to easily tune 'Target Hostile Bomb or Bomber' control
The `Target Hostile Bomb or Bomber` control targets bombs or bombers, though in mods may want a way to easily set exactly what this control does while still leveraging the utility of the 'bomb' flag for weapons and/or 'bomber' flag for ships (both of which affect AI behavior in various ways).
For example, in Solaris, Darius wants a way a way to allow players to only target bombs, while still allowing ships to be classified as as 'bomber'. In this case, the 'only bombs' option can be used. This PR adds a `$Behavior for pressing 'Target Hostile Bomb or Bomber' control:` to allow mods to set the behavior to `default` `only bombs` or `only bombers`.
For example, in FotG we want to allow players to target just bombers, as bombs themselves are hard to shoot down (critically though we still want the player to be able to manually target a bomb via 'target object in reticle'. This allows players to prioritize and easily target bombers while allowing skilled pilots to retain the option of manually shooting down bombs if they want an extra challenge. In this case the 'only bomber' option can be used.
Tested and works as expected in all cases.
* update using cleaned up function
* extra alt option for default case
* warning cleanup
* update default message
* whitespace clang
* appease clang with brackets
* Create scripting hook: 'On Options Menu Closed'
Complements #6591. This PR creates a hook, 'On Options Menu Closed' that provides a hook variable of `hv.OptionsAccepted` which is true if the options are accepted/saved, false if the options are discarded and not accepted/saved.
* Option to unify setting options with easy flag
Most modern UIs, including KNet 1.3, have options that are always set and do not require the user to click save, or on the few cases where options will not be saved automatically, the program shows a popup telling the user the changes are not saved. In addition, the user experience of setting many options then forgetting to press save is far more common and annoying then the opposite. As a last example, even the F3 in-game options menu presents Escape as the leave and save button, not the leave and discard button.
Currently, there are two screens where FSO allows users to press escape after setting options and leave without warning. The main options screen and the HUD screen. As it turns out, half of the options in the main options screen get saved even if the player presses escape (all the detail slider options along with the joystick and mouse sensitivity and dead zone settings), so current behavior is inconsistent to users.
This PR, aimed to be strategic and efficient, creates a game settings table option that allows mods to set so that the escape key for the HUD and Options screen does the same thing as pressing Ctrl-Enter/Accept. This optional setting unifies behavior, so that setting an option sets it whenever the user leaves that screen (whether it is pressing Escape, Ctrl-Enter, or the Accept button). The other screen that involves options and an escape is the control config menu, but that already methods in place to deal with escape in a consistent way.
Tested and everything works as expected.
* fix oversight of saving when going to F3 menu
* update to enum for future additions
* cleanup with better naming
* update warning message
* one more warning cleanup
* Create scripting hook: 'On Options Menu Tab Changed'
It would be very useful to know which options tab is active (IE Options, Multi, Detail) but it's all under one single Game State `GS_STATE_OPTIONS_MENU`.
This PR creates a hook, 'On Options Menu Tab Changed' that returns the value of the newly switched to options tab. Lafiel and I both discussed making this an ENUM, but the ENUM list is already quite bloated and this integer value seems like the cleanest solution.
Tested and works as expected.

This is a follow-up to #2100. Don't pause/unpause the audio if we are moving from/to the Control Config or HUD Config screens. We could hit F2 and move around a bit before resuming the game, so we don't want the audio to resume until we're ready.
The largest new feature is that it is now possible to include other
files into the RML by using the "include" tag. This is useful for making
markup files more modular.
Also added some more options for existing things (e.g. built-in detail
options).
This is similar to the other changes I already posted. Here the sound
instance handles are converted to their own handle type which will make
it easier to use the sound API.
This converts the previous int handles to a strongly-typed wrapper
handle which will make the API more self-documenting and will ensure
that wrongly used handles are detected at compile time.
I already found a few mistakes with these changes which I also fixed
here.
This adds a new class which allows to create type safe resource handle
types. At the moment, the engine uses ints pretty much everywhere for
providing handles to resources created by the specific subsystems. Since
all ints are the same to the C/C++ typesystem it is perfectly legal to
pass a sound handle to the graphics API as a buffer handle which will
obviously cause issues.
This adds a new type called "ID" which is a wrapper class for a generic
handle but with added type safety. An instance of this class cannot be
passed to a function expecting another type of handle which provided
compile-time type safety for these APIs.
As an initial test I converted the game sound handles to this new type.
I already found a bug in the mainhall system thanks to this new type.
The mainhall used the game sound handles as sound instance handles which
probably meant that that specific code never really worked right. I
removed the code since there was no better alternative for fixing it.
This adds support for specifying multiple sounds for a single game sound
entry. The engine then selects which sound will be played based on the
strategy provided by the game data. This required a few changes to some
of the game code since previously every game sound had exactly one sound
file attached to it. The most notable change is that it is no longer
possible to determine the exact duration a sound can have so instead the
new code computes the maximum duration a sound can have and uses that
where appropriate.
This also adds support for randomizing the pitch and volume of the sound
to provide a more varied experience even if only a single sound is used.
One possible issue that exists is that the "sequential" strategy only
works globally at the moment so if two sources use the same game sound
concurrently then the two sources will share the sequence of sounds
since there is no sound instance data at the moment. That can be added
in a future change but should not present a huge issue for most
use-cases.
Visual Studio on Appveyor somehow causes deprecation error on _our_
definition of vsprintf. I have no idea why these changes introduced this
warning but I won't debug Visual Studio compiler bugs that I can't
reproduce with my Visual Studio version so I just disabled those
warnings.
fa60c666bc tried to fix an issue reported
by Coverity which was an intentional "issue". This restores the original
behavior which will cause a new coverity issue which can be ignored.
This fixes Mantis 3195.
MASSIVE thanks to Mjn.Mixael and Blue Planet for tireless constant testing.
(It's still not perfect, but it probably wouldn't be where it is at without them)
Spans a lot from initial commit to AP Branch in r6835.
