Supported material types

[vorg]

Currently we support:

• pbr with shadows
• unlit

Would be good to have

• basic (wrapped)diffuse + shadows - for lightweight scene previz and tools
• unlit with shadows?

What about?

• thick line rendering? (ecs.Draw Instanced Segments)
• particles? (

[vorg]

Line rendering would be good to have internally anyway for all the gizmos/helpers.

• Simple primitive line (aka wireframe) before thick lines?

[vorg]

gl.Lines are supported. It's a not well known feature but it already works out of the box thanks to pex-context

But need edges to be computed

Any matcap material needed?

[vorg]

Haven't used Matcap in ages. For quick debug scenes i've used wrapped diffuse with random color per mesh + sometimes shadows (ecs.Draw Base Color and friends)

[dmnsgn]

v4 renderers:

• standard PBR (default render engine or standardRendererSystem)
• basic with shadows (basicRendererSystem)
• thick line rendering via material.type "segments"
• helper GL lines (could be abstracted)

Could standard and basic be mixed in the same view?
There is confusion between line and segments (uses lineRenderer).

[vorg]

Standard and basic can be mixed. Let me check on the segment naming.
