Shader for default GL_LIGHTING behavior, with multiple lights, plus normal mapping

This shader will give you lighting results exactly like what you would get with non-shader GL_LIGHTS. It will also handle normal maps. You must calculate and pass in the normal map values yourself. I chose to use the texture coord array for texture unit 1 to store the adjusted light X and Y normals, to tell the program which way the light is shining.

I would like to add some specular shininess to the bumpmaps. Can anyone help?

Oh, and I have been using shaders for three days. Before that, I had no idea how they worked, and had never used them at all. 3D Labs’ ShaderGen tool was very helpful.

Vertex program:

vec4 Ambient;
vec4 Diffuse;

uniform int activelights;
uniform int lightmapenabled;

void pointLight(in int i, in vec3 normal, in vec3 eye, in vec3 ecPosition3)
{
   float nDotVP;       // normal . light direction
   float nDotHV;       // normal . light half vector
   float pf;           // power factor
   float attenuation;  // computed attenuation factor
   float d;            // distance from surface to light source
   vec3  VP;           // direction from surface to light position
   vec3  halfVector;   // direction of maximum highlights

   // Compute vector from surface to light position
   VP = vec3 (gl_LightSource[i].position) - ecPosition3;

   // Compute distance between surface and light position
   d = length(VP);

   // Normalize the vector from surface to light position
   VP = normalize(VP);

   // Compute attenuation
   attenuation = 1.0 / (gl_LightSource[i].constantAttenuation +
       gl_LightSource[i].linearAttenuation * d +
       gl_LightSource[i].quadraticAttenuation * d * d);

   halfVector = normalize(VP + eye);

   nDotVP = max(0.0, dot(normal, VP));
   //nDotHV = max(0.0, dot(normal, halfVector));

   // See if point on surface is inside cone of illumination
   spotDot = dot(-VP, normalize(gl_LightSource[i].spotDirection));

   if (spotDot < gl_LightSource[i].spotCosCutoff)
   {
	   spotAttenuation = 0.0; // light adds no contribution
   }
   else

   }
   // Combine the spotlight and distance attenuation.
   attenuation *= spotAttenuation;

   //nDotHV = max(0.0, dot(normal, halfVector));

   //if (nDotVP == 0.0)

   //Specular += gl_LightSource[i].specular * pf * attenuation;

}

void directionalLight(in int i, in vec3 normal)
{

vec3 fnormal(void)

	//Calculate active light sources
	if (activelights>0)
	{
		ProcessLight(0,normal,eye,ecPosition3);
		if (activelights>1)
		{
			ProcessLight(1,normal,eye,ecPosition3);
			if (activelights>2)
			{

					ProcessLight(3,normal,eye,ecPosition3);
				}
			}
		}
	}
	color=gl_FrontLightModelProduct.sceneColor+Ambient+Diffuse;
	color = clamp( color, 0.0, 1.0 );
	gl_FrontColor=color;
}



void main (void)
{
	vec3  transformedNormal;
	float alphaFade = 1.0;

	// Eye-coordinate position of vertex, needed in various calculations
	vec4 ecPosition = gl_ModelViewMatrix * gl_Vertex;
	
	// Do fixed functionality vertex transform
	gl_Position = ftransform();
	transformedNormal = fnormal();
	flight(transformedNormal, ecPosition, alphaFade);

	//Enable texture coordinates
	gl_TexCoord[0] = gl_MultiTexCoord0;
	gl_TexCoord[1] = gl_MultiTexCoord1;
	gl_TexCoord[2] = gl_MultiTexCoord2;
	gl_TexCoord[3] = gl_MultiTexCoord3;

}

Fragment program:

uniform sampler2D texture0;
uniform sampler2D texture1;
uniform sampler2D texture2;
uniform sampler2D texture3;
uniform int lightmapenabled;
uniform float strength;
uniform int bumpmapenabled;
uniform int textureenabled;

void main (void)
{
	vec4 color;

	//Lighting	
	//if (lightingenabled==1)
	//{
		if (lightmapenabled==1)
		{
			color=texture2D(texture0, gl_TexCoord[0].xy);
		}
		else
		{
			color=gl_Color;
		}
	//}

	
	//Bumpmap
	if (bumpmapenabled==1)
	{
		vec4 bumpmapcolor=texture2D(texture1,gl_TexCoord[2].xy);
		color=color*2.0*vec4(strength*((bumpmapcolor.r-0.5)*(gl_TexCoord[1].x-0.5)+(bumpmapcolor.g-0.5)*(gl_TexCoord[1].y-0.5)+(0.5/strength)));
	}

	//Base Texture
	color=color*texture2D(texture2,gl_TexCoord[2].xy)*2.0;

	gl_FragColor=clamp(color,0.0,1.0);
}

Have you checked if this really works:

if (activelights>0)
	{
		ProcessLight(0,normal,eye,ecPosition3);
		if (activelights>1)
		{
			ProcessLight(1,normal,eye,ecPosition3);
			if (activelights>2)
			{
				ProcessLight(2,normal,eye,ecPosition3);
				if (activelights>3)
				{
					ProcessLight(3,normal,eye,ecPosition3);
				}
			}
		}
	}

I mean, do the if-statements really do what they should? I just implementen something like that and also tried many variations but no matter what, the performance is the same, no matter if I use 1 light or 8 lights on a Geforce 7800GS. Seems like you could just skip the ifs and set the lightcolor to zero, that would even perform faster.

Case

I think a loop would be better (at least, it looks simpler to optimize, given that activelights is a uniform) :

for (i =0; i< activelights;i++) {
   ProcessLight(i,normal,eye,ecPosition3);
}

Yes, a loop would be nice - but a loop doesn´t work in fragment programs, at least not on Geforce 7 Hardware.

Just found the way to make the if-construction actually do something on nvidia-Hardware: you need to provide
#pragma optionNV(ifcvt none)

I ended up changing all those nested if statements to individual ones, like this:

if (activelights>0)
{
	ProcessLight(0,normal,eye,ecPosition3);
}
if (activelights>1)
{
	ProcessLight(1,normal,eye,ecPosition3);
}
if (activelights>2)
{
	ProcessLight(2,normal,eye,ecPosition3);
}
if (activelights>3)
{
	ProcessLight(3,normal,eye,ecPosition3);
}

The shader was causing crashes on ATI cards with no explanation. I changed the if statements structure and it worked fine. This begs the question whether GLSL can be considered a programming language at all, since it freaks out if you do anything other than simple conditionals. :eek:
