Replaces ErrorStatus with Error across all systems for consistency.
Renames ResourceBarrierData fields to camelCase.
Adds BindlessAccess enum and updates GetBindlessIndex API.
Updates method signatures, result types, and error checks.
Modernizes HLSL mesh shader syntax and fixes naming.
Improves code style and updates comments for clarity.
Introduces a full-featured render graph system with pass culling, resource aliasing, and automatic barrier generation. Refactors resource and barrier APIs, improves error handling, and unifies result types. Renderer and render passes now use the new graph-based workflow. Updates shader includes, adds a blit shader, and improves HLSL parsing. Removes dynamic descriptor heaps in favor of persistent ones. Project file now includes the render graph module. Lays the foundation for advanced rendering features and improved memory efficiency.
Major architectural update to graphics/material/shader system:
- Introduced strongly-typed key structs (Key64/Key128) for passes, variants, and pipelines; removed legacy key types.
- Implemented robust hashing and key generation utilities for efficient variant and pipeline lookup/caching.
- Shader compiler now compiles/caches all keyword variants using new key system; includes handled as lists.
- Switched to push constant root signature for per-draw data; updated HLSL and C# codegen accordingly.
- Refactored Material, Shader, and Pass data structures for cache efficiency and variant support.
- Pipeline library and PSO management now use 128-bit keys and variant-specific caching.
- Replaced WorldNode with SceneNode in editor/scene graph; introduced ComponentManager for archetype/query management.
- Migrated math utilities to Misaki.HighPerformance.Mathematics; updated editor controls.
- Updated all HLSL and codegen for new buffer/push constant layouts and macros.
- Misc: project reference cleanup, D3D12 Work Graph support, doc updates, and code modernization.
Introduces a new Ghost.Shader.Concept project implementing a modern, data-oriented material and shader system with:
- Global/local keyword bitsets (fast O(1) ops, 64 bytes)
- Multi-pass shader program and per-pass render state overrides
- Thread-safe, 16-byte aligned material property blocks
- Material pooling to reduce GC pressure
- Batch renderer for efficient PSO grouping and async variant warmup
- Full demo (Program.cs) and extensive documentation (ARCHITECTURE.md, README.md, PROJECT_SUMMARY.md)
- Minor integration: new enums, doc updates, and keyword handling in existing code
No breaking changes to the existing engine; all new code is isolated. This serves as a reference implementation for high-performance, extensible material/shader architectures.
Major ECS API overhaul: added ComponentSet, refactored ComponentRegistry, and updated all entity/component creation methods. Introduced robust custom serialization infrastructure and per-component source generators for registration and (de)serialization. Updated editor, engine, and test code to use new APIs. Improved code quality, naming, and performance throughout. Removed obsolete code and updated dependencies.
Introduce per-component versioning in chunks and world for efficient change detection.
- Add version arrays to chunks and global version to world.
- Update queries and ForEach to mark written components as changed.
- Extend QueryBuilder with WithAllRW/WithPresentRW for write access.
- Expose change tracking API in ChunkView.
- Improve thread safety and debug code.
- Update tests and examples to demonstrate new features.
Added implicate conversion to Result<T, E> and RefResult<T, E>;
Added new ScheduleChunkParallel in EntityQuery;
Remove Ghost.SparseEntity from solution file. It's now completlty replaced by Ghost.Entities;
- Upgraded `Misaki.HighPerformance.LowLevel` to v1.2.8.
- Added `IEquatable` to `Handle<T>` and `Identifier<T>`.
- Improved `Result` extensions with `[CallerArgumentExpression]`.
- Introduced `SetEnabled` in `EntityManager` to toggle components.
- Refactored `Chunk` and `Archetype` for enableable components.
- Added `EntityQueryMask` for filtering enabled/disabled components.
- Enhanced `QueryBuilder` with new filtering methods (`WithAll`, etc.).
- Improved `EntityQuery.ForEach` with entity validation.
Refactored `ArcEntityTest` to use updated `Transform` and `Mesh` components, improving query logic with `GetChunkIterator` and introducing `ForEach` methods for better modularity.
Enhanced `Chunk` and `Archetype` structs with `readonly` properties and memory optimizations. Fixed bugs in memory copy logic and entity relocation.
Improved `EntityManager` with proper disposal handling, added a destructor, and fixed pointer usage in `AddComponent` and `SetComponentData`.
Refactored `EntityQuery` to use `ChunkIterator` and `ChunkView` for better abstraction. Simplified `EntityQueryMask` logic for performance.
Introduced templated `ForEach` methods and `ForEachWithEntity` methods, dynamically generated using T4 templates for scalability.
Added disposal logic for archetypes and queries in `World`. Updated `Program.cs` to include memory debugging setup.
Integrated T4 templates for dynamic code generation and added helper functions for template generation. Updated project file to include templates and generated outputs.
General improvements include enforcing immutability, optimizing memory management, and adding debugging/logging for better traceability.
