1.4.0 - New functions

BSL gets more powerful with new NME wrappers for common GLSL operations:

• normalize
• distance
• mod
• acos
• floor
• ceil
• uniformMat4
• texture2dArraySample

1.3.0 New functions

Here are some useful new functions:

• div (divides stuff)
• smoothstep
• add
• min
• max

1.2.0

Online documentation

The documentaion is now online at https://barthpaleologue.github.io/BabylonJS-Shading-Language/

Plenty of new functions

• add f shorthand for float
• add trig as a general purpose trigonometry function
• add atan2
• add length for all vectors
• add remap
• add withX, withY, withZ, withW to make an edited copy of a vector
• add step, very useful for branchless conditions
• add abs
• add mix
• add sub

1.1.0

Although it is not a major release, this one has some breaking changes to fix some initial design errors.

I think it is okay since realistically no one had the time to download or even use the 1.0.0 version that came out yesterday!

Beyond this release I will not make breaking changes in non-major releases.

Breaking changes

• better defaults for shader targets (neutral for eveything except texture samples and pbr that are in fragment)
• All additional options are passed through an optional partial instead of separate parameters, this will allow adding options without any breaking change in the future.
• renamed sampleTexture to textureSample to match WGSL syntax
• remove xy as split can be used directly
• unify multiplication by a scalar and multiplication between vectors => mulVec has been removed, use mul instead.
• unify vector splitting: the dimension is now inferred from the input => splitVec2 and splitVec3 have been removed, use split instead

Other changes

• vertex attribute input safety
• xz now works for vec3 and vec4
