Full Changelog: VulkanSceneGraph-1.0.3...VulkanSceneGraph-1.0.4

VulkanSceneGraph-1.0.3 release

Major changes in this release are:

• Building of glslang source code directly into the VulkanSceneGraph library, avoiding the need to link against glslang and SPIRV-Tools as external libraries. Now the only dependency is Vulkan, C++17 and CMake and ensures that all platforms have the same shader compilation features available at all times.
• Instanced billboards with scaling support, all managed in the vertex shader with no CPU overhead.
• Rendering whole earth Bing Maps paged imagery.
• Support for aliasing extensions when loading data.
• New .txt Reader for reading ascii files as vsg::stringValue making it easier to read configuration files etc. in a coherent way that fully supports use with http and local file caching.
• Improvements to Windows and macOS keyboard mappings that ensure the same mappings are used on all platforms.
• Improved handling of two sided lighting.

VulkanSceneGraph 1.0.2 maintenance release

The main fix that justified this release was a fix of a race condition in vsg::CompileManager, also included are improvements in full screen support on macOS, and the addition of vsg::fileType(Path) and vsg::getDirectoryContents(Path) functions. Further details of changes be found on discussion thread :#645.

VulkanSceneGraph 1.0.1 maintenance release

Bug fixes and refinements.

VulkanSceneGraph-1.0.0 release

Vulkan now has professional grade Scene Graph that can handle the needs of vis-sim, scientific, engineering, GIS, compute and games markets, making it easier to use Vulkan and get the best performance from it.
