It has a slight color cast to it at the moment, I believe due to
incorrect color space conversions, not because of the upsampling
method itself. So Meng upsampling is still the active method
at the moment.
Tests random vectors, and makes sure that encoding/decoding
round trip only introduces precision errors below a certain
threshold.
Pretty confident that the implementation is correct now.
This way the executable code can be worked with directly, instead
of via the python file that generates the rust code.
Also introduced some small optimizations.
Rust 1.27 stablized a variety of cpu intrinsics, including SIMD
on x86/64 platforms. This commit moves to using those intrinsics
for the optimized Float4 implementation. This means Psychopath
now compiles on stable Rust with all optimizations. Yay!
Might move this into the main source base at some point, but
I'm not totally sure about the correctness of the table yet, so
would like to generate it for now.
They are now generated by a build.rs script from nothing but the
colorspace's primaries, which makes it super easy to add more
colorspaces. So easy that I added three more: ACES AP0, ACES AP1
and Rec.2020.
This lays the foundation for supporting output to different
colorspaces.
This is more a piece-of-mind thing than anything else. But it
also lets us make the number of LDS dimensions lower without
worrying, which in turn makes the code smaller.
After implementation, it does appear to make rendering slower
by a noticable bit compared to what I was doing before. At very
low sampling rates it does provide a bit of visual improvement,
but by the time you get to even just 16 samples per pixel its
benefits seem to disappear.
Due to the slow down and the minimal gains, I'll be removing
this in the next commit. But I want to commit it so I don't
lose the code, since it was an interesting experiment with
some promising results.
