opengl - GLSL Instancing - 顶点数据的最大输入数？

Question

我正在尝试在我的 OpenGL 程序中实现实例化。我让它工作，然后决定通过将模型- View -投影乘法矩阵作为输入发送到 GLSL 程序来使我的 GLSL 代码更高效，以便 CPU 为每个实例计算它，而不是 GPU。这是我的顶点着色器代码(大部分与我的问题无关):

#version 330 core

// Input vertex data, different for all executions of this shader.
layout(location = 0) in vec3 vertexPosition_modelspace;
layout(location = 2) in vec3 vertexColor;
layout(location = 3) in vec3 vertexNormal_modelspace;
layout(location = 6) in mat4 models;
layout(location = 10) in mat4 modelsV;
layout(location = 14) in mat4 modelsVP;

// Output data ; will be interpolated for each fragment.
out vec3 newColor;

out vec3 Position_worldspace;

out vec3 Normal_cameraspace;
out vec3 EyeDirection_cameraspace;

// Values that stay constant for the whole mesh.
uniform mat4 MVP;
uniform mat4 MV;
uniform mat4 P;
uniform mat4 V;
uniform mat4 M;
uniform int num_lights;
uniform vec3 Lights[256];

void main(){

// Output position of the vertex, in clip space : MVP * position
gl_Position =  P * modelsV * vec4(vertexPosition_modelspace,1);

// Position of the vertex, in worldspace : M * position
Position_worldspace = (models * vec4(vertexPosition_modelspace,1)).xyz;

// Vector that goes from the vertex to the camera, in camera space.
// In camera space, the camera is at the origin (0,0,0).
vec3 vertexPosition_cameraspace = ( modelsV * vec4(vertexPosition_modelspace,1)).xyz;
EyeDirection_cameraspace = vec3(0,0,0) - vertexPosition_cameraspace;    

// Normal of the the vertex, in camera space
Normal_cameraspace = ( modelsV * vec4(vertexNormal_modelspace,0)).xyz;

// UV of the vertex. No special space for this one.
newColor = vertexColor;

}

上面的代码有效，但只是因为我没有使用最后一个输入模型VP来计算gl_position。如果我确实使用它(而不是计算 P*modelsV)，则不会绘制实例，并且出现此错误:

Linking program
Compiling shader : GLSL/meshColor.vertexshader
Compiling shader : GLSL/meshColor.fragmentshader
Linking program
Vertex info
0(10) : error C5102: input semantic attribute "ATTR" has too big of a numeric index (16)
0(10) : error C5102: input semantic attribute "ATTR" has too big of a numeric index (16)
0(10) : error C5041: cannot locate suitable resource to bind variable "modelsVP". Possibly large array.

我确定我在我的 OpenGL 代码中正确链接了它，因为如果我将输入位置 modelsVP 与 modelsV 交换使其为 10 而不是 14，我可以使用它，但不能使用 modelsV。您的顶点着色器是否有最大输入数量？我真的想不出任何其他想法为什么我会得到这个错误......

我将在此处包含更多相关的 OpenGL 代码，但我很确定它是正确的(并非全部在同一个类或方法中):

// Buffer data for VBO. The numbers must match the layout in the GLSL code.
#define position 0 
#define uv 1
#define color 2
#define normal 3 
#define tangent 4
#define bitangent 5
#define model 6      // 4x4 matrices take 4 positions
#define modelV 10
#define modelVP 14
#define num_buffers 18

GLuint VBO[num_buffers];
glGenBuffers(num_buffers, VBO);

for( int i=0; i<ModelMatrices.size(); i++ )
{
mvp.push_back( projection * view * ModelMatrices.at(i) );
mv.push_back( view * ModelMatrices.at(i) );
}

glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, VBO[model]);
glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(glm::mat4) * ModelMatrices.size(), &ModelMatrices[0], GL_DYNAMIC_DRAW);
for (unsigned int i = 0; i < 4 ; i++) {

glEnableVertexAttribArray(model + i);
glVertexAttribPointer(model + i, 4, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, sizeof(glm::mat4), 
(const GLvoid*)(sizeof(GLfloat) * i * 4));
glVertexAttribDivisor(model + i, 1);
}

glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, VBO[modelV]);
glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(glm::mat4) * mv.size(), &mv[0], GL_DYNAMIC_DRAW);
for (unsigned int i = 0; i < 4 ; i++) {

glEnableVertexAttribArray(modelV + i);
glVertexAttribPointer(modelV + i, 4, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, sizeof(glm::mat4), 
(const GLvoid*)(sizeof(GLfloat) * i * 4));
glVertexAttribDivisor(modelV + i, 1);
}

glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, VBO[modelVP]);
glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(glm::mat4) * mvp.size(), &mvp[0], GL_DYNAMIC_DRAW);
for (unsigned int i = 0; i < 4 ; i++) {

glEnableVertexAttribArray(modelVP + i);
glVertexAttribPointer(modelVP + i, 4, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, sizeof(glm::mat4), (const GLvoid*)(sizeof(GLfloat) * i * 4));
glVertexAttribDivisor(modelVP + i, 1);
}

OpenGL 要求实现至少提供 16 个 4 分量顶点属性。因此，不能保证所有实现都支持索引 16；见 GL_MAX_VERTEX_ATTRIBS更多细节。

您的 mat4 顶点属性计为 4 个 4 分量属性，因此在仅支持 16 个 4 分量顶点属性的实现中，索引 14 超出范围。
