- Make volumetric light effect strength server controllable
- Separate volumetric and bloom shader pipeline
- Require bloom to be enable, scale godrays with bloom
* Rewrite shadow filtering for the new distortion
* Calculate penumbra radius using a single sample
* Avoid peter-panning effect due to filtering of short shadows
* Add adaptive filter quality for soft shadows
* Avoid sharp shadows on surfaces without normals (e.g. plants)
* Increase default and maximum soft shadow radius
* Make line numbers in shader errors match the code
* Move shadow position calculation to vertex shaders
* Animate entire scene before rendering shadows to prevent lagging of shadows
* Remove unnecessary use of PolygonOffsetFactor
* Apply normal offset to both nodes and objects
* Rename getPerspectiveFactor -> applyPerspectiveDistortion
* Remove perspective distortion from fragment shaders
* Pass perspective distortion parameters as uniforms
* Set all perspective bias parameters via ShadowRenderer
* Recalibrate perspective distortion and shadow range to render less shadow geometry with the same quality and observed shadow distance
Fragment color for nodes is now calculated from:
* Texture color, highlighted by artificial light if present (light color conveyed via vertex color).
* Texture color highlighted by natural light (conveyed via vertex color) filtered by shadow.
* Reflected day/moonlight filtered by shadow (color and intensity), assuming some portion of the light is directly reflected from the materials.
Reduces stutter and freezes when playing.
* Maintains double SM and SM Color textures
* Light frustum update triggers incremental generation of shadow map into secondary 'future' textures.
* Every incremental update renders a portion of the shadow draw list (split equally).
* After defined number of frames (currently, 4), 'future' and 'current' textures are swapped, and DirectionalLight 'commits' the new frustum to use when rendering shadows on screen.

* Adjust minimum filter radius for perspective
* Expand shadow frustum when camera FOV changes, reuse FOV distance adjustment from numeric.cpp
* Read shadow_soft_radius setting as float
* Use adaptive filter radius to accomodate for PSM distortion
* Adjust filter radius for texture resolution
