* Fixed organization of the AssetProcessor SourceAssetBrowser
Assets within the Engine Root were grouped under a '/' entry.
That has been fixed to use the relative path within the engine root for
those assets
Assets outside of the Engine Root, but on the same drive were using
absolute paths before. Now there are child entries that navigate up the
directory hierarchy to those asset locations
* Added ly_enable_gems call to Atom gems targets that are required
The DefaultLevel.prefab contains several Atom components, that require
the Atom RHI, RPI, Common_Feature, ShaderBuilder and AtomLyIntegration CommonFeatures
gems to be enabled in order to successfully process in the
AssetProcessor.
* Added ly_enable_gems call to make the Camera gem required in Tools,
Builders and Clients.
This is needed as the DefaultLevel.prefab contains an Editor Camera
Component
* Adding the ly_enable_gem call to make the Maestro gem required
CrySystem currently requires Maestro to be enabled in order to
initialize
* Added ly_enable_gems call to the SceneProcessing gem to make it required
The SceneCore and SceneData libraries that are part of the core engine
Code folder requires the SceneProcessing gem to be enabled in order to
invoke the InitializeDynamicModule hooks in DllMain.cpp in order to
initialize those libraries.
* Fixed bad argument in comment for Prefab CMakeLists.txt
* Fixed Assert in Asset Builders due to the Atom RPI Builder
The Atom RPI Builder was enabling the Asset Catalog for the ScriptAsset a second time
The Atom Feature Common EditorSystemCommonComponent.cpp which also loads
in the AssetBuilder is enabling the Asset Catalog for the ScriptAsset
Added BehaviorContext reflection to the OutputDeviceTransformType enum
to fix the BehaviorContext errors about reflecting a method that returns
such an enum
* Added TypeId output to the JsonDeserializer report message about missing
ClassData
Previously the report callback would indicate that the target type was
missing Serialization class data, but didn't indicate the TypeId of the
target type
* Added support to the ly_enable_gems function to be able to support
0 gems being enabled.
Updated the Install step for CMake to propagate any ly_enable_gems
within a CMakeLists.txt for a target into the generated CMakeLists.txt
that is made for each installed IMPORTED target
* Adding newline to the end of the Camera Gem CMakeLists.txt
* Fixing target TYPE parameter for actual Gem Modules to use the GEM_MODULE tag instead of MODULE
* Reverting change to the DESTINATION directory for the installed CMakeLists.txt to use the relative path to the installed directory
* Adding the Atom_Bootstrap gem as a required gem
The Client and GameLaunchers required the Atom_Bootstrap gem in order to create the NativeWindow
Added Atom_Feature_Common client module as a runtime dependency of the AtomLyIntegration CommonsFeature client module
* Fixed register.py --all-projects-path and --all-gems-path arguments to
NOT register projects or gems that are within a template folder
Fixed reading of old pre-1.0 o3de_manifest.json files where the
"engines" key was a json array
* Changed how the relative target source directory is calculated when that source directroy resides outside of the engine root.
The final dirname component is used with a unique SHA256 has to form a <dirname>-<8 char SHA256> folder for installing files into
* Adding newline to the end of Atom_Bootstrap CMakeLists.txt
* Moving ly_enable_gems variants for Tools and Builders inside of PAL_TRAIT_BUILD_HOST_TOOLS block
* Adding a comment to AWSCore.ResourceMappingTool target to indicate that it is not a GEM_MODULE.
Furthermore it cannot be loaded with the Gem system because the library is in a different directory the executable
Bone transforms buffer is not valid when using Null renderer, which caused the test to fail since it reported an error and ultimately crashing as well. For now it's been worked around by checking the pointer is valid and not printing the error when null renderer is used, a task for the Atom team has been created to fix this properly in the future (ATOM-15807).
[ATOM-14544] Add Reset() function to IShaderVariantFinder
ShaderVariantAsyncLoader::Reset() now Shutdown and Init(). It clears
the cache of ShaderVariantAssets it keeps in memory.
Signed-off-by: garrieta <garrieta@amazon.com>
The problem was...
After a MaterialAsset reload, there could be two different versions of the MaterialAsset in memory: the old one and the reloaded one. The old one is still connected to buses and can send reinitialization messages when other things reload or reinitialize. So when the shader asset reloaded, both the old and new MaterialAsset were sending reinitialization messages. Material::OnMaterialAssetReinitialized was using the materialAsset parameter to initialize the Material, and the latest call to OnMaterialAssetReinitialized was for the *old* MaterialAsset.
The solution is to use the m_materialAsset member when reinitializing the Material. I also added checks in a couple places to skip unnecessary reinitialization, and added comments in the bus headers to warn developers about this issue.
Testing: Added a new step to ASV's MaterialHotReloadTest.bv.lua script for the error scenario, and this now passes. Ran ASV full test suite, both dx12 and vulkan, only known issues occurred.
- Added a pause button in imgui cpu profiler.
- Added a capture button to save cpu profiling data to a data file.
- Added some profile marks in both RPI and RHI.
Added new shader reinitialization signaling
This was done while working on "ATOM-15728 Shader Hot Reload Fails in Debug Build", but it turned out these changes did not actually fix the issue (or any other known hot-reload issue). Still, these improvements are appropriate as they correct logical oversights.
ShaderVariant was not listening to asset reloads. It needs to know when the ShaderVariantAsset reload happens so it can reinitialize it's members as well as propagate reinitialization messages. I added a member for the ShaderAsset as the class needs this to reinitialize itself. So now the class listens for reloads of both the ShaderVariantAsset and the ShaderAsset.
Shader was not listening for ShaderAsset reinitialization events.
Updated the API for ShaderReloadNotificationBus's OnShaderVariantReinitialized to include the ShaderVariant which is the most relevant information (the other information wasn't really being used anyway).
Testing: Ran ASV full test suite in dx12 and vulkan, saw only known issues. Tested hot reload in Material Editor and main Editor.

* Before we were skipping actors in case there was animation data present in the source asset to avoid having many duplicated actors.
* There was an issue though for simple test fbx files containing a full character with a test motion.
* The new rule is that we will be exporting actors on default whenever there is a skeleton including either skinning data or morph targets, as these usually are not included for animation assets to not increase disk space heavily.
* Tested with several of our assets and always showed the expected behavior with the new way.

Fixed Shader Hot-Reload Race Condition
ATOM-15728 Shader Hot Reload Fails in Debug Build
The main change was to add OnAssetReady handlers to each of the asset classes. See comments in ShaderAsset::OnAssetReady for a detailed explanation. In short, OnAssetReloaded gets missed while assets are being reloaded at the same time on multiple threads, but OnAssetReady is always called whenever connecting to the AssetBus because of its AssetConnectionPolicy.
The above change required the addition of a new AssetInitBus to call the PostLoadInit() functions. Because OnAssetReady connects to buses that are not mutex-protected, they have to be connected on the main thread. AssetInitBus::PostLoadInit is called every frame in RPISystem::SimulationTick. All Atom's asset handlers that need to do post-load initialization must connect to the AssetInitBus, and the asset will disconnect itself after initialization is complete.
We also need the Shader class to handle OnShaderAssetReinitialized to properly handle the shader reload.
With these changes I can click back and forth between "Blending On" and "Blending Off" many times (like 20 times) without issue.
Testing: AtomSampleViewer passes in dx12 and vulkan (except for known issues). Opened several AtomTest levels. Opened a multilayer material in material editor and made changes to the multilayer forward pass .shader file and saw proper reload.
* Creating Builder variant aliases for all Asset Gems
* Added an AssetGem template for creating an Asset Gem
The AssetGem template is meant for non-code Gems
* Updated the engine_template.py commands to use pathlib
Each of the four commands: create-template, create-from-template,
create-project and create-gem have been updated to use pathlib.Path or
any path manipulation
Fix several python errors when instantiating a template with missing
o3de objects.
For example attempting to use the create-project command with the
"DefaultGem" template would result in a python exception instaed of a
error log and a return value 0..
Added a **force** option to the engine_template commands
to force overriding of existing files
* Optimized search through text files when the create-template command is
run when attempting to replace the license text section
* Adding a Minimal Project Template that contains the minimal set of gems
as stated by UX
* Minor changes to the DefaultProject template. Added a license section to the EngineFinder.cmake
* Adding the MinimalProject to the engine.json file
