This fixes the long-standing problem with Dying Light where the game would
produce a black screen when running under Mesa. This happened because the
game's vertex shaders redeclare gl_VertexID, which is a GLSL builtin.
Mesa's GLSL compiler is a little more strict than others, and would not
compile them:
error: `gl_VertexID' redeclared
The allow_glsl_builtin_variable_redeclaration directive allows the shaders
to compile and the game to render. The game also requires OpenGL 4.4+ (GLSL
440), but does not request it explicitly. It must be forced with an
override, such as MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=4.5 and
MESA_GLSL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=450. A compatibility context is *not* required
and forcing one with 4.5COMPAT or allow_higher_compat_version results in
graphical artifacts.
Dead Island Definitive Edition is another Techland port on the same engine
with the same problems, so we set the
allow_glsl_builtin_variable_redeclaration option for that game as well.
v2 (Samuel Pitoiset):
- Rename allow_glsl_builtin_redeclaration ->
allow_glsl_builtin_variable_redeclaration

File: docs/README.WIN32 Last updated: 21 June 2013 Quick Start ----- ----- Windows drivers are build with SCons. Makefiles or Visual Studio projects are no longer shipped or supported. Run scons libgl-gdi to build gallium based GDI driver. This will work both with MSVS or Mingw. Windows Drivers ------- ------- At this time, only the gallium GDI driver is known to work. Source code also exists in the tree for other drivers in src/mesa/drivers/windows, but the status of this code is unknown. Recipe ------ Building on windows requires several open-source packages. These are steps that work as of this writing. - install python 2.7 - install scons (latest) - install mingw, flex, and bison - install pywin32 from here: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs get pywin32-218.4.win-amd64-py2.7.exe - install git - download mesa from git see https://www.mesa3d.org/repository.html - run scons General ------- After building, you can copy the above DLL files to a place in your PATH such as $SystemRoot/SYSTEM32. If you don't like putting things in a system directory, place them in the same directory as the executable(s). Be careful about accidentially overwriting files of the same name in the SYSTEM32 directory. The DLL files are built so that the external entry points use the stdcall calling convention. Static LIB files are not built. The LIB files that are built with are the linker import files associated with the DLL files. The si-glu sources are used to build the GLU libs. This was done mainly to get the better tessellator code. If you have a Windows-related build problem or question, please post to the mesa-dev or mesa-users list.
