cmft - cubemap filtering tool

Cross-platform open-source command-line cubemap filtering tool.

It reaches very fast processing speeds by utilizing both multi-core CPU and OpenCL GPU at the same time! (check perfomance charts)

Download

cmft - Windows 64bit
cmft - Linux 64bit (updated: 16. Mar 2015)
cmft - OSX 64bit (updated: 16. Mar 2015)
In case you need 32bit binaries, compile from source.

cmft-cover

  • Supported input/output formats: *.dds, *.ktx, *.hdr, *.tga.
  • Supported input/output types: cubemap, cube cross, latlong, face list, horizontal/vertical strip, octant.

Remark !

  • If you are running OpenCL procesing on the same GPU that it connected to your monitor you may experience the following problem: when you are processing big cubemaps (~1024 face size) with small 'glossScale' parameter (<7 for example), OpenCL kernels may take a long time to execute and that may cause the operative system to step in and kill the display/gpu driver in the middle of processing! In case this happens, the processing will continue on CPU. You will get the expected results but the processing will run slower. To avoid this you can:

Building

git clone git://github.com/dariomanesku/cmft.git
cd cmft
make
  • After calling make, _projects folder will be created with all supported project files. Deleting _projects folder is safe at any time.
  • All compiler generated files will be in _build folder. Again, deleting _build folder is safe at any time.

Windows

  • Visual Studio
    • Visual Studio solution will be located in _projects/vs20XX/.
  • MinGW
    • MinGW Makefile will be located in _projects/gmake-mingw-gcc/.
    • Project can be build from the root directory by running make mingw-gcc-release64 (or similar).
  • Remember to edit CMFT variable in runtime/cmft_win.bat accordingly to match the build configuration you are using.

Linux

  • Makefile will be loacted in _projects/gmake-linux/.
  • Project can be build from the root directory by running make linux-release64 (or similar).
  • Vim users can source .ide.vim and make use of Build() and Execute() functions from inside Vim.
  • Remember to edit CMFT variable in runtime/cmft_lin.sh accordingly to match the build configuration you are using.

OS X

  • XCode
    • XCode solution will be located in _projects/xcode4/.
    • XCode project contains one scheme with 4 build configurations (debug/release 32/64bit). Select desired build configuration manually and/or setup schemes manually as desired. In case you need 64bit build, it is possible to just set Build Settings -> Architectures -> Standard Architectures (64-bit Intel) (x86_64).
    • Also it is probably necessary to manually set runtime directory (it is not picking it from genie for some reason). This is done by going to "Product -> Scheme -> Edit Scheme... -> Run cmftDebug -> Options -> Working Directory (Use custom working directory)" and specifying runtime/ directory from cmft root folder.
  • Makefile
    • Makefile can be found in _projects/gmake-osx/.
    • Project can be build from the root directory by running make osx-release64 (or similar).
  • Vim users can source .ide.vim and make use of Build() and Execute() functions from inside Vim.
  • Remember to edit CMFT variable in runtime/cmft_osx.sh accordingly to match the build configuration you are using.

Other

  • Also other compilation options may be available, have a look inside _projects directory.
  • Additional build configurations will be available in the future. If one is there and not described here in this document, it is probably not yet set up properly and may not work out-of-the-box as expected without some care.

Known issues

  • Linux GCC build noticeably slower comparing to Windows build (haven't yet figured out why).
  • PVRTexTool is not properly opening mipmapped *.ktx files from cmft. This appears to be the problem with the current version of PVRTexTool. Has to be further investigated.

Performance

cmft was compared with the popular CubeMapGen tool for processing performance. Test machine: Intel i5-3570 @ 3.8ghz, Nvidia GTX 560 Ti 448.

Filter settings:

  • Gloss scale: 8
  • Gloss bias: 1
  • Mip count: 8
  • Exclude base: false

Test case #1:

  • Src face size: 256
  • Dst face size: 256
  • Lighting model: phongbrdf

Test case #2:

  • Src face size: 256
  • Dst face size: 256
  • Lighting model: blinnbrdf

Test case #3:

  • Src face size: 512
  • Dst face size: 256
  • Lighting model: phongbrdf

Test case #4:

  • Src face size: 512
  • Dst face size: 256
  • Lighting model: blinnbrdf
