Rendering options use this capability to simplify their implementation.
This makes it easier to add new options.

This was SVN commit r24228.
This moves the renderer options into their own class to:@
- allow one to only include the rendering options, not the whole
renderer header, when one wants access to rendering options.
- centralise rendering changes and their side-effects.
- clean up code.

This was SVN commit r22610.
Remove unused (wrong copy&paste) includes from 86fcf0de8c in
JSInterface_ModIo.*, initially hinted at by leper.
Remove a forward declaration in JSInterface_Console.h that should have
become an include with 4b1297b328, because CxPrivate must be declared
before its reference too.
Remove a forward declaration in JSInterface_Mod.h from 64bfa089af that
should have been the include added in af03c72f76 which in turn omitted
to remove this forward declaration.
Remove a forward declaration in Renderer.h that became unused with
1ddd24bb8c.

Do some intersection tests on the CPU so that the silhouette render
passes only have to draw models/patches that might actually contribute
to silhouettes, saving the CPU and GPU cost of rendering more objects
than necessary.
This was SVN commit r15483.
Change the shader itself so that the effects look nicer and are more
consistent across settings.
Rework the water mesh generation (simpler system). Fix a few issues.
May work oddly with Atlas since I haven't been able to compile yet.
Refs #1875 (maybe fix), Fixes#2077 (I'll assume it does), Fixes#2114
(assumption again), refs #48.
This was SVN commit r15473.
Previously we had a single culling frustum based on the main camera, and
any object outside the frustum would never get rendered, even if it
should actually contribute to shadows or reflections/refractions. This
caused ugly pop-in effects in the shadows and reflections while
scrolling.
Extend the renderer to support multiple cull groups, each with a
separate frustum and with separate lists of submitted objects, so that
shadows and reflections will render the correctly culled sets of
objects.
Update the shadow map generation to compute the (hopefully) correct
bounds and matrices for this new scheme.
Include terrain patches in the shadow bounds, so hills can cast shadows
correctly.
Remove the code that tried to render objects slightly outside the camera
frustum in order to reduce the pop-in effect, since that was a
workaround for the lack of a proper fix.
Remove the model/patch filtering code, which was used to cull objects
that were in the normal camera frustum but should be excluded from
reflections/refractions, since that's redundant now too.
Inline DistanceToPlane to save a few hundred usecs per frame inside
CCmpUnitRenderer::RenderSubmit.
Fixes#504, #579.
This was SVN commit r15445.
BoundingSphere is similar to a bounding box, but more spherical.
SOverlaySphere is useful for visualising BoundingSphere (it's quite
inefficient and should only be used for debug functionality).
Normalise the camera frustum clipping planes, so that IsSphereVisible
gives the correct result.
This was SVN commit r15261.
Replace unifont with CFont and CFontManager, since the h_mgr interface
was
needlessly inconvenient.
Load the font textures through CTextureManager, to support dynamic
reloading (e.g. when resetting GL state - see #741).
Add CFontMetrics as a convenient wrapper for code that just wants to
measure text.
Fixes#1117.
This was SVN commit r14016.
