This makes incremental recompilation faster when changing static
interned strings.

Fixed shadows have fixed rendering distance. Also they don't have a
swimming (blinking) effect on camera movement/rotation.

This was SVN commit r23333.
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.
The function was located in the wrong file, because it is not logically
related to IGUIObject settings.
The separate file allows the various users to include it without
including the GUIRenderer.
This was SVN commit r22605.
Everything is char* now, so we don't need to mess around with different
string types.
Done with:

This was SVN commit r16183.
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.
Switch all the constant strings in graphics code to use the new
variables.
This avoids the cost of instantiating CStrInterns at runtime every
frame.
This was SVN commit r13906.
Add shadow filtering (PCF) option.
Fix ugly shadow saturation in old lighting mode.
Fix fancy water shader.
Fix camera matrix computation.
Support scissoring of camera frustum.
Optimise vertex skinning.
Inline various matrix functions.
Support filtering of the list of submitted models before a rendering
pass, for more precise culling.
Optimise water renderer (fixes#721, based on patch by ortalo).
Use scissoring when generating reflection/refraction textures.
Skip reflection/refraction texture generation when no water is visible.
Render alpha-blended objects differently (fixes#434).
Reduce shadow swimming effects.
This was SVN commit r9814.
