I originally added these in 2b1d1038a6, for both the TPipelineFunction and the size. The size was moved into the header in fdcd2b7d00 (making the size functions obsolete), but it seems that the functions themselves are no longer needed now.
I think I didn't use this approach before because it would have required ComponentFormatTable and ComponentCountRow to be templated, which would end up resulting in lines that were too long and thus wrapped in awkward places. (I *think* they didn't get inferred properly.) Now that we only need TPipelineFunction, the templating is not needed, and this ends up being a more readable version of the version with the wrapper functions.
This adds PR 10890's new setting to the Android GUI. I'm curious to see
if any Android users might get a performance improvement from it.
Due to how our settings work on Android, I haven't implemented disabling
the checkbox when the graphics backend doesn't support both GS and VS
for point/line expansion, but I don't think that's critical to have.
The old calculation was stride * (max_index + 1), which fails if stride is less than the size of a component (for instance, if float XYZ positions are used, and the stride was set to 4 (i.e. sizeof(float)) instead of 12 (i.e. 3 * sizeof(float)), it would be missing the last 8 bytes of the final element in the array. Or, if stride was set to 0, then no bytes would be recorded at all (though that's not a useful configuration so it's unlikely to actually exist).
I'm not aware of any games affected by this issue.
This should fix recording the wall in the staircase leading to the basement in Luigi's Mansion (though I haven't tested it, as I don't own a copy of Luigi's Mansion). This uses NormalIndex3, and the index for the normal vector (generally 0x02XX or 0x01XX) there is always lower than the tangent or binormal (generally 0x07XX). Other games seem to usually have a similar range of indices for the normal, tangent, and binormal, so this issue wouldn't affect them.
In most cases, games will use the same type for all vertex components (either Index8 or Index16 or Direct). However, RS2's deflection towers use Index16 for the texture coordinate and Index8 for everything else, meaning the texture coordinates were recorded incorrectly (the first byte was used, so only indices 0 and 1 were recorded instead of 0 through 0x0192). Worse still, some background elements in RS2 use direct positions but indexed normals or texture coordinates, and those would not be recorded at all.
This is a regression from b5fd35f951.
