VK_KHR_sampler_mirror_clamp_to_edge
VK_KHR_sampler_mirror_clamp_to_edge extends the set of sampler address modes
to include an additional mode
(VK_SAMPLER_ADDRESS_MODE_MIRROR_CLAMP_TO_EDGE) that effectively uses a
texture map twice as large as the original image in which the additional
half of the new image is a mirror image of the original image.
This new mode relaxes the need to generate images whose opposite edges match by using the original image to generate a matching “mirror image”. This mode allows the texture to be mirrored only once in the negative s, t, and r directions.
Extending VkSamplerAddressMode:
VK_SAMPLER_ADDRESS_MODE_MIRROR_CLAMP_TO_EDGE
Creating a sampler with the new address mode in each dimension
VkSamplerCreateInfo createInfo =
{
VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_SAMPLER_CREATE_INFO // sType
// Other members set to application-desired values
};
createInfo.addressModeU = VK_SAMPLER_ADDRESS_MODE_MIRROR_CLAMP_TO_EDGE;
createInfo.addressModeV = VK_SAMPLER_ADDRESS_MODE_MIRROR_CLAMP_TO_EDGE;
createInfo.addressModeW = VK_SAMPLER_ADDRESS_MODE_MIRROR_CLAMP_TO_EDGE;
VkSampler sampler;
VkResult result = vkCreateSampler(
device,
&createInfo,
&sampler);
