Add export to Amber option

Open dj2 opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

There have been a few requests to Amber (github.com/google/amber) to add an export option to GAPID to generate an AmberScript file which reproduces a rendering issue found in GAPID.

I'm not familiar with the internals of GAPID or how it would work from your side, but happy to help from the amber side if there are questions or needed features.

This is a very interesting idea, yet we realistically won't be able to work on it anytime soon.

GAPID can trace-replay a wide kind of Vulkan workloads, is AmberScript rich enough to express these? E.g. does it have texture support?

We've started to add textures into AmberScript. Currently they have to be encoded into buffers but have been considering allowing them to be loaded to files. If there are things that are missing they can also be added.
