First discussed in 03/2012 during the early [[Rembrandt]] days, Zan came up with patches demonstratinng how to create an XML-configurable rendering pipeline. | First discussed in 03/2012 during the early [[Rembrandt]] days, Zan came up with patches demonstratinng how to create an XML-configurable rendering pipeline. | ||
Back then, this work was considered to look pretty promising <ref>{{cite web | |||

Rembrandt's developer (FredB) suggested to extend the format to avoid duplicating the stages when you have more than one viewport, i.e. specifying a pipeline as a template, with conditions like in effects, and have the current camera layout refer the pipeline that would be duplicated, resized and positioned for each declared viewport <ref>{{cite web | |||

Zan's original patches can still be found in his "newcameras" branch: https://gitorious.org/~an/fg/zans-flightgear/commits/newcameras which allows user to define the rendering pipeline in preferences.xml. | |||
At that point, it didn't have everything Rembrandt's pipeline needs, but most likely could be easily enhanced to support those things. | At that point, it didn't have everything Rembrandt's pipeline needs, but most likely could be easily enhanced to support those things. | ||
