Issues with December 2014

[JoeMama54]

4J_Render_PC mostly works with December 2014 but there are some issues.

1. void TextureBind(int layer, int idx); needs to be implemented.
2. The shaders need to be updated for it too since anything that emits light is broken.

The texture issue should be fixed in #4, although I haven't gotten around merging it yet

Once the 4J_Render library is all matched up, I will save that version of the source code in another branch, so the main branch can contain render patches, optimizations and other shenanigans that make the LCE experience better

I think having December 2014 as another branch would be the best. December 2014 is missing all the Windows64 stuff that October has and the 4j-Libs are slightly different. The shader bytecode is also different in December and void TextureBind(int layer, int idx); was added for rendering horses it appears)

December 2014's lighting issue is due to that code using an optimization that was previously only used on consoles. In order to support it, you'd have to reverse the new console shader OR just switch back to the earlier way of packing light in LCE, which the latter is the easiest (and more compatible) way to do it.

A bigger potential issue with December 2014 is that, after fixing this, night time appears to be overly red and bright on this custom version of the library. This is probably due to another latent issue with the December 2014 code that isn't strictly relevant to this, but not sure. The issue doesn't occur on the original 4J_Render so it's possibly an issue with something in this codebase.

But yeah, implementing the new TextureBind method would be useful as that improves support for the Horse model

2 Has been fixed with commits 7aeed74 & ebfeeac
