Quake3 uses .shader files to define custom shaders, or Materials in Ogre-speak. When a surface texture is mentioned in a level file, it includes no file extension meaning that it can either be a standard texture image (+lightmap) if there is only a .jpg or .tga file, or it may refer to a custom shader if a shader with that name is included in one of the .shader files in the scripts/ folder. Because there are multiple shaders per file you have to parse all the .shader files available to know if there is a custom shader available. This class is designed to parse all the .shader files available and save their settings for future use.
I choose not to set up Material instances for shaders found since they may or may not be used by a level, so it would be very wasteful to set up Materials since they load texture images for each layer (apart from the lightmap). Once the usage of a shader is confirmed, a full Material instance can be set up from it. Because this is a subclass of ScriptLoader, any files mentioned will be searched for in any path or archive added to the ResourceGroupManager::WORLD_GROUP_NAME group. See ResourceGroupManager for details. */ class Quake3ShaderManager : public ScriptLoader, public Singleton
