Video

So sorta like double buffering but for geometry rather than frames? Seems like a pretty good solution, but whether or not it's usable sounds like it would depend on how much VRAM you have to work with and therefore how well optimised for performance the assets you're working with are.

I think some people are missing the point of this video, really. This is just rendering the world geometry. You still have to account for lighting, post processing, AI, game logic, shading, etc. And this is for a relatively simple scene that already began with a fairly low triangle count. What people forget is that a lot of these optimizations exist in a lot of games. Otherwise, with all of those fancy visuals that they use, they'd be running below single digit FPS. This isn't going to get you running cyberpunk on a PS2. But it is the foundation of world geometry optimization and is great for indie developers to know.

Do you have any thoughts on voxel rendering through ray tracing (or similar techniques) and octotrees? Is that slower than this dynamic meshing? Also maybe there could be optimizations by using branchless programming (which you're already using with bit masking). Less branches, less cache misses is my though. Could be totally irrelevant 😅

please show this to the shadows of doubt devs

I've been watching your newer videos and just realized that you figured out how to get positional voice chat with EOS???? HOW??!??!?

It was my dream to know how optimization works, and this video explained to visualize the process I don't know when will I need this, anyways thank you for great video!

How do you animate your code, when editing? E.g. 11:14 Looks very good and you know what happens.

Mid video i realized that watching the Sector´s Edge developer

inshallah i will understand this one day

you are built different man. just the animations to show this would take all my knowledge

Why transform feedback instead of writing directly to the SSBO? And why the CPU roundtrip instead of a compute shader to get the averages?

This is really great broken down! Thank you for sharing

Hi ! Do you plan to release the engine to the public by making it partially free/totally free/free and open source one day ? I would totally pay for it if I needed it, but I think everything should be available to everyone because I'm communist so I'm asking anyway :)

3:00 My boy really said 5 bits can’t hold 1..32 values

rdr2 does this on another level

But having to compile shaders is still a big issue right?...

Ou are yalking into my left ear sop it

What tools did you use to fo measurement for this? Perf or something else?

What did you study to be able to understand graphics to be able to do this kind of optimization?

Cool keep up 🆙 👍 😅

Yes, especially as we are rapidly approaching 1000hz displays. I myself just picked up a 360hz QD-OLED and love it.

Thats master degree stuff, gj

Cool. Now just optimize the remaining 99.5% of an actual modern game engine. :P

Absolutely excellent.

12k is crazy

#bringbackSE

i searched your game but it was shutdown, can you at least send the files for me so i can try it?

please bring it back! at least for me...

Can this be done in Unreal? (I know there's landscapes that use something like this, I'd like my own implementation for a procedurally generated, infinit desert map)

Valheim is such a good game though. ❤️

Kaysh???

sectors edge…

It's my dream to make a game that could run on a ps2 then upscale the mechanics and game physics until you need a modern computer to run it

This video is incredible

I've been saying this everywhere. There is no way todays mid-end hardware cant run EVERYTHING. There is so much raw power in todays PC parts that any game should run perfectly, but most run like shit. Why? Dev's are lazy. Its so easy being a developer nowadays, noone knows whats happening on hardware and memory level. I always mention the "Fast inverse square root" from Quake, its an amazing way of optimizing tedious stuff for machines. Now its obsolete, but it shows how devs have to think outside the box and have greater understanding of how things really work.

Amazing video.

how is bro not famous

fucking einstein out here in his own league

this is really cool. I enjoyed this, optimization is an art, and you are a master :D

this looks really off in a game with more detailed objects but still good idea

Damn bruh

hearing Vercidium curse its like a fever dream

Hey I loved your video. Can you please tell me how you made the visuals? Of the cube and everything? Rotating triangles, animations etc? Damn really impressed 🎉

COD could never

How in the world is this man creating these animations

Жалко нет нарезки, как он это дебажил

This video is clickbait. I came for 12000 FPS but got 17000.

insane result for an even more insane workload! 👏

its obvious that "sinking" is used for easier understanding and wont be viable with any other type of mesh and//or game, however the explanation is still great!

What's crazy is that since you are GPU bound, your program probably would scale really nicely with better hardware. It's interesting to see in practice the old adage "make as many assumptions as possible on your code". Which when you literally only ever want to draw cubes in a grid, are quite a few. lol
