Overdraw in Overdrive - Self Shadow
http://blog.selfshadow.com/publications/overdraw-in-overdrive
This is a tweaked version of a journal entry for the Microsoft Game Developer Network, that’s been cleansed of any non-public Xbox 360 specifics. If you’re a registered developer, I encourage you to check out the uncut edition available there, for full implementation details. One indispensable display mode is. Figures 1 shows the isolated depth complexity and overdraw, respectively, of a couple of characters within a scene. The right-hand image is rather unexciting, as only a single layer of drawing ...

In search of the perfect pixel. It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for. Perhaps searching can help. Hi, my name is Colin Barré-Brisebois. This is my personal blog about real-time rendering and video-game development. These are my ramblings, not my employer's :). Stephen Hill (self shadow). RT @ aras p.

Direct3D, as any 3D API on PC, has two main goals:. Provide a low overhead graphics API. Provide a single API that works on different hardware. Performance on PC is not optimal.

Perpendicular Possibilities - Self Shadow
http://blog.selfshadow.com/2011/10/17/perp-vectors
Figure 1: Major axes for original (left), swizzle (mid) and perpendicular (right) vectors. Two months ago, there was a question. And subsequent discussion) on Twitter as to how to go about generating a perpendicular unit vector, preferably without branching. It seemed about time that I finally post something more complete on the subject, since there are various ways to go about doing this, as well as a few traps awaiting the unwary programmer. Abs(dot(u, UP) , somewhat arbitrary epsilon. In a neat little.

Blending in Detail - Self Shadow
http://blog.selfshadow.com/2012/07/10/blending-in-detail
I’ve added a new article,. Written together with Colin Barré-Brisebois. On the topic of blending normal maps. We go through various techniques that are out there, as well as a neat alternative ( Reoriented Normal Mapping ) from Colin that I helped to optimise. This is by no means a. Analysis particularly as we focus on detail mapping so we might return to the subject at a later date and tie up some loose ends. In the meantime, I hope you find the article useful. Please let us know in the comments!
