- the article discusses how to implement a printf statement that can be used from a shader
- presents a workaround that allows HLSL 2021 to convert strings into a char array for writing into a buffer
- code examples are presented with HLSL and D3D12
- the article presents a walkthrough on the steps required to generate simplex noise
- shows a comparison between texture and function-based noise generation
- additionally presents steps required to ensure that noise is tileable
- the article discusses the portability of different methods to calculate noises/hashes across GPUs
- comparing methods to calculate, float, int, and functions as well as sampling differences
We are Threedy, a dynamic startup that emerged as a spin-off from the Fraunhofer Institute for Computer Graphics Research IGD in Darmstadt in 2020.
Threedy develops and distributes instant3Dhub - the first Visual Computing as a Service technology. It enables the productive use of Mixed Reality and digital work scenarios in any industrial applications in a simple and straightforward manner.
As an Unreal Developer, you will be involved in the development of our distributed rendering system and work on integrating our technology with the Unreal Engine.
- the video provides an overview of different tessellation modes
- visually explains where the tessellation is applied and how different modes subdivide differently
- code examples are provided with OpenGL
- the video tutorial shows how to create a water surface through the use of vertex displacement
- the effect is implemented using a visual shader editor using Unity and Unreal
- the article discusses the complexities of using operations on the surface of a sphere
- presents issues of different encodings and extra difficulties with operations such as rotations, precision, distortions, etc.
