Re: Theoretical LOD system?
in general if you look at most algorithms that get widespread adoption in graphics it is because they cover the highest % of use cases. for instance you can do depth sorting in a variety of ways. but zbuffer is used 99.9% of the time because it is simple, efficient and works 100% of the time. its sort of a Darwinian… -
Re: Theoretical LOD system?
so to come back on a couple of the points made first is regarding having to get the full res LOD for the calculation, unless the silhouette is completely different from LOD - LOD then it wouldn't matter, if the lower LOD starts taking up too much for that res, then step it up to the next LOD. the second, regarding pushing… -
Re: Theoretical LOD system?
Really interesting Idea, but the problem would be that you always have to render the complete scene (without lodding?) for every frame and do a really heavy-weight pixel-calculation stuff. checking how many pixels on the screen have the same colour will impact your performance (your worst case would be cheking all pixels…
