Apparently UE5.5 has nanite for skeletal meshes now. The question is how performant will it be? He's getting like 25 fps, but that's on a laptop of unknown make, and with several dozen characters on screen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-I1Y0s_tZa0
If you look at the example Nanite meshes that come in Epic made projects like the Valley of the Ancient they're not raw 1GB meshes. So the idea that using Nanite means you never reduce the polycount on meshes or do any kind of optimization isn't something that's practical. Even for non-realtime rendered projects (eg: film)…
I'm still a bit confused by the care-free "polycount doesn't matter" attitude of Nanite. I know it performs amazingly well for static meshes, but I can't wrap my head around the logistics of importing 5M-poly meshes into UE5. 1. If you're importing ~1GB+ FBX files into UE5, wouldn't that be impractical just for syncing…
i think youre conflading two issues : one that is nanite beeing used as a "mop" on bad optimization skills, and another where you complain about the lack of optimization of last games. Both are true in my opinion, but Nanite, like all the other new advancements, is a tool, that if correctly used has clear advantages and…
Nanite-like tech is in the chinese-market-specific (for now, anyway) branch of Unity. Seems fair to expect this stuff in time to show up in other engines as well. In my opinion disk space/download size concerns will make sure this tech gets applied very selectively on projects that actually have to ship. Download size…
there's certainly niche cases where nanite shines, but for general purpose development, one can achieve plenty good results with texture maps and lighting. Oh, another thing to consider is that Nanite will lock you into using UE5, as far as I know no other game engine has this tech. If UE5 decides to pull a Unity, you…
