Una petición de un forero de Vandal para #DoomTheDarkAges. Si al final el dichoso inventito no lo quiere casi nadie porque la iluminación "tradicional" ya hacía un buen trabajo en ese frente. Por otro lado, la gente no tiende a jugar quedándose quieto y fijándose hasta en el más mínimo detalle, y más en este tipo de juegos.
¡No al #RayTracing! ¡No al #PathTracing!
¿En serio que la gente se fija en estos detalles mientras juega? Como para interesarme en los triple A de última generación.
¡APU de #AMD is coming como mi futura gráfica!
Soft shadows in voxel renders: control the size of the sun to sharpen/soften the shadows with `Sun Angular Diameter` in Avoyd `Tools > Light and Atmosphere`

You can make isometric #Voxel renders of any Minecraft map, voxel model or heightmap landscape you can import into Avoyd
#HalfLife2RTX seems good, but is still a work in progress that will take a lot of time to tune since RayTracing kills performance and not all bugs have been ironed out.
Just realised that in my software GPU wavefront pathtracing I could implement efficient virtual memory by storing any 'page miss' paths and then sort by page, load/unload pages and process the relevant paths.
Does anyone know if this has been done before?
I'm just going to put here Pattrick Kennedy thougths from ServeTheHome about the #BoltGraphics Zeus:
The big elephant in the room is NVIDIA and the CUDA ecosystem. That's is going to be really difficult to break without something that disrupts the market.
Path traced procedurally generated #voxel world with the atmosphere volumetric shadows we fixed in the beta.

I have to say, compared to the Radeon 9700XTX, the #RTX5080 RayTracing performance is a kick on the nuts to AMD.
I wonder if RDNA4 will be able to top that performance, but my guess is they won't.
For those asking versus an RTX 4000 vs RTX 5000 on a laptop, wait if you can.
Unless you have a very good offer on an old RTX 4000 Mobile series, you may wait for RTX 5000 with their better Ray Tracing and DLSS4 performance.
Great, now #DoomTheDarkAges requires an #RTX too.
Well, both #IndianaJones and this game use #idTech, so there should be no surprise there.
Ladies an gentlemen, the flood gates have opened.
Some fun news: I’ve completely removed all paywalls from themer.dev and open-sourced the #pwa code. Also, no more need to input an email address to get your themes, just pick your colors, your apps/wallpapers, and click the download button! That also means that the previously premium wallpapers are now free, including the new 3D (#pathtracing ) ones, like this one! “Exhibit” wallpaper rendered with the “Lucid” (dark variant) and “Solarized” (light variant) color sets.

Implementing iridescence with thin film interference in my rendering engine!
Avoyd v0.25.0 Full and Free Demo out with significantly improved Heightmap and Image import, and support for Minecraft Pale Garden Biome.
"RayTracing is just a gimmick". Not anymore, now is REQUIRED.
Good luck non-RTX users.
I do like the IDEA of ray/path tracing, but the hardware was not ready to do a full game that way. Shout out to @AdoredTV for showing what could be possible.
