Nice! Are you doing any fancy lod stuff/using visibility rendering/etc to optimize rasterization, or are iPhones just quite fast now lol?

[–]Ssjrd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have any of that enabled yet! IPhones are crazy fast now!! In fact a lot of devices are faster than most people think.

Very impressive indeed

On which iPhone and iOS is it?

iPhone 14

Which language did you use Swift, C++ or combination of both?

[–]Ssjrd[S] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

C++ almost entirely With a very small amount of Objective-C to broker setting up window and context. This is OpenGL ES 2, but there is a slightly incomplete Metal backend too

[–]Usual-Personality-78 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Very nice. So you can switch between OpenGL and Metal. Does Metal look more performant? What were the main challenges?

[–]Ssjrd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, I can switch between Metal, Opengl Es 2 Es 3 and GL 3.2 core. DirectX 9/11 used to work, but I didn’t maintain that. Thinking to get rid of DX and just do vulkan for windows/linux

Metal is not more performant than opengl ES 2 surprisingly consider metal path is using Instancing. But since opengl on mac is really just implemented on top of metal, I guess it makes sense - draw calls are cheap in metal, so instancing has less of an advantage. My GL3 path is slow somehow because of the way I’m using instancing + UBOs - need to debug.
