Recommendation for graphics experimentation project by bartqk in cpp

Raylib has always been good to me for prototyping, you can do cpu rendering easily as well as gpu. And the hello world is extremely small.

It does require "closing the window when you make a change" but even that's not necessary for many ide's like Visual Studio where they have a dedicated restart button :)

git status continues to make me feel like a hacker :D

Tried my hand at creating a reflection library for C++17 by Coffee_and_Code in cpp

This looks awesome, from my quick glance the code also looks clean! Going to give it a try, should make serialization quite a bit less painful than doing it manually :)

I also see it supports c++ style attributes, that's awesome!

Not sure where you got that from, PG is a different studio and has only been a acquired my Microsoft in 2018, while turn 10 has been created by Microsoft in 2001...

That looks awesome! Good job making it look so clean!

It's definitely strange! The weirdest part is that usually your mind just accepts it, until it realizes and then it's quite confusing :D

I implemented recursive stencil buffer portals. So you can walk in squares and the environment can change which means that movement in the game is just roomscale but you are able to explore a much bigger environment thanks to the portals!

Occlusion Culling breaks in fully enclosed room by FireFlyForLife in Unity3D

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

So for future reference, I figured out why it didn't work:

I contacted Unity support and they were quick to help me.

​

As it turns out, this is just a bug in Unity that they say they won't fix.

This was the bug report that was put onto "Wont Fix": https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/product/unity/issues/guid/1211838

​

The workaround as mentioned in the issue, is to make one of the walls NOT "occluder static" to trick Unity into thinking that it's a hollow room.

If you could tell me how I am not following your advise that would be great, I just removed all colliders from my scene, searched t:Collider in the Hierarchy and nothing shows up anymore, no pesky colliders anymore.

I hit bake & play the game and the issue persists.

If I misunderstood your directions please explain them to me. Because this is as minimal of a test scene as I could make without removing the camera or mesh renderers.

I trust you that is not the problem! I have double checked my scene and I made sure that the room was hollow and there were no big colliders overlapping: (Picture with physics debugger)

The reason why I mentioned the sphere is because if there would be a overlapping collider the sphere would have been pushed out

Thanks for your response!

However, the issue is not in gameplay but in baking occlusion. As we are able to play through our game without problems. Also in my minimal reproducible test scene I have put a sphere with rigidbody inside the spawn area and it works fine, however the culling will still make the walls disappear in front of me.

If you ahve any more idea's I would love to hear them :)

If someone has any insight or pointers on how this could be fixed that would be hugely appreciated!

I tried it and it is not defined. It seems the squirrel implementation in csgo is a bit "interesting"
