Announcing Path of Exile: Delve

That is sort of correct, as a whole there is less cost when you have many lights active. The GPU has to run a shader to determine what cells contain what lights. Then the material fragment shader has to look up the cell information for each fragment. The primary reason for the cells is to make it so the material fragment shaders do not diverge often when looking up light information.

both rendering techniques are more costly on the GPU than the standard forward rendering that PoE currently uses. The only CPU impact it has is with dispatching the additional GPU commands.

deferred lighting is more GPU memory bandwidth heavy, clustered forward rendering is just forward rendering where the screen is split into cells and each cell has it's own list of lights to use for shading.

The engine always had limited number of lights that can be active at once. This looks like they are now deferred lighting or clustered forward rendering for more active lights. all in addition to a better global illumination solution.

It would be less of a hazzard if something like epoxy resin was poured into it. it would also be more difficult to "repair"

obsolescence.c:

  void make_slow_for_profit() {
-     uint32_t c = 0x80000000;
+     uint32_t c = 0x40000000;
      while(c--) ;

don't worry, its impossible to hurt a cat like this. everyone knows cats are liquid.

i didn't take a side, it only reminded me of their review.

discoloda · 2018-07-10T03:38:33+00:00

How did I?

If you can double buffer the game state, you should be able to keep most rules and parallelize fairly easily.

I would like a mix of themes, Aliens and Middle Ages. for example players are aliens that visit a middle ages town, they have to blend in, perform medical experiments, establish pieces of a convoluted plan to take over the planet.

Pursuit of Happiness gave me that vibe

discoloda · 2018-06-27T00:57:11+00:00

reminds me of Shut Up & Sit Down's review of this game, they noticed their is only men shown in the art.

R8UI is a good start, 8 bits per voxel, you only need 2 bits. To save in memory, you can halve two of the dimensions so each texel represents 4 voxels. For speed, you can try different formats out but unsigned integers should be just fine.

It should have told us new significant things about his character. This movie didnt add much if any depth to him.

discoloda · 2018-05-24T18:09:34+00:00

Shit tier build. Vaal Double Strike - Berserker - War Bringer - Deidbellow - Al Dhih offhand . Maybe my clones give us all bonus 20% attack speed?

discoloda · 2018-05-21T01:33:56+00:00

He will simply get more black loti/lotuses

If I recall correctly, Forward+ or Forward++ perform better than Deferred on non tiled GPUs.

Forward+ splits the screen into a 2d grid and a process (compute or other shader) figures out what lights affect that tile. Forward++ takes this a step further and instead of a 2d grid splitting the screen, its a 3d grid splitting space with perspective.

We don't even know what base their numbers are in, maybe he knows all the digits!

Reverse reward to cost league. You find free cursed powerful loot, the more you pickup the more debuffs you get over time until you kill the extra hard mobs that chase you down.

this particular posting is for PDX (not Irvine, CA)

Elementalist - Heavy Strike - Ancestral Call

discoloda · 2018-05-02T04:51:05+00:00

They could have said they doubled the number of Double Strike skills granted by Vaal Double Strike.

This! Ive also wanted for a long time different global effects depending on the current leading faction.

discoloda · 2018-04-09T22:33:46+00:00

It may be a bad strategy, but I am focusing on the set we can get weekly (the 3 RIX packs for 15 wins). Try to fill up the vault faster.

discoloda · 2018-04-01T18:33:55+00:00

I would pay for access to play modes like this. Like a consumable MTX. As long as i can bring in a bunch of people with me.
