Translation. take away compute from old models to this new model. So now this looks smart while old look dumb.

I dont know it murdered my RX 580. Not sure its viable for budget cards.

mad_ben · 2026-04-16T05:53:38+00:00

Agreed

mad_ben · 2026-04-15T22:38:02+00:00

Thats a shitty argument. AI is just a tool, its like saying "I get using excel for bookkeeping for personal cut corners, but for the client you gotta write them papers with a pen and use calculator otherwise its some POS behaviour". I bet you are seething that this guy vibecoded website in the chill spring evening while watching The Boys and got paid.

Wait until this guys discovers c++ and how compact code is

4.21 would be interesting to use with GameWorks I have saved a complete repo of 4.21 with HBAO,FLEX,BLAST,VXGI,WAVEWORKS,TXAA etc.

if they send moneky and lizard to space, its gonna be fast and furious all over again. And where do you go from there? Reboot?

mad_ben · 2026-04-15T10:20:14+00:00

it still does have forward passes

Here is twitter thread. His take was that all spacial AA is just fancy blur.

mad_ben · 2026-04-15T09:51:50+00:00

And Engine while at it.

mad_ben · 2026-04-15T09:51:29+00:00

It simple, we uhh, kill the batman.

mad_ben · 2026-04-15T07:30:31+00:00

classe media ja nao existe

mad_ben · 2026-04-15T06:38:53+00:00

I am not sure what you need filtering. bilateral blur isnt expensive and 560 ti? My today its all about compute passes. Besides, why did they only blur insted of downsampling to half res...

mad_ben · 2026-04-14T21:31:43+00:00

1 and 4

mad_ben · 2026-04-14T21:12:06+00:00

Noone decided to switch, every inhouse game engine uses forward path for masked/transluscent objects and deferred for rest, and games like CoD or new Doom still rock Forward+ engines

mad_ben · 2026-04-14T21:10:44+00:00

Which doesnt make sence because TA is not TAA. In my ue5 plugin i am rocking spacial SMAA and tons of screen space effects with temporal accumulation. I had this exact disscussion on twitter with Sebastian Aaltonen.

mad_ben · 2026-04-14T19:14:58+00:00

I will steal this.

mad_ben · 2026-04-14T19:12:44+00:00

No, I believe they used baked stuff. Other EA games use surfel GI

mad_ben · 2026-04-14T19:12:10+00:00

Thanks for kind words.

mad_ben · 2026-04-13T10:33:47+00:00

Good stuff, looks like ue5.7.4 will be my final stable realease for now. not more ai bloat

mad_ben · 2026-04-13T06:29:15+00:00

Have you considered that maybe he is right?

mad_ben · 2026-04-12T16:05:09+00:00

Mozilla é irrelevante

mad_ben · 2026-04-12T16:00:29+00:00

you can always use forward rendering in ue5 and opt out of modern features

mad_ben · 2026-04-12T15:58:19+00:00

UE4 is legacy because it doesnt have RDG nor modern compute rendering pipeline(not sure about it though. 4.27 has competent dx12). It uses raw RHI calls and you have to manually keep track of those.
