| | | | | Compute Shaders in D3D12 Why Talking About Compute Shaders Direct Compute has been part of DirectX since version 10. Its usages are multiple, but in general we can use the compute pipeline whenever we want to calculate something without the need of a rasterizer. This ability to generically adapt to any type of calculus makes the compute pipeline really useful in many areas, not only for real-time applications, but also for many science-related computations. In science, every operation that involves the word "GPGPU" (General Purpose GPU) has some kind of compute shader usage in it: high performance computing, physics simulations, classification, image processing are just to scratch the surface among the multitude of use cases. In a game engine, compute shader... | |

| | | | | [AI summary] The author discusses the complexities and challenges of implementing D3D12's binding model in vkd3d-proton, highlighting the intricacies of bindless resources, local root signatures, and the transition to SM 6.6. They emphasize the need for careful handling of descriptors, validation, and the impact of hardware differences. The author also mentions the benefits of AMD's GCN architecture for bindless operations and the importance of thorough testing and code generation for different GPU architectures. | |

| | | It is no secret that we tend to have a bit of a problem with shader permutations in real-time graphics. It's such a bad problem that it not only affects graphics programmers, but also trickles down to all of the other content creators that use an engine. If you don't believe me, just go ahead and search for "unreal compiling shaders meme" on Google images and see what comes up. There are many great ones to choose from, but personally I am a bit partial to this one: | ||
