I've implemented a GPU-driven debug line renderer for Tides based on this great article by @belgianrenderer.gijskaerts.com www.gijskaerts.com/wordpress/?p.... Now I can debug why my GPU-driven LOD selection doesn't work 😅

Tell me you rewrote the renderer multiple times without telling me you rewrote the renderer multiple times!

After a couple of months of on-and-off work on Tides of Revival I have completed the implementation of Meshlet-based GPU-driven rendering and cascaded shadow maps. I had to touch every aspect of the renderer to make this possible and I'm happy it's now over :) Onto new rendering features now!

I've been writing shadow cascades code for 30 minutes straights... Time for a break

Damn 😅

Questo é il souvenir che ho portato ad un mio amico di ritorno da Stoccolma. Non batte il poster che hai postato tu, ma é comunque un evergreen!

Hey Nikita, this is the mesh grid we use for the terrain.
Vertices in the highest LOD are 1-meter apart. We don't have tessellation yet but I hope to add it soon (TM)

This helps a lot!
