New graphics primitives built for the future of games NVIDIA Micro-Mesh is a graphics primitive built from the ground up for real-time path tracing. Displaced Micro-Mesh and Opacity Micro-Map SDKs give developers the tools and sample code for the creation, compression, manipulation, and rendering of micro-meshes.

This was a necessary change for many reasons: It's much, much simpler to write import/export code this way. Godot import/export code was most likely simplified tenfold. DAE (and hopefully FBX in the future) files are treated as if they were actual scenes (you load them directly from code). Seeing the code.

It's much larger than our importer, we only net 12,000 lines of code (the FBX SDK is over 50 MB - that's bigger than Godot!).

Consider representing mesh particles as instances in TLAS. For particles rendered as triangle meshes, having a unique instance for each particle can be a reasonable solution. Instances should share the base mesh BLAS. I recommend avoiding careless payload usage, though adding complex code to pack values is rarely beneficial.
