Analysis The whole effect can be split into two parts, one for the simulation of the mesh and one for the rendering of the mesh. Simulation of this piece, for the time being, according to the algorithm of others, it is not difficult to copy. So I researched the code and prepared to port it to Cocos.

NetEase Thunder Fire Games Uses Mesh Shading To Create Beautiful Game Environments for Justice In December, we interviewed Haiyong Qian, NetEase Game Engine. Recently, NetEase introduced Mesh Shader support to Justice. Q: What are you trying to achieve by adding mesh shading to Justice? Q: How do Mesh Shaders solve this?

Here are the implementation of water wave effects on 2D sprites and 3D meshes: Preview Link The math behind it is simple, the water wave is simulated by the Sin function, and then the fluctuation range is increased in the Update function. Use the water wave effect on the 3D meshes This is only for 3D planes with tiled UV Mapping.

Ensure your meshes are marked as "Static Bake", then enable SDFGI in the Environment settings. Multiple Bounces: Enable a feedback loop, which simulates multiple bounce lighting. SDFGI is mostly leak free, unlike VCT techniques which are the most common in use today (like SVOGI/GIProbe/etc). How do you use it?

Anis: Ray tracing and path tracing in Unity have the same visibility requirements as the rasterized techniques: proper shadow casting is expected, either in the form of a watertight mesh, a shadow proxy like in our new HDRP Scene Template , or in the form of double-sided materials or two-sided shadows. Pierre: Certainly.

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. Use NVIDIA Nsight Graphics for profiling and debugging. Also, consider compacting the BLAS.
