@BrianBreiholz @sampavlovic You need an indirection lookup, contains LOD info and data start. Then based on the LOD you know how to perform the linear interpolation of the samples

@DavidPeicho @sampavlovic If you mind me asking, how does probe access on the GPU work with these (compared to uniform grids where we can just deduce 8 probes directly from world position)?

balls to the wall experimenting with a wide tree structure so we can have really dense detail on our volumetric lightmapper while retaining budget

@mrdoob Baked directly using the WebGLRenderer / WebGPURenderer and converted to spherical harmonics?

Need to improve baking time next...

Exploring irradiance probes... 👀 #threejs

@WebXREngine Shout-out to @pezcode and @noerihuisman for creating the original meshlet PoC that is the foundation of what will be available in 1.6.0! Crazy to think that they prototyped that during a fun offsite in Austria :)

In order to start diversifying your timeline from AI-only content, here is a video of the next @WebXREngine version. Both showcase meshlets with hierarchical culling, roughly 32*32*130K tris, nicely frustum / LOD culled. Running on #webgl via Wonderland Engine

@ccallac7 With time you get better at understanding all the overloads it tried to resolve. I would also recommend to ditch the std and use better containers.

I would say I’m pretty good at C++ but compiler errors generated from std template objects are completely incomprehensible to me

@ocornut Took a bit of setup, but VSCode + Cmake extension + LLDB extension is nice enough. I wrote some lldb provider for custom containers. The only pain point is that sometimes the debugger view just freezes. Obviously doesn't happen on LLDB cli

Working on DPI stuff means I need to learn using a Mac… and now I am learning how to use VS Code *and* cmake just to get a bearable workflow. It’s all very tedious & painful right now, but I suppose I could look forward and consider someday using a Mac as my main laptop.

@Sorskoot @WebXREngine Nice! Love the game idea

🥳 My game Equilibrium, made with Wonderland Engine (@WebXREngine) got first place in the open source challenge! 🥰

@mrmaxm @WebXREngine Mix of both, we do build a voxel representation to efficiently place bricks mapping to the probes SH data. The SH itself is however generated from camera rendering to cubemap.

@WebXREngine For baking, do you build a vixel representation of a scene for efficient baking, or is it pretty much a camera rendering and generating SH from cubemaps?

Look at this gorgeous lighting! Our efficient sparse global illumination probe volumes, coming in Wonderland Engine 1.4.0. Baking right from the editor. 🧁 #webgl #webxr #gamedevjs #webgamedev #browsergames #rendering #wasm #web3d

@mrmaxm @PlayingInCanvas @squareys L1 SH, actually it's 1.25mB total, I made a mistake above

@DavidPeicho @PlayingInCanvas @squareys L2 SHs?

I've been dreaming of this even before writing the first lines of code for Wonderland Engine almost 7 years ago.

@PlayingInCanvas @squareys This exact scene is 2.5mB, with 52K probes. The sparser the scene is (think outdoor scene with props), the lighter the GI will be. Sponza is relatively dense, except in the middle corridor.

@squareys That looks great! What kind of sizes for a small scene like that baking produces?

@WebXREngine How does it work? - Create your scene in the Wonderland Editor - Enable the Probe Volume checkbox - Click "Fit To Scene" or scale the volume manually - Bake 🍰 - Wait a bit, and enjoy!

I recently showed what we have been cooking (pun intended) at @WebXREngine: Global Illumination using Sparse Probe Volumes. Here is a #webgl example running in Chrome!

Pretty excited to share that we worked on a Probe Volume Global Illumination feature. It will be available experimentally in @WebXREngine 1.4. Define an area, click bake, and pouf: Get a sparse volume with low memory footprint. Make your #webgl scenes globally illuminated ✨

Wonderland Engine 1.3.3 is now available! 🎉 #webgl #wasm #webxr #webgpu #webgamedev #gamedevjs #gamedev Find the full changelog here: wonderlandengine.com/news/release-1…

Great opportunity to give Wonderland Engine a try!

I have a #rustlang library wrapping C++ code (tinybvh) using cxx. Any chance that can be used in another library compiled to WASM?

From now on, I will try to show more rust/webgpy raytracing directly on bsky, follow me there: bsky.app/profile/davidp… Progress of the day below!

More denoising work: Less fireflies, but still quite a bit of ghosting!
