 dingledonger69 | and I have reshade ports of levels and stuff here https://github.com/EpochWon/OpenMW-ReshadePorts | 15:24:03 |
| dingledonger69 | you will have to add that flag yourself because like 99% of the time the shaders are made for everywhere because you cant predict what people use them for | 15:24:34 |
 an1mos1ty | oh this is really cool, so add it to a level/curve shader with disable_exterior and it'll only trigger interior eh? thats super useful | 15:26:03 |
| an1mos1ty | appreciate that epoch | 15:26:07 |

So there’s something about these x3d’s that openmw just loves? No other ryzen cpu’s have it, its like x3d was made for openmw? Quoted by @anyoldname3 from #shaders | 15:30:48 |
 anyoldname3 | One thing is that OpenSceneGraph in particular is really bad at putting data that you'll use at the same time close enough together in memory that it'll also be in cache at the same time. The massive cache sizes on AMD's X3D CPU variants really help to mitigate that. | 15:30:50 |
| anyoldname3 | The X3D CPUs were originally intended for people playing games as games in general are worse for this than other applications, but we've ended up being particularly bad for it. | 15:31:57 |

| dingledonger69 | https://www.shadertoy.com/view/3tlfR7 Found a potential licensing issue with zesterer's shaders and the caustics function. Its using this shadertoy for the noise, which is Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported, but Zesterer says the core shader mod is licensed GPLv3 as they are derived from OpenMW. I'm not very well versed in licenses but if I want to adapt the noise for possible inclusion in master then would this license be incompatible? | 17:26:52 |
| anyoldname3 | Yeah, NC licences are incompatible with the GPL | 18:13:30 |
 mymorrowind | Can you elaborate on this more? Do you mean the x3d’s put transfer data from cache into ram better? | 18:37:14 |

| .yannik | The X3Ds simply have a lot more cache than most other CPUs, like ao3 said.
Here's the Amd 7800x3d against the similarly priced Intel 14700k | 19:59:22 |
| .yannik changed their display name from Yannik to .yannik. | 19:59:38 |
 .upanishads | So does increasing the cfg values for "preload cell cache min" and "preload cell cache max" improve performance? | 20:01:01 |
 zesterer | Whoops, I think I read it as regular old CC when I made use of it. I'll open an issue for that and try to remember to change it. | 20:04:53 |
| dingledonger69 | already did :) | 20:05:01 |
| zesterer | Ah, thanks! | 20:05:07 |
| zesterer | Tbh I might just rewrite the caustics code, it's not a particularly complex effect to produce and there's no particular reason to rely on third-party code | 20:05:55 |
| dingledonger69 | I'm doing something similar my self right now, waza suggested I try and get it added to master | 20:06:16 |
| dingledonger69 | learning how noises work as I go I guess | 20:06:24 |
| zesterer | I've not looked through the impl too hard, but IIRC it's just a simple cellular noise effect with moving grid points and some fancy power dynamic min function for cell distance (i.e: like smoothmin) | 20:08:48 |
