Now available: A blog post on (S)BVH optimization. The article describes how to improve beyond SBVH quality, often significantly. Results are compared to full-sweep, binned SAH and the H-PLOC. In short: Off-line BVH construction can double ray tracing performance. jacco.ompf2.com/2025/05/20/b...

@jbikker.bsky.social Hello! I'm working on binning as described in your great BVH blog and I'm noticing some odd behavior. Increasing bin amount seems to affect performance somewhat randomly. 64 bins performs great, far better than 8, but 256 performs worse. Is there maybe a bug in my code? Thanks!

I added screen-space global illumination to #NBTDS over the weekend to make up for our realtime GI system's shortcomings - notably that it wasn't affected by most dynamic objects.

One thing about having old hardware is that you can dispel myths that have come about re: performance/visuals. There is this meme circling about about older games running incredibly well on launch hw while looking great. Fact is, that was rarer. Games like HL2 ran like dog at launch on top end kit.

The lab is set. With bonesaw in hand, cut and slice into the beasts and root out the source of their infection. But beware, for something lurks deep within the doctor, and it may yearn to claw free. The research update approaches.

I have been too immersed in the review process for games to realise this, but please support Dreamsettler, the sequel to Hypnospace Outlaw. Hypnospace is such a unique experience with an aesthetic not often seen in games anymore!

I'm very much a grumpy old man about raytracing and modern rendering pipelines in general... so when I say that the Half-life 2 RTX demo is genuinely mind-blowing and has the best shadows I have ever seen in anything, understand that's coming from someone who went in expecting to be unimpressed

We're running a Patreon campaign to help fund Dreamsettler, the sequel to Hypnospace Outlaw. Patrons can play a WIP build of one of Dreamsettler's minigames now, and in two weeks we're releasing Dreamsettler's Page Genie. I look forward to making silly pages together. 🌎patreon.com/Tendershoot
