frostbite handles sun separately. what we use today is pretty much what is in the frostbite pbr pdf.
@RacifyApp really like the widgets. If the next race widget could scroll to include the full schedule that would be great.

I wrote a blog post on my implementation of the Surfel maintenance pipeline from my Surfel Radiance Cascades project. Most of what I learned came from "SIGGRAPH 2021: Global Illumination Based on Surfels" a great presentation from EA SEED :)

It was great to make a tech video that finally has a positive story for PC. But based on the comments under it on YT, you would presume that Dragon Age The Veil Guard might be responsible for some heinous crimes against humanity based on the vitriol there. Many comments...
The AAA norm is to release half broken on PC. Dragon Age: The Veilguard bucks this trend offering a PC-tailored user experience that scales well above the consoles. You will spend your time staring at its slick hair rendering and not at a frame-time graph.

We use an intersection shader for heightfield marching terrain. So a similar situation. The terrain is made of patches, and each patch is an AABB node in the TLAS.
That being said, we're looking at taking this out of TLAS and doing manually before/after the traceRay call.

Check out this awesome paper from SEED on how to tailor the frequencies of rendering noise to improve image denoising in real time rendering. The paper is being presented next week at @I3DCONF in Philadelphia ea.com/seed/news/spatio-temp…
