4x SSAA Ti4600 scores

Basic locking a vertex buffer that manytimes, might be just a 'tad' slow. However, it might not matter too much, if you are only drawing the frame once.

Anyway, would it be possible to create a single vertex buffer of say 20k verts and then use the World matrix to just shift the transformed positions of the verts, sort of like how you can use a display list in OpenGL?

 

You're right, it isn't like it need to get a high framerate. And "a couple of million" is actually 2M for 1600x1200, and less for smaller windows. It's one quad per pixel IIRC.

Shifting a mesh has been concidered. But I didn't like it because it would mean a non-uniform way of setting the position of polys. Within the mesh, it would be the function filling the vertex array that makes a difference. On mesh borders, it's the shift in the world matrix.

In this test I'm intentionally paranoid about having all rounding errors as uniform as possible. Just because it's rather sensitive here. It's probably overkill, but otherwise I would always think about if unexpected stuff could be mesh-border-errors.

Sorry for the thread-hijacking. Just move along past us, nothing to see here.

 

I believe F12 will do the trick.

 

Does this work in OpenGL with these drivers? It's supersampling alone, so I should work. Is there a hidden option implemented for OpenGL.

 

Oh great! I've imposed a question that has both ended this thread and destroyed the minds of all who read it by the shear complexity of it all.

 

That's definately 4x OG AA.
