Some PCs may not support this value, and display -1. // // One last point.... // This sample is an extreme test of a GPU's ability to push triangles onto the screen (vertex/triangle rate). // However, observation will show the number of triangles drawn is often over 3,300,000! // Assuming half the triangles are back-face culled (an accurate approximation), this still means // there are around 1,650,000 triangles that are visible at any time. // (But remember, the vertex shader still runs for back facing triangles!) // // Assuming approximatly half of these triangles are depth occluded (very approximate), still // results in a huge number of visible triangles. // This all means that the average triangle is drawing a *very* small number of pixels, in this case, // the average for the actors is probably *less than 1 pixel per triangle!*. // // Triangles averaging less than 1 pixel are known as subpixel triangles. // For a number of reasons, subpixel triangles are very inefficent. // For example, if a single pixel is drawn, due to the way a video card works, the pixel shader will always // run in multiples of 4 pixels, so a single pixel triangle will still run the pixel shader 4 times. // // This makes this sample a perfect candidate for level of detail optimization, where a lower resolution // model is used as an actor gets further away from the screen. // // The vertex shader is also very expensive, and for each triangle, it will be run upto 3 times. // This means the vertex shader is quite possibly running more often than the pixel shader. // This hypothesis can be confirmed; setting the lights to per-vertex, instead of per-pixel, results // in a significantly *lower* frame rate! // // // bool optimizeForOverdraw = true; //create a list of actors to added to the screen List <Actor> actors = new List <Actor>(500); //create 500 actors! for (int i = 0; i < 500; i++) { Actor actor = new Actor(this.Content, this.UpdateManager, lights, diskRadius); actors.Add(actor); } //create the lights, similar to Tutorial 14 lights.AmbientLightColour = new Vector3(0.45f, 0.45f, 0.5f); Vector3[] lightPositions = new Vector3[] { new Vector3(0, 30, 12), new Vector3(0, -30, 12) }; //setup the two lights in the scene IDraw lightGeometry = null; IDraw lightPoleGeometry = null; //create geometry to display the lights List <IDraw> lightSourceGeometry = new List <IDraw>(); //setup the lights, and create the light globe geometry for (int i = 0; i < lightPositions.Length; i++) { Vector3 colour = new Vector3(5, 5, 5); IMaterialPointLight light = lights.AddPointLight(i < 2, lightPositions[i], 8, colour, colour); light.ConstantAttenuation = 0.25f; // make the ligh falloff curve a lot sharper (brighter at the centre) light.LinearAttenuation = 0; light.QuadraticAttenuation = 0.075f; //approximate inverse distance in which the brightness of the light will halve if (lightGeometry == null) { lightGeometry = new Xen.Ex.Geometry.Sphere(Vector3.One, 8, true, false, false); lightPoleGeometry = new Xen.Ex.Geometry.Cube(new Vector3(0.4f, 0.4f, lightPositions[i].Z * 0.5f)); } //visually show the light //create the light sphere geometry from tutorial 14.
