Even more particles! It now creates little 'creatures' out of it. I will probably write an article soon around the idea of emergence with simple particle systems. Having too much fun with it.

Delving into DirectX Ray Tracing Basics are done, path tracing is next!

Path tracing algorithm working now with DXR! Now onto more material models and some editor controls.

Just signed my internship contract! :) I will be starting as a researcher in Computer Graphics at Traverse-Research in September. I finally have the opportunity to contribute something to the field.

Another step done, I now have editor controls and I've per instance data! Now onto materials and variance reduction

Further progress with materials. Dielectrics are in and specularity can now be tweaked per instance. Onwards to microfacet.

Thanks for posting about our game!

Part 2 of 'Compute with DirectX 12' is now out! Learn about UAVs, creating compute pipelines and running your first compute shader. stefanpijnacker.nl/article/comput… The final part where we will make an interactive particle simulation will be out soon.

Started working again on my renderer that uses DirectX Ray Tracing. Making good progress right now. Gonna do some more modern techniques soon together with supporting quality settings.

Did a overhaul of the material pipeline, have some more control now. Next up is improving the framework and trying different camera models.

Did some work iterating materials & model loading for my path tracer. Quite happy with this one! Building test scenes is starting to be fun.

Hey there, I decided to write a "Quick-Reference Guide" to DirectX 12 resources. It discusses some of the key topics and terminology of DX12 resources. Mainly intended for people new to the API or wanting a refresher. stefanpijnacker.nl/article/direct…
