Mainly I focused on generating grass that bends in the wind and some fern like plants, but what comes next is usable for all kind of meshes. Batching means to combine mesh objects that share the same material or that are marked as static in the Unity inspector. In my case I had terrible FPS with just some thousand mesh instances.

The progress of last month was largely defined by stabilizing the 3D renderer with many smaller fixes, but work on the PRB side of things has begun and the GDNative system also saw some quality-of-life changes again, with improvements to the GDNativeLibrary resource as well as an API to provide safe type-casting in NativeScript.

Heyyy, this pretty much looks like the sky projected onto the meshes, that's better! At that point of development, the sky reflection didn't respond to the camera position, so it basically looked like the sky was painted ontop of the mesh.

What Is a Shader? Since the main premise of this effect is going to be a shader, we’ll start with explaining what a shader is. A shader is a script where you write code that determines how the colors will be rendered based on various scenarios like lighting and material configuration.

Shaders are used to create many effects, like “water”, “fire” and more. In order to understand them and become a wizard/witch, we have to learn a bit about meshes first. A mesh is made (usually!) You can see the mesh as the structure of your object, built by combining its triangles together. Shaders Theory.

Especially in hybrid rendering, where G-buffer or shadow maps are rasterized, it’s potentially beneficial to execute AS building on async compute. In hybrid rendering, using the same LOD for rasterization and ray tracing can be considered. Consider alpha testing instead of blending. LODs used for far-away objects can be simpler.
