We should remember: For all the things that haven’t happened, consider the changes that may occur over time, and don’t measure them with the current data. I have shared some articles about performance optimization of 3d rendering before. Generally, rendering is the main cost of the game’s performance and does not affect the gameplay.

NVIDIA DLSS Plugin for UE4 DLSS is a deep learning super resolution network that boosts frame rates by rendering fewer pixels and then using AI to construct sharp, higher resolution images. DLSS pairs perfectly with computationally intensive rendering algorithms such as real-time ray tracing. Access the NVIDIA DLSS plugin for UE4 here.

Thanks to all pre-release testers who help us find and debug regressions! Note that the project settings from the rendering/quality/2d section have now been moved to rendering/2d , so if you used any of those, you will need to re-enable them under the new section in 3.2.4. stable soon™. Stay tuned for more info!

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 representing mesh particles as instances in TLAS. Avoid deep recursion.

This means having lots of lights no longer creates a performance hit on the rendering pipeline, since all we need to do is sample a single texture and we get the amount of light coming from all light sources. These can only be dealt with manually while debugging. light mapper is based on the same approach used in global illumination.
