NVIDIA GameWorks Integration

Even if you're logged into GitHub you will get a 404 if your Epic account isn't linked with GitHub, here is a quick write-up on how to go about doing that, I'll link this in my original post as well.

Thank you for the guide. I have a github account but I always get the 404 page even when i'm logged in. I can get to this page tho https://github.com/NvPhysX/

No worries, i should have put that link in my other post anyway.

I am having a similar issue. The hair performs as expected on the skinned and animated mesh in HairWorks viewer, but in Unreal Engine 4 it does not follow the mesh at all, it animates though, just in a different position. I'll post a video with the issue when I get a chance.

I found a workaround. The cause was due to Biped. Bone or Maya Program Using Should the rigging and skinning. Biped in cannot be used.

I can't be 100% sure, but I believe u need to resolve the "fur strands share mesh vertices with other lines" issue first, I remember having some issues with skinning when that error occurred in 3dsmax at least. Not sure how to resolve it in Maya, but in 3dsmax, there is a HairWorks menu that allows you to select all duplicate splines, and then you can just delete them and export things correctly.

After receiving an answer the previous version was install(Max 2013 ~ 2015, Maya 2013 ~ 2015). But The same error appears in the Maya program. 3Ds Max Program is not a lot of errors, Hair does not stick exactly like the Maya. Is there another workaround?

Are there chances to reduce the shader build times in conjunction with VXGI in the future?

It may happen, but unlikely. VXGI creates a number of shaders for each voxelized material, and we already made that number as small as we could.

Are the shaders calculated via CPU or GPU ?

The shaders are always compiled on the CPU, and this process utilizes all available CPU cores by default, so using a faster processor with more cores helps a lot.

Shaders are compiled on CPU.

[Maxwell_77]

I thought so. :-) I should invest money in a better CPU in the future...

Which improvements will the next version of VXGI bring? Are other branches like HairWorks getting some love too?

VXGI - nothing major other than the UE 4.9 upgrade and maybe DX12, if it goes well. A few bug fixes and UI improvements for debug modes.

I can see some recent activity in other branches in our p4, but I don't follow them. Mike should be able to say more.

hi mike i'm very anxious, when the new version of vxgi for ue 4.8 is launch?
and vxgi is more fast in DX12?

Are there any Flex related news? Are people generally more interested in VXGI than Flex? @Alexey and @Mike: Do you know when the next build of the flex branch will be ready and if the bugs (Scenecapture 2D turns off rendering of water surface) I have mentioned have been fixed?
