NVIDIA GameWorks Integration

Well, when I tried to rebuild the ShaderCompilerWorker it gave me this error:

And when I try to build whole project it gives me this.

and, of course I have the rights to run, tried to run in administrator mode but same error. Sorry for posts.

Not sure what difference it makes to "Build" and "Rebuild", since I'm very green, but I selected "Build", not, "Rebuild" and I have compiled the shaders just fine and working on compiling the whole project. No errors have cropped up just yet and I am on 200/1521 processes. What process number does yours fail on?

And I also didn't get the "Overwrite file" message at the beginning of downloading the project files from the setup.bat either.

well compiling is failing cause of external reference with the D3D11 and it isn't asking to hit Y/N like it used to, it just goes straight to downloading so I am assuming it is overwriting something when doing that. Tried running as admin, changing where I put it on my pc etc..

Thats a sign that certain files have been over written. If you are pressing N when prompted and still get the error (or not getting prompted at all), then after setup.bat has finished, copy back over the ThirdParty\NVIDIA\nvapi directory replacing all.

@galaxyman are you getting FPS drop issue?

Not that I am aware of, but I really didnt do any FPS testing, plus I have a NVIDIA Titan X, so probably would notice.

Sorry guys it appears that I did miss a couple of files, I have just recently committed them - You should now get prompted to overwrite the files when running setup.bat, answer is still N

Thanks GalaxyMan.

Didn't get any prompts even this time (using fresh clone for 4.9.1_Techs) but everything built just fine now Thanks GalaxyMan.

I don't know what this means -can someone tell me what to replace replace nvapi with what from where.
thanks

It only matters if u get prompted to replace files when u ran setup.bat and you typed Y (for yes) instead of N (for No). You will find the nvapi directory in the location you placed the files, something like UnrealEngine-4.9.1-release\Engine\Source\ThirdParty\nvapi. You will need to replace them with the contents from the zip in the same location (or revert them if your using a github fork)

Thanks sooo much.

WaveWorks works great on other engines: http://warthunder.com/en/devblog/current/834

@ Alexey.Panteleev

What do you think of Cryengine's SVOTI (Sparse Voxel Total Illumination) and how does it compare to VXGI and SVOGI ?

Used here in this game and strangely lablled as SVOGI not SVOTI eventhough it is the latter http://miscreatedgame.com/forums/sho...SFP-09-29-2015

Anyone have any tutorials or a guide for using Waveworks ? Can't seem to find one.

edit. Sorry. Don't worry I worked it out.

Where can i find gameworks? All github links seem dead. I press any link and it says 404 Page not found

[GalaxyMan2015]

You need to be logged into your github account and it has to be linked to your UE4 account otherwise you will get a 404 error. All links are still valid.
