NVIDIA GameWorks Integration

For some reason, I had to set r.PostProcessAAQuality 4 in the console to get AA working.

Super, it worked, thank you! I was afraid not to use VXGI because of this problem. And I found no solution on google ...

Thanks again.

You need to use root motion of some kind to have hair react to movement, as it will not respond to just the character moving around. ie. I animated the root bone of my animation to bob up and down to have the hair react to moving around.

Hello, thank you for this compilation GameWorks. Everything works and vxgi is impressive.
That said, the anti-aliasing (FXAA and temporal AA) does not work with me. Do you know how to fix this?

Yet it is enabled in Project Settings and postprocessing. It is a rather annoying problem, thank you in advance. I use UE4 12.5

Thanks for finding a solution, I'll look into why its the case.

Unfortunately, this fix is only temporary. AA temporal off unexpectedly randomly .. then have to re-enter the console command.
As long as you are in the GameWorks compilation, you will be it possible to add PhysX Dynamic Heightfield in addition to all that you have included?

It would be really great to have a ground which is deformed. I tried to integrate Polyvox to EU4, but I am not happened ... I'm a beginner ....

Probably not, as this would only take care of the collision data, would still need to rewrite the rendering portion to support actually changing the landscape tris. Not a trivial task, and I am not really in need of this functionality at this time.

I understand. Anyway I thank you again for compiling features nvidia, it's really nice.

I figured it out, its part of the NVIDIA upscale algorithm thats in Cataclysm. It disables AA. Open up the ConsoleVariables.ini and remove the below entries. If you want to use the upscale algorithm in the future. you need to set those params again.

; NVCHANGE_BEGIN: Improve super-sampling
r.Upscale.Quality=4
r.ScreenPercentage.Editor=1
r.ScreenPercentage=100
r.PostProcessAAQuality=0
; NVCHANGE_END: Improve super-sampling

Thank you very much, I raised several times the editor and temporal AA works normally.

With the official integration of Hairworks 1.2 into Unreal 4.12, has anyone experienced performance lag when simulating hair?

To test what I was seeing in the engine, I've loaded the same exact project in FurViewer versions 1.1 and 1.2 and noted that Hair will now act very stiffly even jaggedly, and in "slow motion" when animated in 1.2 as opposed to 1.1. where the hair animates normally. Additionally, when the model stops animation, the hair flows freely.

Initially I attempted to re-adjust stiffness and gravity, however when I noted the jagged nature of the Hairworks animation I understood that it may be related to an Animation+performance issue that turned up with the update .

Has anyone else encountered this? Specifically with shoulder length hair.

Not sure if this will help you or not, as I did notice much stiffer simulation with the same settings in v1.2. Until I set this console command in UE4:

r.HairWorks.FrameRateIndependentRendering 1

Hi Galaxyman

Thank you for the advice!

I tried that (and every other Hairworks console setting I could find that could potentially solve the issue) which didn't show much difference, however I've just figured out the solution.

I re-exported the original Hair asset from Maya using the new "1.2" HairWorks plug-in and lo and behold, the hair works perfectly!

Apparently some 1.11 assets wont work as intended with the latest build. (I have another 1.11 asset that seems to work fine)

If you look at the video package Hair Works

It's invisible hair.

How can I solve this?

Hair Works received the 4.12 version.

Hi.

In packaged games, render commands are queued and executed later, which is different from editor. We have locally fixed this problem. I'm thinking of pointing you to my private GitHub branch. You can treat is as a preview and try.

You can also try to define PLATFORM_RHITHREAD_DEFAULT_BYPASS to 1.

Thanks.

Is anyone using GalaxyMan's engine and upgraded to the latest Win10? The anniversary update, Redstone or something? It broke my Flex completely, I can't see any FlexActor after I click the Play button... It was fine yesterday...

Hi, I hope to use Nvidia Flex on UE4, I wonder whether AMD cards support Nvidia Flex or not. Please let me know any information about this

I will have to test, but am nervous to upgrade in case its not fixable. So let me have a think about it.

The current version of FLEX integrated into UE4 is not compatible with AMD cards as far as I am aware. There is a Direct Compute version coming some time down the path (no ETA as to when this will be available).
