“warning X3206: implicit truncation of vector type”, and "error x3000: unrecognized identifier ‘FVertexFactoryInterpolantsVSToDS’ "

It seems the problem still happens in the newest 4.8_NVIDIA_Techs branch. Is it caused by the branch merging?

Under what circumstance do you see these errors, as I dont see them.

anonymous_user_26f8a6cf · July 10, 2015, 2:49pm

I get it when I try enabling tessallation on a material.

anonymous_user_bcf66e2c · July 10, 2015, 3:36pm

The fix is provided in thread, go back a page or two, Unfortunately I have not had time to patch up my 4.8 branch to include it.

anonymous_user_26f8a6cf · July 10, 2015, 8:16pm

That does indeed fix it, I searched for the error message but somehow missed it. Thanks again for your efforts and patience .

Hairworks doesn’t work in VR By doesn’t work I mean it renders in one eye and moves when you look around.

P.S Everyone I am back from holiday!

clean branch need please

anonymous_user_537a337d · July 12, 2015, 6:41pm

I apologize if is common knowledge. . .but what repo should we pull from for the NVidia GameWorks features?

Are these features already in UE 4.8:

https://github/EpicGames/UnrealEngine

The NVidia branch appears to be waaay back in commits. 9,424 commits behind Epic::Release, and 15,690 commits behind Epic::.

Am I doing something wrong?

It looks like the NVidia branch is at UE 4.7. Is that correct?

anonymous_user_86ab3bcc · July 12, 2015, 10:19pm

That is correct. branch is on 4.8 with all gameworks features. Which you can find
https://github//UnrealEngine/tree/4.8_NVIDIA_Techs

anonymous_user_bcf66e2c · July 13, 2015, 8:29am

Is there an ETA for buy buoyancy for Waveworks? (Boat, or something similiar)

richst42 · July 13, 2015, 1:10pm

Coming from a film/vfx background… What would be is if waveworks was able to switch to doing a flex fluid sim around the player, using the waveworks surface as a base to advect the flex particles - to keep the shape of the wave. And then blend that flex fluid back in in with the waveworks surface a certain distance away. Then you could have massive ocean interacting with the player and your boat could be a rigid body body flex object that would already have a buoyancy option consider that a request

richst42 · July 13, 2015, 1:11pm

Thanks for the builds ! they work great

anonymous_user_b7096a9f · July 13, 2015, 9:43pm

Just a quick question. Is every gameworks going to be implemented? Also how difficult is implementing? Cause I got loads of free time and need a project.

Hello, guys.

I’ve just gotten a 980Ti myself and opened a VXGI project I have to see the performance improvement. Check it out:

GTX 780 (~9fps)

&stc=1

GTX 980Ti (~30fps)

&stc=1

Both tests with multibounces on, and the following setup:

&stc=1

In general, for non-VXGI stuff, the 980Ti gives me about 175% of the 780 performance.
With VXGI stuff, it’s 300% in case.
