Optimization Tips for Translucency [5.4]

Hello,

As you say, the ProfileGPU output from the Editor does not show the issue. Can you please share the output from the target platform?

Instead of being a profVis file, the output will be printed to Log. Please remember to redact any confidential pass names, either from the target platform or your product.

Please capture a worst-case scenario for us.

In addition, can you answer these questions so we can best help you?

  • Are you using translucency scaling? (“r.SeparateTranslucencyScreenPercentage” or related CVars) If so, are you also using dynamic resolution for the translucency? (“r.Translucency.DynamicRes.*”)
  • Are you using Order Independent Translucency?
  • Are you using parallel translucency? (“r.ParallelTranslucency”)
  • Are most of your translucent objects meshes in the world, particle effects, or something else?
  • Are you using volumetric effects? (Volumetric Materials, Fog, and Cloud)
