This is just a test of my raytracer. It should be faster with up to 4 cores. In two resolutions, for slow computers

not bad, well optimised. try texturing next time and better scenes to test it. good work.

Nice work, even 1024 runs fine here. It seems you are ray-bouncing (1 reflected ray) with no shadows. With a limited depth of stack I guess a GPU raytracer would be easy to write and would be faster ??? Less compatible though.

First scene prod to push my pc over 90% cpu usage! Runs pretty nicely at 1024 here. Obviously, major suckage as a demo, but thumb up for the code. Now make something good with it :D

BiTL, could you write your system configuration? Thanks.

Wow, it's preety fast for the ammount of spheres/reflections and resolution!

Pretty. Although this is not an intro, and a proper colorscheme would make it a lot nicer.

cool and fast, and works on my "shitty 3d-card"

It's just a silent routine.

reet racen!!

is this multi-threaded? is see some small differences between CPU1 and CPU2 usage in the windows task manager (P4 Hyper-threading).
rulez added on the 2006-11-17 16:19:54 by earx earx
earx, I suppose differences are due buffer updating and some little things that are not done multi-threaded. Anyway I've only tested it on my computer wich is a Pentium D (dual core) at 3 ghz every core. Closing all programs (including messenger and that), I can hardly see any difference in core usage (it looks as being less than 1% of difference in my computer).

And well, yes, it is multi-threaded. I've divided the work in four threads, so it could use the coming soon quadcores. I've not added more threads because in any quadcore it should be fast enough to get more than 60 fps

what i see on prod window is not so cool, what i see in task manager is.

raytracing is ok for speed testing but what i long for is something innovative. gpu cores can also be exploited, not necessarily for strict rendering.

kudos for experimenting anyway :)

1024: 25+ fps all the way
640: 40+ fps all the way

spex: demobox vista³²

only downside: had to close it via taskmanager including "program doesnt work anymore,wanna close?", bitching a lot so to say, but thats vista !

cOcOOn, did you tried to press ESC? I have had the same problem now, and it is just that the X to close is not enabled... just shitty code, sorry.

About the fps, I've been taking a look again of the code, and it have some silly unoptimized things... I believe I can make it a bit faster (10-20% maybe). I will try any day to do it...
added on the 2008-12-08 16:10:52 by texel texel
Yeah, i like the idea...

hehe, obviously NOT... i´m crinklering right now and didnt want to fuck sth up, haha.
i hope we meet once ;) GPU does the job very fast !
WOW, very nice!

Why are we thumbing up single-parters with no sound and no design? Make a proper intro with this, then we'll see
