we're working on it :D

oh noooo i fucked up the pixel counting D: here's the fixed benchmarks

gouraud:
Pixels/onscreen triangle: 438
Triangles/sec (onscreen only): 585,349
Pixels/sec: 256,542,771

flat:
Pixels/onscreen triangle: 438
Triangles/sec (onscreen only): 1,010,287
Pixels/sec: 442,781,906

no idea if this is good tbh. number big, seems good? :'D

a whole mess of RGB gouraud shaded triangles

finally profiled my rasterizer, at 320x200 resolution

gouraud:
Pixels/onscreen triangle: 655
Triangles/sec (onscreen only): 1,090,454
Pixels/sec: 714,162,506

flat color:
Pixels/onscreen triangle: 655
Triangles/sec (onscreen only): 1,643,493
Pixels/sec: 1,076,359,536

ok i think i'm actually just out of optimizations to do on my triangle rasterizer now. so i guess it's fixed point time next

but thou must!

a large triangle covered and bordered in hatching. 8x8 tiles that are fully inside the triangle and viewport are colored green, tiles that are fully inside the viewport but on the edges are blue, and tiles not fully inside the viewport (extending off the sides of the screen) are red

after optimizing the number of multiplications, i decided to add a 3rd tile fill path besides fast (no checks) and slow (viewport clipping + inside triangle checks) that does the inside check but no clipping

so i had to make a new debug visualization. fast = green, medium = blue, slow = red

so 486 cpus have a 16-bit * 16-bit -> 32-bit result multiplication but it's actually slower than 32-bit * 32-bit -> 32-bit result, am i getting this right?

yeh 😌

this will end well

i like

triangle

like the post above this one, cowards

red green and blue interpolated triangle with debug hatching taking up the bottom right corner of the screen. the top left of the screen is mainly empty, with some red hatched tiles on the outside near the triangle's edge

ok ok one more. i'm checking right sidedness by counting vertices on the right side of the bounding box center, and if it is a right sided triangle i change the horizontal tile iteration from left-to-right to right-to-left

so now the left image's triangle doesn't do a bunch of extra work

oh jesus christ

that is sadly not uncommon :/

'Mini hearts' show COVID-19 virus directly infects heart tissue Researchers from the Centenary Institute and the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) have developed a human heart cell model demonstrating that the virus that causes COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) can direct...

covid messes with your heart. not like other viruses like the flu, where it's general inflammation that does it. covid specifically infects your heart cells and then fucks them up medicalxpress.com/news/2026-03...

now i need to convert it from floating point to fixed point and i'll be mostly done with the optimizing stage. then i'll add some different rendering options (it just does flat and gouraud atm) and put it on github

thank you :3

a gouraud shaded triangle with red green and blue colored vertices. large squares are hatched magenta and white while smaller squares are hatched red and cyan. the edges of the triangle have no hatched squares at all

wake up babe hierarchical tiled triangle rasterizer just dropped

each meta tile is 4x4 tiles which are 8x8 pixels. magenta and red tiles are blank meta and normal tiles, white and cyan are fully covered meta and normal tiles

Also now they're worried about all of this impacting electric prices because despite being one of the sunniest countries in the world Cyprus has shit for solar power

My mom called me all worried about the drones at the UK military base

I blame keir starmer
