Official Hybrid Renderer V2 (0.4.0)

hey joelv, any news about this? https://forum.unity.com/threads/hybrid-renderer-v2-0-4-0.847546/page-11#post-6599392

 

Thanks for the info. I will try this workaround,
Our planned scenario has some more subscenses and much more different entities. Around factor 20.

Please implement cross fading as soon if possible too.
It s the most missed feature in HDRP.
Especially for trees and some parts of the vegetation.
CTI Trees and Speedtrees with GPU Instancer are benchmark here in BuiltInRP.
In current HDRP i found no solution to even get close to this.

Do you also get the ambient light from the HDR Sky. Cannot get it.

 

It alway happen when I delete a lod entity.
see also:
#525
#447
#477
and so on..

 

Are there any demos/tutorials on the Hybrid Renderer v2? and if so, could you point me to one please?

 

hey joelv, how to fix this?

 

Does anyone know about this though?

 

Hi guys, I've found a bug in the Hybrid Renderer. I reported an issue and created a thread, but no comment from the unity team so far.

https://forum.unity.com/threads/hyb...ects-past-32785-units-in-x-direction.1032688/

In a few words: Hybrid Renderer would not render things past ~32785 units in -X direction. It is fine in any other direction but in -X it won't render.

 

Here you can find some...

https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/Graphics/tree/master/TestProjects/HDRP_HybridTests

 

This is still not fixed in most recent update. Back to using this work around I guess (this fix is required for split screen where each player has their own world)

 

Hi.
I deactivated 20 subscenes to eliminate the memory problems for now.
IBL Ambient Light is working now again in latest Hybrid Renderer V2 (0.11.0-preview.42).

Do you have an idea here?
The lights for neon signs and street lights work fine but they kick in later as in the 2019 original release.

 

i created a new project and added Hybrid Renderer 0.11 (V2)
closing the sub-scene with 2 LightMapped cubes throws errors and the entities become invisible.

Texture creation failed. 'RGB_ETC2_SRGB' is not supported for Sample usage on this platform. Use 'SystemInfo.IsFormatSupported' C# API to check format support.

Is there a quick fix we can do while we wait for the next version of Hybrid Renderer ?
thanks!

 

Not sure why 0.11 logs lots of errors. I believe previous version dun have such issue.

 

Hi @joelv, @JussiKnuuttila. Any idea why Hybrid Renderer 0.11 become spamming errors?

 

I see. I'm using 2020.2.2f1. I still waiting for 2020.2.3f1 public release.

 

I'm trying to use BatchRendererGroup to render some instanced geometry in edit mode within the scene view, but it only renders into the game view. The instances render correctly, everything works as expected, it just does not show in scene view.

Is this a limitation of BatchRendererGroup ? Nothing in the documentation suggests it wouldn't work.

*EDIT* it was the Scene culling mask, requires
EditorSceneManager.GetSceneCullingMask(EditorSceneManager.GetActiveScene())

The default value when unspecified (the parameter is optional) of
9223372036854775808UL seems to only apply for game mode, not sure how it relates to the scene view though.... documentation needs more detail.

 

GetDOTSInstancingCbuffers and GetDOTSInstancingProperties both return NativeArrays of 0 length when used with a ShaderGraph shader that has Hybrid Per Instance properties ( HDRP 10.2.2 and Hybrid 0.11.0-preview.42 using ENABLE_HYBRID_RENDERER_V2 scripting define)

IS this a known issue? I'm following the documentation trying to set the properties in a BatchRendererGroup

I tried the V1 method (GetBatchVectorArray) but am not seeing any changes, I looked in RenderDoc and it looks like the constant buffers were not getting the properties set.
So then I tried V2 method but hit the Length 0 blocker.

**EDIT**

Also you will get a massive editor crash if the Shader Graph property that is set to Hybrid Per Instance is not marked Exposed.

 

*EDIT* thanks for pointing that out, HybridHDRPSamples & HybridURPSamples are here: https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/EntityComponentSystemSamples

 

Hi @SebastianAaltonen. Will older GLES devices will be supported in future HR package? My DOTS game needs to target old devices.

 

I have such a usecase. Literally 3-5 parallel worlds (think of this new game called the medium), but the switching is happening on a button press. Currently i just destroy and load every object in "realtime" (no real loss in performance since instantiating of the same object is fast), but i could now think about showing them at the same time and doing a transition from 1 world to another.

 

Oh. Oooh.

That would explain a lot. A lot of problems I was seeing past months. Thank you for sharing that because I don't believe I ever read that stated anywhere so far and it's [ly] far from being immediately obvious from outside.

 

You can always find them in the repo: https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/EntityComponentSystemSamples

 

I find working with separate worlds highly convenient as it enables data namespaces, context and responsibility separation. For example, I can create distinct worlds dedicated to:
- short gameplay loop (what's on screen, player interacting in the immediate world)
- long gameplay loop (persistent larger world data and it's logic)
- additional visual ui & fx

There are cases where I need to render data from all these contexts at once, think: global game world state map in visible immediate player world with ui/fx.

Keeping contexts separate significantly reduces range of possible system-data interactions thus making everything much simpler to model in meat-cpu, easier to debug and easier to test.
Surrendering all this because of rendering requirement is definitely viable, but we will miss it greatly.

 

The thing I lack clarity on is what mechanism allows HybridV2ShaderReflection to return the CBuffer and Instancing Properties length.
What does the shader reflection need in order to get that information. Is it purely the UNITY_DOTS_INSTANCING_ and related macros?

After experimenting, it seems like it is related to the conversion step and requires use of the
MaterialProperty attribute. Though I'm not 100% clear on this. (In the cases where I was seeing Length 0 for the CBuffer and properties it was when not using the mix of MaterialProperty attribute and IComponentData on the object)

 

Hi @joelv. I just test it with 2020.2.3f but the bug still haven fixed yet.

 

You can refer to Case 1308787 project or I need to submit another new bug report?

 

Alright. Case 1312138.

 

Hi,
I'm currently working on a big architectural environment with 17million vertices and 50000 objects. Would it be useful to use the hybrid renderer or doesn't it work that way?

 

I have case with minigames inside big game displayed on some ingame terminal like in DeusEx
So I can render minigame world into RenderTexture and then draw it on terminal.

Main Goal is separation of concerns, so I can spawn miniGame world play it and destroy afterwards without event thinking about possible collisions between 2 world entities, archetypes and systems.

With such approach every minigame can be developed as completely separate small game and with separate team and only integrates into main game on late stages.

 

It seems that in HybridRendererv2 Environmental Reflections are not calculated properly. In the picture below the space station on the left is not converted to entities and the one on the right is converted to entities. We can see environmental reflections on both but the ones on the space station on the right are waaaaay less pronounced. Any idea how to fix it? @joelv @Sebastion_Allnot

 

It's a niche case but I used multiple worlds previously to render a second rollback catch-up world. This was mostly for debugging. I also used it for a time travel prototype where different timelines of the worlds were rendered on top of each other.

I admit those are quite niche situations, that said, I feel like there's going to be more cases like this that crop up and it feels odd to sacrifice these things for a rendering system limitation.

 

Is console support still planned for 2020.2?

 

This is fixed for me in latest Hybrid Renderer V2 in HDRP. ("com.unity.rendering.hybrid": "0.11.0-preview.42")
Here you can find some nice new examples
https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/EntityComponentSystemSamples/tree/master/HybridHDRPSamples
https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/EntityComponentSystemSamples/tree/master/HybridURPSamples

 

Hi @joelv. Any new progress for this case 1312138?

 

Is there an eta for point lights using URP & Hybrid renderer?
