‘Physical Open Waters’ addon for #blender3d is nearing an imminent release. This is the first glimpse of the UI and preset system. It will come with ready-made presets. Or you can make your own unique waters and save/load with a single click. Higher quality renders in 🧵👇

Video was recorded on a mid-range laptop and ‘preview mode’ water surface that runs at interactive pace. These shots however are higher quality. #Eevee as usual.

A bonus for those who are still here. The annoying tiling is now almost completely gone! I went for a flight above ocean and took reference photos. Then I re-did wave sample summing and finally I have the look I was after. It is so much easier on the eyes!

I'd like to see how the water looks near the land surface. Like a beach scene. If possible:)

I don’t have shoreline interaction yet in this version. It will come after the initial release.

DLSS 4.5 performance cost on the RTX 4070 Super, tested in #TheLastOfUs, #ArcRaiders, and #RedDeadRedemption2 at 2160p (4K). This time, I replaced the games default CNN models with native 4K to show how the DLSS Transformer model compares against native TAA / TSR. I also included a comparison between the new presets using Performance mode and Preset K in Quality mode. The Last of Us Part I Performance mode – Native (TAA) → Transformer Preset K: ~59% gain – Preset K → Preset L: ~13% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~7% hit Quality mode – Native (TAA) → Transformer Preset K: ~35% gain – Preset K → Preset L: ~23% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~17% hit Preset K Quality mode vs Preset L & M Performance mode – Preset K → Preset L: ~5% gain – Preset K → Preset M: ~13% gain Arc Raiders Performance mode – Native (TSR) → Transformer Preset K: ~80% gain – Preset K → Preset L: ~11% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~7% hit Quality mode – Native (TSR) → Transformer Preset K: ~47% gain – Preset K → Preset L: ~21% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~16% hit Preset K Quality mode vs Preset L & M Performance mode – Preset K → Preset L: ~5% gain – Preset K → Preset M: ~13% gain Red Dead Redemption 2 Performance mode – Native (TAA) → Transformer Preset K: ~15% gain – Preset K → Preset L: ~11% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~4% hit Preset K Quality mode vs Preset L & M Performance mode – Preset K → Preset L: ~0% gain – Preset K → Preset M: ~6% gain At 4K, The performance cost of the new presets is more significant than at 1440p, especially in Quality mode, which to be fair, doesn’t really make much sense to use at this resolution on a mid range GPU even with Preset K. In most cases, Preset L and M offer good image quality at 4K in Performance Mode. But right now, I think the biggest and most noticeable visual issue with these new presets is the oversharpening in some games, like The Last of Us. This problem is even more obvious at this resolution especially with Preset M.
