In Topic: help with creating a structured buffer

09 January 2013 - 02:18 PM

Create your device with the D3D11_CREATE_DEVICE_DEBUG flag and it will tell you why it's failing. If i recall correctly you can't use a structured buffer as an indirect args buffer, you have to make it a raw buffer instead (ByteAddressBuffer).

 

Thank you so much. you are right, structured buffer cannot be used as an indirect args buffer.

didn't know I can create device with the debug flag, it's very helpful.


In Topic: inconsistent frametime

no I cannot feel the stutter when dragging the camera around.
I am calling timeGetTime() to get the value. and that's the value I'm using to update all my systems.

update:
I'm debugging on my laptop. which has two graphics cards. and I was running the app on the nvidia card.
and I tried it on the Intel card, it runs without significant stuttering, although the frame time is longer. it's something like:
0.009
0.009
0.010
0.008
...

so is it safe to say it's the graphics card?

Thanks for that comment,
yes it's under Visual Studio 10 with DX11.
and it still stutters outside the debugger.
Even when there is no polygon on screen, or if I reduce number of the render targets I'm using, the frame time still stutters. but in a smaller range. like:
0.002
0.002
0.005
0.001
0.002
...
it's interesting that every longer frame is followed by a shorter frame. and they add up to the average frame time.

In Topic: question about how to downsample a texture

29 February 2012 - 05:51 PM

Thanks a lot for your answers. So it seems what I'm doing now is not absolutely wrong.

One more question, do I need to change the viewport everytime I change to a render target of different resolution?
