meshoptimizer 1.3 is out! Featuring a new voxel remesher, support for normal generation, several simplification improvements and various optimizations. GitHub stars and retweets appreciated!

Project started 10 years ago; excited for the years to come!

Alwan 2.0.0 is out. Colour science in pure C11, first public release. Almost a year!

No dependencies. f32 and f64 in one binary. A core that compiles unchanged as C, HLSL, GLSL and Halide. MIT.

NoGraphicsAPI is released (MIT license)!

It's a low-level Vulkan 1.4 wrapper using latest extensions (BDA, descriptor heap, device address commands, unified image layouts) to get as close as possibly to my No Graphics API blog post and SIGGRAPH 26 talk.

meshoptimizer 1.1 is out!

Featuring two new major features, meshlet topology compression and opacity micromaps, as well as a few smaller features and improvements! Meshlet codec is heavily optimized for CPU decompression and output can be compressed further with Zstandard; opacity micromap rasterizer outputs hardware ready data representation and is fast and easy to integrate.

Boosts and repository stars are welcome!

Great talk by idSoftware mentioning:
"ShaderPrintF, ShaderAsserts and ShaderPrimitive Drawing"

You can have similar functionality in any engine using HLSL/GLSL:

@TFTCentral If you animate the luminance in the darker levels, it becomes even more obvious. I wrote a test for this when I got my OLED laptop some seven years ago. I sent it to you back then as well :) https://t.co/4TPuF5Led7
