Pro Tip: If you use TAA or TSR you can annihilate the stepping effect with a Dither, you'll be able to keep your Max Steps to extremely low values while still looking good It's way better if you use a Blue Noise Dither too instead of the stock one The Steps can be optimized based on distance too from the camera, been suffering a lot in making this work since we're using POM on our Landscape, a lot of Optimizations and little tricks, especially in blending the different layers If you use PDO I'd suggest turning off Contact Shadows too, those are the ones that most of the times make it look all glitchy and stuff Wanted to share pictures of the setup but YT doesn't seem to like imgur links and removed my comments 2 times already So if anyone is interested in any of this, can maybe share the raw code

Bangin’ advice. I’ve used dithering with BumpOffset before to get a sort of ‘blurred vertical lines’ effect for an Ice shader before but didn’t think of using it in POM. That’s a good point about the distance optimisation - since the Custom node is actually doing loops based on the step amount input, changing it at runtime/based on a gradient would actually make it execute less code, unlike ‘hiding’ something with a Lerp.

@@IstyManame Just posted a video followup, production value is 0 tho, not very good at this and recorded all at 5-6 AM, probs set the video a 1.25x speed for sanity sake :p Making it came to mind this too: If you use POM you wanna make sure to use a lower resolution Texture for the Displacement since the resolution influences the amount of Samples, and you want to filter it Bi-Linearly instead of Anisotropically, this is one of the biggest performance improvements with it Some other fixes regarding velocity too included in it to make it all work

Correcto - I feel like relying on it too heavily at the moment could cause some pain

this video is so good, how would you think going around using parallax for a cubemap of a room inside a window for example? btw the bump way of doing it I really appreciate that you discuss it because I might use it in VR eventually as it is quite cheap

Oh Lordy that’s a spicy one haha. I know they do some parallaxing Cubemaps in GTA or Spider-Man or something, there might be some explanations on KZread already but maybe not specifically for UE5

There is a built-in material function for fake interior rooms if I remember correctly. Also there are KZread tutorials, maybe for UE4, but it doesn't matter in this case.

5/5 yeets

Which is more performant? This or Nanite displacement?

Currently working on an RTS game (top down camera with a 40-60% angle like Prismatica plugin demo)- 1) will POM fit great here? since the camera never going to a shallow angle near the floor this type of effect will probably never break 2) POM vs WPO- which one is better for performance?

@PrismaticaDev

15 күн бұрын

For a top down, BumpOffset might be enough. But POM with a low step count could also be fine. WPO would require a very dense mesh to get the same effect, but with Nanite tessellation it would be doable. I’d say the order of performance would be BumpOffset - WPO - POM

With max steps set 128 for example, would it be less expensive than the Nanite tessellation?

Be merciful and make more tutorials

How do i get the same background for the material view as you have ?

New 5MM let's go!!

how does it compare to build in displacement?

@PrismaticaDev

15 күн бұрын

I’ll have to look specifically, but I believe Nanite displacement would be cheaper in most cases (?)

Thanks a lot Prismatica for the video, very helpful! Just a question : is it possible to create a vertex paint material with the parallax occlusion combined?
