« Game Engine Design – Logging · Game Engine If our game is multi-threaded, this gives other parts of the code time to execute. Today I am going to share my current thoughts on a scene design supporting concurrency evolved from experiences on the last game I worked on. Finally, the supposed benefits of the design just don't make sense. As technology rolled on, however, things got more complicated. Optimizing a game engine was all about low-level code. Thoughts on multithreaded pipeline game engine architecture. Game Programming; The Game Loop. Now the rules have changed, even cellphones feature multiple cores and a game engine must be multi-threaded in order to use the full potential of a machine: In this regard, idTech5 "Jobs System" is elegant. Also with PS4 and Xbox 720 not launching until 2014 or so, most developers are not going to make game engines more multi-threaded than they are today since it's too expensive. 3D design, Multimedia, Video, Rendering, Animaiton all kind of good stuff that AREN'T gaming. I hope it will inspire people to write better code: Modern software development is not about being an ace programmers anymore. CPUs got faster while memory stayed slow, invalidating many optimization in lockstep (which makes the entire engine behave as if it were single-threaded). Easy to read and commented code implementing it. Just a few years ago, we had it easy. It is about being a team player that empowers co-workers with: Elegant design. 3D Game Engine Design: A Practical Approach to Real-Time Computer Graphics English | ISBN: 0122290631 | edition 2006 | PDF | 586 pages | 20 mb Graphics hardware has evolved enormously in the. Start using 4 threads, this likely means a quad-core will be sufficient for at least another 3 years.
