Amélie Heinrich @dispatchgraph.bsky.social · 20/07/2026Introducing AGFX : Amelie's Graphics Library, a thin MIT licensed RHI targeted towards indie developers C compliant, D3D12/Metal4 backend, 2.0 will add raytracing/draw indirect support soon. 🧵 2294
Amélie Heinrich @dispatchgraph.bsky.social · 22/02/2026Trained a small MLP to approximate the split-sum BRDF integration lookup table used in IBL rendering Architecture is a 6-layer MLP with GELU activations and a Sigmoid output layer. Takes NdotV and roughness as inputs and outputs the scale and bias terms of the split-sum approximation 1140

Amélie Heinrich @dispatchgraph.bsky.social · 19/12/2025Raytraced sun shadows using Metal intersector. Runs like shit because I have an M2 Mac Air which doesn't support hardware raytracing, hopefully I get to upgrade soon so I can get mesh shaders execute indirect and hardware RT... 180

Quite insane noise reduction going on in here! 1251

Amélie Heinrich @dispatchgraph.bsky.social · 28/10/2025How does one even befriend an artist and convince them to help you make your game with your clunky custom engine art tools 220
Amélie Heinrich @dispatchgraph.bsky.social · 28/10/2025Hot take, I think it's a bit of a shame we don't have API level mipmap generation. I mean Metal has it with MTLBlitEncoder::generateMipmapsForTexture, but it'd allow vendors to make use of their architecture-optimized single pass downsampler (also not sure NVIDIA has one) 140
Amélie Heinrich @dispatchgraph.bsky.social · 28/10/2025Been doing some D3D11 work for nostalgia and to help a friend make their game and jeez, I'm missing modern graphics API copy commands, wtf do you mean I can't use CopyResourceRegion in D3D11? 040
Amélie Heinrich @dispatchgraph.bsky.social · 22/10/2025Turns out I was wrong, I can still use Metal Shader Converter even for D3D11....... yes...... good..... 050
Amélie Heinrich @dispatchgraph.bsky.social · 22/10/2025Helping a friend out to make their D3D11/Metal RHI and I'm gonna have to play around with spirv-cross for the first time to get HLSL -> MSL with no bindless 230

Amélie Heinrich @dispatchgraph.bsky.social · 02/10/2025Metal devs -- has anyone achieved ExecuteIndirect emulation with Metal Shader Converter? I know I can write an MSL kernel to go from indirect commands -> Metal ICB, but for MDI I'm mostly curious how I fetch DrawID in HLSL. 110
