malexander Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Briefing viewing the HD version only noticed one small change in the viewport - EDIT: The light icon is nothing, H14 does the same on Mac Mini Intel graphics. It's demoed on a MS surface, which has an Intel GPU. HQ Lighting has always been disabled for Intel GPUs as they'd error out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Mark - I wonder when/if Intel will ever be good enough for work in GL or CL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malexander Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Thanks Mark - I wonder when/if Intel will ever be good enough for work in GL or CL! I have to give Intel credit, they've come a long way in GL support. Their recent drivers are pretty stable, performance is decent for the hardware, and the new Broadwell/Skylake CPUs even have GL4.4 support (Haswell GL4.3) - which is impressive, considering where they were at a couple of years ago. HQ Lighting is pretty brutal on processor graphics though, as it's very bandwidth hungry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tar Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Cool as - will be fun to test out some of the new cpu gpu's next machine update! heh,heh...it´s going to be out in a couple of weeks. Do you really wanna play pixel hunting? It's quite relaxing and fun to try to hunt down leaks. In years past I've run all the production software in beta, OS, 3d, Comp, render etc and it's not just crazy hard to not leak any info yourself, but nailing bugs when your whole machine is ready to crash and burn at any time makes a zen like mediation seem easy ... also managing the 7+ bootable partitions is insane too.

malexander Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Does the system only use the CPU's graphics capability if you don't have a dedicated GPU Mark? Intel's OpenCL is probably best used to target the AVX units of the CPU. 64b addressing support, all the cores + SMT, 256b FP - that's probably the way to go. Not sure if you can target the CPU cores vs. GPU slices in Houdini, but it's likely possible in the Intel CL interface. Ideally if you have a discrete card, the Intel GPU and discrete GPU would show up as separate CL devices. I expect that both would show up for Vulkan as graphics and compute devices, but that's a ways off yet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sankar Kumar Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Master classes for new Tools would be very helpful, last time There was no master class released for PBD & Crowd system, But peter Quint provide us detailed lessons few weeks before only. This time Dozens of updates in Houdini. Can't wait till 15th... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
