It now uses a quality slider instead of stride.
Lower quality takes larger strides between samples and use lower mips when tracing rough rays.
Now raytracing is done entierly in homogeneous coordinate space. This run much faster.
Should be fairly optimized. We are still Bandwidth bound.
Add a line-line intersection refine.
Add a ray jitter between the multiple ray per pixel to fill some undersampling in mirror reflections.
The tracing now stops if it goes behind an object. This needs some work to allow it to continue even if behind objects.
This add the possibility to use planar probe informations to create SSR.
This has 2 advantages:
- Tracing is less expensive since the hit is found much quicker.
- We have much less artifact due to missing information.
There is still area for improvement.
This commit separate the depth texture into another texture array.
This remove the need to output radial depth into alpha.
Unfortunatly it's difficult to recover position from the non linear depth buffer when applying reflection without adding a bunch of stuff.
This is in preparation of SSR planar reflections.
