How to speed up an expensive shaders by baking a part of the calculations into a texture.

I created a benchmark for each rendering stage in the rendering pipeline. Then I compared the GPU architecture of RTX 3060 to GTX 1050 Ti.

How to connect Nsight Graphics to Unity Editor to profile GPU in the game view, without building the game.

I build my custom occlusion culling designed for my project. I show the implementation, optimization steps, benchmarks and final effects.

A few examples of wrong practices, my profiling philosophy, what data to look for when profiling An example of profiling built-in occlusion culling and the GPU Resident Drawer in Unity.

How I implemented 3D particles with no CPU code, no meshes, no instancing. And how I made them run 2x faster.

Rendering effects without CPU mesh handling. Creating particle meshes on the fly in the shader code. Implementing a tornado VFX and making it run 13x FASTER.

This is the fastest, and the simplest terrain erosion algorithm I've tried. Explained in detail.

Improving Unity's built-in grass shader.

My mental model of a GPU that I use every day to reason about rendering, profiling and choosing the right optimization path.

I optimize one of my old fragment shaders to run 5x faster, keeping visuals almost unchanged.

How to debug rendering issues. I explain my workflow.

I implement a top-down camera that dynamically follows the player's position, updating its view as the player moves, and preserves the texture content in world space.

Offloading Unity character trail rendering calculations to a multithreaded job unlocked massive CPU gains

How to render a custom content into a texture in Unity.

Shell texturing - When to use it? How to optimize?

This is core graphics knowledge. Master it once, and you’ll see the same principle popping up everywhere.

I explain what VRAM bandwidth is, why it is important in rendering optimization, and what to look at in your game to optimize it.
