Shader Based Texturing
Nice PickDevelopers should learn shader based texturing when working on real-time graphics applications like video games, simulations, or interactive media, as it allows for efficient creation of complex materials (e
Pros
- +g
- +Related to: shader-programming, opengl
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Precomputed Texturing
Developers should learn precomputed texturing when working on real-time 3D applications where performance is critical, such as in game development or VR/AR experiences, to reduce computational load and achieve consistent visual results
Pros
- +It is particularly useful for static or semi-static environments where lighting and geometry do not change frequently, allowing for high-quality baked lighting, ambient occlusion, and global illumination effects without runtime overhead
- +Related to: real-time-rendering, global-illumination
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Shader Based Texturing if: You want g and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Precomputed Texturing if: You prioritize it is particularly useful for static or semi-static environments where lighting and geometry do not change frequently, allowing for high-quality baked lighting, ambient occlusion, and global illumination effects without runtime overhead over what Shader Based Texturing offers.
