Plotting data with Static Geometry, and display 300000 cubes

applePi · Post by **applePi** » Tue Oct 01, 2013 3:43 pm

the first code are displaying 4000 random numbers with spheres and cubes, note that spheres are too much hard for the computer than the cubes.
there are a Guide sphere for the camera to follow using CameraFollow function. press space to toggle rotation, when you stop rotation press arrows and move mouse to go inside the objects collection cloud, and when we press space again the camera position are for what written in CameraFollow line.
Q1: how to stay inside the cloud and to rotate and stop from any position while the camera follow the Guide sphere ?
Q2: i have noticed some small kicks when the objects collection rotate, and ironically those kicks disappear when we choose more objects number such as 10000 Line 46, or is this an optical illusion !!.
use real models such as fish and instead of cubes or balls, in a test i have used a fish to plot the points near the ground.

some of the code are borrowed from Olby example somewhere

in this link a geometry shader cubes which display 300000 animated cubes,
http://www.ogre3d.org/forums/viewtopic. ... 69#p423669
it is part from a tutorial:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/so3dtools/ with a name B_1_Cubes.
in fact it display too slow on my machine, so i have tested to display 300000 cubes using PureBasic static Geometry and it is acceptable, it takes about 15 seconds to display it.
so i have used only cubes to draw 300000 cube, the FPS is about 16, please post your results and how much time it takes to diplay it in the following code
also any other variations . thanks

Q1: how to stay inside the cloud and to rotate and stop from any position while the camera follow the Guide sphere ?

If I get some free time later I'll try fiddling with it.

Q2: i have noticed some small kicks when the objects collection rotate, and ironically those kicks disappear when we choose more objects number such as 10000 Line 46, or is this an optical illusion !!.

I didn't notice anything, but maybe I'm not looking close enough.

in fact it display too slow on my machine, so i have tested to display 300000 cubes using PureBasic static Geometry and it is acceptable, it takes about 15 seconds to display it.
so i have used only cubes to draw 300000 cube, the FPS is about 16, please post your results and how much time it takes to diplay it in the following code
also any other variations . thanks

It takes about 12 seconds to load and the FPS stays at about 30.

Haha, you know I was worried for a second... I was like "What the hell is going on here? 5 FPS!"... Then I realised that the font from CEGUI was being scaled up, but the 3D window was a constant size so was clipping a lot of the text off

so here are my results...

my hardware is pretty old and modest (core2 6400@2.13Ghz 4GB ram and a 1GB Nvidia GeForce GTS 450.

You have been writing a lot of cool stuff of late applePi, I wish I could get my head around this 3D stuff as well as you have

Thanks very much for all of these really cool examples you have been providing. I am finding them all very interesting

Edit:

Just wanted to throw my modified code into the mix. I am hoping the timer is accurate enough to work out the loading times

thank you guys for the feedback. so the hightest FPS: 59.58 @ 1920*1080 are from LuCiFeR[SD] , i was using Geforce 210 , so today i have replaced my old card with a little more advanced Geforce 520, and its results are worst than before it is FPS: 10 , while before it was 16. i begins to think to reinstall the older card but the newer have a quieter fan noise so there is some hesitation. i will check what is the ram kind and speed on both cards.

thank you tft , thats too much score 360 but going to the card page http://www.nvidia.co.uk/titan-graphics-card they said ( Supercomputer technology. the Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Titan supercomputer to your next gaming experience.. ))
but its price are too high for me about £839 . but i don't know before about those graphics cards.

Nice work ApplePi.

From me: (Second example)
Fps: 60.03 (Screen can't go any higher)
Tris: 360063
Loadtime: 6 sec.

First example:
Fps 60.03
Tris: 1212379
Loadtime: hmmm very fast.

Hardware:
Gigagyte GTX 770 4 GB.
16 GB ram
Amd: Phenom X4 945

Best regards
Peter

@LuCiFeR[SD]

Just wanted to throw my modified code into the mix. I am hoping the timer is accurate enough to work out the loading times

...erm, modified code is much faster:

The compiler appears to have crashed or quit unexpectedly.
It will be restarted.

Please report the conditions that caused this as a bug.

Erm, erm.... what can I say... works for me?

Antivirus? Have you tried commenting out anything that I added to see if you can stop it crashing to narrow it down a little lol

Edited modified code above to make changes more obvious.

@applePi
I really enjoy looking at your prolific 3D output. Don't know how you do it.

I could not read the output from your second example. However, I emended it using the code LuCiFeR[SD] used in his post.
Here are the results:

PB5.20LTS 64 bit.
Windows 7 64 bit
Core i3 2x core. 3.06MHZ - No graphic card.

The codes above seem to be using CreateCamera incorrectly?
Code:

Code: Select all

CreateCamera(0,0,0,WindowWidth(0),WindowHeight(0))
CreateCamera(0,0,0,ScreenWidth(),ScreenHeight())

Help:

CreateCamera(#Camera, x, y, Width, Height [, VisibilityMask])

x, y, Width and Height are a % of the width of the screen, not a literal distance.

i can't reproduce the crash , it worked okay on my windows xp with the new card Geforce GT 520, i force my screen to be of resolution 640 X 480 using xp_quickres http://www.dougknox.com/xp/utils/xp_quickres.htm my eyes feel better with the low resolution, and the utility works also with windows 7 even its name is xp_quickres.
could it be the high resolution 1920*1080 sometimes used.
the example are just the StaticGeometry.pb official purebasic example with some more decorations . but StaticGeometry.pb are using IncludeFile "Screen3DRequester.pb" which i hate to use but may be suitable for a wider users and computers.
by the way i have downloaded GPU-Z.0.7.3 http://www.techpowerup.com/190682/techp ... 0-7-3.html
and it is great to show the spec. of the graphics cards.
