Practical articles on CPU, GPU, memory and engineering process optimization.
This module is part of the full Unity Performance Taskforce archive. Transaction patterns, raycasting FTL, fast reflection probes, and advanced mipmapping settings are all about the same thing: stop wasting cycles on work the player does not see. This month is where the small wins stack up. In this
This module is part of the full Unity Performance Taskforce archive. The command pattern keeps gameplay flow under control, physics optimization keeps the simulation from burning time, affordable shadows keep lighting from getting silly, and the Addressables overview shows how to stop content from
This module is part of the full Unity Performance Taskforce archive. This is a practical catch-all month: performance checklist Q&A, character animation, forward vs deferred rendering, and cache efficiency. If the scene looks fine but the frame budget still leaks, this is where you start digging. I
In this blog post, you'll learn what texture compression is, why it is important for your project and how to apply it to improve your GPU and memory performance.
In this blog post, I will show you why, when and how you should use LOD in Unity. Remember, LOD is not only about the poly count!
The first 3 Unity Performance Taskforce modules from 2021 are free for registered members, enjoy! Textures are everywhere, and that means texture filtering and mipmapping are not background details. This month also covers Unity Accelerator, CPU slicing, and squeezing RenderDoc so iteration stays fa
You need a higher frame-rate... but how? Introduce yourself to the P3 Optimization Framework
The first 3 Unity Performance Taskforce modules from 2021 are free for registered members, enjoy! Start by profiling so you know where your game is standing, then chase the bottleneck instead of guessing. The rest of the month goes after shader variants, efficient lightmap settings, and texture com
The first 3 Unity Performance Taskforce modules from 2021 are free for registered members, enjoy! Bad performance is expensive. It hits reviews, platform targets, and the moment you leave it to the end, it turns into a late-stage cleanup problem. This opening month walks through the P3 mindset, DOT
In this blog post I will show you how to use object pooling in Unity 2021 with this new official API so you don't have to mess with 3rd party code that breaks on every Unity upgrade.
For those who never went through an occlusion culling tutorial in Unity... can you guess what's wrong in this game's indoors scene?
Learn how to measure your assembly compilation times to uncover these time robbers that are making you release a worse game.
