Many hundred lights in one scene — BS Contact supports deferred rendering

Berg near Munich, October 1st, 2012

Deferred rendering or deferred shading is a magic word in nowadays computer graphics. In principle it is a methode to separate the geometry calculations from the computation of lights.



Modern graphics cards can do these calculations faster separated than the renderer as a piece of software on the computer. So, many hundred lights are possible in one scene. The following screenshots shows about 250 lights with high interactive frame rates produced in realtime on a laptop computer with BS Contact in directX.



Who can remember the old restriction of only 8 lights in OpenGL?
