NVIDIA与微软联手主持伦敦GDC DirectX Day 主题——DirectX 10
NVIDIA and Microsoft to hold a DirectX Day at GDC London
NVIDIA TUTORIAL :
NVIDIA, Microsoft DirectX 10 Day
Tuesday, 2 October
10:00 - 17:30
10:00 - 10:50: Gloopy Effects with DX10
Presenter: NVIDIA
With advanced vertex and geometry shading, DirectX10 allows programmers to create objects that deform when they are dropped, kicked, or fired upon. Isn't that how worlds were meant to be rendered?
11:00 - 12:00: Windows Performance Topics for Games
Presenter: Microsoft
This talk explores the low-level workings of the Windows operating
system with a view to getting the most performance out of your game,
while avoiding common pitfalls often encountered by game developers.
Topics discussed include the Windows XP Display Driver Model (XPDM) and
Windows Vista Display Driver Model (WDDM). The talk also highlights
several tools that can be used to detect game performance bottlenecks.
12:00 - 13:00 - Lunch
13:00 - 13:50: Shadow of the Beast
Presenter: NVIDIA
Depending on the context, there are many ways to produce shadows and each technique has its advantages and drawbacks. NVIDIA engineers will show how D3D 10 makes shadows better and your life easier.
14:00 - 14:50: Exploiting D3D 10 - Advanced Techniques Using D3D 10
Presenter: Microsoft
Direct3D 10 opens the door to previously unattainable real-time graphics techniques. Learn how the Direct3D 10 samples team uses this latest technology to create stunning visual effects. This talk describes in detail several techniques demonstrated in the DirectX SDK including GPU-accelerated morph targets and particle systems. This talk also speculates on the Direct3D 10 techniques game developers will be using in the near future.
15:00 - 15:30 - Break
15:30 - 16:20: The DX10 Cloning Factory
Presenter: NVIDIA
Game developers know how frustrating it is to cut down on the number of objects in a scene to save on performance. From details indoors to clutter outdoors, adding objects to a scene is critical for believability. DirectX10 has been designed to display more objects with less API calls. We look forward to seeing the DirectX10 improvements in your games.
16:30 - 17:00: Windows Vista Game Explorer
