Poor performance on OSX due to lack of GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_arrays

[kikili]

\ Edit by Xycaleth ** Problem is identified as use of high anisotropic filtering, but more importantly lack of GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_arrays on OS X. Solutions would be to use GL_APPLE_vertex_array_range if available, or GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object.

\ Original text ** I've tried several times OpenJK on mac, and it's really a great job done here. BTW I still have big rendering issues with my Mac. Please find attached some screenshots where you can look at rendering. Also I attached screenshots.

Hi! I see you're running the MBII mod. Do you still have rendering problems when not running MBII? Also, what version of OS X are you running?

I also see a difference in the way the rendering is done between the Steam version and OpenJK. Do you have r_primitives set to 0 under OpenJK?

[Razish]

See if any of these fix it: r_overbrightBits 1 r_mapOverbrightBits 1 r_ext_compress_textures 0 r_picmip 0

Or just a cvar_restart followed by vid_restart

[ensiform]

What about turning texture compression off?

[kikili]

"A cvar_restart followed by vid_restart" did the job. I had then to put back my custom resolution of 1920x1200 and set full screen. But actually that works. Any idea what goes wrong ? Thanks for the help, anyway !!!

[ensiform]

Well that's because it sets all user settable cvars back to the default. But that's good.

Can you show the new log ?

[kikili]

Ok Here is new screen shot and console. That still doesn't explain why some features are missing and rendering seems slower than with steam version.

Cannot 100% guarantee the Mac version is going to run the same because the Mac port wasn't included in the source release. And we have slightly higher default settings because its 2015 not 2003.

[xycaleth]

@kikili try setting r_primitives to 2. I also see the Steam version is setting r_ext_texture_filter_anisotropic to 2 - try doing this in OpenJK.

Both settings should improve FPS if they work.

[kikili]

Seems better indeed. BTW still does not explain why it didn't detect GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_array (this one actually should help a lot for FPS I think)which are actually available on this card and activated for Steam version. If you have any idea of where I have to look in the code I can make some tests for you. I tried to look at it by myself but get no clues.

[xycaleth]

The auto-detection happens here: https://github.com/JACoders/OpenJK/blob/master/codemp/rd-vanilla/tr_init.cpp#L1387

I notice in your Steam JA log that GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_array is listed in the list of OpenGL extensions, but not in the OpenJK log. This is very strange as the list comes as a single string from the GL driver - they are not detected individually.

Please can you post the log for when you have the two cvars set as I suggested? I have a feeling that it's not GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_array that's improving performance, but the decreased value in anisotropic filtering.

[kikili]

Here it is. You right the missing sub-string comes from the String given by the call to the driver. The issue is how did it get a different result than in other apps ....

Shit I closed it by mistake

[xycaleth]

Try setting r_ext_texture_filter_anisotropic back to the default value (16) and see if that kills the performance. If not, set it back to 2, and set r_primitives back to 0. Personally, I don't think the lack of that GL extension will make much difference. I think it's the anisotropic filtering on the textures.

Status update @kikili ?

Well, it's acceptable and playable now. Thanks a lot for your help guys/ BTW there is still the fact that the FPS is not stable even if I'm alone and not moving ... I'm still pursued that there is some kind of problem with the driver and SDL 2. I've downloaded the latest version and try to recompile without any success. I'm on OS X 10.10.2 and Mac Book Pro 17" (the latest one) and should have at least "compiled vertex arrays" activated, which is supposed to provide a way to not have to send all geometry every frame. I've tried several different combination of init SDL and creation of the main window without any noticeable changes (except perhaps some crash). So don't know how to go further to be at least near the performances of the steam version.

I don't think OS X supports the extension, despite what your original log shows. I'm running a MacBook Air 2012, with OS X 10.10.2 and the OpenGL driver monitor doesn't even show the GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_arrays extension. There is another similar GL extension written by Apple which does a similar job it seems. I will consider adding support for this extension if it's available.

You definitively right. I don't know how hell I was so sure to see it in extensions in the OpenGL driver (too much alcohol probably). That's why I spent some much time trying to figure out why it didn't work with SDL2 and finally it was not at all SDL2 but just not available on OS 10. xD Are you talking about GL_APPLE_vertex_array_object ?

[xycaleth]

I was referring to GL_APPLE_vertex_array_ranges. It looks like it's similar to GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_arrays. Or I may skip that and go for GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object, not sure yet. In any case, it won't be for a while.
