[ Feature ] Option to turn off non essential graphics animation #32

Open muziker opened 2 years ago

muziker commented 2 years ago

Is it possible to turn off the background animation? I'd like to save on the cpu cycles.

JoepVanlier commented 2 years ago

First of, my apologies for neglecting the issues for a while.

I could probably release some more basic variants. Which plugins would you be most interested in for this?

First of all, congratulations for this excellents works ! It is earblowing, and brings plenty of potential for artistic ideas ! It is also graphically intuitive, and nice. Thank you.

The only thing I see is that it's quite CPU expansive. So I agree it could be great to be able to turn off some animations. I think Ravager could be a candidate for this (particles animation).

Though, I'm pretty sure the amazing DSP is more expansive than graphical animations.

The CPU usage you see indicated in the performance meter is only for the DSP I think. The audio runs on a different thread.

However, I agree, it is possible that you are having slowdowns on the graphics thread as well.

I've just added an option for disabling the particles on ravager. I don't think it will make much of a difference in terms of the reported CPU use, but it might save you a few cycles on the graphics.

Also added an option for Lava Verb to turn off the fluid simulation. It's in the top left (eco graphics).

Could this be done for SatanVerb too? Looks really cool but I'd rather have nothing more than the controls. Great plugins btw!
