  • Triangle Visibility Buffer (for PC and XBOX One. macOS and Linux will be supported in the next release):
    • Added PBR art assets and PBR Lighting (please download the art assets again with the script see Install section below)
    • Added swapchain3 DirectX 12 HDR support (in the future swapchain4 and Vulkan HDR will be added) and additionally made sure the PBR art assets are HDR "enabled"
    • There is an automatic camera fly-through to make demos easier
    • God rays were added for additional "awesomeness"
    • With the new PBR art assets and God rays (switchable), we still expect it to run faster than before on all target platforms
