Stride represents the total number of bytes from the start of one instance of a type to the next in a contiguous block of memory like an array. Size represents the total number of bytes that must be copied in order to preserve the value of the item.įor example, if you have an instance of a Float, a Float requires 4 bytes in memory, therefore if you have a pointer to the start of the float value you need to copy 4 bytes from the start in order to transfer it somewhere else. This is because the rasterizer will interpolate the vertex values when it is rasterizing the triangles so the color of each pixel is a linear combination of the color in the vertices. Notice how even though we only specified a color at the vertices somehow we got a color for the pixel. Normally you do something more complicated here like calculate lighting or add some special effects. This is a simple shader that just passes through the pixel color. Notice how it is prefixed with "fragment" Here is where we transform the vertices from local space to clip space. ] tells the shader that you mapped the vertex data to buffer slot 0. stage_in means that Metal will piece together the VertexIn struct from whereever you told it the vertex data was going to come from inside a MTLVertexDescriptor object (this will make more sense later). Just specifies that this parameter is where your vertex data will be mapped to. This is the vertex shader, notice how you have to prefix the function with "vertex" Think of it as data that can be shared across all vertices. The Uniforms structure is extra data that is used to process the vertices. You need to tell Metal which parameter is the position parameter since that is needed for rasterization. You need to define a structure telling the vertex shader what data it will output. You specify using special syntax which tells the shader which part of the input vertex buffer this attribute is mapped to. This needs to match the exact structure of the data that you place into the buffer in the Swift side of the code.

MC Championship is a Minecraft Tournament for YouTubers and streamers run by Noxcrew, in which 10 teams of four compete in a series of 8 minigames decided by the participants. She came out as bisexual on November 21, 2021. She had a Labrador Retriever named Wilson, he passed away on August 2019 from cancer.
She graduated from college in Jwith bachelor's degree in Medical Laboratory Technologists. She also is part of Hermitcraft Season 8, which started on Jand ended in December 22, 2021, as well as Empires SMP, which began on June 12, 2021. She was also a member of Minecraft X Life SMP, started in Septemand ended in March 2, 2021. She has also done a video about learning to painting. She has done a Q&A video on occasion when she hits a subscriber milestone. She started making videos in October 2011 but made them private until she started again in early 2015, making videos about building for over 5 years until in middle 2020 when she started playing survival & Minecraft X Life SMP.
