Hi, thank you so much! As far as I understand the draw calls you can afford depend on the project and the target platform. Draw calls can vary in complexity as well; for example if a complex VS a simple material is being called. So the number of calls itself is more of an indication and not the full picture. Generally speaking what you are looking for is that your CPU doesn't get overwhelmed and becomes the bottleneck in your game. With modern CPUs the amount of models you can stream is quite a lot and engines tend to take care of the batching for you. And within performance as a whole you should consider draw calls as a slice of the cake; there is also overdraw, shader complexity, particles..... It could be that a game has a lot of calls but doesn't necessarily run badly ruclips.net/video/U-3DwrcIn80/видео.htmlsi=2XRIQ-dPhWj0_BAe&t=1643 27:20 30:00 If you check out this talk about how Spiderman PS4's world was created, at the timestamps there are hints regarding modular assets in a modern game. They used 47'000 unique models. At 12:17 he mentions that buildings are prefabs composed by several instances of the modular assets; they batch the whole prefab for LODs but I don't think the base mesh is batched. The prefabs are instanced as well. I think the reason is this: with modular assets you pay the price of the draw calls up front, but it allows you to create a lot of variations. But if you were to merge all of these variations you would end up with more calls in the long run. I also suggest looking at some talks given by Bethesda on their kits for fallout 3 and 4. It's like their bread and butter ruclips.net/video/QBAM27YbKZg/видео.html To be completely transparent, I don't know the full reasoning on why they did this, but if you are an Indie/solo developer you likely don't have to worry about it so much because reaching this quantity of assets and making such a big game is really hard. My advice is to - Make the modular assets use the same material - Trim sheets, triplanar etc... for texturing - Use material variations where possible And most importantly, use the engine's profiler to see what is taking the most amount of resources. In our game performance issues were coming from shader complexity and lighting, draw calls weren't a problem at all. This was tested on a variety of computers ranging from total potato to RTX3060 My next video will be a dev-log and it will contain a bit of a follow-up to the modular assets, showcasing how I am using them in a real project. I want to talk about performance, optimizations, draw calls etc... so I will be sure to answer your question in more detail if I find more info. ruclips.net/video/MDQDHcke1bk/видео.html&lc=Ugw_C0dnUl9uuxnITdZ4AaABAg This is the project + a dowload link if you want see how the assets perform on your machine. I know this wasn't a straightforward answer but I hope it helps! My intuition is to keep an eye on the draw call amount but not stress over it

Thank you, I hope it was useful!

Thank you, I really wanted to experiment with this style, I'm glad it turned out well

Thanks! A demo is available for free dowload if you are interested, we put it right here: savagebenji.itch.io/boars-in-rome Hope you enjoy!

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the video

Glad it could help! I plan on expanding on parts of this tutorial eventually, if that is useful

Witam, bardzo miło mi to słyszeć, Wiktor. Jeśli chcesz wypróbować grę i przetestować ją, możesz pobrać ją tutaj: savagebenji.itch.io/boars-in-rome Mam nadzieję, że Ci się spodoba!

indeed!

this guy knows what's up

Thank you! Feel free to join our discord (link in the description) if you want more frequent updates on the development of the project

I like your name

@BoarsInRome thank you sir

thank you very much

감사합니다!

i like the musics

thank you for the kind words

full send it

Thank you! I plan on making more videos related to game dev in the future. Is there anything specific you would be interested in seeing?

@@BoarsInRome environment and creation modular assets

@@GonzaloDev-ww9un Thanks for the feedback. When I'll find new ways to expand the technique I will make a video about it

Thank you so much! Hope it helps

Is that a rubis profile pictures

you chose neck

no problem!

Thank you Snowfuccc

Thank you so much, I really apprecciate it! I cannot wait to work on another animation project like this one

Thank you! Maybe one day!

thank you

Nice profile picture

Thank you!

Thanks!

Means a lot you that think that :)

Thank you! Maybe one day it could happen

thanks :) Might make another one when the time is right

Thank you! It means a lot. If you ever do end up re-creating it in 2D feel free to share with me

Ikr bru, too good to receive only a few thousand views 😁

Good to see u again too

Thank you so much, I am glad you enjoyed it, I spent a lot of time on it!

Jawdroppingly Splendid

​@@BoarsInRomeUr welcome, u deserve more views

большое спасибо!

без понятия, но спасибо за просмотр!

Thank you so much!

No worries!

Happy to help!

Thank you! For some reason your comment doesn't show up on RUclips, I just saw it

Thank you so much for the kind comment! It was a fun project to work on, maybe I'll try to do something similar again when the time is right

@@BoarsInRome Look forward to it, subbed!

I made it! My friends helped me with the drums and the guitars and I used Fiverr for the vocals. You can see how I made the music right here: ruclips.net/video/mpOmEDilYTc/видео.html

Thank you for the kind comment, I apprecciate it
