Well, this demo uses that too, but it's not the same thing. What he describes is just a depth-only pass.

This is basically the same concept as what Richard Huddy calls "Pre Zee" in his presentation, no?

None-the-less very cool stuff Humus. I'm surprised that it made that huge a difference in a relatively simple shader, though. Anyways, keep up the great work

sqrt[-1],
that's a pretty good idea. Works just fine. Doesn't speed things up noticable though, but it may help on nVidia cards I guess if they can skip clearing between lights.

Anonymous,
yeah, I'm pretty happy with it. Makes things a bit more convenient, and less chance to miss a comment.

Something offtopic: It's very useful that the last comment is displayed on the main page!

Hey if you put your subwoofer on the floor it should sound a lot better. High frequency speakers are better placed up high and low frequency speakers are better placed down low.

Re the fullscreen clear update:
Instead of clearing the stencil buffer for each light could you not just increment the stencil reference value?
(ie use
dev->SetRenderState(D3DRS_STENCILREF, i+1);
instead of
dev->SetRenderState(D3DRS_STENCILREF, 1);

(or is there something going on that I am missing? (only allowing 255 lights etc?))
