我使用以下NVidia TerrainTessellation WhitePaper实现了以下直径的LoD。在“Hull Shader:Tessellation LOD”一章中,对直径的LoD进行了很好的阐述。这里有一句好话:

  

对于每个色块边缘,着色器计算边缘长度,然后在概念上拟合围绕它的球体。球体投影到屏幕空间,其屏幕空间直径用于计算边缘的曲面细分因子。

这是我的HullShader:

// Globals
cbuffer TessellationBuffer // buffer need to be aligned to 16!!
{
    float4 cameraPosition;
    float tessellatedTriSize;
    float3 padding;
    matrix worldMatrix;
    matrix projectionMatrix;
};

// Typedefs
struct HullInputType
{
    float4 position : SV_POSITION;
    float2 tex : TEXCOORD0;
    float3 normal : NORMAL;
};

struct ConstantOutputType
{
    float edges[3] : SV_TessFactor;
    float inside : SV_InsideTessFactor;
};

struct HullOutputType
{
    float4 position : SV_POSITION;
    float2 tex : TEXCOORD0;
    float3 normal : NORMAL;
};

// Rounding function
float roundTo2Decimals(float value)
{
    value *= 100;
    value = round(value); 
    value *= 0.01;

    return value;
}

float calculateLOD(float4 patch_zero_pos, float4 patch_one_pos)//1,3,1,1; 3,3,0,1
{
    float diameter = 0.0f;
    float4 radiusPos;
    float4 patchDirection;

    // Calculates the distance between the patches and fits a sphere around.
    diameter = distance(patch_zero_pos, patch_one_pos); // 2.23607
    float radius = diameter/2; // 1.118035
    patchDirection = normalize(patch_one_pos - patch_zero_pos); // 0.894,0,-0.447,0 direction from base edge_zero

    // Calculate the position of the radiusPos (center of sphere) in the world.
    radiusPos = patch_zero_pos + (patchDirection * radius);//2,3,0.5,1
    radiusPos = mul(radiusPos, worldMatrix); 


    // Get the rectangular points of the sphere to the camera.
    float4 camDirection;
    // Direction from camera to the sphere center.
    camDirection = normalize(radiusPos - cameraPosition); // 0.128,0,0.99,0


    // Calculates the orthonormal basis (sUp,sDown) of a vector camDirection.
    // Find the smallest component of camDirection and set it to 0. swap the two remaining
    // components and negate one of them to find sUp_ which can be used to find sDown.
    float4 sUp_;
    float4 sUp;
    float4 sDown;
    float4 sDownAbs;
    sDownAbs = abs(camDirection);//0.128, 0 ,0.99, 0

    if(sDownAbs.y < sDownAbs.x && sDownAbs.y < sDownAbs.z) { //0.99, 0, 0.128
        sUp_.x = -camDirection.z;
        sUp_.y = 0.0f;
        sUp_.z = camDirection.x;
        sUp_.w = camDirection.w;
    } else if(sDownAbs.z < sDownAbs.x && sDownAbs.z < sDownAbs.y){
        sUp_.x = -camDirection.y;
        sUp_.y = camDirection.x;
        sUp_.z = 0.0f;

    sDown = radiusPos - (sUp * radius); // 0.891191,3,0.356639,1 = (2,3,0.5,1) - (0.991748,0,0.128226,0)*1.118035
    sUp = radiusPos + (sUp * radius); // = (3.10881,3,0.643361,1)

    // Projects sphere in projection space (2d).
    float4 projectionUp = mul(sUp, projectionMatrix);
    float4 projectionDown = mul(sDown, projectionMatrix);

    // Calculate tessellation factor for this edge according to the diameter on the screen.
    float2 sUp_2;
    sUp_2.x = projectionUp.x;
    sUp_2.y = projectionUp.y;
    float2 sDown_2;

    sDown_2.y = projectionDown.y;

    // Distance between the 2 points in 2D

问题

Tessellation工作正常。但是出于一些测试原因,我让对象旋转,所以我可以看到曲面细分是否与旋转同时进行。有些我认为它不是100%正确。看一下平面,这个平面旋转了(1.0f,2.0f,0.0f),而蓝色红色与深红色相比显示出更高的镶嵌因子。绿色是1.0的因子。它应该在飞机顶部比在底部更详细。 TessellationFactor with Rotation

我错过了什么?

一些测试用例

如果我删除旋转内容,它看起来像这样: enter image description here

如果我删除旋转,我将包括这个简单版本的orthogonale base计算:

// simple version
sUp_.x = -camDirection.y;
sUp_.y = camDirection.x;
sUp_.z = camDirection.z;
sUp_.w = camDirection.w;

它看起来像这样: enter image description here

如果我没有使用lookUp Vector,那可能是个问题吗? 你是怎么做LoD的?我正在尝试别的东西......

您使用的是什么IDE?如果您使用的是Visual Studio,则应尝试使用Visual Studio Graphics Debugger或PIX,具体取决于您拥有的VS版本。
