[4:04:57][@mmozeiko][Will you revert yesterday changes where you changed bilinear pixel unpacking code from float mul to int mul? It was faster with float mul.]

|
[4:05:24][@an0nymal][How many more marathon streams will we have? I thoroughly enjoyed the 4+ hours today.]
|
|
[4:05:47][@quikligames][You should give a big thanks to @Rygorous for sticking around and trying to give you tips knowing full well that you wouldn't see them in chat]
|
|
[4:06:07][@mmozeiko][would it be better to have tile sizes always divisible by 4 horizontally (or even 16 to be cache aligned), then there will be no need to deal with alignment and masking?]
|
|
[4:07:07][@rygorous][(clip) one too few pixels. look at the edge of the screen.]
|
|
[4:09:20][@rygorous][just pretty sure I saw glitchiness/off-by-1-pixel stuff near the edges but it might've been the video encoding]
|
|
[4:11:08][@mmozeiko][(tile size %4) - not masking for textures, but ClipMask variable]
|
|
[4:13:30][@abnercoimbre][Q: holy crap. our 1st marathon.]
