Legacy Deferred

Post by Gudadantza »

Testing the last build of DaggerfallUnity in my temporal horrible laptop APU ( My slightly higher previous crap laptop died :)) I have used "legacy deferred" option for testing performance. I`d like to know exactly what this option is because I noticed the interiors performance is better but the general outdoors performance is a bit worse.

What this option implies? is inferior? no dinamic lights or so? Does it reffer to dynamic shadows/lighting only?

Thanks and greetings

It's just the pre Unity 5.0 deferred render path, which is now called legacy deferred. It's a little easier on older hardware but you should keep it disabled if you can. The material support isn't as good and lights will be flickery.

Yes, I've noticed the lighting and shadows are glitchy

Thanks
