looks good to me, or did you want to look at smeary normal maps for the rest of your life?

Probably fake, like that starfield sandwich

Nvm, didn't see the "topology after nanite" bit at the bottom, perfectly normal in this case

I think the use of Nanite in this image is just a joke - like a meme reference. No matter how you put it though it would’ve been better to retopro the head

The game does not use nanite

In that case grim. But if it works it works, not like that piece needs proper topology for deformation, the performance impact should be pretty negligible, my biggest concern would be shading but it seems to be fine. It looks like the devs really wanted to show 3d details on edges such as here >>997997. Not sure how reasonable this is

I wonder if OP is fake like the Starfield Sandwich. Remember the faked Starfield sandwich?

Can't they just use a displacement map? Displacement maps actually alter the profile of the geometry. Look at the edges in pic related.

it would be a lot more expensive to do displacement to achieve the same level of detail
meshlets just werk

Displacement maps only work if it they points to displace. They don't create points from the aether

Anyone actually using true displacement maps in realtime in games? Idk why to use them instead of just baking them in 3d editor into geometry and then decimating to remove tons of unneeded geometry which exists because displacement needed cosmic subdivisions to work with. For realtime I would probably ever consider POMs, not real displacement.

No, it wouldn't. Meshets have a ridiculously shit baseline performance and only look good when compared to rendering extremely unoptimized meshes.

Nanite doesn't even use mesh shaders by default.

not true at all, polygons are cheap now

This. I work at ubisoft they just ask me to send them sculpts and they put them in game, industry standard saar!

You technically can though in UE5. It does work and you can rig it. You btfod yourself

Why not use tessellation? I remember all the ype for it with DX11, what happened?

It has to be done linearly over the geometry primitives, which means that its performance scales linearly. If you double the available hardware and double the processing speed, fragment processing becomes 2*2 times faster while vertex processing only becomes 2 times faster.
