Man I cranked up the batch collapsing and the draw calls went from 800+ to 40…AWESOME..
I love my engine!… Batch collapsing is a method by which I group sectors together and then sort all models by shader and shadermods. If they are matches then the models are combined into a batch collapsed model thus several draw calls or batches are combined into one. This DRAMATICALLY increases frame rates as a batch has a LOT of actions to it. Good stuff!! .. I also narrowed the culling frustrum a bit also which helped… good stuff!
More later!
