Heavy calculations in compute shader

Unity Engine
1

Hello!

  • Will Unity shader in HLSL that I’d use to the heavy calculation for terrain generation on my PC, work on Mac or mobiles too? I mean, does Unity automatically translate HLSL to OpenGL and other shader languages etc?
  • And is it good to use compute shader for calculation like marching cubes, noise generation?
  • Do you have examples of marching cubes in compute shader?

No. But if you’re excited in the technology, there’s no harm in trying.

The Burst compiler system will be more accessible and on the face of it, portable.
