πŸ’– vpBruteForceRender(3) πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the Library Functions Manual ✨ this one's a lil chaos goblin of a function and honestly? iconic.


🌸 NAME 🌸

vpBruteForceRender β€” render using a simple brute-force method

πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

#include <volpack.h>

vpResult
vpBruteForceRender(vpc)
    vpContext *vpc;

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • vpc β€” the VolPack context you got from vpCreateContext. that's it, that's the whole vibe. 🫢

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

okay so. this function is for debugging purposes only β€” like, genuinely, no cap. it's not here to be your main character, it's here to be your reality check.

it does the exact same thing as vpRenderRawVolume, bestie. same job, same output. but the way it gets there? a simpler, very inefficient algorithm. like, it just brute-forces its way through life with zero thoughts and zero optimisation πŸ’€

and here's the part that matters: the two functions should produce identical results. so if you run vpBruteForceRender and vpRenderRawVolume and get different pictures, something is genuinely wrong and you should be like πŸ‘€

fr fr β€” this is a debugging tool, not a production renderer. don't ship it, don't benchmark it, just use it to double-check that the fast path is actually doing its job correctly. she's slow but she's honest πŸ’–
