Description

SSR has been exhibiting issues on distant surfaces and objects for quite some time now. We need to find some solutions to improving SSR, such as:

  • Rendering SSR into a separate buffer to be processed for glossy reflections
  • Fixing the current moire problem that is exhibited when moving the camera around
  • Fixing striations on water

Test Plan

  • Go to a region with any water with screen space reflections enabled
  • Move your camera around - easiest is to alt-cam around an object with water in the scene
  • Observe is striations or the notorious "moire" effect appears
