In 2011-2012 I worked on FIFA Street, followed by FIFA EURO 2012 DLC and finally FIFA 13 - all of these games were based on the same codebase, and this codebase was HUGE. Given an unknown codebase, you need a way to quickly get around it - since you don’t know the code, you resort to search-based navigation, aka grep. Using Visual Studio Ctrl+Shift+F search on a HDD on a codebase this size means that every search takes minutes. This was frustrating and as such I decided to solve this problem.| zeux.io
During development of meshoptimizer a question that comes up relatively often is “should this algorithm use SIMD?”. The library is performance-oriented, but SIMD doesn’t always provide significant performance benefits - unfortunately, the use of SIMD can make the code less portable and less maintainable, so this tradeoff has to be resolved on a case by case basis. When performance is of utmost importance, such as vertex/index codecs, separate SIMD implementations for SSE and NEON instru...| zeux.io
