      In general no, they don’t. Engine programmers aren’t designing levels or characters or missions.

      Also as I said, DLSS support should be in the engine before there is even any content.

            No. I am a game developer. Many tech help a lot with implementing content. You made an educated guess and it was wrong. Own it or be a child about it, I don’t really care at this point. This is more for anyone that actually do want to know

              Again - DLSS is a low level engine feature. It should be implemented before there is even any content. Sure in a little indie studio the person doing the content is probably doing the engine stuff too, while they’re probably doing the music too, but for a game like Helldivers by a studio with about 100 people, the people doing the engine are not making content.

                Incorrect. Dlss is a hardware graphics layer and is not implemented more than calling an api.

                Tech do many other things in a studio

                Including gameplay coding, render engineer, etc. In small studios one engineer can do everything.

                Att big studios, you still don’t have someone working only with render apis for the engine because you have an engine team, most often not in your own studio. If it is in your studio that team is also not only working on render api calls

                Hope this explains it to you, you can stop guessing how it works. I know better yes because I am those people. You forget you are the one guessing

                  Might want to check my updated post mate lol. They literally specify that they do not, in fact, do other things. I’m not the one guessing, you are. Do you work for Arrowhead?

                  Dlss is a hardware graphics layer and is not implemented more than calling an api.

                  As is almost everything in game development. DLSS is an ENGINE feature. It has to be implemented by the engine team. The people making art for the game aren’t implementing DLSS or ray tracing lol.

                    Everyone in a studio contributes to make a game, it is very uncommon to have tech that works only on render or engine. Hope this helps!
