Possible forgotten use of FSR_RCAS_DENOISE?

[CptLucky8]

Hi,

We're implementing FSR in our project https://github.com/mbucchia/OpenXR-Toolkit and you have done an amazing job. It has been very easy to integrate and it is giving very good results in VR.

I might be wrong but unless the shader compiler optimizes this out, it seems to me the following 3 lines of code could be enclosed in a #ifdef FSR_RCAS_DENOISE block, otherwise the shader is computing the nz value for nothing:

Thanks!

It might be worth checking the generated assembly with http://shader-playground.timjones.io/ to make sure :slightly_smiling_face:

@Calinou Thank you for the hint.

I've just tried for the sake of it and it did optimize this out. The #ifdef block would have probably expressed this directly, saving time by just glancing at the source code though 🙂
