Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Total FPS & Performance mods for Console
Optimized Vanilla Textures were optimized for PC and then ported to console. They were optimized using an 'optimizer' for Skyrim, which was not updated for the textures FO4 has. It did add mipmaps for the textures that were supposedly missing some and shrank the resolution; however, seeing as the Creation Kit uses Microsoft's own DDS compression program that adds mipmaps automatically, you're literally just re-adding vanilla textures that have been decompressed and then recompressed with extra loss on the visuals and taking up space. Also, specular maps must be compressed with the Photoshop Intel plugin in order to compress them properly or a program that will allow you to have the red and green channels saved in BC5U format (which is a normal map compression and flipped). GIMP does not do it correctly and I'm very doubtful the program that was used to shrink things did either since it was not designed for FO4's specularity.

25 outfits that will be available in the shop
The images are in a split DDS format. To convert them to e.g. PNG files, you first have to concat the files and then use a tool such as texconv.

Mod Release: Oblivionesque Locks, a lockpicking minigame overhaul
Yep, the images used for each part of the minigame (a couple variations each of lock background, pick, pins, and springs) are stored as .dds files, DXT1 format. You can convert another image format to this type of texture-- I used texconv. Overwriting the default textures with your new files will replace the assets ingame.

editing textures
However I've found that MS TexConv from the DirectXTex package is the best way for loosing less quality, so I save my textures as lossless PNGs and use TexConv with my own wrapper then.

You can use texdiag to see information about a texture.

Does Anyone Know a Tool That Can Mass Compress/Resize DDS Files?
I know only Nvidia texture tools exporter but it's not in masse sorry My suggestion is to create a python script that uses texconv.exe for every file in a directory, pretty easy to get

BC7 Quick vs Max, any performance difference?
xLODGen/DynDOLOD/TexGen uses Texoncv to compress textures.

Coming back to FO4 and realized there are now mods available - what do you think of this selection and the LO?
Not necessary on Xbox. Xbox graphics will not function properly without mipmaps so the developers would have had to run everything through xtexconv for Xbox optimization. See Microsoft Documentation on DirectXTex. Code samples for xtexconv for the curious are located here.

All textures/images are .dds files. I use TexConv.exe to convert them to png files. texconv.exe *.dds -ft png

What files from glm's github do I need to add to my emscripten project?
I am a greenhorn at graphics programming. I just made an app in OpenGL with C++ that I now need to change over to a browser app with WebGL. WebGL looks pretty cool but since my app does a lot of calculations I assumed I should keep the heavier calculating parts in C++ with emscripten ( which I am also just learning ). So looking at it, it just looks like glm is the only library I seriously need for my c++ code and that seems pretty cool because it is a header only app it says. But in the github there are a lot of folders and files so I am not sure which are indispensable or not. Any advice?

What is a file with the .i.hh extension such as myfile.i.hh used for in a C++ project?
GLM does it quite well, it has core includes then a detail folder with all the inl files that get added. https://github.com/g-truc/glm

Porting to metal?
I once ported an OpenGL code base over to Metal. For me, it was essential to do as much code sharing as possible. Because I was using the GLM library in that code base and generally found that library very useful I wanted to know whether I can use GLM with Metal. I had to do some research but it turned out it works really well, see here

Learning DirectX 12 in 2023
Alongside MiniEngine, you’ll want to look into the DirectX Toolkit. This is a set of utilities by Microsoft that simplify graphics and game development. It contains libraries like DirectXMesh for parsing and optimizing meshes for DX12, or DirectXMath which handles 3D math operations like the OpenGL library glm. It also has utilities for gamepad input or sprite fonts. You can see a list of the headers here to get an idea of the features. You’ll definitely want to include this in your project if you don’t want to think about a lot of these solved problems (and don’t have to worry about cross-platform support).
