From 8a767f29d378570ec979973e9d175b2b8fd225ce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: kvvasuu Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2026 20:40:54 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Rewrite EffectComposer's pass lifecycle for correctness and cost Passes are now derived from the r3f scene graph and only rebuilt when the resolved node list actually changes, not on every render. Fixes real GPU-resource bugs found along the way: composer-level prop changes (multisampling etc.) could dispose effects still in use by the new composer, discarded EffectPass wrappers leaked their own material and kept a stale change listener on the effect they wrapped, and a user's own EffectPass rendered as a child could be mistaken for one we generated. --- src/EffectComposer.tsx | 85 ++++++---- src/tests/EffectComposer.test.tsx | 269 ++++++++++++++++++++++-------- 2 files changed, 258 insertions(+), 96 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/EffectComposer.tsx b/src/EffectComposer.tsx index 7b0fef8..fdac235 100644 --- a/src/EffectComposer.tsx +++ b/src/EffectComposer.tsx @@ -59,11 +59,8 @@ type ComposerState = { const isConvolution = (effect: Effect): boolean => (effect.getAttributes() & EffectAttribute.CONVOLUTION) === EffectAttribute.CONVOLUTION -/** - * autoClear/toneMapping get force-set and never restored by whoever sets - * them.
