Beds.

[BethOfDeath]

I made my bed, and way too many more. May others have the comfortable sleep upon them which I went without while working on these.

active_de_bed_29:

• Split up collision mesh into three pieces of much more reasonable computation volume. Should help in the cramped interiors this is used in.
• Combined the checks notes sixteen NiTriShapes the rope weave was composed of. Reduces 20 drawcalls to 5.
• Reunwrapped metal rings to reduce islands.
• Vanilla: 39447 bytes; new: 32264.

active_de_bed_30:

• Same as for _29
• Vanilla 39327 bytes; new: 32744

active_de_bed_01

• Split collision
• Booleaned mattress and bedframe to remove clipping
• Reworked topology of the underside of the bed to fix normals
• Removed hidden intern faces from head of bed
• Combined UV islands
• Assigned the faces using the tx_wood_swirlwood_strip_01.dds texture to use the tx_wood_swirlwood_trim_02.dds texture's version of the same strip instead, and combined with the other NiTriShape using it. It's slightly downscaled, but not enough to notice, and saves a drawcall. An alternate solution would be to use the tx_wood_swirlwood.dds texture for more of the model, fix the wood grain, and use just the tx_wood_swirldwood_strip_01.dds texture for the one bit that needs it, but I felt that was too much of a departure.
• Created LOD doing exactly that, using tx_wood_swirldwood.dds for the entirety of the wood.
• Vanilla: 30555 bytes; new: 47692 (+56%)

active_de_bed_02

• Split collision
• Reduced UV islands
• Added LOD to reduce from 6 drawcalls to 3.
• Vanilla: 32985 bytes; new: 40802 (+24%)

active_de_bed_03

• Split collision
• Booleaned mattress and bedframe to remove clipping
• Reworked UVs to reduce islands and stretch.
• Added LOD to reduce from 5 drawcalls to 2.
• Vanilla: 23512 bytes; new: 41914 (+78%)

active_de_bed_04

• Split collision
• Booleaned mattress and bedframe to remove clipping
• Reworked UVs to reduce islands and stretch.
• Added LOD to reduce from 4 drawcalls to 2.
• Vanilla: 19316 bytes; new: 36035 (+87%)

active_de_bed_05

• Booleaned mattress and bedframe to remove clipping
• Added edge loops to provide more vertices for better vertex lighting.
• Added a few UV seams to reduce stretching and combined islands.
• Added LOD to reduce from 4 drawcalls to 2.
• Vanilla: 19320 bytes; new: 36749 (+90%)

active_de_bed_06

• Booleaned mattress and bedframe to remove clipping
• Added edge loops to provide more vertices for better vertex lighting.
• Added a few UV seams to reduce stretching and combined islands.
• Added LOD to reduce from 5 drawcalls to 3 and booleaned head-of-bed pieces to reduce clipping. Didn't feel like going back to do it for LOD0, as there's little measurable real-world benefit from this microoptimization on even mid-tier 2015-era laptop hardware unless there are many models in a row in a direct line.
• Vanilla: 30132 bytes; new: 58403 (+94%)

active_de_bed_07

• Reworked collision mesh. Was 32 tris in 3 trishapes and was calculated a significant volume beyond its visual model. While I didn't see the point of doing so for the previous models, I did change this. Now 52 tris in 2 trishapes and better conforming to visual mesh.
• tx_wood_swirlwood_design was flipped and its mesh clipped into the head posts. I've fixed the latter, but left the former alone.
• Reduced UV islands in the few places (headboard and footboard mirrored portions) possible.
• Booleaned where possible to remove or reduce clipping.
• Reweighted and stitched normals.
• Removed hidden bogus faces from mattress.
• Added LOD to drop from 7 drawcalls to 2.
• Vanilla: 22233 bytes; new: 44518. (+100%)

active_de_bed_28

• Split up collision
• Reweighted normals
• Replaced the tx_wood_weathered10 texture with more of the tx_wood_oldwood, as the faces in question all point directly down at the floor and are extremely unliked to be seen in-game. Combining the resulting UV islands causes the texturing to look similar anyway, on casual glance, in case of anywhere or any mods having the model knocked over.
• Scaled UVs on side ropes 2x to better match the texel density of the woven rope texture.
• Vanilla: 30184 bytes; new: 40928. (+36%)

active_de_bedroll:

• Combined bedroll pillow collision model with main roll's collision model, then split the whole thing in half, to reduce the computation volume.
• Straightened edge loops and UVs on bedroll to subtlely fix slight UV stretch more easily
• Adjusted UVs of pillow and scaled up one end's UVs to match the texel density of the rest
• Adjusted topology of the wicker base to fix normals and vcol blending.
• Added two LODs to reduce draw calls and then tri count, as this model is used outdoors.
• Vanilla: 30184 bytes, previous MOP: 13400; new: 28159.

active_de_bed_17:

• Split collision
• Normals work and stitching
• Cleaned up bedframe topology to improve normals; added edge loop along long side to hopefully improve vertex lighting
• Cleaned up topology of matteress and added edgeloop around middle to, again, improve vertex lighting
• Added an LOD to reduce from 6 drawcalls to 3.
• Vanilla: 30551 bytes; new: 58568 (+92%)

active_de_bed_08:

• Same as other beds.
• Added LOD reducing from 7 drawcalls to 2, because I'm honestly tired of of this at this point and adding a middle LOD which only reduces to 4 at a closer range is too bothersome right now.
• Vanilla: 22290 bytes; new 45376 (+104%)

active_de_bed_10:

• Same as ever. Extra care with sharp edges and normals tweaking than usual, need to compare ingame.
• LOD reduced from 4 to 2 drawcalls.
• Vanilla: 19313 bytes; new 43304 (+124%?!)

active_de_bed_11, 12, 13:

• Same as previous, except it's from 5 drawcalls to 2.
• For _12 and _13: copied new active_de_bed_11.nif and changed texture of blanket to match vanilla models, and saved to new NIF.
• Vanilla: 19792 bytes; new 44078 bytes for _11, and a byte or two change for the others from the changed texture filename.

active_de_bed_14:

• Copied new active_de_bed_10 and changed blanket texture filename to match vanilla's _14.

active_de_bed_15:

• Usual work. Split collision mesh.
• Vanilla: 19801 bytes; new: 38947 (+97%)

active_de_bed_16:

• Copied _15 and changed the blanket texture. No, it's not precisely identical -- the legs are moved over about 0.005723 m -- but close enough.

active_de_bed_18, _19:

• Copied _01 and changed blanket texture.

active_de_bed_20:

• Copied _06 and changed blanket texture.

active_de_bed_21 through _25:

• Copied _07 and changed blanket texture.

active_de_bed_26, _27:

• Copied _08 and changed blanket texture.

furn_com_bed_01:

• Reworked terrible, awful normals.
• Combined blanket-covered pillows mesh with blanket-covered matress to remove overdraw and seams.
• Booleaned tx_wood_cherry_engraving mesh to to remove clipping into tx_wood_cherry mesh.
• Reworked UVs to combine islands.
• Created two LODs, to drop from 6 drawcalls always to 6 extremely close-up, 5 near, 3 far away.
• Vanilla: 32379 bytes; new: 84765 bytes. (+162%)

furn_com_bed_02:

• Split collision mesh
• Added edge loops to mattress to correct texture distortion and improve lighting
• Added edge loops to bedframe to improve vertex lighting
• Reworked UVs to reduce seams and islands. Some, on the knobs of the bedposts, were pretty visible in Blender, but I'm not sure they would be in game.
• Reworked normals, but there is a caveat. I am not sure what Bethesda was thinking with the little diamond-shaped bits of wood on the bedposts is supposed to be -- I know mortoise-and-tenon joinery well enough to know that is not how it would be shaped, and there would be another piece through the tenon pinning it in place for safety. -- I suppose the diamond-shaped bits could technically be hiding large iron nails or massive dowels? An odd choice.
• Added LOD to reduce from 5 drawcalls to 2.
• Vanilla: 25979 bytes; new: 41919. (+61%)

furn_com_bed_03:

• Split collision mesh
• Added edge loops to mattress to correct texture distortion and improve lighting
• Added edge loops to bedframe to improve vertex lighting
• Reworked UVs to reduce islands, but this resulted in significant change in appearance to the bedposts to correct brown lines from edges of texture being avoided.
• LOD to add minor simplification of bedframe. Total tricount reduction to 65% of LOD0.
• Vanilla: 19511 bytes; new: 36255 (+86%)

furn_com_bed_04

• Copied over _02 in Blender, changed textures as needed, reworked UVs to combine newly combinable islands and fix texture direction.
• Vanilla: 25503 bytes; new: 45534 (+79%)

furn_com_bed_05:

• Copied _03 and changed the mattress texture appropriately.

furn_com_bed_06:

• Same as with _01.
• Vanilla: 31906 bytes; new: 79924. (+151%)

furn_com_bed_07:

• Copied _04 and moved stuff (and replaced single edge loops with two on width) around to match vanilla _07's width.
• Split collision
• Vanilla: 25510 bytes; new: 53269 (+109%)

furn_com_bunk_01:

• Fixed bad normals
• Split collision
• I think I added extra edge loops for better vertex lighting?
• Vanilla: 21882 bytes; new: 54434. (+149% (!? I looked and at the time found insufficent reason for this to happen, it wasn't that many extra vertices and I tried to avoid having many islands.))

furn_com_bunk_02:

• Copied _01 and changed the mattress texture

I think the texture change on this bed is fine (imperceptible).
