In the runup to today's Real-Time Shading BOF at #SIGGRAPH2026, Khronos has released the Shader Ecosystem Survey Results.
The results provide a summary of insights from over 400 shader developers, graphics programmers, rendering engineers, and tools creators. It captures a clear picture of how the real-time shading community works today — and where standardization efforts can deliver the greatest impact.

"Unlock the GPU as a general-purpose engine, not just a rasterizer."
This series takes you past `vkCmdDispatch` and into how compute actually executes on real hardware — occupancy, latency hiding, the Vulkan memory model, and subgroup operations that let invocations talk to each other without touching global memory.

Khronos has formed a Volumetric Media Subgroup to extend glTF for interoperability across the volumetric pipeline — capture, encoding, streaming, and playback. The effort includes a liaison agreement with the Volumetric Format Association, which will adopt glTF as its primary format for future specifications.
Any organization is welcome to join and contribute. Full details at the link.

The Khronos Group has announced glTF 2.1, a backward-compatible revision of the core spec focused on one goal: making glTF work as well for large, composed scenes as it does for single assets.
New in 2.1: external asset references, scene packaging, bounding volume hierarchies, thumbnails, 64-bit GLB, and more...
Spec development is open on GitHub. Learn more: https://www.khronos.org/blog/introducing-gltf-2.1-with-complex-scenes

Vulkan has published a new sample demonstrating Shader Execution Reordering (SER) for ray tracing.
SER separates ray traversal from shader invocation, letting the GPU reorder threads for better coherency before execution. The sample includes an interactive on/off toggle across three divergent material types, with real-world gains ranging from 11-24% in path tracing to 40-50% in high-divergence scenarios.

The Khronos 3D Formats Working Group has launched an Education, Insights, and Outreach (EIO) Subgroup to help developers and creators get the most from #glTF and #KTX — closing the gap between specification and real-world practice.
The Subgroup's first public webinar takes place tomorrow, April 7: Gaussian Splats: Use Cases & Next Steps for glTF Standardization.

Does anyone know if UE5's support for gltf's KHR_mesh_quantization will result in smaller vertices at runtime or is it just import support?

I am going to submit a 'New Initiative Proposal' to the Khronos group.

Yeah. I have a question.
Why is my data format a programming language now?
Maybe the real scientific, technological progress is the friends we make meme'ing about things like this.

For the record, this is one idiot techbro *assumption* without a shred of research.
It’s a false assumption, for anyone who actually reads research or does their homework.
Shame on Khronos for propagating random techbro opinion, but we should expect nothing less.

I released version 0.2.0 of my extensible 3d file format called STF.
It features a more streamlined import process, everything uses the same coordinate system as glTF 2.0, buffers can be longer than 32^2 bytes, and some bugs people reported were fixed.
Find the GitHub repo here:
https://github.com/emperorofmars/stf-unityIf you are curious, I made a 10-minute-long presentation video about STF:
