The N in `Compiling Shaders N` in Text Info, is the number of how many shaders are left in the queue. It's a countdown, but this wasn't mentioned and led to confusion. Ideally this text would be like Cycles' "Samples 50/100", but in EEVEE it's not easy to guess how many shaders are left (this number could even go up mid-compilation). In the past there used to be a progress bar but it's also confusing because it could be 90/100 shaders done, but the remaining 10 are slow to compile. Change the text to "Compiling Shaders (N remaining)" so it's easier to understand what is going on. Similar to how some game engines do. |
