Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is AI HLSL Code Explainer? Is it free to use?

AI HLSL Code Explainer is a completely free tool that explains HLSL shader code step by step, including what it does, how it works, and what each important line or block means.

Q2: Can AI HLSL Code Explainer explain pixel shaders, vertex shaders, and compute shaders? (Free tool)

Yes. AI HLSL Code Explainer is completely free to use and can explain common HLSL stages such as vertex, pixel (fragment), geometry, hull/domain, and compute shaders, including stage-specific inputs/outputs and semantics.

Q3: Does AI HLSL Code Explainer explain HLSL semantics like SV_Position and TEXCOORD? (Free)

Yes. This completely free AI HLSL Code Explainer tool breaks down semantics (SV_Position, SV_Target, TEXCOORDn, NORMAL, SV_DispatchThreadID, etc.) and explains how they connect to the pipeline and your shader structs.

Q4: Can the AI HLSL Code Explainer help me understand constant buffers (cbuffer) and register bindings?

Yes. AI HLSL Code Explainer is completely free to use and can explain cbuffers, packing/layout concerns, register(t#), register(b#), register(s#), spaces, and how resources are bound from the CPU side.

Q5: Is AI HLSL Code Explainer free, and do I need to install anything?

AI HLSL Code Explainer is completely free to use and typically requires no installation—just paste your HLSL code and (optionally) relevant context like shader stage, engine, and target API.

Q6: Can AI HLSL Code Explainer identify common HLSL bugs like wrong matrix multiplication or gamma issues?

Yes. The completely free AI HLSL Code Explainer tool can point out common pitfalls such as row-major vs column-major confusion, incorrect mul() order, mismatched spaces, sRGB vs linear sampling/output, and NaN/INF risks.

Q7: Will AI HLSL Code Explainer explain texture sampling, sampler states, and mipmapping? (Free tool)

Yes. AI HLSL Code Explainer is completely free to use and can explain Texture2D/SamplerState usage, Sample/SampleLevel/SampleGrad, filtering modes, address modes, LOD/mips, and related performance or quality implications.

Q8: Can AI HLSL Code Explainer explain performance considerations in HLSL (branches, loops, derivatives)?

Yes. This completely free AI HLSL Code Explainer tool can highlight performance-relevant patterns such as dynamic branching, divergent warps/wavefronts, expensive math, texture fetch counts, loop behavior, and derivative usage (ddx/ddy).

Q9: How do I get the best results from AI HLSL Code Explainer? (It’s free)

AI HLSL Code Explainer is completely free to use. For best results, include the shader stage (VS/PS/CS), the target (DX11/DX12), expected inputs/outputs, coordinate space assumptions, and any relevant engine or material settings along with your pasted HLSL code.

Q10: Can AI HLSL Code Explainer explain Shader Model differences (SM5 vs SM6) and feature-level constraints?

Yes. AI HLSL Code Explainer is completely free to use and can comment on Shader Model and feature-level considerations (supported intrinsics, wave ops, resource indexing rules, typing constraints) when that context is provided.
