Description

Optimize performances in a "Not using scale" mode (send only translation+quaternion to the shader, not a whole mat4x4).

See:

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the current implementation of baked vertex animations. Understand how the mat4x4 is passed to the shader. Look into forum discussions for performance suggestions. Implement a mode that sends only translation and quaternion, and measure performance improvement.
