wing64 not to be harsh but from the other arsa framework pictures this one looks kinda like "old technologie" and the others were more like "new technologie"...i hope you dont take it personally or wrong in anyway

[devsh]

His tech is "new technologie", except for the PCF filtering.
The only thing which makes the screenie look old is the quality of the artwork but all of us as programmers can understand that.

Are you sure the AA is working? I see a lot of jaggies in the pic.

[devsh]

he has deferred rendering so he uses an edge detection shader... most probably its not perfect. The only technique allowing for AA and deferred rendering is Inferred Rendering which I shall be implementing, it will allow AA for alpha polygons only though cause I cba with a second pass on all geometry.

The only technique allowing for AA and deferred rendering is Inferred Rendering

That's a pretty harsh generalization right there, there are enough techniques to allow for AA in deferred pipelines, only hardware MSAA won't work natively because of the use of MRTs

Techniques like MLAA look absolutely amazing, are fast and fit perfectly in a deferred pipeline

[hendu]

I think we've talked about this before, but GL supports MSAA with FBOs (MRTs). IIRC it was only on dx10 level and up, but supported nonetheless.

MLAA also works very well, and with several implementations freely available no reason not to use it really, if you're making an engine.

[wing64]

Thanks for a comment.

[devsh]

I'm silently creeping on with a cool inferred lighting screenshot for this month's competition!
Its going to be a stained glass window globe casting light accordingly and maybe some shadows

I doubt I will be able to beat wing64 though

[sio2]

Irrlicht DX11.

evandromillian's DX11 driver with some fixes/tweaks and my own Irrlicht Quake3 BSP scene node. BSP map is ChiropteraDM by Alcatraz / Nunuk / Sock.

Looks nice

Another screen from OR Project... this is called "sp123 laby"
