Post Your Irrlicht Screenshots / Render Here.

[Eigen]

Devsh, with some modifications, it could be made to look like a pencil drawing (keep the edges wavy but a little smoother to look like hand drawing, also a litte smudge here or there .. or straighten them out completely and go for a blueprint style of drawing), it could be quite an interesting artistic style for some game. Make the image transparent so only the lines are visible, add an paper surface texture backdrop and you're set.

@hendu:

Sweet! Any performance statistics? Did you try it out on more complex scenes already?
MLAA is somewhere far back on my to-do list too

[hendu]

Currently gathering statistics, but it's not that optimized yet. More complex scenes work just as well, but as expected more aliasing = less performance.

It's in GLSL and the minimum hw is Radeon X1xxx and Geforce 6.

[devsh]

could you share some code and I'll share some of mine with you (or you can have my services for some small thing like godrays or ssao, or just technical consultancy)

[hendu]

Thanks, but I don't really have any Irrlicht project underway right now.

BTW, the code for this is public There goes my free consultancy or SSAO


The credits go to Jorge Jimenez really, it's a port of his algorithm for DX. I'll start a separate topic for my code soon.

Godrays implemented as a postproduction effect!

I have done a(nother) modification to Irrlicht so you can clear the backbuffer without clearing the z-Buffer

[Radikalizm]

Ahh, good ol' gpu gems, I've implemented that effect in irrlicht too a while ago to test my post-processing framework

One question though, how can you have crepuscular rays in outer space, seeing as you need dense dust particles for those (or is your scene encapsulated by a dome or something like that?)

[ACE247]

There's ALOT of dust(and gas) in space.

Sure, but enough gathered in one place like that to create those crepuscular rays would be a rather rare situation
I've never seen a picture taken outside of our atmosphere which had crepuscular rays, but feel free to prove me wrong of course

[ACE247]

Well the thing is, crepuscular rays can only be observed when we get very close to the occluding object. Because they spread so far out immediatley afterwards, that if we observed a galaxy from 5 MLy away, they'd be so far spread apart we couldn't see them!
Here are some though, nearby nebulae(unimaginable amounts of dust in one place):

[Radikalizm]

I'm not sure, but aren't the EM waves those clouds emit outside of the range of visible light?
Also, I'm certainly not arguing the presence of such particles, I'm perfectly aware of the fact that they're there, it's just that the presence of crepuscular ray in an non-atmospheric setting looked strange to me, as crepuscular rays are pretty much defined as phenomena which appear within an atmosphere

Doesn't matter that much though, it still looks nice in Mel's scene

[stefbuet]

I like those crepuscular rays!
Here is an in-game screenshot :
deferred lighting
dual paraboloid VSM
faked reflexion/refraction (taking into account lighting & shadowing!)
bloom & antialiasing as postprocess
1280x1024, FPS will be improved for sure.
[shadow maps :2x2048x2048]
Physic simulation @ 100Hz
System: Phenom II X3 @ 2.6GHz, GeForce 260GTX...

[hendu]

Your game is starting to look very much like Neverball.

Looking good
All that white in the background is blinding though
