Realistic water node

[Vectrotek]

Now we're cooking.

[Vectrotek]

Now just bring back the Screen Quad for FXAA and fix the Above Water vs Under Water thing and were on our way..
It would be cool to have those "Underwater Post Processor back"..

@The_Glitch.. I had to have a close look at the Directory References in the code..
These strings were changed:

Code: Select all

 RealisticWaterSceneNode* water = new RealisticWaterSceneNode(TheSceneManager, 512.0, 512.0, "Shaders");

also in the Water Node File I had to have:

Code: Select all

   irr::video::ITexture* bumpTexture = _videoDriver->getTexture(resourcePath + "/waterbump.png");

It may or may not have something to do with your black screen..
(check in your console whether any shaders or image files were loaded)

This opens a few doors..

There's still some small issues but it looks O.K. so far..

[Vectrotek]

Issues such as the visible "clipped wavelets" at the borders of the screen
, some slightly weird reflections and Underwater Post Processing is solvable
simply because they are clearly solved in the other version elsewhere on the forums..

Gotta love skyrim

Better eyes

[Vectrotek]

Now render that to a screen quad three times, one with Normal Render,
one with Contrast so the eyes are isololated (hlsl contrast to rtt)
and one with the eyes blurred so they shine..
FXAA if you really like as a fourth pass..

Water optional..

[The_Glitch]

yeah going to look into a new technique for glowing eyes. I believe you need hdr rendering to have things that have there own level of brightness vs other objects in the scene.

I really looooked, but I don't see any water?

[The_Glitch]

There's not any water in those screenshots. I'm working on some new water effects I'll post when I get them up.

[Vectrotek]

Finally Figured out why we have the "Fresnel Term"..

[Vectrotek]

This one don't have the advanced "Depth" factors (other comple version) so we have to find a curve that relates
"Plane Clip Offset" with "Camera Distance From Water"..
Working On it..
