Screenshot of the Month November [Winner announced!]

[devsh]

just a word about what i will submit this month... I already started copying the trees

wi can do crysis godrays and light scattering.. also fin extrusion as stated in GPU gems 3 with geometry shaders

Parallax Occlusion Mapping with fin extrusion having phun

[Eigen]

Devsh, it's looking nice. You seem to know what you're doing. The texture looks a little stretched though ..

[Virion]

devsh does that increase the number of polygon?

[devsh]

yeah by 2 on every triangle that is perpendicular to the camera...

it's not a lot trust me

for a 12 triangle cube it will be +8 best case and +16 worst but as the polycount gets larger and the mesh is irregular the fin polycount is much lower than the mesh's polycount

also a word on geometry shaders, on that grass demo I outputed 56 cloned triangles for every real triangle and still no change to FPS, while here i output only 2 trigs every triangle that is perpendicular.

[devsh]

also what you might find is that the fps is 5 when the edge occupies half the screen at 1600 resolution, but does not have any impact when the object is at sensible distance (when the edge was as close as in the screenshot the fps was 76)

i try a luck ))

this is a great work of art, skip it - terrible sin:))

Hi,

i found time to work on my boids demo the last few days.

From the changes.txt:

Code: Select all

. compiles now with 1.6 and above
. fixed memory leak in Teleporter
. fixed memory leak in Forest
. new menu and options state.
. improved boids ai
. camera can now be inverted on the fly
. improved performance
. some minor bug fixes
. now uses Irrlicht's geometry creator for the boid meshes
. added more lights, app is more shiny in general
. cleaned the code a bit
. particle.bmp is now pot


And here's a random screenshot

LAdies && Gentlemen....

I'm hi-jacking the competition

[BlindSide]

You need a better blur shader, dude.

Is that HDR or just a glow pass?

[m_krzywy]

That's fake hdr? Ogre's method?

[Virion]

the wood looks very flat even though it seems to have extrusion.

[stefbuet]

God rays are cool

[devsh]

its full HDR and i would like some constructive feedback.... and when i post images here they are blown up and therefore pixelised
