[The Ocean thread (the new one)]

Fixed both and reuppped, but they have their own sliders in the Ocean object.

If you set fog in the atmosphere object also set same values here in the ocean object, maybe abit brighter..

 

[The Ocean thread (the new one)]

The viewdistance can't be altered in the usual way, since it's a transparencyworld mesh I can't parent it to the entity without it bleeding.

So we need to increase the aabb around it. I can make a slider for that. And update it in the UpdateMatrix().

 

About the fog.. I need to look into that one. Thx.

 

needless to say, you're in my will...

Thanks

It's far from perfect, but give it a go : http://www.leadwerks.com/werkspace/files/file/355-ocean-refractive-depth-shader/

Surfs up new controls allow us to break waves (sort of) 30 meter wave.. ~ 80 feet?

 

[The Ocean thread (the new one)]

The FFT ocean was just a sidetrack for testing Joshs' dataset in my shader and won't be released by me.. but, the original Gerstner ocean is still coming as in the video in the first post.

[The Ocean thread (the new one)]

Real looking water looks much more boring than game-waters, so I think it's a matter of what you want it to look like.

Google ocean pictures and you see what I mean, google ocean 3d fft and you'll see simulated water/oceans.

If it's windy it gets noisy, if there is no wind, you have that glossy water game effect.

So what's your favorite color?

[How do I fetch fw reflection cam in editor?]

I know how to setup reflections in c++, but in the editor using lua and fw, is it possible at all ? The current waterplane use it, but theres more behind the curtain than the object-lua and shader I suspect.

[The Ocean thread (the new one)]

After Josh teaked it, I admit it looks better without all the noise

 

[The Ocean thread (the new one)]

it's 32x32 meters but they should be perfectly tileable, the fft data set is not something I'm releasing, I guess maybe Josh will use some of it in LE3 with tesselation or an adaptive mesh or something.

 

Here is the vid :

 

[The Ocean thread (the new one)]

Scaled the area down like suggested and the data plays alot better

 

[The Ocean thread (the new one)]

Yeah I thought about the wave area is too big, The glassy effect is the refraction normals are 8x surface normals, and it looks wierd on the picture, but it doesn't look that bad when it's in movement.

 

I will try out with smaller wave area, this way it should move better/faster without looking unnatural and I don't have to interpolate every other frame.

[The Ocean thread (the new one)]

Here is a couple of shots of the shader using FFT vertexdata (Josh kindly borrowed me a dataset)

It still struggles from interpolation issues either in data or conversion, so I'll post a vid later if I get rid of the issues (..and if Josh allows it)

Really great exports and all

I think it's a very nice reference for lua beginners.

I know I thought I was ready but I have som sunlight issues. So I guess I'm on valve time atm.
I also like to control the waves by dialog in the editor.

[Two texture layers on same polygons?]

Don't worry, I'm having fun doing shaderstuff

[Two texture layers on same polygons?]

@Shadmar

 

I'm probably doing something wrong.

With those changes my MaterialEditor and Editor crashes.

 

I have attached my files.

 

 

 

Ah..

 

You missed the directive around

diffuse *= texture2D(texture8,texcoord1); //texcoord1 reads UV channel 2

 

And #declare should be #define.

And The diffuse should also go in the 2uv.frag file

#define LW_DIFFUSE texture0

 

Looks good! This is what I got :

 

Here are the shader files fixed :

frags.zip

[Two texture layers on same polygons?]

shader change for this test was :

 

Before main() add

 

uniform sampler2D texture8;

 

Find

 

diffuse *= texture2D(LW_DIFFUSE,texcoord0);//*fOcclusionShadow

 

Add below this line :

 

diffuse *= texture2D(texture8,texcoord1); //texcoord1 reads UV channel 2

 

or use + to add it on top, use black as background.

 

Add texture8= to your mat file and use any diffuse shader.

 

Might be useful to use glsl preprocessor directives so it doesn't apply to everything.

Just create a mesh_diffuse_whateverelse_2uvmaps.frag and use

 

#declare dualUV 1

 

Then in mesh.frag test if this is true and apply the example above.

This way you can apply 2 UV sets using any shader, bump specular, glow or what not.

 

good luck

Let me know if it works or just ask,

[Two texture layers on same polygons?]

You can do this with 2 uv sets..

UV1 has 4 tiles UV2 has 1 tile...

 

..and a small shader change (2-3 lines or so in the mesh.frag)

 

[Two texture layers on same polygons?]

You can do that in a shader using to 2 texcoords for diffuse if you do the tiling in the shader you can keep the other stretched. Simply multiply them to blend even. Maybe the existing shaders support it, haven't checked.

[exception access violation problem]

A faulty lua script can cause this. Try to disable the urban_box_mixstack9.lua

[Road face problems]

You could try increasing the offset just a bit to 0.01

 

from the road_node.lua it should be :

class.roadoffset=0.005

Don't introduce him to LE, he has to remember Flip() aswell

Aaah... the Vic64. I still have a working specimen in the attic.

 

Wasn't it Vic20?.. I thought it was.. ah well long time ago..

 

Took me a long time before I got a PC.

Started out with a c64, then c128, then A500, then A1200, and finally a Pentium in 1994 orso..

 

Agree with MetaTron... WorkBench from Amiga was a very nice OS

[Wishlist for LE3D second release]

Terrain system, I like the chunked lod system we have now(if it is that), but it should be expanded to be movable, rotatable, have several ones in one world. Also wish we could control the tesselation of the chunks how much it should tesselate etc.
