Terrain screenshots from my RPG Hello, Here are some terrain screenshots from a multiplayer RPG project that I’m working on. I have finally got around to updating the graphics and have just implementing HDR and atmospheric scattering. The sky uses an implementation of...

Terrain screenshots from my RPG Quote: The terrain looks a little lacking in detail to me, but I love the sky and water! Beautiful over all... Yea, maybe I could add some foliage and clouds one day to make it more interesting. Quote:Original post by mntlinstituteflr ...

Terrain screenshots from my RPG Quote:Original post by pixelperfect In that case I'm not entirely sure you're using your cycles wisely. If you've got a single height map floating point texture that you're sampling in the vertex shader, then what's the point? You may as well be us...

Terrain screenshots from my RPG Quote:Original post by pixelperfect so you're using geometry clipmaps then? Well no, the only similarity is that i'm using regular grids. I dont store texture images for each level, and dont use blend regions to remove gaps. Edit: If I...

Atmospheric Scattering halo Problem Quote:Original post by MattL I think the only difference between those equations and the equations i'm using is the partial sphere coefficients (or whatever you call em': (3.0 / (16.0 * pi)) & (1.0 / (4.0 * pi)) ) Right? Possibly, I'm not su...

Atmospheric Scattering halo Problem Hello, Try calculating the inscattering using the formulas directly from the paper. float betaRay = (3.0 / (16.0 * pi)) * bRay * (1.0 + cost*cost); float betaMie = (1.0 / (4.0 * pi)) * bMie * ((pow(1.0 - g, 2.0)) / pow(1.0 + g*g - 2.0*g*...

Terrain screenshots from my RPG Quote:Original post by Callidus What algorithm(s) do you employ for the terrain, e.g. geo mipmaps? I'm using nested regular grids (with the centres removed except for the first) and sample the heights in a vertex shader. Alternatively I input hei...
