Faked dynamicly animated water Hey there, I have a question regarding the implementation of a very big lake. I'm trying to create a rather large water surface. Water is only reflective (not refractive.) I am moving rowing boats over this water plane. With all settings &...

High dynamic range depth of field After doing some stuff with HDR I wanted to experiment with Depth Of Field. When I got that working I thought by myself: "Lets combine the two". GBS

Fast Depth of Field Rendering with Surface Splatting Im currently working on getting Depth of Field to work. I found a great paper from ATI and implemented this. But I soon found that a problem occures when using transparent objects. For instance, you have a window and behind it is a box. When foc...

for Applications, not games Hey all, My professor gave us this assignment; Create a game using Microsoft Access 2003. I had never programmed in Visual Basic nor Visual Basic for Applications so I started learning. I got it all under control now, but then I dived into creatin...

What are you ? NVidia or ATI person? Lately I noticed people getting devided into 2(or more) groups. ATI people and NVIDIA people. Wat the difference is? ATI people love ATI games, software, hardware, development etc. and NVIDIA people go for NVIDIA stuff. I found out that someone or...

D3DFMT_R8G8B8 texture format error.. I'm creating a texture,in dx9, with the standard call CreateTexture. It all works fine until I set the 24 bits format D3DFMT_R8G8B8. It seems that I just can't create 24 bits textures? (ogre works fine with PF_R8B8G8) I've got a Geforce FX5200.. ...

D3DXVec3Normalize link error Did you reference the lib file? Not only do you have to specify where they are you also have to reference them in your project under linker settings. The function call is the only things your using that is really inside the library. The...

boost library problem Are you building for unicode? It in the general option pane of your project. If so you should use the int main(int argc, wchar_t **argv) signature instead or change the character set to multibyte. Also what is the END_OF_MAIN() macro and the end o...

boost library problem Did you create a console project or a windows application? If your are building a windows application your entry point is the WinMain method. You can check it out under the linker->system options.

boost library problem main should be int main(int argc, char ** argv) if your compiling with multibyte character set, use wchar_t if your compiling with unicode character set.

light calculation for height map terrains Quote:and PRT sounds familiar.. wasn't it the technique that one of Direct3D SDK's (uh I used the d word in opengl forum :P) example implementing. (on a yellow bat as far as I can remember) it was looking good too. (or was it deformable PRT?) T...

my c++ exercise The problem is that an integer is a natural number. You should use the floats instead. Also as already pointed out by someone else, the ^ operator is a XOR operator and not a power operator. The error you were getting probably states that you can't u...

light calculation for height map terrains You could also look into PRT(Precomputed radius transfer) lighting. It does allow lights to move, but your mesh has to remain static. A similar technique is used in Unreal engine 3. ;] Gr, Bas [Edited by - GraphicsBas on April 5, 2009 3:50:53...

Double not operator? (!!) Quote:Original post by Sc4Freak void Foo(int x, int y) { if(!!x ^ !!y) { // x is nonzero and y is zero, or y is nonzero and x is zero } } Well dropping the !! there makes much more sense to me, as it's just a regular XOR...
