Strange render target glitch - deferred lighting
|
Hi,
I though it would be interesting to implement deferred lighting using C#/D3D9 (I want this app to have independence from XNA).
I've basically got it up and running, but can't seem to pin down the cause of some visual artifacts. When I compute... |

Possible: D3D10 + Sprites + fonts ?!
|
Hi,
I've been running into an annoyance when combining font rendering calls with sprite batch rendering during my rendering sequence. I'm using d3d10 and I've verified that my rendering of fonts and sprites actually produces results that i can see... |

Swimming Snake
|
This was our entry into the recent Global Game Jam 2010 event.
Entry's into the event had to satisfy a few constraints and in this case it was 'integrating deception' into the game in some way.
We came up with the idea of a snake swimming down a ri... |

Robust transformations from direction vector??
|
Hi, I was wondering if there is a robust method of constructing a world/model transformation via a vector that represents the forward vector of the final orientation. My idea is to take the direction vector and find it's other two orthogonal vectors... |

global HLSL shader structs (in D3D10)??
|
Hi, I've come from using HLSL in d3d 9 and I'm migrating to d3d10. Using d3d9, I was able to declare a global instance of a custom struct in my hlsl shader. It seems that I can do this in d3d10 too. However, using d3d9 I could set the data of the str... |

Maya: Access/Export color sets

Hi, I'm trying to access the color values of different color sets that are assigned to vertices on a mesh object. Until now I've been using the getColor function provided by the mesh iterators but this averages all color values present on a... |

Maya API: get material list?

I'm trying to get access to material objects in my scene via the Maya API. What I need is a result/list similar to that which is returned from the getConnectedShaders(..) function on the MFnMesh object. However I want this list to be independent... |

Strange render target glitch - deferred lighting
|
Hi, I tried disabling stencil/depth - I think I've found the problem - I was clearing the depth buffer during the normal/depth encoding/scene rendering pass to ensure that foreground geometry was always seen in front of the scene's skybox - i comment... |

Strange render target glitch - deferred lighting
|
Hi,
it looks like I can't set render target 0 to null in c#/d3d9 - when I do this I get an exception (?)
I'll experiment with the render state before the lighting pass - I'll let you know how things go,
thanks for your help

Strange render target glitch - deferred lighting
|
Hi thanks for your idea,
Suppose I was writing the diffuse color to RT0, and specular to RT1, do you suggest I flip it so that diffuse->RT1, specular->RT0?
I tried that, what I found was that the glitches occur independently from my shader co... |

Strange render target glitch - deferred lighting

I did give that a go - when I step through the pixel shader, correct values seem to be output on both COLOR0 and COLOR1. For an 'artifact pixel', the shader seems to be computing the right value - somehow it's just not appearing as it should in... |

Hi Moe,
thanks for that - yeah, I think the good thing about this event is it's duration - it's long enough to make a project like this doable but short enough to allow participants to sustain the level of efficiency and energy required to get it do... |

Possible: D3D10 + Sprites + fonts ?!
|
hi,
yeah it's all happening within the same render loop and the calls to font and sprite render are virtually right next to each other. I'm just trying to set up a basic ui for my application.
Something has just come to mind; do I need to have a... |
