R5: Trees
|
I've long lamented the absence of any decent textures freely available on the internet with which to create trees. Models and textures found on turbosquid and other similar sites are either of such high poly count that they're unusable in g... |

Deformable Terrain Gen
|
Just a quick demo of a procedurally generated terrain for a game I'm working on, inspired mainly by Dwarf Fortress. This demo generates a 4096x4096 heightmap using perlin noise, calculates a normal map, downsamples the heightmap to 512x512 dimen... |

R5: Skeletal Animation
|
It has been a while since I posted here, but the work on the R5 engine has continued at a steady pace. I've recently added a powerful yet simple to use skeletal animation system to the engine, and figured it might be worth making a quick post!

R5: High Quality SSAO
|
After tackling deferred rendering I dove right into Screen Space Ambient Occlusion. I have to admit it's a fair bit more expensive than I thought it would be. The approach I use for the high quality version:
1. Sample the depth at the pixel and fi... |

R5: Deferred Rendering approach
|
I have to admit it took me over a year to finally get enough time to sit down and implement a deferred rendering approach in my engine. Still, the results are pretty impressive from the benchmarking perspective. Even my poor MacBook with an integrate... |

Depth-only rendering nerfs texture quality?
|
I'm curious if anyone else noticed this strange bug.
If a scene is rendered to a frame buffer object with only a depth texture attached to it, all the textures used in the rendering process turn into what looks like 16-bit (thanks to Yann for... |

Seamless Noise

I was playing around with the Seamless Noise generation class I developed as part of the R5 Game Engine I've been working on for the past year and a half and thought hey, this could make a fairly interesting Image of the Day. So here it is!

ATI... why do you hate me...

Alright, so I am getting quite pissed at ATI lately... I develop at home on my NVidia 8800 GTX and everything works perfectly fine. I then come to work and try to run my engine on ATI X1650, and lo and behold, half the time something is mes... |

Messed up graphics after going full screen?

Hi guys, I'm wondering if someone with a bit more experience than me in the area of Windows/OpenGL can offer a bit of insight regarding a bug I've stumbled upon: Going fullscreen messes up my graphics big time. At the bottom are screenshots to illust... |

Blending issues when rendering to a FBO texture

Hey guys,
I'm wondering if anyone is familiar with an issue I've encountered today. Basically I create a FBO with a bound GL_RGBA texture, render my UI to it, then draw a simple quad on the screen with the FBO's texture stretched across it. I... |

Very nice. I took a quick look at your google source page. It looks like you've abstracted out the render api layer. Are you thinking of writing a dx11 layer too?
Although it's certainly a possibility, I will likely j... |

Hello,
WHen I run the program, I just see empty black trees. Am I supposed to push a button somewhere to see something/generate leaves? (Generate button doesn't do anything)

Thanks for the suggestions!
Unfortunately a debug build wouldn't be very helpful in this case as spookycat mentioned the app freezing when trying to generate a second canopy texture, implying the need to pause the app via visual studio's debugger... |

Those trees look great, and thankyou for providing source code, I will be having a play with this for sure. I did download the exe and it ran fine and looks great but it freezes when I try to generate a new texture.

Thanks for the comments! There are indeed a lot of leaves, but since the leaf textures are procedurally generated, the sliders control how many leaves are placed on each texture as well as the size of the leaves to begin with. In the demo you ha... |

Unity Technologies Releases Unity Asset Server 2.0

The sad thing is, the asset server is only useful because of the way Unity stores the majority of its scene and asset information (metadata files and folders it generates). Had their developers simplified it and used something like an ASCII solu... |
