Physical Pool
|
Hello everyone,
This is the final project I, Darryl Barnhart, did as the final project for my recent game programming diploma at Humber College. It's a 3D fairly physically accurate pool simulation with some nice rendering. The physics and renderi... |

Evaluation of Isosurfaces in the Fragment Shader
|
First of all, I want to acknowledge Inigo Quilez and his previous submissions (see here) for inspiring this. I also want to acknowledge Auld, as I based my program off their code for Chocolux, which I got from Inigo's NVision presentation.

Boost:::Function Operation

I'm studying the boost library to expand my knowledge of C++, but I'm confused on one point.
In Boost::Function it states that it operated by function cloning. I'm not exactly sure what they mean my this. Is it that they hold an interal... |

Multi-Threaded Garbage Collector Problem

Ok so I've written this nice multi-threaded partitionable garbage collecter in C++. It's cool because there is no single global collector, but objects can be split between collectors that can have whatever collection algorithm and be schedualed howev... |

Quick Question.
|
If I do this in C++:
class Blah
{
public:
int var : 12;
};
Will the compiler add an extra 4 bits behind the scenes to byte align the class? |

Access Modifiers -- What's The Point? (Solved)

I've been experimenting with C++, and it seems that access modifiers (i.e. public/private) do nothing to change the underlying machine code that is produced and can easily be circumvented. It seems to me that they are merely a comment, and if that's... |

A Simple and Practical Approach to SSAO

Congratulations on the article, and thanks for the information I got from your original thread! |

Hi there! What's your story?
|
Darryl, 23 years old, student.
I like the technology behind games. I spend a lot of time writing rendering algorithms for fun. I've also toyed with OpenCL, which I used to make a 500,000 element particle system and a GPU photon mapper (using splat... |

I actually see very little difference between the two in terms of the visual patterns. It may just be an effect of the bilinear filtering. |

Perhaps it's because in OpenGL z values will have the opposite sign (ex: p.z)? |

I just noticed there's an error in my code. Here's a new and simplified version:
float sample(vec2 coords, float offsetFactor, vec3 basePosition, vec3 baseNormal) {
float nonlinearDepth = texture2D(sceneDepth, coords).r;
if(nonlinearDepth==1... |

the best ssao ive seen

So I was working on my own SSAO method, and I read this thread. Then I realized I could improve mine in a number of ways. In particular, I based my sampling pattern on ArKano's and used the notion of occluding discs. However, I use occludin... |

[SOLVED] "Shuffle" problem
|
Using an iterative method to resolve contacts can help here. Basically, you run through the contact solver 10 times or so to reduce these errors. You can also try an LCP solver, check out David Baraff's papers on this:

Well, like you said, you'd rather focus on different things. A programmer doesn't have to know every language out there, and you're not expected to put every language you've ever touched on your resume.... |
