compare:

:)

So people have finallye started releasing high quality textures with normalmaps on the interweb, so I thought it was time we supported them in sauerbraten.

The above screenshot does bump+spec, and some form of parallax mapping (needs tweaking). Moreover, all this works in harmony with lightmaps, using a system similar to what halflife 2 and far cry use indoors. So soft shadows with per pixel light, hurray!

Anyway, next release will have this stuff in, plus a nice set of textures to work with. And yes, to see any of this, you need a card capable of shaders of course.

Hi ppl, whenever I calculate lighting on, say, a 16k^3 map the floor disappears. Also, lighting isn't saved when the map is saved.

Without shaders -

With shaders -

I was just tinkering, getting to know the shader system. Very cool stuff, and quite easy to implement :)

The -f switch will still work to disable all the shader stuff...but thats a shame to do that to such a pretty game...a game that is NOT intended to run on a Cube1-able pc.

could this be implented on water as well? shiny pebbles next to dull water would look a bit odd o.O

AFAIK water shaders are on the TODO list...

Yeah I suggested something like that a while back, reflective water. My current map is on hold, it looks stupid with normal water :P

We might also need a water material type that does not move at all, it also looks stupid because I tried putting small puddles in a cave, and the water moves like crazy even though its a small puddle.

I just finished downloading the source from the Sauer CVS - WOW, WOW, WOW; the normal maps are amazing - really amazing! People are going to flip after the new binaries are released!

#29: cvs

When I try to get the cvs for Sauer it keeps asking for aardappel@sauerbratne.cvs.sourceforge.net's password, but I'm loggin in as anonymous. Anyone know what's wrong?

I had this problem when I used tortoisecvs, I could check it out once, but when I tried to update, it would ask me for aards password.

Couldn´t really figure out why and what to do about it, I´m afraid.

Since I use SmartCVS I don´t have this problem anymore, you might try that, imho one of the best cvs clients.

I figured it out, simply remove all folders called cvs and it will work. YAY!

Well, I've got the cvs version But none of the maps seem to have the new textures, do I need some files that aren't in the cvs?

the maps aren´t in the menus yet.
try
/map aard3b
or "metl4"
or "bumptest"

Thanks, the textures appera normal though, I've got a NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 with recent drivers, is my video card the problem?

by makkE on 06/29/2006 22:24

Yes, your video card doesn´t support shaders so they are turned off automatically.

I can't see the normalamps. I have a 6800GS and it supports the other shaders.
