Always wanted to try this out, but the downloads page is empty. SVN also doesn't work.

Somebody HELP THIS MAN

Put in some work on my mod today. I got a material shader that can load snapshots of websites or images, soon to be live webviews. Looks awesome being projected from the light source

it seems to me that a special ability like that would be best for unidirectional projections, ie onto a movie screen or onto the floor. amazing ability though.

Remember to enable texture filtering on your snapshots to reduce aliasing!

I would love to do that once I figure out how.

The webview is rendered onto a procedural texture. Is there a way to enable texture filtering on a procedural texture?

Here's a YouTube video of the projector light playing back a video with volume light effects in Anarchy Arcade:

Looks great, Sith Lord. I like how you also have an arcade for The Old Republic too.

Dude, sexy. Also yeah we should move the deferred mod to it's own thread Gary.

I think I can split threads. I can try ripping all of the deferred talk to it's own. I've wanted to do this for a while now, cause deferred mod does way more than touch shadow mapping. Give me a little bit.

Alright, no good. I'll have to get someone else to later. I got a weird error when trying.

Hey how are progress?

Nothing new so far for deferred or gary's stuff (I think). There will be some stuff soon for deferred though.

Go ahead and make a new thread for it when you guys update it.

I haven't done anything new lately. I might try to work on my improved env_global_light again.

Recently poking around in SwarmDeferred again, though I'm stumped on a (most probably) trivial setup issue. I'm on revision 59 and build works for me without incident, but I seemingly have summoned the shaderpocalypse compiling src.

Code: Select all

Found the missing pixel shaders in the src directories, but that hasn't amended the other shader errors or the situation seen here (plus crashes if I move too much from the spawn, though I figure that's related):

Any idears?

Did you compile the shaders correctly?
