What I did today

[pitbuller]

Quickly tested gbuffer modification shader idea for desert town. Idea is to add procedural dust top of horizontal surfaces which just desatures albedo to sand color, specular to sand levels and lerp rougness towards max. It's also fill small cracks independantly on normal direction. For vertical surfaces its create just some dirt gray to give some weary/old look. Quite happy with initial results after half of hour coding. Goal is to allow better asset reusing for different themes.

Future ideas would be use some kind of noise and maybe even adding dust to corners which I could detect by reusing SSAO info with some treshold and ramp.

Try moving the wings further forward.

How's this?

[HeroesGraveDev]

Much nicer. You could also try moving the guns further out so they're not firing into the propeller, but I think it works fine as it is.

Got bored and made a Particle Rain thing (Java2D, doesn't support multiple lights)Edit:added multiple lights (not shown in gif):

Today I finally brought myself to finish the wall editing part of editor. The automatic connection part for "wall painting" is trivial but with the graphical progression I needed more variations. Now I can go through the wall variants (normal/door frame/window/broken/etc.) by hovering over the wall and use mouse scroll. This of course broke my map format, so I was demotivated for a couple of days :-).

Also flirting with a more top-down view for the tactical combat:

Added some tooling to hep me playing with character setups.

Sorry about that, updated.

I'm finally back to walking around in the world of Yore.



Do I dare move this to a WIP Legends of Yore 2 ?

I found out opengl spec is out: http://www.opengl.org/registry/
I looked at some siggraph stuff: https://labs.sketchfab.com/siggraph2014/
I read a bean-tracing overview: http://www.fxguide.com/featured/beam-rendering-extended-at-siggraph-2014/
I read a preview blog about an upcomming paper: http://casual-effects.blogspot.fr/2014/08/screen-space-ray-tracing.html

I read about the OpenGL Initiative. This will be very awesome if Khronos is able to pull this off as it will get rid of all the bloat that has accumulated in the API over the years and give us a modern way to access the CPU and GPU.

It will give DX12 and Mantle a run for their money if Khronos can finish this.

[princec]

Not so worried about how much or how little it trounces DX12 and/or Mantle as I am that it's client-deployable, modern, and properly cross-platform and bug-free.

Some more fun with particles:

Just tryin' to keep busy

Implemented scrollpanes last night. Turns out they need their own sprite engine, so it was quite a complex affair. Very satisfying to see a listbox working inside one though.

I guess that's just a placeholder.
To be honest I preferred the isometric look, but it looks okay-ish in this side scroller format too.

[kingroka123]

I'm done.

Rage quit programming, that's what I did.

I actually got around to make a small video showing my 3D FP-Prototype. (Note: The 'FP' is just 'FPS' without the 'S')

Looks great, good job!

[thedanisaur]

Lookin good, one crit I might consider reducing the head sway a tad. Watching the video made my eyes feel a little weird, but I'm sure when at the controls it feels different so idk. Just some friendly advise 

[Screem]

Drew the art for the next update to City Jumper, and I'm really proud of it. Right now it's just a mock-up but today I'm going to implement it in code.
