What are you working on?

[hogsy]

Just finished working on both explosive and non-explosive barrels for OpenKatana. Stumbled into an overflow occuring while working on that, so that needs sorting later... Urgh...

Also officially been working on OpenKatana for four years now, yay...

@sock: as always, great atmosphere! You always take a normal quake level editor and transform it in experience! Great work

@mankrip: wow, can't wait to see some comparison tests!

@hogsy:yeah, time flies!

Recently I was working on my tyrutils fork, latest build is here: http://www.celephais.net/board/view_thr ... &start=334

Some of the new stuff:
- surface lights. Not using a new lighting formula like the q3 tools, but it just takes a template light entity and copies it across surfaces with the given texture name.

I tried using something closer to the q3map2/q3map code, and found it was hard to control. The point-to-polygon form factor approximation was always giving me hotspots (if you have lava in a box room, there would be bright dots on the wall near the lava surface).

- (qbsp) fixed messed up texture alignment on rotate_ entities
- light traces through fence textures

I counted the radiosity for single player levels for hi-res lightmaps with radiosity normalmapping data. Elapsed time - 7h 20min on i7 3770

So cool Barnes! I'm trying same effect in FTEQW with GSLS but, for now, no success. Is it GSLS yours, right?

[Barnes]

yes, glsl

[toneddu2000]

Very cool Barnes, can't wait to see a video with the all AO+diffuse+normal+realtime light put together!


Toying a little with cubemaps in FTEQW, possible, of course, only with Spike help. I created a simple room with a spinning car. Floor is realtime reflection, car is cubemapped. Every glsl used is available in and .

showing a subtle speckle effect that simulates car paint (that YouTube almost blurred ), and some fixes to reflections, background and lights to better visualize cubemaps

Figured out how to smooth the warping of turbulent surfaces, and this also improved the framerate by a significant amount.

Now I'm improving lots of stuff in the palette code.

Fixes for the skybox code should be next.

Video, screenshots & stuff should come soon.

@mankrip: can't wait to see palette improvements!
@sock: thanks! That screenshot is awesome! Are wall textures made by you? If so, they're so natural, and lava creates a unique mood. Perfect, as always! I wish I had the money to hire an artist like you for my game!
