An extremely fast, randomly generated, animated vegetation system I created. The picture shown has 250 sprites of grass per triangle of terrain and runs very smoothly.

So I spent an hour or two testing a method of faked radiosity I thought of. Its not too pretty at the moment, but its incredibly fast, and is not screen space, meaning that it can get reflected light from objects not rendered by the main camera. It should be pretty nice once I work on cleaning it up, but at least the concept works

Chromatic Aberration

So I added a bit to my Chromatic Aberration Shader. Here, enjoy

So I wrote a python script in Maya to “voxelize” meshes, so that they can be exported directly into the Unity engine. The objects that are created can easily have rigidbody physics applied to allow them to be destroyed.

Comparison between scenes rendered without albedo textures, with and without radiosity

A comparison between scenes using no, medium and high radiosity( instant radiosity ). Notice the bleeding of colours caused by the colored flags on the walls, and the spreading of light through the hallway. For a single light, using deferred shading, performance is somewhat acceptable.

So I chained up a great deal of post processes I wrote, in attempt to render the scene as photo realistically as possible, while still maintaining an acceptable render time. I really love the result.

I made an extremely customizable chromatic aberration post process to simulate an old camera. I really really love the effect, when combined with a sublte fish eye post process.

Sat, 07 Apr 2012 01:13:06 -0400

So I went back and added SSAA and the new FXAA to my deferred renderer. FXAA still is not really that great, and edges end up a bit of a blurry mess, but it is god damn fast. I guess that’s something I have to live with having gone down the deferred shading path.

I’m working on a game called “Sweet Dreams”. Think of amnesia meets toy story. Its currently in early pre-production, so theres not really much to see at the moment, but heres the blog.

So I wrote a little system that allows the bending of space, and time around objects. It is different to usual methods in that it doesn’t rely solely on vertex shaders for deformation, and as a result, the bent objects react properly with physx.

Thu, 16 Feb 2012 09:27:00 -0500

So I created my own theme for the Processing IDE, and syntax highlighting scheme for various IDEs I use ( VS, Mono, XCode, Processing ) which I am actually in love with. Its essentially a dark version of the Visual studio theme, with more pastel colours. I’m surprised at how much better it feels to use a darker environmental, which I guess explains the switch by maya/3ds Max/unity to dark environments.

A few screenshots from a game I have been working on over the last 5 or so weeks. Its a stealth/infiltration style game, similar to metal gear solid or deus ex.

Fab 48 hour:

A great article about the competition I was in recently. I was with the team “Well Placed Cactus”. It was extremely fun. (And as can be read, our ideas were fueled by beer and lack of sleep haha)

A volumetric light shader I was working on a while ago. Ive improved it in terms of speed and appearance since.
