Are the caustics just random, or are they actually calculated based on the surface normals?

I think that errors sometimes look more interesting than the expected results. Click here for the full 1296x758 image.

I get a single white pixel with both Firefox 3.5 and Chrome. However I'm really digging the pictures.

That looks neat. When you say you are ending the triangle strip, are you manipulating the geometry in shader code?

My current weekend project is one of those procedural planet things. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kx_4EmlQiyQ That video shows 1/6 of a sphere. Each of those squares is a 65x65 piece of the mesh. The terrain is generated using Perlin noise on demand. As you can see, I've got a ways to go before it starts looking like a planet.

danishcake posted:That was really impressive - did the color indicate different detail levels paging in and out? Thanks. And yep, that's what's going on there. The detail levels are paged from system memory to video memory. I assign a random color when initializing the GPU resources. I'm hoping to have real textures soon-ish. I'm working on a way to create procedural textures from XML files.

Strumpy posted:Very nice! How are you generating the 'noise' on the GPU and what is your texture output resolution? I'm really interested in this as I am making some procedural planets and this is the kind of thing I want to end up with! If you would like to share your methods I'd be super happy! Thanks. Right now the noise function is being sampled at each pixel fragment per frame in the pixel shader. I'm going to change it later to render once to a texture. I can render ~10 octaves of noise at 1680x1050 at around 400fps. It seems really fast. I copied most of the ugly stuff from GPU Gems. You should look at this article. There's a link somewhere on that site for the source code and optimized version. I've also got a blog at jetaylor.net you might be interested in. (You may be the only one. It gets like 0 traffic.)

Roflex posted:it involved a really faraway camera and a really narrow FOV You could just use an orthographic projection, unless you're going for an "almost orthographic" effect like you see in Blizzard games.

Roflex posted:Maybe I'm misunderstanding the Ortho view but the way I did it, it's still 3d/perspective at the core, allowing free view from any angle. You can still rotate things and move the camera around with an orthographic projection. It's pretty trippy. Take Fez for example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--gpfYwo5a4 Note the spinning logo at the end.

It might work as a header only font? Use something a little less stylized (i.e. more readable) for the content.

I guess it would make more sense to me if you just said up front that it is a hosted data store with a REST endpoint. Unless it does something different.

Clavius posted:Some of yall might remember the little zelda-ish JS game engine I posted a while back. Well I kinda spent a ridiculous amount of time rebuilding it from the ground up with a crazy editor and proper zelda 3 graphics and stuff. Here's how the game looks: That is pretty swanky. I remember writing something similar using in c++ back in college, but your implementation is much nicer. I like the little circle mask effect you have when you go in a cave.

At some point they decided the best course of action would be to trace over the assets and call it Graal. Edit: Huh... I still have a screenshot laying around of the original version.

fletcher posted:It depends on so many factors. How much you're willing to pay, how much time you want to spend managing it, how much traffic you're getting, is there a chance the site can blow up and you need to scale with it, etc. My default answer would be EC2, but it's probably overkill for a lot of things. And it's not trivial to use, you will need to invest some time in learning how to use AWS. Knowing AWS basics may also be a good thing to have in your back pocket since it's used everywhere now.
