SA WIP SA::Render

[MRZ]

Petka; Is there any intention to make SSAO ? And , Do the shadows need The Original Shadow to be rendered? I mean , If we deleted the original Shadows , would it affect the Rendered ones? Noop question , But if it won't affect it , Some modders will make the models of SA with no more shadows , and delete existing ones which would boost the game performance a lot

Absolutely Great Shadows, Mate , Keep it up

By the way , Hope that you made settings for the shadows as well as the rest of the effects , Some will like to change them when this mod is released.

I have no idea about SSAO, but PetkaGTA did do some testing with that few months ago. But as far as I know, old shadow mapping won't be used at all, thus old shadow mapping from vehicles, buildings etc. won't affect performance.

This mod looks amazing. You deserve a cookie.

[PetkaGtA]

Added PCSS(Percentage-Closer Soft Shadows) and Adaptive Tonemapping with bloom.

I literally don't know how to react to this awesomeness.

[alex8ball]

[jackusCTB]

Is this SA anymore? If it wasn't for the HUD, many people would mistake this for IV:SA.

[PetkaGtA]

Added working GUI(AntTweakBar).. Adjusted Adaptive Tonemapping looks totally awersome

[MAD BOSS]

That second pic, just wow.... I've noticed that the car windows alpha is kinda buggy. Does the car use alpha material, or alpha texture?

[PetkaGtA]

well that's not bug, that's feature(well for this moment, because we render transperent and opaque objects together and it simulates stipple alpha) but anyway some day we can avoid this bug

Fantastic work Petka. Can't wait to have it in my game.

[lpgunit]

well that's not bug, that's feature(well for this moment, because we render transperent and opaque objects together and it simulates stipple alpha) but anyway some day we can avoid this bug

Besides, it's what most developers use as a cheap workaround for alpha transparency on a deferred engine, although others have come up with better solutions.

This + HRT = <333333

Are you guys going to commit these changes to the source tree on Google Code/Sourceforge?

Petka does SA::Render add the parallax mapping technique with displacement mapping? That would be really awesome, so we could see realistic walls,... for example.

[Meheraj7]

Totally , no words !! Just Awesome !

If you use my map in this render , its just GTA V

nope

well maybe i will upload it today(just because of reinstalling windows several times i didn't load all those tools for MSVS)

anyway... i think to add some more improvements(ssao, post shadow blur(which will blur lighting and ssao too using bilateral blur) and some interesting techniques for lights to make them look a way better(lensflares etc.)) and maybe public release will come

well... maybe later after public release i will add ability to use DM as alpha chanel of normal maps

Thanks for the fast reply, I like the way to put the DM on the alpha..

It aint a mod pack, btw , I only told to check out my map !

@Meheraj7 just don't go offtopic ok? if you want to advertise your mod(but whatever you never get money or anything for it) find some other place.

But anyway Cool Guys Don't Look at Explosion

[Danikov]

Oh god,can't wait!

 

p.s. is that Depth of Field I see?

[goodidea82]

The mod has made another leap forward. Especially the day scenes look really great.

 

The explosions have nice textures but the lighting seems a bit inconsistent because the walls are illuminated but not the ground---as if one was lit by a point light an the other not.

[SilverRST]

I'm a little confused about those ice screenshots. Are those screenshots of GTAIV in sun-saoked timecyc mod or just GTAV?

I really can't tell the difference, except there is CJ around lol

[nkjellman]

Very impressive to see good old render ware pumping out those graphics. Do you think you may do any of the following in the future?

-III::Render, and VC::Render

-Height Maps (May look weird, and may require next gen quality textures)

-God Rays

-Ambient Occlusion

 

Also do you think it may be possible to remove the feature that lowers the draw distance when you fly high? Also, do you think that shaders could be used on the clouds (along with better textures, maybe some could be ripped from GTA V)?

 

Edit: Is the source code for Revision 99 the newest version, or is it an older version?
