Title: New sun... Post by: pspeed on April 23, 2012, 02:08:37 PM Playing around with a better looking sun. After a few hours of tweaking, this is what I have:

Title: Re: New sun... Post by: pspeed on April 23, 2012, 02:43:07 PM Looks very nice :)... does this mean sand won't be bright enough to blind someone now? :D Nope. Sand still behaves like sand. Title: Re: New sun... Post by: Danutron on April 23, 2012, 07:54:26 PM f9 is a very nice button
Title: Re: New sun... Post by: pspeed on April 23, 2012, 08:32:07 PM f9 is a very nice button Except it will go away or change when there are more fine grained video options. It turns off all post processing which makes underwater look like nothing, etc.. I've taken to pointing to photos now and saying "too much bloom". ;) And the really painful part is all of the videos uploaded with it turned off because F9 is also the default hot key for fraps recording.

The moon is already half dark but the texture mapping is screwed up and I never bothered to fix it. I rotated it to the one position where it looks half decent. Title: Re: New sun...

Maybe it's just hard to see in that pic. Title: Re: New sun... Post by: BenKenobiWan on April 24, 2012, 12:32:00 PM Those look nice! Keep it up!
Title: Re: New sun... Post by: Thanos on April 24, 2012, 03:56:25 PM The sun looks definatelly better now. As far as the bright sand is concerned i have a suggestion. How about implementing something similar to those guys on terasology? see the pictures below
when you walk closer to the sand the post proccessing effects gradually fade out far distance (http://i1242.photobucket.com/albums/gg524/ThanosFisherman/120425013647701.png) getting closer (http://i1242.photobucket.com/albums/gg524/ThanosFisherman/120425013749618.png) Title: Re: New sun... Post by: pspeed on April 24, 2012, 04:36:45 PM I will have simulated HDR someday... and snow/sand blindness, too. Until then... it is what it is. :)
