OpenSauce Post Processing

Well shit. That would be insane.

wow, great work FireScythe

What exactly are we looking at in the second picture, and how can that aid in motion blur? Also, you should be able to do the cell-shaded look with edge finding on that depth map. Is there any way to fix the planes showing up for sprites?

The second picture shows the vertex/face position in screenspace (Although the full range can't be shown in the 32bit format we see), so if a copy of the previous frames position data is kept, we can get how much an object has moved, and blur it accordingly....in theory :P.

I'm working on the transparent textures. Trees and such should be fine, but I still need to figure out whether I can do particles.

If an object is moving across the screen, such as a warthog driving by, then wouldn't the position data between the front of the hog in one frame and the back of the hog in the next be almost the same? The only major change would come from the front and back of the hog where it's compared with the background. I'm not sure how you would pull objects out of the scene. On the plus side, that new SSDO method works using depth and position data doesn't it?

Amazing as always, can't wait to use this on OS2

Yep, this seems to be the problem iv'e been coming up against. Seems the way I thought it was implemented isn't quite right. I initially thought I could compare the positions of two frames at each pixel, but as you say, doing this means the difference between frames would be greatest at the boundry of a moving object and wouldn't give a per object velocity.

What I actually need to do is get the velocity of each vertex when the objects are initially drawn. However I can't think of a feasible way to do this without some major editing of vertex shaders and the like. So an accumulation buffer motion blur will have to do. Position information will still be available for other post process usage though :downs:.

i have open sauce d3d9.dlls for limited's 3rd person/fov app and your post processing app. some weapon's zoom turns the whole screen black. is that your app or limited's app?

also i dont know if anyone posted this or anything but the whole screen dims when you open the chat box. separating hud elements would be great

I would say its the 3rd person extension doing that as it has code that changes its behaviour when zoomed.

Big cooky if you can actually get the HUD unaffected =O

Keep it up, you're legend for making an old engine like this look great :neckbeard:
