Pretty sure I haven't posted this one yet.

This was my old (2005) Killbots ai framework.
The robots only had 2d control. I left it running for a while, when I came back I found them cheating like this. They could see and shoot over walls.
No, not some out of control skynet thing. I was using PhysX for the physics, each 2m tall robot used a 1m diameter sphere as it's body. It was like hamster balls rolling around. Sounds odd, but it made the movement work really well. The problem was that if two spheres pushed against each other long enough, one would pop upwards and they'd stack. I told all 4 robots to have the same 2D destination, so they kept pushing until they formed a stack. I had to clamp them to Y=0 to stop it.

Since we've had a few people recently mistake Tomb Raider / XNALara meshes for Ogre meshes, here's the result of a quick importer to load them into Ogre. Currently not supporting materials or rigging (but it's also 6am and I haven't gotten to bed yet).
Maybe I should write an actual stand alone converter (current one is just a loader within an ogre app).

I started doing exactly that.

Materials, meshes and skeletons are generated. The skeleton has issues (it crashes ogremeshy if I try to display names, and the bones are in the wrong spot) but otherwise seems to be working.
But it turns out the model I chose to test with is from the old format.
XNALara was an open source program. It's file format is pretty simple and documented (plus the source code is there).
It was taken over by another developer who closed it off and modified the file format, but wants the format to stay proprietary so won't release details on it. That's the new XPS program. It seems most of the models on the net are now in the XPS format.

I don't really feel like reverse engineering the format right now, so I'll quit the project for the time being.
(I'm not that interested in reverse engineering characters, I prefer environments and terrain)

Here's what the buffer questions have been about:

Image

That's my progress on making an OGRE backend for nanoVG, a 2D HTML5 canvas-inspired vector library as an alternative to Gorilla/OGRE Overlays.

I'm stopping work on that for now, I got to texture loading (done), I'm just not sure how to actually show multiple images/textures without creating a separate material for each one, thus blowing up the batch count, I could use a shader, but then I'd need some really clever UV trickery.

Also there's still some artifacting with vertex buffers, and apparently a stencil buffer mask is needed for that, and in the time I spent searching I didn't find a good example.

I'm actually pretty satisfied with my progress for just a few days. :lol:

That's great ! Maybe if this becomes mature enough it could be an idea to integrate it into gorilla, so that we keep with only one mature solution for 2D drawing on top of Ogre ? Do you think of releasing it ?
I think from seeing your screenshot that Gorilla functionality would remain necessary for both images (textureatlas) and text, right ?

Edit: Actually, I guess it could be possible to reuse Gorilla textureatlas to keep the material count to one (or a few)

The APIs are really different it'd need to be wrapped within Gorilla if that's to happen, it's not a bad idea though. I'll release the source later today.

OK ever since Kojack posted that Utah Saints vid I've had that stuck in my head ... so I put a tribute level into my game (and it helps test a few things) :lol:

That's the freshest move I've ever seen, like he was floating on air.

Thanks, sitting here waiting to teach a network programming class is a little more bearable now. :)

Cool.
Although, LOOK OUT! THAT HELICOPTER HAS NO PILOT! :)


With all the talk of OpenMW lately, I spent a few hours writing a Morrowind terrain renderer. I did it once before, maybe around 2006, but I don't have that code any more.
Not hard when I can remember that the terrain is 65x65 blocks of 8 bit signed height offsets from the previous vertex and a base float height for the block. Plus alternating triangulation order for each 2x2 vertex segment.

Normals seem occasionally wrong along some land block edges, which is odd, I can't remember if the data was like that previously (the normals are stored in the data in a 24 bit integer form, not calculated by me).

I should get around to reversing Oblivion and Skyrim one day, to see how they compare.

Yesterday I finally finished my implementation of ambient occlusion...

Image
I think it turned out pretty good :3

Everything is calculated in screen-space, I tried being physically correct :D
Btw: the lightning is calculated per sample, using this cube map: http://www.humus.name/index.php?page=Textures&ID=123
so basically it's both AO and environment lighting. At the moment it doesn't perform that well, but hopefully there's plenty room for improvement :D

Normalmapped impostors for JohnJ's PagedGeometry. Real trees are only in the center of the first picture and in the very left of the last picture.

Impostors. You can add any MovableObject to be handled by an ImpostorManager, and it will automatically switch between the impostor and the real thing, and keep the impostor image updated.
