  • RE: One time long fade?

    I guess you could use the shader toolkit. There is a function called ShaderLightness which adjusts the screens lightness.https://wiki.visionaire-tracker.net/wiki/ShaderLightness_(CMS)If you would start really dark and then change to normal brightness you could get a transition as long as you would want.I don't know how dark the screen will get (because I haven't tried it yet), but it is worth a try.

  • RE: Designing my 2D First Person Game!

    someone did a 360 with AGS and a cubic version, I think they offset two images for a looping 360 but I'm not really sureIn Visual Studio you can use a tab control and use it like pages, you can get rid of the tabs to do a Myst style side showIf we had more control of the 3D we coulld use a cube or sphere with a shader so the shading is constant, then hidden primative shapes for hotspotsThere's verious versions of the Dagon engine which can do panos out of the box, I think he intends to release the Unreal version as a blueprint which is powering Asylum.. if it ever gets finished!

  • RE: Displaying Character Name along with Dialog

    No worries. Check out the online Lua docs that Simon has been working on. He has posted links to other websites/blogs with useful information in regards to learning the basics of Lua script. I highly recommend checking out the [url=http://www.phailed.me/2011/02/learn-lua-the-hard-way-1/]phailed.me[/url] blog as it's written in a way that pretty much everyone can understand.Quick note: scripting in visionaire is a combination of 3 different things.Lua script - this is a language used by various different applications, game engines & websites. It's fairly easy language to learn & there are lots of different websites & blogs out there with syntax examples & tutorials.VisObj (visionaire objects) - these are essentially tables that contain various data for your game & the game engine. You can query or modify most of these during runtime inside of any custom scripts you create. All of the VisObj can be found on the data structure page of the wiki.GLSL (openGL shader language) - I think this is basically C (Simon?). It's a lot more complicated than Lua script, but for those that know any of the C languages such as C++ or C#, they should probably be able to learn how to write custom shaders with it to provide various different lighting & screen warp effects & so on to apply to their games.Also, you should check out the "script index" page on the wiki. I have provided various script examples of my own & other peoples. Most come with resource files & tutorials. Reverse engineering is always a great way for learning things. ;)

  • RE: Shadows?

    Is there an easy way to establish shadows with the shader toolkit? :-)constantinNot with 2D games. Though I have seen someone create a module for Löve2D Lua game engine that can generate basic shadows from 2D objects, but you are probably better off drawing them in yourself as generated shadows will never look very good in a 2D or 2.5D game compared to 3D games as there's not much in the way of light refraction when it comes to 2D backgrounds (in other words there's nothing to bend the light which causes shadows to skew, shrink, warp or display on multiple surfaces). Projected shadows in 2D games appear to float which looks (in my opinion) utterly shite.

  • RE: Question about normalmaps

    I guess his plan is to use some kind of light sources (maybe shader lamps) to affect the displayed scene objects/characters. But im not sure if this is easy to implement a combination of those two separate things right now at all.

  • RE: Visionaire Studio 5 Tutorials - German + English(from EP. 20)

    Nur kein Stress. :p Tatsächlich muss man den Shader ja nicht verstehen, um einzelne Funktionen abzurufen. Da hab selbst ich nun den Zoom zum Laufen gebracht, nachdem ich mich erstmal rangetraut habe. Ein paar mehr Details zu den einzelnen Funktonen wär zwar nett, aber vielleicht wird da die Dokumentation noch ausgebaut.Aber falls du noch Themen für die Tutorials suchen solltest und dich mit dem Partikelsystem auskennst - da wäre ich auch für ein paar erklärende Worte dankbar. So einiges erschließt sich mir da nicht...

  • RE: Visionaire Studio 5 Tutorials - German + English(from EP. 20)

    Ich schätze, eigene Shader bauen geht mir völlig über die Hutschnur! :-) Ich habe es grade mal geschafft, mir mit der to() funktion ein Sliding-Interface zu basteln. D.h. auf deine Lua-Tutorials freue ich mich auch schon!Ich meinte schon mit dem vorhandenen Shadertoolkit. Da suche ich gerade nach Beispielen für den Zoom und wurde noch nicht so fündig. Wenn ich deinen Thread mal kurz für eine Fragestunde zum Shadertoolkit misbrauchen darf:Was ist der Unterschied zwischen shaderZoom und shaderViewport?Welche Werte setze ich beim shaderViewport ein? Meine Vermutung: shaderViewport(Zoomlevel, x, y, Rotation?, Dauer, Easing) ?Edit: oh, wer lesen kann... In den Anmerkungen des Shaderscripts stehen die Erklärungen ja drin!

  • Exclude shader effects for specific interface

    i know that i can exclude shader effects for mouse cursors and interfaces. in my game i would like to exclude only a specific interface (the inventory), but not another secondary interface (which is a smartphone). is this somehow possible? thanks in advance :-)constantin
