I'm using A7.07, and I've been experimenting with post-processing FX with camera.stage. The thing is, whenever I run the level, the PP effect shows up fine, but the rendering of objects (the culling, I think) is all backwards. Models that should show up in front of another show up behind, and even separate meshes of the same model are on top of each other.



This also occurs when the pp_view's material is set to NULL. And I've already tried setting CULL_CW as a flag; it doesn't work.

The level is running @ 1024x768 (ImageShack resized my image), on an nVidia GeForce 7300 GT 512MB VRAM. DirectX 9.0c and Windows XP SP1 (stupid Microsoft won't let me activate my Windows, and because of that, I can't get SP2. I have 12 days and counting).

Could it be the fact that I'm using SP1?

Antialiasing and postprocessing doesn´t yet work together. If you use antialiasing deactivate it and it should work. At least for me it caused such problems.

Yep, the d3d_antialias was the problem. Thanks for the tip.

I've had the exact same issue only without a postprocessing shader. I have a secondary view with its bmap property set to a TGA image file. The image is then displayed in a panel. (Sort of like the rearview mirror concept.) The same problem you're reporting occurs in the secondary view even though it doesn't occur for the camera view. Also, the problem only seems to occur on NVIDIA cards. I haven't seen it on any of the ATI cards I've tested on. As MrCode suggested, the problem goes away if I turn off antialiasing. Hopefully some of this info might help Conitec to pinpoint the root cause. Or does Conitec already know what's causing this problem or when it might get fixed? (Or if there's a better work-around than removing AA?)

MrCode just call that free number on activation failure and your Windows will get activated again by one of those people at the callcentre. Better would be to purchase a new Windows XP installation cd already containing SP2. I did so at my computershop for €5.- showing the original jewelcase with product key.

This is much easier than having to download and install the whole SP2 as update over a existing Windows XP SP1 installation.

I've already taken care of the Windows issue now, I guess I just hadn't taken the time to post it. It's got SP2 on it. I'm up and running the way I was before again, yay!
