wow that looks cool!!

@ventilator: if you look at the code you will see that you can comment out some of the passes such as anywhere from p4-p12 to p13 which are just pixel shaders(very repetative ones I might add). This will make the effect less furry however, but should help speed. I'm sure you should be able to use a count or something instead of 13 identical passes with the only difference being the shader number =/. I just got a headache thinking about that one...

PS getting ready to test out the hatching shader .

the bad performance gets caused by the overdraw. i use 12 shells and when the camera gets very near and the entity fills the entire screen it stresses the pixel fill rate so much that the fps go down to 20 on my gf4. if the entity is in some distance the performance is ok.

...
i didn't post it because i lost it before i did the last refinements...

argh i cant get the hatching shader to work yet. I keep getting syntax errors in the material. BTW for the hatching shader shouldnt it be possible to use 3 textures instead of 6 with some conversion? Well looking over shaders for errors is giving me a headache so I'm taking a break.

@ventilator: If you would like to see my conversion maybe you could fix it. Just let me know and I can E-Mail you it.

i added my fur shader version to my wiki... i hope it works because i made some last minute changes without testing it!

wow, now after i applied this onto a model which has transparent and brightflare and a u/v shifting. this is abolute powerfull. u can use it for suns corona, or absolute amazing fire effects. and even fake some nice water caustics with it.

ventilator-
I added the code, strange...my A6 crashes out at the beginning of startup...then just closes and goes nowhere...
The standard white box...
only hapens when I have the fur code...I have a radeon 9600 , do I know its compatible...anyone else get this?

it should work. maybe i made a typo somewhere on the wiki. does it work for anybody else?

Works fine with ATI 9000 Pro, ATI 9800 Pro and ATI Fire Fire GL 9800.

Seems a bit slow on the 9000, but the others like it just fine.

a problem (besides the performance on older cards) is that there is no way to assign materials to infividual parts of a model. the furry characters running around in my levels look a bit strange with fur on the face and everywhere else!

it does work on individual body parts
