@Germanunkol:
For overgrowth they simply render the object multible times and make the different instances partly translucent using jittered 1bit alpha masks.
This can become costly depending on the objects complexity but could be relativ easily implemented.
Worth a try imo. wink

If that does not help, I wonder if it is related to the "missing" vertex shader which maybe does not use shadermodel 3.0, but I guess that we would have had more problems in the past with AMD cards then.
Is your directx up to date and your graphics driver?

In pp_fxaa3.c you can also try to comment out line 45 to 47 to see if you still don´t see anything then. If you don´t, open pp_fxaa3_luma.fx and set the shadermodel to 2.0 and see if you see something then.


Yes, I have latest DirectX and AMD drivers. I've tried all the solutions but none of them worked, still a black screen. If it helps, I get also a black screen when I run Wavefield Demo from Hummel

So even after this it was black? o.O
Did you ever successfully use any postprocessing effect? -.-

Combining all of them works at the beginning but I don't appreciate the antialiasing, and when I press f the engine freezes. I've used successfully all default GS post-processing shaders and also your PP effects from Shaders! V2, so all of what I've tried except Wavefield demo and this one.

painkiller: What happends with the above steps, but with keeping the shader model at 3.0?

Today I fixed a couple of bugs in my shader framework and made it reuse already loaded shaders.
I also started writing a general shader for most basic stuff like shading, outline, normalmapping, per vertex shading, ... The very first version however just features some basic dissolve effect and gpu bone animation wink.

You can download the latest stuff here.

@Slin, if I do that the screen is black from the beginning and it keeps like frozen: pressing f or esc hasn't any effect and I have to close it manually clicking on the X

I am on vacation starting now, nevertheless thanks for the fxaa source code and basic dissolve effect.
For now, all the shader worked very well on my pc (CPU Intel, GPU Nvidia).
When I come back, I will check more carefully next time.

Thanks again Slin laugh
