Twilight Box

New graphics demo inspired by Superku´s 2d shadowing technique. Originaly planed as a small side project this took me about a week longer to finish than expected. But it was worth the effort I think. laugh
The demo is designed to run under shader model 2.0 (or higher) without the need for multible render targets or floating point render targets. There are still a few things missing I planed to implement in the beginning,
even some fundamental features like loading/saving a scene but I had to stop at some point. I´ll probably make a more complete version sometime.

Key features:
- soft shadows
- self-shadowing (was trickier than one might expect)
- ambient occlusion

You can/have to create occluders on your own and move the light around (duhh tongue ).
There is a new video on my Youtube Channel which shows how to organize the occluders the way that you prevent light-bleeding artifacts which can occur due to the approximation nature of the whole shadow rendering.

- inspiration for making this demo by Superku

And here is the download link to the demo: Twilight Box
Have fun!
