Water Editor[WIP]

Hello friends,
i am working on water editor.
i want to show you.


Here is video;


Good day...

now THAT is awesome!

(but i could go without the music )

That is awesome indeed.

nice work mate.

this is exactly what i need for my game. This is awesome.
Do you have plans to release this?

my face when i saw that video:



awesome work.

Great work!
Do you plan anything about seafoam/coastlines and that stuff?

This is beautiful! I'm sure a lot of people will benefit from this!

I know it's a WIP but, if you want some criticism, I'm not a huge fan of the sun reflection. looks a little big. Take a look: google search

Holy shit When are you going to publish your editor?

Hey, thanks for all nice comments

Sure.

Yes, i am working for costlines, similar isle demo;


Thanks DiegoFloor.

i don't know. i need a some time.

Awesome work!

OMG! Awesome work as usual Emre!

WOW that exactly what i need for my project but i have 1 question
Dose it go with the a7 extra edition or only with com?

since it uses shaders, it needs at least comm i guess.

nice work there Good luck!

Hello again,
New video(This is about shorline);

amazing.. and so easy.. can´t wait for this >.<

question: any function to extract the created water as lite-c code?

truly awesome. as already mentioned, the sun reflections seem a bit too strong. night\foggy preset on the first video is AAA looking

i smell /b/.

@Emre: Looks nice mate

that is a baaaadddd smell.

i didn't made anything about it yet. I'm concentrated at water currently. But it's not hard. But, i am not yet decided if i am going to make the editor internal or external. Maybe instead of making a standalone editor, i can make it like, include it to your project and run/tune it internally.

sounds good..

rule 1 & 2.

anyhow....



freakin awesome editor. keep the updates coming

Merhaba Emre,
just stumbled across this thread.

Very impressive ... looking forward to seeing and hearing more about your plans with this !

Cheers,
Andreas

What I don't like about the videos yet is that the waves are SO huge.
Why not try to make them a little more realistic?

Also, I noticed that the shorelines are all either white or not at the same time, as if the waves arrive at the shores at the same time on all places. I have absolutely no idea how you achieve these great effects, but that may be something you can look into...? they should look repetitive, but more random... if that's not a contradiction.

I thought of this tool when I ran across the crytek engine the other day. you should check this out:

It may help you, I don't know.. as a reference.
Very nice work, keep it up!

its a tango flamenco rythm!!

Impressive work so far! The shores look really nice alright (and are easy to create as we could see ). Like already mentioned, it would be great if it would be possible to export the done work

Just curious, do you had programmed the water shader by yourself or do you use an existing one? If you use an exisiting, could you tell us, which shader you're using?

Thanks & Regards
TSGames

@Andreas; Sa&#287;ol


i am still working about "vertex wave animation."
i have two animations. You can use which one you want to use.
i don't know, what can i do more about shorelines .
But i am still working about all of them. i am trying what can i do.
Don't worry...
Thanks for suggestions.
(i am waiting more of them.)


i have been working about this shader since 7 months.
i am not a shader programmer and my english so bad.
i learned to writing shader, with "trial and error."
it's to much hard for me to write my own shader.
instead of this, i am combining and arranging many useful shaders.
i prepared the water what you saw in this video, with combining 6 shader.
//////////////////////////////////////
And new video;

Awesome improvements

one question. when can i buy

i don't think to sell. it will be free.
Now it's completed %50.
i really don't know, when i will complete.
Because i am still improving the water.
i don't say when it's completed.
But i will share to you developments, with videos.
//
And new video;(this is about wave animations)

getting better!

... you're my new god now.

Wow. I must say this looks impressive. Keep up the good work!

Yea that is looking better and better

I never get tired of looking at animated water.
Yours is very nice already and your editor looks like a great way of finding the right waves for every situation.
Great work!

second that. especially since you removed the music this time
amazing work!

It looks very cool
Would you mind telling us your waters polygon number?
If you don´t yet use something like that you should check out the projected grid technique.

awesome work! can't wait to try this

Hello again and thanks for all nice comment

in the fourth videos, there are to much polygons.

Thanks for your advice. But i can't use this technique.
Because;


i tried this and the result is...

terrible

its still amazing Emre. i hope you make it A6 compatable as well, this is an incredible system.

Thanks you Blink, i will try to make it.

And dear friends, you can download HERE for testing.
But it's not completed. i am still working for it.
IMPORTANT:it need pixelshader 2_x

Good day...

Hey - works nicely, but I seem to have too small a window - some of the sliders are off the bottom of the screen. Is there a fix for this?

Don
have a great day

as it's not complete, but looks very nice, and those waves..beautiful

Weird. I can't see anything:


My PC specs are:
Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT
Shader 1.0 and 2.0 and 3.0 and 4.0 support
WinVista SP1
Core 2 Duo 2.53Ghz

You need to load a setting. There are seven in the folder. After that you can change values.

I'm mostly below 30 frames per second, but the water looks and moves great.

Looking forward to where you're taking this.

Yeah. Works fine now. Nice water!!

Question: Can i use these textures in a commercial game?

if you see small window and if you have any panel's problem, probably your desktop resolution is 1024x768. Use 1152x864 or ++.

Some textures is not my. But you can use theme in a commercial game . All free.

Edit:
And this is not just a water shader. This is a editor. Try the tuning and create your own nice water.

Wow... really great. How long you were working on this?

i have been working about this shader since 7 months.But the editor, just 3 weeks.


My graphic card is Ati HD3850. i see 65 fps on my pc.But now i use another pc(HD3600) and you are right. i found, why fps is 30. This is about of "ShoreTile.xy"

ShoreTile==10 FPS 66

ShoreTile==100 FPS 32

i will fix it

works great here. very well done.
the only 3 things I'd criticise:
-it's too easy to create weird effects, when sliding the sliders around a lot. but with a bit of playing and experimenting, it's fine.
-i'd like to enter values instead of the sliders. sometimes it's hard to get a value between 1 and 10 when the slider goes from 1 to 500.
-the tiling is a little obvious when you try to get very small waves... but I guess higher res-textures should get rid of that effect.


nice work!

The water and waves look great! I don't think there has been to many water shaders around here that generate waves as well.

little question:

I downloaded the editor.. but seems like i´m to stupid to control it..
Any chance for a manual?

Awe-some View!

I'm a noob in shaders, and something like this is always fascinating for me. =)

It's really simple. Load a setting (!) and then change the values. The camera control is the usual one I think.

@Emre: I was wondering how an object like a boat or floating wood would have to be positioned that I looks realistic.
Basically, how can I find the hight of the waves at a specific point?
After that I guess that getting multiple points along the object and the adjusting the angle to the wave form would have to work...

@Esper: The only manual that i have prepared in this video
i can't do any manual for the tuning settings.Because my english is not enough and i have no time for this yet.i am so sorry for this.

@Hitsch: This is a shader vertex animation. This is not a Lite-c(engine) animation.
i don't know how to you find vertex position for an object like a boat or floating wood.

Have a nice day...
