Hehe, no problem After all it does say "- add more shaders (let me know what you want)" in the manual. I'm more than happy about all the suggestions and feedback you guys give me. It kinda shows me that there are some users here that do like shade-c and are interisted in new versions

So keep the demands coming

well think about it, it's more or less the biggest shader project, and considering that games need shaders to survive in the next-gen market, it'll definately be popular. One last request for the naruto shader, could you add support for dynamic lights? By the way thanks, continue your great work

The shader currently reacts to one dynamic light and is lit by 5 additional dynamic lights in a 2nd pass. I think that should be sufficent for the moment

actually that's great

Played around a bit with toonshading.
But first for something completely non toon shading i build along the way:

no shader


carpaint-/metalshader



Now for the toon stuff
I had a look at the naruto game again and tried to come as close to it as possible. I think this could be it:



And the same thing with rim lighting for those mechas out there



(I DID NOT CREATE THOSE MODELS! They were taken from 3dxtras and turbosquid)

So what do you think mpdeveloper_B, is this it? I guess with the right art you could create the same style as shown in the naruto game

[edit] hmmm...i just thought of adding some kind of normalmapping to the toonshader to get a little extra detail without loosing the toon look...let's see how this turns out...

Wow! It looks great, just a couple of questions:

- does it use a toon map like most toon shaders do, so the shine could be modified?
- what shader model does it support?
- how is the framerate in fullscreen?
- is it possible to modify how thick the outline is?

Overall you've just about got it. As a matter of fact, the mech shader is so good i'd think about a patch for PreVa

if you make the normal-mapping i'd make it optional, a second version if you will. It looks like you got the 2d pass perfect though, it definitely has potential . Both the shaders look great, there's just 1 issue. The black shadow around some parts is one, but if it uses a toon map this could be changed.

Overall they look great, and look better than most toon shaders, i just think that if you could do that one thing, it'd be perfect.

carpain/metal looks good.

it looks a little like tf2(i guess becaus of the shape of the model).

and btw, how is tf2 shader going?

The shader on the car looks awsome, what does it look like on a model with less polygons?
The toonshaders are nice as well but I am not too much a fan of that cartoon look :P But anyways if the artwork fits every style can look good

The rim-lighting looks very good (similar like AO lighting). If you combine the rim-lighting with good textures then it can create great visuals.

The cartoon shader is perfect and could fit well to some nice kids games.

The car looks like it has serious rendering problems in some areas.

how are things with shade-c going? you haven't posted an update in a while...
