Hi, I have a VERY early implementation of the shadow mapping system. If you would like to see a small demo, please email me at:
Mauerbach@comcast.net

the demo features a simple room with 2 omni-directional lights casting shadows. I made a simple interface so that you can switch between Shadow Mapping, Variance Shadow Mapping, Stencil Shadow Mapping, and no shadows. You can also set the level of shadow bluring and even between 3 algorithems of shadow bluring! You move with asdw and the mouse, move the lights with ijkl and can change the colors and attenuations in real time.

NOTE!!!!
you should only use this demo if you have a GeForce 8/9 series NVidia card or the equivelent ATI card. Your graphics card must support RGBA32 bit texture formats. I might make a compressed texture version later, but I figured most people have cards with these shader caps.

Here are 2 shots from a simple test level I made. Sorry for the link formats, I don't have much time to figure out how to link pictures properly. Off to work - Mike

[EDITED] Fixed the img links.

Looks cool!

It's always nice to see people working on dynamic shadowmapping.

why not uplading demo here? if you look from contrubition side,...

i mean this thread is more suitable for projects page.

Anyway it looks ver cool, ill email you to see that demo.

Hey,
I JUST finished the demo (2:40 ET).
Unfortunatley, the demo is ~24 mb and my email accounts won't let me send an attachment that big. I will either reduce the size or make a quick solution.

edit:

I am now uploading it to rapidshare.com

I'll send you back emails and upload the link in a minute.

Next time please set mipmaps for the textures andmake it not THAT dark.
Also please have future techdemos starting in a window or at least not with such a low resolution.

Other then that, I have to say that you did a nice job on this The shadowresolution is a little too little for my taste and your vsm is somehow not as soft as I remember it to be from my own experiences.
It would be great if you could share some information on what technique you are using to realize those pointlights. Are you using cubemaps or something different?
And I currently don´t see why this is a contribution, but anyways, nice work so far

thanks,
sorry about the resolution. All the code is set up for my computer (1440x900). I completley forgot to make it adjustable!

Looks pretty good so far. Why not making a bigger demo-scene...maybe even an outdoor level?? This would give better references about speed and other issues that are hard to avoid.

Keep up the work!

I'm gonna download this when I'm off work. Thanks man, looking forward to the finished source!

EDIT: The file can only be downloaded 10 times. It reached its limit before I could get to it! Bummer...
