Okay

(Are you having a MATERIAL with RELOAD flag, or do you recreate the shader each time that the user changes something?)

Very nice! Perhaps a way to load functions from another .fx file and express them as a node would be good? This way people can make and share their own nodes so that those who are petrified of shader code can just drag in more complex things like the worldViewProj transform (even though it's just a multiply, a lot of people are scared of matrices) and building the tangent-space matrix.

A shader editor ? Will it be "noob-proof" ?


I decided to grab some money from my insurance and started to burn down my hotel ^^

@rayp - I'm impressed man, that looks SICK!

Thank you. U can blow out the fire by activating a pump system first then the water-spenklers. Maybe i make a vid these days. Fire-Blow-Out effect took me some days. Its one of the map quests to get behind the fires.

Edit: By the way your doom levels look really good, ive seen some shots already. KEEP THIS UP PLEASE.

@Rei_Ayanami: (Are you having a MATERIAL with RELOAD flag, or do you recreate the shader each time that the user changes something?)
At the moment, the shader previews on the nodes are recreated every time you change something in the previous or the node itself. Atm, The final shader is recreated every time a button is pressed (for example the c-key). Then a new effect is created and assigned by effect_load. So no reload flag...

JibbSmart: ty, yes this would make sense(it is also implemented in the source shader editor). It will not be that difficult to implement such a node. However I need to create a lot of other nodes too (dirty job -.-), like texture samplers, swizzle and append nodes, etc. etc.

Dude your helmet totally doesn't fit your shirt. You look like a tool.

[Shows graphic generation! The player's sprite is updated depending on what equipment he uses. Works by overlaying three bitmaps in different ways to achieve the most flexible results]

@rayp trust me, we will finish Doom. After all, I need something to put in my portfolio. lol

@ryap, dude, that looks great indeed. I'd really like to see some gameplay footage.

@Error104 :
That rocks
Have you some demo perhaps ?
I would like a lot to play that retro game, and it looks retro gorgeous
