I used to do that. But it had some tiny graphical bug. My memory about what exactly is hazy, sorry, but AFAIK it was something about how it didn't render walls & wreckages, and maybe other things. So later I moved to using a transparent map texture instead.jK wrote:Spring.SetGroundDraw(false)

Code: Select all
local function SkyboxAndFogVertices()
-- The skybox:
-- [...]
-- Here I draw ten huge quad as a sort of custom skybox, removed in this extract to keep it short
-- [...]
-- The fog
local u=1.5/(TextureWidth or 4096)
local v=2.5/(TextureHeight or 1024)
for y=y1,y0,(y0-y1)/100 do
gl.Color(1,1,1,((y-y0)/(y1-y0))^2)
gl.TexCoord(u,v)
gl.Vertex(x1,y,z1)
gl.TexCoord(u,v)
gl.Vertex(x1,y,z2)
gl.TexCoord(u,v)
gl.Vertex(x2,y,z2)
gl.TexCoord(u,v)
gl.Vertex(x2,y,z1)
end
gl.Color(1,1,1,1)
end
if UseSkyboxAndFog then
gl.Blending(true)
gl.BeginEnd(GL.QUADS,SkyboxAndFogVertices)
gl.Blending(false)
endIt doesn't render grounddecals in that case. Still keeping the engine drawing is no option. Cause you make the `hidden` parts of the terrain very bumpy (to make it unpassable) this makes ROAM going crazy and eats whole CPU & RAM. So better disable engine terrain drawing and use typemaps to make areas unpassable (yes, Lua can change square's groundtype).zwzsg wrote:I used to do that. But it had some tiny graphical bug.

You are killing the GPUs bandwidth (=pixelfillrate). Use the ground fog gadget included in map blueprint.zwzsg wrote:Fog is done by layering a hundred translucent quads:
No grounddecals is ok, it's even somewhat desirable since grounddecals gets stretched in ugly ways over cliff, and reveal the spikes there when they extended to the bottom. Plus possible tearing between it and my texture.jK wrote:It doesn't render grounddecals in that case.
They I fail to see of what use they would be in the context of that map.jK wrote:No? o_Ozwzsg wrote:Are they writeable?jK wrote:Use the new gl.Texture("$info") to support F2 mode etc.
I know. In fact, this very map does use Spring.SetMapSquareTerrainType extensively. The void is set as a zero speed zone. However, the units would still glady drive into it. They won't get out, but still want to go in. So I would end up with piles of units getting stuck on the border, and a tar pit isn't the effect I was looking for.jK wrote:(you make the `hidden` parts of the terrain very bumpy (to make it unpassable) this makes ROAM going crazy and eats whole CPU & RAM.

In this HexFarm map, I am using a gadget in \LuaRules\Gadgets\How do you put lua scripts inside the map?
oh, so maps can have LuaRules and LuaGaia folders just like mods do? Cool!zwzsg wrote:In this HexFarm map, I am using a gadget in \LuaRules\Gadgets\How do you put lua scripts inside the map?
This is the wrong way to do it.
The right way is to put the gadget in \LuaGaia\Gadgets\
Make sure you have the two tiny draw.lua and main.lua inside your \LuaGaia\
LuaRules is meant for modsyanom wrote:oh, so maps can have LuaRules and LuaGaia folders just like mods do? Cool!
