Spring RTS Engine

but it looks nice on tabula... and i tested on a lot of other maps

A secret project that i and some other fellows are working on.
The model is not mine, I wont tell alot not authorized for it

*groans* mostly spring grass, flat shaded humvee with missile pod goofy shit about authorization to tell sekret.

At least have shadows on or post something visually interesting :/

you missed the point.

so....

a) that humve is very small, or....
b) u are making 'Avatar' game (with huge trees etc)
c) we dont rly see anything except paper grass.

Oh look a unit

oh look a feature thing.

These shots entice us and show us something. your shot is primarily grass, are you working on the spring grass? Is that your random wip? you have some obscured units, that's nice we cannot see them to discuss. Oh it is something SEKRET that you cannot discuss what part if any is your work that is displayed? what is the goal of the shot? to show something SEKRET, that's nice but why do we care? I am just not sure what you want us to ooh ahh over.

I really like you knorke cause you keep using my shitty maps in your videos ^^

That looks neat, Karl. I'm curious as to what it's going to be like.

So guess what.
I had 4 whole hours of free time today.

HUZZAH!

So apparently ZK needs new superweapons.

How's this look?


Unfinished, of course.

How's this look?

A toilet with a... thrust lever?

vrmmm vrrmmmm!
Without texture it is hard to tell how it is going to work. Is it a missile silo?
The big box could maybe be broken up a bit.

either it's a missile silo, or it's some kind of electromagnetic cannon. I need someone to decide for me before I do something with the square

There already is a missile silo (with emp even) so...mind controll device!
Or teleporter like the chronosphere in C&C.

Having your cake and eating it too:

ROAM with LOS map plugged into the SSMF shader.

LOS is represented by saturation, and radar coverage is represented by static noise. So areas that dont have radar coverage look like they have bad TV reception. Also, LOS areas dont get static noise, only areas without LOS or under jammer cover. Shadows rendered as well ofc.

Static noise not apparent on screenshot, looks nice and subtle ingame though.

Marry me Behe!

hell, it was about time spring got los!

Thanks goes to Kloot, for shaderifying the entire map rendering pipeline, and jK for the static noise thing method I lifted from his fog shader.

What do you think about using desaturation for representing areas not under LOS?

On some maps it might not be obvious enough, if the ground is already brown or grey anyway. Maybe also darken a bit.

Credits should go to JeGX

I imagine it to be great except for CCR. So +1 for decreasing intensity too.
I am curious how the radar noise stuff looks like ingame.
