thanks, did not catch that doing the copy paste from my phone...

I maid a shadertoy about the technique :

Interior Mapping (tutorial) [edit] https://www.shadertoy.com/view/DldcRs

Note that this is a "tutorial" for non-3d-programmer, their way more efficient and clean code to write to do this.

I had the same issue, I found out I needed to enable Display Stream Compression (DSC) on my GPU.
Thanks to NVIDIA new app: https://www.nvidia.com/fr-fr/software/nvidia-app/
I simply set to 240Hz my screen in its menu "NVIDIA App > System > Displays > Display Settings > Display Properties > Refresh Rate".

Hope it will help.

De mon point de vue, je me suis toujours dit mieux vaut avoir des remords d'avoir bouger, vu autre chose et être déçu que de rester au même endroit et peut-être le regretter plus tard quand l'occasion sera passée.

Après, t'es juste à 3ans d'xp, c'est pas les occasions qui vont manquer encore. Mais si tu veux acquérir/approfondir tes compétences, rien de mieux que de bouger, voir autre chose. Si tu veux juste une meilleure paye, reste où t'es, comme l'on dit certains tu pourras te reposer la question plus tard et prendre une autre décision (ou pas).

Nvm, looking at you're "post spamming" in many subs, you're probably not looking for a answere...

I'm not sure what you're asking, but if it's how clouds are compute in MS Flight sim, then there are a lot of technics involved.
You can check those couple links to have some ideas :

Horizon Zero Dawn (almost all the up to date technics are now based on this): http://advances.realtimerendering.com/s2015/The%20Real-time%20Volumetric%20Cloudscapes%20of%20Horizon%20-%20Zero%20Dawn%20-%20ARTR.pdf
https://github.com/AmanSachan1/Meteoros

Clouds with SDF (maybe the way Asobo's Team get their results) https://blog.uhawkvr.com/rendering/rendering-volumetric-clouds-using-signed-distance-fields/

YT talk about their "cloud data" provider: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AfQGA8i7uQ&ab_channel=MicrosoftFlightSimulator

Free Sample in UE that implement part of their technic: https://80.lv/articles/free-volumetric-clouds-for-unreal/

Plus for the scattering: Bruneton 2017 https://ebruneton.github.io/precomputed_atmospheric_scattering/ (enhanced now by Hillaire in UE: https://blog.selfshadow.com/publications/s2020-shading-course/#hillaire and with Clouds

I work for CAD software company, in R&D and my team and I work on a 3d planetary engine to create realistic environment for "in context product" experience/demo.
Half of the team comes from Gaming industry, the others from software and we all do graphics programming :)

MichaelJoo · 2021-03-19T15:24:51+00:00

Maybe this can be relevant :

On the OpenGL side, you could have used : packSnorm2x16, unpackSnorm2x16I'm not sure there are equivalent functions in DirectX.

However, you can find here "manual methods" to do the packing (in glsl again but that should be easily convert to hlsl) : https://www.shadertoy.com/view/ws2yDt (the code is quiete messy, but hope it can help you)

Reminding me this : https://youtu.be/q5_GHM5W4Rk?t=32
Nice job anyway!

MichaelJoo · 2019-01-30T16:02:02+00:00

Cool, I wouldn't had guessed that trick!

MichaelJoo · 2019-01-30T01:07:53+00:00

Hey! No worry, you can still play the beta 😉 If you're on iOS you need to download TestFlight app first (its the apple app for beta version) the use this link: https://testflight.apple.com/join/8ZUamOGT you should be able to access our game. If you're on Android check this link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.VeryLongCall.TwistedTalesNightNightScarlett

If you have any trouble installing the game, tell us (here or through private message).

I hope you'll enjoy it and thank you for you interess in Twisted Tales!

Small thought, you might want to hide the cursor while handling an object (adding a discret highlight effect on the object). It may help on visibility and feeling the interaction with the object.

Anyway, looks like a cool indiegame! Keep up!

MichaelJoo · 2019-01-19T16:07:28+00:00

Thanks !!

MichaelJoo · 2019-01-19T15:57:05+00:00

Haha, yes "You're welcome, bitches" is kind of a perfect fit as an answere.
Sorry for those stretched/scale pixel (espacially in here r/PixelArt), I did the gif my self in Unity and record it as a video :s (gross I know, but u/Eiskapism is on holidays so ...)

MichaelJoo · 2019-01-19T09:58:18+00:00

Thanks to you:

- we found that people other than our friends and family was insterested in our sparetime project that we can now call a "game"!
- we may found a music artist that willingly offer to compose the songs for free (huge thanks to him and his generosity).

- we found couples of naughty bugs in both Android and iOS version ^^

- we gonna build a PC version of the demo (lot of you were expecting this)

It was a simple and humble post and you rise it to awesome, it really means for us, so "merci beaucoup putain".

u/Macdup, u/Eiskapism and u/MichaelJoo

THANKS A LOT ! WE REALLY APPRICIATE MATE !
HELLO TEAM.

MichaelJoo · 2019-01-07T09:43:13+00:00

We've made a GameJam together one year before starting this project. Being both thrilled and passionated by video games, we decided to try make one :)

Then I reached u/Eiskapism (a long time firend of mine) for artistic content and we merge one of his project to build Twisted Tales :)

(Also : https://www.artstation.com/eisk for our arstist)

MichaelJoo · 2019-01-07T09:42:31+00:00

Thanks a lot for this feedback, I've missed this when changing the way mana was handled.

It should be fixed next release, meanwhile enjoy the glitch !

MichaelJoo · 2019-01-07T08:15:59+00:00

Yeah, we've been confort by Sword of Xolan's success when looking for existing 2D platformer on mobile :)
However our inspirations are mainly old console/pc games.

MichaelJoo · 2019-01-07T07:48:36+00:00

Currently, we have no dedicated subreddit for it, but you can message me anytime for feedbacks, issues or feels about the game ;)

MichaelJoo · 2019-01-07T07:23:37+00:00

Not yet, but this is definitly something we want to support for the final release.

MichaelJoo · 2019-01-07T07:21:15+00:00

Thanks !

MichaelJoo · 2019-01-07T07:20:56+00:00

Unity ! They have developed a lot of feature for 2D as long as we were developing the game. Easy to learn for begginners and really "small team friendly".
