Thanks!

Hmm I mean, I did climb to top 200 with it so it can't be THAT bad. Probs just not for everyone. Frustrating into certain decks - wizards, rw energy if you don't get good luck on mills.

@@snznz Well, Idk what luck is. But after 20 games i did't find a single Omniscience.

Hmm the main issue is that at large scales the raytrace sphere logic creates jagged steps/artifacts in the mesh itself at close viewing distances, so while you are right that I could work around the problems when you get far away, the main issue is the offset precision issues up close. It is an interesting technique though. If i could get a double precision ray sphere intersect within a material it might work, but I haven't seen a good way to do it. Other option could be a compute shader but I'd have to look into it.

It's all ai gen shlock, I just told chatgpt to make lyrics for different planeswalkers and fed it to suno ai

So we are making use of Priest of Titania, so we actually care about our elf tribal-ness, which is why I opted to drop the halfling to fit more elf dorks

IKR its nuts

Yea, if I was going to do it again I'd probably use some form of raymarching

Was messing around with different ways to integrate the depth into the wave calculations. Turns out if you base you wavelength on a fraction of the sphere radius, and you lerp that a very small amount with the vertex depth, you end up with this. So something like: wavelength = lerp(radius, depth + 100, .1) * scale. Still trial and erroring other ways to integrate depth into the waves.

@@snznz Interesting

maby ur right maby i dont now wath it means

Yea IKR too much to do too little time!

It's generated at spawn time currently. It is possible to write functions that would modify it at run time, but to get true voxel style editing you would probably want to convert the lowest level chunks into a voxel format using something like dual contouring. It's something I'm interested in doing but probably won't get to for a long time.

Thanks dude much appreciated 👍

Nope, I am using scene depth - scene depth without water nodes

@@snznz you might get better directional controls without the depth issues as a bonus if your terrain generates distance fields.

Yea, I haven't been able to do it in a way that is performant enough at this point, but I may look into it more eventually.

@@snznz if only there was a way to precompute the DF and then mask it out over distance.

Ended up calculating the depth at mesh construction and encoding it in the vertex color channels, seems to work well

hey im have problem how to fix im have everyting what in need but still dont working [SM5] /Engine/Private/PostProcessMaterialShaders.intermediate.usf(421,9-16): error X3511: forced to unroll loop, but unrolling failed. [SM5] /Engine/Private/PostProcessMaterialShaders.intermediate.usf(489,21-85): error X3511: unable to unroll loop, loop does not appear to terminate in a timely manner (477 iterations) or unrolled loop is too large, use the [unroll(n)] attribute to force an exact higher number [SM5] /Engine/Private/PostProcessMaterialShaders.intermediate.usf(492,39-124): warning X3570: gradient instruction used in a loop with varying iteration, attempting to unroll the loop

Yea hard to say, I'd double check that all the variables are named correctly and have values around what is in the video

Yep

@@snznz ty, do you have a link from where you started the atmosphere? If not I can find it myself ty

@@JesfNwje Not sure what you mean, the custom node code is linked in the description and the video is a guide on how to set it up

@@snznz oh ty

Sure, I'll take a look! My videos here are a bit behind the stream, I have fbm sphere Gertsner waves working now but haven't done any work on making the shader actually look like water yet... Also been having a difficult time getting distance fields to generate properly for the mesh planet which has been a blocker for things like shoreline foam.

​ @snznz distance field mask is very imprecise at high distances, you can use Depth Behind Water node to create a proper mask (available in Single Layer Water shading model), but that's only pixel shader (you cannot fade off waves based on it). There's DC on the marketplace page, if you join I can show you the mask. My comment keeps being removed by RUclips for some reason

Thanks dude that's actually really helpful info, since even if I could get it working, its expensive to build the distance field during mesh gen... I'll check out your discord when I get a chance. I did try just using SLW shader to see if I could just throw it on as is, but it has weird Z axis issues when I wrap it around a sphere.

Yea his video is very good but did not go into LOD so it really only works for "toy" sized planets where you can get enough detail. I can do an updated planet generation video at some point, but... It is not a simple process and you will need a couple plugins, I use the Realtimemesh plugin to handle mesh generation, so you would want to get familar with generating mesh with it. You may want to start with just 1 flat quadtree. If you can generate 1 flat quadtree, the planet is just 6 quadtrees composing a cube with their points normalized.. Each node should generate its mesh data off the game thread, then submit a delegate to a queue that is processed on the gamethread to generate its actual mesh component. I have a code review video of my initial implementation here ruclips.net/video/E8a1WddwQXs/видео.htmlsi=0LNAW62TbYjG4UN- but it has changed somewhat.

I just do it for fun. One day Ill finish putting it together into a game. As for the channel, it is pretty much just a stream dump in case I ever want to have the raw footage to edit together. Although I do occasionally put together more targeted videos when I finish something I think is worth one.

@@snznz Thanks for the reply. Any interest in doing paid/contract work?

Potentially, it's tough to break into game dev without a professional background in it

Not sure as I haven't done much research on it but I'm sure I'll come up with something

@@snznz keep me posted

Thanks, dude. It's on the radar

Appreciate it dude!

I use fast noise 2 library for my noise formula and RealtimeMeshPlugin to render the chunks, the rest is a massive amount of grinding my face on C++ code to get it working correctly.

I am building a procedural universe generator with no loading screens/instanced areas. Sort of like a stylized space engine.The planet generation tech is part of it.

@@snznz impressive, good work 👍

Creating a volumetric procedural cloud layer for spherical planets

@@snznz what did you study, are you phd hder or sth like that

I have a BS in computer science and I've been a software dev for a long time, but all my game dev stuff is self taught

Maybe, at the time I was only trying to get something that looks good from space so I never bothered. IIRC there was always a trade off. For example you could make it a masked effect with dithered transparency, and then you should be able to get accurate shadows... but you trade off having dithering translucently. Could try playing with the material settings, trying different translucency types, turning off/on raytraced shadows etc. Alternatively, I am currently working on a volumetric raymarched cloud shader which should be dramatically superior to the shader here (can fly through clouds, they are volumetric). That one also has no surface shadows yet, but I will eventually integrate it into my atmosphere shader and try to figure out how to get the cloud shadows integrated into the atmosphere surface lighting. Whenever I have the basic effect done I will probably put out a summary video, then again whenever I figure out shadows for it.

Thanks dude!

Thanks! Next up clouds and oceans, then foliage.

WOOOOOooooo!!!!!

Thanks my dude

I use the Realtimemesh plugin to render the mesh and I'm generating the mesh data into its expected format. Each quadtree node is responsible for the render state of its chunk. You can find the Realtimemesh GitHub here github.com/TriAxis-Games/RealtimeMeshComponent

It's all a part of the converted HLSL function. The original GLSL shadertoy function is here: www.shadertoy.com/view/wlBXWK. I followed the GLSL to HLSL workflow described in the video to convert it for use in Unreal. So basically -> convert syntax, replace hard coded camera/light stuff with unreal equivalents, make all functions standalone (no global constants), update function calls to new signatures, wrap functions in a struct, create struct instance and invoke main image function. Finally, Create wrapping material, add all needed constants/inputs to material, add all needed inputs to custom function, hook everything up.

@@snznz i understand, but fog needs scene depth data, and to disable depth testing in the material, did you do any of these in the material graph ?

​​​​@@idirbelaid2837 Yes, As one of the inputs to the custom function we have to pass in maximum depth, I calculate this as distance(world position, camera position), this seemed to work better than trying to use the non linear depth buffer at the kind of scale we are talking about. This is then used in the multi sampling logic as the maximum ray depth. There is no need to disable depth testing in this because it is a post process effect, so it is basically being rendered on top of the existing scene. However, this does mean we can't use default post process effects like lens flare and bloom. I got around this by implementing a custom post process lens flare effect. Should have some videos on that part out soon.

Hmm maybe I can do an overview soon. TLDR is, take skyfury and the hard cast only pvp talent, drop the instant lava burst on earth shock most people run and take storekeeper and lightning rod. Then gear crit>versa to 30>mastery>haste

Yea, you can. Basically each mode will give you some amount of conquest for a win. After the first win it goes down to a smaller amount. So just doing 1 win a day in each mode will get you geared after a bit. There is also always solo shuffle and battleground blitz, which both reward larger amounts than the normal random bgs.

@@snznz Sounds good. Thank you for replying! Keep pwning:)

Thanks bro

Nice, you should go for it! I have a video from a bit back that runs through the c++ side of it in more detail. ruclips.net/video/E8a1WddwQXs/видео.html Also made some breakthroughs on temperature maps this week which should get uploaded sometime in the next month or so

Thanks dude!

Thanks, it's a WIP but it's starting to come together

Eventually I'll be hooking everything up with the sparse voxel octree stuff I wrote a while back and try to make a universe sim, beyond that not sure

@@snznz Good luck man

Thank you 🙌
