Finally water!

First stage of water with reflection and refraction in Glow engine. Plus HDR, Antialiasing, Color Corrections and Gamma Corrected (Linear) Rendering.

New day - new picture with house )

Playing with combination of atmospheric scattering, light
intensity, dynamic sun and time of day.

Atmospheric Scattering

Atmospheric Scattering was added (restored) today. It's dynamic and renders beautiful sunsets and dawns. Special values added to Scene properties - Time of the Day (0..24, in hours), Length of the day ( in hours ).

HDR finally done

fuuuf .. 4 months without updates.

I returned to HDR, finally cracked it. It's probably
not so very efficient now, and I will return to it later.
It uses 64bit float render targets, bloom, all standard.

Current state of editor.. several tasks to finish alpha version..

Color transformations

Color transformations as Post-Process is added into Glow engine.

Currently supported transformations are contrast, brightness, black and white, red, green, blue shifts, saturation will be added later. All transformations work in a same step, so adding, for example contrast to brightness will not slow down it in 2 times.

Transformations added as scene property, and can be accessed from script.

Adjusted brightness:


Blue and Green shifted, to create Matrix movie look

Antialiasing

Antialiasing is finally implemented in Glow engine.

It's implemented by Directionally Localized AA algorithm,implemented in The Force Unleashed 2. It's operates in image space and works as post-process, finding edges by High-Pass filter and blur it with 5x5 (and 16x16 for long edges) kernel.

Looks cool .. my images long time suffered from jaggies .. not now)

Antialiasing is off:
