jPCT-AE - a 3d engine for Android > Projects

Next jPCT-AE version...

(1/1)

EgonOlsen:
Because my game Naroth is more or less done by now, my next project is simply the next version of jPCT-AE. I'm working on one feature in particular that I always postponed...porting the ShadowHelper stuff from jPCT to jPCT-AE to add easy to use shadow support to jPCT-AE. I have something working already:

 

It still misses some stuff that I would like to add and it does really strange things to the shaders to inject shadow support into an arbitrary shader, but it seems to work...somehow...

Thomas.:
It is good news! Will be supported also soft shadows?

EgonOlsen:
That's the plan (basic PCF), but I guess it would be pretty slow if you activate them.

EgonOlsen:
PCF is basically in...rendering into a 128*128 shadowmap without PCF



...and with PCF (with a simple 3x3 filter kernel)



The performance hit on the Nexus 5X is not noticable (60fps before, 60fps now), but the Note 1 takes a punch into the stomach (half the fps, i.e. from 40 down to 20).
