hi, i was just playing around a little with the lens object and managed to create an interesting car reflection effect.
The fps stays at 50 for me, so its seems usable. However, i dunno what happends if you add this for many cars of such.. perhaps it will completely go kahootie =).. who knows..
anyway, have fun!
That is sweet :)
Really nice effect :)
Wow! [grin] I didn't know you could do that kind of stuff with MMF2. [cool] Awesome!
Really neat effect, but this is the first MMF2 example to slow down on my computer.
Runs at 35-40frames a second when scrolling, 50 when still.
Computer: 3.2ghz processor, 1gb RAM
40 when moving, 50 when still. No noticable slowdown, however. 2.8GHz processor and 768mb of RAM.
Nice! How did you come up with that idea?
Though you can see the car in its own reflexion.
i just wanted to see if it was possible to get nice car reflections realtime in mmf,, dunno really what i hoped for..
anyway,, perhaps the car being reflected could be fixxed somehow?.. mayby playing with layers? or perhaps not using autoupdate, and make the car and such invisible and perhaps force update, but i suspect this wouldnt work since the frame isnt updated between.. One thing could prolly be to play abround with the lens image until you manage to exlude the car.
That looks really nice, I never even thought of anything like that. Doesn't seem to slow my computer down any either. I might try messing around adding some more objects, see if it struggles at all.
Doesn't slow down my computer. Lovely effect :)
50 / 49 fps while moving, really nice effect. Of course the reflection is not exactly correct, but it looks good. [grin]
That is a really good use of the lens object. It would be great if someone made a graphical object for the sole purpose of reflections.
But hey, once vitalize 4 is done, hardware acceleration will begin development. So then we'll probably be able to write extensions using shader language :)
Beautiful and incredible effect ! :D
But some bad pixel are displayed around objects... :(
Definitely a very cool example! Was running a solid 50 FPS on my machine. AMD 64 3200+, 1GB RAM
