New Demo: Stained Shadow Maps

[Abba Zabba]

Uses a FrameBufferObject as default Shadow Render Target, if it fails to detect appropriate hardware support for it, it will fall back to using float PBuffers.
My best demo so far


Binaries

Engine source

Wow, that looks great! Source link doesn't work for me though. Other two work fine.

[Abba Zabba]

Fixed... had to set "Src" to all capital letters...
Now what does it say in the bottom left of your screen?

[Mr. Hunt]

That is like... awesome man. Great work... looks great... at the default window size (whatever it was) was getting about 150 fps too... but when I went to stretch it to fit my screen (1600x1200) went down to around 60 and looks great.

Open Data/XML/WInfo.xml with notepad or any other text editor, now spot the following lines:
<Dimension width ="800" height ="600" fullscreen = "false"/>

Change width from 800 to 1600 and height to 1200, set fullscreen to true just like this:
<Dimension width ="1600" height ="1200" fullscreen = "true"/>

Hmm, it didn't run for me. It said, loading demo, please wait and it sat there for a long while. It finally quit with a runtime error. The log said this:

Did that happen on the Radeon or the GeForce?

[OWA]

On the 6800U. Your other demo works fine though.

[Abba Zabba]

Well this demo is a bit beefier than the other one (Check out the size of Phong.xml, sweeeeeeeet Jesus :P), but it shouldn't cause a crash...
What drivers are you using?

[OWA]

I'm using the 71.89s.

[Abba Zabba]

Could explain a few things, I'm using the 76.44 btw and they obsolutely rock

Same here not working, the demo took too long to loading and shutdown the program then I get the message said that Windows XP has increased the virtual memory as it was too low. Look like this demo require 1GB memory to run.
