EdzUp lighting demo

Miscellaneous Forums/Blitz Showcase/EdzUp lighting demo

Hi peeps,
here is the lighting demo (part of the Hunted EFPS system). The demo can be downloaded at http://www.edzup.co.uk/images/lighting.zip

Enjoy the demo =)

Little more info first please?

Nice to know you're still doing the game Ed, been ages since we've had a playable demo though. Sort it! :)

Its a demo of the lighting system that will be used in Hunted =), the demo is 1.19Mb =)

Its not a Hunted level but demonstrates the basis of the Hunted lighting system.

Do you mean 'lightning' instead of 'lighting'?

nope lighting, I intend to have lightmapped lighting in Hunted.

Ok, cool! It just looked like all it did right now was 'flash' every now and then. Is it changing the lightmaps, or are you adjusting the vertex colors?

Any pictures?

its changing lightmaps, the main thing is Hunted can select the lightmap it wishes to use so lightmaps can have multiple lights and multiple switches =).





I did something similar for the pseudodynamic orange lights of fires in the "secret of manes" demo. The Problem is this is eating a lot of Ram, especially in low end cards with 32 or even only 16 megs. Eg: 3* 512*512 = 12 megs.

strangely enough the vidram usage for the demo is 5Mb and thats everything running in the demo =). So I should be able to get a few lighting effects in the game ;)
