BOSSMODE and Particle Shadow Maps

By -
Hello brothers and sisters, I bring you news of video games. BUT FIRST! The particle shadow maps must be seen.

VIEW THEM. VIEW THEIR SPLENDOR.

This video is long, but it is not required to watch the whole thing.

ok. time for 

BOSSMODE



BOSSMODE is a game that is all boss fights. It's also networked multiplayer. I'm trying to make a game that is a cross between raiding in WoW and Shadow of the Colossus. You move around by applying a torque to a cube. And when you shoot microcube death primitives, it also applies a force back to you. Use this to your advantage. The engine is basically done so now it's on to ~content~. Which is boss fights. Which is allllll self contained game design. isn't this great?

is this awesome y/n?

    This article offers an exciting glimpse into BOSSMODE, a multiplayer boss-fight game that combines elements of physics-based gameplay with large-scale combat inspired by games like World of Warcraft and Shadow of the Colossus. The discussion on particle shadow maps, networked multiplayer architecture, physics simulations, and game mechanics demonstrates how modern game development integrates graphics programming, real-time rendering, and interactive gameplay to create immersive gaming experiences.

    The article showcases how modern game engines combine particle shadow maps, real-time rendering, physics simulations, and interactive graphics to create immersive gaming experiences. Understanding rendering algorithms, visual effects, and graphics optimization is an important aspect of Image Processing Projects for Final Year. Practical exposure to these techniques helps students develop advanced visual applications, graphics engines, and real-time rendering solutions for interactive environments.

    The integration of physics-based gameplay and intelligent interactions also demonstrates how advanced algorithms are shaping modern digital experiences. Exploring Deep Learning Projects for Final Year can help students gain hands-on experience in intelligent agents, computer vision, pattern recognition, and AI techniques that are increasingly used in interactive simulations and gaming environments.

Reverse Engineering Unity Games

Hi. Today I will be writing about my efforts regarding reverse engineering unity games. As you may have read in a previous post, I have recently lost all my project files in a horrific idiot hard drive reformatting disaster. I was able to get my final builds back from some people I had sent it to... and actually, it just occurred to me yesterday that I had sent Unity QA a repro project for echobox that had almost all of the final source in it (except for the visualization portions and the level design), but they have yet to reply about sending me the project. A bug or a feature? So it turns out that reverse engineering Unity games is actually quite possible, and even somewhat easy. Is this a feature or a bug? In my case, I have a legitimate reason to reverse engineer as much code as possible from my game executables, because it will save me a ton of work trying to rebuild what I've lost. For others, I imagine this is somewhat of a headache. There is an extensive forum post  ab...

How to Simulate and Render Blobs

Hi everyone, It's blob time! This is a long one so buckle up. If you haven't been following along on my tweeter for the last month, I've been working on simulating and rendering blobs. Here's a dump of my progress (easily accessible from the hashtag #vectorboy64 ). I'll add some captions This first one is just me trying out position based dynamics and the constraint functions. PBD is a really cool way to simulate physics, and I'm really happy with how flexible it is and how easy it is to implement. I'm definitely going to use it for some other stuff in the future. position based dynamics with oscillating pressure and distance constraints #vectorboy64 (???) pic.twitter.com/ZOa6QLtndR — Kelly Jelly rebs your zankage and distunks you. (@pyromuffin) January 9, 2019 I spent a really long time trying to figure out the gradients of some tricky vector math formulas. I have them mostly correct, but there are still spurious rotations like this in the ...

How to render to HDR displays on Windows 10

Hey! If you missed it, yesterday I wrote an artisanal blogue poaste about a tool I am working on called the HDR injector . Today, I will write about how to present an HDR image in Windows. Some of this will be a summary of the talk by Evan Hart at GDC 2018. There are three steps, which I don't think are explained anywhere, except maybe within these ultra-rare DX12 samples that I had to catch midair from a hot tweet. Set your swapchain effect to DXGI_SWAP_EFFECT_FLIP_DISCARD . Emphasis on FLIP. The GDC talk above seems to think this isn't 100% required, but I couldn't get any HDR working without it. Set your swapchain buffer format to an HDR compatible backbuffer format. The ones that work for me are:  DXGI_FORMAT_R16G16B16A16_FLOAT and  DXGI_FORMAT_R10G10B10A2_UNORM , though I expect other formats might work. I haven't tested all of them. Depending on which format you picked in ( 2 ) you need to select the correct color space. If you  selected RGB...
