Feature 10 Post Mortem – Conor
This post is about implementing feature 10, billboards. Since I have a space/moonish scene, I figured that moon rocks would be a fitting texture to use in my scene. I didn’t use anything for this feature other than the class videos for this one. I only ran into one problem implementing this one, in my […]

Rendering moving water was by far the most difficult task that I had to do all semester. I thought that I had everything working right away, but I soon found out that the water was not properly reflecting the skybox around it. Essentially, since we were reflecting the position of the water fragment in eye-space […]

Getting the camera working wasn’t too hard, as I just followed the video we were given in class. Getting it to adjust to the terrain’s elevation proved to be the tricky part. I looked at other people’s post mortems and online material about bilinear interpolation to figure out what to do. Fist I implemented two […]

Adding fog to my scene was one of the easier additions to my walkabout scene that I’ve done thus far. I got it to work on more or less my first try, although there was a lot of tweaking to be had after that. After watching the video on fog, I decided that I wanted […]

I completed rendering moving water reflecting my skybox texture. I had a couple of frustrations during this development. First, my water was just showing up black for a while, and I couldn’t figure out why. It turned out when I was trying to pass on my texcoord out to ftexcoord, I was passing ftexcoord. Silly […]
