Bloom Effect On Game Elements #434

Open Brittank88 opened 2 years ago

Brittank88 commented 2 years ago

This rolls #422 into a checklist alongside other areas of the game where bloom could be applied (with separate toggles). As with #431, these checklist items can be added, removed, edited and discussed:

  • [ ] As a screenspace shader (overlays the entire game)?

for this do you mean instead of putting the bloom on each aspect individually, you just do it all at once?

totallyphysicallypossible commented 2 years ago

Maybe being able to change the settings of how the bloom works? such as its sensitivity to have it bloom and how much bloom it has. This could make levels that already look good with bloom even better if the settings were to be tweaked a little.

i like this, i think stuff like brightness thresholds could be really cool, make everything look like enlex's part in ragnarok lol

Screenspace shaders just apply it over the top of whatever would be displayed on the screen...this means that with the other bloom effects enabled, it would apply bloom...on the bloom as well.

So it's a bit different to "all at once" in the sense that it will definitely not produce the same effect as turning on all the other options.

Added to the list!

Doesnt reshade have this?

...Reshade integration would actually be super cool. @absoIute is it possible to directly interface with Reshade / apply it to GD?

ImmensityHQ commented 2 years ago

Here's an idea: perhaps generate a depth map based on z-order and feeding that into the reshade integration?

so elements on top have more bloom than elements on the bottom, that could be really cool actually

Sure! Reshade has a lot of shaders that do stuff with depth, like depth of field for example. MH could give Reshade a depth map to work with, which could make a lot of shaders look even cooler. Maybe this could even be expanded to automatically generating normal maps for different blocks and stuff in the game and giving Reshade a normal map to work with as well, but that probably would be a bit harder to implement.

Would require more work than I'd like, but seems redundant with its own UI already, though integrating custom shaders could just become that functionality anyway

Brittank88 commented 2 years ago

Understood, though mannn this would be so cool
