Here are some shots of offset mapping used in our new engine. Much thanks to the original author for sharing this technique.

Chris, are you going to incorporate it into the benchmarking utility you mentioned a while ago?

[Chris Egerter]

Definitely will.

Seems like everyone is doing this now http://tenebrae.sourceforge.net/beta/displacebump.jpg

Can you blame them its such a good effect with only a small preformance hit the main down size is limited instruction counts can get hit adding in the extra code :/.

Could someone post a working .exe? I have glut already installed but I still can't run it without more stuff.

I hate DOF effects I think they look so terrible. So that made me go ugh at it , but other than that it was pretty nice.

Hello,

I recently found that Far Cry already has offset shaders you just have to apply them to objects:

just a quick example I thought I'd share

check this thread to see how to apply this technique to your own levels in FC:

There are no DOF effects in the shot I was referring to (mip-level transitions aside).
