Cocos Creator 3.8 Post-Process Shader Writing (2/2) Advanced

Cocos

Preface In the last article , Kylin shared how to add your own post-effect Shader in the custom render pipeline in Cocos Creator 3.8. However, based on the BlitScreen solution, we can only write the simplest post-effect Shader. Today Kylin will use Gaussian blur to demonstrate how to write a multi-pass post-effect shader.

Dev snapshot: Godot 4.0 beta 9

Mircosoft Game Dev

This beta includes a few big changes which may interest a lot of users: String and StringName are now mostly cross-compatible throughout the engine API, as well as in various GDScript-specific expressions and statements ( GH-68747 ). Core: Add feature tags to signify engine float precision ( GH-69538 ).

How to Create a Game-Ready AAA asset

Logic Simplified

I used a Blinn Shader on the asset to spot any issues with the mesh. Blinn Shader helped me see highlights produced due to light shining off the surface at low angles. With that I have to create a low poly model of the gun on which we will bake the high poly details. I believe forms first - details last.

Cocos Creator 3.7.2 Focuses On Optimized Rendering And Lighting Capabilities

Cocos

Engine • Added DebugView at runtime UI control rendering debugging function. Editor • Support baking high-precision lighting maps to get a better baking effect. When the user turns on high-precision lightmap baking, 16-bit colors are used instead of 8-bit colors, and AO channels are baked separately.

Godot 4.0 will get a new, modernized lightmapper

Mircosoft Game Dev

Let's hope this implementation will also be of use to others making their own technology or engines, so they can use it as reference or just copy it. The new lightmapper is GPU based written mostly on Compute shaders (meaning it does most of the heavy lifting using the GPU, via Vulkan). Allows baking dynamic and static lights.

New improvements for GPUParticles in Godot 4.0

Mircosoft Game Dev

GPUParticles : Processes particles on GPU, allows very large amount of particles at little cost, and with ability to write custom particle shaders. x and the shader used is almost identical (should be easy to port). It can also be done from within a particle shader itself by chaining another particle system as a sub-emitter.
