Full screen shaders

by Quentin Headen · in Torque 3D Professional · 02/07/2011 (10:53 pm) · 2 replies

Hello! I know that Torque 3D allows you to make custom shaders to apply to geometry. But I was wondering, how can I create full screen, post-processing shaders in Torque 3D? Is it possible without having to hack the engine source?

If you do have to change the engine source in order to implement screen-space shaders, are there any resources for that?

Thanks

    I think PostFx is what you're looking for - but I've no idea how to go about using the system ;P. There are a few PostFx resources out there which might be a good place to start.

    The engine already has several postFx shaders already implemented. Like Daniel, I'm not shader master, so I can't offer too much advice, but check your \game\shaders\common\postFx folder. There's depth of field, HDR, SSAO, all of which are the kind of full-screen post-processing effects that you're looking for, as far as I know at least.
