Heat haze

Post by Spiney »

Was trying out the heat haze whilst working on the particles.
I wanted to take a look at the image but I don't know how to open crunch files.
I noticed there doesn't seem to be any fade out, I know fading normals/dudv is tricky but is it possible to animate or fade the image?

I believe the crunch utility can uncrunch too (it is located at https://code.google.com/p/crunch/ ). Otherwise I might still have the original normal maps I made for the flamer and the explosions. Looking at https://github.com/Unvanquished/Unvanqu ... ze_fp.glsl it doesn't seem possible to interpolate between two normal maps but I think it would be ok to add a "strength factor" that can evolve in time.

Yeah, a strength factor which can be faded in and out is essentially what I want.
I'll look into the crunch thing after I get the first pass of particles done.
