Portalized Graphics Preview (v0.30)

Just showing off some graphics. Self-illumination ("glow") on the cube, bump mapping, specular mapping, completely dynamic soft shadowing (video used the SM2 path for it, the SM3 path has much smoother and soft shadows but it's also a lot heavier) for _every_single_light_.

So is this lieka Portal mod or did you reverse-engineer it?

[nullsquared]

Neither. Being built from the ground up. Source (Portal's engine) wouldn't be able to accomplish movable or resizeable portals.

[nullsquared]

Explode? Portals move fine through portals. If the portals in question are linked, then the first one will fly out of itself. A bit buggy and not 100% correct, but I'll fix it up.

[nullsquared]

The shorter it is, the better, I guess. There was a first comment, but it never got through. Add me as a friend so I can PM you instead, that always works.

[nullsquared]

Something really weird is going on here. TiagoTiagoT, your newest comment just disappeared. And my comments aren't showing up.

Why don't you read the description?

...

Or the name of the god damn video for that matter?

[jomunoz]

wctje77, i guess your are not a programmer so you don't understand how many hours nullsquared had put on this project, and how hard its to make a good functioning and cool portal system on a scenegraph. And it's made by just one guy.

I've haven't touch Ogre in while but this make want to use it again and finish my project.

[pennykettle1]

That cube looks entirely badass.

@minernoob90 x'D Wow ... 3 years!? Omg I feel old!!! Well uhmm.. I dont really know what to say ;P I guess you're right

[minernoob90]

@wctje777 yes i know I'm responding to a 3 year old comment and you may not even see this... the point is portal was made by a professional company with many college educated and trained professionals working on the project for years. this on the other hand was made by a SINGLE amateur person

don't make lemonade

[TheABCZone]

Hey Nullsquared, you lookin' for a job at a game company?

I'm a big fan of you work and I'm interested in making a puzzle game with portals in Unity for the iPhone. If you wanted a job doing this stuff full time just let me know, alright?

[zamliman]

Really amazing work, but i just want to be sure.

Are you using Ogre ?

I would guess that you are but i just want to be 100% sure
