Hello,

I've tried the cartoon shader, and I've a problem. When, I look a shot of XIII, all the edge are perfeclys shown, but on my model it depends. (for instance the mouth don't appear correctly). I don't why, but if somebody can tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Moreover, I've test the cartoon shader onto a cube, and I don't understand why the edge are not inked..., but it appear black onto the faces.

As a reference...

I'm thinking that the models in XIII were specially modelled to allow that. Your model probably isn't, so try learning how the cartoon shader does what it does, then model your model accordingly so you can get the effect you want.

Cheers,
Preston

I'd love it if someone posted a screenshot of a HL2 style water shader running in DBPro.

This post would be much more useful if 'Leyvin ' didn't post: He is such a total idiot, he cannot realise when people are trying to teach each other! Everyone would learn something useful if you just
f*<<SERVER REMOVED CONTENT OF THIS SENTENCE>>>*t.

Hi, I solved my problem -9 posts above- (although not tried with "Metal11.fx").

I added a value at the alpha channel of RGBA inside the PS (from 0=transparent to 1=opaque), and used these render states:

AlphaBlendEnable = true;
SrcBlend = SrcAlpha;
DestBlend = ONE;
// (Usually: )
// DestBlend = InvSrcAlpha;
BlendOp = Add;
ZEnable = true;
ZWriteEnable = false;
CullMode = None;

No texture with alpha channel needed then.

(Just want you to know. That makes this community much more sense.)

Regards.

whoa!
i just discovered something that will solve a ton of problems! as most of you know, when you use object that were exported from cirtain programs (gamespace, cartography shop, etc..) dbp lights dont work on it for some reason, which means no real time lighing. however, ninja matts normal mapping fx file (the latest one) can do real time lights on any object, regardless of poly count, without a normal map or anything. if you just set the thing up like so:
then set it to an object, and calculate the positions of the lights you want (and set up their color and stuff)then vwala!it will handle the lighting for you.
