Beginner-Problems oFusion

Hi!

I was told to come here and ask my questions here.
Hope someone can help..

There are two problems I am fightig with. the first is, I don't have the VertexTextureBlend-Shader in the Rollout-Menu (oFusionPass/Vertex Shader). It is missing! The oFusion-Viewport is active.

The second problem is creating a texture for the SkyBox. I tried it with frames and cubemap in oFusions TextureUnit Basic Parameters...

What do I do wrong??

Have you copied the shader files from the example scene to the "oFusion/Media/shaders" folder?

The shaders are created for vs/ps 2.0 (they can work on vs/ps 1 hardware, but the shader definition need to be modified for this) is your video hardware supporting this?

Addign 6 frames to the TU is needed for the Skybox, is there any message displayed after you assign the sky material?

when I select "Material" on the oFusion Scene-Window and choose a Material, I get the Message"SkyBox needs a CubeMaterial with 6 Textures/frames" It doesn't matter which material I select.


I found the Shaders thanks for the tipp! Vertexblending is really powerfull.

one more Question : Shadow Technique Stencil Aditiv doesn't work with vertexTextureBlend, right?

I will review the issue with the sky texture material

If other shadow types are working with your scene then Stencil Additive must work too

Best thanks, I am looking forward to read the skybox-solution.


here is a screen with my shadow-problem:

It looks after export the same as in the oFusion-Viewport.

By the way, which graphics card would you recommend for the development with oFusion?

For the Texture based shadow methods, you need to define objects either as Shadow Caster or Shadow Receiver (but not both)
