Supermodel Forum

There should be some logic in there so supermodel doesn't fall over if these bitmaps don't exist. Most people don't care to use them. This issue is going to keep coming up I know it.

Modern shaders are super portable
If i recall nvidia even has tools to automatically convert between languages

You need a folder called Assets
and the bitmap files should be in there

Because of the article, I doubt the statement very much and suspect SEGA uses Supermodel emulator's codes without any notification. I had wondered the same .. There are some differences between their emulation and ours, but it's extremely close. I said about the micro-textures, but the real3d also ...

Since I changed the renderer design a bit this is quite easy to do I honestly don't think it improves the render quality that much (I tried it). For me the issue is the texture aliasing, which is quite jarring on the model 3 Look at the wall as he drives up to it https://youtu.be/nrAyVo3jeWg&t=1...

thanks for these

If I had some sort of c implementation I could probably translate it to shader code. But is it worth emulating at this level, would anyone even notice lol. It's a trivial change to make it fully opaque if both layers overlap. It might be possible in 1 pass. Opengl can write to multiple render target...

>To use complementary patterns, wouldn't there have to be a change in the pattern select bit? Do we ever see this changing? Yes, different level lod models have different pattern select bits. Most games set different layers for different transparency effects (sega rally, daytona, emergency call ambu...

Scroll fog as far as could work out doesn't draw to either of the transparency layers and it has transparency, sega bass fishing.

I tried drawing it to both layers and it creates all kinds of rendering issues.

This is how it worked on the n64. https://ultra64.ca/files/documentation/online-manuals/man/pro-man/pro15/index15.2.html#:~:text=N64%20Programming%20Manual&text=Antialiasing%20is%20an%20algorithm%20that,stair%2Dcased%20or%20look%20jaggy. My guess is it would be pretty similar to that. I'd could ...
