[lost rock]

looks good

[wintry lodge]

More LD overhauled

[silk creek]

Whoa! That looks amazing! 🔥

[wintry lodge]

Thank you! We have so much more to cook up, this is just the start

[mellow inlet]

I feel like I’m noticing a change in PBR, but I may be wrong

Looks stellar tho

[knotty badge]

Veryy beautiful

[wintry lodge]

Wym

[civic basin]

wip

[civic basin]

It's a bedrock issue with colormaps afaik.

[wintry lodge]

Would be cool if we can find a way to fix it but it may not be possible

[lone nest]

That always bugged me in Cherry Groves

[gaunt sorrel]

Wait I'm confused. What's wrong with the image?

[wintry lodge]

grass side color map isnt working

the grass top is orange but the side is still default

[gaunt sorrel]

Oh right

[thick gulch]

Bugrok moment

[mellow inlet]

Heightmaps

[wintry lodge]

ohhhh idk if im gonna redo the LD heightmaps

[ripe island]

normalmaps 😍

[left marten]

[ripe island]

I wish I could use emojis from other servers 🥹

[lone nest]

[ripe island]

😭

[lone nest]

[left marten]

[left marten]

The shadow is so far off the actual grass blades

[ripe island]

as long as these work on the entities, I don't care, no artifacts or defects bother me anymore

I've been waiting for this for months 😇

it's lovely

[civic basin]

wip. Wish shadow_clamp_angle was 0 by default.

[wintry lodge]

Oh that's nice

[rancid zodiac]

alright guys, get cooking

:doggysmurkW:

[knotty badge]

Woahh that's Deferred?

[gaunt sorrel]

Yup

[wintry lodge]

as of today yes

[silk ore]

Sad that not enough people will see that beautiful thing 😔

[gaunt sorrel]

What does flowing water look like?

[gaunt sorrel]

Huh

[knotty badge]

How hard do you think would it be to actually implement these white foamy lines at the sides

[wintry lodge]

id really like sea foam

it would just look so good

[gaunt sorrel]

Woah, the flowing water didn't look like that in your last screenshot

[ripe island]

now it looks like thsi

[gaunt sorrel]

Did you do something to it?

[maiden grove]

Changed water fog it seems like

[mellow inlet]

For me, deferred is now basically complete

[cedar stream]

Still need better clouds

[civic basin]

I'd rather have them focus on some other stuff first like caves and dimension lighting.

[wintry lodge]

yep

[cedar stream]

True

[grizzled wagon]

Deferred Rendering - SmokeyStack's Super Duper Graphics Pack

[mellow inlet]

"Hybrid Normals" showcase (Using BareBones)\

normals should look like a heightmap and a normalmap combined

[rancid zodiac]

deferred or rtx?

[left marten]

rtx

well the screenshots are rtx

[rancid zodiac]

i had hoped i guessed wrong

:(

[left marten]

obsidian as a whole can be used to generate pbr for deferred as well as rtx

iirc

[gaunt sorrel]

You can tell because there's global illumination

[left marten]

yep

[mellow inlet]

works with deferred tho

[left marten]

only if veka released the PT shader

[rancid zodiac]

👀

[left marten]

[gaunt sorrel]

But not the same glow

[rancid zodiac]

so like

[left marten]

only the pbr textures

thats all

[rancid zodiac]

could i get deferred obisidian barebones pbr on my phone?

[gaunt sorrel]

Yeah

[left marten]

yes

[gaunt sorrel]

In previews and betas

[mellow inlet]

yes
(but somebody would have to send you the generated pack)

[rancid zodiac]

i neeeeeedd

[rancid zodiac]

oof

[left marten]

if you don't already know, Obsidian is a tool/utility to generate PBR materials for the pack you want

[mellow inlet]

As far as i know executables can't run on mobile devices

[left marten]

does obsidian support 128x packs?

[gaunt sorrel]

Oh I thought you were talking about the packs themselves and not the tool to make them

[mellow inlet]

i theoretically supports all sizes

[gaunt sorrel]

Oh we should continue in #1182091012177399809

[left marten]

they were a bit misled with the whole convo after asking about the GI from the screenshots

thats why i cleared it up

[rancid zodiac]

someone get deferred obsidian barebones pbr for me :doggysmurkW:

Water Strawberry Nostalgia

[rancid zodiac]

ooooo

ooo hooo oooh oooohhhooohoo ahahha ahhhh aggghhhh AAAHAHHHH AAAGHHH 🐒 🦍

[rancid zodiac]

i like heightmaps but…

ooo hooo oooh oooohhhooohoo ahahha ahhhh aggghhhh AAAHAHHHH AAAGHHH 🐒 🦍

[ripe island]

normalmaps better

[rancid zodiac]

i like my bumpy 3d detailed looking blocks

[rancid zodiac]

while it may look more vanilla-y

[ripe island]

heightmaps look to flat to me

[rancid zodiac]

whaaaattt

what about normals

[ripe island]

look here

on the heightmap you just have small outlines, and on the normalmap you have the illusion of convexity and that this block is rounded

[rancid zodiac]

mmmm

idkkkkkkk

[ripe island]

also here, the bumps look more real and are not just thin outlines

[rancid zodiac]

hmmm

i can kinda see something

[ripe island]

or here

[vast sandal]

Ray tracing vibes

[mellow inlet]

real statement

[civic basin]

It will look so good once we get caustics.

[mellow inlet]

Also, that looks surprising good

[knotty badge]

That water in the first pic looks delicious

[civic basin]

wip (raft image is bad because I accidentally enabled my old color grading... whoops)

[wintry lodge]

Pretty

[south lily]

Prizma

[visual plover]

So pretty 😍 I wanna eat ut

[narrow kernel]

why is deferred so blurry? antialiasing is at the lowest

i cant see properly far away

[civic basin]

Disable upscaling

[narrow kernel]

i cant

my series x would blow up

[wintry lodge]

Fog can create an atmospheric blur

But the image form the screenshot doesn't look blurry at all

To me at least

[narrow kernel]

when im standing still it looks somewhat normal

but when i move it gets extremely blurry

[wintry lodge]

Odd

[narrow kernel]

also when i turn too fast i see yellow triangles in the sky?

[wintry lodge]

I play on a lower res than the series X and never had that

[civic basin]

#1182091012177399809 :P

[narrow kernel]

yh ur right my bad

[wintry lodge]

My b

[narrow kernel]

sadly you cant change res on series x

it kills my performance and i dont play on a 4k screen

[rancid zodiac]

ambatukam

[visual plover]

Do you have a discord server for prisma?

[ripe island]

Yes

You can find link on mcpedl

[visual plover]

Okay thank you

[knotty badge]

Woah that looks insane

[wintry lodge]

New work in progress color grading for LD

Still working out the issues with night time brightness

[vast sandal]

Upscaling on

Upscaling off

[wintry lodge]

[left marten]

Very nice

[rancid zodiac]

stop being so realistic my eyes cant look away

[cedar stream]

“DEFERRED SUCKS IT CANT LOOK ANYTHING LIKE JAVA SHADERS”
Deferred:

[grizzled wagon]

I mean...deferred rn in this weeks preview sucks bc its buggy

[gaunt sorrel]

That's how Mali users felt

[cedar stream]

I haven’t had any bugs

🤷‍♂️

[wintry lodge]

haha

no

im gonna make things even more realistic

👿

[ripe island]

for me the game freezes

[civic basin]

Some screenshots of Deferred where I disabled auto-exposure. Ignore the SSS bugs. This is a W.I.P. of LD.

[cedar stream]

What does noon look like without ao?

[civic basin]

It still looks pretty bad because of fog :/

[wintry lodge]

new fogs, new noon lighting, new color grading

[pastel thicket]

The waterr is so crispyyyy

[rancid zodiac]

woah

[wintry lodge]

[knotty badge]

irritating fr

[wintry lodge]

I know what causes it and I'm looking at reducing it

This is caused by my water mer, which wasn't a problem before the water got updated to the new lighting model. Now it just looks wrong and I'm looking to see if there's a way I can keep point light lighting and stuff reflecting off the water without going just pure 0 roughness

[maiden grove]

I think it might be a good idea to go with uniform MERS values for water

[knotty badge]

I was talking about the texture 😭 It just doesn't work well together with wavy water, a lot of RTX packs remove it

works better with still water

https://www.complementary.dev/assets/img/editedScreenshots/styleComparison-notitle.png

[wintry lodge]

Can't see the water texture that well with the new lighting model. Only reason it shows up in mine is due to the mer value

[knotty badge]

Ohh

[wintry lodge]

Likely what I'm gonna do because this way doesn't work as good as it did when water was bad

[knotty badge]

Is it hard to make Deferred packs?

[knotty badge]

would love trying to achieve the 2nd pic

[grizzled wagon]

No...but is it hard to make things look good? Yeah

[knotty badge]

Yeah i bet, and theres no live preview right

So you have to rejoin worlds

[grizzled wagon]

There is for some things

[knotty badge]

hmmm alright

[wintry lodge]

We have a little bit of live editing with the editor

But things like fog and actual textures need you to reload the world

But in general, anyone can make a pack, but making it looks good requires a lot of work, and understanding of the systems

That is also super apparent with pbr textures as well.. anyone can do it, but getting the small details down and making it really good takes some time

[ripe island]

Lightning is very easy but pbr is harder

[wintry lodge]

water

no reflections

[maiden grove]

where reflections

[wintry lodge]

disabled

for comparison

now with

(modified SSR)

NOOO THE WATER BUG

it seems very finnicky, i reduced reflection quality and it broke it

and tabbing out and tabbing back in fixed it

this water bug is so strange

[wintry lodge]

water with waves and only sky reflections

[knotty badge]

Ah yes i don't really need that

[knotty badge]

Looks amazing like always

[ripe island]

That's sad, wish more people would make pbr 😔

PBR is fun :c

[maiden grove]

Does that use a non zero roughness?

[wintry lodge]

it uses zero

i switched it to be uniform

i can see how nonzero looks though

i just disabled SSR in the config for the high settings

[maiden grove]

Probably not that great lol

[wintry lodge]

this reminds me of like current RD shaders

[maiden grove]

It just looks a little rough (literally) so I assumed there was some roughness being used

[wintry lodge]

its likely just the way the normal is

or well, wave config i guess

but thats basically just editing a normalmap

rtx

deferred

[knotty badge]

It definitely looks good if you do it right, your pack is pretty good

[knotty badge]

You edit the packs inside the world editor?

[wintry lodge]

i think the only thing better about rtx is the way it handles fog and thats it at this point

[wintry lodge]

using the bedrock editor yea

i dont usually

but i did this time around

[ripe island]

Thank you ☺️💖

[knotty badge]

I gotta try that fr, is there a template pack?

[wintry lodge]

no but you can use any pack to mess with stuff

[grizzled wagon]

I do recommend moving to #1182091012177399809 to continue the Editor Discussion

[knotty badge]

Mb

[rancid zodiac]

ooo heightmaps

:doggysmurkW:

[wintry lodge]

still working on the water

trying to find a balance between reflection clarity and realistic look

im getting there

[ripe island]

(screenshot take totally by me)

[wintry lodge]

did some dark magic and greatly improved the visuals of emissive textures

[left marten]

Modded SSR config?

Cuz that looks amazing

That sky with the sunset is likely the best I've seen in deferred

[ripe island]

fading_distance set to 1

[left marten]

:o

I see

[ripe island]

I think that's all he changed

[left marten]

I haven't opened up deferred since trying out the SSR stuff when it first came out on mobile

[ripe island]

you should try new water

and mess with it in editor

[left marten]

Will do when I get the time

[wet slate]

emissive saturation

[wintry lodge]

Well Ty

[wintry lodge]

Yea that's it. Dont know what anything else does so I just make it longer range

[civic basin]

First version of Luminous Dreams (Left) vs Current version of Luminous Dreams (Right), in Preview 1.21.30.22.

[south lily]

Can you make reflections more visible

[grizzled wagon]

It be better if u used the first preview

[civic basin]

My version switcher no worky

[civic basin]

I'll try. The version I showed is a wip. usually the reflections can be seen when objects are bright or when the water surface is dark.

[south lily]

Water shouldn’t reflect fog imo

[civic basin]

Yea :/ It looks good when I disable fog and I wish it could look the same with fog enabled

[wintry lodge]

Water

This is I think the final version I'm settling on

[knotty badge]

Bloodbath

[rancid zodiac]

MY DREAM

[serene dagger]

Looks neat

[severe pagoda]

How tf do you get this on bedrock? Are these from console or nah?

[gaunt sorrel]

Xbox, PC, Android and iOS

[mellow inlet]

They “work” on console, but I think you need to use realms and Minecraft on another device

[lone nest]

[severe pagoda]

I have all of those

Teach me the ways 🙏🏻, I can’t not have shaders atp

[cedar stream]

or multiplayer game

[rancid zodiac]

doesnt work on console, it works on xbox…

[severe pagoda]

Well.. got it working and I think this is my new favorite way to play the game🩷

[cedar stream]

That’s a console

[narrow kernel]

xbox is a console tho

[rancid zodiac]

its better to be specific about it because it only works on xbox

[rancid zodiac]

also i said that to help cope with no playstation deferred

[cedar stream]

Yet*

[rancid zodiac]

its gonna be a while brother

[gaunt sorrel]

*gasp* They're sunsetting playstaion!?

[rancid zodiac]

it could be a sunrise too you know

[cedar stream]

That’s what yall said about iOS

[wintry lodge]

missing texture dimension (real)

not a bug btw

just a modified renderchunk material

cuz why not

[rancid zodiac]

well this time it’s different

[rancid zodiac]

prizma really pairing with bare bones well rn

water color got darker for some reason but it has subtle waves with it, so i think its fitting

[wispy pivot]

My custom shader

[maiden grove]

Yup it's allowed, just make sure to clearly state that this is a custom shader ^

[lone nest]

Edit of Newb I'm assuming?

[knotty badge]

4th image is really nice

[rancid zodiac]

brooo

is this that legendary RT texture pack?

[vast sandal]

JG RTX

[rancid zodiac]

oh ok hmm

[wintry lodge]

Messing around with normal mapping

[left marten]

Real

[south lily]

To this day i still don’t know what normal maps is

I don’t see anything special in your screenshot looks like regular textures

[left marten]

Different type of PBR texture

One of the texture artists here might have a comparison image between heightmaps and normalmaps

[south lily]

I’ve seen the comparison

Normal maps look like regular textures

Nothing special

[wintry lodge]

they have slopes to them

curves

they allow for cool bendiness in reflections and stuff

heightmaps are just flat

[left marten]

Let's just say normalmaps have a lot more granularity with how an artist can "sculpt" a PBR texture

Far more than they could with heightmaps

[south lily]

🤨👌

[visual plover]

Honestly I like the look of normal maps way more than height maps

Height maps always look flat to me

[ripe island]

let me show you this

[grizzled wagon]

Cursed

[ripe island]

normalmap

heightmap

no pbr

[thick gulch]

My internet

[left marten]

too much :O

[visual plover]

No pefect

[visual plover]

Reflections are so much better on Normal maps

[thick gulch]

Hmm....

i used the last prizma

[ripe island]

and?

[ripe island]

here is heightmap

zoom in and see that it does have them

[thick gulch]

but the texture is normal....

[ripe island]

What?

[ripe island]

Yes, this is heightmap

[thick gulch]

Stop

Wtf

[ripe island]

Are you okay?

[ripe island]

File name doesn't matter

Brush

[thick gulch]

file manager bug moment

[ripe island]

No

[thick gulch]

i thought it was kind of very unusual normal map

[ripe island]

I can name it "bone_block.yourmom" and it will be fine 💀

[thick gulch]

Do you see pink?

[thick gulch]

.

[ripe island]

It's not when you open it

[thick gulch]

sry

[thick gulch]

.

because of the pink

😂

[ripe island]

And i name heightmaps and normalmaps the same in files, it doesn't matter when your textureset is right

Work smart not hard

[thick gulch]

Ik....

💀

[lone nest]

[left marten]

watermalon catto

[visual plover]

I don't think that's very graphics showcases

[left marten]

its best graphics i see in 10 years

very realistic

[wintry lodge]

Wish I could share stuff I've been working on but it's not bedrock 😭

[wintry lodge]

Been working on some Java PBR textures but yea

[mellow inlet]

have you joined labPBR discord yet?

[wintry lodge]

I'm in shader labs

[mellow inlet]

Speaking of which

I might try my hand at Java PBR soon because I just got my hands on Adobe Substance

[wintry lodge]

Let's go

[lone nest]

We need more java pbr creators tbh

[wintry lodge]

Real there's not too many

I'll be posting my stuff in the MCRTX server so yea

[wintry lodge]

Adapting your stuff to lab shouldn't be too bad since your pack is based off normals anyway. You will however need to draw heightmaps for POM. The hardest change to adapt to is just what the RGB channels do

[mellow inlet]

Pom shouldn’t be too bad tbh

It’s basically just glorified heightmaps

[wintry lodge]

Yeah. You have to combine a heightmap with a normal and stuff

[mellow inlet]

Yep

Oh boy

I can’t wait to revisit labPBR for the second time

[wintry lodge]

For sure. I tried it months ago and didn't get it. I'd say I'm doing really good rn though

[mellow inlet]

Real

[mellow inlet]

BetterOnBedrock do be kinda cool tho
~~@civic basin ~~

[civic basin]

Thanks! Here I modified some configs and I am using Luminous Dream's test version ^^

[knotty badge]

dang the video is 350mb

Looks great besides the sky

[civic basin]

I agree about the sky. I haven't had much time to focus on my pack because of other priorities.

[left marten]

That's really pretty, the ambience hits just right

Just needs some fixes to the sky

[knotty badge]

Idk if you can do much about the sky, i've tried around myself and it seems like the devs have to fix the sky overall

[left marten]

[civic basin]

Thanks ❤️

[knotty badge]

but damn the water and light is gorgeous

[visual plover]

This isn't very graphics showcases of you

I'm pretty sure that's minecraft.

[mellow inlet]

This took like 3 hours

[ripe island]

PrizmaDeferred

[pastel spruce]

Wow, this last one is really nice

[ripe island]

Thank you 💖

[ripe island]

Prizma deferred

[civic basin]

Better on Bedrock approved

[left marten]

That's great

[wintry lodge]

This new jungle fog I cooked up slaps fr fr

Holy compression on the pics man 😭 I miss my nitro

[mellow inlet]

That looks amazing

[wintry lodge]

Bob + deferred is unmatched

[mellow inlet]

Real

Uuggh

now I need to test BoB Deferred Obsidian

Speaking of which, @wintry lodge please make a deferred obsidian preset

I suck at deferred configs

[wintry lodge]

Although one bug that was mostly unnoticeable before is really noticeable now and looks like I’m gonna have to fix some stupid stuff now

[wintry lodge]

If I have time

[mellow inlet]

[civic basin]

Oop I forgot.

[mellow inlet]

Oop

[wintry lodge]

Is making a deferred preset any different?

I swear deferred looks better

[maiden grove]

What's that?

[wintry lodge]

A tree spawned underwater

And those are air bubbles

[ripe island]

maybe it's placebo but aa looks sharper

[wintry lodge]

Something looks better

Like the light rays have never been this crisp

I wonder if they messed with the clamp angles

[ripe island]

nah

for me upscaling/aa looks better

[wintry lodge]

That I have noticed

Especially on mobile

Maybe we are both insane

[civic basin]

Eat or verify if stuff looks better? Think poggy.

[wintry lodge]

Lmao

I say... do both

[mellow inlet]

Slightly iirc

You just get access to deferred features

And the imported files are different

[ripe island]

wish it could handle things like this better

[wintry lodge]

Yea, it's better than it used to be though that's for sure

[civic basin]

Feels the same to me

[ripe island]

it's better when it comes to ghosting and sharpness, but things like glass and other fine lines suck just as much

[wet slate]

nvm

[wintry lodge]

Lowkey could make a non PBR texture pack with these new textures I've been working on

Everything in here is a custom texture btw, none of these are vanilla even if they look like it

[vast sandal]

Strawberry Milk

[mellow inlet]

I still need to try strawberry deferred

too bad deferred hasn’t been treating me well

[wintry lodge]

Redoing quite a lot of my textures, this is only a small sample size of what's to come. I'm mainly cleaning up textures that were originally just very messy and didn't flow well, or just didn't look very good to begin with, or finally making some textures custom

[wintry lodge]

Nice

[wintry lodge]

This looks cool. I'm gonna see what else I could do with this

Although this is fairly creepy lol

[wintry lodge]

Working on some updates for my RTX pack

General changes are clearer fogs, and less bright emissives

[wet slate]

reworking on the fog

[wintry lodge]

Better RTX

[wet slate]

lit redstone ore

mojang pls give us some sort of self illumination

[gaunt sorrel]

How does snow look with subsurface

[ripe island]

snow with sss looks good

[wintry lodge]

normals vs heightmap. just for funs

[left marten]

just for this pic, heightmaps look a lot better

the finer-details does it for me

[rancid zodiac]

heightmapsssss

[wet slate]

trying to redo a sunset

circle looks kinda good
i just have to control the rayleigh strenth

[knotty badge]

The hair matches

[ripe island]

Haha

[civic basin]

That's nice.

[wintry lodge]

i love that these can create mini light shafts

[mental spoke]

That looks like Modded Java Edition with Shaders, 2 years ago I wouldn't have believed this is Bedrock

I almost got fooled tbh until I saw the space below the hotbar, great job

[wet slate]

does some one have pics of deferred with gi

[civic basin]

Just some screenshots while playtesting some stuff for my Add-On. It's mainly world-gen focused, and it works great with Deferred. I would like some feedback too. And yea, the inside of the taiga forest looks a little bad, because I don't know why or how to fix it.

[south lily]

Old screenshot

[mental spoke]

That's old? I feel like I saw this few weeks ago

[mental spoke]

Btw Is that Plagued PBR?

[wintry lodge]

really old version yea

[south lily]

Very old screenshot

[wintry lodge]

so old theres no SSS

[mental spoke]

1.20.60 betas added Volumetric Fog, Point Light and SSS were added way later

[thick gulch]

Too black

[wintry lodge]

deferred

rtx

[lone nest]

[rancid zodiac]

ok this is rt

[rancid zodiac]

deferred

[wintry lodge]

both correct

[wintry lodge]

deferred on the doodo laptop

the blurryness is real

[rancid zodiac]

does that like run worse than some phones

[wintry lodge]

It's about on par with the lower end

About 30fps at 720p on mostly low

I have vol fog on high, and reflections on medium

Big difference though is on PC SSR works on all quality settings where on mobile it only works on ultra reflection

[visual plover]

What laptop has it running that bad???

I can run med high setting on integrated graphics 😦

[wintry lodge]

Depends on the integrated gpu. This laptop is like 4 years old now. Didn't quite get the absolute insane Igpus we have now

[visual plover]

Ohh

[wintry lodge]

It's got a Ryzen 5 3500u (4 cores 2.1ghz clock speed), Radeon Vega 8 graphics (2gb vram), 8gb ram (2gigs less because of vram), and the ram is likely non upgradeable

[left marten]

Yikes

[visual plover]

Opinion should I buy a used pc that has a 1660 super / ryzen 5 2600

[left marten]

In 2024, no

Only if you budget doesn't allows
you for something better

[visual plover]

I'm only playing light games like roblox and minecraft

Naw I don't got much

[left marten]

That doesn't mean there aren't options

[left marten]

How much, also we should move to #1182091012177399809

[visual plover]

Okay

[civic basin]

Screenshots of my pack and me celebrating 20 years of being on this planet, and my intro to this world was today, 20 years ago... Insane!

I forgot the furniture Add-On, but it's a good one.

Luminous Dreams - Modified shadow configs.

[wintry lodge]

It's rough. But I've optimized it enough that it works for everything I'd need it for

[cedar stream]

Happy birthday poggy !

[mellow inlet]

Happy Birthday Poggy!!!

[wintry lodge]

Better RTX

[maiden grove]

What's the seed & coordinates? 🙃

If you still have them

[wintry lodge]

It's the jagged peaks world template

This is right at the spawn

[maiden grove]

Where can I find it?

Nvm found it, never knew there are seed templates

[civic basin]

Serious? qwq

[lone nest]

Lol

[cursive geyser]

wha-

[left marten]

:o

[wintry lodge]

new work in progress daytime sky

inspired a little by the RTX sky model

[wintry lodge]

noon changes

early sunset

mid sunset

late sunset

[wintry lodge]

full new set of sky colors

i added like 10 new keyframes to get the changes to be more precise (just time is being added to quick for those to be fully noticeable)

[wet slate]

thank you devs

[pallid olive]

How much is the computer?

Because those aren't bad parts for a budget system

And the 2600 can be upgraded to a normal 5000 series or x3d chip later on

You can also upgrade the gpu later and sell the old one to get back some cash

[visual plover]

250

Surprisinglu

Surprisingly

[pallid olive]

that's not bad

not bad at all, firm or best offer?

[visual plover]

I got it down from 300

@pallid olive

Said I'd pick it up the next day

[civic basin]

New birch would look better

Can't wait for you to try it.

[wintry lodge]

i cant either

[glacial grove]

This is how the night should look like in normal deferred

[mellow inlet]

For the most part yeah

Bit laggy tho

[glacial grove]

I could reduce my settings

The water is was brought it do tho

I think better rtx look like seus ptgi

[ripe island]

When you play fog and there is RTX

[rancid zodiac]

betterfogtx

[left marten]

This seriously looks amazing

[wintry lodge]

RTGI just goes so hard

[pastel thicket]

Quirky can I marry your rtx presets

[wintry lodge]

Sure lol

[left marten]

me too :3 waiting for the other preset to come out so that i can snag that for myself

[wintry lodge]

I'll make it once I fix most of the issues with this one

[left marten]

nice

[mellow inlet]

hm?

[left marten]

:3

[mellow inlet]

[left marten]

can't disclose

:p

[mellow inlet]

ok

[left marten]

[mellow inlet]

oh yeah

I should probably post some of my stuff here

WIP Thingy

[left marten]

[lone nest]

I like the lava

[left marten]

CATTO RTX PRESET!?1/!/

[wintry lodge]

👀

[mellow inlet]

[wintry lodge]

i totally didnt know about this

[mellow inlet]

real lmao

[left marten]

[wintry lodge]

dark

[rancid zodiac]

where bare bones deferred pbr

:doggysmurkW:

[wintry lodge]

default rtx water with betterRTX reflection changes

just makes me sad

the wave range is just so brutally short

[lofty heath]

aw, i love god rays 🥺

[pastel thicket]

Im gonna cry what is this sorcery

Burn him at the stake hes a wizard

[left marten]

[left marten]

very old yss se screenshot (we did ssr before mojang)

deferred in its current state looks better anyways, oh well

[wintry lodge]

(not deferred) just a nice screenshot i got while updating some stuff for my BRTX preset

[left marten]

[lofty heath]

where to download? :)

[ripe island]

mcpedl

but use version for deferred not rtx

[lofty heath]

-# thanks for not using link shorteners

[ripe island]

link shorteners? what is that?

you mean those links with ads etc.?

[lofty heath]

yeah

Most ads are viruses or something like that

[ripe island]

ooh yeah i hate that

[lofty heath]

anyway, it worked without any errors, thanks (I don't know how to take a picture)

[ripe island]

💖

[lofty heath]

I wonder if the community would complain if Mojang changed the color of this leaf to that shade of orange

[gaunt sorrel]

Oh, right, my change was made on top of Plagued PBR

[lofty heath]

ok, but what is your opinion on this?

[gaunt sorrel]

Rather just keep it green

[lofty heath]

What are the features of Prizma Deferred?

[civic basin]

Sunset

[wintry lodge]

NOT DEFERRED

[cursive geyser]

looks beautiful

[gaunt sorrel]

But it will be sweet when sky colour effects the end

[wintry lodge]

100%. I wanna try to remake this in deferred when sky color is working

For now it's just something BetterRTX stuff

[lofty heath]

I'm not going to lie, the last one looks too real to be Minecraft, not in a good way.

[mellow inlet]

wdym?

[lofty heath]

overrealistic

[mellow inlet]

really?

Where would you say I made it too over realistic

just out of curiosity

[lofty heath]

I can't express in words what I feel seeing this

but it has to do with the sunlight itself in my city

[mellow inlet]

Ah

I’m still trying to figure out if I should take this as a good thing or a bad thing

[lofty heath]

no no! don't take this as a criticism, please

[mellow inlet]

[civic basin]

These look great!

[civic basin]

Sunrise with modified configs, Luminous Dreams w.i.p.

[mellow inlet]

Awesome

The sun looks great

[wintry lodge]

I gotta play with deferred again. Especially now that I know exactly what I want for the atmospheres

A lot of what I have done for RTX I'm 100% porting over

[ripe island]

Prizma Deferred 1.2.24

[cursive geyser]

Looks great!!

I like how the sun looks

[knotty badge]

Looks lovely

[civic basin]

Just a bridge.

[ripe island]

thank you!! 💖

[ripe island]

BetterRTX

Deferred

[mellow inlet]

What preset?

[ripe island]

default

[left marten]

whoa

[ripe island]

I know there are better presets for betterrtx, but it's still not an equal comparation

[copper bison]

I like deferred better in those screenshots

[left marten]

compare deferred with vanillaRTX, since that is even fairer of a comparison ngl

[ripe island]

BetterRTX

Deferred

[ripe island]

did that many times

[left marten]

deferred isnt really at the level of betterRTX yet atm

[mellow inlet]

Real

[ripe island]

but someone asked me if deferred is finally as good as betterrtx, and imo it can match betterrtx outdoor

[mellow inlet]

Default BetterRTX is kinda mid tho tbh

[mellow inlet]

yes

[left marten]

hmm, id disagree

[mellow inlet]

I honestly agree

[left marten]

the GI is missing

without it deferred can look wack

[mellow inlet]

the only things deferred will get beaten in is GI and fog

but most other areas look almost just as good

[ripe island]

but betterrtx is often too bright and due to broken clouds, lack of AO (denoiser) and lack of SSS it loses a lot

[left marten]

hm true

[ripe island]

what are you talking about, RTX fog is low res trash

I'm not saying that deferred fog is good, but rtx fog is so low res and blurry that it doesn't have many advantages

[mellow inlet]

I think the way RTX handles fog is generally better tho

At least with colors

[ripe island]

you can get good fog colors with deferred too

[mellow inlet]

true

Deferred Fog can’t interact with colored glass tho, right

[ripe island]

and RTX fog is not rendered at all when you look at it through anything semi-transparent

[mellow inlet]

yeah

On an unrelated note, are normal maps in deferred still really bad looking

[ripe island]

BetterRTX

Deferred

[mellow inlet]

your color grading is much nicer than default BetterRTX tbh

Idk if default does any tonemapping and stuff for

[ripe island]

it's also sun color, sky color, fog color and a lot more

[mellow inlet]

I think majority of those are editable via BetterRTX presets still

[ripe island]

iirc also uses hable(or whatever it was called in the config file) just like my pack

[maiden grove]

Reflections too

[mellow inlet]

I don’t think sooo?

[ripe island]

probably yes, but I don't want to make rtx preset anymore, it didn't allow me to achieve what I wanted anyway

[mellow inlet]

yeah

honestly i really like the configurability of deferred, but i just haven’t wanted to get “into it” just due to how finicky all of it feels.

[ripe island]

And AO if the denoiser didn't kill it completely

[mellow inlet]

It’s also just hard to develop something for RTX and port it to deferred simultaneously. I just don’t have the time nor dedication for that.

[wintry lodge]

Idk with RTX I was able to craft the exact thing I wanted it to be

I haven't quite found that with deferred yet

[wintry lodge]

Through better RTX at least

[ripe island]

Thats me with deferred

RTX didn't let me create what I wanted and deferred does

yeah, maybe pbr has lobotomy, but it is what it is

[maiden grove]

SSS can be added into BetterRTX btw

[gaunt sorrel]

Why is the fog thicker in deferred?

[ripe island]

i know

[ripe island]

I remember that for some strange reason when you changed rtx fog rendering distance it became thicker

I suspect that this is it

but I haven't visited my rtx pack for a long time, I should check it

[lofty heath]

it's very similar :O

[wintry lodge]

RTX tends to fade out fog as it's farther from you rather than deferred which keeps it the same thickness no matter what

[gaunt sorrel]

Is that a good or bad thing?

[wintry lodge]

I prefer how RTX does it

It avoids the smog look

Cuz deferred fog looks like smog half the time

Yea but it still looks better than deferred fog imo.

Even at doubled distance

I don't like how deferred fog is always the same thickness. Far range fog looks bad and ruins distant views

At least with RTX the fog has a central focal point

As in the sun

[ripe island]

oh, I got it all wrong

[wintry lodge]

With betterRTX for example it fades out enough that it's more like a haze on the distance rather than a thick smoke

[ripe island]

nevermind

yeah RTX good in that case

[mellow inlet]

Yeah ik, I’ve heard it’s a bit of a hassle tho

[wintry lodge]

my betterRTX preset

my attempt to remake it in deferred

the way the fog is handled within the rtx version just loos so much better

but i can get it fairly close

[wintry lodge]

Fully redid the entire set of lighting. it progressively gets more white as the day progresses

its still a work in progress os the transitions could probably be a bit smoother

[visual plover]

I think the last screenshot is too white, it makes it look like it's artificial and not coming from the sun

[wintry lodge]

It's taken at noon. Noon time lighting is usually very white

[visual plover]

Eh maybe it's just what I prefer

Actually watching the time-lapse it looks a lot better

[lofty heath]

I love the third image

[civic basin]

Not the best looking screenshot, but it counts as a graphics showcase. Just a ruined portal during a late afternoon.

[gaunt sorrel]

It looks so delicious! If only the sky was just as good

[lofty heath]

I saw that The End has no lighting at all, are you going to add that?

[ripe island]

what

[lofty heath]

I will open Minecraft

end island

[wintry lodge]

We can't add lighting to things like that

[ripe island]

true

but we need the end to be brighter

and some cool the end sky customization

[gaunt sorrel]

What the villager doing?

[mellow inlet]

Might be getting ready to jump

[ripe island]

he was very sad

[civic basin]

Another screenshot that probably doesn't look good enough, but it's a showcase, and I am just doing these for fun anyways. Just a river with a birch forest. Luminous Dreams w.i.p.

[mellow inlet]

that honestly is a really nice screenshot

[lone nest]

I wish the reflections reflected the fog in the air

[civic basin]

Better on Bedrock birch forest with Luminous Dreams, along with a savanna village.

[wintry lodge]

Very nice!

[rancid zodiac]

wow that looks saucy

[cursive geyser]

Looks good!!

[pastel thicket]

YUMMYYYY

[mellow inlet]

Looks amazing!

[knotty badge]

Nice looking night

[cursive geyser]

Luminous Dreams with Better on Bedrock

Some extra ones with @civic basin <3

[glass bear]

AAAA WHY DOES IT LOOK SO CUUUUUTE

[civic basin]

Better on Bedrock and Luminous Dreams

[lofty heath]

what is better on bedrock?

[gaunt sorrel]

It's the addon Poggy made

[lofty heath]

Is this on the marketplace?

[gaunt sorrel]

No

[cedar stream]

Not yet

[lofty heath]

Luminous Dreams doesn't work in lastest beta, right?

[wintry lodge]

it works in latest beta

[pastel thicket]

Is this even minecraft at this point or did u just take a picture of some trees /j

[lofty heath]

I am greeted by errors when using the pack

[lone nest]

Make sure you are using the latest update of Luminous Dreams

[civic basin]

Just some fog.

[lofty heath]

there is only 1 download link

Weird water

[lone nest]

#1085656741636739102 message

[lofty heath]

yes, i downloaded it through mcpdl

and this is the better on bedrock server

[lone nest]

I'm unsure then

[lofty heath]

not the luminous dreams ^^

here

[lone nest]

That's the link where Luminous Dreams is ^^

That's their server with the latest updates

[lofty heath]

I already downloaded it 👍

(I didn't use "^^" being rude)

[lone nest]

This is version 0.6.0.1, the latest one is 0.6.1

[lofty heath]

oh, i see. is the mcpdl one out of date?

[lone nest]

Yes

[civic basin]

Is this really the chat to discuss this?

[lone nest]

nope

[lofty heath]

Minecraft feels empty now :-/

[rancid zodiac]

i can never play without deferred anymore either

at least not without 120fps

i need that “higher tech” feeling

[cursive geyser]

Luminous Dreams with Better on Bedrock

[wintry lodge]

mmmmmmmmmmmm raytracing

[ripe island]

finally fixed fog 😭

[gaunt sorrel]

Beautiful

[ripe island]

thank you! :D

[mellow inlet]

What map?

[wintry lodge]

It's called project midtown manhattan I think. It's on planet Minecraft. You will need to convert it from Java to Bedrock though

[mellow inlet]

chunkbase my beloved

I must return to you

[wintry lodge]

I wanna browse maps on PM. Theres more variety and honestly better options than what I can find on MCPEDL

[mellow inlet]

MCPEDL kinda stinks tho

[wintry lodge]

Yeah that's what I'm saying

In terms of maps and stuff there's just not very much good stuff

[mellow inlet]

Anything that’s quality tends to get yoinked by marketplace fellas, and anything that’s mid goes to CF/MCPEDL (map-wise).

[wintry lodge]

There's good stuff on the MP but I don't wanna buy the maps 😭

[mellow inlet]

real

the stampy’s lovely world map is on the MP and it’s great

looks really good with BetterRTX

[wintry lodge]

Ok yk what, I take back what I said, I'd buy that

[mellow inlet]

lmao

I bought it the moment is was announced basically

[wintry lodge]

10 years of Minecraft map is really good for RTX stuff too

[mellow inlet]

oh yeah

[wintry lodge]

I use that one a good amount

[mellow inlet]

the one I currently use is the Hermitcraft IX map

It’s awesome

[wintry lodge]

I can't find a download for it 😭

I looked

[mellow inlet]

Stampy’s?

look up 4J

[wintry lodge]

Hermitcraft

[mellow inlet]

oh

look up Hermitcraft

(In authors)

(They published their own map)

[wintry lodge]

Oh I'm stupid

Haha I looked at that site too

[mellow inlet]

lmao

[ripe island]

betterrtx

deferred

[visual plover]

I just noticed this but the leaves look so better on Java

Idk why
