we cant adjust the transparency of water

[visual plover]

Oh bruh

‼️😔

[wintry lodge]

ive messed with the actual water texture and it made no difference

it looks like the water is just hardcoded

[visual plover]

What a shame

Would make it look so much better if it was just a bit more transparent

[wintry lodge]

but its very transparent. it only appears not transparent because of water surface normals

if i removed them youd see right through it

without any surface normal and just reflections

another reason you cant see very far underwater though is because the lighting just straight up doesnt load after like 8 blocks under water

pain 😭

[ripe island]

tbh deferred water is horribly transparent

[visual plover]

😡⁉️

[visual plover]

⁉️ elaborate

[ripe island]

it's just very transparent

If I could, I would make the water much more opaque than what it is now

[visual plover]

I kinda like it ngl

😔

‼️

[ripe island]

oh no

for me it's 🤢 🤮

[visual plover]

It only looks good to me because of how fast it fades

If it were less more opaque water would make more cents

[knotty badge]

Sm better

[knotty badge]

Woahh

[wet slate]

black fog

[wintry lodge]

and yes this is deferred.

[ripe island]

why would it not be deferred

[wintry lodge]

to be honest i meant to delete that text because its super corny

[ripe island]

deferred was always good

[wintry lodge]

there is a discord ping in this video. im deeply sorry

[split plover]

Only for pc and xbox
On mobile i get 3 fps in max setting with 50 resolution with 12 ram and snapdragon 8s gen 3💀💀

[ripe island]

When I said good i meant good looking

Not optimized

For me even 12 fps is fine 🤷‍♀️

PRIZMA ENTITY PBR HAS DROPPED

“only for a few entities”

[sweet knot]

looks great

[wintry lodge]

Thanks!

[wintry lodge]

adjusting various fog heights and densities to allow for better atmospherics while having minimal impact on the sky

having much clearer skies while having fog just looks so good

[wintry lodge]

some water adjustments

[unborn coral]

Ik this was a year ago, sorry, but do you remember what pack these were taken with?

[ripe island]

What the sigma

[ripe island]

My own

[unborn coral]

Ty

[ripe island]

It's called prizma deferred

[unborn coral]

Ohh okay. I've saved it on mcpedl already I think

It looks amazing thanks

[lofty heath]

nothing built lasts forever

[civic basin]

Attempting to rework my deferred pack completely by just redoing my sky, lighting, and water. This is some of my progress. I plan to spend a lot of time on this without rushing anything. @wintry lodge was kind enough to make me a base to work from. I also have some sort of precise keyframe setup that makes my life easier. I am open to feedback, thanks!!

[visual plover]

Looks fantastic! Just wish reflections had a farther range 😔

[pure lagoon]

Folks - @ me replies to the best showcase screenshots you've seen using Deferred lately!

I've been off on vacation, so I need to get caught up with all the latest 🙂

[wintry lodge]

@pure lagoon I've done some really cool stuff with the sky

Idk how but I managed to get the sky to have a multi color blend at sunrise. It's super cool

[lone nest]

Hope you enjoyed the break!

[wintry lodge]

^

[pure lagoon]

show me!

[wintry lodge]

It's somehow a light blue, orange and dark blue all at once

Had no idea this was possible

[pure lagoon]

These are SO good! And you're only using the deferred features here?

[ripe island]

Yess ☺️

Only deferred and my deferred pack

[pure lagoon]

Absolutely amazing.

[ripe island]

Thank you!! 😁 Worked on it really hard

[pure lagoon]

And it shows! Congrats!

[wintry lodge]

Ooh @pure lagoon I forgot these too!

[pure lagoon]

So good!!

Now I need to see the latest from Poggy

[civic basin]

@pure lagoon

I've been busy doing some reworks

[pure lagoon]

I saw this! Got me very excite! 😄 I want to see MOAR

[civic basin]

I prefer to showcase the final product 🥲

[grizzled wagon]

I see they fixed entity emissive

[wintry lodge]

its always worked. but uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ive done some fixes of my own

[grizzled wagon]

I didnt say it never worked. I meant that it was super bright.

[wintry lodge]

ohhhhhhhhh

yeah i did fixes of my own for that

this was before

the problem i guarantee you is how tonemap operators are handling white clip values at this moment. the pixels hit that white clip cutoff point so quick that they just cant get brighter or appear pure white when they shouldnt

which makes emissives (even on blocks) look fairly bad

these problems are completely avoided if you darken the texture itself

with any tonemap. not just aces.

its just the issue is heavily exaggerated with aces

but after these fixes, most of the emissives end up looking way more natural

[grizzled wagon]

👎 Modifying the renderer folder.

[wintry lodge]

i didnt

this is all vanilla

i went into photoshop and used the HSL filter and lowered the texture lightness levels

[grizzled wagon]

What's this referring to?

[grizzled wagon]

Gotcha.

Thats what I did for my blocks as well. Except I use a pythin script to do that.

[wintry lodge]

it gives much better results on emissives

especially if using the aces tonemap where they all become pure white

[wintry lodge]

using a much softer horizon color now instead

[wintry lodge]

adjusted night sky

[ripe island]

@pure lagoon forgot about this

I should make a folder for my screenshots

[maiden grove]

Modified deferred bloom, left is vanilla, right is custom

[ripe island]

i like the star shape

[maiden grove]

It does kinda look like convolution bloom for smaller objects, but it also makes bloom square in shape for larger ones

[ripe island]

:c

wish we had lens flare for light sources

[lofty heath]

flim tone mapping

I've seen some cows and their skin looks smoother, maybe the effect will be better if you reduce the poles (deepest pixel and highest pixel, I don't know the name)

Why am I replying to old messages?

[wintry lodge]

The way I saw the heightmap being used wasn't exactly to "give height to the skin" but more as a way to give it some texture rather than being fully flat

That's how I've used heightmaps on things like bricks. It's more meant to be very soft to show a bit of texturing rather than actually showing height. And when I want to show height I make it stronger

[ripe island]

yess. If i wanted to show height i would make it much stronger

besides it will be almost invisible during gameplay

[rancid zodiac]

the right side is so gucci

[wintry lodge]

updating sunset coloring

[wintry lodge]

Daytime sky

I should try to imitate other planets in deferred

[wintry lodge]

and i begin the journey. trying to make mars. utilizing some real life images as well as adding a bit of exxageration to it for visual style

[rancid zodiac]

martian

[wintry lodge]

taking some extremely WILD guesses on this one as well, theres really not that many reference images

(yes the blue sun is correct. you can look it up)

[wintry lodge]

Fixed my horror film preset from having the custom fog files loading correctly. (Latest version significantly tones down the contrast)

[glacial grove]

Is this out?

[wintry lodge]

yes and no. not available on mcpedl yet

[cedar stream]

[pure lagoon]

Don't bee evil

[cursive geyser]

I love that one

[wintry lodge]

working on a cool transition for nighttime

as the sun gets lower, the sky will get darker

i have it pretty synced up

I do need to adjust a few transition frames though

[rancid zodiac]

BEE PBR

[rancid zodiac]

ANGY WOLFERS PBR

[wintry lodge]

this might be the smoothest im gonna get it for now

[wintry lodge]

formal request to make stars emissive 🙏

[rancid zodiac]

TRANSITION BUFF

glowing stars yes do it

[wintry lodge]

would be the last thing to complete the nighttime fr

[wintry lodge]

slight adjustments to daytime sky. made the zenith a bit more blue

that sky transition in actual gameplay is quite smooth

oh jeez the bitrate at the start😭

I don’t know why blur immediately made it look so realistic

Looks great tho

[cursive geyser]

Ooooo!!!

[wintry lodge]

not heightmaps

[rancid zodiac]

this is not heightmaps?

you liar

[wintry lodge]

nope

high res normals

[rancid zodiac]

wow

you really did a good job then

me likey

[wintry lodge]

adobe substance designer my beloved

goated tool

but doing normals now lets me add nice details to other things like glass or ice. i can now add like scratches and stuff to glass etc

without messing up the base texture

[grizzled wagon]

Dang.

[light holly]

👩‍🍳🔥🥘

[wintry lodge]

messing around with normals and glass

[mellow inlet]

Also did some funky stuff with glass

[wintry lodge]

Introducing Vanilla Reforged! Enhanced vanilla textures with a new twist! Upscaled textures(not all are done and some are VERY funky so those are still default) to 128x. High pbr details, heightmap-like normals and more!

[lone nest]

You should definitely do it for rtx

[wintry lodge]

its in the works

[lone nest]

W

[wintry lodge]

i wanna do some cool normal map things for the rtx version. like custom glass refraction normals etc

[lone nest]

Ooo that sounds nice

[wintry lodge]

theres so much i can do with 128x. heck i could layer high detail normals for like scratching etc, over the heightmap normals too

might test this with like iron blocks

[wintry lodge]

very rough and scuffed demo of what i may try doing in the future, just WAY finer tuned

adjusted iron block pbr. this is so good

Thanks! Looking to get a proper non test release out relatively soon

It's in feedback testing right now

whoa, the sky is looking great

[lofty heath]

new banner?

[rancid zodiac]

holy moly

i just might start playing using your pack

an actual deferred survival i mean

[rancid zodiac]

the true crown will be for whoever can get me Deferred trailer-like PBR textures

quick question: will trying to strip down some random trailer-like textures rtx pack down to the pbr block textures and then loading it with a deferred pack maybe work?

asking for a friend

[ripe island]

made new water

[rancid zodiac]

i will kiss anyone who gives me pbr with textures like these

[wintry lodge]

BetterRTX

[rancid zodiac]

truly better

[wintry lodge]

Trying a cool "frosted glass" effect. Will likely tune it back but it gives a cool look to the glass

[glacial grove]

I love your pack

[glacial grove]

Plague pbr is soo good too🥹

[glacial grove]

Plague pbr recorded on a phone

[ripe island]

Thank you 🥰

[ripe island]

if kiss is a huge sum of money then sure pookie /j

[rancid zodiac]

[wintry lodge]

cool hybrid like normal thingy for slime (RTX) it merges a heightmap with a more realistic bumpy like texture

and since this is just normals, the base texture is unnafected

[light holly]

interesting
