Woah those are nice.

I have a question, posted in the MGE thread, this seems more alive. Here we go.

Hey guys.

I've noticed in the screen thread that the shaders are awesome, and the textures look like their out of a modern day game.

I've been messing with shaders lately, and I'm terrible at it. Can anyone post what their's is?

And I've seen a lot of blur...Is that MGE or Photoshop?

Also, Sunbeams. I want them. But can't get them to work. Any help?

So....I went for a little stroll around the Ascadian Isles →

Still tweaking the texture and it isn't animated, I am not much of an animator. :S


I tweaked Vurts Parasol textures and modified the mapping on the models a bit.


Shaders:

Sharpen
VarBlur
HLSLvignette
ImprovedWaterCaustics06b
Knx_SSAO_v09
ColorTemp
DX9 HLSL HDR 2
Saturate

So much awesomeness in one post. The SS never looked better!

Please make him available someday!!!

Is it real? If not, I will gladly write the shader end.

PS. PK is working on a friendlier texture hooking mechanism for shaders, it is possible to deal with multiple texture files for shaders soon.

PPS. If you are working on the magicka, fatigue script of the UI shader, I have a little request:

I want to add fading to it. There is no reason for it to active at all times. An auto fade feature would be great. In shader it is very easy to add a 0-1 opacity code.
Also like all parts of Morrowind UI except bars, it would be really nice to a shortkey to activate-deactivate it on demand.

Haha, nope. Not yet, anyway. It's just an overlay shader. But, it is entirely possible to make it real. Even with the buttons and everything. Or at least I think it's possible. I'm not sure about the compass. Should I add it to my to-do list?

Great news! That'll definitely help.

Sure, I'll try adding fading. I'm a stickler for a clean screen. :wink_smile: How would you want it implemented?
*The entire HUD fade away only on the condition of having full health/fatigue/magicka,
*Individual parts of the HUD fade when at full health/fatigue/magicka,
*The HUD fades even when not at full H/F/M, but doesn't entirely disappear (~50% opacity?) unless healed.

I'll implement the upgrades from my shader chain mod to, too, so you can hotkey it and turn it on/off with a key press. I wish MGE had some ability to turn off the HUD. It would solve all the problem with the TM command. I used to play http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/9817/mgescreenshot40.jpg http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/1286/mgescreenshot22.jpg back when shaders still overwrote the HUD. I'll ask in the thread.

Oh, and did I mention the http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=472775&id=8412? :disguise:

You don't need a script to do the compass. Eyevec must be enough to do it.

I know about shader chain, it is what I use when testing the UI shader. Thanks for that great tool.

*Individual parts of the HUD fade when at full health/fatigue/magicka,
*The HUD fades even when not at full H/F/M, but doesn't entirely disappear (~50% opacity?) unless healed.

There is no restriction, no reason not to make it individual parts. Although, crescents will look too thin if separated.
In addition to full or 50 opacity. If something is going on with the part, they can have less opacity. For a warrior character, he/she can even never see the magicka star.

Also my suggestions thread has some ideas on a different hud system, 3 color hud system. Where there is two limits: daily limits and regeneration limits. That could use some additional fading.

But I would need some help to make a full functional shader based UI mod. I mean we have to learn how to make a full UI system. It will be hard. But we can do mouse cursors, transparent crosshairs... we can do anything.

Hey nice pics, thx!

Just released New Gnisis 1.0 so go & grab it at PES

[Zoe Ratcliffe]

Welp, finally got Morrowind up and running again.

This is my first 'proper' attempt at MGE + distant land in a long time, but so far I'm pretty happy with it:

http://s784.photobucket.com/albums/yy128/Charonte_/Morrowind/?start=20

A lot of those are just me screwing with the depth of field shader, I didn't like the way it looked initially and so I tweaked it a littled. Not that I had a clue what I was doing

[Steeeph]

My first photos with MGE of Seyda Neen. My draw distance is 10 and fog draw distance set to 9 and tweaked weather fog (it seems more of a haze effect than fog draw distance). Shaders are Colortemp, SSAO, DoF, Sunshaft & trueBloom.

Daytime - sight distance greater than nightime thunderstorm below - can see town fogged/blurred in background

Yes! Please! I love Daggerfall! That's the first game I fell in love with and I would love to be able to play morrowind with the Daggerfall thing with fully functional buttons and compas! Please Skaeps!

After migrating (installing a new one) my game to a new PC, i can finally run MGE with obscene cool DistandLand settings.

It;s the first time I really experienced Morrowind like that!

After finding the scrolls of Icarian flight, i jumped around just to see the marvelous Land in one go!

But I need a few pointer how to set up the shader chain order (and what shaders to use) so i too can enjoy decent HDR and Sun-shafts.
Since it's new install, I use the recent MGE.

Andy advice is welcome.

It's great, isn't it? B) There's some great shaders at the http://mgeshaderlibrary.wikispaces.com/Shaders. Knu's Depth of Field and SSAO come with the new MGE versions, most screenshots are taken with either trueBloom or GIMP-HDR-Bloom, and here's http://www.speedyshare.com/586255660.html. They're all at the shader library page except for sun-shafts.

The MGE thread recommends:

Recommended shader order (for any combination of these shader types):
HDR, SSAO, Depth of Field, Sun Rays, Bloom

*Note that HDR here means 'HDR without bloom.' If you're going to use truebloom or GIMP-HDR-bloom, then you'll want to put those last, since they're both.

I was testing vtastek's cloud shadows shader, and before my Morrowind decided to take a vacation and crash spectacularly, I got a great shot of a great sunset. It amazes me that a game like Morrowind, not Gears of War or Mass Effect or Halo, keeps pulling me back after so long simply to gaze at the world. Anyway, ignore the red numbers in the corner. you know you're on the verge of failure when your programs begin to malfunction. :cryvaultboy: Also the funky sun texture.

Also, http://img541.imageshack.us/img541/6939/mgescreenshot755.png. Cool effect, though. Thanks, vtastek.

[OTTO]

*Note that HDR here means 'HDR without bloom.' If you're going to use truebloom or GIMP-HDR-bloom, then you'll want to put those last, since they're both.

The later versions of trueBloom, after 3 or so, don't have HDR in them.

If you're using trueBloom, though, I generally recommend not using HDR. It's setup to do some color-balancing internally and can enhance a lot of colors (particularly sunsets, turn it on high-quality and checkout the sunsets, you get some great soft colors). HDR can wash colors out and reverse those effects. I do have a new HDR shader in the works that can look better, but with Morrowind's LDR render, it won't work perfectly (it can cause some oddities with RGB8 render targets, but works fine on RGB16f targets).

Something I recently learned, though, is with a little bit of compensation (which may or may not be needed), running HDR after bloom may look better. There's no guarantees, especially not with the current shaders, but the proper method is to run bloom, then generate HDR info, then do any tonal compression on the screen. MGE calculates HDR/avglum before running bloom, so it may change, but you can always try HDR after bloom and see what happens. Running HDR first helps with some aspects of SSAO and helps compensate with MGE's fake HDR system.

may I ask what happened with this one. is it going to be released someday?
