Some testers needed...

OpenGL Development
#1

Hi all !

According to this paper, I’ve finished implementing Parallax Mapping (also known as Offset Bump-Mapping)… It runs well on my computer & graphic card, but I would like some people to test it on there computer… Can you, please ?

The demo can be find here or on the website listed in my signature…

It needs shaders support (ARB_vertex_program & ARB_fragment_program) so it won’t run on older graphic cards, LWJGL 0.93 and the lwjgl-devil library (you can find a pre-compiled version here (dll for windows) because the defaut lwjgl package doesn’t include it (why ? I dunno)…

Here are the keys :
Up/Down : move the camera.
T : Change texture set.
L : toggle light moving on/off.
M : Set rendering mode (Bump-mapping or Parallax mapping). By default it’s Parallax Mapping (Nicer :P).

Thanks in advance ! (if you test it, please give me some infos about your graphic card ;))

PS: sorry, no webstart version at this time.

Got a “java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError”. Does it need Java 1.5?

as stated, you need DevIL installed - it is not included in lwjgl-0.93
you can get it here:
http://openil.sourceforge.net/download.php

note: I had to add -cp lwjgl.jar;lwjgl_util.jar; to the batfile to make it run

Looks great!

I’ll make a webstart version this late afternoon (it will be my first attempt to webstart) with a all-in-one package to avoid download hundreds of differents files…
