Cinematic Effects in Source

Justin Meisse

More groovy stuff for the Source engine: linkatude

The parts I like the most are depth of field and motion blur, niiiiiice!

ElysiumGX

Color correction is oh so very shweet!

kleinluka

nice stuff

MoP

Oh, nifty! Looks great.

See thats what "next gen" is all about, making your shit look as good as movies by useing the same things they use but in real time. They dont have super high res models, or overdone normal maps, they have full screen shaders that give it the look of a movie. You dont need meshsmooth to make the kids go "Oh oh i want that!" just enough shaders to make your ears bleed.

That does look very, very cool indeed!

That trailer looks pretty good, but do you think the cinematic effects will look right from the first person perspective?

neolith

Depends on how an artist chooses to use them I think...

I charge anyone in doubt of the cinematic joys of motion blur to play Shadow of the Colossus. Then get back to me

I wonder how depth of field will choose what to focus on; but I trust'em anyways. ...and the trailer looks aweome.

I'm expecting a fixed distance DOF like in Wind Waker.

maybe if DOD was a 3rd person game, but I dont see why it should be so difficult to see anything through your eyes. Colour correction, depth of field or even motion blur is all pausable, but grain? and blurriness, thats just too much to swallow.
