Re: Animating Normal maps to achieve rain drops in 3DS Max or Unity3D
Yes I should do something via script. However I didn't use the Unity's particle system for it, because I had used it for this effect before but I was not successful, I then modified the 2D Particle's script so I should do something with that script. -
Re: Animating Normal maps to achieve rain drops in 3DS Max or Unity3D
Say if this is done with textures, then how is the game environment affecting all the raindrops. It must be a long algorithm for the effect, and probably take a lot of iterations to finally have that realistic effect. With physics particles however, each raindrop is already a particle, and they get affected by physics, so… -
Re: Animating Normal maps to achieve rain drops in 3DS Max or Unity3D
Oh one thing, I didn't use particle emitters. I made a script for spawning actual rigid bodies inside a rectangle shape. Don't know if this makes any difference. Maybe the only difference is that then I can control them individually like destroy the fallen ones. -
Re: Animating Normal maps to achieve rain drops in 3DS Max or Unity3D
Yes, I did the same thing, I spawned them by script, I meant generally call them particle emitter. I really thank you for your help, will do some thing in the next days and share results here, I was wondering if you could explain a bit more about the craetion processes of the metaball shader. -
Re: Animating Normal maps to achieve rain drops in 3DS Max or Unity3D
I made a script for spawning/destroying the physics spheres so I can maintain any amount of spheres at the same time. I used 150 for this video. It would be also possible to destroy every spheres which has been fallen down from the glass. I also added the windshield wiper to interact with. [ame="… -
Re: Animating Normal maps to achieve rain drops in 3DS Max or Unity3D
I've added the flipbook effect to the shader and also added a "switch". So when it rains, a script enabels the switch and the rain effect appears. Here is a sample, the rain texture is too low quality but once you use a better quality texture, it'll be great. (http://gifyu.com/image/ZXc) Animated normals and dynamic dirt… -
Re: Animating Normal maps to achieve rain drops in 3DS Max or Unity3D
Well hello again, I just gave the shader to someone to make it "Compute shader" - Which means I wanted it to be more GPU-side and therefore it'd use CPU less - But to the time, it didn't go well so I decided to update the shader and the scripts to optimize it. And here is the result so far. So far so good (59 fps while… -
Re: Animating Normal maps to achieve rain drops in 3DS Max or Unity3D
Thanks Eric, Actually I actually should thank you for that 2D Particle again. Here is a new problem, when the car goes faster than 20 Km/h, it looks like it goes over 400 Km/h. (Please have a look at the image below) I don't know what to do for that, although I've increased frictions, changed weights and added forces via… -
Re: Animating Normal maps to achieve rain drops in 3DS Max or Unity3D
Well... before I start doing anything, I simulated the particles in RealFlow because Obscura and Kryzon just clarified about the window shaders but the meta balls are still mysterious for me, And I thought I was in the best way to make those meta balls, I then imported the simulated meta ball particles into 3DS Max, but I… -
Re: Animating Normal maps to achieve rain drops in 3DS Max or Unity3D
Really thanks Obscura!! Unfortunately ShaderForge doesn't have a node for converting height map to normal map, so I did it without this node (shown below), Also one weird thing is that ShaderForge doesn't have Distortion, so I used refraction option but I can't connect the refraction to the multiply node, do you know any…
