Procedural graphics entries are allowed as long as it is one single file <16kb no animations allowed, [...]

Actually I don't 100% understand that rule.
From my understanding this says: If I generate my graphics content procedurally in any way - I may only submit a 16kb file generating a single picture.

Do you mean by that rule:
"In case you want to commit a static picture - it has to be procedurally generated and may not contain any kind of animation."?

Please write something new for the challenge, no previously released stuff.

In case I released static work in progress screenshot of some binary *cough* is that already "previously released stuff"?

but if you've used the ready made features of render-monkey then you haven't really coded it

That's a bit of an insult to me
Basically rendermonkey is a shader CODE editor and I am pretty sure I am not ripping rendermonkey samples

Anyways - If I enter something you will get a 32 bit crinkler compressed windows binary rendering at HD720 + a nice kkapture compressed with Xvid.

And of course - the binary wont contain any hardware or error checking/handling - so either you run it on proper hardware/software or it will most probably just crash.

Shockwave: Why shouldn't it get that many votes?
What's the difference? Actually entering with a Rendermonkey project file is worth 1000 times more than with a binary.
Everybody can understand exactly what you are doing and have a look at your code.
I mean, I can of course plug in all the shaders into some nice tiny framework (which I have.) - but then it would be only of the "directly visible value" (and I wont release the source in that case.)

Something I am currently working on using Rendermonkey (Blur, Glow, FXAA3, AO, SSS, Silhouettes, ... ):

Hmmm great an "everything is allowed" challenge
Can I enter with a Rendermonkey project file?

Thanks
Seems I killed the conversation here.

Just go ahead and play around with the stuff, keep posting screenshots and asking questions!

Nice
Keep it coming!


Posted that one on pouet already, but that's the last thing I'll post in public for a while.
I'm working on "something".

I use FX Composer and Rendermonkey.
FX Composer works better with HLSL and doesn't crash that often...
And for some reason I like Rendermonkey to archive the stuff.
