Soft Particles

SoftParticles, based on his code: http://www.joeforte.net/projects/soft-particles/

Requires using float texture (I didnt make a check if it is unavailable, but has to do).



I made SoftParticlesProcessor and adding it to the viewport and using “Shaders/SoftParticle.j3md” instead of “Common/MatDefs/Misc/Particle.j3md”

will render them differently.



Code rar can be found at http://haima.dy.fi/jme and go to files dir. Can’t hotlink files!

@larda , can i put your code to the shader library?

I also can set you as a project developer.





Or, @nehon , could it be in the jme core?

Nice!

looks like it does quite a big hit on the framerate though.



@mifth i have to test it, but yeah yeah why not, this feature would fit in the core.

Great! Now I might not have to implement this myself :slight_smile:

@mifth sure, add it and do everything with it.



@nehon Btw, it is faster when using Format.RGB16F instead of RGB32F (in SoftParticlesProcessor.java at line 28 or so)

@larda , I added your shader to the shader library! Thank you a lot!

Was @larda’s softParticle shader added to jme core?

Yes, see TestSoftParticles

Actually, it’s not his, but yes there is a soft particle system.

Also the API is not great right now so i may change at some point.
