Hi Antiro,> Hi Sebastian,
So I screwed up on both the color clearing and the depth writing, I tried to
disable both is follows.
On the cameras:
Code:
//Disable depth buffer writing
osg::ref_ptr<osg::Depth> depth = new osg::Depth(osg::Depth::LESS,0,1,false);
camera->getOrCreateStateSet()->setAttribute(depth);
//Disable writing to color buffer
GLbitfield mask = 0;
camera->setClearMask(mask);
The result was that (as expected) the geometry became extremely bright within a
few frames (as I had forgotten to clear the output texture in between frames),
but unexpectedly still from only a single light source. After I had fixed the
texture clearing in between frames the result was the same as before: Only the
result of a single lighting pass is visible.
I verified that this is the LAST pass, so it seems like the results of previous
passes are overwritten instead of blended?
If you're using multiple passes the first pass needs to clear the buffer
and all consecutive passes need to simply blend into it. Did you enable
blending in the camera state set?
The reason I am using multiple passes is because I want to support an arbitrary
(run time determined) number of light sources. Hence I can not just load a
bunch of light sources into the uniforms of a single shader
So you're not doing deferred lighting? Usually one does blend all the
lighting contributions to one texture by rendering all lights as boxes,
spheres etc to limit the area in the lighting texture the light can
contribute to using viewspace-calculations. There are tons of papers and
blogs on how to do this.
Each light therefore is rendered in the same camera adding its
contribution by simply rendering its hull-volume and carrying the light
information in a bunch of uniforms per light. Since you have the
depth-buffer (and therefore the viewspace/worldspace geometry
coordiantes per fragment) you can calculate the light-geometry distance
per fragment and therefore the light contribution.
If you have any other ideas of why my problems persist (or if I messed up with
disabling color clearing/depth writing) please let me know!
Again: Try to create a minimal example! It's rather tedious to pull
information out of someone's head in order to get the possible problems.
Cheers
Sebastian
Thank you!
