Hi,
I've just pushed a change to fgdata that modifies the model-combined and model-
combined-deferred effects when running under Rembrandt.
This was done in order to be able to provide the same effects that are
available for transparent surfaces in the clasical pipeline for transparent
surfaces when running Rembrandt.
Those that want to enable reflection/bump effects for transparent surfaces
under
Rembrandt just need to create a local effect that inherits from Effects/model-
combined, and add at least the transparency include that can be found in the
the Docs/model-combined.eff/model-combined-transparent.eff template. (this is
needed for proper z-sorting of transparent/opaque surfaces in the classic
renderer).
If they want normalmap support too, then they need to add the "normalmap-
include" that can be found in the same Docs/model-combined.eff/model-combined-
transparent.eff template.
This change breaks current local effects that inherit from
Effects/model-combined-deferred,
due to a needed change of technique numbers. Thus, the local effects that
inherit from Effects/model-combined-deferred and use normalmaps need the
folowing change in order to restore them to a working state:
change
<technique n="8">
to:
<technique n="7">
Local effects inheriting from
Effects/model-combined
used on transparent surfaces do not need any adaptation.
Local effects inheriting from
Effects/model-combined
used on opaque surfaces need to be switched to inherit from
Effects/model-combined-deferred,
and modified according to the above recomandation if they use normalmaps.
Regards, and sorry for the minor(I hope) nuisance this change is causing.
