-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Hi people. You should take a look at sdk_postprocess that valve included in the sdk. Take a look also at "authoring shaders". I have already finished my NV and it looks great using shaders. The idea is to render the scene to a texture, which your shader will use, convert it to greyscale, apply an amplification factor (multiply) and double or so the green component. You can improve it adding a noise texture. Think of a shader as a material, so you have to apply this NV material to a full-screen quad. As I have told you before, the key is in sdk_postprocess.
