HDR

For those of you not familiar with the HDR effect of the Source engine, here is a short clip of the effect.

HDR

HDR stands for High Dynamic Range, not Resoloution

Nezumi · 07-22-2008, 09:43 AM

I love HDR.
<3

Ihmhi · 07-22-2008, 09:51 AM

I'd make a HDR vid of one of Nezumi's maps but it would just be a white screen with some gunshots in the background.

Actually, a plain white screen might be darker...

Nezumi · 07-22-2008, 09:54 AM

Well, yea, the whole point of HDR is that things can be brighter than pure white.

And anyway if you average anticitizen and tiger you get a very normally lit map.

No, if you averaged them you would still get very bright light. Playing anticitizen makes me feel the need to claw my eyes out in pain...

Brighter than pure white??? Please tell me your secret!! I'd make a fortune with that!

Nuk3m · 07-22-2008, 06:47 PM

its a tint of yellow in the white, makes it looks more 'real'

I think what he means to say is here, check out how HDR looks in FF!

greenday5494 · 07-22-2008, 11:09 PM

listen to the commentary in lost coast, it explains everything

Yeah but seeing it in FF shows more than what it's technically capable of if you watch the lost coast vids.

Inceptor · 07-23-2008, 03:21 AM

Have you played maps with lots of snow in them improperly HDR'd?

Thats cause HDR isnt simple, it effects all lighting in the map, so that light entity will be brighter. most people do HDR last, which really messes with the lighting.

Looks beautiful. I can't wait to see this in the next patch.

**Elmo** · 07-23-2008, 11:33 PM

If I may say so myself... it is beautiful lol. Pretty much on the last compile now.. though I've said that for the past week and compiled it about 6 times more.

Pixel · 07-24-2008, 12:52 AM

Would annoy the hell out of me.
