What you describe sounds like it can be achieved using the built in fbm function.

Wrote functions to convert between the RBG and HSL color models. Using HSL, one can perform color shifts and other effects. :) ############################################################################ # HSL to RGB functions (from http://www.geekymonkey.com/Programming/CSharp/RGB2HSL_HSL2RGB.htm) ...

Hi neo0. I assume you meant ISL tutorials, and yes, I plan on writing a few of them. :)

A few tests illustrating the accuracy of the previewer. The first public release has been tentatively set to Nov. 7. :)

Infix notation is optional anyway, and you can mix infix and non-infix in ISL programs. :)

Coming Soon: ISLPreviewer

Hi everyone. Over the past few weeks I've been working on a Java application for developing shader programs for Indigo. At first glance, writing your own shaders seems extremely difficult. http://www.indigorenderer.com/joomla/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4428 Using OpenGL, this application will interpret I...

Tanner, looks really nice! Great start! Is each blade of grass a separate mesh? If so, you might want to consider a slightly different approach, similar to this one: http://www.indigorenderer.com/joomla/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1225&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 which uses planes and alpha-mapped te...

It's not a modifier. In the 3dview window, it's under Object->Clear/Apply->Make Duplicates Real

You might want to try using dupliverts since you're using blender. If you have a group of grass blades in a single object, you can "snap" them to each vertex of your subdivided plane. Then, you can "make real" on your grass blades, randomly select them, and rotate them to add randomness.

Well, BbB mentioned that he had to rotate the scene to get the lighting right. Perhaps I'll try that. Thanks for the feedback. :)

This is an .exr map. It's the same "kitchen" map BbB used in his Pastry scene. So, it looks too warm?

Thanks Kram. The chocolate is supposed to be syrup, which would harden somewhat (but not completely) when cold. I agree that the tile texture isn't right, so that's next on my list to fix.

Use the RGB values as coefficients and the gain as a multiplier. For 504.994, enter .504994 and use a gain of 1000.

Thanks pixie and ZomB. Pixie, I'll upload the floor texture to the MatDB eventually. :) ZomB, thanks for the suggestions. Instead of dripping chocolate, perhaps it should be smeared down the side of the slice? What do you think would look better? I haven't really played around with more advanced ren...
