Title: OORefFlare - Enhanced Lens Flare
Post by: tcpp on December 09, 2009, 10:01:44 AM
OORefFlare enhances OpenArena's lens flare.

It has two components. lensReflection1 is the clear and sharp reflection,
which is having edge and doesn't needs much fillrate.

lensReflection2 is the very dim and soft reflection,
which isn't having edge and needs much fillrate. (defaultly disabled)
This makes the screen unclear like lens flare in the real camera.

Why? I think it's pretty. Sometimes you cannot see from the flares, but it's not a problem for casual play.

As i said in the moved post nobody finds now: its not the flare, so my "video makes me sad :(" was offtopic too

It looks really nice, if this makes it to openarena, ill sure use it for my youtube videos that i make for OA, but i dont think i will be playing with this turned on.
btw, will there be a var to control how much glare you get, it looked a bit overdone, but maybe that is because i was paying extra attention to it.

BTW i dont wear glasses, maybe this looks more convincing to somebody that does.

my complements and respect go to you tcpp

:D Not quite.  If my glasses gave me lens flares like that I'd go insane. Only on odd occasions would lens flares be really noticeable to anyone wearing glasses.
