  Hey there Gigatron

  I tested it and the performance is definitely much better. However, if there are more than 9 or 10 stones on screen, my fps drops from 60 to somewhere around 49. I'm running it on a nvidia GTX 560 with an old i7 and 6 gigs of ram.

  For maximum speed on C2 side , try to make little sprite like 32*32 or 64*64 block and use scale on events.

  With this way you can show more stones on screen but with low quality.

  In this example i have removed, starfield, explosion fx , and reduced stone sprite to 8x8. Then

  if i use random scale like 0.1+random(0.5) .. it's working well.

  Needs something with exaggerated specular highlights.

  Something like Photoshop's "Plastic Wrap" effect.

  Would be a nice shader all on its own.

  Ok , can you try this shader please ?

  Or : https://www.shadertoy.com/view/4tjSDt

  Or a forked version of mine with acceleration but rework needed, this mean you must wait 1 or 2 week.

  cool effect.. and I like the star moving..how is that done? is it processor intensive?

  Yes it's use some Noise Algorithms functions, but this one is a little bit

  faster ..http://gigatron3k.free.fr/html5/C2/FX/dstars/

  Imagine since the future of C2 announced 1 Year + 2 month; so let's predict the status with probabilities.

  Average: 50 lines of code each days= ~19750 lines. The Result: not finished yet.

  But we can expect beta after 20000 lines of code.. This mean july 2016...

  This is how i see the future/

  ps: However, no one here has yet exploited C2 at 100%.

  Do you provide the files for the effect or is this still a WIP ?

  If it is not finished/publicly available I prefer to keep it out of the Effects list and What you may have missed "recap", I hope you understand why.

  Kyatric

  Thanks, ok for this ; i will publish it soon.

  I really like the stone effect. I could see it being a pretty useful addition . Thanks as always for your phenomenal work!

  Some questions:

  Would we be able to alter the geometry, hue, or rotation (angle, and speed) of the stones?

  My fps was around 29, if this was finished I take it that this would improve?

  ultrafop

  Partially yes, rotation angle speed. Geometry ... must see... Playing with radius and displacement variables give a bit differents

  stones. Look the example post.

  I think with this shader we can make your request ...

  I will finish this for you next week, sure if you like it..

  OK this time i have done some nice fx from TDM another shadertoy's master.

  Wet stone is the original shader.

  The goal is using this fx on space games like meteors. Please read this following,

  porting those shaders take my time the reason of word Wip is there. So i will finish it if

  the request is more than 10.

  Hope this stones not fall to the earth... like apophis .

  Here is a quick live example space shooter:

  Okey this shader is now finalized and released.. ! with some params.. colors rotation etc..

  Hi,

  I'm puzzled how to recreate a sort of this effect

  https://thecreatorsproject-images.vice.com/content-images/contentimage/no-slug/a6f224a3a81e7e139a4de96259a413e6.jpg

  To make a pseudo-perspective terrain with 2D "flat" element on the ground that "stand up" giving a nice pseudo-3D effect.

  With a quad deformation (with mode7 or with Gigatroneffect) I achieved that

  

  (attached capx with .fx file http://risingstorage.blob.core.windows. ... ective.zip )

  But as you can see I have difficulty to set the Size and X position of "stand" object :

  http://risingstorage.blob.core.windows. ... index.html

  How I can do that? Maybe in a totally different way?

  tatogame

  Why don't you use 2d PlatformerFx .. I like master Rojohound (maths formula ) but here no formula is needed.

  Take a look : http://gigatron3k.free.fr/html5/C2/3dsi ... ation.capx

  Gl fx disabled on editor, 2d platformer fx was used on perspective layer.. Depth param set to 1...

  you ill understand quickly, all object are moved in persperctive layer...
