I wonder if it’s possible with OSL to code a complex shader that can build interiors of buildings at render time ? This is a technique that’s been used for years now in video games and movies to quickly generate interiors for scenes with lots of buildings. The idea is simple : the shader is assign…

just out of curiosity how do the settings work exactly ? I would expect that if I have a box and I set the roomcount to 1,1,1 I get to see 1 room stretched to whatever size my box is ? I guess that’s not how an osl shader works ?

It could probably, at least it’s possible with OSL, but this setup ignores any UV coordinates and instead works with XYZ object/local space coordinates. Like a 3D procedural noise map would. So basically the room size in units would be the same for a large or a small box (if it’s not scaled), the l…

Hey Patrick! Yeah this would’ve been nice on Star Trek. : )

ah ok, I see, but in that case, it would be superusefull to have a roomsize setting or something per axis. right now, it’s either rather hard or undoable (it could be me) to get the amount of rooms you would want/expect the default size of the room appears to be 1.50mx1.50mx1.50m while the atlas t…

I’m used to create a plane (or dup the back side of glass) and map that with a UV Map to face, and have a multi sub object with different interior maps. I can really easily have a bunch of different variety on the bld. Haven’t tried yet, but the whole point of this OSL shader is to blend between m…

Hey Stan, No, the point is to simulate depth (rooms) where there is none. So moving around a cube it would appear as though there are rooms in there, moving with correct parallax and perspective, even though there are only six polys. Though it does switch maps depending on which side you look at i…

Hey Rens, I understand the concept of what it should look like visually, I was wondering if the technical part was about blending between different maps depending on the angle of view to simulate what we have inside. For exemple, this is one of our many interior we build to simulate viewing angle …

Please excuse my reopening an older thread. But I’m curious if this OSL tex will work in Maya and what kind of changes I may need to make to the OSL? The most obvious, I guess is that Max uses Z+ instead of Y+ for up. I am attempting to pipe the OSL file through a VRayTexOSL node, into a VRayLight…

Good points, I’ll see if something like that could be built in. Glad it helps!
