  2. Multiple Render Targets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_Render_Targets

    These textures can then be used as inputs to other shaders or as texture maps applied to 3D models. Introduced by OpenGL 2.0 and Direct3D 9, MRT can be invaluable to real-time 3D applications such as video games. Before the advent of MRT, a programmer would have to issue a command to the GPU to draw the 3D scene once for each render target ...

  3. Godot (game engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godot_(game_engine)

    Godot (/ ˈ ɡ ɒ d oʊ / GOD-oh) [a] is a cross-platform, free and open-source game engine released under the permissive MIT license.It was initially developed in Buenos Aires by Argentine software developers Juan Linietsky and Ariel Manzur [6] for several companies in Latin America prior to its public release in 2014. [7]

  4. Physically based rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physically_based_rendering

    Even though this is a rough, opaque surface, more than just diffuse light is reflected from the brighter side of the material, creating small highlights, because "everything is shiny" in the physically-based rendering model of the real world. Tessellation is used to generate an object mesh from a heightmap and normal map, creating greater detail.

  5. Texture splatting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_splatting

    Example of texture splatting, except an additional alphamap is applied. In computer graphics, texture splatting is a method for combining different textures.It works by applying an alphamap (also called a "weightmap" or a "splat map") to the higher levels, thereby revealing the layers underneath where the alphamap is partially or completely transparent.

  6. OpenGL Shading Language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenGL_Shading_Language

    The set of APIs used to compile, link, and pass parameters to GLSL programs are specified in three OpenGL extensions, and became part of core OpenGL as of OpenGL Version 2.0. The API was expanded with geometry shaders in OpenGL 3.2, tessellation shaders in OpenGL 4.0 and compute shaders in OpenGL 4.3. These OpenGL APIs are found in the extensions:

  7. Deferred shading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deferred_shading

    [1] In the field of 3D computer graphics, deferred shading is a screen-space shading technique that is performed on a second rendering pass, after the vertex and pixel shaders are rendered. [2] It was first suggested by Michael Deering in 1988. [3] On the first pass of a deferred shader, only data that is required for shading computation is ...

  8. Shading language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shading_language

    The shader assembly language in Direct3D 8 and 9 is the main programming language for vertex and pixel shaders in Shader Model 1.0/1.1, 2.0, and 3.0. It is a direct representation of the intermediate shader bytecode which is passed to the graphics driver for execution.

  9. High-Level Shader Language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-Level_Shader_Language

    HLSL programs come in six forms: pixel shaders (fragment in GLSL), vertex shaders, geometry shaders, compute shaders, tessellation shaders (Hull and Domain shaders), and ray tracing shaders (Ray Generation Shaders, Intersection Shaders, Any Hit/Closest Hit/Miss Shaders). A vertex shader is executed for each vertex that is submitted by the ...
