Opacity in shader

@Wyldanimal

Can you enlighten me a little as to the code in a (fairly simple) shader?

I have downloaded @Calgon Carousel_1_12, and tried to understand the shader holdname3a.fsh.
It would simplify a lot of my permanent name code which I adopted from @TheEmu many moons ago.
However, it does not appear possible for me to increase the opacity of the permanent names developed by use of the shader.

Would a different holdname shader be more amenable?

Hi

@DrDoom9

The shader holdname3a.fsh was quite possibly derived from some code from @TheEmu originally and then hacked about by me in my usual messy way.

If you want to "increase the opacity" - I assume you mean "decrease the alpha" so that the name is more transparent you could try adding the line...

gl_FragColor.a *= 0.5;

...just before the final closing bracket in the code. This will halve the alpha level of whatever is output. You could hack this "0.5" about to get the level of opacity you want from 0... completely invisible to 1... unchanged.

Correction...

The original code was from @WA adapted from "goldname.fsh" :

uniform sampler2D texture0;
uniform sampler2D texture1;
uniform float u_Elapsed;
varying vec4 gl_TexCoord[];
float weight=0.14767;
// changes and additions by WyldAnimal of the totem occluding.fsh shader used
// here to make a static color clip name.

void main(void)

{
vec4 vTexCoord = gl_TexCoord[0];

vec4 occluding = texture2D(texture0, vec2(vTexCoord.x , vTexCoord.y )) ;
gl_FragColor = vec4(0.432,0.449,0.091,occluding.a);
}

@Calgon
Thanks for the line of code. It works.
But I am afraid that most shader code is way beyond me!

@DrDoom9

I think a lot of my mods to that code are redundant and in need of a tidy up.

@DrDoom9

Here's a cleaner simpler version of holdname that I will add into future releases:

In the scene file define 4 variables for the colour and alpha level of the clipnamesprite :

clipNameSprite {
source: ClipA, 0
pos: 1230, -860, 0
scale: 0.75, 0.75
hotspot: 0.5, 0
uniform: set_r, float, 0.7
uniform: set_g, float, 1.0
uniform: set_b, float, 0.7
uniform: set_a, float, 0.1
shader: fragment, Shaders/Calgon/holdname4.fsh
}

..and the new holdname4.fsh

#version 130
uniform sampler2D texture0;
varying vec4 gl_TexCoord[];

// Bring in some uniform constants from the scene:
uniform float set_r; // Red
uniform float set_g; // Green
uniform float set_b; // Blue
uniform float set_a; // Alpha factor

void main(void)
{
vec4 vTexCoord = gl_TexCoord[0]; // Fixed function texture coordinates
gl_FragColor = texture2D(texture0, vec2(vTexCoord.x , vTexCoord.y )) ;
gl_FragColor.rgb = vec3(set_r,set_g,set_b);
gl_FragColor.a *= set_a;
}

I feel there is no other conclusion that can be made.

It is with a sad heart that I say goodbye to @TheEmu

Your contributions to the Scene Community will long carry on.

I'm sorry to hear that, he was a part of this for a long time as a scene contributor and sometimes commenter as well as not afraid to mix it up on the forum at times. Certainly will by remembered by me though I knew him only a little.

Triste nouvelle en effet.

@TheEmu a été un grand créateur et contributeur de scènes. Nous ne lui dirons jamais assez merci.

Si cela signifie son décès, je lui souahite de reposer en paix. Mes condoléances à sa famille.


Sad news indeed.

@TheEmu was a great scene creator and contributor. We can't thank him enough.

If this means his death, I wish him peace. My condolences to his family.

@TheEmu helped so much with scene building and inspired me to build and learn, his code lives on 👍

@Wyldanimal I ***** you're right. No posts since last September, having been a regular up to then.
No recent purchases of the shows either.

And as @Socialhazard said

not afraid to mix it up on the forum at times.

I was wondering what had happened to him just the other day.
RIP @TheEmu

It is with a sad heart that I say goodbye to @TheEmu

This is very sad news. RIP @TheEmu

Sad news. I hope he is at peace.

Sad news. I hope he is at peace.

Totally agree with @willyweekly

I've often disagreed with the man, but it's a damn shame to see another one of the regulars go.

We're all bound to leave at some point, but it's always sad for the ones left behind.

Not sure what has happened to @EverthangForever he normally posts some a few times a month.

😕😧I hope he is well

He posted a comment on Rebecca Volpetti's card a couple of days ago so I assume he is OK but hasn't had time to do any new Full Screen Scenes

Hi All,
Like many others, I was deeply affected by the demise of @TheEmu who was mentor to us in so many ways. He had his good reasons for not joining Discord which I happen to agree with. The last straw for me was in February when Totem only accepted applications of Discord members as testers for new alpha ('experimental') versions of iStripper.

I understand anecdotely this policy may have since been reviewed, however I've not heard otherwise from Totem to say non Discord members are once again welcome as iStripper testers.

Bonjour à tous
Comme beaucoup d'autres, j'ai été profondément touché par la disparition de @TheEmu qui était notre mentor à bien des égards. Il avait ses bonnes raisons de ne pas rejoindre Discord, ce avec quoi je suis d'accord. La goutte d'eau qui a fait déborder le vase pour moi a été en février, lorsque Totem n'a accepté que les candidatures des membres de Discord en tant que testeurs pour les nouvelles versions alpha (« expérimentales ») d'iStripper.

Je comprends qu'anecdotement, cette politique a peut-être été revue depuis, mais je n'ai pas entendu le contraire de Totem dire que les non-membres de Discord sont à nouveau les bienvenus en tant que testeurs d'iStripper.
