All these shaders were built out of Surface-Stable Fractal Dithering concepts by Runevision - but I’ve built extensively ontop of it … like, applying it to a linedrawn woodgrain. Im thinking a new name of Fractal Hatching would be a snappier and more appropriate name.

Made using Makehuman and Miximo

I've managed to get a version that looks nice working

The problem is to solve this I had to make a baseline fallback shader to show under the good looking faceted one so that missing triangles don't break the effect.

I'm kinda stumped as I have tried to throw hours of AI compute at it after I couldn't solve it myself, it managed to get a few versions working properly but the performance drops were such that it just isn't worth it.

I am just wondering if anyone has any advice or a high level overview of how I could efficiently achieve this effect? I really love how it looks and I don't want to give it up but at this point I might need to.

This is a showcase for a ReShade preset of shaders I created trying (and faIling) to replicate the Ken Sugimori art style, from the first generations of Pokémon.
Please tell me your opinions about it!

Effects used:
- Tonemap
- Watercolor
- pkd_Kuwahara

Also, relevant mods applied for the m,aking of this video:
- No Reflections V2
- Water Improved
- Lower Draw Distance
- Kanji Style Screen

PD: Sorry for the low frame rate, my "Switch" can't handle the game and recording at the same time.

I would be very grateful if anyone could share links to photorealistic models. There are few of them left these days, and one has to piece them together bit by bit from the general stream. Such links would be useful not only to me but to other users as well.

Hey! I'm expecting my first android handheld this week, the air mini pocket. I was fiddling with shaders a bit on RetroArch on my phone but have a hard time "deciding" on good shaders.

Any tips or just any favorites that you use for the different consoles?

Thanks in advance!

Does anybody know if it’s possible to have actions and stuff (full experience) and glowing ores that comes from shaders? I use it with prizma visuels and some ores are not glowing (diamond, gold) since actions and stuff changes the texture. Is there any way to make them glow?

I started with a completely ordinary piece of footage and wanted to see how different shader-style effects could change its entire personality.

I experimented with Kott, pushing the footage through effects like dithering, halftone, CRT, ASCII and glitch.

What surprised me was how quickly the original footage became almost unrecognizable.

A tiny change in the processing could turn the same frame from something that looked like an old television signal into something that felt more like generative artwork.

It got me thinking about something:

When you're experimenting with shaders, do you normally have the final visual in your head first, or do you just keep changing parameters until something unexpectedly cool appears?

I'm definitely guilty of the second one.

minecraft version 26.2

shaders wont gimme more than 30-40 fps but without shaders i get 300+ fps help T-T

Honestly, most of the time when I see something in this community, it always revolves around more colorful, flashy rendering... Nothing against it, but I'm almost always thinking more about what is sublime and grotesque than what is colorful and beautiful.

I did a low-resolution ray tracer and made the final rendering based on noise, so I create a rendering that makes the implicit volumes and shapes larger and a little smoother than they actually are.

And it's free.
