• Updated tsx file November
• Updated shaders for November tsx and 3Delight v11

Installation:

1. setup 3Delight 11.x
2. unrar the dribble_source_092509.7z file
3. inside find a zip archive – .\dribble_source_092509\dribble\install\dribble1.04wip080808.zip
4. unzip dribble1.04wip080808.zip from the install folder then run dribble1.04wip080808_setup.exe
5. a new dribble folder inside the tsx folder will be created with the original coolpowers dribble plugin
6. copy dribble1.05wip101813_ts6or7.tsx into the dribble folder
7. unzip Compiled3DelightShaders_Nov2013.zip
8. copy the sdl files to the 3Delight shaders (C:\Program Files\3Delight\shaders\)
9. fix for 64bit windows installation
   1. clear the scene
   2. preferences set renderer engine to Lightworks.tsr
   3. display options
      • Txt res to 1024x1024
      • LW 1024x1024
      • Txt res for Workspace 1024x1024
   4. install the plugin and immedietly exit trueSpace

Changes from the original Dribble:

• fix displacements when using normal and bump maps
• compiled shaders for 3Delight v11
• tS7.61 crashing on win7 64bit machine - renderdl option can be used as a workaround for single image render
• added shadowmap scale for ortho projections(infinite lights)
• increased irradiance intensity max from 10 to 100
• temporary texture tdl files are stored in the dribble working folder instead of in the texture folder
• caustics working
• normal/bump maps working with proper scaling and match Lightworks renders
• increase caustic defaults: samples=1000, amount=100, intensity=10
• option to use 3Delights i-display

New Options

• motion blur - enables motion blur for single images, the file dialog blur option handles image sequences/avi
• bake textures - experimental option that bakes the final color of selected uv mapped objects to a file
• bake occlusion - experimental option that bakes the occlusion function of selected uv mapped objects to a file
• use renderdl - uses the i-display driver instead of rendering to the trueSpace viewport
• shadowmap scale - for infinite lights with shadowmaps
• Render Passes:
  • jpg - output as 8 bit jpeg files
  • 8 bit - output tif as 8 bit files, otherwise output tif as floating point files
  • exr - output OpenEXR format floating point files - if 8bit option then will ouput jpg files
  • depth - floating point tif file representing depth, not compatible with jpg option
  • diff - sames as psd diffuse
  • spec - same as psd specular
  • amb - same as psd ambient
  • reflect - same as psd reflection
  • refract - same as psd refraction
  • diffc - diffuse color, no light interaction
  • diffv - diffuse value
  • alpha - alpha channel

Notes:

• the dribble1.05wip101813_ts6or7.tsx file is misnamed. It is really version 1.05wip110713
• https://reeses-ur.com/wp/?p=61 for some notes on compiling the shaders for specific versions of 3Delight
  username "generic", password "openup"
• local light point the plug end toward the scene when using shadowmaps it uses an invisible cone like a spotlight
• tdlmake to manually convert the baked files to tiff files
• xxx_Ci.bake is the texture and xxx_occ.bake is the occlusion file. Open a command window to the working folder (C:\trueSpace761\tS\tsx\dribble\workingdata\) and run a command like so
  • tdlmake -byte -bakeres 1024 cube_0_Ci.bake cube_0_Ci.tif
  • tdlmake -byte -bakeres 1024 cube_0_occ.bake cube_0_occ.tif
• psd files are 8 bit color
• openexr files are floating point
• depth pass is always floating point exr or tif
• tiff files cannot be read back into truespace
  • currently dribble exports the default of lzw compression
  • tS seems to only read uncompressed tif files
  • workspace cannot read tiffs no matter what the compression settings
• depth pass only works with tiff option, jpeg ignored, exr will be blank
• the custom tScausticlight is not working so uses the 3Delight causticlight
• avoid 2 sided geometry like the double sided plane because they will render with interference patterns
• render passes only setup for the standard truespace material
• Original Coolpowers Dribble Installer
