+
+Ok, I have my new GeForce 6800 GT, the latest beta of the DirectX 9.0c SDK, the latest beta of nVidia’s drivers (SM3 enabled). Let’s start!
+
+I read many papers, watched some samples, I’m getting back in the 3D programming slowly as I spent the past month working on 3D Editor and game logic.
+
+Few words come to my mind: <span class="texte2">Perspective Shadow Mapping, Parallax Mapping, Ambient Occlusion, HDR, and Deferred Shading.</span>
+
+The most critical part of the brainstorming was: should I go for the Deferred Shading?
+
+I mean the whole technique is really appealing:  
+<span class="texte2">• It’s suited for hardware like the R300 and NV40 (good precision, Multiple Rendering Targets).   
+• Come on, true per-pixel lighting!   
+• Distinct stages for the rending process: albedo computation/MRT setup, lighting, post process (HDR, Blur, Fog, Glow …), which means high plugability!   
+• Perspective Shadow Mapping should work nicely with.   
+• It should only get better and faster on next hardware.   
+</span>  
+But:  
+<span class="texte2">• Hum…transparency? How? Where?   
+• Antialising…not so much, but we can walk round this.   
+• Can’t use complex Materials such as the ones for SH lighting.   
+• High pixel power is needed, can this technique run a great game scene at a suitable framerate on a X800 or 6800 GT?   
+</span>  
+Ok, let’s do it, the technique itself is so attractive to me, I have to try it out!

+**I’ve spent too much time the last few days to make D3DX working with Irion.**  
+<span class="texte2">The library is static, and doesn’t like our custom new/delete operators. The bug is not solved yet (appears to be a problem on the Microsoft’s side), but I temporary bypassed it. </span>
+
+**Big big thank to Greeg Peeper from Microsoft for his help and support!**
+
+ **HLSL and D3D .FX roxx**   
+<span class="texte2">It eases and speeds the work so much. I had several problems (still the mysterious D3DX bug) to compile/open a .fx file in my project, but I guess it only happens to me…</span>
+
+ <span class="texte2"></span>**So I started a new Renderer project (IrionSM3Renderer)**   
+<span class="texte2">Ripped a lot of the code from the IrionDX9Renderer one (Vertex Buffer and other D3D resources creation and maintenance).</span>
+
+ <span class="texte2"></span>**Let’s go for the Deferred Shading.**
+
+<span class="texte2">**1) Created three Rendering Targets, 32bits wide each.**   
+The first is D3DFMT\_A8R8G8B8 to store the albedo.   
+The second is D3DFMT\_R32F to store the pixel’s Z.   
+The third is D3DFMT\_G16R16F to store the X and Y components of the pixel’s normal.   
+I think I’ll need a fourth one later to add material properties. </span>
+
+**2) Program the following rendering passes:**   
+• Rendering into the MRTs. Nothing complex, except a little detail I explain below.   
+• Do the lighting, for each light I parse the MRTs, computing the lighting for each pixel and accumulate the result in a D3DFMT\_A16B16G16R16F buffer (why bother).   
+• Display the accumulation buffer by copying it in the back buffer (have to take care of few things to make the 3D GUI Helpers still rendering with the standard path).
+
+As usual, I had few matrices issues, and I also didn’t realised that storing data in the Rendering Target can only be in the \[0, 1\] range and not \[-1, 1\] (like the normals…).
+
+All the data are transformed into the camera’s space, I can reconstruct the Normal ’s Z (Z = sqrt(1-X²-Y²)) as I don’t mind about the sign of the vector (always positive in camera’s space).
+
+ <span class="texte2"></span>**That’s all for now…Diffuse and Specular lighting is done, with a basic material.**
+
+ **I modified the Test3D program**   
+<span class="texte2">to be able to switch on the fly between the DX9Renderer and the SM3Renderer.   
+It’s great, I can see the differences instantaneously!</span>
+
+ <span class="texte2">**Screenshots Time!**</span>
+
+ <span class="texte2">![](/assets/fromcs/Render1_SM3.jpg)</span>
+
+ <span class="texte2"><span class="texte">Per pixel lighting, yummy.</span></span>
+
+ <span class="texte2"><span class="texte"><span class="texte">Note: the lighting is not the exact same one because I don’t take into account all the material settings. The specular is not at the same place as the FFP version, I think I’ll figure it out later. </span></span></span>
