Frazzle, i like that post problem though, 1. finances, preva's not done yet 2. PreVa would have to be completely reworked... i'm not gonna pull a duke forever

ello, i might try that, i haven't found how to use it completely, but i will try

well, ello i tried using the render dll, but i get nothing, here's the starter function i use for it, but i don't know which model i should be rendering to, so i set it to ucfx_mdl:

Code:

---

starter render_camera
{
	me = ucfx_mdl;
	while (1)
	{
		render_backbuffer(me);
		wait(1);
	}
}

---

yeah, and from thier you would take a view entity sprite/sqaure model and set its skin to the same skin as your ucfx mdl.

..............and how would i do that

Can´t you simply make a screenshot and put it on a ball with atlas mapping and a extern skin? The screenshot gets the same name as the skin.

Then you zoom into the ball so that it is covering the complete screen. You just won´t get a high framerate.

that would work, or you could do it with a plane with an imprint inwards on it in a circular pattern

...Even better, avoid all of the external model crap, and use a little bit of math to scale your texture lookup.

Not exactly sure what this would look like, I don't have the time to figure it out...

btw, anyone knows why it is not possible anymore (with a7) to render the camera to a texture? everything turns black in that case. using an extra view works...

yep, i would do that if i wanted ~2 fps that would kill any pc, ah well i guess the fisheye cam isn't an easy shader for anyone here...sry for asking

This doesn't help Manslayer101 (as it requires render-to-texture), but as LC said, there is a nice fisheye base here:

I figured I'd post it on the off chance that it helped anyone at all, ever, any at time. :)
