ShaderToolkit fourbit question

  • #1, z AndresMonday, 14. February 2022, 04:57 hodinky 2 years ago
    Hi!

    I´m using Shader Toolkit Version 0.96... is this one the last version?

    Is there a way to see fourbit less pixelated?

    Thanks!

    Here's the code:

    #ifdef GL_ES
precision highp float; 
precision lowp  int; 
#endif
uniform float time;
uniform sampler2D composite;
uniform int renderpass;
uniform vec2 mouse;
uniform vec2 resolution;
varying vec2 texcoord;

// 4BIT COLOR
// Maps into DawnBringer's 4-bit (16 color) palette http://www.pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12795
// Also see the amazing ASCII shadertoy: https://www.shadertoy.com/view/lssGDj
float hash(vec2 p) { return fract(1e4 * sin(17.0 * p.x + p.y * 0.1) * (0.1 + abs(sin(p.y * 13.0 + p.x)))); }
float compare(vec3 a, vec3 b) {
    // Increase saturation
    a = max(vec3(0.0), a - min(a.r, min(a.g, a.b)) * 0.25);
    b = max(vec3(0.0), b - min(b.r, min(b.g, b.b)) * 0.25);
    a*=a*a;
    b*=b*b;
    vec3 diff = (a - b);
    return dot(diff, diff);
}
void main(void) {
    const float pixelSize = 1.0;
    vec2 c = floor(texcoord * resolution / pixelSize);
    vec2 coord = c * pixelSize;
    vec3 src = texture2D(composite, coord / resolution.xy).rgb;
    // Track the two best colors
    vec3 dst0 = vec3(0), dst1 = vec3(0);
    float best0 = 1e3, best1 = 1e3;
#   define TRY(R, G, B) { const vec3 tst = vec3(R, G, B); float err = compare(src, tst); if (err < best0) { best1 = best0; dst1 = dst0; best0 = err; dst0 = tst; } }
    TRY(0.078431, 0.047059, 0.109804);
    TRY(0.266667, 0.141176, 0.203922);
    TRY(0.188235, 0.203922, 0.427451);
    TRY(0.305882, 0.290196, 0.305882);
    TRY(0.521569, 0.298039, 0.188235);

    TRY(0.815686, 0.274510, 0.282353);
    TRY(0.458824, 0.443137, 0.380392);
    TRY(0.349020, 0.490196, 0.807843);
    TRY(0.823529, 0.490196, 0.172549);
    TRY(0.521569, 0.584314, 0.631373);
    TRY(0.427451, 0.666667, 0.172549);
    TRY(0.823529, 0.666667, 0.600000);
    TRY(0.427451, 0.760784, 0.792157);
    TRY(0.854902, 0.831373, 0.368627);
    TRY(0.870588, 0.933333, 0.839216);
#   undef TRY   
    best0 = sqrt(best0); best1 = sqrt(best1);
    gl_FragColor = vec4(mod(c.x + c.y, 2.0) >  (hash(c * 2.0 + fract(sin(vec2(floor(time), floor(time* 1.7))))) * 0.75) + (best1 / (best0 + best1)) ? dst1 : dst0, 1.0);
}

    There's pixelSize, I set to it to 1.0. Add this as a shader named fourbit in the shadertab, then you can use with this:

    shader_effects["fourbit"] = { shader = Shaders["fourbit"].Compiled }
shaderAddEffect("fourbit")
bind("fourbit", "time", field("shader_iTime"))

    sorry, I´m not expert with this code grin

    Should I add #ifdef GL_ES code in ShaderToolkit script at the end and add
    "shader_effects["fourbit"] = { shader = Shaders["fourbit"].Compiled }
    shaderAddEffect("fourbit")
    bind("fourbit", "time", field("shader_iTime"))" everytime I wanted to use the fourbit, right?

    and then play with pixelSize ?

    (I tried that and it didn´t work)

    No, put the shader part (the long part) into a shader in the shader section in the engine (third icon from the right upper left), just add a shader and name it fourbit and put the shader in fs, it then compiles automatically, and you can change the pixelsize there if needed. You must use the internal shader compiler.

    Just add the lua script as a definition script afterwards, there are no changes needed.

    Hello!

    I get this error after I put long code in shader compiler: "error X4000: variable 'outColor' used without having been completely initialized"

    What could be the problem?

    Alright seems the html editor completely messed up the code, I edited it, try again.

    Hello!

    Another question:
    is it possible to change the pixel size for "fourbit" depending on a particular scene? For example, if I need the pixel size to be different in some scenes, while in others it remains the default.

    Or is it too labor intensive?

    You can make the pixel size an uniform:
    #ifdef GL_ES
precision highp float; 
precision lowp  int; 
#endif
uniform float time;
uniform sampler2D composite;
uniform int renderpass;
uniform vec2 mouse;
uniform vec2 resolution;
varying vec2 texcoord;
uniform float pixelSize;

float hash(vec2 p) { return fract(1e4 * sin(17.0 * p.x + p.y * 0.1) * (0.1 + abs(sin(p.y * 13.0 + p.x)))); }
float compare(vec3 a, vec3 b) {
    // Increase saturation
    a = max(vec3(0.0), a - min(a.r, min(a.g, a.b)) * 0.25);
    b = max(vec3(0.0), b - min(b.r, min(b.g, b.b)) * 0.25);
    a*=a*a;
    b*=b*b;
    vec3 diff = (a - b);
    return dot(diff, diff);
}

    vec2 c = floor(texcoord * resolution / pixelSize);
    vec2 coord = c * pixelSize;
    vec3 src = texture2D(composite, coord / resolution.xy).rgb;
    // Track the two best colors
    vec3 dst0 = vec3(0), dst1 = vec3(0);
    float best0 = 1e3, best1 = 1e3;
#   define TRY(R, G, B) { const vec3 tst = vec3(R, G, B); float err = compare(src, tst); if (err < best0) { best1 = best0; dst1 = dst0; best0 = err; dst0 = tst; } }

}
    And then set it via lua:
    shader_effects["fourbit"] = { shader = Shaders["fourbit"].Compiled }
shaderAddEffect("fourbit")
bind("fourbit", "time", field("shader_iTime"))
shader_effects["fourbit"].num.pixelSize = 1
