That is pretty neat!

I'd buy this island. Can I have a landing bridge?

This is a double fail! As I recorded the initial fail, fraps decided to record music that I was apparently listening to (my headphones weren't on, so I didn't even know!)





Although, I'm not sure if this is a fail so much as it is passing inappropriate parameters to a function that makes Gerstner waves.

Triple fail because of dubstep.

Haha sweet I love that picture! it actually looks like it is intentional.

I accidentally put the Field of View way too high.

I do not regret anything.

P.S. Listening to this makes it way cooler

The Grid. A digital frontier. I tried to picture clusters of information as they moved through the computer. What did they look like? Ships? motorcycles? Were the circuits like freeways? I kept dreaming of a world I thought I'd never see. And then, one day...

*suddent urge to listen to my Tron Legacy CD*
Thanks!

one wrong coord and some gnarly godrays appear

Not really sure if it's a 'fail' per say, just not what I expected.

I was working on making a Geometry Wars styled grid, and while that worked, this rather unexpected thing happened when I enlarged the selection area to 'full' and set the pull force to reverse.
Makes a neat desktop background too.

(Compressing the grid to a point and making it re-expand turned out to be fun too.)

I really like it actually!

I am currently programming a function in XNA that makes an old-school style fade-out (You know, like the older PSX games, where some of the brighter pixels are still a little bit visible before it's all faded out). So I sketched this code out:

Code:

if (fadeout == true)
{
    GraphicsDevice.Textures[0] = null;
    
    for (int i = 0; i < colorBuffer.Length; i++)
    {
        if (colorBuffer[i].R > 0)
            colorBuffer[i].R -= 1;
    
        if (colorBuffer[i].G > 0)
            colorBuffer[i].G -= 1;
    
        if (colorBuffer[i].B > 0)
            colorBuffer[i].B -= 1;
    }

    testImage.SetData(colorBuffer);
}

Intended result:




And it works pretty good, it does what I expect with no performance problems at all.
However, I think the fadeout was too slow (it takes approx. 4 - 5 seconds), so I replaced 1 with 8.

The fail here is that it doesn't check if there's an underflow, so this is the hillarious result I get:


 

It looks smoother at 60 FPS though (YouTube converts it to 30 FPS). I think it looks like one of those cool Amiga demo effects.

I read your code first before scrolling down, and totally guessed what the issue was going to be to be
I think I have encountered the same problem before actually. I just can't remember when. Anyway, the working version looks very nice

[Ashkin]

Whoops.

You broke Flash!

Nice job.

[kamac]

You broke Flash!

Pff. Easy.

Triple fail because of dubstep.

If I'd had some music making software on my GNU/Linux box and would be willing to take the time to learn creating dubsteb i'd make a remix of this  for you. (because I once took some dmt and listened to dubsteb and believe in parallel gods and inverse&inside out time nowadays )

I somehow managed to make reverse lighting - the closer to the light, the darker the texture. I believe it was a result of not normalizing something:




Reverse light could potentially be a cool game mechanic.

Also this happened when I was playing around:


Still can't get the damn thing right.

EDIT:

WHYYYYYYY

[Radix]

working on a shader

[eigenbom]

@radix my eyes just vomitted

[Dr. Cooldude]

@radix
Reminds me of ZX Spectrum graphics

[Radix]

Yeah I totally wanna make a speccish adventure game at some point with this shit.



Horrible things keep happening but it's great.
