Great video, it's rare to see this kind of stuff on yt. Cool to have shared the code too! A sweet implementation would to have noise variation at runtime. In that regard blue noise is pretty much prohibitive, but I guess it could be possible to imagine an array of preprocessed seeds of blue noise to make up for the variation without having to compute calculations every frame.

hi, I'm newbie at graphics. what do you mean by prohibitive? isn't offsetting a blue noise texture enough to give you that variation?

@shadow_xts

@@xYAuronYx blue noise is notoriously expensive to compute and therefore not very suitable, if at all, for realtime. unless you'd compute it beforehand, then apply it to halftone your image. this is what is done here but on static images. if you want to do it over an animated image, the halftoning wouldn't budge; it would just be a static mask over the moving image. if you want to avoid the staticness you can either generate noise at runtime or prebake an array of different noise seeds that you will apply in turns over each frame. so it would look like it's moving-textures are expensive too but almost certainly less than computing blue noise. other types of noise, like real white noise, are pretty cheap but they won't give the same quiet and quaint effect.

I think the shading would look a lot better(or at least, closer to what it's trying to do) if it were thin dark lines directly next to each other instead of random dots, because that's much more realistic I think

Wow! This is literally breathtaking! :D Keep it up! ^ - ^

thank you so much!

Thanks for all the specific terms and including your development logic & studies leading to the final result. It's really helpful.

I think this would work well for an in-game map of the game world (from the perspective of a camera above the world). This would then give it a hand-drawn feel. Having the effect replace the game view camera in general would be a significant downgrade for playability.

I think that last point depends on the game you're shading, honestly. We've seen that it gets less playable if you apply this shader to a random game like journey or cyberpunk, but if you design the entire game knowing that it'll be run through this shader afterwards, you can make creative decisions that preserve clarity. Also, adding some color by means of cel shading or an equivalent alternative would help. There's already games that are hand drawn, like cuphead or neverending nightmares, and 3d games that are cel-shaded, like borderlands, so I believe with some extras this shader could fall into that same category, with the added benefit of actually making every frame look like a hand drawn panel of a comic book/manga, instead of looking like a collage of distinct pictures at best.

I stumbled across these videos. They are a great perspective shift when thinking how tone/color and the like work. Really helps with art and graphic design too 👍

I'm a game designer and programmer, and after stumbling on your channel I feel really inspired to dip into graphics programming as well! All of your videos are so good!

You have great videos, most people can't really explain the thought process behind why things are done in computer graphics and you do a really good job of it. Not overly explained, not inapplicable theory that just hovers in air, just essentials to get the point across.

Love this so much. You videos have genuinely got me interested in learning graphics programming. I love seeing all this math and logic coming together to make something really pretty.

The blue noise pattern is too visible in the stippling.

Transforming a photograph into artwork looking like ink or watercolor = a great way to spend plenty of time inventing filters! I have a method that involved, I never counted, maybe 60 to 100 steps, lots of parameters, and I've made prints that I've shown in art shows. So much room for variations, nuances!

Probably not very well lol, you'd do a different approach for a moving camera since in that context you'd have actual scene information and can use depth/normal info for edge detection rather than the image effect edge detection algorithm.

It looks good overall, but your noise texture is too uniform, too robotic. If you had an artist hand-draw different levels of stippling and then overlaid them, you might get something that looks more natural

Couldn't you use normals to determine which fragments are roughly perpendicular to the screen and regard them as edges?

you should play, or at least take a look at: 'Obra Dinn' from the Pope (Lucas Pope)!

That is really cool , but when I imported the packages the effect does not work. I look at the inspector panel the slots of images were empty , am i missing something or should I need to mess with post processing?? Plus: I'm getting some gradient loop error!

omg please tell me that at 3:11 is not a SHIFT...

Trying to implement it, but tbh i'm kinda lost, you added the paper texture, but i don't see the ink texture, and also idk how to make it all into a material and when i add the script into an object it moves my camera and makes it go invisible xD. What am I doing right?

Cause I didnt have a good scene to apply it to at the time, hence why it's intended as an image filter. No, the performance isnt that awful considering the canny edge detection filter is pretty much the first stage of FXAA.

I do a lot of creative image processing. There are a hundred approaches to this. For one-time work, I do things manually in GIMP. Anything GIMP can do, PS can do too, afik. One bad thing about manual image processing, doing things step by step is if after 50 steps you realize that a setting you used in step 5 should have been a little different, you may have to ^Z undo your way back, tweak that setting, then re-do the next 45 steps exactly the same. Better to build some sort of pipeline that automatically recalculates all follwing steps if you tweak one of the earlier steps, like how a spreadsheet works. For batch processing or ongoing jobs, I write code in Python or Julia. I have a kind of toolbag of routines for sharpening, edge detection, color adjustments etc. Easy to make a pipeline with adjustable parameters. If I need to do something tricky to code but easy to do in GIMP, I write a command line or GUI app in D, C++ or Vala code using GEGL, the core image processing code used in GIMP. Whatever I do manually, I can do this way too. For someone who doesn't mind writing some code but doesn't want to go deep with full-blown applications programming, there's a way to script GEGL operations inside GIMP, even with multi-branched pipelines, so whatever processing you do today you can save to re-use later. I might experiment in Blender where the input image is just a flat rectangle and processing is done with material nodes, but most of that is point operations, no blur or unsharp or median filters. But I can replace a still image with a video texture. There are some GUI apps that let you drag nodes around and wire them up in intricate ways, like the nodes in Blender or other 3D apps. TouchDesigner had something like that, and you could write custom shaders in code, but I haven't used it in a while. Unreal is the king of the graphics tool world, as it has everything. I'm not familiar with its image processing capabilities, if you want to do advanced algorithms but not be doing any 3D. Something I need to play with one of these days... For scientific work in astronomy, I write code in IDL, a cuss-worthy language based on a horrid mishmash of C, Fortran, BASIC, Matlab and outer space alien. But everyone's been pushing for more Python and somewhat also for Julia. Avoid IDL!
