  1. COMP 238 Final Project Non-Photorealistic Rendering Techniques for a Game Engine

  2. Remember NPR Quake?

  3. How did they do it? • “grep”-ed the Quake source code for OpenGL calls • Pulled them out into one source file • Added dynamic loading support • Started coding different visual styles

  4. How about a “cartoon” look? • Silhouettes • Creases • Shading • Shadows • Walls

  5. Silhouettes Flip the normals and extend the edges of backfacing polygons.

  6. Creases (1) Add thin quadrilaterals at each edge, forming an angle with the polygon.

  7. Creases (2) • It actually works!

  8. Shadows • The function is there, but it’s never called :(. • Just draw a projection of each model on a horizontal plane (not always correct, but works out pretty well).

  9. Cartoon-style shading • 1D texture • coordinate at vertex = amount of light received

  10. Walls • No lighting information available, so… • Replace with “hand-drawn” texture. • Add charcoal style for lines (one thick line and several jittered thin lines).
