Post by: CCC on December 28, 2009, 04:25:00 PM
I think these additions would greatly benefit this shader and in effect produce more true to reality results.

I'll try. My PC is slow so it will be a while.

I do recall that old thread but some of the techniques looks to complicated, however i am working on another idea different from that at the moment. Kind of funny how a thread is made full of nice ideas and then forgotten a short tome later.  ;D

The function-network for creating a rotating sinus isn't that complicated.
I remember FrankB showed me once how but I can't remember it..silly me.
Perhaps you can ask him, it's really simple to implement and control.
