The vertical axes of textures and picture pixels is shown above, when sampling textures in shaders, that is from top to bottom, which is top-right corner. This is consistent with how most image file formats store pixel data, and with how most graphics APIs work (including DirectX, Vulkan, Metal, WebGPU, but not OpenGL). x,waveFactor.y-uv0.y);

Dead Space Remake Stuck on Building Shaders: How To Fix

Game Errors

Shaders are quick applications that modify how in-game objects are rendered on the graphics processing unit (GPU). If Dead Space Remake stuck on building shaders, it may indicate that the game is having problems loading or processing the visual data. Why is Building Shaders Taking Forever in Dead Space Remake?

D2 log 074 – New level format

Catnip Games

The graphics backend rewrite took a while. I export the rendered terrain from Blender as a RGBA image but with alpha value set to depth. The custom terrain shader uses the z-channel to draw water in lower areas of the level. However, the situation is now good. Interactive elements will be placed using the in-game editor.
