I Tried Adding Lighting to My C++ Minecraft Clone...

[@wsalevan]

Hey guys! This video was kind of an experiment. What did you guys think of it? Feel free to give your honest and complete feedback because I know this was a bit different than my normal content. If you guys don't like this, I won't make more videos like it, but if you do, then I'll find a balance. I think it would be cool to have highlights and funny moments from the streams somewhere, so let me know your thoughts!

[@ProSureString]

I will once I finish the video :D

[@ProSureString]

I love this type of content, it was so fun and funny watching you figure that out :)

[@omoflop2195]

I always enjoy messing with coding projects, especially with shaders. I very much enjoyed it :)

[@wsalevan]

​@@ProSureStringThanks I'll keep making more of them!

Fun to watch. No gimmick ,clickbait or cringe. Just a dude messing out while learning

[@wsalevan]

Thanks!

[@Yeniww]

@@wsalevan I really enjoyed watching the process you went through, I heard someone say once that youtube is about story telling, and I think you told a pretty fun story here.

[@wsalevan]

Thanks! I love making this style of content so I'll keep 'em coming

[@hurmpel]

You're so fast with learning this im jealous. Also cant wait for when you are going to add collisions

[@wsalevan]

I'm definitely going to be adding collisions not too far from now

[@Sirbozo]

ye

[@James-e4q3c]

After adding collision test it with these weird shaders

[@wsalevan]

I'll do that in an episode titled "I added hardcore drugs to my C++ Minecraft Clone"

[@Gatrehs]

As an epileptic, this was a scary video.

[@wsalevan]

Oh no I'm sorry

Did you get to improve ur break dancing skills?

[@mattVmatt12]

To be fair I think the thumbnail should have given you enough to know that there was going to be flashing lights

[@fai_ja]

This series really showcases the joy of programming lol Messing around with things you don't understand and losing your mind because the light turned purple

[@wsalevan]

That's the goal. I'm glad you're enjoying it!

[@feathersm7966]

Some definite improvements with your CPP here. Look at forward declarations, include guards and how to properly manage libraries in your project and it will improve your experience with those undefined symbols, redeclarations and messed up imports ❤️

[@wsalevan]

Thanks for the suggestions! I'll look into them

[@trickxss]

I had a really fun time watching this video, it was amazing! It goes from "let's add lighting" to mess with shaders and then... We have lighting!! It was really cool. Pls make more!

[@wsalevan]

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'll definitely be making more

[@Swagenstein]

Great video, it’s always nice to see bigger youtubers like colorMarkiplier support smaller ones ❤

Seeing the actual process of figuring out how to achieve something is so incredibly useful and entertaining to see! Definitely wanna see more of these

[@wsalevan]

I'm glad you enjoy it!

[@GaresMusicOfficial]

So glad this ended up on my recommended. The amount of times I've also messed around after writing shaders and it doesn't work as intended... too many XD. Anyways man, love the video, please make more

[@wsalevan]

Thanks! I'm definitely going to keep making more. I'm planning on making slower-paced more detailed videos in addition to these ones

[@LeandroSQ01]

Loved this

[@breadcodes]

You can fix the includes breaking in multiple places by wrapping the include itself in a ifndef block (include guards) so that the compiler isn't copying it around and redefining the lib names causing the error, which should have been done at the library level but you can do it on your end too. Add a "#ifndef SOME_UNIQUE_NAME", then add "#define SOME_UNIQUE_NAME", then the include, and finally after the include add "#endif". I would have written a better example, but KZbin isn't great for links and formatting, so hopefully that makes sense. It should fix your issue.

[@wsalevan]

It does have header guards so I'm not sure what's going on with it. I'm too lazy to look through the library to figure it out because I'm planning on replacing it soon anyway

[@albertojesusalvaradogarza1009]

6:33 thats sooo cool man, use it for water if you can

[@wsalevan]

I'm going to use something similar for water

[@zalick1067]

man i love this video

[@deleted_handle]

this was fun

[@mayoraeryn]

Honestly I think you should add the trippiness as it's own shader for people to just mess around with, I think that could be pretty interesting

[@anwiseru9064]

omg ive had the same issue with including algorithm, on Linux i didnt need to but on another OS i had to include it, so weird

[@wsalevan]

Yeah it's so weird and inconsistent. I don't get it

[@EricOnline92]

I wonder how often Devs do this kind of thing while making games lol awesome video btw! I am currently learning C++ and apparently so are you but you are making a damn Minecraft clone I am still figuring out Loops and sh**. Lol eh in due time I suppose.

[@wsalevan]

Thanks! I did come into C++ with many years of experience in other languages, so our situations aren't exactly the same. You'll get there as well!

please send a hug to Brazil in the next video

[@artipeo816]

Cool as hell

[@wsalevan]

Thanks!

[@shipweck6253]

Little explanation for like the first minute of the video. The reason why you didnt need to include before was probably because a header you used already included in its definition. And for the second error you had, i think its because ```#pragma once``` is an extension of some compilers, so it might not work with the compiler you were using

[@wsalevan]

Hmmm maybe some OpenGL or GLM stuff had algorithm in it. I didn't think to check if the noise header had pragma once since it's an external library but maybe I should do that

[@shipweck6253]

@@wsalevan In case pragma once doesn’t work, use header guards

[@wsalevan]

I just checked and the noise header actually uses header guards so I'm not sure what's happening

[@untodesu]

Lighting is scary, after I got to shadow mapping my entire project fell apart and I haven't added it to the rewrite ever since :D

[@wsalevan]

Yeah I thought about adding shadows and decided I'd save it for another day lol

[@untodesu]

@@wsalevan it's generally not that hard to do shadow mapping: all you do is render the entire scene a second time from the "sun's location" and just compare the depth values, but it's quite annoying to deal with if you decide to go further and do something like cascaded shadow maps (eek!)

[@wsalevan]

Gotcha. I'll probably try to add it on stream sometime

[@lunalynx8655]

you have to undef max as its also defined in another lib. I don't remember the name of it

[@4F6D]

You really should keep the shader and activate it when someone eats a red mushroom

Instead of removing the noise class you could simply put its specification inside a header file with #pragma once
