MotionBlur

[martin951]

Not an issue rather a question..

Is it possible to render a custom vehicle camera with motion blur?

I tried to add motion blur in the past, but seems like it's not possible, at least not without modify timecycle files.

I'm trying things like this with no luck:

However, it may be possible with mods like this:

I need to figure out how to set desired ammount of blur and direction.

Motionblur works only when I don't update camera position. Meaning if the cam is purely attached to an entity it works.
This is however quite useless for a custom dynamic camera with movement :/

So probably it can't be done only by script or modified timecycle files. It will most likely require some reversing (find the address of motion blur on memory and force it to be enabled and set strength/direction).

But I'm not good at reversing (yet)...

Any help is welcome.

Do you have an example of this? Does that also require modded game files?

Iam using natural visions enhanced motion blur. I believe it does the same as the mod you linked.
Just attach the cam to players current vehicle once and it should have blur

Not sure if it would work in my mod by calculating camera's position and rotation just like now, but instead of setting position and rotation on each frame, attach the cam to the car and set the relative offset between camera and car to match the global position and rotation I calculated on each frame...

I hope setting the offset doesn't disable motion blur...

Doesn't work (no motion blur)

I believe you are not allowed to change rot either.

[martin951]

I mean every time you update the camera pos or rot or attachment, motion blur resets. Since you call it every frame > no motion blur.

Only solution I can think of would be spline cam.. Constantly adding new points to the spline path and interpolate the cam.

Surprisingly, it worked out on first person, but only when vehicle speed is between 0 and 1, when is 0 there is no motion blur, and it increases as the value gets closer to 1. As soon as the speed exceeds 1, the effect disappear. I've tried every single native related to motion blur to try to fix it, I even tried to scale cam spline velocity.

Tomorrow I will post the code used, and also will commit this stuff to a separate btanch.
