Shadows volumes: what's wrong ??!
Author
i'm playng a bit with shadows volumes. i've wrote a small class for an object, with faces and vertexes and i've created the relative shadow volume. in my render function i clear all the biffers, then render my scene (it's a simple high tessellated floor with a quad on it that should cast the shadow, nothing special) with a wireframe version of the casted volume this is perfect) , then i set the opengl states for the stencil, render the shadow and flush. Are these the correct passes or should i do some other things?
the real problem is that except the floor , the quad and the wireframe volume, nothing more is rendered. The shadows doesn't appear. It's like if the stencil buffer is not filled. This is my render function:
this is the code from the tutorial #27 on NeHe.
Any advices?
Is backface culling enabled ?
Do you set the stencil mask somewhere ?
BTW, instead of drawing a shadow quad, you should first render the scene with only ambient light draw shadow volumes, and then redraw the scene with diffuse and specular light (and this for all point lights). This will look much better.

this is my InitGl function:
if i enable backface culling nothing is rendered o_O
bool InitGL(void){ glShadeModel(GL_SMOOTH); // Enable Smooth Shading glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.5f); // Black Background glClearDepth(1.0f); // Depth Buffer Setup glClearStencil(0); // Stencil Buffer Setup glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST); // Enables Depth Testing glDepthFunc(GL_LEQUAL); // The Type Of Depth Testing To Do// glCullFace(GL_BACK); // Set Culling Face To Back Face// glEnable(GL_CULL_FACE); // Enable Culling glHint(GL_PERSPECTIVE_CORRECTION_HINT, GL_NICEST); // Really Nice Perspective Calculations float LightAmb[] = { 0.2f, 0.2f, 0.2f, 1.0f}; float LightDif[] = { 0.6f, 0.6f, 0.6f, 1.0f}; glLightfv(GL_LIGHT1, GL_AMBIENT, LightAmb); // Set Light1 Ambience glLightfv(GL_LIGHT1, GL_DIFFUSE, LightDif); // Set Light1 Diffuse glEnable(GL_LIGHTING); glEnable(GL_LIGHT1); glEnable(GL_BLEND); glBlendFunc(GL_ONE, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA); glClearColor(0.1f, 1.0f, 0.5f, 1.0f); // Set Clear Color (Greenish Color) return true;}if i enable backface culling nothing is rendered o_O
i don't know if your using z-fail or not(you should). so here is the code for that
glFrontFace(GL_CCW);
glStencilOp(GL_KEEP, GL_DECR, GL_KEEP);
Quad.DrawShadowVolume(lpos);
glFrontFace(GL_CW);
glStencilOp(GL_KEEP, GL_INCR, GL_KEEP);
Quad.DrawShadowVolume(lpos);
other than that, have you tried fiddeling with this line
glStencilFunc( GL_NOTEQUAL, 0, 0xFFFFFFFFL );
try
glStencilFunc( GL_EQUAL, 0, 0xFFFFFFFFL );
IF the entire screen isn't shadowed with this, then it's a problem with the rendering of the black shadow polygon
allso i see that the shadow polygon is renderd at z=-0.10f
what is your z near?
try to put glDisable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
right before glBegin( GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP );
glFrontFace(GL_CCW);
glStencilOp(GL_KEEP, GL_DECR, GL_KEEP);
Quad.DrawShadowVolume(lpos);
glFrontFace(GL_CW);
glStencilOp(GL_KEEP, GL_INCR, GL_KEEP);
Quad.DrawShadowVolume(lpos);

it's happening something really wierd: instead of drawing the shadow rectangle, appears its CONTOUR o_O
Author
but i've noticed that if i comment these lines:
/*glFrontFace(GL_CCW);
glStencilOp(GL_KEEP, GL_DECR, GL_KEEP);
Quad.DrawShadow(LightPos);*/
and do only this rendering pass:
glFrontFace(GL_CW);
glStencilOp(GL_KEEP, GL_INCR, GL_KEEP);
Quad.DrawShadow(LightPos);
nothing changes. but if i do the inverse, the shadow isn't rendered..
/*glFrontFace(GL_CCW);
glStencilOp(GL_KEEP, GL_DECR, GL_KEEP);
Quad.DrawShadow(LightPos);*/

glFrontFace(GL_CW);
glStencilOp(GL_KEEP, GL_INCR, GL_KEEP);

Could be because you're drawing the shadow volume in line mode with depth write enabled.
Hmmm did you try the z-fail way (the z-pass way can give bad results when the camera is inside the shadow volume) ?
Hmmm could you try you shadows step by step ?
- actually draw the shadow volume without the stencil stuff (and with blending) and see if its orientation is OK (draw front and back sides with different colors if necessary) ;
- test the incrementing pass alone for the shadow volume ;
- test the decrementing pass alone (initialize the stencil to 1).
This should help you figure what's wrong.

the incrementing pass draws the contour of the shadow.
the decrementing pass instead, draws nothing:
glStencilFunc( GL_ALWAYS, 1, 0xFFFFFFFFL );
glFrontFace(GL_CCW);
glStencilOp(GL_KEEP, GL_DECR , GL_KEEP);
Quad.DrawShadow(LightPos);
i'm slightly becoming mad...
