neither it uses glslang or opengl's variant of directx hardware shaders.
darkplaces supports external scripts for making cool effects  |

possible to do hardware shading in in pure c but you will be in for a rough ride
the same code in glsl maybe takes 50 lines of code where as if you do it in C you will most likely end up writing about 5000 lines of code
the benefit of doing it the hard way is it might run on legacy hardware that dont support glsl (need a really old card) even my old geforce 2 can do em (to some extent) but my voodoo2 breaks  |

Well, the only similarity is in the syntax... but if you meant whether the shaders were done in an assembly-style shader language or a non-assembly-style shader language, I guess you can say that... _________________ F.

By that reasoning, QuakeC, Java, etc etc are all programmed in C.
Sadly most people accuse it of being C++ but that's a different matter. :s _________________ What's a signature? |

A lot of languages are syntax-based on C, but they aren't C.
Also, any statement from Wikipedia should be considered with at a bit of salt. _________________ frag.machine - Q2K4 Project

bit more to it than that aye most code is in some form or another based on the standards like C/C++
say for example python is more of a script language with the capability of making programs but those programs will then depend on the python runtime dll to run.
glsl has a bit of the same behaviour but you dont really notice it because the runtime dll comes with your gfx card in form of an opengl interpreter.
and java has the same behaviour as spike pointed out
the benefit of glsl is it uses something that you allready have namely the drivers for your video card (i do hope you have em)  |

Try this one http://www.mediafire.com/?maqtng2ged5 (I've packed and tested it just a moment ago)
Thanks to new version of DarkPlaces water now can have glossy surface like on this picture
But now water looks very static, because you can see that it is just moving. So here is my question: does anybody know how to change script to add animation frames? |

The water looks like it's covered in fucking plastic.
Once more, with feeling. _________________

how does it look like its covered in plastic? it looks like the light in the map is reflecting off of the water making it shine and shimmer... _________________ QuakeDB - Quake ModDB Group |

Yay, I've been waiting for gloss on water surface support! Although, yes, it does look like plastic. DP really needs some form of control over gloss sharpness, so you can have water, metal, plastic and other sorts of gloss too... _________________ Look out for Twigboy |
