Script:Render() parameters

[nick.ace]

Does anyone know exactly what the Script:Render() parameters (diffuse, buffer, etc.) are? I'm trying to write some postprocess shaders, but I don't really understand what each of these parameters are and what type each is.

diffuse,depth, and normal are textures you can sample in your shader.

Thanks shadmar!

 

Is buffer that just a Lua table? If so, what does it contain when it is passed in?

Also, am I correct in assuming that the camera argument is just a camera object, or is it something else?

[shadmar]

buffer is the default buffer (which only allows disable/enable, but since deoth,normals and diffuse are already provided it's ok.

camera is the camera which will render the effect, can be viewport camera or FPSplayer runtime or the camera:AddPostEffect() you have done in code... so yes it's the camera rendering the effect.

Ok thanks! That makes more sense now.
