I am attempting to add volumetric shadowing to an application I am working on to test some things. For this effect I wrote the following fragment
shader:#version 450
in float visible;
in vec3 normal;//Normal to the vertex
in vec3 vertexPos;//True position of the vertex (i.e it's location in space)
in vec2 texture_coord;
out vec4 outColor;//Final color of the pixel
uniform sampler2D text;
uniform vec4 color = vec4(1);//Default color
uniform vec3 lum = vec3(80,70,0.1);//A unique light position
uniform vec3 cameraPos = vec3(0);//The position of the camera in the world
uniform vec3 cameraDir = vec3(0);
float sphereIntersection(vec3 ray, vec3 origin, vec3 center, float radius)
{
float a = dot(ray,ray);
float b = -2*dot(center, ray)+2*dot(ray,origin);
float c = -2*dot(origin,center)+dot(center,center)
-radius*radius+dot(origin,origin);
float discriminant =b*b - 4*a*c;
float t, t1, t2;
if(discriminant < 0)
{
return -1;
}
else
{
t1=(-b-sqrt(discriminant))/(2*a);
t2=(-b+sqrt(discriminant))/(2*a);
}
if(t1<0 && t2>=0)
t1=t2;
else if (t1>=0 && t2<0)
t2=t1;
return min(t1,t2);
}
void main()
{
vec3 l = vec3(lum-vertexPos);
if(length(l)>0)
l = normalize(l);
vec3 c = vec3(texture(text,abs(texture_coord)));
vec3 n = normalize(normal);
vec3 e = cameraPos-vertexPos;
e = normalize(e);
vec3 h = normalize(e+l);
outColor = vec4(c*(vec3(0.5)+0.5*max(0,dot(n,l))) + vec3(0.1)*max(0,pow(dot(h,n), 100)), 1);
float t = sphereIntersection(vec3(90,70,1)-vertexPos, vertexPos, vec3(80,80,3), 6);
if(t>0.01)
{
outColor = vec4(t/100,0,0,0);
}
}
The issue is as follows, in the next image there's 2 shadows:
However as you can see, there's only one sphere and only one source of light and they are both hard coded, so I do not understand where the second shadow comes from (the one that does not have the circle).
