Liquid Dragon's job on the toy soldier franchise was to upgrade the graphics engine to DX11 generation graphics as well as add support for next-gen consoles. The previous engine was DX9 generation code or older so a lot of re-architecting was necessary. We also had to implement a series of new features to take advantage of next-generation graphics. Specific tasks included: Writing a new layered material terrain texturing system as well as the accompanying tool suite. Developing a new UV mapping solver to prevent UV stretching issues on the terrain heightfield. Porting the rendering pipeline to PS4. Implementing a new exponential shadow maps system that was more suited to the scale of the game's environments. Developing a large scale vegetation system with wind waves simulation. Implementing HBAO as a post-process pass. Implementing tone mapping as a post-process pass. Implementing depth of field as a post-process pass. Adding support for decals. Adding support for enhanced lighting features. re-writing the animation system to avoid previous popping artefacts. Fixing a number of graphical bugs and issues. Performance optimization.
