Create/Edit Custom Shader

keplerlander

hi everyone,

i'm a researcher in computer graphics and machine learning, and for a study i am working on i would need to generate a frame with every game entity drawn with a solid color, as is shown in the following image: alt text

i am a n00b in gta mods and scripts, but i am an expert in computer programming and computer graphics.

can you please give me some advice in how to hack the game graphics to accomplish my needs?

i am also a shader expert for opengl and directx, so for me it would be great to edit current or create new shaders for this purpose; also, generating a custom g-buffer for these colors would be the best thing i can hope for.

thank you.

Not sure if there's anyone here that has that knowledge. Long shot but you can try contacting the author of this article: http://www.adriancourreges.com/blog/2015/11/02/gta-v-graphics-study/

@stillhere thank you for your input, i read that article some times ago but didn't think about contacting the author.
i have just read that you can even inject a custom shader (well, sort of) within the rendering, so i'll have a try.

thanks.
