Lighting doesn't show in OpenGL - opengl

I'm trying to do point source directional lighting in OpenGL using my textbooks examples. I'm showing a rectangle centered at the origin, and doing the lighting computations in the shader. The rectangle appears, but it is black even when I try to put colored lights on it. Normals for the rectangle are all (0, 1.0, 0). I'm not doing any non-uniform scaling, so the regular model view matrix should also transform the normals.
I have code that sets the light parameters(as uniforms) and material parameters(also as uniforms) for the shader. There is no per vertex color information.
void InitMaterial()
{
color material_ambient = color(1.0, 0.0, 1.0);
color material_diffuse = color(1.0, 0.8, 0.0);
color material_specular = color(1.0, 0.8, 0.0);
float material_shininess = 100.0;
// set uniforms for current program
glUniform3fv(glGetUniformLocation(Programs[lightingType], "materialAmbient"), 1, material_ambient);
glUniform3fv(glGetUniformLocation(Programs[lightingType], "materialDiffuse"), 1, material_diffuse);
glUniform3fv(glGetUniformLocation(Programs[lightingType], "materialSpecular"), 1, material_specular);
glUniform1f(glGetUniformLocation(Programs[lightingType], "shininess"), material_shininess);
}
For the lights:
void InitLight()
{
// need light direction and light position
point4 light_position = point4(0.0, 0.0, -1.0, 0.0);
color light_ambient = color(0.2, 0.2, 0.2);
color light_diffuse = color(1.0, 1.0, 1.0);
color light_specular = color(1.0, 1.0, 1.0);
glUniform3fv(glGetUniformLocation(Programs[lightingType], "lightPosition"), 1, light_position);
glUniform3fv(glGetUniformLocation(Programs[lightingType], "lightAmbient"), 1, light_ambient);
glUniform3fv(glGetUniformLocation(Programs[lightingType], "lightDiffuse"), 1, light_diffuse);
glUniform3fv(glGetUniformLocation(Programs[lightingType], "lightSpecular"), 1, light_specular);
}
The fragment shader is a simple pass through shader that sets the color to the one input from the vertex shader. Here is the vertex shader :
#version 150
in vec4 vPosition;
in vec3 vNormal;
out vec4 color;
uniform vec4 materialAmbient, materialDiffuse, materialSpecular;
uniform vec4 lightAmbient, lightDiffuse, lightSpecular;
uniform float shininess;
uniform mat4 modelView;
uniform vec4 lightPosition;
uniform mat4 projection;
void main()
{
// Transform vertex position into eye coordinates
vec3 pos = (modelView * vPosition).xyz;
vec3 L = normalize(lightPosition.xyz - pos);
vec3 E = normalize(-pos);
vec3 H = normalize(L + E);
// Transform vertex normal into eye coordinates
vec3 N = normalize(modelView * vec4(vNormal, 0.0)).xyz;
// Compute terms in the illumination equation
vec4 ambient = materialAmbient * lightAmbient;
float Kd = max(dot(L, N), 0.0);
vec4 diffuse = Kd * materialDiffuse * lightDiffuse;
float Ks = pow(max(dot(N, H), 0.0), shininess);
vec4 specular = Ks * materialSpecular * lightSpecular;
if(dot(L, N) < 0.0) specular = vec4(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
gl_Position = projection * modelView * vPosition;
color = ambient + diffuse + specular;
color.a = 1.0;
}

Ok, it's working now. The solution was to replace glUniform3fv with glUniform4fv, I guess because the glsl counterpart is a vec4 instead of a vec3. I thought that it would be able to recognize this and simply add a 1.0 to the end, but no.

How do I adjust the my GLSL code to add additional light sources?

In the code below I am trying to implement a fragment shader program for Phong:
// Inputs from application.
// Generally, "in" like the position and normal vectors for things that change frequently,
// and "uniform" for things that change less often (think scene versus vertices).
in vec3 position_cam, normal_cam;
uniform mat4 view_mat;
// This light setup would usually be passed in from the application.
vec3 light_position_world = vec3 (10.0, 25.0, 10.0);
vec3 Ls = vec3 (1.0, 1.0, 1.0); // neutral, full specular color of light
vec3 Ld = vec3 (0.8, 0.8, 0.8); // neutral, lessened diffuse light color of light
vec3 La = vec3 (0.12, 0.12, 0.12); // ambient color of light - just a bit more than dk gray bg
// Surface reflectance properties for Phong model below.
vec3 Ks = vec3 (1.0, 1.0, 1.0); // fully reflect specular light
vec3 Kd = vec3 (0.32, 0.18, 0.5); // purple diffuse surface reflectance
vec3 Ka = vec3 (1.0, 1.0, 1.0); // fully reflect ambient light
float specular_exponent = 400.0; // specular 'power' -- controls "roll-off"
// Shader programs can also designate outputs.
out vec4 fragment_color; // color of surface to draw in this case
void main ()
{
fragment_color = vec4 (Kd, 1.0);
}
I have two questions:
How do I add 2 additional directional light sources to my code? Do I simply add more vec3 Ld variables to my light setup or is there something else I must do?
How do I set the Phong exponent high enough to produce sharp and bright highlights?
In glsl you can use arrays and structures. Define an array of light sources. See Array constructors and Struct constructors:
const int no_of_lights = 2;
struct TLightSource
{
vec3 lightPos;
vec3 Ls;
vec3 Ld;
vec3 La;
float shininess;
};
TLightSource lightSources[no_of_lights] = TLightSource[no_of_lights](
TLightSource(vec3(10.0, 25.0, 10.0), vec3(1.0, 1.0, 1.0), vec3(0.8, 0.8, 0.8), vec3(0.12, 0.12, 0.12), 10.0),
TLightSource(vec3(-10.0, 25.0, 10.0), vec3(1.0, 0.0, 0.0), vec3(0.8, 0.0, 0.0), vec3(0.12, 0.0, 0.0), 10.0)
);
User a for loop to iterate through the light sources and sum up the light color for ambient, diffuse and specular light (e.g Phong reflection model):
void main()
{
vec3 normalInterp;
vec3 vertPos;
vec3 normal = normalize(normalInterp);
vec3 color = vec3(0.0);
for (int i=0; i < no_of_lights; i++)
{
color += Ka * lightSources[i].La;
vec3 lightDir = normalize(lightSources[i].lightPos - vertPos);
float lambertian = max(dot(lightDir, normal), 0.0);
color += lambertian * lightSources[i].Ld;
if (lambertian > 0.0)
{
vec3 viewDir = normalize(-vertPos);
vec3 reflectDir = reflect(-lightDir, normal);
float RdotV = max(dot(reflectDir, viewDir), 0.0);
float specular = pow(RdotV, lightSources[i].shininess/4.0);
color += specular * lightSources[i].Ls;
}
}
frag_color = vec4(color, 1.0);
}

Glitchy Facial Morph Target Animation in OpenGL (C++)

I've been trying to implement Morph Target animation in OpenGL with Facial Blendshapes but following this tutorial. The vertex shader for the animation looks something like this:
#version 400 core
in vec3 vNeutral;
in vec3 vSmile_L;
in vec3 nNeutral;
in vec3 nSmile_L;
in vec3 vSmile_R;
in vec3 nSmile_R;
uniform float left;
uniform float right;
uniform float top;
uniform float bottom;
uniform float near;
uniform float far;
uniform vec3 cameraPosition;
uniform vec3 lookAtPosition;
uniform vec3 upVector;
uniform vec4 lightPosition;
out vec3 lPos;
out vec3 vPos;
out vec3 vNorm;
uniform vec3 pos;
uniform vec3 size;
uniform mat4 quaternion;
uniform float smile_w;
void main(){
//float smile_l_w = 0.9;
float neutral_w = 1 - 2 * smile_w;
clamp(neutral_w, 0.0, 1.0);
vec3 vPosition = neutral_w * vNeutral + smile_w * vSmile_L + smile_w * vSmile_R;
vec3 vNormal = neutral_w * nNeutral + smile_w * nSmile_L + smile_w * nSmile_R;
//vec3 vPosition = vNeutral + (vSmile_L - vNeutral) * smile_w;
//vec3 vNormal = nNeutral + (nSmile_L - nNeutral) * smile_w;
normalize(vPosition);
normalize(vNormal);
mat4 translate = mat4(1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0,
0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0,
0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0,
pos.x, pos.y, pos.z, 1.0);
mat4 scale = mat4(size.x, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0,
0.0, size.y, 0.0, 0.0,
0.0, 0.0, size.z, 0.0,
0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
mat4 model = translate * scale * quaternion;
vec3 n = normalize(cameraPosition - lookAtPosition);
vec3 u = normalize(cross(upVector, n));
vec3 v = cross(n, u);
mat4 view=mat4(u.x,v.x,n.x,0,
u.y,v.y,n.y,0,
u.z,v.z,n.z,0,
dot(-u,cameraPosition),dot(-v,cameraPosition),dot(-n,cameraPosition),1);
mat4 modelView = view * model;
float p11=((2.0*near)/(right-left));
float p31=((right+left)/(right-left));
float p22=((2.0*near)/(top-bottom));
float p32=((top+bottom)/(top-bottom));
float p33=-((far+near)/(far-near));
float p43=-((2.0*far*near)/(far-near));
mat4 projection = mat4(p11, 0, 0, 0,
0, p22, 0, 0,
p31, p32, p33, -1,
0, 0, p43, 0);
//lighting calculation
vec4 vertexInEye = modelView * vec4(vPosition, 1.0);
vec4 lightInEye = view * lightPosition;
vec4 normalInEye = normalize(modelView * vec4(vNormal, 0.0));
lPos = lightInEye.xyz;
vPos = vertexInEye.xyz;
vNorm = normalInEye.xyz;
gl_Position = projection * modelView * vec4(vPosition, 1.0);
}
Although the algorithm for morph target animation works, I get missing faces on the final calculated blend shape. The animation somewhat looks like the follow gif.
The blendshapes are exported from a markerless facial animation software known as FaceShift.
But also, the algorithm works perfectly on a normal cuboid with it's twisted blend shape created in Blender:
Could it something wrong with the blendshapes I am using for the facial animation? Or I am doing something wrong in the vertex shader?
--------------------------------------------------------------Update----------------------------------------------------------
So as suggested, I made the changes required to the vertex shader, and made a new animation, and still I am getting the same results.
Here's the updated vertex shader code:
#version 400 core
in vec3 vNeutral;
in vec3 vSmile_L;
in vec3 nNeutral;
in vec3 nSmile_L;
in vec3 vSmile_R;
in vec3 nSmile_R;
uniform float left;
uniform float right;
uniform float top;
uniform float bottom;
uniform float near;
uniform float far;
uniform vec3 cameraPosition;
uniform vec3 lookAtPosition;
uniform vec3 upVector;
uniform vec4 lightPosition;
out vec3 lPos;
out vec3 vPos;
out vec3 vNorm;
uniform vec3 pos;
uniform vec3 size;
uniform mat4 quaternion;
uniform float smile_w;
void main(){
float neutral_w = 1.0 - smile_w;
float neutral_f = clamp(neutral_w, 0.0, 1.0);
vec3 vPosition = neutral_f * vNeutral + smile_w/2 * vSmile_L + smile_w/2 * vSmile_R;
vec3 vNormal = neutral_f * nNeutral + smile_w/2 * nSmile_L + smile_w/2 * nSmile_R;
mat4 translate = mat4(1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0,
0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0,
0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0,
pos.x, pos.y, pos.z, 1.0);
mat4 scale = mat4(size.x, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0,
0.0, size.y, 0.0, 0.0,
0.0, 0.0, size.z, 0.0,
0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
mat4 model = translate * scale * quaternion;
vec3 n = normalize(cameraPosition - lookAtPosition);
vec3 u = normalize(cross(upVector, n));
vec3 v = cross(n, u);
mat4 view=mat4(u.x,v.x,n.x,0,
u.y,v.y,n.y,0,
u.z,v.z,n.z,0,
dot(-u,cameraPosition),dot(-v,cameraPosition),dot(-n,cameraPosition),1);
mat4 modelView = view * model;
float p11=((2.0*near)/(right-left));
float p31=((right+left)/(right-left));
float p22=((2.0*near)/(top-bottom));
float p32=((top+bottom)/(top-bottom));
float p33=-((far+near)/(far-near));
float p43=-((2.0*far*near)/(far-near));
mat4 projection = mat4(p11, 0, 0, 0,
0, p22, 0, 0,
p31, p32, p33, -1,
0, 0, p43, 0);
//lighting calculation
vec4 vertexInEye = modelView * vec4(vPosition, 1.0);
vec4 lightInEye = view * lightPosition;
vec4 normalInEye = normalize(modelView * vec4(vNormal, 0.0));
lPos = lightInEye.xyz;
vPos = vertexInEye.xyz;
vNorm = normalInEye.xyz;
gl_Position = projection * modelView * vec4(vPosition, 1.0);
}
Also, my fragment shader looks something like this. (I just added new material settings as compared to earlier)
#version 400 core
uniform vec4 lightColor;
uniform vec4 diffuseColor;
in vec3 lPos;
in vec3 vPos;
in vec3 vNorm;
void main(){
//copper like material light settings
vec4 ambient = vec4(0.19125, 0.0735, 0.0225, 1.0);
vec4 diff = vec4(0.7038, 0.27048, 0.0828, 1.0);
vec4 spec = vec4(0.256777, 0.137622, 0.086014, 1.0);
vec3 L = normalize (lPos - vPos);
vec3 N = normalize (vNorm);
vec3 Emissive = normalize(-vPos);
vec3 R = reflect(-L, N);
float dotProd = max(dot(R, Emissive), 0.0);
vec4 specColor = lightColor*spec*pow(dotProd,0.1 * 128);
vec4 diffuse = lightColor * diff * (dot(N, L));
gl_FragColor = ambient + diffuse + specColor;
}
And finally the animation I got from updating the code:
As you can see, I am still getting some missing triangles/faces in the morph target animation. Any more suggestions/comments regarding the issue would be really helpful. Thanks again in advance. :)
Update:
So as suggested, I flipped the normals if dot(vSmile_R, nSmile_R) < 0 and I got the following image result.
Also, instead of getting the normals from the obj files, I tried calculating my own (face and vertex normals) and still I got the same result.
Not an answer attempt, I just need more formatting than available for comments.
I cannot tell which data was actually exported from Fasceshift and how that was put into the custom ADTs of the app; my crystal ball is currently busy with predicting the FIFA Wold Cup results.
But generally, a linear morph is a very simple thing:
There is one vector "I" of data for the initial mesh and a vector "F" of equal size for the position data of the final mesh; their count and ordering must match for the tessellation to remain intact.
Given j ∈ [0,count), corresponding vectors initial_ = I[j], final_ = F[j] and a morph factor λ ∈ [0,1] the j-th (zero-based) current vector current_(λ) is given by
current_(λ) = initial_ + λ . (final_ - initial_) = (1 - λ ) . initial_ + λ . final_.
From this perspective, this
vec3 vPosition = neutral_w * vNeutral +
smile_w/2 * vSmile_L + smile_w/2 * vSmile_R;
looks dubious at best.
As I said, my crystal ball is currently defunct, but the naming would imply that, given the OpenGL standard reference frame,
vSmile_L = vSmile_R * (-1,1,1),
this "*" denoting component-wise multiplication, and that in turn would imply cancelling out the morph x-component by above addition.
But apparently, the face does not degenerate into a plane (a line from the projected pov), so the meaning of those attributes is unclear.
That's the reason why I want to look at the effective data, as stated in the comments.
Another thing, not related to the effect in question, but to the the shading algorithm.
As stated in the answer to this
Can OpenGL shader compilers optimize expressions on uniforms?,
the shader optimizer could well optimize pure uniform expressions like the M/V/P calculations done with
uniform float left;
uniform float right;
uniform float top;
uniform float bottom;
uniform float near;
uniform float far;
uniform vec3 cameraPosition;
uniform vec3 lookAtPosition;
uniform vec3 upVector;
/* */
uniform vec3 pos;
uniform vec3 size;
uniform mat4 quaternion;
but I find it highly optimistic to rely on such assumed optimizations.
if it is not optimized accordingly doing this means doing it once per frame per vertex so for a human face with a LOD of 1000 vertices, and 60Hz that would be done 60,000 times per second by the GPU, instead of once and for all by the CPU.
No modern CPU would give up soul if these calculations are put once on her shoulders, so passing the common trinity of M/V/P matrices as uniforms seems appropriate instead of constructing those matrices in the shader.
For reusing the code from the shaders - glm provides a very glsl-ish way to do GL-related maths in C++.
I had a very similar problem some time ago. As you eventually noticed, your problem most probably lies in the mesh itself. In my case, it was inconsistent mesh triangulation. Using the Triangluate Modifier in Blender solved the problem for me. Perhaps you should give it a try too.

Sun shader not working

I'm trying to get a sun shader to work, but I can't get it to work.
What I currently get is a quarter of a circle/elipsis on the lower left of my screen, that is really stuck to my screen (if I move the camera, it also moves).
All I do is render two triangles to form a screen-covering quad, with screen width and height in uniforms.
Vertex Shader
#version 430 core
void main(void) {
const vec4 vertices[6] = vec4[](
vec4(-1.0, -1.0, 1.0, 1.0),
vec4(-1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0),
vec4(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0),
vec4(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0),
vec4(1.0, -1.0, 1.0, 1.0),
vec4(-1.0, -1.0, 1.0, 1.0)
);
gl_Position = vertices[gl_VertexID];
}
Fragment Shader
#version 430 core
layout(location = 7) uniform int screen_width;
layout(location = 8) uniform int screen_height;
layout(location = 1) uniform mat4 view_matrix;
layout(location = 2) uniform mat4 proj_matrix;
out vec4 color;
uniform vec3 light_pos = vec3(-20.0, 7.5, -20.0);
void main(void) {
//calculate light position in screen space and get x, y components
vec2 screen_space_light_pos = (proj_matrix * view_matrix * vec4(light_pos, 1.0)).xy;
//calculate fragment position in screen space
vec2 screen_space_fragment_pos = vec2(gl_FragCoord.x / screen_width, gl_FragCoord.y / screen_height);
//check if it is in the radius of the sun
if (length(screen_space_light_pos - screen_space_fragment_pos) < 0.1) {
color = vec4(1.0, 1.0, 0.0, 1.0);
}
else {
discard;
}
}
What I think it does:
Get the position of the sun (light_pos) in screen space.
Get the fragment position in screen space.
If the distance between them is below a certain value, draw fragment with yellow color;
Else discard.
screen_space_light_pos is not yet in clip space. You've missed perspective division:
vec3 before_division = (proj_matrix * view_matrix * vec4(light_pos, 1.0)).xyw;
vec2 screen_space_light_pos = before_division.xy / before_division.z;
With common proj_matrix configurations, screen_space_light_pos will be in [-1,1]x[-1,1]. To match screen_space_fragment_pos range, you probably need to adjust screen_space_light_pos:
screen_space_light_pos = screen_space_light_pos * 0.5 + 0.5;

GLSL Phong Shading not working

I am trying to use this tutorial for per-fragment shading and adapt it to GLSL #version 140. The results I am getting are obviously not correct. Seems to me that I am doing something wrong with the supplied normals, since there is a direct change between light and shade on some triangles which are next to each other on the same plane.
The vertex shader code:
#version 140
in vec3 position;
in vec2 texIn;
in vec3 normal;

Phong lighting model is not actually lighting anything

I currently have an assignment to implement the Phong Lighting Model in openGL / GLSL. The two shaders that I am currently working with are below. The problem is that in the fragment shader, if I do not add vColor to gl_FragColor then the entire shape is black. However, if I DO add vColor, then the entire shape is that color with no lighting at all. I have been trying to solve this for a couple of hours now to no luck. What is the reason for this? Is it a problem in my shaders, or a problem perhaps in the openGL code? I am using one material and one point light source, which I'll show after the shaders.
Edit: If I set gl_FragColor = vec4(N, 1.0) then the object looks like this:
vertex shader:
#version 150
in vec4 vPosition;
in vec3 vNormal;
uniform mat4 vMatrix;
uniform vec4 LightPosition;
out vec3 fNorm;
out vec3 fEye;
out vec3 fLight;
void main() {
fNorm = vNormal;
fEye = vPosition.xyz;
fLight = LightPosition.xyz;
if(LightPosition.w != 0.0) {
fLight = LightPosition.xyz - vPosition.xyz;
}
gl_Position = vMatrix * vPosition;

Your final lighting composition doesn't look right:
gl_FragColor = vColor + ambient + diffuse + specular;
It should be something like
gl_FragColor = vColor * (ambient + diffuse) + specular;
i.e. the illumination modulated by the albedo of the object.
