Hi Mathieu,
did you see any progress sofar?
I guess you allready know Andy Nicholas Postlight?
http://www.andynicholas.com/thezone/index.php?area=downloadinfo&app=XSI5&file=0
and the Taron/Spoeth ZBornToy:

Both arenÂt strictly realtime but still interesting in their
approach, should at least be inspiring in terms of splitting
up a "realistic realtime shader" into components and
identifying the required buffers/passes/calculations?
Personally, I wonder why something like postlight
(in a streamlined implementation) isnÂt the default
way of the viewport giving user feedback?
Whatever, instead of just mimicking ZBrushÂs (beautiful)
viewport/shaders, IÂd love to have that coupled with
a full-throttle control for lights, surfaces and reflections...
Including "satellite nodes" for extra viewport redraw...
Cheers
tim
