Project Stardust

System Generation with random seed:

@psychicparrot Taking same ray cast approach with my AI. It’s tedious work. :) yours looks great though

I enjoyed streaming so much I am hopping on again in 20 min and streaming late into the night making bug fixes/changes. Might be interesting to someone? youtu.be/x5Gwbe9pf1w

@GranTuring You can catch me next time! Haha I think I was talking about floating point precision here and how it can mess with tracking ;)

@XWingVR Sorry I missed this, I bet it was awesome! Were you talking about some flight maneuvers in that screenshot? 😂

Thanks to all who dropped in on my development stream. Let me know if you'd like me to do more, I had a lot of fun!

It's up, first time doing this so hit me up if there are issues on your end.

Stream will be up momentarily, having some connection issues.

Want to see behind the scenes of how Project Stardust is made? I'll be streaming some Survival development on youtube here in about 30 min, join me! youtu.be/JFAf6tHWVIE

@bmfshow Should be in the “customize” section of your theme in the Wordpress dashboard.

Anyone have an easy way to change the font color for the menu in WordPress? Can't figure it out lol.

Recorded playing with mouse and keyboard in 2D mode

First look at alpha version of Survival. I died before I got to jump to next star system! Stay tuned for more. #ProjectStardust #VR #madewithunity

This is now a fully armed and operational battle station

Finally got around to resurfacing the death star:

@Thrilluwu I can say with confidence that the tools to create VR games that are compatible w/all devices are not mature enough. Also companies design the tools to be specifically walled-in to specific hardware to keep you in their ecosystem. Makes dev real hard for cross platform,l

If you’re releasing your multiplayer only game as an Oculus exclusive you’re setting your game up for failure atm. Cross platform, multi-platform games need to be the norm. VR is too small to rely on one hardware’s user base.

@Thunder_Owl A group of aces willing to be the experimental test pilots for the coming update, there should be a sign up sheet in my Twitter history if you look hard enough :)

@XWingVR And what is that group?

If you signed up for Gold Squadron test group forever ago, be on the lookout for an email sometime next week ;)

@markkingsnorth @blendermarket Im curious about the output of the nebula generator, it looks like I could export to Unity for skybox renderings; but could it feasibly be used to create a mesh for a static object in game, or is poly count going to be extremely high? Great work btw! Love ur blender addons

The @blendermarket #CyberWeekend has begun! Get 25% off all my #b3d add-ons at bit.ly/3l9TcgY for #BlackFriday through until Monday. These add-ons continue to improve with your support, and you even help the #blender Foundation too. Many thanks!

@Blissgig Doesn’t this require rewriting all physics to entity system? That’s really my biggest reservation is how much I’ll have to rewrite for DOTS; no doubt it would increase performance for me.

@XWingVR You may want to consider using DOTS for the background TIE fighters.

Stress test 500 TIE fighters..... Recorded @ 2 FPS :)

@psychicparrot I also leave an abnormally large pile of unused paid Unity assets in my wake... maybe one day I’ll justify the expense ;)

@psychicparrot It's so difficult. I find myself going "down the rabbit hole" quite often with scope creep.
