@panoskarabelas Indeed but I already have too many discord to follow 🫠.
English
@CameleonTH Discord is the answer if you want high quality videos.

Today I implemented underwater effects, like volumetrics and caustics. 🌊
The caustics aren't a fake projected texture, they're generated from the FFT ocean, so they respond to the wave simulation.

Today I added buoyancy. 🌊🔼 I'm using PhysX, which doesn't include buoyancy, but even if it did, I still would have implemented my own. This solution reads directly from the FFT ocean data by copying it to a lower resolution texture (to keep memory and performance in a good place).

@CameleonTH I'm not familiar with S2's smart props, but judging by how Valve were one of the first to use hotspot texturing I wouldn't be surprised if they have a bunch of smaller tools like this. Absolutely brilliant. Wonder if I can replicate this in Godot somehow

Zoo level workflow update!
Smoothed out the drag&drop system with a few UX improvements:
- Anchor points to chain props (like pipes)
- Highlight/darkening system for draggable objects
- Separated translation/rotation gizmos for clarity

@nesovdaniel Smart Props are very powerful, they allow the user to define rules applied to meshes, thereby enabling them to draw props simply by using gizmos.
English
@nesovdaniel Thanks, I still have a few ideas for improving the UX. Ultimately, my goal is to achieve a system similar to the "smart props" in the Source 2 engine.
English
@CameleonTH Nice polish on the drag‑and‑drop—those anchor points and the clear gizmos make tweaking a zoo feel super intuitive!
English
@kenjiimaru I setup them in the the zoo level, it's just a 3d point to add so it's not a complicated.
English
@CameleonTH How to set-up the anchor points? Auto import from exported models with placeholders? Like Unreals import of colliders by name?!
English
@CameleonTH Our own new technique. It's like lightmapping, but way more advanced.

@Dispatch_Graph Mais non c'était juste le nouveau concert son et lumière de Jean Michel Jarre 😁

@RetroSpaceGame @roger_creus_art I don't care, I'll play both 😁

Not expecting Half-Life 3:
- If you're right, you can feel good about being right.
- If you're wrong, who cares, you're playing Half-Life 3.

@_mamoniem No, they ahave enough passion to continue to create game's magic 😁. Keep hoping
English
@CameleonTH maybe...maybe not... epic lost the passion and magic that initially introduced it to my world.

thought about checking the UE6.0 folder size. this is basically the size after running through the basic steps:
- github clone
- run Setup.bat
- run GenerateProjectFiles.bat
- build in VS for Win64 DevelopmentEditor "ONLY"
Folder goes from 750MB (raw github clone) to 293GB!!

@_mamoniem Is the editor still heavy? I mean the transition from UE4 to UE5 was brutal about occuped space. What about UE6? Any good on this?
English
@_mamoniem Or maybe they'll just reduce their size and create their own game like in good old times.
English
@CameleonTH we can't blame an engine that is in his last iteration :D (i don't think there will ever be UE7, UE6 is the last engine from Epic before they bankrupt and switch to toy company or a restaurant franchise)
English
@CameleonTH gosh! daily prayers that none of my PC get RAM or SSD issues any soon :D
English
@_mamoniem Half of the price is only for the RAM 😬.
A kidney will be not enough for buy 32Gb of RAM
English
@CameleonTH in the past, you could have owned a PC + 2 or 3 other consoles. i think soon, you'll need to sell a kidney to get the same amount of devices under the same roof :D

@iamdevloper Docker is the real world for processes running in it.
