I butchered bistro to create a better demo level for my godot + blender pre-rendered background game dev tools. Good showcase for all the features like capsule shadows, camera rotation, and depth sorting. Next up is adding irradiance volumes to better light dynamic objects.

@kiaran_ritchie Modern vulcan requires a lot less loc than before but even if it didnt, there no shortage of the dreaded 1000 loc hello triangle example for claude to train on

@CodveAi @CtrlAltDwayne Ai writes shit cpp. Lambdas that get called once a few lines down from where they were declared, using vectors that could have been arrays, implicit string copies, etc.

@CtrlAltDwayne hot take but its actually c++ that benefits more from ai. rust forces you to think, c++ lets you get away with bad code - which is exactly where ai fills the gap. the chaos needs structure.

The best argument for Rust in 2026 is not memory safety or performance. It is that AI writes better Rust than it writes C++. The compiler feedback loop is so tight that models self-correct in real time. Every error message is a free training signal. Rust was accidentally designed for AI-assisted development 10 years before anyone knew that mattered.

@jsnnsa How are you going to manage asset size? Nobody is going to play a 100GB browser game that takes 1 hour to load. Better to focus on mesh decimation and texture compression instead of nanite-like lod system.

Every AI-generated 3D model is a performance disaster. They look great in a screenshot. They run at 4 FPS in a scene. And here's the thing nobody building "AI game engines" wants to talk about: their users don't know this. A non-dev will ask for a city with 1000 buildings and think that's a normal request. Because for them, it should be. The entire point of AI creation tools is that you don't need to know about draw calls, polygon budgets, or LOD hierarchies. You just describe what you want. Which means the engine has to be smart enough to make the naive request fast. That's what Renaud is building. Nanite-style virtualized geometry for AI-generated meshes, running in WebGPU, in a browser. So you can ask for a city with 1000 buildings and it will run at 120 FPS.
Renaud@onirenaud

After porting the Spawn renderer from WebGL to WebGPU, we decided to implement Nanite for AI-generated models. The first step is almost done: hierarchical clustered LOD based on NVIDIA vk_lod_clusters for meshlets. Currently too slow for sparse geometries. Continuing tomorrow.

@soonrightaway Pre-rendered backgrounds allow you to skip realtime optimization like lowpoly modeling, texture baking, shader optimization, LODs, visibility sets, etc. The artist workload for the same level of visual fidelity is actually much lower.

even if you’re doing a fixed camera/tank controls game in 2026 there’s very little reason to pre-render your environments anymore aside from retro nostalgia-baiting. real-time rendering allows you to be more dynamic and creative with the camera and locations too, if you want

@arnie_hacker Are you rendering the full match recording for each player? How do you sync dem file ticks to video frames?

my cs2 data pre-processor is working :) it takes full game recordings and the .dem file, then creates training clips when each player is alive I also render a debug view with time-aligned actions (keyboard/mouse) will do data shard writer and parallelized preprocessor next

srs DJ question - what compels yall to listen to an online mix nowadays (audio only, no video) now ? Is it a recognizability w the DJs name? the possibility of finding new trax? just something to toss on like radio? prep for if u want to see them dj live? genuinely curious.

@Dreamboum Actually the entire mansion is fully 3d modeled in the original remake. They project the pre-render on top of the 3d geometry. They do this for depth sorting and shadow casting.

I don't know if the AI community is ready for the sheer amount of bottom 50%ile engineers who get dropped, aren't able to secure equal paying work, and flip to becoming anti-AI activists on lines of "alignment".

@henningsanden Unity is bloated so i dont think godot should aim for feature parity. Imo the three biggest things missing are the plugin ecosystem, better networking features, and asset streaming. Godot works best for single player games where your entire game fits into memory.

@OPEN_SUNDAY Some underrated fixed-perspective camera games i never see get mentioned (i guess because theyre not “rendered” but chrono cross is also technically painted) are the bionicle flash games. Some of the best framing and composition ive seen.

collecting data for scaling up the cs:go world model i can say already if the model is bad it's because the data it trained on (my gameplay) is cooked💀

This is exactly what I wrote about. Jews are being targeted simply because they are Jewish. Not politics. Not policy. Just identity. If that doesn’t alarm you, you’re not paying attention. Or you’re choosing not to. nationalpost.com/opinion/canadi…

@ConRayArt The good news is ai will oversaturate and devalue spectacle. I think vfx heavy action movies will also see a decline in popularity.
