@Juanher50 Good shit, already watch him!

I can't seem to escape the cycle of creative binge and then burnout. I live in fear of the burnout phase, but I can't seem to stop myself from obsessively working when I'm not in one. I have ADHD and am strongly suspicious of autism. Anyone out there have advice for me?

I fucking love ao

Woooooooo, our tiny game about real-time GI & procgen and shipping Rust & Vulkan is finally out! 🎉🖖🦀

I keep meaning to show you guys how my water simulation shader is actually turning out but I just keep tweaking it instead.

@DigiHydra I cranked a coefficient 100x and thought it looked strange/interesting, but yes certainly not like water 😆

@sonic_ether Yes... and no? I'm sort of worried about what's causing the water to move like that??

Do you like my water simulation shader?

This coefficient that made it look more like water surely will make it look 100x more like water at 100x

@kendragon255 Videos look terrible too D:

@sonic_ether using a video instead of a gif

@ompuco no

oh my god please stop me from hyperfixating on this tail

@AHoussainate This could indeed be put in a shaderpack! I'm strongly considering working on this tech to include it in the redesign/rewrite of SEUS.

@sonic_ether wait might be stupid to ask, but can this be made into a shader x ressource pack on minecraft?

Been experimenting with heightfield-based water surface simulation, dissatisfied with the usual "ripples on a puddle" look that such simulations usually have

@SubsonicPaul BREH🥹

@sonic_ether Scratch that, how are YOU always so fucking cool

@Squares82532714 I certainly haven't abandoned it, but it isn't my main focus lately. I am still working on it but progress has been slow as it's in the process of a rewrite.

@sonic_ether Will you update SUES again or did you abandon the project?

A lot of the time I write/modify equations based on vibes. I'll end up with a solution and not know exactly why it works until I prove it to myself later. Is this a self-taught thing, or do formally educated nerds also do it this way?

@noscoper_sans @_Raptorr My main focus is game development, but I have been working on it on the side. I did reach a bit of a dead end with my latest work on it but I'm exploring some new options.

@sonic_ether @_Raptorr Just a question, will SEUS PTGI come back? Is it still in development or you already moved on?

I've been working on runtime procedural terrain generation for my game as a fresh #godot user. Here are some results of my experiments so far!

@reduzio @stephc_int13 I'm literally doing this as we speak 😆

@arvinmoses Thanks! Yep, no shadow casting yet.

@sonic_ether No shadow casting though right? The shapes are amazing.

Here's how my #GodotEngine runtime procedural landscape generation is turning out. There's still a ton to do but I'm pretty sure I'll be able to meet my performance target which is exciting!

@BattleAxeVR @kldclouds I've definitely given that some thought, but I think doing vector displacement might increase the complexity of erosion and queries for collision too much. Erosion might not be too bad, but thinking about having to search the displacement map for spatial queries freaks me out

@sonic_ether @kldclouds Using a displacement map instead of a heightmap is pretty straightforward. I've done it for my own terrain system. It also helps you reduce long triangle / uneven UV mapping related distortions (w/o triplanar mapping).
