Added some lightning ⚡️

@BruiserWolf @mikeklubnika Game we’re making called Deep State, posted a link to the Steam page in the comments 👍

@FrogmanDev @mikeklubnika What game is this?

After being on the back burner for a few months the texture regions are finally working Lets us draw shapes directly on textures to tag areas by material type, each having unique bullet hole decals, impact sfx, particles, and other surface-specific behavior 👽

Wishlist DEEP STATE on Steam 🛸 store.steampowered.com/app/2788210/DE…

Somehow, #DERELIKT got a @noclipvideo documentary!? Surreal! 🤯 Check it out: youtube.com/watch?v=8auTT5…

Vertex colors my beloved... They give me life. They improve the look of my PS1 games so much. Here are some tips from years of doing around with them in Blender...

Hazmat goons ☣️ Haven't decided on the color scheme yet

@PerfectionNV Not that I want to make public just yet. We're still working on this with essentially zero budget so most of the team is part-time and schedules fluctuate, makes timelines really hard to lockdown accurately 🥲

@FrogmanDev Any ideas on a projected release timeframe? I cannot wait for your game 🙏🏻

Meet the Paleweaver. He's a little upset about being born an upside-down flesh tree that has to walk on his hands. He vents his frustration by jumping on the ceilings and walls and puking acid on whoever he feels like puking on. #neurostate #uzdoom #indiedev #solodev

Saw this and now I long for claustrophobic low-vis gasmask vibes

@oopsallsolace @Hennejoe oh yah bigtime

@FrogmanDev @Hennejoe Does that mean you use Vertex Colors for lighting?

When the water caustics keep spreading 🫨

Hey!! Figured it's time to update the pinned post I'm Solace and I'm working on Legion of Honor: a spiritual successor to the classic PS1-era Medal of Honor games. The project's come a long way since the last pinned post, I'll be marking milestones by pinning them from now on!!

@MschulmeisterM No engine quirks but I plan to add some grunge so I left room to allow for more variation - totally true that you could pack this down much more efficiently though 💯

@FrogmanDev Hi i was wondering about the repetition with seemingly no visual variation on the texture, is there an engine thing or another system you're using that requires unique uvs for all surfaces? Just a genuine question not a critique as your work is very nice 👍

I create a separate VC channel in blender and then paint a black and white mask to control the limits of the caustics. Then you need to convert those colors to a new set of UVs which can then be referenced in a unity shader. Unity mesh's can only have a single set of vertex colors (which I use for lighting) so the UV trick is the only solution I've been able to find. You can convert VC > UV using an addon called Vertex Color Master.

@FrogmanDev @Hennejoe Looks awesome, I would've never thought about doing caustics in the vertex colors! How would you limit the effect to specific areas? Another color channel in the vertex colors?

@Hennejoe The shader uses scrolling noise to offset the existing vertex colors which gives it a warbling effect, so the VC themselves aren't technically animated

@FrogmanDev How do you animate the vertex colour? I tried once a while ago and got something workable just from keyframing different values in probuilder but it was a bit of a pain
