RED_SIM

Light Volumes v.2.0.0 released! Now it has Light Volume based super optimized analytical Point Lights, Spot Lights and Area Lights. (Up to 128 at the same time) Ability to project images and cubemaps. Also baked shadow masks and even more features! github.com/REDSIM/VRCLigh… #VRChat #Gamedev #Unity #Shader #VR

@MidinVal @VRChat To be honest, I liked more ARG-like gameplay that was in the worlds that participated in the event. It was less obvious to find and solve then the main story. But everything was really good so far!

@RED_SIM @VRChat Hey Congrats on completing it, what was your favourite part of the event?

Just completed "Venture into the (Un)known" @VRChat event and discovered all the secret tapes!

GPU Infinite Grass まじでよすぎる

@Sairenix @VRChat I did! Thanks :3

@RED_SIM @VRChat Hope you enjoyed!

@Dreamconnectxr @TwashTheMan Have no idea if it works in VRChat, btw

@Dreamconnectxr @TwashTheMan Nope. Also never used one. I know there was a solution called amplify impostors, you can check it

I think I have enough improvement ideas to make VRC Light Volumes 3.0. But more features means more if's and for's, which increases shader compilation time dramatically. Would be really nice to have global keywords specifically for Light Volumes, which would solve this issue.

@TwashTheMan I'm thinking about it, but it might be too tricky and can have some performance drawbacks.

@RED_SIM Any plan for octree volumes?

@DynamicPudding @WispiWoo Thanks! I think that the ones from VRC team who are responsible for it, are just skeptical about integrating systems made by community members, even the open-source ones. Also they might not be really interested in it. But that's just my assumption.

@RED_SIM @WispiWoo Honestly, vrchat should be eating out of the palm of your hands. Light volumes has done wonders for optimization and being able to find cheeky ways to get stunning results for cheap. Is there no one over there that’s tapped your shoulder in DMs after releasing LV?

@sampavlovic Is it something like a bvh 3D texture structure? How do you sample it? Looks very problematic... lots of samples per fragment potentially.

@RED_SIM That will happen

more balls

Alone on an island... On this brand new contemplative world, Dawn Beyond, I am currently using @RED_SIM new foliage script, and the results are breathtaking. Don't hesitate to buy it to optimize your projects! 🌿✨ #VRChat #VRChat_world紹介 #HexalabImmersive

@jettelly Hey! Sure, it would be great!

@RED_SIM Hey! Do you mind if we make this a blog post? 👀

Updated my world [Unity only] with @RED_SIM's new grass update. I definitely recommend using this for guys' future nature worlds! I'll be defo using it for my Porter worlds. This won't be going live but will retain in my private version for now. 🙃#VRChat #VRChat_world紹介 #VRC

@VonVRC You'll probably need to tweak the grass color after you update. It will change slightly because I changed how the grass behaves with lighting.

wow I'd love to update the world with this

@Dreamconnectxr Yes, I never saw new manufactured ones

@RED_SIM Oh so you got your hands on original Tubes, not a new manufacturing? Super cool!

IN-14 nixie VS IN-16. Maybe I should make a larger divergence meter?

@Dreamconnectxr These are original soviet IN-16 and IN-14 tubes. Was still relatively easy to drive. (Thanks!)

@RED_SIM Oh wow, had no idea you were into analog stuff too! Are these AliExpress number tubes? Where they easy to drive? (Your GPU grass is amazing!)
