My erosion filter is out! Video, blog post, and shader source.
It emulates erosion without simulation, so it's fast, GPU friendly, and trivial to generate in chunks.

This is so stupid. Bsky blew up in popularity when Twitter introduced more AI shit and many had enough. We don't want algos or AIs to decide for us what is shown on our feed. We also don't want such things as optional because everyone knows how platform decay functions over time. Read the room.
Been wrapping up some final renders for my most recent project. Here's a side by side breakdown of some of the water shaders I made for the project! :)) 🌊
Greed coupled with piss poor management creates these issues. You don't build a factory for one big order then tear everything down and rebuild a new factory next time you get an order. Every industry faces similar problems but there are manufacturers who have survived for hundreds of years.
This is spot on.
We had some single ones over the years that nested in a hole in the wall. What's interesting is that this time there are 3 or 4 in a small swarm.
Some rare bees on my moms balcony. I think they are carpenter or wood bees. These things are huge chonkers.
At first look thought that would be local mobile phone or cable TV providers.
On a side note are we getting gaslit into thinking DLSS before that was good? Saw a lot of people praising fake frames and resolution. To me this was absolute jank in my experience so far, super unstable and ugly image quality. But then i don't have one of the most recent GPUs.
Are there any gamers on Bsky with a disability or people in their circle who can share their experiences or point me to good resources/websites/products for one handed gaming (specifically left hand)? Also recommendations for games/systems that are disability friendly would be much appreciated.
I unfollowed Sabine Hossenfelder for this sin.
As a game artist i hate the DLSS 5 stuff with every fiber of my being. It replaces the art that was crafted by an artist and sh*ts over it. In general, while not an anti AI absolutist, i'm against any img2img workflows for that reason. It's far crossing the line of what i find acceptable as a tool.

Awesome game! Finished it today. What would help with the longevity of the game imo: Trials, Challenges, Leaderboards, more mountains and walls, achievements for reaching milestones in free solo.
You really need the chalk irl playing free solo.
Just doing a little casual exploration in free solo mode (permadeath, no rope). #Cairn
This is the first game that i have discovered via bsky exclusively. Really enjoying it so far. Reminds me of the sections in Death Stranding when you climb some mountains.
Does the Twatter algo still punish people for following a lot of accounts?
First personal project of the year. Tiling bone pit mat. I use an atlas that i generated from a single photo with an experimental setup in Designer plus depth estimation (Moge2). I try to get close to Megascans quality with that but it's a bit hit and miss. #madewithsubstance #gameart #materials
Process animation from my Queen Victoria stamps substance. The portrait was based on the photo of a silver coin. Masks and hatching was generated procedurally inside Substance 3D Designer.

Saint Sebastian's Feast Day is a week away. 🫢
Are you ready to lean into the chaos that will be the 6th annual bake-this-random-Saint-into-a-bread-item experience?
Was searching for an account posting images of good looking pizzas for my interesting things starter pack. Apparently on bsky pizza means middle aged naked overweight dude. Every day i learn something new.
The industry will hopefully not be in such a shambles forever. People will remember who were good employers or contractors during those years and who was not.
"Vous n’êtes sûrement pas passés à côté de cette simulation d’escalade aussi réaliste que punitive."
"I'm sure you've heard of this climbing simulation thats as realistic as it is challenging."
Thanks @psinsidefr.bsky.social ! Hard core climbing, coming up!
Oh cool, someone is making a game that i thought about that it should be made.
Feel free to suggest people who would be a good fit. I specifically want to include a lot of things that aren't related to game dev/art at the first glance but can be inspiring.
I've added you to a new starter pack yesterday. bsky.app/starter-pack...
Copy/lerp. But i mostly work with height data.
It’s incredibly humbling to be name dropped in someone’s portfolio day post and always a joy to see someone use some of my reference photos to make art.
Go give Alex your support cos that’s some good work going on with that building and texturing.
