I love when you can tell a level designer was at the end of their rope at one point

i pretty much rebuilt the whole thing

Starting a thread to keep all my UNDERGROWTH stuff in. One nice easily scrollable pinned post.

Product Design used to be a thing

I have been working on data inheritance recently. The kind of stuff that you usually see with prefabs, but I believe that all the assets should support data inheritance.

experimenting with a new enemy in City of None with @liamberry.ca

(haven't done the creature art yet, not sure what it's gonna look like)

New blog post: A Decade of Slug

Cairn - Technical Breakdown - Rock Rendering, Anthony Beyer I was lucky to work on Cairn as Technical Art Director, and now that the game has been released, I thought it might be interesting to share some of its "development secrets". At the beginning, i want...

Havok for Unreal support for Unreal 5.7.3 was released on Tuesday 17th Feb, following the release of the Unreal hotfix on 10th Feb.
This update is fully supported and ready for customers to upgrade.

Easy to pick up but hard to master! Check out our latest dev update and follow for more.

We’re dismantling a stone pencheck stair right now and so it seems a good time to revisit a short 🧵 on the subject.

How pencheck stairs work (resist torsion), and how they don’t (cantilever):

It’s on my list too 🙄 but I think either you do it with 1 particle per blade just for placement, and it‘s not much different than what you have now, or a ribbon per blade, and you might need particle constraints, which are not implemented. Unless your blade motion is not simulated but procedural.

tried to make a soap bubble shader (in bevy)

Now do the same thing with particles! 😉

the principles are similar just different software
basically distance field texture then animate in a shader

Some character designs/sculpts from *checks watch* 15 years ago?!?!? These were heavily influenced by animation maquettes by Kent Melton (RIP) and Team Fortress 2.

My thought too, it’s a bit immersion breaking. Even if I instinctively dissociate the car in the menu from the one in the world when the menu opens (even though there‘s no reason to), when it closes it breaks that dissociation and highlights that the car in the world was being rotated.

I was noodling away on prototyping an opalescent
glass material in #Toolbag for a 1930s Art Deco style perfume case. I'm trying out a specular reflectance workflow to add that soft iridescent, thin-film shimmer. Still plenty of modelling left, but I'm happy with the direction the look is going in
