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.

Every single senior engineer that I have talked to in the last two weeks has had what I would call "existential melancholy." Our all-company meeting last Monday had the phrases "staring down the barrel of the end of our careers" and "preparing for the threat of rogue AI" spoken in total seriousness.

Here are some techniques I discovered through 14 years of shader programming:

OneShader The online shader editor. Create and share real-time procedural art with just one WebGL shader. Joy is in the craft.

Beautiful!

I just added twigl support to oneshader.net! :)
And I’m really eager to keep improving the platform, so if you want to test it out and share some feedback, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

The RenderQueue - Sportswear IBL combined with pre-baked shadow and ao maps

New (old) prototype online renderqueue.dev/sportswear-c...

Hi! Thanks for the feedback, and yes: I understand. I probably won't change the canvas size for historical reasons, but I could add an option to crop/resize to a non-square aspect ratio on export. Not sure if that helps?

WebGPU SDF Editor: Real-Time Signed Distance Field Modeling - reindernijhoff.net This is a guest post on my website. It is written by Johan Holwerda about the SDF editor he built for the RenderQueue. I’ve been working on a WebGPU-based SDF editor for modeling using signed distance...

Hi @iquilezles.bsky.social , when I try to use the API, I always get an error message. Is this something Pol and you are aware of, and are going to fix? Is there something I can help with?

hi @mmalex.bsky.social , have you ever taken a look at Dittytoy dittytoy.net/ditty/243733... ?

Yes, I think the API doesn’t work with the cloudflare protection in place. This is something @iquilezles.bsky.social should have a look at.

Slides from my SIGGRAPH 2025 and CEDEC 2025 talks “Fast as Hell: idTech 8 Global Illumination”, are now publicly available through the Advances in Real-Time Rendering in Games course. Lecture recordings will be available soon on the course's YouTube channel.

Ohjee, moet ik me nu in screenrecorders gaan verdiepen... :(

Gelukkig is het op dittytoy.net zelf gewoon met geluid!
