I dislike the word nonplussed.

I want it to mean unfazed - and some people do use it that way, because those people are correct - but the original meaning is "perplexed", which is stupid.

I thought I was the only one! It’s infuriating that the actual definition is almost the opposite of the usual use. Maybe we need to invent a new word for “unfazed and on the edge of bored”

Do you mean Mario Wonder is an example of it looking not so good? If so I agree… what looks and feels do you like better? It seems like water can act in infinitely different ways.

I’ve been working for a few weeks on a thing. Here is a quick summary of where it stands so far. youtu.be/MPoE8SH8Ous?...

I’m building out a bunch of water vfx atm…do you have any example real or otherwise of what you are thinking?

I'm looking for a Unity-based Content Designer to help on our Greek Myth community sim.

Ah yeah…if you’re not animating you can ignore a lot of that stuff :) best of luck on the project I’ve been enjoying watching your work

Almost forgot…this is a great one to watch before setting up your rig youtu.be/ws8oWmBbo_s?...

Have you seen the whole “when you hate the world get something to eat…hate yourself take a shower thing?” It’s simple but a great through line for me. From someone in an intense production loop atm hang in there, nothing wrong with you and we can do hard things💪❤️

My take at the moment is that all the new shiny tech is great but it won’t play nicely in the playground. It’s been a big time saver for me to just use the new tools as reference and key frame in blender with a clear/clean export to Unity.

Having a totally separate control rig works well in blender and exports pretty well to cascadeur but I’ve found it super frustrating to key animations in blender, bake to the control rig and then export to the engine.

So far, I like using a rigify metarig for easy initial setup. Add any custom bones. Including a non-deforming control rig inside the metarig seems to work best for exporting to engine but not cascadeur and rokoko. I’ve settled on importing mocap and ai assist anim as 3D ref to my blender/engine rig

Pierrick is more aligned to blender for film but he has a decent amount of engine info and CGDive is all about blender to engine…he really likes rigidly which I am not totally sold on. I’m currently trying to perfect a pipeline that keyframes in blender can easily work with Cascadeur/Rokoko/engine

Blender to Game Engines (Unreal, Unity, Godot etc.) If you are interested in Exporting character (or rigged/skeletal meshes) from Blender 2.8 or 2.9 to any game engine, I think you'll find this ongoing series ...

The two best all around (that I’ve used) are CGdive and Pierrick Picaut on YouTube. Specifcally: youtube.com/playlist?lis... and youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Are you going to rig in Blender? I can point you to some good resources if you’re interested…rigged 2 characters in the last week :)

More physics-based tackling tests This is all done purely with physics, there are no animations, or "magic" forces keeping the players upright.

I was halfway through an intense sculpting project this weekend when I got stomach flu…2 days of fever dreams of smooth brush and verts getting stuck inside the hull.

Im just 98 followers away from 100 — and I think with your help and some really bad posts I can get there.

18x24 poster for the 30th Anniversary of Myst. Features a vignette of Myst Island in the center, facing the library, with four corner vignettes of the four ages of Myst: Stoneship, Channelwood, Selenitic, and Mechanical. Features the word "MYST" and the D'ni numeral for "30." Drawn in an illustrative style with prominent lineart.

This imagery has been indelibly inscribed on the inside of my eyelids since I was a kid, so it was an absolute joy bringing it to life in a more official capacity:

Interspecies milk consumption The consumption of milk between species is not unique to humans. Seagulls, sheathbills, skuas, western gulls and feral cats have been reported to directly pilfer milk from the elephant seals' teats.

next game idea

Feral cat with elephant seal milk is just what the boring crafting game space needs right now

I mean it’s bad enough to have…memories…thank god it was mostly undocumented!

I love that I still get emails from teachers who use Fantastic Contraption (2007!) in class.

Happy to provide them with copies. My high-school computers class certainly changed my life.

100% this! I was just having the conv with my wife last night things are a “trudge” right now. That said, trudging feels like a privilege compared to the times when the universe is knocking you down the hill and you haven’t stopped rolling yet. So, trudge and smile about it when possible.
