Made a new concept visual for my untitled debut game from Outmode on my OpenGL/WebGL engine, Degine. Generated using Midjourney 7, this is fairly close to my vision, and also matches the art for the game that was already completed. Planning on using this as a test to
I’ve ported my Rendepth shader to a ReShade plug-in for 2D-to-3D conversion of Windows PC games. Not every title has depth buffer access (needed for the depthmap reprojection) but some new games like Assassin’s Creed: Shadows are supported, and likely around 500 older titles should work. The video
Pretty sure I actually finished Rendepth, my new 3D media player and 2D-to-3D conversion app. For sure there are tons of features still on the table, but it feels feature complete and stable enough for a launch. The (somewhat long) video above demonstrates most of what’s working. At
Started working on Rendepth for real this time. Had two previous prototypes, one in OpenGL and one in an engine I won’t mention. I also have a command-line processor in Python (for the color depth estimation portion). This past week I decided to reboot fresh with SDL3 and
Rebooted work on Rendepth, my stereo 3D media player. Decided to go with SDL3 as the base, as it has a new cross-platform renderer (Vulkan, Metal, DirectX12), which will make things a bit easier. Needed something lightweight, so felt that starting from scratch rather than repurposing Degine code
Recently I modded my iPhone 15 Pro for glasses-free 3D, though haven’t had the chance to write a proper review. Surprisingly, I was able to buy what essentially looks like a screen-protector from overseas and slap it on the iPhone and it’s 3D. No joke. This does not
If you want to learn Lua, this is the book to get. It’s literally written by one of the guys that created the language, this is the authoritative source. There may be other books that cater to beginners, or are more focused on an application of Lua in
Been researching real-time indirect lighting and global illumination techniques recently, and was most interested in simpler methods that did not require extensive pre-computation steps. Evaluating indirect light in screen space is an obvious choice here, since it can be fully dynamic, and the performance cost is essentially fixed
So I decided to throw together some concept art for an idea I’ve had for a bit. Put this together with Midjourney, and it actually came out pretty close to what I had in my mind (well, much better). Was planning on publishing a smaller game with my
Decided to make a new profile pic for my social networks. Still the same character, but with an anime AI glow-up. This was a celebration of hitting 4,000 follows on Twitter. The image was created originally by rendering in real-time and then feeding that into the AI. I
