the matrix was a documentary
Made this long-ass developer update for my OpenGL engine, Degine. Lots of info in the video, but I’m working on the character animation mostly and fixing bugs with stuff that was mocked up before. Graphics are in a good place (aside from the glitches), need to flesh out
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
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
Quick update on Degine, my in-house OpenGL engine. Most of the shaders were finished a few months ago, though I’ve been working on various optimizations behind the scenes. Performance is quite stable, at least on high-end desktop, right now (watch the embedded video). Still needs some work on
In the past week I’ve made some major breakthroughs with the performance on Degine, my custom OpenGL / WebGL 3D engine. Did a lot of reading on performance and optimization guides, like on the ARM and Nvidia websites, specifically for OpenGL ES3 performance on mobile. Also integrated a
I spent the last two days adding GPU compressed texture support to Degine, my custom OpenGL / WebGL 3D engine. I tried a few formats, but ended up going with ASTC, since it was the only one that appears to be supported on both desktop and web. While
