the matrix was a documentary
Still a ton of features left on my custom engine project, Degine, though I feel like the rendering has gotten to a good place. Took a few days to verify the existing features, and was able to find a couple of errors I had missed, mostly small nitpick
My solo 3D engine project looks like it’s getting close to being able to make a game (and also start releasing something) so hyped on that. This progress update is around 45 minutes, think my longest one yet, but good stuff inside. Showing the new mesh menu and
Ended up doing a remaster of the 30 second motion capture animation I published on Valentine’s Day. Perhaps a few frames that could be smoother, but this feels like basically production quality to me. Got about 200 videos clips from the studio recording, and this one loop took
Put together a new cyberpunk-themed scene in Degine so I have something “somewhat professional” looking to showcase at GDC 2026. Feel like the graphics are in a good spot, though I have about a month to do some optimization and clean-up the code (which is honestly full of
First developer vlog for 2026 is live. Mostly showcasing editor improvements for Degine, my custom OpenGL-based 3D engine I’ve been working on for nearly 3 years. Started integrating more radial menu icons (that were designed around 2 years ago) and prototyping the main user interaction. Most of the
People in the community had been asking about Stellar Blade, so decided to do a 3D video of the game with my ReShade 2D-to-3D effect Rendepth. While Stellar Blade actually does have an official stereoscopic patch from the developer, I was not able to record for YouTube when
Just got this banger new update for my 3D conversion ReShade effect called Rendepth. Code was pushed out to GitHub yesterday, and can be installed directly through the ReShade installer. The biggest change has been in (mostly) resolving the artifacts around discontinuities in depth (meaning glitches on first-person
Managed to get a good deal of work done while my internet was down for almost a week (it’s always something else). Just fixing bugs, and things that were half-working, so research was not required. Pretty amazing what you can accomplish just reading headers and with IDE auto-complete
Trying to validate and finalize all the shaders on my GL project. Still a bunch of editor features left to do, but the graphics are where I want so will just need to work on the boring stuff now and optimize. Brought back the old skin shader (screen-space
New demo showcasing a higher quality model with improved image-based lighting. Using spherical harmonics here (SH2), which I had from the beginning, but added automatic dominant light extraction when loading an HDRI image. This detects the sunlight, ambient environment lighting, and controls the shadowing. So basically everything in
