What I did today

Miscellaneous Topics
#1321

Used the Virtual Box to install Ubuntu. It looks really amazing :o

#1322

So I made a heightmap loader. I guess next step is lighting.
(The lighter parts are just a side effect of the mipmapping of the grass texture I am using).

#1323

are you using a geometry shader for that?

#1324

Hazzah! finished my particle generator. Just for a test I did I had 3 spawn locations each with 200k particles , I had an fps of 500. Ill share the code after I implement a bit more circular nature to it.

#1325

My limited math would guess that he interpolates between A and B using a Hermite curve. I remember reading a good website on it a while ago, of which I cannot find :(.

#1326

Thanks for telling me how though , itā€™s a beautiful effect and itā€™s extremely smooth aswell.
I was thinking of generating a random point at a point along the line and then create a bezier curve path along it.

#1327

Finally finished my particle system. But anyways here is the code behind it have fun!
Particle Demo

#1328

Bought this :

#1329

I searched for the constant: GL_TEXTURE_1D_ARRAY in GL11 in lwjgl3, it drove me crazy.
After what felt like half the day i coppied it to google to search for itā€¦

GL_TEXTURE_1Dā€‹_ARRAY

I have no clue how I made thatā€¦ is there a shortcut on the keyboard?

Now with normal blood-pressureā€¦

Nope. Didnā€™t really need one.

Just a bit of rotation hackery will do the trick.

I wasted several ours on this:


Bullet::Bullet(Spritesheet *sheet, etc, etc..){
	this->spritesheet = spritesheet;

Thats what i did todayā€¦ wooo.
(C++, but still something i did today!)

#1332

I forgot GL11.glEnable( GL11.GL_TEXTURE_2D ); and searched for 2 hours why my texture was so whiteā€¦

So, i continued today to review some personnal stuff using old fixed pipeline openGL with more modern versionā€¦ i have to work on it for some times :-/

#1333

Found the smoking gun in my broken texture mapping code.

#1334

Gl with Blender Olo, is it an amazing program once you get it down

#1335

Started to learn myself how to draw pixel art over the last days.
Came up with this little knight, still not satisfied with his arms but Iā€™m happy with how it looks anyways.

p.s: I hate jpg even more from now on.

From left to right,
1600x900@60Hz 20", 1920x1080@60Hz 27"
The placement of the main-panel has been swapped to the right monitor since this picture was taken.

Got a second monitor (the big one). This is practically a TV screen! Very excited for the efficiency boost.

Did some more updates with my particle shader, got some pretty nice effects.

Good work, nice style! Youā€™re right about the arms, the black confuses them with the helmet slot, considered more definition in the body and following that through to the arms - shading front and back arms significant shades of grey different would pull the separation through too.

Cheers,

Thank you for your criticism, It really helped me out! I added more detail to the body and worked on the arms.
The main problem I had was drawing the second arm since it is a bit obscured by the first one. But I think it ended up nicely.

First of all:

Looks awesomeeee.

And hereā€™s my work for today:
Started on my gameā€™s map creation sculpting tool.
