Still very early prototype, but game gods bless you for those placeholders !

Wireframe rendering shows how the terrain is moved on the fixed mesh. The shader is performing a bicubic Bézier interpolation on the 128x128 heightmap (as for all the previous posts made about terrains). #GodotEngine #shader #glsl #indiegame

Blue : Fixed Mesh moving along with the camera (36k vertices, 72k faces) White : 128x128 instances of 3x3 quads (262k vertices, 294k faces ). The fixed mesh is computed once and a shader "moves" the terrain on it based on the camera translation/rotation. #GodotEngine #solodev

I'm starting an article (or a series of articles) about making a workflow to create 3D animated characters into Godot. As a draft, i've made a quick experiment. It's a bit rough/unpolished, but tell me what you think about it. youtu.be/_ChIgQkp0Po #GodotEngine @GodotBarn

Right handed vs. Left handed keyboard mapping (when you can remap ...). #gaming #Accessibility

Well, it got to start somewhere ...

Simple 2D maze generator using #GodotEngine. #procgen #indiegamedev Code and example available at thegodotbarn.com/contributio…

Script prototype of daylight map: Amount of light the map get through the day. Missing: Indirect lighting(will depend on type of terrain), and taking water into account. Then, porting this in C++/OpenMP/AVX. #procgen #indiegamedev #solodev #GodotEngine

Used AVX to unlock usage of SSE2 extended CPU instruction set. The computation is twice as fast now. Lakes and rivers are computed using a "trick". It only takes 5ms. Irrigation map uses those data to determine where the vegetation thrive due to irrigation. #procgen #indiedev

Irrigation map computed using C++/OpenMP. The lakes and rivers only take less than 5ms to compute, but the irrigation requires to be spread using some rules. Too reach stable state requires ~200ms with a core i5-13th gen :/ Next step, vegetation ! #indiegame #solodev #procgen
