Procedural GPU Pattern #GodotEngine #gamedev tutorial 6 adds octave animation to fractals, using temporal lacunarity to scale their animation speed. We also use staggered animation to animate our fractal hash in a more pleasing way. catlikecoding.com/godot/proced...
Animating Octaves
Animate fractal octaves independently, in Godot Engine 4.

My upcoming #GodotEngine tutorial adds animation to our fractal hash.
Custom SRP 7.1 #unity3d #gamedev tutorial refactors our shadow code. A bit dry, but prepares it for specialized render passes for directional and other shadows. catlikecoding.com/unity/custom...
Custom SRP 7.1.0
A Unity tutorial about upgrading to Unity 6.5.

In Procedural GPU Patterns #GodotEngine #gamedev tutorial 5 we make our own little shader library and use it to create fractals from both sine waves and hashes. catlikecoding.com/godot/proced...
Shader Library
Reuse shader code for multiple shaders, in Godot Engine 4.

Next week we're going to take a look at the map generation of Hex Map and start modernizing it.
Got a report that tutorial video clips didn't play for some specific browser, and it turned out that... video controls failed when CSS contain was used. But of course!
True Top-Down 2D #GodotEngine #gamedev tutorial series got a small update, now for Godot 4.7 starting from part 13. Line points are now accessed via methods. catlikecoding.com/godot/true-t...
True Top-Down 2D
A beginner-level tutorial series that goes through the creation of a simple true top-down 2D game, using the Godot 4 engine.

Part 4 of the Procedural GPU Patterns #GodotEngine #gamedev series introduces hashing. We implement a simplified version of the 32-bit xxHash algorithm. We also create float values by directly putting bits in their mantissa. catlikecoding.com/godot/proced...
Hashing
Use hashing to fill space with pseudorandom values, in Godot Engine 4.

Next up: we're going to work with floats and bits on the GPU in Godot. Here's a "float tree" to visualize the bits of float values between -64 and +64.
With Unity 6.5 and the deprecation of the Built-in RP it is getting time to refresh my introduction series. It's something I'd like to work on in the near future.
With Custom SRP 7.0 #unity3d #gamedev tutorial we upgrade to Unity 6.5. We lose LPPVs but will support Adaptive Probe Volumes in the future. catlikecoding.com/unity/custom...

AnyDice is running again! Unfortunately program links starting at 23 March couldn't be recovered.
Why my websites are down: Basically my web host has been obliterated by a cPanel/WHM exploit which took out many websites worldwide. All I can do is wait until they clean things up and then I'll restore the websites.
My next tutorial series will cover GPU noise. Initially for #GodotEngine, and also for #Unity3d. This screenshot shows colorized radial-falloff gradient noise, with fading octaves, adaptive super-sampling, and analytical normals.
