Making the world better, one texel at a time Vancouver #gamedev #shaders #unity3d

Every time i have to add toggles to my avatar i end up lamenting how many clicks it takes to just add some simple stuff. A couple weeks ago i threw together an NDMF tool of my own that generates DBT-friendly toggles. Feels good to just drag and drop stuff, takes seconds due to large drop targets.

So its been 4 months since i moved basically everything off of vercel/supabase/etc onto my little locally hosted instance hidden behind a VPS. All I can say is that it was definitely worth it. Builds are super fast, and i have full introspection into what's actually going on

Took ~10 hours of work to rewrite all the things from vendor-locked solution to an open source and self/hostable stack, not too bad tbh. While not as ✨ magical ✨ - it is nice to have insight into every part of the system

Unity 6 added some based buttons, apparently No longer do you need a custom script just to have the game view follow the scene view - now you can take over any camera and easily position it in the scene by flying around in the scene view :chefkiss:

Seems like im gonna be sending my playdate back to Panic. Credit to them for a super quick reply and immediate "yeah, we'll just replace yours". Just too sad to not have access to this joy of a device while its away!

Are there any active #VRChat world creator communities around these days? 🤔 I feel like everyone I meet is kinda doing their own thing. Either by themselves, or in a small group focused on just their world/event/community. But maybe I'm missing something obvious?

Today was a “fuck it” day. And thus it is ending with me sitting here, watching the sunset, drinking some cheap wine and enjoying a book

Me out here straight up Yandare-deving. Playdate is too constrained to run ODIN's built-in json decoder, so I have to use Playdate's built-in one. And I'm too lazy to write a reflection-based procedure to assign the values back. So now its just this, mistakes are being made on live television

Its been about 8 months since I reinstalled windows and been too lazy to install davinci resolve. As a result, I've been making all my tiny shitpost videos in blender. And u know, I'm becoming committed to the bit

After a day of playing a number of different games with my steam controller (my point of reference - Xbox Elite 2) Pros: - More comfortable and lighter than I expected - All the buttons feel good, back buttons imho are huge upgrade over the deck - Very seamless experience when steam is running [1/5]

A photo of an opened box of a steam controller gamepad. The box is placed on a blue fabric chair cushion. The inside of the lid of the box contains the controller setup instructions via icons. The bottom half of the box houses the steam controller and its wireless puck

Listen, it was REALLY important to add as much silly avatar interactivity to this sink that 2 people will ever interact with. You do not understand! #VRChat #unity3d Everything is powered by PhysBones and VRCTween, with very small layer of Udon acting as a glue

Another #furality over. Have mixed feelings about some parts of the event. But the incredible people I got to meet and the moments I got to share with new and old friends alike - were as magical as always

VRChat screenshot of a group of avatars sitting on an observation platform. Virtual city is visible in the bacground. Many colored lights with trails forming a spiral in the sky. Beam of light coming down to the ground from the spiral. "Thanks for playing!" text formed out of many tiny drones with glowing lights visible on the right side of the image.

Finished reading Project Hail Mary. It was pretty good. A little sad I did spoil myself on how some stuff looked based on shots of the movie. Wonder how I would've imagined some things without that (e.g. Rocky), but I'm glad I picked it up.

Opened Spotify for the first time in like a year to check out my all time wrapped, apparently @mordfustang.com is my most listened artist, checks out honestly. Glad to actually own the full discography now and have it with me at all times though

Straftat continues to be the most fun you can have with up to 9 other people. Every single time its an absolute blast, just grab the "more strafts" mod in r2modman to paly with more than 4 people

Working on my SteamVR Overlay has been kind of a cathartic "I can just go and implement the things I want" experience. Oh spout 2 doesn't have a nice C API? I can just add it! Oh u have to use C++ for performant Capture? I'll just write my own library to expose it to Odin
