Serenity

The theater is far from being ready, but perhaps you can view our rehearsals? The theater opens soon~! 🎩 https://serenity.theater

Made the bold choice of announcing the project while writing my own 3D model format from scratch. Expect more frequent updates/renders when I finish that, because rn mfs look like this.

A developer has turned a 26-year-old PS2 into a working VTuber setup The console can render a live animated avatar, with full-body tracking and EyeToy support planned

just got emailed by HR while redecorating. apparently my office and attire is "unprofessional, messy, and frankly an eyesore". every time HR hurts my feelings I hurt a Glaggle.

2,500 Glaggle Stickers spread across the wall, desk, CRT, Mouse, Keyboard, and the hand of a man at the end of his rope. Surrounding them are 40 Glaggle stress balls, one is having the joy squeezed out of it.

I'm learning how to make games on the PlayStation 2! I plan to use the console's limitations and low-poly geometry to make a unique short horror game. For now, here's a few ominous shots with fitting music.

I FINALLY made a batch script to get all 9,068 textures decompiled from Okage: Shadow King Gonna see if I can go get these moved to the textures resource. In the meantime I'll set up a google drive or something similar in the next few days. #OkageShadowKing #Okage #ボクと魔王

Many many texture files, just a few of the over 9000 textures I've gotten.

Sure I'll post this in the middle of the night why not. Made some progress in the Okage decomp stuff I was doing a long time ago. Kinda hard to see but that's the point cloud for Rosalyn's head (and hair). VERY close to figuring out how to get the whole model.

Doing rough blockouts for Serenity and Toymaker, need 3D models of them for some upcoming stuff. But at this stage it just looks like Serenity and half a sentient eggshell.

Serenity and his iconic sentient eggshell friend.

I found the same library the PC-98 Touhou games were made with (master.lib) and started programming with it. Just a simple movement controller for now. Might make some small PC-98 games.

Update on the Multiplane camera project. The new acrylic panes have arrived! These are much larger and thicker than the old ones. This time I will use CAD software to plan out the build rather than just winging it like I've been doing. I've never used CAD before so it may take some time.

Screenshot of FreeCAD with the two acrylic parts side by side:

The new larger one is 9" x 36" with a 0.125" depth
The previous smaller one is 8" x 10" with a 0.08" depth

Attempt #3 at prototyping a desktop sized Multiplane camera. MANY oversights in this one, but it was incredibly informative for my next attempt. I need bigger acrylic sheets. Once I prototype a decent build, I'll try to make and share a 3D printed version.

The finished build featuring many measurement faults, however it remains shockingly structurally stable.The initial cuts lined out on cardboard.The pieces partially cut outA quick test shot

Say your prayers Walt Disney. I've cracked the code on your multiplane camera for animation. It's just a matter of time before your empire crumbles.

Quite possibly the best multiplane camera ever conceived by mankindTop view of The Contraption that shows a perfectly cut and centered hole for the camera to see through, not a single thread is in front of the hole.HOW???????Masterpiece. Features an ultra functional light hole, dirty acrylic for texture, the fabled square, 2 count em 2 buttons, and no visible cloth.
