ExplosionTober - 14 : Blood [~1H ]

New kind of shapes and timing here, kinda happy with today's learning :] (how to delay some burst, multiples burst, other kinds of orientation and textures controls)

Forgot to share it here. I recreated Asriels lightning attack from the pacifist fight as well not long after doing his star attack.

ExplosionTober - 05 : Shock [ <1h ]

Low time budget for this Sunday, I was moving to see my grandma :]

But pretty happy with the fast result here, combining distortion with emissive mask and a simple decal for the impact point, playing with rhythms !

I created a fire anomaly with IlluGen, EmberGen, and UE5 last week and did a great breakdown of how it was done. We're trying my best to make IlluGen amazing for real-time VFX artists!

I'm surprised that trackmania isn't more popular with Americans
It essentially has an infinite skill ceiling and they have this really cool daily knockout tournament

There are no upgrades, no unlocks, no grinding aside from improving skill

It's a pure tournament and it's amazing

Here are some of the skills I worked on that didn't fit any specific archetype, so I put them all together in this post. I specially liked Reap, although I wish there was more support for blood spells in the game😅

I've been experimenting making vfx using Unreal engine's curve atlas as a substitute for color map texture files

Since the beginning of the year, I worked more on value and color. So I wanted to rework one of my fire effect to see the difference. I didn't want to change the original shape of my #vfx just improve it! This is the result!

More #WIP for a water enchanting #VFX

Got side tracked a bit on a toon shader, and changed up some props.

WebM decoder is likely for the in-game signs. The animated arrow overlays are WebM files and are used throughout the campaign.
