Zorah looks like a nice level-up if you've conquered the classic Swallowing the Elephant challenge!

Some images showing off my improvements to my photon mapper I have integrated into truetrace
The photon mapper is up on the Dev branch on the github

Yes, I have plenty of ideas on how to progress, but I've had to take a break from screens for a few weeks so it will be a while before I get back to it properly.

Great rainbow effect! It worked really well. 😀
You made it look deceptively easy to achieve, but my own attempt wasn't nearly as successful. 😬
Awesome job.

My latest coding adventure is now up on YT -- some experiments with ray-tracing glass and water, and the cool caustics they can cause

Experimenting with a face extrusion and retraction brush in my toy #voxel editor. Threw a bit of #raytracing in there while I was at it ✨

I am not related to the project so I'm not in a better position than you to approve it (:

It's so close to perfect!

After clean up with Auto-Flip Faces, only a few normals remain inverted.

Amazing! I tried it and it works great in my early tests!

Here's a model that it struggles to clean up: On the pico-mac-nano GitHub page, in 3D_model, pmn_rear_3_3.stl. It's the back of a Mac Plus case and the normals in the vents are inverted. Applying the magic flip fixes most but not all of them
