misc screenshots from various texture tests and experiments in Quake
a concrete facade wall, with waffle slab structures and occasional square holes a gothic ceiling with books on the walls and ornate tracery in the vaulted segments. there are lilac colored lamps hanging from the walls and celling a grey stone castle overgrown in moss and vines, with a metal door in the shade an otherworldly scene looking into the top of a black hole with a glowing orange accretion disc. various rock islands, and a massive stone sword, hover millions of miles above it, presumably in orbit

when told that i made it up, it was like "oh WOW you accidentally made up a name of an existing demo what a crazy coincidence!".

this is what we're replacing search with.

then when asked to help find a completely made up demo, it was like "oh ya another famous banger!" and started hallucinating entries for it again.

asked Gemini to help me find an old DOS app because its name is hard to search and it was like "oh it's a famous demoscene prod", then proceeded to gaslight me with nonexistent links and telling me how it can access the web in realtime and it's totally there and my ISP is actually editing my results

I tried my hand at making a video codec. I didn't know the first thing about video codecs when I started, so was quite fun to learn about the concepts and how to implement them.

I packaged the result in a stb-style, single-file header-only lib, < 2500 loc with no dependencies.

For today's Eldritch 2 devlog, I wrote a bit more about the "maximap" I added last weekend, and some changes to loot distribution to make sure certain rooms always have something good to find.
