Added snapping functionality, it snaps a vertex to the nearest linear knot. Even with large triangles, it'll ensure the mesh follows the contour perfectly! #pcg #unity3d #gamedev #indiedev

Fruitful morning! Increased performance of fill mesh generation by a blistering 2600%!

Spline points are now cached and vertices are processed in parallel on all cores 🚀 Makes for very smooth iteration. #unity3d #pcg #gamedev #indiedev

Implemented surface conforming for the Spline Area mesh component! Makes the mesh snap down to the underlying colliders.

Will be interesting to see if it can be used to make golf courses 😄 #unity3d #gamedev #pcg

The spline "area mesh" functionality for Spline Mesher 2.0 is shaping up! Here is an example of the height displacement capabilities, it doesn't have to be flat! 😄 #indiedev #gamedev #unity3d #pcg #proggen

Spotted Spline Mesher in the wild! Dominik Hackl (Pianova Games) is using it to create a roller coaster physics puzzle game called "Coaster Crash Course" store.steampowered.com/app/3962470/... #indiedev #unity3d #gamedev

Spline Mesher released back in March 2024, and has been proven pivotal in some projects! A few major, long requested, features are pushing for a reworked version, which I've started on. So far it's shaping up well! #unity3d #indiedev #gamedev

Unity 6.2 introduces "MeshLOD", functionality to auto-generate LODs for imported meshes. I've made an editor utility to export them an FBX file.

You can find it on GitHub here, and install it through the Package Manager: github.com/staggartcrea... #gamedev #indiedev #unity3d

Trying my hand at creating isoline splines from a terrain, using marching squares to trace the heightfield. Getting crude but promising results ✨

Picture this: automatic shoreline tracing for lakes and beaches, or simply cool terrain visualization! 🤯 #gamedev #unity3d

Put together a component to create a set of new splines running parallel to another one! So far extremely useful for side objects along rivers and paths #gamedev #indiedev #unity3d

The Spline Spawner asset is nearing the end of its beta! Masking is the last major feature added, a powerful way to prevent objects from spawning near or within other splines. #unity3d #madewithunity #indiedev #gamedev

This is also based on a floating Box Collider, which then gets used for paddle collisions.

Transformed Unity's "Karting Microgame" project into a jetski playground 🏄 In the most unorthodox way... by driving on an invisible floating plane 😄 #indiedev #gamedev #vfx

Getting around to testing Underwater Rendering v3 on mobile VR. Performance has significantly improved thanks to a better technical approach 🚀

It will be available to dive into on the Unity Asset Store soon! 🤿

Underwater Rendering for Stylized Water 3 is nearing completion! A collection of bubble effects are being added, for ambience or character breathing/movement. #vfx #gamedev #unity3d

Spline Mesher v1.2.3 now includes assets and examples for vertex-animated bunting. This shader graph demonstrates how the baked-in gradients can be used for masking.

Tried out a different way to render water caustics by using an animated flipbook of pre-rendered caustics. Looks a lot more lifelike! #gamedev #unity3d #indiegamedev

Terrains only accept textures, so finetuning colors becomes a hassle! I've created a little utility that converts a Color into a usable Terrain Layer!

Makes for quick prototyping! #gamedev #unity3d #indiegamedev

Reworked my spline-based prefab spawner to work with Unity's native spline tool! Got to flesh out plenty of new ideas, it now does just about everything! 🚀

🔗A download to a preview version is available on Discord if you're already a user of the "Spline Mesher" asset
