Wanted to render explosion sprites using raster order groups and tile shading instead of built-in blending, got gpu hallucinations

v1.2.6 of valence3d.app features a new "trim by plane" command that allows for quick and easy mesh slicing.

Proud of this minimal interface for setting the trimming plane. I resisted the urge to over design this because its a small feature. #swiftui #metalapi #3dmodeling #shaders

Friday night is coming up. What’s the vibe?

What does listening to music look like on the inside?

Created my first triangle a while ago in Metal! Been busy with school-work so I had to put a pause on my studies, but so excited to get back into in during my little break between Summer and Fall term! :) #GraphicsProgramming #MetalAPI

Thanks everyone for the nice response to the Wallpaper app! 🙏🏻

I’ve got some great feedback and feature requests!

Starting with some low hanging fruit: Since the renderer was built for VR, pitch and roll poses no problem 😉

Never been as proud of myself as I am right now. Looks like I'm finally ready to move on from this test scene and start creating the actual game content.

Apple: (in the current online game dev session):

“There are two types of game engines on our platforms:

1. Third party (eg. Unity)
2. Ported custom PC engine.“

I guess this explains why Metal docs assume that devs already know everything about GPUs and gfx dev. 🙄

I wanted ctrl-dragging on the rendered image to rotate the viewer just like in the visionOS simulator.

And unlike in the simulator I also wanted to be able to roll the image. (with a slider)
