thanks brother

that link I posted actually has interactive shaders already pre-coded as you go along, then asking you to do experiments or fiddle.

I can’t get much value out of eevee for the kinds of things I use blender for but it is kinda cool. so far don’t seem to be able to use eevee in the window but hitting f12 uses cycles 🤷‍♂️

check out the experimental build's AI denoise node for cycles

i’d love to get my head around it all as far as under the hood. doubt it would mean i’d code my own but might help me figure out shader nodes better

gently caress yeah

this method combined with a few other things will mean path traced games in a few years. current 3d methods are an abusive hack. i wonder what it looks like to screen a denoised path traced image on top of a scanlined image.. or use path tracing to generate the lighting and scan line to generate textures

i’m sure the geniuses at epic etc are loving around with it. you can now path trace in ue4 but requires a rtx video card of course 🙄 it’s not designed for game but for reference. but if you’re using ue4 to make things like arch examples it would be amazing. altho to be fair when you bake a scene in ue4 it makes it absolutely amazing, although the baked files it makes are ridiculous for more than a single scene

the ue4 node system blueprints opened up so much stuff to myself

so had my first crack at "photogrammetry" using meshroom and drat this poo poo was far more successful than I thought it would be given how easy it was. I put in like 55 photos but a lot of those were on burst, and the model is hosed around one side but because lol I couldn't be bothered getting into the garden to get on that side of it. With a bettter photo technique and more than 2 minutes I'm sure you could make it much better. I want to use this to photograph the inside of a room or some poo poo. anyway meshroom is also open source/free and phone photos are good enough. see something when you out and about and wanna recreate it? just do it

yeah it seems very cool altho yet to come up with real use cases.. for me anyway. outside of maybe scanning my kids for some kind of like “this is what you looked like at 8” lol or impress my kids by making a game wirh them in it lol


will use it on gfs hallway tho so can experiment with colours etc

its physics stuff and it works in the 3d viewport but when i render it no longer works?

maybe you have to bake it for it to work in render? would make sense bc otherwise you'd be forced to always render all the frames in order from the beginning
