Did you think this is possible in the browser? A full FPS "horror" tech demo of my idTech 8 style GI implementation in @threejs Sound on! 🔊 I spent all evening on the sound design, I hope you like it! 👇 I added further details in a thread for the curious bunch

I've given Claude some candidate architectures for "huge physics simulation on steroids". Those candidates are pie in the sky roughly worded computing ideas, badly worded by me. Because this project hinges on the technique's ability to process & compute huge amounts physics information super efficiently Efficiency, I am certain, will come at a tradeoff of accuracy & deterministic solving I will take inaccurate, chaotic, staggered & interleaved updates AS LONG AS it feels fun as fuck in realtime and you can't really notice. Our brains can only pay attention to so much anyway, and I plan to take full advantage of that in how the solver decides what to solve and at what "zoom" level! Unless of course, you're trying to do several chemical reactions in a 1km lake or something. Then you expect shit to slow down But even then, I'd rather the physics to slow & not the game freeze (or perhaps some time slowing effect while stuff catches up!? the matrix tearing haha)

GVHMR is goated

WOW Also, it’s so good, it says “Made with AI” when it’s literally from the shader I love realtime graphics 😍

I mostly quote tweet my own tweets Riding the coattails of my own content Wtf are coattails really anyway

Search X for Kim Jong-un news context Unintentionally come across this Get better soon notch

Apparently if I use the map to warp, the entire foliage has a fucking seizure Idk what to do - call RSPCA??

This is one of my favourite progress shots... Idk why. It's oddly satisfying. Even though the foliage leaves are rooted the wrong way.

I have yet to find a Vantablack ink pond, luminous-blue piss-pool or bubble solution crater during playtesting But they are in the clanker's progress screenshots So I know they're somewhere...

I merged about a dozen worktrees together.. Biomes, volumetrics, foliage.. Loads more. All worked perfect on their own Now it's a big broken mess 🤣

To make sense of the inspiration for my “game” (sandbox, really), you have to know about Pyro Sand A 20+ year old Java game you could play in the browser, and every material reacted to each other. Hot stuff turns water to steam. C4, napalm, methane all variably flammable. I want this. But 40km x 40km. This will not be an accurate full resolution simulation in a sandbox - unless the average steam user has a Houdini render farm Instead I will pull as many disgusting desync & dynamic scaling tricks necessary to make it fun. At the cost of determinism, probably

Help - please send examples of the most ridiculous large scale physics multiplayer games you know I’m talking teardown, but much larger and several players destroying an environment Or tell me it’s near impossible and there’s a reason nothing like it exists..

This is concerning

Some biomes. Foliage off.
