So the regression I had found in #Luanti was real and now it seems to has been solved:

https://github.com/luanti-org/luanti/issues/16144#issuecomment-2890505867

But I also found another similar regression or bug:

https://github.com/luanti-org/luanti/issues/16159

I'm currently testing an old commit to see where the regression has happened. If you play Luanti, consider using the latest development version to see if the same happens for you.

#LibrePlanet event from #ShirazLinux in #Shiraz, #Iran is over. I enjoyed most lectures and also the LAN party. There weren't many people participating at the our #Luanti LAN party. I think not more than 10. But the ones who participated, were active and interested. We didn't have a #hackathon as participants weren't ready for that. But I showed them the code, told them about Luanti and #Lua and explained part of the code such as landmine code, parts of spike code and I think I also explained parts of chest code to them.

It seems that their fear was gone after I walked them through the code and told them about different features needed in the game. Some were thinking to do PRs after this. I reminded them that there are some very simple but very wanted features they could add with very few lines of code. I also introduced them the #JMA server.

Let's hope we will get some hands in #MinetestCTF and also a bigger player base :)

BTW, I carried a pack of 3.5" floppy disks to gift to people under 18 there. But at the LAN party, everyone were above 18. So I'm returning all floppy disks back home XD

Maybe I had to increase the minimum age requirement? Anyway, next time I'm loading the floppies with FreeDOS and digger game. Rather than giving away raw floppies.

Working on a simple voxel map editor for my game. It's based on godot voxel.

Very happy with the work I just finished on Avoyd's voxel to optimized binary glTF mesh. It's a lot faster than the alternatives I've tried, uses less memory and produces very good result for this style of voxelized mesh.

Avoyd 0.26.0.954 Beta is out with the new export to glTF Binary Mesh (.glb) for direct export to Unreal Engine 5+, Unity 6+, Godot and others, along with Minecraft block updates.

Avoyd's glTF (.glb) voxel exporter is feature complete, so now time for some testing.

#Avoyd #VoxelEditor #Blender #IndieDev #VoxelGameDev #Unity #Godot #UE5 #Voxel #glTF

The glTF (.glb) format turns out to be reasonably simple once you've used it, but like many formats it's often a little hard to parse the documentation. So Syoyo's lib has been pretty helpful as there's a simple example of building a glTF from scratch. Images and binary buffer location wasn't covered, so that's taken me a bit to figure out.

I now have working pbr materials, with transparency to come.

Work in progress Avoyd export to glTF binary (.glb) using https://github.com/syoyo/tinygltf

I have yet to add normals, texture coordinates and PBR material data, but hopefully this should lead to a direct voxel pipeline from Avoyd to UE5, Unity, and Godot.

To be clear we don't use AI in Avoyd nor in any of our work with @dougbinks at enkisoftware.

The only think approaching AI is if you use the third party OIDN denoiser on your voxel renders, but it's a very specific image processing tool that runs locally https://www.openimagedenoise.org/

@juulcat Video of the various UI theme options and desaturation in Avoyd 0.24 voxel editor and renderer.

#Avoyd #VoxelEditor #IndieDev #VoxelGameDev #Render #Voxel #VoxelArt

Avoyd voxel editor 0.24 release and the free demo now have neutral greyscale UI themes and a desaturation option. They should help reduce the UI's influence on your visual perception of colours and contrasts in your voxel renders.
