Thought using Unity as an editor for my toy renderer would be quick and easy. Then I hit the wall of coordinate systems. Switched to left-handed after hours of refactoring. Still worth it, doing this in pure code would’ve been very boring and slow. #gamedev #unity #rust #rustlang #forma #creativeCoding #wgpu #rendering

Finally added the long-overdue camera controls. Classic FPS style. It'll help me get better angles for captures, but now I kinda want to make it into a game and fail badly. 😆 The curse of a game developer. #rustlang #wgpu #gamedev #forma #rendering #creativeCoding

Different colors, different waves, same headache potential. #wgpu #rendering #rustlang

I’m doing my best to deliver you seizures and headaches yet again with another video. Refactored the hell out of this thing and added a basic ADSR envelope. Still a lot to add, but sounds good! #wgpu #audio #rustlang #audio #rust #rendering #creativeCoding #generativeArt

Audio alert!
Added multiple waveforms: sine, triangle, square and sawtooth. I actually had my own library from years ago that did this, but visualizing the wave took ages. I think it looks cool though. More audio stuff is on the way. #rustlang #wgpu #audio #rendering #rust #forma #creativeCoding #generativeArt

Shifting focus to audio next but got carried away with rendering experiments. Not sure this qualifies as an environment, maybe a poor man's Sponza. #wgpu #rustlang #rendering #rust #generativeArt #forma #creativeCoding

Finally found the issue. It was color correction, again. Linear on the left and gamma corrected on the right. Realism aside, I’ve always liked high contrast. #wgpu #rustlang #rendering #rust #forma #generativeArt #creativeCoding

One thing I still don’t understand is colors and texture formats. I see different colors on different computers and also between real-time rendering and saved images. I’m not even sure which one is correct anymore. And this massive enum is not helping. #wgpu #rustlang #rendering #rust #forma

My little raymarcher now has raymarched reflections. Still working on the look. 🏗️

Follow up with another simple effect: inverted colors. I think it’s time to start putting some work into audio now. #rustlang #wgpu #rendering #rust #generativeArt #creativeCoding #forma

One of the reasons I started this project was to learn compute shaders and eventually process audio. Today I finally got to the fun part: experimenting! There’s still a lot to iron out, but here’s a simple real-time pixelation post-processing effect. #rustlang #wgpu #rendering #rust #creativeCoding #generativeArt #forma

I'm adding render passes one by one and everything is coming together nicely except some minor issues. :) #rustlang #wgpu #rust #creativeCoding #generativeArt #forma #rendering

CubeCL: GPU Kernels in Rust for CUDA, ROCm, and WGPU

Looks like a step back but it is actually the opposite. Finally got rendering to a texture working. Took a while and I learned the hard way how slow CPU-GPU communication can be. I'm also fiddling with Unreal Engine on the side, lots to juggle but good progress. #rustlang #rust #wgpu #generativeArt #creativeCoding #rendering #forma

Out of curiosity do any of the #mobilelinux devices support WGPU? I have tested both #FLX1 and #PPP and neither one seems to work even though WGPU supports GLES and they both support GLES 3 but seems like WGPU doesnt work on it even if glxgears does. I opened a ticket for FLX1 a while back but I marked it as potentially a halium based issue.

I want to see if any other device is working before i open a mobile linux ticket

Made my own tiny wgpu raymarcher: https://codeberg.org/wesfly/wgpu_raymarching. Built with Rust + wgpu + WGSL shaders. Features real-time SDF scene, smooth object blending, camera controls, and FPS limiting. I'm still working at it. 🧑‍🔧

Planned to work on audio, but adding support for different materials sounded better. Here's a messy scene just to show it off. Designing a proper architecture was tricky. It is far from perfect, but I gained a lot of insight. #rustlang #wgpu #rendering #creativeCoding #generativeArt #forma

Finally added a basic point light. Even something this simple takes a lot of groundwork. Now it's time to add some beats. #rustlang #wgpu #rendering #forma #generativeArt #creativeCoding

Progress update with a video that might be a little annoying: I added modulation with an LFO and some UI (of course, using egui). Now I can synthesize some spooky sounds! #rustlang #wgpu #generativeArt #creativeCoding #audio #forma #rendering

🦾 wgpu: A cross-platform, safe, pure-Rust graphics API.

｢ wgpu is a cross-platform, safe, pure-rust graphics API. It runs natively on Vulkan, Metal, D3D12, and OpenGL; and on top of WebGL2 and WebGPU on wasm.

The API is based on the WebGPU standard. It serves as the core of the WebGPU integration in Firefox, Servo, and Deno ｣
