The Microsoft Office team loved Visual Studio cross-plat capabilities so much that they asked for Remote MacOS debugging to continue working from this IDE.
The VS C++ team delivered this for their workflow and we are super excited to share the story!

Right, let's celebrate this properly. We did it, the Game UI Database has finally reached 1000 games!!
It goes without saying that I never expected to hit this milestone, and I couldn't have done it without you all.

Voxels are such a good fit for procedural generation. It's a shame we haven't used it much, except for grass, snow and some building parts. Here's a quick test for procedural trees.

Long, somewhat depressing, but fascinating thread. Talk about sustainability (wind vs oil, replacing gas cars w electric, etc) is incomplete if not including the externalities of producing these things.

redux. I live near one of the largest copper mines on earth (Kennecott Utah Copper - KUC). I helped manage a smaller copper mine for 8 years. Observation: Wind/Solar/Battery Proponents & ESG bean-counters are completely out of touch with copper mining & production.

Over the last decade, global SUV ownership has doubled. If it keeps growing at its current rate, increased SUV ownership will offset the entire emissions reduction from electric vehicles. Plus they’re much more likely than smaller cars to kill pedestrians.

Are you a rendering person and would be interested in learning more how SDFGI works and/or giving us feedback on improving it?
I want to organize a call next week to show slides and discuss it. If this is your thing and want to take part, send me a DM to help find the best time!
Quote Tweet
In the next weeks, I will be working in cleaning up and putting together a presentation on how SDFGI works (or more like, how it should work with all the changes pending). If Rendering + GI is your thing and are curious about how Godot intends to solve GI for 4.0, stay tuned!

Sampling the GGX distribution of microfacet normals to calculate the reflection vector we can end up with vectors below the horizon (yellow pixels, left). Sampling the GGX dist of visible normals jcgt.org/published/0007 can improve this a lot but not fully eliminate it (right).
