cx20 built a Pacific saury grilling on a traditional Japanese shichirin, entirely in the Babylon.js Playground. The fish is modelled in code, the coals glow, and the whole thing is quietly wonderful. 🐟 playground.babylonjs.com/full.html#QK...

The normal material renders each surface using its normal vector as color. One of the quickest ways to sanity check geometry, spot flipped faces, and debug a mesh you just built. It also looks great. doc.babylonjs.com/toolsAndReso...

PBR refraction in Babylon.js bends the environment through transparent surfaces the way real glass does. Set an index of refraction, add a little roughness, and you get believable glass, water and gemstones for free. doc.babylonjs.com/features/fea...

The fire material from the Babylon.js materials library animates a flame across any mesh using a diffuse, distortion and opacity texture. Drop it on a plane and you have a candle, a torch or a campfire. doc.babylonjs.com/toolsAndReso...

SirFizX built this overcast ocean scene in the Babylon.js Playground, a full screen water shader with rolling swells and foam under a heavy grey sky. He made it so students on older iPads without WebGPU could still run it. playground.babylonjs.com/full.html#O0...

The glow layer makes emissive surfaces actually feel like they are emitting light. Add it to a scene and every glowing material bleeds softly into the air around it. Neon signs, sci-fi panels, magic runes, all sorted. 💡 doc.babylonjs.com/features/fea...

Particle attractors pull particles toward a point in space with a strength you control. Positive values gather them into orbit, negative values push them away. Great for comet tails, magic, and swirling energy. doc.babylonjs.com/features/fea...

GPU particles push simulation onto the graphics card, so you can run millions of particles without touching your frame budget. Flip one flag on a particle system and the work moves off the CPU. ✨ doc.babylonjs.com/features/fea...

Level of Detail swaps a mesh for simpler versions as the camera pulls away, and hides it entirely past a distance you choose. A few lines of setup, and crowded scenes stay smooth. doc.babylonjs.com/features/fea...

Thin instances let you draw thousands of copies of one mesh in a single draw call. Same geometry, different transforms and colors, almost no CPU cost. It is the fastest way to fill a scene with detail in Babylon.js. doc.babylonjs.com/features/fea...

Molten, glowing, alive. The Lava material animates a fiery surface with noise driven flow and glowing hot spots, so volcano floors and lava rivers look dangerous with zero custom shader code. Apply it and go. doc.babylonjs.com/toolsAndReso...

Shadows sell a scene, and Babylon.js makes them easy. Point a ShadowGenerator at a light, list the meshes that cast shadows, and you are done. Turn on blur exponential shadow maps for soft edges that ground every object. doc.babylonjs.com/features/fea...

Flat textures, real depth. Parallax occlusion mapping shifts texture coordinates per pixel so cobblestones and bricks look carved from the surface, with no extra polygons. One of the cheapest ways to add real detail. doc.babylonjs.com/features/fea...
