Did a little something to test my new VFX shader. Dare I say I am quite pleased!

UGH Hopefully I can get bottom surgery early and finally get to not be so stressed about saving up anymore. JK still have to save but at least I'd get some breathing room.

Documentation Purpose: Calculating camera angle so that the vertical 'light piller' kind of VFX will fades out when viewed from the top or bottom.

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

Add more variation to your panning textures by manipulating the UVs for a bulging or pinching effect! This technique is a great way to add more volume and shape to panning textures! #realtimeVFX #UnrealEngine #gamedev`

I talk quite openly about how bad it was for me with this industry simply cos saying nothing will not help. Openly showing others support matters always cos many don’t get it ever and I never got much my first decade. This is why I don’t shut up about getting others to give it while they can.

Okay got an art block so I think it's a good excuse to kickstart this. My #Huevember! Traditionally you'd paint something every day with a hue assigned to that day, but due to commitments (job basically) and nature of VFX I've decided to do 10 sets of hues as VFX. They're all randomly selected

My pet peeve is that when one want to study a VFX from a reference but focus too much on the character/camera animation and not the VFX itself. Just use plain sphere as a stand in! I want to see clear VFX and see if the fundamentals are there, not an animated short!

Its been fun sharing some of the #GameDev #VFX work that I have worked on recently, so here is a selection from Starship Home which I did earlier this year. All made using Unity, Amplify #shader editor & Quixel mixer. (I'm on the look out for work too so DM if you might need something soon)

Kinda want to toot my own horn a bit but I'm SO happy the 'are you really good enough' part of my particular kind of Imposter Syndrome has been in regression to the point I don't have the thought anymore. It's nice to keep myself busy with what I CAN and not what I cannot.

Any #VFX people out here, what is the color of poison to you? Usually (especially in game) it's green or purple, but I think yellow or orange do show up form time to time, and Elden Ring's Scarlet Rot does beautifully use Red to convey decay and suffocation.

I put together a free #gamedev software starter pack for newbies. A lot of this leans towards my personal tastes, but I'd love to hear some suggestions about things I could add to it. docs.google.com/document/d/1...
Koboldskeep’s Free Gamedev Software Starter Kit
Some tool notes I put together for my local game dev club with some help from https://www.artstation.com/animatrix1490 and https://github.com/DarthFutuza. If you like what you see, you can follow me on https://bsky.app/profile/kobolds-keep.net 

Programming/Engine: Godot Engine 4.3

3D Art: Blender

Thinking about doing Huevember VFX but my lazy ass would probably do a slight variation of impact in 30 colors. Guess I should make it a weekly thing with random color from the palette?

I know we shouldn't spread ourselves too thin but I really would like to look into post processing stuffs after noticing Puss In Boots 2 and The wild robot having that painting-ish stylized texturing and I would kill to know to to translate that to game engine besides texturing works.
