Joel Davis @joeld42.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Each one of these is a big messy nodegraph but it's just a couple hundred lines in code form. Much more managable. 230
Joel Davis @joeld42.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Holy cow, nodebpy from @bradyajohnston.bsky.social gives Claude superpowers with blender. It can speak its native language. Geonode walls from a spline, gravestone generator, procedural ground, in just a few minutes. And unlike most ai-gen scenes, these are now tools that I can control and direct. 1171
Joel Davis @joeld42.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I really like this new approach: Node graphs can be converted to code and vice versa, so you can have both and edit in whatever is more appropriate for the moment: nodes for tweaking and fast interaction, code for diffs and building large, maintainable libraries. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFGE...youtube.comBuild Your Node Trees With Code — BCON26YouTube video by Blender 140

Joel Davis @joeld42.bsky.social · 09/08/2026This seems like a reasonable use of AI: I had an old game "Planet Minesweeper", that Apple delisted from the App Store, I don't have the resources to keep updating it for every iOS version. There was pretty much no way to play it anymore. I asked claude to port it to the web, and it just did it. 130
Joel Davis @joeld42.bsky.social · 31/07/2026The weirdly specific multiplayer middleware thrown in there is especially a red flag to me. Most of this is like someone just putting game tools they've heard of in a doc, but that looks like there's a failed netcode rewrite in their recent past. 000

Joel Davis @joeld42.bsky.social · 19/07/2026I feel like you want it to be sort of predictable but with a little bit of randomness, so a player can make decisions based on what it will probably do but still have to contend with unexpected situations sometime. 110
