@kwramm good luck!

@pseudonym it's the USA everything we do is "over the top"

@jalefkowit i hope it includes a heavy metal rendition of "has been"

@jalefkowit i wonder if he has adhd because this is exactly the kind of dumb thing i would embarrass myself with if i were to somehow manage to 1) make it to geriatricity 2) with a giant pile of money and recognition

@pupxel i'm not mad, but i am very disappointed

@unnick daz nuts

@TomF @oblomov @glyph I have it scoped. seems fine so far

remember the golden rule:

please don't make me have to add new rules

@ratsnakegames oh yeah i don't use any of that lol

@ratsnakegames it's like making a little web page but it's for your data instead of for your neopet

@ratsnakegames i like xml ;_;

been hearing a lot lately about how JASON-LD is kind of terrible. shame we didn't already have some kind of eXtensible Markup Language first

@HMLivy @theleftistlawyer I'm asking how do you become one of those people who says things like "my attorney" and not proclaiming that i live under a rock

@giuseppebilotta @TomF @glyph i think so. most of the environment is just going to be a small set of models kit bashed with instancing. the instance point sets are to be generated offline (probably in blender) per tile, and then all that's needed is to move the tile relative to the camera's tile. i figure particle systems could work the same way if I end up having any

@giuseppebilotta @TomF @glyph the tile coordinates on the CPU will probably just use integer coordinates and follow a regular grid of some kind, which at least avoids having to worry about precision while figuring out the relative adjustment

@giuseppebilotta @TomF @glyph what I'm planning right now is putting everything into world tiles, and then rather than putting everything into a common world space, go straight to relative coordinates by treating whichever tile the view origin happens to be in as the current origin tile. this adjustment would be done on the CPU, and thus everything on the GPU would just receive a uniform that applies the current tile transform

@TomF @glyph or I NIH the physics in which case sure why not use fixed point

@TomF @glyph specifically it was the one about using fixed point coordinates for objects. I'm still considering how to make that work, but I'd like to use jolt and jolt only speaks floats, and I am not expecting GLES2 GLSL to provide everything I need to do what I was doing before on the rendering side either. I'm probably going to use tile relative system instead on the shader side, and whatever will require as little translation on the CPU side.

@TomF @oblomov @glyph i do like that switching on DAZ+FTZ makes this not a problem though. seems preferable to math hax or random branching?

@TomF @glyph it's a good blog post tom
