4/ We have a real-time voxelizer for populating the occupancy volume with.

5/ Now that the effect works, we can add interaction to it as well. In the following video we interact by shooting and exploding.

7/ The effect consisted of three phases. 1. Rock formation. 2. Front-To-Back Sweep where the rocks detach. 3. Rocks Dissipating. Here's how:

for(float i,g,e,R,S;i++<1e2;o.rgb+=hsv(.4-.02/R,(e=max(e*R*1e4,.7)),.03/exp(e))){S=1.;vec3 p=vec3((FC.xy/r-.5)*g,g-.3)-i/2e5;p.yz*=rotate2D(.3);for(p=vec3(log(R=length(p))-t,e=asin(-p.z/R)-.1/R,atan(p.x,p.y)*3.);S<1e2;S+=S)e+=pow(abs(dot(sin(p.yxz*S),cos(p*S))),.2)/S;g+=e*R*.1;}

I wanted to see if I could recreate this effect in WebGL. It's been a fun challenge figuring out how to make both the particles and the model a single geometry. Each particle you see belongs to a fragment of the split model. #threejs #webgl

I remember writing that custom lodding for particle grass in PS5 version of Returnal that Alexander Battaglia mentions here in his video (around 13:53). I was almost certain that no one would ever notice it. I'm glad someone did! youtu.be/3sNsMxrDEdc?t=…

Its my 38th birthday today! Would love to ask for shares - and if you're in the know, any assistance in gettin MTG art director eyes on me would be huge x

Hi, I'm looking for a technical artist to join our vfx team in Helsinki. Looking for someone with background in realtime vfx and knowledge of Houdini and Unreal. Related programming experience expected (vex, shaders and scripting languages).

What does game dev optimization look like? When I was in college, one of my professors told the class: Do not optimize code because the compiler is smarter than you. He was wrong. As an example, here is the timeline of a frame from Uncharted 2 (my old gdc talk).

New at #SIGGRAPH2025: Can we make Perlin Noise stretch along some underlying vector field? Well it turns out it's possible with two simple additions to the original method! No need for advection or convolutions. Find the paper and implementations here: github.com/jakericedesign…
