One interesting thing about Light Volumes is that they can be updated at runtime, allowing for baked lighting toggles! Here, I have two switches controlling two Light Volumes, plus an additional one for the light shining through the window. Everything is baked. #VRChat

Actually, one more thing I can share : I added an elevator door, but I still need to add the control panel. Baked Specular makes a huge difference here, especially with smooth metallic surfaces (notice the flower pot on the left too) Baked Specular ON ↔ OFF ↔ Unbaked #VRChat

I've seen too many fully AI-generated VRChat worlds lately, so I tried Astra myself to form a better-informed opinion and arguments. A picture is worth a thousand words. Notice the object count, and nothing is instanced by default! It's not meant to replace Blender or generate a finished world!

It seems to mostly generate beveled primitives. Not every mesh shares the same mesh filter, so instancing isn't always possible.

In this thread, I was thinking of sharing regular progress updates of a hallway. I am not sure yet if I will do that every day, since I don't want to spam too much. Day 1 : That was about 45 min of modelling

Day 5~6 : Mostly done. I added water, and used Mochie's water shader for caustics. Closed the hallway and added a little art installation. And added LV support, I don't always add LVs, but I think it makes sense here given the more varied lighting conditions. No post processing added yet

Day 2 : Added doorways and a wavy ceiling. That was an additional 45 min of work. I'm tempted to already import it into Unity tomorrow, to play around with the lighting and textures

A project I will keep an eye on : An interesting alternative to UdonSharp I will put a link to the repository in the reply.

I updated my 3D Camera asset and added a "fisheye" option, so you can take fisheye pics! I also added a world prefab to render 3D pics in your VRChat world. Technically, the fisheye pics can also be used as matcaps. Not ideal since not true 180° pics, but it kinda works.

You can get it on my Gumroad, but it's a free asset, so you can also just DM me on Discord if you prefer. DMs are open (My Discord is the same as my VRC username: myrop) myrop.gumroad.com/l/3dcam

Wow, seems like ShaderFes will have a 2027 edition! #VRChat

I recently learned that Unity's OnValidate event is supported by U#, allowing you to run code when a property changes in the Inspector without entering play mode. better late than never I guess... Here I use it to automatically update the lights and reflection probes in the scene.

At Santa Ponça, actually surprised how dark a solar eclipse is, first pic was taken at f4.0 1/100s iso16000

(1/2) You may have noticed that issue in some VRChat worlds where sitting on a chair kinda throws you out of it. This issue seem to happen when the seat's enter position isn't pointing upward, although there might also be other reasons.

If you're using my 🐐 I mean my portable panel system, I would recommend updating it to the latest version as it added "partial" 3rd person view support and added PSVR2 controller support (this was a bug, hopefully it should work on all future released controllers) 🔗 in the reply #VRChat

After my world release, it peaked at around 700 users during Japanese peak hours, and half that number during European/American peak hours. It shows how important it can be to include Japanese translations, especially when there are dialogs or text. The JP community is huge.

Actually, I will also share the very simple and persistent translation script I used. Attach that script on any TextMeshPro component to add Japanese language support. Then, set the persistent value "PERSISTENT_LANGUAGE_KEY" to translate everything gist.github.com/MyroG/458456...

After releasing a world, I usually had ideas for what to do next, but after releasing NUCLEUS II, I'm not sure. I think a game world with advanced features for FBT users could be interesting. A few people suggested making a chill world, but it feels a bit "overdone"? I'm open to suggestions!

I open sourced the player teleporter system I use in my NUCLEUS II world. There are a bunch of player teleporter systems out there, but personally I needed a system that also supported checkpoints, persistence and a few other things. 🔗 Link in the replies #VRChat

I would like to do other things before starting to work on NUCLEUS III

I will probably update the world one more time at the end of this week, and I decided to open more picture slots. If you're interested and don't have a picture in that hallway yet, please follow the instructions in the quoted Tweet! Deadline 16th, so a shorter deadline than previously. #VRChat

The hallway got really long

Less than a day left

Depending on how many pictures I'll get, I might need to make the hallway longer, but I am fine with that. The current hallway is around 220m long.
