#1 vibe hacker - burn this house of cards down - vibe coding a AAA game in the browser

if you ever wanted to know how long it takes to vibe code with codex + threejs a whole city editor with highways, streets, junctions, traffic lights, terrain, volumetric clouds, atmospheric effects, GTAO, FXAA, procedural buildings, props, traffic signs, a (semi) realistic car simulation, all from scratch, zero, nada except for threejs it's 11 days, with 6 hr evenings each now we've established this, stop pretending you can do this without vibes coding faster and better thank you for your attention to this matter, making of video below in the comments and if you see this for the first time, it's worth going through the quote posts

Vibe Coding a AAA game with threejs Day 10: Deep dive into world authoring What started as a "i need terrain to build a racing game" slowly evolved to an open world Take a last look at the buildings, because they are getting kicked out next for some really good ones (i don't know how yet, but i'm confident gpt will tell me, but i feel like blender will be involved, ughhh) Anyways, fully reworked the road system, it is now a graph and junctions, bridges, elevations etc. are first class. Previous demos were filled with me carefully placing the race tracks, deleting them, placing them again, and again, until they were okay to show for a demo. Not so fun behind the camera! It's now basically using a very similar system to cities skylines 2, which has really nailed the perfect UX to build road systems. It's also much more flexible now and i believe the world editor can be used for much more than racing games: Rail networks (train game?) or maybe a 3rd person open world game? or actually another cities skylines? who knows, feels like i got a moat on the web now We'll see, after yesterday i've received lots of requests to open source it Which i may actually do at any time if i feel like it, but not for now. There's so many interesting problems with world modeling, i feel like i finally found a rabbit hole worth diving into for a long time! Might have to delay the human designer app until the point where i need humans in the city, we'll see, it'll all eventually come together - it always does Anyways, not gatekeeping, if you have ANY questions on how i solve things, feel free to ask! Also i will open source the procedural buildings soon, i really don't need them anymore

Vibe Coding a AAA Racing Game with ThreeJS Day 2 ✅ Chunk based World Editor (up to 650 sqkm/ 250 sq miles) ✅ Terrain sculpting tools with automatic chunk LODs (heightmaps) ✅ Road system (Spline Curves) ✅ Tunnels (yes it pokes holes in a heightmap) ✅ Props (Spline Curves for batch instancing and solo placements too) Now get lost vibe coding haters, me and my bros got a future to build, i want to drive my new boarrari

fine, i'll build it myself, open source ofc Launching Three-Maps, a rapid blockout editor for building game maps for threejs games: Create a floor plan in 2D, automatically generate 3D levels from it, edit them, export to .glb and use in your games (see end of video) Features: - Floorplan 2D: A 2D canvas to map out the floor - Edit Mode for Objects: Edit Vertices/Edges/Faces, extrude, bevel, fillet and chamfer - Brush Mode: Rapidly build map elements with a RealtimeCSG like experience. Cubes, Stairs, Doors, Arch, Cylinder, Custom polygons. Yes, you can even curve the stairs - Modifiers: Yes, you read that right, slap that array modifier on your pillar and call it a day - Terrain Generator: Perlin, Voronoi, you name it. Oh yes, you can rasterize it and edit every single vertex in edit mode. Keyboard shortcuts are mostly same as blender to activate that muscle memory (G/R/S, axis lock XYZ) Soon: - AI integration. Boot that MCP and directly connect your fav AI agent to build the floorplan, generate 3D maps and more (you will love how this movie ends) It's a little rough and in early, very early alpha so come and join as a contributor instead of calling it slop It's all vibe coded btw, i have no idea what the code does I need this to build my game, as i'm a total blender noob and threejs is great, so why not? Outshipping every CAD and 3D startup just because i want to build a game, that's how you accelerate

Vibe Coding 3D Garment Software with ThreeJS : A Small Step For Me So, after modeling the human i did what any reasonable vibe coder would do, i asked codex how to get clothes for my models After it was done running subliminal ad campaigns for Marvelous Designer and CLO 3D, i asked it to explain their architecture to me and adapt it to my threejs app. Guess what it did? You damn right, it built the most basic shit interpretation you can think of. And this is the average interaction the Anti-AI coders have until they conclude that AI is slop and/or it can only work if you micro manage it on every line of code. Well, eons of humanities knowledge are now packaged in tiny silicon and transferred across the globe in realtime, available on tap. So anyways i just iterated quite a lot over it, told it repeatedly why it was bad (the initial one used rapier physics and a naive cloth simulation) We found out together that: 1. A ground truth document model is needed 2. The visual mesh in 3D should be triangulated from the 2D shape 3. The physical object is running independently through different solvers: - A fast proxy which is generated by reading all the bones in runtime and just inflating these areas with spheres and capsules - A medium quality proxy which resamples the human model and creates a lower-poly mesh for simulations - Full mesh simulation (can't run it, every simulation tick takes about 5 minutes on my machine) It ended the session by telling me that this is still crap because it runs everything on CPU (thanks, not that i care, but i guess we'll be fixing that?) Oh yea also built a 2D canvas editor with boolean operations so i can build cool stuff like ponchos. It also allows me to mark stitches between two objects, which is how the shirt in the video pulls towards the other half. The garment's properties and materials are not yet exposed, yes i know it looks very stiff like a poncho made from a persian rug, we're working on it, okay? So, yea, tbh this is another endless rabbit hole, let's go i guess

Vibe Coding a AAA game with threejs day 8+9: Skylines First of all, the recording below is not sped up, no building LODs, running on a macbook air m2 (8GB, 8-Core) I've added a procedural building generator to the world editor, however, i don't really like the buildings. Don't get me wrong, they actually look decent and codex has done a great job generating textures, doing uv mapping, etc. I've learned so much in 9 days! We're nearly at the end of my promised 2 week sprint and i'm considering either continuing to work on this after 14 days or open source it so you all can have fun building whatever you want on top of it! Though i'll have to go back and finish the human designer app first after the 14 days! It now also has some GTAO, FXAA and the car physics are now much, much more realistic

people really make me ask my girl to borrow her apple silicon macbook to prove it's not 5 fps here is 2 minutes of playtime, no edits, including the initial streamed world rendering, the whole map has about 283kb of map metadata, about 2MB of js and ~6MB of textures atm. deal with it, i'm developing on an imac 2017 as that's what i got and if i can make it run on ~10FPS on that machine with highest settings, it runs perfectly smooth on most of what everyone else got threejs is not the problem here, never was, stop making shit up

Vibe Coding a AAA Racing Game with ThreeJS Day 3+4 ✅ Skinned Terrain ✅ Better terrain generators ✅ GLB props ✅ Procedural props (wind turbines, bridges, electricity poles) ✅ Road guard rails and curve arrows ✅ A lot more map editor tools ✅ Better Water (might delete, FFT burns my toaster) ✅ First post processing ✅ A lot of stuff no one cares about but i had to do

Building an Open Source Metahuman with AI: Pores and Oil All textures created with gpt image 2 The hairs are just placeholders and won't be useful anyways, since i will be porting the shading to threejs TSL soon and i'll have to figure out my own (and cheaper) hair system at some point Still a long way to reach metahuman realism, but at least there's progress (almost) daily And they say AI bros have no skill? I say we do friends
