Another thing that is going to be released with next version of VRC Light Volumes, is an in-game debugger tool! You'll be able to preview every volume, voxel, and point light. Works in any world that supports VRC Light Volumes.

Now Point Light Volumes supports Cubemap projections! Volumetric fog makes it look just stunning! But here's some bad news... If I release it, all world creators will need to update their worlds to the new Light Volumes version. Otherwise it will break the back compatibility. Updating avatars will be really suggested too, to support the point light volumes, but worlds are something that is more important! But it will be just as easy as to reupload the world.

Point Light Volumes prototype! They can be both Point and Spot Lights, can be calculated mathematically or use a special LUT texture that controls the cone falloff and attenuation! Up to 128 lights per scene. Works up to 3- 4 times faster than regular Light Volumes. Can also be controlled with AudioLink individually!

A very rough proof of concept of Baked Directional AO for VRC Light Volumes. I'm not sure if I want to integrate it into light volumes for real, but it could be a VERY performant solution to make super cheap realtime contact shadows.

Spot Light Volumes! Everything is parametric here and not baked into a 3D texture, as regular light volumes, which makes it even more optimized. Will work on it a little bit more and see if it's worth to add it to the main project branch.

Something-something Point Light Volumes? Not sure if I will integrate it, but I just don't like people using baked volumes as fake point lights and spot lights. Integration for shader makers would just require to update my .cginc file I provide. For people - to update the shader and reupload their avatars again. Not sure if it's worth it, but we'll see...

Light Volumes 2.0 will support baked 3D shadows for point and spot lights, and that's how it can be used! Thanks to Pema99 for implementing this feature!

FlexiCurve, my garland tool, updated to v.1.2.1. Now it supports tinsel garlands and VRC Light Volumes! And it's open-source and free: You can also support me buying the new tinsels preset for it on my Booth or Patreon!

Today I release new GPU Particle Volumes system and the GPU Snow Particle shaders for it! This snow shader can render hundreds of thousands of particles at the same time even on a weak GPU. It also supports VRC Light Volumes. Get it on my Booth or Patreon!

I'm working on a new major VRC Light Volumes update! - Baked realtime shadows (very performant) - Animated cookies and cubemaps - Optimized area lights - No more legacy code - Almost full back compatibility with older light volumes shaders (excluding new shadows)

New prototype of VRC Light Volumes real-time shadows! It uses EVSM сontact-hardening soft shadows. Performance seems good on PC, but I will do more tests. Finally something that looks better than what you can achieve in Unity by default!

Here's something I promised to show you… GPU grass that is actually fast and usable! It can be dynamically scattered over any mesh in your scene, can be bent by people's avatars or props, and it even works on Quest and mobile just fine. Still WIP, but you can check this world:

This week I've been working on the VRChat Light Volumes scripts to bring you an easy and comfortable editor workflow. I also implemented the Volumes rotation feature and optimized the shader a lot to make it work even more solid on potatoe-PCs. Here's a small video of how it currently works.

Still working on VRC Light Volumes v.3.0 Here are some realtime shadows with volumetric fog... (Extremely expensive but cool)

VRC Light Volumes AudioLink support! Just imagine VRChat clubs using this! Minimal performance cost and buttery-smooth FPS, even on potato PCs. Thanks to Vard for integrating AudioLink support

The helicopters can now transport players anywhere on the map using my functional ATAK prefab. The helicopters themselves are integrated into the avatars. #Eno3D

I recently found that it is possible to convert the Apple "USB-C Diagnostic Tool" (available for any AASP to purchase) into the device it's based on, the "Chimp" USB-C debugging probe! Here's a quick video on what needs to be done. #appleinternal
