Progress on the water shader is continuing nicely. Reduced compute time by ~40% by batching calls. Hitting ~90 FPS on my M1 Pro at 2K resolution. Replaced skybox and spent time tweaking params, looks much more realistic now. Next update I'll have some proper foam! #shaders #threejs #webgpu

Made some major improvements to my WebGPU water shader (thanks Ghislain Girardot for the feedback!) Fixed a bug where waves weren't propagating and implemented JONSWAP spectrum for more realistic wave grouping. Hitting ~70FPS @ 2K res on my Macbook M1 Pro #threejs #webgpu #shaders

Made some excellent progress on my Sea of Thieves water shader! 🌊 - Clip maps for infinite water - Fixed subsurface scattering - Switched from single FFT to cascading FFTs to reduce tiling patterns at large distances - Specular highlights for that sparkle ✨ - Persistent foam (not shown since it looks terrible) My next goal is to really nail the foam and possibly even add in some sea spray. Then comes the boats! 🏴‍☠️ #webgpu #shaders #webgl #threejs #seaofthieves

Here's a list of the upcoming features in Three.js Water Pro v3. It's a big update! ✅ Improved Wave Realism — Updated spectrum produces more organic wave patterns. ✅Improve Lighting Model — completely revamped lighting model that produces realistic color changes in shallows areas and allows you to see through water surface ✅Persistent Wave-Crest Foam — Foam lingers and rolls off breaking waves. ✅Multiplayer-Ready Determinism — fixed-step simulation and syncing between clients ✅Sea Spray — attach emitters to boats, rocks, etc. to generate spray as water hits the surface ✅Rain — wind-driven streaks plus water-surface ripples. ✅HDRI Environment Maps — procedural sky has been replaced by realistic HDRI maps ✅Boat Wake — V-shaped wakes with automatic foam on breaking crests, and much more!

My #threejs Lumen Decor Studio is getting an update. It will now support more settings and more complex scenes, thanks to the latest library updates. I'm combining #WebGPU SSGI with light probes, giving us the best of both worlds. Real-time light bounces via SSGI, and when the camera stops moving, I bake probes to measure the average light in the room, generating fill lights that paint an envmap. I also created a denoiser for SSGI, avoiding the previous blur that discarded the AO. Now, everything is lighter, a little noisier, but it complements indirect light well. Live link coming soon. BTW: The video is on my YouTube Channel in case you want to watch it in a higher resolution: #creativecoding #archiviz #WebGPU

Live Link: Source Code: While updating my website, I found an old project that was broken and decided to bring it back to life using WebGPU + TSL in #threejs. I’ve always loved Predator. The first time I saw the Predator cloak effect, I knew I wanted to learn visual effects and make them part of my professional life. Turn the sound on — it makes the experience much more fun 😅 This is also a great exercise if you’re learning TSL and want to experiment with glass, dispersion, IOR, and custom shaders. Both the classic shader version and the new TSL version are included in the repo so you can compare the approaches side by side. Hope it’s useful. Don’t forget to ⭐ the GitHub repo! #r3f #threejsJourney

𝕏 Algorithm Update The 𝕏 algorithm is rebuilt from scratch by the xAI team and now runs on over 20,000 GPUs inside the Colossus data center This wasn’t a small patch or update.....it’s like replacing the entire operating system of a live global platform without hitting restart Early results are already showing: • Time spent is up ~20% • Follows are up even more And this is just the beginning. There’s still a lot more to improve, but the foundation has been rebuilt for scale

I'm always blown away by the fact that Rockstar Games casually made some of the best and most realistic water physics in 2008. GTA IV is the prime example of Rockstar Games focusing heavily on bringing realistic physics in a video-game. Everything from how a car handles, NPC ragdoll and water simulation in Grand Theft Auto IV was way ahead of its time and it even beats most of AAA games that we've seen these past few years when it comes to those game mechanics. Imagine how much ahead GTA 6 is going to be now that Rockstar Games has much more processing power to work with on current gen consoles

Deadlock Minor Update - 06-04-2026 - Urn mechanics have been reworked. - Delivering the urn now starts a king of the hill style capture point, rather than using melee to flip the urn back and forth. - Both teams can progress at the same time, but the urn will only be fully claimed once there is only one team in the circle. - The Urn runner now gets their normal 35% bonus bounty and stats immediately on initial deposit (rather than on deposit conclusion only if your team won it) Other Details: - Urn overall bounty reduced by 20% (unreduced for trailing team) - Progress radius is 20m - Progress rate is fixed regardless the number of allies in the area - Progress duration for favored/neutral/unfavored is 6/12/18s - If Urn has been in progress for over 75s, it will give up and throw all the souls as orbs into the sky (they will float for a long time) - Increased time allowed to run the urn before taking damage by 10s - Trailing team sprint speed bonus from +4m to +5m - Urn comeback resistance now also grants +35% Debuff Resistance ontop of the 35% Bullet and Spirit Resistance - Urn comeback resistance aura reduced from 60m to match the 20m progress radius - Drop off location is above the bridges on the side lanes, rather than below.

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

Maria Bartiromo calls out Amazon for listing inflation on product costs after hiring a Chinese propaganda firm: "There was no mention whatsoever at Amazon about Joe Biden's inflation. And the fact is, we got to 40-year highs. Inflation, measured by the Consumer Price Index, was up 9.1%. We all remember. We were at the cash register.” “Everything cost so much more.” "Why they're putting a little bug now, 'this is because of the tarrifs,' and they didn't put a little bug 'this is because of the $7 trillion spent by the Democrats under Joe Biden' is a question.

HAPPY FINAL SPACE FRIDAY! How bout some music?! By Jake Sidwell Jake is working on the soundtrack with the novel. Right now, I'm descending into madness. Trying to gather all the pages into an order so the letterer can continuing lettering. This is an unexpected time vortex because certain pages are different sizes, resolutions, and labeled differently since this was before we set protocols. We were learning as we went, it's all good, it looks great together but I also need to find more help. A few artists have contracts with bigger publishers and my novel is getting pushed to the side with a few of them...which I get it, it's work. I can't get mad at the hustle nor a artist getting work. So I'm meeting with some new inkers and colorist next week. Daz, Noah and Chiara are still going strong! Slowly but surely we're making this thing! It's exciting to see the pages stack and reading them as complete pages. I still have to finish writing the last chapter and I feel myself holding off as long as possible because I know that's it. That's the last time I'll have time to spend with these characters but it's time to finish it, Daz is almost done with Part 6. My time with these character is coming to an end. I wish I had more time but sadly I just don't. We'll here we go.... Olan PRE-ORDER:

They have worked diligently on perfecting their asset management platform in order to deliver the best user experience possible. $STATS launched last year but their DAPP final version is now ready!! Powered by the $STATS token, STATS is a portfolio tracker but so much more. You get asset management tools (NFTs), wallet tracking, address monitoring, a trading terminal, multi-chain swaps are coming, the list goes on and on and market cap is only $5M ... HUGE conviction this is going much, much higher, I'm in 🚀 🚀 🚀 DEXSCREENER:

A few more sponsors today: bolt.new (they sponsor the clouds now) Synthflow CodeRabbit @scaledropship Your company can become a sponsor too here: About 20 to 50 players online at all time which is nice And daily players is quite stable too at around 15,000 flying per day (see analytics in reply) Today: ✅ Featured on the press in 404 Media ✅ FINALLY got high FPS now on slower devices thanks to s13k for his tips, from 5fps before to 60fps or more now on most devices by killing the lights, this is big because makes it playable on many devices ✅ Refunded one sponsor because his ideas were a bit too big and my skills/time too limited rn to make what he wanted come true in the game ✅ Improved the looks of a lot of the ads so they look less clunky and bit more polished (I'll keep improving them for everyone) I'm in 🇫🇷 France on a nice trip with gf (and then this thing went viral) with of course shitty hotel WiFi (in 2025???) so I have to find little moments in the day to get things done but I'm doing my best, thanks everyone for helping out with support and sponsoring 😊

Three generations and one of our all-time favourite songs — "Hai Apna Dil Toh Awara." In fact, this was the very first song I ever played at the age of 4. Some moments just hit differently and this is definitely one of them. From my father to me and now to my son, music has always been more than just sound, it’s been our bond and it is in our DNA. Dad is on the harmonica, Kiaan is on the drums and I’m on the Alto Saxophone. Hope you enjoy this ❤️ We are styled by - Amita Pathak Sachar
