the more genAI is pushed on us the more I fall in love with that rough, less polished, more obviously painted, sketchy, messy, charcoal-stained type of art that just screams with every brush and penstroke that human hands have touched it.

Sitting a stewing in frustration isn't nearly as cathartic as just designing a poster. Let's see how often I remember that in 2026.

They don't want you to know this but you can just put everything into async tasks and you don't have to worry about performance anymore

I've been struck by the question of: Since the rendering is vertex bound, why not make a greedy mesh for the shadow casting only?
It doesn't need to worry about splitting for AO or texture. Just greedy mesh as much as possible to reduce vertices for shadow casting.
Half the frametime is dir shadow

I'd like to thank the Starfield Creation Kit for making me buy RAM before the Sam Altman gluttony.
I will not be launching it again

From the ocean, a creature crawls ashore. Their eyes are bloodshot & crazed.
45 thousand years from now they will be the end of an empire.
44 thousand and 940 years from now they will be dead.
40 thousands years from now they will wish they were.
1 minute from now they will realise what is lost.

Some organisational changes (re-using the same bitsets for opaque & transparent meshes).
This is now counting the time for constructing both meshes instead of a single one. Total time is down from 1040 ms -> 911 ms.
That's some good savings.

The palette means I can do optimizations that are basically "Are there actually voxels in this chunk to make models for?"
So we can skip the entire transparency mesh build for chunks which lack transparent voxels.
