What's Blizzy been up to lately?

I'm still progressing through LearnOpenGL's chapters, learning and implementing the concepts and tutorials in my OpenGL Renderer.

Here's a showcase of some fun visuals from the last month.

It is done. I am free of Silksong (finished that first 100% playthrough)

Now that I am my own being again with free will, I've resumed some work on the OpenGL renderer (PHONG additions + model loading) and some Live2D model stuffs. Maybe some cool lil' posts coming soon.

Blizzy update. So. Silksong releasing really muted my productivity aha.

I did get that basic PHONG implementation going. I expect I'll be stretched between Silksong and a definitely top secret blizzy art project for the next two or so weeks.

Spent some spare time adding a few quality of life changes to the renderer code this week. I think the goal for this next week is to implement a PHONG lighting model.

A lil' textured cube-post in the meantime

ACTUALLY WINNING TODAY!! After a few weeks I've finally gotten Live2D cubism to work on my linux pc.

Now I can be torn between c++ projects and the next Blizzy model in my limited free time. Hehehe

Finally set-up my c++ dev environment on my linux machine and I am once again back on my OpenGL adventures. Maybe some cube dev posts soon

Blizzy hiatus update
Swap to Arch Linux with Windows 10 end of life

Procrastinate setting up clip studio paint or live2d cubism for some months

Urge to art 😮

Configure wine and get CSP working without much hassle

5 hours of live2D cubism troubleshooting later. No work

Die

Thank you to everyone who came to my debut today! I appreciate all the support. I'll highlight the VOD so anyone who missed can check it out. Thank you again to @lemkosmavt.bsky.social for the art, rig, and outfit design.

Tonight in Blizzy learns OpenGL basics, I added some basic global directional lighting, and modified my point light to use attenuation and orbit.

Oh and importantly, more cubes.

Worked on extending my cube lighting scenes with lighting maps this weekend. I do enjoy myself a glowing box.

Today in blizzy adventures. The cube in open gl. The pinnacle of 3D object basics (no pyramid enthusiasts). What could go wrong?

I was naive.

THE AUDACITY OF IT TO RENDER AS INTENDED ACROSS THE Y AXIS BUT ACROSS THE X-AXIS. IT'S HEMKING FLAT.

I am inconsolable, in tears and absolutely distraught.

Tried to rename my windows user folder today to do coding streams on my primary OS setup with less chances of doxxing myself and ended up having to do a rollback 😭
I'll settle for an alternate windows profile

I think this approaching weekend might be time we start a stream coding project providing i think of one.
November 4, 2024 at 8:45 PM
Another weekend, another occurrence of cramming open gl and graphics api shenanigans into my brain while in a half asleep deranged state in the dead of night

Might be nice to make a project with this knowledge soon

We've hit dire times tonight. I've started to learn OpenGL with C++. The graphics related coding arc may be starting.

RT this if you’re a VTuber so others can find you through the RT list 🫶

Help me find everyone 😅 I was too lazy to keep up when the shift happened so I lost alot of people

It's been a lot of fun getting back into the streaming routine a bit. Next I just need to do the same for art related shenanigans
