Interested in this barycentric coordinate system for the dragon racing project.

My current editor progress gets pretty choppy around surfaces.

Quick silly thing thrown together.
Keep imagining a Destiny parody.

My mind often chooses to neglect this crucial component of the Christian life.
Silly as speaking to someone invisible might seem, at the very least, I think it is healthy exercise for the mind, like a form of metnal recalibration, in a world where mental health seems to be on the decline.

Ended up giving this some color

Started another iteration of the Flameout dragon model. A bit more mass to it this time, and working toward some better animations.

Been playing a bit of Quake Champions lately. Fancied my dragonmage character going against the death knight after having the Goroth soundtrack playing in my head.

Some Sunday sketching, couple of scenes for my Tale of a Basilisk project.

Messed about previsualizing a track idea I had sketched a while back.

A hasty concept render of my childhood idea for a derivative action platformer.

Was daydreaming the Descent Mercenary OST

A bit sobering to see $15 combo meals at fast food chains. I remember $9 being normal.
More incentive to meal prep, I guess. Control what you can for the better.

Happy New Year!
Bit of a slow start, got sick the other day. So managing a fever.

Distracted with BallisticNG modding. Ported over the Pyro GX from Descent.

Was trying to implement an anti-roll function for the npcs since they tend to roll over and KO themselves on loopy segments.
Can never seem to get it right though.

Put together a set of tutorial images. To be implemented in the public build yet, I really want to fix the npc racers in-game before throwing out a new build.

Quick render of the dragon model being used.

Hearing the saying "God has a sense of humor." Can't help but find that in how I forgot my lunchbag today.
Thankfully was gifted a new lunch bag. (No free lunch though. But an impromptu mini-fast isn't bad I suppose.)

Looking to move into a new place in a few weeks.
Hopefully the shorter commute can add some more productivity to my projects. Been losing 2 hours daily to driving the past couple of years.

Singleton target lock achieved in editor.
There is a rough fireball ability. But I want to try a mode switch between firebreath and fire bullets depending on proximity.
Need to get an effects system in place for it to look decent though.
No feedback from just hitboxes alone.

Shout out to Vazgriz and this tutorial for betterin my understanding of PID controls.

It be how some AG Racers achieve that smooth hovering effect while retaining a sense of momentum.
