This morning, I added a Japanese translation to the site with React-i18next!
...The biggest problem with being multilingual is having to support *every* language on your site ^^; But EN/JP works for now. I'll get around to CN and DE some other time.

Y'know, I don't think this is too bad for 3 days' work!
The SDF demo canvas thingy is now being updated properly, too!.. But for now, it's just a lovely sphere.
Previewed on a Z-Fold 5 because.. well, that's my phone!
Only the Contact and Gallery sections left to go! (and translation... ヤバイ)

I willed myself to work on the Projects section today - I think React is finally starting to click!
I'll get around to animating it all later, but embedding a video preview of projects was a brilliant idea..!

This morning I put together this little Skills section!
..Although I'm still missing half the bloody Icons, I'm pretty happy with it so far!
I've been working on the shader demo too, but ReactJS makes managing a simple Canvas far more difficult than it needs to be 🙃

And we now have a (still very much WIP) Landing Page!
The Red part is a canvas element, which will eventually host a little shader demo :D
For now, while I'm still figuring out the overall structure of the site, this'll do

Slapping some paint on really masks the spaghetti going on behind the scenes... :D
The Landing page seems like a logical next step!

After some (okay, quite a lot) of fighting, we have... a WIP Nav bar!
For what it's worth, React is still better than hacking HTML with vanilla JS. But I'd still prefer to do the whole damn thing in C, honestly.

I haven't touched my Portfolio site in about 3 years... oops!
I've done a bit of greyboxing (yes, that's a gamedev term - I'm not a web dev!) in draw.io - a lovely little tool, if you haven't encountered it already.
And now it's time for me to remember why I hate React JS so much... 😅

And now, Refraction!
To get this working, I had to trace for t_max. Which took me longer to figure out than I'd like to admit ^^;
But now objects can be transparent, and refract light!

I've been playing around with Ray marching over the past couple days - I figured I'd start a thread to post my progress!
To start, here's my first little scene :D

Tonight I finally got around to adding Shadows to my toy Vulkan Ray tracer
Setting up SBT bindings aside, it's honestly quite painless to trace rays through Vulkan! I'm enjoying it quite a bit!
I guess i'll do Indirect lighting next...!

Once I finish up all of my pending uni work, I can finally get back to working through my Rendering course :D
I feel like I've finally got a solid understanding of the fundamentals; Just, some of the maths is still a little scary 😅

Dark Knight's PVP small rework in #ffxiv 7.1 is alright, actually
... Until the other team notices that you exist, and decide to ruin your day 😅
Maybe we bullied them too much in Frontlines...

Time to pretend like I'm a Level Designer!!!
We're at the point in the Jingle Jam now where our core mechanics are there... just, we haven't actually put things together yet (or made UI!)
This deadline's gonna be tight - I'm pretty busy this week - but we'll at the very least have a cool demo :D

Jingle Jam Update!
We now have Skills! (well, *a* skill, but still!)
Unity's ScriptableObjects are pretty neat; In this little system, each skill can have unique behaviour, while being easily editable!
It's nice to use an engine for once, not just make one :D

I'm making a Model Importer for my Game Engine!
DirectX 12 makes it pretty easy to get a renderer up and running compared to Vulkan... But I still don't like the amount of ID3D12Whatever-pointer-to-pointer-like interfaces in the API

Making some progress on this year's #jinglejam!
I spent some time cooking up a neat little Character controller with spline-based camera movement. Next up, Skills!
This is my first time working in Unity in years - I'm loving it so far! (apart from the Animation system...)
