Like, what is this shit?
This is 0.5° angular distance on a DirectionalLight.
I can't control these stray pixels in any other way than to set angular distance to 0.0° which disables the soft falloff effect. You know, the whole point of PCSS?

Where's the data? I can't get the "Altimeter Corrected Elevations 2" dataset for some reason. It's supposed to be hosted here: www.earthdata.nasa.gov/data/catalog...
Frankly, why don't they use torrents for this stuff?

Very cool!
Tried to do something similar for a personal project that fell through, but instead of meshing the digits, i did it all in a pixel shader ^^'
The main benefit is contact shadows, but i'm also just more comfortable writing shader code than mesh code...

former post was me adding blue noise on top of the image based on image brightness. this time i'm using an approximation of poisson process (www.shadertoy.com/view/4dsSR2 "gauss process")
it's Almost Physically-Based™

OBS bicubic scaling really sucks. It's possible to do bicubic scaling right but this is not it

i was reading the first issue of Linux Format and had to do a double take. as far as i can tell, this "CD ROM" logo is made up just for this ad page

had an epiphany a few days ago. tangent-space raymarched chains on a line ribbon mesh, now with depth writing!
it relies on a magic number to not look bad, but it's working i guess!

Nice! I did something similar a while ago, although I don't have a project to use it in 😅
My line renderer adds a duplicate of the first and last point to allow one to make it look rounded in the pixel shader. I think I've seen No Man's Sky do their lasers like this
