MGS seems to be pulling yet another trick on top of that:

Vertices are subtly animated to oscillate, making the water flow seem more irregular.

This irregularity is enhanced by the typical polygon wobbliness of the PS1.

An frequent trick to enhance the waterfall effect is to slightly increase the distance between vertices (or squash texture coordinates) as the geometry goes down.

This affects the scrolling velocity for the texture in each section, making it look like gravity is accelerating the water.

For Max to Blender peeps - is there any native way to do this now? Select verts, switch to an orthographic view, and then align all to the left most/top most/etc based on that view? Using a plugin here but it's broken for 5 rn.
Blender screenshot showing geometry from a top view, with 5 misaligned vertices selected. To the right is an opened pie menu for aligning the vertices to the top/left/right/bottom based on view angle. Blender screenshot showing the vertices all aligned after using the pie menu to align them to the right.

Pythagoras started a math cult that worshiped a triangle with 10 vertices which I just think is neat. The cult was horrible, but like... It's a math cult.

found this reply where I tried to explain what is vertex color, might help others!
question: This video is awesome. Can you tell me a bit more about vertex color like what is it's actual purpose? answer:Thank you, sure: Im simplifying but every vertex has built-in attributes: a position, a normal, UVW, Skins weights, ... and also Vertex color (RGBA). The best way to see it is that for every vertex you have an extra "data slot" in which you can store a RGBA Color and you can use it for anything. The most common purpose is to use that data in a shader For example you made a wind shader that displace vertices. But you want some parts of the mesh to not be affected, how to mask the effect? Well you could use a black and white texture, and map your mesh to that texture. Or you could use the Vertex color, and say every vertices with Red > 0 won't move. In some case it's easier than to use a texture and more performant More advanced example: Let's say you have a mesh composed of multiple submeshes (like a tree with branches). If you want to animated each branch in a shader, you can make it so all vertices of a branch have the RGB value that correspond to the XYZ local position of the branch's pivot. in this case you're storing XYZ position, in RGB vertex color! Other example: You shader you could the vertices Alpha to drive the Smoothness. Particle System in most game engine, already use vertex color without you knowing: In unity when you tint a particle, you actually change the vertex color of the particles and the particle shaders happens to color its output with the vertex color's RGB, and opacity with the vertex alpha! We call it vertex color, but in the end it's a Vector 4 / float 4 / 4 numbers, you can do whatever you want with it If you get deeper into the rabbit hole, you'll realize even UVs can be visualized as vertex color!

Day 5 part 2. got cube generation with ArrayMesh working!! YIPPEE!!! This was one of the scariest parts for me so I'm really proud that I got it to work 👍

A snippet of some code of generating vertices of a cube, as well as a 3D cube on the right to demonstrate! All in Godot and VSCode.

I've been working on a cool project where I recreate a local-to-me landmark for a future VRChat world. I'm particularly proud of the bridge so far. I followed a 1930's planning diagram and used single vertices connected with edges. Then I used a "Skin" modifier in Blender to create the thickness!
A screenshot in Blender with the vertices highlighted in orange on my version of the Deception Pass bridge. The colors are in greyscale to highlight the selected vertex points in orange. #blender #bridge #3d An engineering diagram from the 1930s of Deception Pass and Canoe Pass bridges crossing Whidbey island (misspelled Whidby in the diagram), Pass Island, and Fidalgo Island. The measurements are in imperial, so I had to put Blender in a cursed Imperial measurement mode to accomplish this. Its super weird to use that feature since its usually in metric. A Unity screenshot with temporary textures on the terrain and no plants. But it does have water, clouds, and a fog effect. I still need to make the rockfaces more accurate, and give the whole area foliage. But so far it is looking nice. This will be for a world in VRChat eventually. #VRChat #VRWorld #wip Finally, here is a photo I have taken from the beach I intend to recreate for this view. The rockfaces are much taller than in my WIPs, but I will get them more accurate eventually. I am recreating the feel of the place rather than exact 1:1 since I don't think its possible to put that much detail into something that will be otherwise a distant feature.

- and then I add the newly created vertices from the extrude to the new vertex group, and remove them from the old one. Then I use a second shrinkwrap modifier and target the new vertex group with an offset that causes it to be "raised" off the base mesh it's shrinkwrapped to by a specific height.

... So I’m currently implementing a routine to automatically generate index buffers from raw vertex streams - detecting duplicate vertices, building an optimized index list, and producing a compact vertex buffer that is GPU-cache friendly.

After like three weeks of tinkering I've finally found evidence that the dead tokens in Qwen 3 4B Instruct 2507 occupy four vertices of a hypercube. After looking at it through float32 precision forever I decided finally to look at the bfloat16 numbers and the lattice structure is right there.

Fruitful morning! Increased performance of fill mesh generation by a blistering 2600%!

Spline points are now cached and vertices are processed in parallel on all cores 🚀 Makes for very smooth iteration. #unity3d #pcg #gamedev #indiedev

Without one of the 3 vertices of the triangle in place, well the whole structure collapses. As I hit the apex of my body, the seat felt like it had a little further to go, slipping out from under me. I came down HARD. Full belly flop from a good 10-12 feet in the air right onto my left arm.

I'm working on a review of Karen Hao's "Empire of AI" that basically boils down to this: the thesis is beautiful and well-supported, but Geoffrey Moore might have a thing or two to offer in re crossing chasms. Most lay readers understand linearly, not in terms of the edges and vertices of a graph.
