  Soft skin 

  Currently working on a library of skinning called SofSkin. It’s purpose is to make skinning in a different way: less rubberish and more mesh/geometry-oriented. The idea is to use edges of the mesh as springs that tries to recover their initial length by pulling/pushing on the vertices. The lexical field is focused on anatomy, to keep the code lifefull.

  The integration in godot is on its way, as shown in this video:

  The repository is hosted in gitlab: https://gitlab.com/frankiezafe/SoftSkin

  “The currently dominant 3D graphics and simulation paradigm, based on triangle/polygon meshes, is fundamentally flawed. Meshes only model surfaces – a hollow and thus very incomplete approximation of reality. Mesh content creation is complex and technically demanding; costly with high barriers of entry. Many layers of “hacks” (e.g. UVs) make editing and distributing mesh assets prohibitively cumbersome.”

  The atomontage engine is shifting the paradigm of 3D from surfaces to volumes. A super interesting point of view. I will start a research on libre project have the same approach!

  Custom export python script for blender and custom import javascript for threejs to enable morphing of vertex normal in morph targets. It might seems a bit technical, but without this, the object loaded in threejs doesn’t react to light correctly: without this export, if faces change direction after deformation, the lack of normal morphing implies that the illumination of faces is not correct. Try without, it will be clear 🙂

  Test it here:

  

  Or check this video:

  Anyway, the script is here: faces https://github.com/frankiezafe/Blender-scripts/blob/master/custom_threejs_keyshapes_export.py, with some javascript in comment to load it.

  Enjoy!

  First “official” screenshots of Sisyphus, a web experiment in collaboration with Simone Niquille.

  It is available in itch.io also: https://frankiezafe.itch.io/sisyphus, and I will try to post development logs there instead of here. To follow them, just check the bottom of the itch.io page.

  Little week-end challenge: reproducing the “fish” shader demonstrated by Matt Nava in his talk at GDC last year.

  The shader Giant Squid Studio developed (at 3:50):

  After a few hours (not many), shader in godot:

  The source code is available on github: https://github.com/frankiezafe/Fish-shader

  Release month continues with FlatMapper, a videomapping sketch running in processing.

  Source code is here: https://github.com/frankiezafe/FlatMapper

  And here is a demo video of the applicationt:

  A lot of work has been done on the OSC addon for godot this week: 2 new classes for reception and emission fully integrated in the engine (with icon and UI configuration) and an OSCmessage class available in gdscript to read the received message.

  The repositiories are here:

  • https://github.com/djiamnot/gdosc, official one
  • https://github.com/frankiezafe/gdosc, a fork of gdosc where i develop
  • https://github.com/frankiezafe/gdosc-demo, a demo project showing the functionlities of the new classes

  Next move is to create a GDNative extension, to enable distribution of the addon.
