“Alex is a critical asset to the success of LucasArts and their upcoming game, the Force Unleashed. Despite a grueling workpace, he is able to not only complete a task load that I wouldn't wish on anyone but also implement core-system features in the background. One of the greatest highlights came when he implemented the scripting engine in the span of one week. One of the most prolific coders Lucas, it is hard to find a system that he hasn't touched.”

Hello LinkedIn! fxgui has been updated to v6.0.1, with a huge focus on the fxicons module. You can now add custom libraries for your apps, override all defaults at once, superpose icons, and a lot more! You can check the latest version on GitHub: https://lnkd.in/e_x4su5J Or install it via PyPI: And check the updated documentation: https://lnkd.in/e77XJYNR Have a lovely day! #Python #OpenSource #VFX #Qt #UI

Starting to wonder if I need to do a post on making a custom interpolator for Unity's shader graph. In most cases you can speed up shader calculations by doing stuff inside of the vertex processor stage, before the primitive assembly stage, in most graphics pipelines instead of waiting to do certain things inside of the fragment calculation in the Pixel Processor stage. After talking with people about the shader graph, I have come to realize it is not common information that you can create a custom interpolator in the shader graph to make sure certain calculations are done inside of the vertex stage to help boost performance of the shader graph on the GPU. For those wondering why quick example. Let's say you have 200,000 vertexes being rendered in game at a resolution of 3840 by 2160 (my main monitor resolution). The vertex shader only has to do calculations on 200,000 vertexes while the fragment shader has to do calculations for each pixel. A resolution of 3840 by 2160 = 8,294,400 pixels. So doing a calculation 200,000 times is a lot cheaper than 8,294,400 times in most cases. There can be some data types you are accessing that could be simpler in the fragment shader, but most of the time it will not be able to make up the performance difference. #unity #shader

MidiWrist Unleashed v1.0.4 is now available with a per-preset configurable update interval. This allows much finer details when using #motioncontrol and is what I used in this #Osmose video: https://lnkd.in/ePJYP9Ki More about #MidiWrist Unleashed: https://uwyn.com/mwu

‘Beary Sings INFO 6205 Data Structures and Algorithms (Acoustic Indie Version 1)’ is on #SoundCloud https://lnkd.in/eMuPxWju I think this one wins at least one Grammy. Beary Sings INFO 6205 Data Structures and Algorithms Step into the rhythm of coding with "Beary Sings INFO 6205 Data Structures and Algorithms ," crafted by the talented Liam Bear Brown. This track, featuring insightful lyrics by Nik Bear Brown and the smooth vocals of Beary, is a fusion of musical charm and technical prowess. The song encapsulates the essence of INFO 6205, a course dedicated to algorithms and data structures, blending spoken word verses and catchy choruses to illustrate complex programming concepts. Perfect for students of computer science and enthusiasts of algorithmic logic, this song delivers both education and entertainment. Its lyrics guide listeners through the realms of sorting algorithms, caching strategies, and the systematic dance of data structure optimization—all set to an engaging beat that makes learning almost divine. Whether you're coding late into the night or gearing up for a study session, "Algorithmic Beats" offers the perfect backdrop to energize and inspire. So, hit play, turn up the volume, and let Professor Bear lead you through the dynamic world of algorithms and data structures. #AlgorithmicBeats #CoderAnthem #LiamBearBrown #NikBearBrown #INFO6205 #DataStructures #Algorithms #Python #CodingMusic #EducationalMusic #NortheasternUniversity #Coursera

While Sora slumbers, Kling is the king. Yesterday's version 1.0 updates and 1.5 model release include several new features. KLING 1.5 Model: • Generates 1080p HD videos at the same price as the previous model. • Shows a significant improvement in image quality, dynamic quality, and prompt relevance compared to KLING 1.0. KLING 1.0 Model: • Motion Brush feature allows precise control over the movement of elements within an image. • Supports video generation from images in various aspect ratios with a maximum length of 5 seconds. Other Recent Upgrades: • AI Videos supports the simultaneous generation of 4 videos. • Image-to-Video supports a 10-second duration. • AI Image resolution can be increased by up to 4 times. #aivideo #hollywood #sora #kling #filmproduction

Reusing or importing premade animations for multiple characters is a common need in games. In this tutorial we packed all the info (only 12 min!) that you need to make your characters move naturally in your environment. The current #animation system in #unity has been around for a while, but it might still be challenging for newcomers. Hope this video and #ebook help 💪

Recently, I ran some tests using the Pyro tool in C4D and found the optimization relationship quite impressive. It's surprisingly fast for a feature that hasn't been around for long, and I rendered it with Redshift. It's remarkable how much more complete C4D is today compared to when I started using R14 years ago. Witnessing this evolution in the industry is truly gratifying because it shows that the value of the process is recognized. When you can optimize it in favor of artistic quality, everything is worth it. #Cinema4d #Pyro #cgi #3danimation

Big changes to " unity " XRI 3.x at hand ! To move towards more modular data + input better aligned with current " open xr " hand actions. Its also a work around for " vision pro " not providing physics raycasts through os inputs. Plus also consolidates near and far interactions into " attach transforms ".. The prior " affordances " system is now deprecated and will be removed in XRI 5.x as we shift from controller - based to pure " open xr " hand interactions. That also solves the problem of input hierarchies. My friend Eric from " unity " will do a proper live stream later this month. For now the gdc talk has just gone up and details the new architecture .. REF : > GDC 2024 " unity XRI 3.0 " session [ https://lnkd.in/gKAaaV63 ]

Generative AI and VR/AR tech is evolving faster than we think. Watch this video and ask yourself: Are we ready for what the next 5 years will bring? Or are we still clinging to old creative methods while the world rushes past us? Here’s Figmin XR on Quest 3, building in passthrough mode outside our house. Combined with Gen 3 from Runway. Will you dive into the future, or do you still have one foot in the past? Or maybe a combination of the two, combining the old and the new.. will be key? Let me know what you think! #CreativeTech #VR #ai
