I tweet about WebGL, spacecraft, shaders, glTF, and whatever else seems cool.

glTF has released a series of videos for beginners to explain what is glTF. Learn about Clearcoat, Transmission and Volume with this YouTube playlist: https://t.co/0lI2vPIcyA

@RetroboyMarkus Yes, I followed back for DMs. I can't always promise quick replies though😅

[Ed Mackey @emackey]

@JohnMcGarey Hi John, sorry I didn't reply to this sooner. The repository I made contains everything I could find of MegaBall these days, unfortunately. I didn't have version control back then. Still I'm glad to have as much as I was able to rescue from my old A3000 HD.

You can download this @glTF3D spacecraft model.

@garrettkjohnson Right. Not all glTF internals are intended to be directly user-facing. I always imagined this one would be a switch on the UI someplace in an editor. But when saving or loading a glTF file, we didn't want an extra bool to conflict with the thicknessFactor setting.

[Cesium @CesiumJS]

We've redesigned CesiumJS's glTF loader! The new architecture makes it easier to add new features like 3D Tiles Next metadata and instancing. @glTF3D

The @playcanvas engine now supports the #glTF extension KHR_materials_iridescence. This means it now has support for 100% of ratified glTF extensions! 🎉

PR is here: https://t.co/o5H7mTREpr

[glTF 3D @glTF3D]

@SheriffStone @b_opioid Do you know what license is on the chess set model? Can it be published as CC-BY or similar?

[Will Eastcott @willeastcott]

Support for KHR_materials_volume now merged into the @playcanvas engine:

@SheriffStone Slide 7 mentions you converted the chess set to glTF and other formats. Is the glTF version available online anywhere? Would it make a good sample model for showing MaterialX integration with glTF?

[Ed Mackey @emackey]

Also, Khronos has made the slide deck public: https://t.co/sVFA5iMd1N

Siggraph2022では、日本時間8/2 1時にglTFモデルの物理ベースレンダリング（PBR）マテリアルについてのトークがオンライン開催されるようです。
セッションにはglTFの開発元＆規格策定も進めるクロノス・グループのメンバーや、model-viewerを開発するgoogleのエンジニアも登壇予定だそう。
