Starting to get promising results from our fully automated game-ready 3D asset pipeline! 🎉
AI-generated high-poly models often have messy topology and UVs, but our pipeline now turns them into optimized, LOD-friendly 3D assets with PBR textures, all with one click.
I still genuinely think the best thing you can do as a developing artist is recognize that GenAI is mostly a trap that a lot of people are falling for. There are so many skills you can grow and AI is more or less a distraction, an inferior workflow and delivers worse results.
@KenneyNL@StiekemeHenk@noobtrooper40 I love using the engine but it's difficult to justify even recommending it to anyone. I'm not shocked at all by the reception of the release, not because of the quality of it, but because of the consistently atrocious communication from the team. Being antagonistic to developers
@KenneyNL@StiekemeHenk@noobtrooper40 will only lead to them not wanting to use the engine - which is sure to result in a platform that provides nothing more than slop. I hope they turn it around and reflect on it. The best thing they have to offer is the engine - but they seem to hate the people that want to use it.

I think many underestimate just how quickly things happen in s&box. Custom command lists were added in a week. A bulk of all the mapping tools were added in just a few weeks. The development speed of the engine is unlike that any other open source project out there. #sbox
Last month I wanted to be able to use custom CommandLists within a Panel in @s8box, but it wasn't possible.
Thankfully, the devs are insanely responsive to feedback and the ability to do this merged yesterday thanks to @antopilodev!
This week we added developer tutorials 📚 random item drops 🎁 a new welcome screen 👋 As well as a more consistent chat experience, new APIs, performance improvements and fixes.

Another appreciation post for https://t.co/1BlBxqg2uc - all these seeds are getting planted and are going to grow into something great in no time. #s8box#sbox#gamedev
Coming across a lot of wider bugs as I thoroughly test the triangulation and tris to quads operations in mapping tools I've been working on. Hopefully got the last of them reported today so I can wrap up and make a PR for them ASAP.
