Science nodule

[civic dew]

Woah nice shaders

Honestly I’m hoping for air swimming in starlance or CH

[woeful garden]

rn im extending the nodule with a 6-sided docking port

[civic dew]

Nice

What shaders did you use btw

[astral spoke]

what shaders are these

[woeful garden]

let me see

i thaught you would recognize the shaders

[astral spoke]

no

[woeful garden]

visual vibrance

see more in the cosmic horizons server, preciselly in showcase channel

[astral spoke]

is it heavy

[woeful garden]

idk tbf

but following to my pc, it does not really consumts that mutch compared to other shaders

[astral spoke]

also

there is a mod being developed with orbits like starlance and the creator said there will be swimming

[woeful garden]

example:

euphoria patches consumts an eye of my face (a joke btw) compared to this one

[woeful garden]

i have been developing a mod also about space

[astral spoke]

swimming in space

[woeful garden]

but stopped due to break

[woeful garden]

yes

but kinda weird one swimming (in my mod i mean)

[astral spoke]

the mod wwhich im talking about is gonna be like ksp and not like free flying

[woeful garden]

hmmm, have trying to develop a ksp-like mod also

with quads instead of 3D planets

[astral spoke]

quads?

wdym

[woeful garden]

you are not unity familiarized right?

[astral spoke]

no

[woeful garden]

a quad is a 2D square

also used on mc

[astral spoke]

a square is 2d

[woeful garden]

commonly on visuals

[woeful garden]

quads are called in game squares, likely semi 2D (or 3-2D squares)

[civic dew]

It’s like a particle that always faces you I think

[woeful garden]

thats more likely a billboard

[astral spoke]

yes but squares are 2d

[civic dew]

Ah mb

[astral spoke]

already

[civic dew]

Not necessarily

[astral spoke]

a square in 3d space is a cube

[woeful garden]

btw, a billboard is commonly used in quads

[astral spoke]

wdym

[civic dew]

You can represent a square in a 3d space

[woeful garden]

thats what i have tryied to tell

[astral spoke]

its still a 2d object

isnt it?

[woeful garden]

it is, but in 3D space

[civic dew]

Yes but it ceases to be 2d when represented in 3d, if that makes sense

[woeful garden]

but 3D and 2D is dif

[astral spoke]

so youre talking about png in 3d space

[civic dew]

Lower dimensional objects can be represented in higher dimensions

[woeful garden]

kinda of

[astral spoke]

flat earth?

[woeful garden]

not really

more like a quad

[astral spoke]

it always faces your camera?

[woeful garden]

let me explain you on an image to simplify...

[woeful garden]

thats a billboard

[astral spoke]

just send it already

[woeful garden]

that are usually programmed

[woeful garden]

wait my internet is going like bs sorry

[astral spoke]

i cant find it

[civic dew]

Calm down

[woeful garden]

im calmed

[astral spoke]

me too

it only shows me of the quad vechicle

what a pain, words having multiple meanings

[civic dew]

I know you are, you seem incapable of not chilling

[woeful garden]

@astral spoke

[astral spoke]

whats the difference

[woeful garden]

bad one image, but its kinda good to represent

[astral spoke]

quad has less triangles

[woeful garden]

and you see whats a plain or plane btw

[civic dew]

Ahhhh you want to make the planets less resource hungry

[woeful garden]

bc is simple

[woeful garden]

nope, i will use vanilla mechanics

[civic dew]

Oh?

[astral spoke]

i still dont understand you lmao

[woeful garden]

in mc, sun, moon and kinda some more are quads

[astral spoke]

they are pngs

[tame coral]

just gotta put some kerbals in it for eternity now

[woeful garden]

hmmmm, they are pngs transformed to quads, and then rendered in billboards to look to the worlds always to the player

resuming: java ass code

and some json btw

[astral spoke]

what?

[woeful garden]

code

[astral spoke]

i thought it was the skybox

skybox's work

[woeful garden]

skybox contains all of this

[astral spoke]

well so but they arent in 3d space

[woeful garden]

its like skybox on java is too complicated

"skybox" does not exist itself as name in games, its just a parallax + following stuff to player

[astral spoke]

yea

uh

wait

does it exist in 3d space or does it not

but rendered as a cube

[woeful garden]

skybox are stuff following to player

[woeful garden]

thats a cubebox

[astral spoke]

cube and box is the same pretty much

[woeful garden]

resuming: 3D cube with 6 quads

with internal texture

[astral spoke]

anyways,

[woeful garden]

that follows the player

[astral spoke]

what would be the use of in using planets

[woeful garden]

its as simple as this: rendering vanilla-ish planets like mc does

or mojang does

did you heard of world renderer in mc? thats my point

[astral spoke]

bro

[woeful garden]

what

[astral spoke]

"vanilla-ish" doesnt exist

[civic dew]

What does it accomplish is what I’m curious about

[woeful garden]

i mean, youa re correct on this point

[civic dew]

Like what’s the end goal doing this

[astral spoke]

how are you gonna use quads for planets????????????

or do you mean using the skybox

[woeful garden]

i kinda extended you the world renderer mechanic

maybe i should just shortened you to: i will use world renderer

or: i will use skybox mechanics

[astral spoke]

sorry but the language barrier is the thing

i think

[woeful garden]

im aware of this since the start

[astral spoke]

what do you mean world renderer

[woeful garden]

im too confusing

[astral spoke]

no your english is just too confusing

anyways

[woeful garden]

i mean, world rendering is what does render what you call "skybox"

[astral spoke]

were you just saying to use the skybox

and put planets in it

[woeful garden]

i will use it in my mod

[astral spoke]

and fake movement

bruh

you could just say that

[woeful garden]

movement is already in vanilla, is used by mojang

[civic dew]

So what does this do, does it just look nicer or is there some other point to it

[woeful garden]

you can always ask it

[astral spoke]

no i meant that fake movement of your ship

when you rotate the ship the skybox rotates isnstead of the ship right?

[woeful garden]

the ship wont rotate, the skybox will

[astral spoke]

OMG THATS WHAT IM SAYING

[woeful garden]

basicly yes

[woeful garden]

sorry

i got confused

[astral spoke]

and the mod which i was mentioning

uses that

[woeful garden]

here is an old video of my mod (basicly deprecated) im doing a new mod:

... i will send it rn

[astral spoke]

i know how it looks

[woeful garden]

ooooh

[astral spoke]

a modder called doctor4t used it in his mod

[woeful garden]

no, i mean this mod

[astral spoke]

thats just beyond oxygen

[woeful garden]

nope

[astral spoke]

omg

[woeful garden]

the planet is done by me, and every mod is done by me

[astral spoke]

lemme reword

this is just beyond oxygen air system

anyways

are you still doing it or wha

[woeful garden]

i tryied to remake it

due quads have some limits

like do not rotating on any position

and doing quads + billboard is too hard

[astral spoke]

are you a fan of ksp

[woeful garden]

yes kinda off

[wind crystal]

what mod is the scaffold from?

Looks nice

[civic dew]

Hmm I’m actually not sure on this one
