Thanks to the new C API and plugin system, I've moved parts of the development to the open.
I'm currently building a plugin for editing "voxel shapes" in the editor, which will be helpful for quickly making assets or blocking out worlds.
Next up: Region-based tooling (extruding, magic wand for selection, etc.) and a stamp tool.

Apparently @nothings (I think this is Sean Barrett's official Mastodon handle) did a twitch stream about his new voxel raycast engine, and someone uploaded it to Youtube (I can't find it on STB's Youtube or Twitch account). Makes a very interesting watch if you're interested in #voxels.
This awesome video of Voxel Doom makes me want to dig deeper into Doom modding, but I gotta finish my Quake stuff first!

Ok, it turns out that in #Goxel you assign materials to layers, while in #MagicaVoxel they're assigned to the current palette entry.
In addition, in Goxel the color is always the diffuse color, while the emission color is set per material. So if you want a bunch of different colored lights on the same model, you'd have a separate layer per light color. In MagicaVoxel the material type is set to "emit", and the color of that entry in the palette is the emission color.
I think the MagicaVoxel approach is a lot closer to what I want. It doesn't have a Linux version, but it runs fine under WINE.
The existing .vox importer for #Godot doesn't support greedy mesh generation with materials, but I should be able to implement that pretty easily.

Yes it looks pretty, but high details voxel models are not made for mobile 👀
Please keep in mind voxels != lowpoly by definition, that's why I've been publishing performance focused voxel packs recently (Simple series), those are ok for mobile.

@esdin I make games, computer graphics experiments, and tools!

Been a bit slow lately with school finishing up, but I hope to share more here in the future.

Why am I reading patent applications?
I cannot say, but i can say that this one is a real pageturner.

Look what I'm doing instead of making second EP.
I wanted to try #voxels for a very very long time.
Any Red Dwarf fans on Mastodon? I created these models in Magicavoxel some time last year. Maybe I should make some more? Any suggestions welcome! #mastoart #magicavoxel #voxels #voxelart #reddwarf #TalkieToaster
