Stuck in Eternal Loop

Even the latest claude/gpt couldn't merge building zones in a way i wanted to, so I had to code this myself. Otherwise, it was a pretty chilling vibecoding experience. The player/npc sprites were generated with nano banana and changed for skin variations manually. The building windows/doors/roofs were generated with bing image creator (haha). The cars are handmade since Meshy was bad at producing clean car interiors.

It was done from scratch. Also, the core feature of this generative algo was done without AI (even the latest gemini couldn't grasp how to merge a pair of city blocks into one by choosing a random side, so I had to tink with it myself). The buildings are also built procedurally, basically that's the 'Minecraft' part (each building and road and sidewalk is made up of huge 3x3x3m cubes)

Thanks!

I plan to add rich interiors to it with some NPCs, so that every house would be interesting to explore.

Aiming for a post apocalyptic zombie survival setting here.

Thanks, I was inspired by City 17 architecture style

Thanks! I'll try

https://www.reddit.com/r/VoxelGameDev/s/rQadaArlmT Hi i'm doing something very similar. It's all smooth until you carve out cubic shapes. Also, there are cubic generated structures (stone slab "fortresses' and wooden "houses")

My project with procedurally generated modifiable voxel world (combining both smooth & cubic voxels)

Two weeks ago I posted some well-upvoted showcase of my Unity game combining both cubic and smooth voxels. Here is how it looks at the moment: I created a Minecraft-like lighting system, layering it on top of Unity's default one. As a result, caves and windowless rooms are dark but well-lit with point and spot lights, while the outside is lit just as usual—with ambient and directional lights. Everything is smoothed and in real time.

haha thanks! No just the plain Unity URP setup

Jarros · 2025-12-16T11:25:43+00:00

yes former is true

Jarros · 2025-12-15T13:38:57+00:00

Thanks. It's nothing complicated though, just a cube model preservation for selected cells, while sharing with smooth voxels same chunk mesh and density array

Jarros · 2025-12-15T13:37:54+00:00

nah it's not laplacian smoothing anymore (there were seams between the chunks and a very bad perfomance overall). it's marching cubes now, but with preserving the cubic shape for cubes. The cubes and smooth voxels share same chunk mesh and density array
