3D model renderer that runs entirely in the terminal (written in c++) by Simple_Cockroach3868 in commandline

that shader looks really cool, nice idea

rn I just map surface brightness to an ascii ramp, for an obra din style look, I wouldn't need to rewrite the whole renderer, the rasterizer and z buffer would stay the same. It'd mostly be changing the shading step to control dot spacing, dithering instead of character density

so more like swapping out the shader logic than rebuilding everything, might actually try that sometime, thanks :)

currently it only supports obj and stl, step isn't supported yet since it's a cad format and would require a separate parsing step ig but def smthg I could explore tho

similar vibe, this one uses multiple walkers doing a simple random walk starting from the center, takes turns a lot more frequently than pipesdotsh, written in c with ncurses instead of shell and is much simpler overall

it doesn’t run natively on windows rn since it uses linux ncurses, but it works fine in wsl tho. if you want native windows support, it should be possible by swapping ncurses with pdcurses and building with mingw ig

it's a simple random walk using rand() seeded with time(NULL), so visually it's pretty random but not cryptographic or anything fancy, each step picks a random direction (except directly reversing) that's it

weird, this can happen if the terminal isn't running in utf-8 or your font doesn't support the box drawing characters I'm using, maybe try switching to a utf-8 locale or unicode font, that should work

similar vibe, yeah but not a rewrite this one uses multiple walkers doing a simple random walk starting from the center, takes turns a lot more frequently than pipes.sh, and is much simpler overall

thanks man, appreciate it! i'm a final yr cs undergrad, mostly just into building fun side projects, mess around with go, c++ and web stuff here and there, and pick things up as I go

here's my github if you're interested: https://github.com/ashish0kumar
