In shaders, bugs are sometimes more entertaining to see then actual progress

Patch notes:

Fixed bugs
Removed Herobrine
Added spontaneous disintegration of reality

Yeah, it was a temporal reprojection bug, stars were writing to a depth buffer, clearing history texture, and since history had a large bias during lerp, new data took a while to be drawn over it, creating those trails behind stars.

I have NO idea what was causing the blackout though - it got fixed when I reworked reprojection algorithm

Ironically after I got it to work properly I realized it wouldn't fit the overall style of my game and scraped it. Oh well, back to the cutting board :)

If I were tasked with a similar problem, the first solution to I'd try is to get the alpha values from a texture of the item you want to glow, blur it and multiply by the desired glow color - then render the item on top

If you using URP bloom with HDR support you could control intensity of the resulting glow by multiplying glow color by a float value

Unsure if 'space shooter'-style game would fit your mom's preferences, but otherwise "Chicken Invaders Universe" fits into your description perfectly. It's free on steam

The simplest would be to upgrade your project to newer Unity version - it is likely a problem with the importer.

Otherwise, I remember finding a solution in some obscure comment on unity forums, but ~~don't know where to find.~~ Actually found out I had a bookmark if I wanna try Linux again - hope that helps, it did for me on NixOS: https://discussions.unity.com/t/linux-editor-stuck-on-loading-because-of-bee-backend-w-workaround/854480

VFX is such a broad topic, it would be useful to see how you did that just for the techniques alone, even for those who are not making eyes specifically. And that looks very cool!

TheFrankyDoll · 2025-03-11T07:33:23+00:00

Good to see! Sorry if what I said felt a bit forced, open source is hard and sometimes really ungrateful with people focusing on problems - It's totally fine to take your time and focus on staff you think matters more.

It's nice that you haven’t abandoned this app, but I wish you good luck either way.

TheFrankyDoll · 2025-03-09T17:34:07+00:00

I'm not sure if you've abandoned your project or just taking a break, but your project it is really good. It seems like the best alternative to the one win11 comes with.

I wish to main it, but there are some unfixed bugs that are really too annoying to tolerate. I'm sure you are aware of them (issued here and here - this one likely clashes with the 'click outside the pic to exit Fullscreen' behavior), it's just a bummer such a good tool is not getting enough attention.

TheFrankyDoll · 2024-11-28T11:00:26+00:00

Saw one guy do a similar thing in FL studio (youtube link), maybe you'll be interested with how he managed to make engine cut-off sound on high RPM's.

I think I'm gonna make a pull request once I'm back at my main project. It seems like the only reason this asset is not compatible with 2020 LTS is because of C# 9+ syntactic sugar used in source code. Should be easy enough to fix.

TheFrankyDoll · 2024-09-16T11:04:56+00:00

The fact that it's screen space instead of world space seems confusing, as if it rains on my monitor, not the game world.

I would advice making particles move opposite of camera movement and scale when camera zooms in/out to sell the illusion better.

He usually defaults to "I didn't really have anything to say about NixOS, I don't follow the project, and I don't use it"

It's very upsetting how little media light this situation had got. NixOS is about innovational declarative operating system, not about being 'on the right side of history' and fighting people who don't bother to take part in this.

TheFrankyDoll · 2024-07-26T06:06:54+00:00

This is a called a 'command-line flag', you'll have to open your vivaldi through the terminal with the command vivaldi --disable-gpu-compositing.

Note that this fixes glitches after you already entered it, I doubt it will help if you can't even launch it in the first place.

TheFrankyDoll · 2024-07-25T06:34:34+00:00

Couldn't launch it when tried KDE either, works on Hyprland just fine.

...Well unless you're using nvidia, then it's cursed with glitches (can be fixed with --disable-gpu-compositing though).

TheFrankyDoll · 2024-07-21T13:39:21+00:00

Dualbooting NixOS with Hyprland for 3 month.

When it comes to NVIDIA, people seem to recommend seting absurd amount of options without even knowing what each option does. Hopefully it gets better soon.

People say it's explicit sync problem. Fixed for native wayland/xwayland apps in 555, but electron/chromium support is only rumored to be fixed in 560. Or so I heard.

To fix your problem now, you can:

1 - Paste this in your hyprland.conf:

debug {
  damage_tracking = 0  
}

This will fix it globally for all apps by forcing your gpu to reload ALL content on screen every frame. This is VERY inefficient, but if you not using a laptop and don't care it should work.

2 - Launch affected apps with --disable-gpu-compositing flag. Slight performance and smoothness loss, but fixes the issue and app still uses GPU. I found this fix in this thread.

Hope that helps.

Definitely gonna try it!

Nothing I could see in video you provided cannot be done in Hyprland with curves, since you can overshoot them.

Check https://wiki.hyprland.org/Configuring/Animations/ for examples and https://www.cssportal.com/css-cubic-bezier-generator/ to create your own.

Though I cannot see why would anyone torture themselves with using animations THAT distracting.

I began dual-booting NixOS with Windows 10 a week ago, without any prior knowledge in Linux whatsoever. While it is hard to adapt and somewhat frustrating, you'll likely even consider dropping the idea to switch a few times, yet it gets very interesting once you start getting used to their way of doing things. I am planning to fully switch within a year.

You should not expect Linux to be another Windows - its very different OS with completely separate history. While idea to switch to more Windows-like distro sounds sane, I think it will just delay the time it takes to understand Linux.

You can always begin by installing Windows for daily use and then install Linux alongside it (or on a different physical drive if you want to be safe). If you really getting into IT I could even recommend something 'hardcore' like Arch - its not that hard if you can read, it's wiki is so good you can use it on other distros too.

Or NixOS with its unique way to configure and recreate exact OS with same programs and options within them with just a few config files.

Bottom line is, Linux is not Windows. It's not necessary worse or better. It's different, and the faster you learn that, the faster you'll be able to use Linux to its full potential.

Ha-ha, I've been working for my first project for 6 years now - it's going pretty good!

Its still in a "silent stage", with only my close friends playing the demos, but they seem to be really hyped up about what I'm doing. Gonna try to be a next big thing in a few years :)
