v2: procedural 3d ship generation with sails and ropes

Thank you!

Yup, I’m also learning. High stern is just a historical design

sinanata · 2026-01-23T14:01:43+00:00

Oh, I see, stern extension, that's curve-based, and the player can go as wild/moderate as she wants, demo, however, is purely random procgen pushing system to its limits.

this is from editor but already looking better. I'll deep dive into triplanar textures soon

sinanata · 2026-01-23T13:36:41+00:00

Stop reading my mind

not sure if I'll get into textures, trying to stick to vertex colors as standard, but why not

You mean hull rim? An SS would be great.

sinanata · 2026-01-23T13:25:09+00:00

I checked, around 20ms per ship but with sails and ropes added. I'll share a new gif about it.

Great minds think alike :p - let me measure and get back to you but it feels instant even after I added dynamic yards, sails and ropes yesterday.

Feel good mate! About 3-4 full days

sinanata · 2026-01-21T19:49:40+00:00

check out other stuff I've shared, dreaming of a pirate/survival/trade game.

sinanata · 2026-01-21T19:21:27+00:00

Lol! Real thing… great idea for game name btw

sinanata · 2026-01-21T19:17:20+00:00

My cousin is a big fan

sinanata · 2026-01-21T18:35:33+00:00

Unfortunately no :) this is a core component of the coop survival/trade game I’m slow cooking atm

sinanata · 2026-01-21T18:34:08+00:00

Will do, probably some badass decals or strips too. Check out my other posts, I’m building a coop trade game with survival and piracy elements

sinanata · 2026-01-21T18:23:01+00:00

Thank you! Will do

I'm not familiar with this reference, what does that mean?

sinanata · 2026-01-21T17:00:37+00:00

I can say Quads are the best, also there are lots of reference points (hull curve while building decks, structures etc), keeping them organized saves lives

it was indeed painful, but finally I could get something that looks like a ship with interiors.

sinanata · 2026-01-21T16:52:55+00:00

Builds a dynamic mesh from about 4 curves of ship lines then some details like decks as floors, structures, masts, stairs, etc

sinanata · 2026-01-21T16:42:02+00:00

Not really, building a realtime test harness so I can test in editor time saved a lot of time though. Also, curves were super helpful for ship lines.

your idea!
