[THREAD] Videos from #GodotCon Brussels 2019
Thanks to @czlowiekimadlo we could stream GodotCon talks, and user Rayos sent me edited versions for each of them, which I'm now uploading with a detailed outline. I'll post links whenever they're online, and the playlist eventually.
First talk on Feb 4 was from Paweł Fertyk of Miskatonic Studio, talking about his experience with 3D features of Godot while developing his first game, #Intrepid (which you can play on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/992860/Intrepid/)
#GodotCon #GodotEngine
The next talk was a great demo by @PawelMogila on how to use a shader to compute particle collisions on the GPU.
We sadly had a problem with the stream at that time, so this one is a phone recording.
#GodotCon #GodotEngine
We then had a presentation by Aleksandar Gavrilović explaining why his studio Gamechuck decided to move from GM:S 1.4 to Godot, the tests they made to validate their decision and some of the concerns it raises. #GodotCon #GodotEngine
Our lead developer Juan Linietsky @reduz then did the extended version of his @fosdem talk about making a high quality 3D game with #FOSS tools (#GodotEngine #b3d #GIMP), showing how Godot's new TPS demo was made. #GodotCon
Looks great! #GodotEngine has really come a long way. The triplanar textured, geometry based modelling part of the video was especially useful.
@[email protected] mentions that there's no #FOSS alternative to #SubstancePainter though. Is he aware of #ArmorPaint? Binaries are not gratis, but the project and code is #FOSS / #libre.
@Blort @reduz He's aware of ArmorPaint, but AFAIK he's not convinced that it will ever be a professionally relevant alternative to Substance Painter. He mostly advocates for such features to become part of Blender itself, and the Blender devs seem to agree.
I can't judge about ArmorPaint myself, I never tried it.
