Kestrel Flight Simulator v0.3.0 just released! 🎉 - #Bevy 0.18 => 0.19 - Continuously updated spherical terrain with LODs - bevy_fs was renamed to kestrel - Added buildings github.com/wesfly/kestr... codeberg.org/wesfly/kestr... #BevyEngine #Aviation #FlightSim #GameDev #OpenSource #Rust

First real and working use of Blender Skein -> aerodynamics model. It took a while to figure out how to translate Skein components to the sim. #FlightSim #GameDev #Rust #DevLog #Aviation #BevyEngine

Bevy 0.20 is out now! It features Solari and DLSS improvements, better BSN syntax, BSN "ready" events, WESL is now Bevy's shader language, more UI widgets (color picker, scrollable list views, dropdowns), Sprite Materials, Extended 2D materials, Pan Orbit Camera, and more! bevy.org/news/bevy-0-...

Why did nobody ever tell me that there are some really amazing debug views in #Bevy ? I just found them by pressing random keys 😅 The keys are F1 and F2 for everyone who wants to try. #GameDev #BevyEngine #FlightSim

You can now download precompiled binaries of Kestrel Flight Simulator with the assets all in one ZIP without having to compile the #Rust code for 30 min. github.com/wesfly/kestr... #Bevy #GameDev #FlightSim

bevy_fs is now Kestrel Flight Simulator github.com/wesfly/kestrel codeberg.org/wesfly/kestrel Stay tuned for upcoming changes to the scenery! #Bevy #Rust #GameDev #FlightSim #DevLog

Working on a new menu using the new bevy_feathers... There are some big changes coming soon 😉 #Bevy #GameDev #Rust #FlightSim

I'm searching for a new name for `bevy_fs` (github.com/wesfly/bevy_fs). It is a new #FlightSim written in #Rust, but the name just hints that this is a flight simulator. I thought of the name "Shearwater Flight Simulator", like the sea bird. If you have better names, I'd love to hear them! Thanks!🙏

Round earth for bevy_fs is in the making... #Bevy #DevLog #Rust #FlightSim

I just implemented changing the cursor when it hovers over one of the switches! I also fixed the tonemapping which makes the simulator look a lot nicer imo github.com/wesfly/bevy_fs codeberg.org/wesfly/bevy_fs #Bevy #GameDev #FlightSim #Rust #Graphics #Aviation

Bevy 0.19 is out now! It features Next Generation Scenes, Render Bigger Scenes Faster, Contact Shadows, More Feathers Widgets, Text Input, Richer Text, App Settings, Post Processing Effects, Improved Skinned Mesh Culling, and more! bevy.org/news/bevy-0-19

First pull request from somebody else merged in bevy_fs! This fixed my previously completely messed up git lfs config on #codeberg codeberg.org/wesfly/bevy_... #Rust #GameDev #FlightSim

On its 6-month anniversary, bevy_fs v0.2.0 released today! 🎉It includes some exciting changes, links below. Thank you so much for your motivation and support. github.com/wesfly/bevy_... codeberg.org/wesfly/bevy_... #Bevy #BevyEngine #Rust #GameDev #FlightSim

Some screenshots I made during the migration to `avian_fdm`. The aeroplane handling is already way more realistic compared to before. #Bevy #BevyEngine #GameDev #Aviation #FlightSim #Rust

Currently implementing avian_fdm (github.com/viccuad/avia...) in bevy_fs. This will temporarily ground the little jet, but it will help it fly way smoother in the future. 😅 🏗️ #Bevy #Rust #FlightSim #Aviation #DevLog #GameDev

bevy_fs v0.1.1 is out! 🥳 🎉 This flight sim release features: - a new menu - a new fighter jet model - better flight dynamics - a new landing gear system with springs and brakes codeberg.org/wesfly/bevy_... github.com/wesfly/bevy_... #Bevy #FlightSim #Aviation #GameDev #Rust #DevLog

Currently working on landing gear spring forces. I once again underestimated the time it takes to get these things working... 😅 #Bevy #FlightSim #Rust #GameDev #DevLog

In the last days (well, more in the last weeks), I made a new model for the flight sim. It took waaay longer than I expected, but I like how it turned out in the end. #Bevy #FlightSim #Blender #ScreenshotSaturday #Rust #DevLog #MilitaryAviation #GameDev

In the last few days, I've been fixing a few bugs, working on a new menu, and making the models and control surfaces more realistic. We also reached 32 stars on GitHub! 🥳 github.com/wesfly/bevy_fs codeberg.org/wesfly/bevy_fs #Bevy #BevyEngine #Rust #DevLog #GameDev #FlightSim #Aviation

I just published v0.1.0! It now features: - Automatic chunk loading - A heads-up-display in the jet - A little feature to rotate the sun with HJKL .. and much more expect bugs 😅 github.com/wesfly/bevy_... codeberg.org/wesfly/bevy_... #Bevy #BevyEngine #GameDev #Rust #FlightSim #Aviation #DevLog

What about a framing composition? 🤔 #wip #blender #blender3d #b3d #3d #BlenderRender

That one feels a bit more like Christmas than the previous one. #b3d #blender3d #blender #3d #DigitalArt #BlenderRender

For anyone wondering how I make these pictures, here's the setup. The rest is lighting and colour grading (and a heck of a lot of samples). #blender #blender3d #b3d #3d

I re-rendered one of my previous files in #Blender 5.0 with #HDR. Edited in #Darktable. #Blender3d #B3D #3D #AbstractArt #DigitalArt

I did some further improvements and this is the result. This doesn't feel like Christmas to me. I'll have to improve the mood a bit (it probably has something to do with the colours). #blender3d #b3d #DigitalArt #3dModelling

When it comes to modelling, often research is more helpful than you might think. This looks much better than what I posted a few days ago. #b3d #blender3d #wip #3d #DigitalArt

After 4 months of nonstop work, I am proud to say that my latest video "Who Am I?" has been uploaded! Everything was created from scratch, including the music. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it! youtu.be/T2DCdCPVNQI?... #youtube #animation #blender

Nutcracker with hilariously bad beard. First time giving fur a try. #blender3d #b3d #3d #blender

This is a slight variation of an image I posted on Unsplash two months ago. I like these warm and round honey-like shapes and colours. #blender3d #b3d #AbstractArt

Blender Foundation and the online developer community proudly present Blender 5.0! ACES, Adaptive Subdivision, HDR, Storyboarding, Geometry Nodes, 588 bugs fixed, and so much more. 📖 Changelog & Download: blender.org/download/rel... 📺 Video Recap: www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wEq... #b3d

Trying some real #photography too...

Of course, abstract art is nice, but realistic renders too. 🤔 #b3d #blender3d #digitalart #blenderrender #3d

These are some earlier WIP versions of one of my artworks. They were made with a random shape (like Suzanne in the right picture) and a simple deform modifier. #b3d #blender3d #abstractart #digitalart

I really love the look of glass dispersion in Blender 😍 #blender3d #b3d #abstractart #digitalart
