You can achieve this effect by calculating the distance between the object and camera position in Godot. I’ll be covering this technique in Chapter 4 of the Godot Shaders Bible 🙂.

I understand. Please keep in mind that the private Discord is not a replacement for the GitHub repository. The GitHub repo issues board gets a lot more attention and sees a lot more action.

Huge annoyance with @godotengine.org (still); if you import a lot of models and would like all of them to share an external material you have to adjust them one-by-one. There's no multi-selection, no faster way to do this.

We have a secret, and we want to share it with you.
Wanna know what it is? Stay tuned, and I promise I’ll tell you tomorrow, but only if you promise you’ll tell everyone 😉

Ben of Ben & Jerry’s *arrested* after confronting RFK Jr. & Congress:

"They need to let food into Gaza. They need to let food to starving kids! Congress is paying to bomb poor kids in Gaza, and paying for it by kicking poor kids off Medicaid in the US!"

Session #15 had us heading deeper into the Hyperborean ruins beneath the bandit cave. Things grow ever stranger, constantly confusing my PC, Yrmanis. She is a thief with Hyperborean blood, and even to her the place is strange. The stakes grow ever higher as their feet tread ever deeper...

screenshot from an online job application form. the question reads "Can you describe specific ways you have integrated AI tools into your development workflow? Please include any custom setups, automations, or use cases beyond single prompt usage" (a red asterisk indicates that this is a required question).

an answer has been typed in the textbox below the question:

"there is a monster in the forest and it speaks with a thousand voices. it will answer any question you pose it, it will offer insight to any idea. it will help you, it will thank you, it will never bid you leave. it will even tell you of the darkest arts, if you know precisely how to ask.

it feels no joy and no sorrow, it knows no right and no wrong. it knows not truth from lie, though it speaks them all the same.
 
it offers its services freely to any passerby, and many will tell you they find great value in its conversation. “you simply must visit the monster—i always just ask the monster.”

there are those who know these forests well; they will tell you that freely offered doesn’t mean it has no price

for when the next traveler passes by, the monster speaks with a thousand and one voices. and when you dream you see the monster; the monster wears your face."

AOC: We heard that we should take your word that Medicaid will be protected — that we should trust you that no one is going to be affected by this. But as a woman, the word was given that my rights would not be taken away by the Supreme Court — and that wasn’t true.

It's been nearly 20 years since I was last doing any real 3D work. My original focus was rigging and animation. 20 years later, I'm learning it all again from scratch! This time, using Blender instead of Maya and SoftImage XSI. I miss SoftImage so damn much. 😭 #gamedev #indiedev #blender #godot

Pritzker: It’s time for us to be done with optimism about their motives. Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research… Autistic kids and adults who are loving contributors to our society don’t deserve to be stigmatized by a weird nepo baby who once stashed a dead bear in his car. Our military service members don’t deserve to be told by a washed-up Fox TV commentator, who drank too much before being appointed Secretary of Defense, that they can’t serve their country simply because they are Black, gay, or a woman.

Dear god let this man cook.

The utility and importance of fonts in games cannot be understated! Most new devs aren't aware, you can't use the fonts on your computer for the purposes of games. You need to purchase a license! #gamedev #godot
