   Ikruel: Sure, contact me anytime! I found scripting Blender both pleasureable and useful. In the previous company, we scripted it heavily. It served as the level editor (even generator at some point) for handheld racing games. Python integration is solid. C++ is only for modifications of Blender itself (like viewport,…

   Pavlovich, what a fantastic talk! As an aspiring tech artist who has an interest in proceduralism and tools, this makes me very excited at the possiblities. The fact it's all in python (if I read that correct earlier) too tells me I should continue to learn that. Can't wait for the extended version if you are able to do…

   Thanks for the answers again Luiz. Cool to hear it's all Python, makes me confident i could pull something like that off as well. Also just wondering, Mike jumped over it without mentioning, but I assume the reason you went from Quixel to Substance is because of the 'pipelineability' ? Like you can't call it to batch…

And no luiz, my name's not Robert, it's Laurens ;) (Maybe i should add my portfolio link back to my sig, didn't mean to remove that). it's funny how both you and Mike have done Eat3D vids, so have I with the Dozer series. Wish I could get back to updating that, applying some of this…

   Hey Avvi, That's awesome that you're writing it in Blender, I might send you some PMs in the future. I have a long term goal of contributing to Blender and get it a bit more game production friendly, but I haven't found the time to dedicate to it. It seems like you can do a lot just in Python which seems awesome. I could…

   Sorry Laurens, I saw the Xoliul name and I thought it was Robbert, who worked with you on writing the shader. And yeah, Riki is a great guy, we used to work with him at SOE. Yeah, like Mike mentioned, the meshes are decimated meshes. They're fine for props and organic stuff like rocks, characters and subD like hard edge…
