I worked a LOT today! Ran into a few issues with not committing my models so I lost good ones :( But I eventually thought to do a second round of training on real images not just synthetic data and that made the model a LOT better. Still room for improvement like full color, more data, longer training, etc. But the model is getting really good and I will build a web UI soon!
I was able to create a stub of windows.kinect so that we could have kinect support and redirect it to Microsoft.Kinect. So far its been working well, but the point of this was to get mc 1.61 to not freeze when playing. It was a lot of repetitive work to get the idl and cpp stubs. The other issue is that mc seems to be giving me the trial version which I need to try and fix. Sonic Mania is completely playable as well which is good.

Hi again! Mae here! I realized this project cant continue if i cant get inputs and outputs from KSP, so i went ahead and spent about an hour and a half setting up all of the basic configs to get Kerbal Simpit to run. Below is a video of one of the basic test programs running on my arduino uno, receving altitude data from the game. It works! (it only took me till 1 am…)

PS: I’ve made some progress on the controller layout too, but its not in enough of a finished state to show it
I created the events page to the website!
Hello there! I’ve just started work on a project I’ve been meaning to work on for a long time… Starventure!
Starventure is going to be a survival-sandbox game where you can explore procedurally generated space, like in No Man’s Sky! You’ll have to fly down to new planets to keep yourself alive, whilst also building settlements in the orbits of planets.
Or at least, that’s the hope!
Right now I’ve got a simple visualizer and outline for the PlanetGravity class working, soon this class will be used by StellarRigidbodies to figure out what kind of gravity should be applied to a physics object. Let’s hope this goes well, and happy coding! (also happy pride month!)
I’ve started work on the 3d engine for the game I’ll be making. For the first day, I’ve implemented cascaded shadow maps where there are multiple shadow maps taken at different distances to create a hierarchy of resolution. And I’ve also implemented blinn phong shading. I plan to change this to a PBR pipeline later down the road.
Welcome to Stardance!
