@stroughtonsmith Let us know when you accidentally vibe code us a better Minecraft.

@futurepunk Hytale!

@stroughtonsmith is this ever coming to TestFlight? It's making me miss Bryce so much
Sunsets next?
@simsaens this is still a ‘throwaway prototype’
I wasn’t planning on productizing it -

@stroughtonsmith you are slowly building the Trapper Keeper I had in the 90s.

I spent untold hours in Bryce3D as a kid making silly scenes just like this. It did this stuff with machines a thousand times less powerful than my Mac mini. Certainly puts things into perspective…
@stroughtonsmith Looks like Amiga. A port?

I thought my water should have some translucency and falloff, so I can put things underneath it
@stroughtonsmith is this going to be broadly available? Any chance for an iPhone version?
Seeing these updates has made me incredibly nostalgic for iTracer, which was a basic 3D rendering app for the original iPhone, but also the first app that made me think, “woah, this is literally just a small computer.”

@TheEjj @stroughtonsmith in another week it will be Blender, I want Bryce

@stroughtonsmith Looks like the excitement made you stay up all night …

I started with a blank project template 5 hours ago. Now I've got a little 3D scene graph editor with gizmos, wireframe and shaded view modes, texturing, drag and drop OBJ file importing, and tile-based raytraced rendering, that runs on Mac and iPad.
Thanks Codex!
@stroughtonsmith Is this sidebar/inspector pane a system component or custom?

@fuzzyhead all custom

@stroughtonsmith this screenshot looks so beautiful and pleasing to the eye

Recap: I vibecoded (code unseen, no plan) a 3D editor/renderer that has a scene graph, editing controls, primitives and gizmos, materials, procedural terrain and water, and hardware-accelerated Metal raytracing with soft shadows, clouds and bounce lighting, that runs on Mac and iPad.
Tool: Codex 5.3 Medium
Time: About a day's worth of work has gone into it -

@ankinson @stroughtonsmith And you learned something doing it.

@Arcticulate the code is effectively indistinguishable from my own. I have made zero adjustments
