Decided to check out how water is rendered in Counter-Strike 2. Given how interactive water in CS2 is, I expected to see some cellular fluid simulation, but turns out they just use a low-resolution off-screen buffer with flat 2D decals used for various aspects of water. Reminds me of HL2 water :)

This is a great thread @hillsguy.bsky.social, I'll add a bit more context here for anyone interested. Yes there's no fancy sim - it just uses a water interaction buffer as a target for the particle system rendering, so we could use the power of particle system we already have.

Here's a rough script. Feel free to adapt it as you see fit! You can go MUCH shorter if you want and just ask your senator to censure JD Vance in the US Senate for racist hatemongering. www.senate.gov/senators/sen...

Here's the thing. If a bunch of rich people manage to bully the party into kicking out the elected candidate and replace him with literally anyone and we go into the election with a person chosen by a bunch of rich people that nobody had a chance to vote for our democracy is already dead.

There are a lot of reasons to hate the NYT but right now my top one is that they’ve convinced me to defend Joe Biden and that really sucks

It’s clear to me that the energy about getting Biden to quit would be more effectively spent by correcting the rogue Supreme Court. He should “seize the initiative, make the court’s constitutional homicide the focus of his campaign and unleash his most able prosecutor, VP Harris.
