I don’t know why I didn’t notice this before, but looking at things above water when your camera is undernieth is causes an interesting effect. Unfortunately, anything using a texture with alpha layers doesn’t go well with the effect, as they appar on screen as if there was no water. Anyway, […]
I purchased a domain name and now I’m starting to set things up. Like Linden Labs, I am looking into many open-source products to tie together. Some of the products will allow me to open up my business so that others may assist me. One thing I would very much […]
