With Blender 4.0 comes some welcome changes to the Principled BSDF, and https://physicallybased.info is now updated to reflect those changes when you choose Blender from the Engine dropdown.

IOR is now controlling both reflection and refraction, and Specular Tint is working as expected for metals. You can also find values for Subsurface Radius for select materials.

@mcc I've encountered some crashes on 4.0 beta, so I can't recommend it for anything else than testing. Full version of 4.0 is coming in just a few weeks though.

    @daridrea Oh definitely! Also the fact that they are indeed quiet is intriguing to me because I bet it’s amazing to just float through the air, just feeling the wind.

    Are html color codes (eg #​00ACAB is a pleasant shade of teal) linear RGB or sRGB?

    @aeva Sometimes it’s P3 🤷‍♂️

    How do you vote your way out of climate change when all the political parties are in favour of destroying the planet?

    UK: Labour racing to be identical to Tories.
    Canada: Liberals and NDP are as bad as Conservatives.
    US: choice between big business with a rainbow flag or big business with a Confederate flag.

    @_benui 1. Vote on the party that is destroying the planet the least
    2. Vote with your wallet
    3. Spread awareness and invite to discussions
    4. Never give up

    @_benui Didn't mean to come across as snarky. It's probably my own pessimism showing through.

    1. That's where we are now. Lesser of evils.
    2. Many countries have green electricity choices. See what's available in your country and make the switch.
    3. Everyone may be aware we have a problem, they are just not aware of the severity.
    4. Don't give up on trying to make a change and don't cave in to the pessimism. I see too much of that "we're all screwed anyway" attitude.

    I’ve added a color space converter to https://physicallybased.info/tools/

    I found myself jumping between different DCC softwares and web based tools whenever I needed to convert colors, so I combined all the features I needed into one. I tried to make it as minimal and intuitive as possible, because most things related to color science isn't.

    Made possible with the help of the great Color.js library from https://colorjs.io/ made by @leaverou and @svgeesus

    Converting between different color spaces with a web based widget.

    If you’re using social networks to find news about the things you’re interested in (yes, that includes Mastodon), it’s time to stop and use something that was actually made for that: RSS!

    So I made a quick video about this old tech, and how it’s still the absolute best way of curating what you read, watch, receive, or listen to:

    @thelinuxEXP Feedly recently showed a glimpse of their true colors, which made me switch to Inoreader, which turned out to be great! https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@BartWronski/110108233445164710
