Welcome to my blog, I'm Rick and mainly a react dev with a deep interest in creative industries and general 3D.
I am a creative frontend developer, I specialise in React, GLSL, postprocessing and R3F. I love to experiment with code and deal with complex topics.
How to Get Flooring For a GLTF Model From blender to GLTF and R3F/Threejs
Creating flooring for a 3D GLTF model. Workflow from blender to R3F/Threejs for flooring in a 3D model.
Glossy Water From Blender to R3F Using Light Emitting HDR Images
Generating water like surface using blenders shader node graph, baking the normals and exporting to R3F. Also using a hdr light emitting image for realistic lighting.
Mosaic Tiling With Semi Seamless Textures in a R3F or Threejs Setting
Using GLSL shaders to tile a texture to avoid none repeating patterns or minimize it by rotating UV's around a pivot point for each tile. Essentially mosaic rotation or UV rotations.
Height Dependant Node Based Shader Baked to a Textures for GLTF models
Using blenders shader graph to generate a height dependant mixture of two textures and then baking this to a texture for use in a GLTF Model.
Bloom and Chaining Effect Composers, Whilst Using Three's Layers
Bloom effect using R3F, three's layers and chaining effect composers. The end result being merging two renders into one and giving selective bloom.
Volumetric Rendering in R3F of 3D Noise in a 2D Texture
A proof of concept to render 3D noise sliced into rows of a 2D texture. For effects like fog, clouds sand storms etc. Have a play with the codesandbox and change the settings!
