Resolution Games this week revealed more information about its upcoming Dungeons & Dragons-based RPG, Battlemarked, which is set to launch later this year on the company’s platform Demeo. The first adventure within Battlemarked is set in Neverwinter Wood, a familiar place for fans of the franchise. The studio is also working with story designer Matt Sernett, who is Battlemarked’s narrative lead. Sernett formerly worked on the D&D tabletop game and consulted for games such as Baldur’s Gate and Ic

Geometry is one of the oldest disciplines in human history, yet the worlds it can describe extend far beyond its original use. What began thousands of years ago as a way to measure land and build pyramids was given rigor by Euclid in ancient Greece, became applied to curves and surfaces in the 19th century, and eventually helped Einstein understand the universe. Yang-Hui He sees geometry as a unifying language for modern physics, a mutual exchange in which each discipline can influence and shap

In the early months of 1660 the taciturn West Country soldier George Monck held the fate of the British Isles in his hands. Oliver Cromwell was dead and the British republic had descended into chaos. The army and its leaders had ousted his son, Richard, and – once again – marched Members of Parliament out of their chamber in Westminster before bolting the door. Monck had been watching at a distance as army chief of Scotland. In the ensuing game of military and strategic chess, played for the fut

This is part 1 of a multi-part series on grass rendering. We’ll start by figuring out how realistic grass should look like, and how herbage can be modeled with the tools we have at our disposal in real-time 3D graphics. Then, we’ll look at how to implement different methods of grass rendering in Godot. However, most of the tutorial will not be Godot-specific aside from some node names and syntax. But before getting into any implementation details, we must first understand what grass even looks

The Transwedge Product Introductory texts on geometric algebra often begin by showing how the geometric product is a combination of the wedge product and the dot product, giving us the formula[1] \(\mathbf a \mathbin{\unicode{x27D1}} \mathbf b = \mathbf a \wedge \mathbf b + \mathbf a \cdot \mathbf b\).(1) However, the above formula holds only for vectors \(\mathbf a\) and \(\mathbf b\).

After months of rumors, Fujifilm has finally, officially announced the X Half, a very compact camera designed to mimic half-frame film cameras and early 2000s point-and-shoots.

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. They say a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, but for computer scientists, two birds in a hole are better still. That’s because those cohabiting birds are the protagonists of a deceptively simple mathematical theorem called the pigeonhole principle. It’s easy to sum up in one short sentence: If six pigeons nestle into five pigeonholes, at least two of them must share a hole. That’s it—that’s the whole thing. “The pigeonhol

Computer architects can’t agree on a way to find the average. For years, academic practitioners in this field have been arguing about the appropriate way to summarize the average performance of their designs. That is: given \(n\) workloads, if system \(A\) outperforms system \(B\) by \(S_1, S_2, \ldots, S_n\) on each, how much faster should you say system \(A\) is, on average? I think this argument is kind of pointless through. For the most part, people tend to use the arithmetic mean \(\left(
