@xeophin This sounds familiar! I worked on a 3d project before I went on paternity leave and the hardest part may have been finding a balance between “who cares, no-one is going to see this anyway” and “let me just grab the calipers and measure the diameter of a door handle in the real world”.
@pb This is very much my state of mind right now (and I just looooove doing things «the right way», which doesn't help when you're on a tight deadline …)
@xeophin Oh yeah! “I could just build model these stairs, shouldn’t take more than fifteen minutes. Or I could teach myself how to do it with Geometry Nodes and I’ll have them ready by next week 🤔”
@pb Well, one idea fell flat (instancing on points works well, until you want to have some specific instances on specific points – I guess there’s a way, but I did not have enough time to figure it out), but the other works well: measuring proximity to other objects, storing that in the vertices, and then using that to influence the shader. Allows you to beautifully fade out objects.
