How to Shade Particles in Viewport? April 3, 2020, 9:59 a.m.
Fun question, had a go at a cheap lighting setup. I merge in all the lights in the scene, read their colour, intensity, exposure, and use that plus their position to do some simple lighting calculations.
Could extend it to do normals, maybe even a estimation of the number of points between the light and the current point to do shadowing, but I reckon this works well enough as a test.

Time to dump Orbolt? April 2, 2020, 11:32 p.m.
Yeah, there's so many examples now of online marketplaces, with good templates for whats good, featured things, new releases etc (think apple's app store, epic store, steam etc), would love to get that level of quality and ease of use into orbolt, or an orbolt replacement.
