    1. Uhh... Anyone got a good guide to set up arm/finger IK for Mixamo?
    2. I'm insecure about my graphics and would love some feedback :)
    3. I rebuilt my physics placement tool Grabbit from scratch. It was released back in 2021, and the new version is a whole new level of Physics placement. I'm here to gather feedback and your impressions!

    2. I made Squingle Arcade - it’s out now - made with Unity

    1. I have developed a "fake soft body" lightweight real-time car deformation system for my combat racing project.
    2. Did I make the combat feel more satisfying, or is it just busier?

    1. Here's how we made our Painterly Shader!
    2. Benchmarked CoreCLR player in Unity with CPU path tracing
    3. I made a new Unity editor tool: Hold a shortcut key to let any selected object fall, settle using physics in the editor. Script available in the description! (the tool adds colliders and RB while you hold the key combination and cleans itself up automatically when you let go)
