[Event] PlayDev - Sunday 31th May
Hello everyone,
We're hosting a jamming session with free coffee(WHAT?!) and internet at the Microsoft offices in Bryanston Johannesburg on the 31th of May this coming Sunday at midday.
When: Sunday, 31 May 2015 from 12:00
Where: Microsoft Campus Bryanston, 3012 William Nicol Drive, Bryanston, Johannesburg
Like the ShaderBash before it, this will be a casual meet up where people can chat, develop and interact with other devs face-to-face. Bring your prototypes, your concepts or your finished games in need of some perspective and let's get stuff done!
There is no official agenda for this one. We could revisit shaders or any other topic that you've been yearning to explore.
If there is enough demand for something in this thread we can officially designate that topic for the day, but there is more than enough slack to just come along and do your own thing while there.
So far we have 3 confirmed, but let's make this a party. Celebration or raiding, your choice!

Comments
[Edit] Actually this might be a good place to ask which weekend day better suits people. Perhaps we can switch it every weekend or so to maximize attendance possibilities for maximal community involvement.
If anybody wants in on this idea...
I'll be posting a freeware-share of my grass billboard shader. Think Tall long grass in front of your face! All over the landscape....
It'll be crude and the code is messy, but it works and it is real easy (drag and drop) to implement.
I slapped together a sample demo in less than five minutes.
Anyway, peeps will be welcome to modify/use it... (with or without accreditation...)
If anybody would like to play around with it before Sunday, and ask me questions, they are welcome to.
So as soon as Load shedding ends. 22:300 tonight. I'll upload on a seperate thread.
I'll be sure to include the sample project.
The source code
And the Built executable demos for both MAC and Windows.
That could be a fascinating topic for us to focus on. Thank you for releasing an entire working project as well. That's great.
Here's the thread for the grass shader stuff.

Will hopefully be there for the next. :)
