Help with mesh generation

I'm trying to make a procedural planet, but I can't seem to figure out how to get rid of this weird shading, You can see the individual quads and triangles. The quad diagonal is light and the sides of the quads are dark.

I'm doing this in Unity with a compute shader where I calculate normals with Finite Difference Sampling, but the issue prevails when I just use Unity's "RecalculateNormals" method.

A learned, continuous control that erodes typed speech into wordless glossolalia, same voice the whole way

Not a DSP effect, it's lexical resynthesis from typed input: read a sentence you just invented and erode specific words into plausible others while holding syllable count, stress, and voice fixed across the slide. One dial, clean at 0, wordless tongues at 4, with a deterministic real-word-mishearing mode alongside. Type something, drag to 4, listen: https://huggingface.co/spaces/akshan-main/glossolalia .

The Orani Prism Update - Massive UI Overhaul and Codework

https://the-orani-group.itch.io/the-orani-prism-demo

Hello everyone,

Quick reminder as to what The Orani Prism is: it’s a deterministic non-llm settlement generator that starts with a group of settlers and simulates growth over time until desired population or time amount has reached. It provides NPC with full OGL stats complete with historical memory through events the NPC has been a part of, as well as Big 5 psychological biases. Quests, hooks, rumors, secrets, are all generated from the engagement of NPCs and events as time progresses. Used for quick throwaway locations when you need a location with people for whatever reason.

This week I’ve been doing a lot of spring cleaning with my code. Ensuring everything is tied up where it’s supposed to be, making sure results are appropriate. I’ve also done little add-ons here and there so be sure to read the devlogs for more detail.

But more than that, I’ve majorly overhauled the UI and the user experience to try and make it flow better. For those of you who have used the Prism before, how do you like the changes? If this is your first time, does it flow well for you?

As always, a question for the Actors and Bards:

Actors: What is the best way to convey sensory experience in a format like this? How best would want conveyed sights, sounds, smells, and so on? Would you like it more in a narrative style? Bullet point? The Actor’s Sides are your you, and I want to make the settlement feel alive the way you want.

Bards: I provide you with a gigantic mountain of information. What information is most important for you? What holds the highest priority of order/accessibility? What kinds of demographic or sorting information do you need insight on?

Thank you for your time, see you at the table.

\-The Orani Group

Better quest generation

Hey everyone, I'm looking into a novel way to do procedural quest generation.

Hey everyone, I'm looking into a novel way to do procedural quest generation. The world that I'm in and that they have causal sense to them. For example if I recently go to a village and I sell 50,000 loaves of bread, I don't want to get a quest about getting more bread for the village as they should be already overloaded.

I know many people right now are trying to use other LLMs to do the generation but I wanted to try an alternative approach using graph grammars to support emergent properties.

In the screenshot that you see above me, I have my current world state expressed as a series of nodes, which are my facts, and then my edges, which connect them together. To generate a new Quest, I start by generating a new Quest node and that Quest node expands, similar to how an L-system works, by continuously rewriting it based on matching rules.

If there is a relic at the current quest location, then claim it and move on.

I have a few interesting properties that come out of this:

1. I can generate non-linear quests based on different pre-conditions. For example when I want the user to go to a castle and rescue a prisoner, based on the castle properties, say for example whether there's a secret tunnel. I can make branching possibilities such that the user could either do a stealthy infiltration or could assault the castle.
2. Because everything is modeled in a relationship, I can, for example, model how two NPCs might feel for each other. I can use this as a justification for generating a quest for one of them to get revenge.



There is probably an additional phase that I need to do for this, which is generating the necessary narrative constructs, so actual story, exposition, and dialogue to satisfy the planned quests that are there. This will probably be a relatively good use case for LLMs to fill it in by doing very short generation where I can keep them constrained, or I might just explore doing the actual generation through graph grammars as well, which might be interesting.

Anyways I'm looking for people who are also interested in procedural quest generation so that I can explore further pieces as well as make much larger examples of interesting procedural quests. Please hit me up :)

Keeping short-seed world gen from getting repetitive

I'm building Altworld, a browser-based life sim where players describe a world in a sentence and the game builds a persistent setting from that. I keep hitting the same wall: short seeds produce very similar results. A one-line medieval prompt almost always gives a village with a tavern, a blacksmith, and a forest nearby.

I've tweaked the prompt to push for more variation, but the fix is brittle. It either breaks coherence or loops back to the same few templates. Has anyone solved the problem of keeping procgen diverse when the input is this sparse? I'm curious how others inject controlled randomness without losing the thread of the setting.
