99' wants its fur shader back 

Impressive pace of progress lately, it's always nice to be in a rush to do a lot of stuff and actually accomplish a lot

Is this in Unity?

[somin]

yeah, its going pretty well at the moment. I'm not in a rush exactly, but this project fulfills me creatively at the moment. Sadly I'm neglecting some other projects a little. I'll have to find a balance

Yep, Unity all the way.

this still has lots of issues... but it looks kinda nice x)

still a lot of problems with finding a good formula to add / subtract matter when lava or water is flowing over it. It sort of works that the lava solidifies if it flows into a lake or ocean, so, thats cool
the lava needs to look way more viscous though, my attempts so far failed on that part, but with a little more tweaking it  should work out i think.

this is an amazing devlog! Is there anywhere I can look to learn how to do what you're doing?

I just played around with it until I got it running, but i recently found a tutorial that basically does exactly what I did:

I love this kind of stuff -- thanks for the tutorial link!

Maybe try using the temperature value to drive the color of the lava i.e. white hot to warm red to cool dark-grey.
You could also try generating a normalmap based on the outline of the lava to make it appear more raised-up/embossed? (convert the density gradient to nml direction)

Looking forward to seeing where this goes
