Pine & Parcel, light enough to walk around
Mohamed is deepening Pine & Parcel, an explorable world built with Codex, Blender, and Three.js. The goal is detail that still loads for as many browsers as possible.
Pine & Parcel is already a place, and Mohamed is still adding to it. The post is about a tradeoff. More depth and detail, while staying light enough that as many people as possible can explore it in a browser when the full piece is ready.
That tradeoff is the actual craft in a Three.js world. Detail is cheap to want and expensive to ship. Trees, parcels, and small objects multiply draw calls until a pretty forest becomes a slideshow. Codex and Blender are how the assets get made. The weight budget is how they get to stay.
The author is optimizing for strangers' laptops.

I've been adding more depth and detail to Pine & Parcel 🌲 I'm trying to get the best quality I can while keeping it light enough for as many people as possible to explore in their browser when the full experience is ready. Built with Codex, Blender and @threejs. https://t.co/eNiyrgNp2H
