NMS Multiverse: Early Teaser RaYRoD TV 2025-06-10 | For over 9 years, I've been dedicated to reverse engineering, documenting, and studying No Man's Sky's engine in extensive detail — https://x.com/RaYRoD_TV/status/1932172944022609954This journey has resulted in the creation of a comprehensive suite of developer tools that push the boundaries of what's possible in the game. Key Development Tools: - A GUI that enables live, in-game universe reshaping - A comprehensive framework (similar to Skyrim's SKSE) that allows implementation of entirely new features and game mechanics- Numerous additional tools for advanced modding capabilities.Despite significant setbacks—including a house fire, earthquake damage, and hardware failures— imgur.com/a/22hIdw6 — the Multiverse fan project has continued to progress steadily. With the developer tools now mature and stable, I've begun work on the definitive version of the Multiverse project itself. While still in its early stages, this represents a major milestone in the project's evolution. What's coming: A complete transformation of the No Man's Sky experience.📺 JOIN THE COMMUNITYDiscord: discord.gg/2xhF6HZKsg(Get more frequent progress updates!)💖 SUPPORT THE PROJECTI've worked full-time on No Man's Sky for 9+ years.

Test Vid RaYRoD TV 2024-04-07 | https://x.com/RaYRoD_TV/status/1777041031747264855Just dropping in with an update on the Multiverse fan project. It's been my main focus lately, and I'm thrilled with how it's shaping up!I've been hard at work optimizing, balancing, and visually enhancing various aspects of the game engine to make it more immersive and eye candy. One exciting addition is the implementation of dynamic and shifting art styles for numerous elements of the game, including new animations being added to help the universe feel more alive.Plus, I've been diving deep into programming new systems (gameplay & visual) and writing new shader code. One of the shaders revamps space visuals. The Multiverse is now being designed for both flatscreen and VR.Procedurally generated solar systems with some shader enhancements and new programmed systems will introduce a variety of new visual styles and features to them.Stay tuned for more updates (more frequent updates) as the project continues to evolve!- Song Credit:Highways by Euan Ellis

Galaxy Map UI (Custom Animation Test) RaYRoD TV 2022-09-16 | Testing out a custom animation, to a UI element. This animation doesn't exist in the original game.
Multiverse API - Animated Galaxy Map RaYRoD TV 2022-09-11 | I programmed new logic for No Man's Sky, which allows 'static' data to be animated. In doing so, I was able to create this animated effect for the new galaxy map that I'm working on.If you look closely, you can also see the colors transitioning subtly...being the result of perceptual color interpolation.Lots of other things going on, under the hood 🙂
NMS Multiverse: Algorithmic Color Schemes (Early Demo) RaYRoD TV 2021-01-01 | The Multiverse now contains an essentially infinite variety of consistently unique and algorithmic color schemes. Unique color values are intelligently applied to all things in-game in designated places; using color theory. Everything in-game has it's own carefully mapped out color range, and visual combinations will be significantly different per planet and have their own distinctive styles.Lots more!------Instrumental: John Dunder: Ragunda - soundcloud.com/johndunder/ragunda#NoMansSky #NoMansSkyMultiVerse #RaYRoDsMultiverse #NMSOverhaul #NoMansSkyNextGen

RaYRoDs Flight Overhaul For Origins: Preview RaYRoD TV 2020-10-11 | An optional flight overhaul coming to v1.2 of the MultiVerse pre-alpha. I'll release a full changelog when v1.2 is released. It's a massive update & an overhaul to the previous version.The longer you hold boost, the speed will progressively increase. You don't have to move fast. Everything responds to pressure if you are using a PS4 controller. With a mouse & keyboard, you also don't have to move fast. Handling is less stiff, but not too loose. There may be an optional version which allows for low flight. The default MultiVerse uses vanilla handling, with some improvements. Launching is also now similar to the E3 2014 trailer and take off feels less restrictive. I also noticed how in old trailers, ships appeared to be faster. So, I've been having a bit of fun with it.Ps. Pardon the flickering. It was a recording issue lolPs. Terrain generation is sped up, as of recently, terrain on planets now generates all at once and things on planets are visible from space: twitter.com/RaYRoD_TV/status/1315930086491725826This used to be an issue back in 2016, but things have changed & I've improved it further. I have an unlisted video right here showcasing me flying at an extremely high speed to make sure that you can't outfly the terrain generation:youtu.be/yRL2uyp2z4kThis is also all without my 'Seamless Generation' component, which will push things even further without additional cost. It will create a near consistent universe where everything will begin to feel as if it was already there and always will be there.Work in Progress changelog for the MultiVerse pre-alpha v1.2:https://justpaste.it/44mgmWhat is the Mutiverse?https://justpaste.it/MultiverseMy Discord Server:discord.gg/hPxEcdUIf you'd like to join in on the pre-alpha with progressive updates, feel free to become a Patreon supporter:patreon.com/raysContent

Dreams PS4: Proc Gen tools experimentation (early - WIP) RaYRoD TV 2020-04-24 | Just a video of me messing around a bit. I'm in the process of creating a 'procedural generation' toolkit for Dreams. It's very messy at the moment, as I'm kind of in the middle of making it and organizing it. I'll clean it up later. I'm testing with randomly generated sky colors with certain rules. One of the rules (currently) causes the leaves of trees to resemble the sky color, but at the same time output in different shades... so that they blend properly with the sky and don't end up over-saturated. This is a work in progress and no where representative of what it will ultimately look like. I'll be uploading higher quality videos soon as I get more familiar with Dreams and it's vast variety of tools and endless possibilities. I also will be working fully procedural environments that are unique upon each iteration (including dynamically changing parts to trees and other kinds of environmental assets and mechanics) in Dreams, when I am not working on the NMS MultiVerse.

NMS: RaYRoDs MultiVerse - G̶r̶e̶e̶n̶ Forest #2 (Exploration) RaYRoD TV 2019-04-06 | While testing and refining some things with my application that generates a unique in-game 'multiverse' upon each run... I stumbled across a few alternate variations of the "Green Forest" biome. I liked the environments, so, I wanted to record and share :)Disclaimer: This is all one biome, a dynamic biome, and 95% of things for this biome are currently turned off. In the full version, there will be many, many, many, things to encounter. Well, essentially infinite variety. I use mostly flat terrain for testing purposes only. The full version will have infinite terrain variety. I also developed my own kind of superformula for flora and buildings (not showcased yet). Down the line at some point, I will share more about it. I am also working on this fan project daily, and I am excited to release it publicly as soon as I am satisfied with the overall consistency and variety of it. :)- RaYRoD TVIf you would like to donate to support my efforts, feel free to here: paypal.me/RaYRoDTVFeel Free to Join my Discord Server for frequent updates: discord.gg/TqfbMHDOther Social Media Platforms:Facebook:facebook.com/RaysContentTwitter:twitter.com/RaYRoD_TV

No Mans Sky: RaYRoDs MultiVerse - Berry Field RaYRoD TV 2018-10-31 | This was a random planet that I loaded into on an empty slot while testing with one of the dynamic (consistently unique) environmental styles that I coded. Every planet is unique, but consistent in quality with consistently unique styles of environmental generation. As I continue to work on things, there will be a more depth to all environments. I liked this planet, so, I thought that I'd share. :)More content will be shown soon.P.s.Flat planets are a possibility with my terrain overhaul; however, I usually force all planets to have flat terrain for testing purposes. I use it as a flat canvas for biome design... but ultimately, every planet will have unique terrain in the final version.Additional Credits: The construct shown in this video is a courtesy of MSSP. nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/323
No Mans Sky: RaYRoDs MultiVerse - 3D Modeled Eerie Forest RaYRoD TV 2018-10-30 | Hello, I'm very sorry for the lack of video content lately! :) I went dark for a while to heavily focus on the 'MultiVerse' application that I am coding in C# (for anyone/everyone who is patiently waiting), and also to broaden different areas of personal programmatic expertise. I will be uploading more video content frequently now that I am back... and I look forward to getting this project ready and refined for the public, and releasing it as soon as it's ready.About this video:This 'Eerie' biome is 3D modeled by yours truly. Lately, I've been diving into 3D modeling and sculpting... in order to create new content for No Man's Sky. With all of the new content among the recent updates, there's a lot of in-game assets to work with... and a new door has also opened for me to create 3rd party content for this game as well. Recently, I've accomplished 3D modeled volumetric weather (this needs a bit of refinement), and also region-specific weather. This means that we can have fields and forests of fireflies, snowy mountaintops, misty caves, underwater fog, and potentially anything. Normally, the game uses 2-dimensional textures for weather effects... however, I've begun working on 3D, volumetric weather that is restricted to designated planetary regions. ~ RaYRoD TVRead more about 'RaYRoD's Multi-Verse' Here: https://justpaste.it/5c7xcFeel free to join my Discord Server: discord.gg/dXtpsmy

Alpine Clifts: RaYRoDs Overhaul - Upcoming REBOOT for NEXT RaYRoD TV 2018-07-17 | This is a different alpine biome variant that I've made, out of the other 86 unique alpine biomes. The alpine biome has been shown to be used in different ways, in pre-release footages and screenshots.Here are 5 examples of pre-release Alpine Biomes that are now possible with the upcoming NMS Overhaul Reboot for NEXT (and extended further):https://i.imgur.com/rn9lkB1.jpghttps://i.imgur.com/QwIzbmU.jpgimgur.com/PZNflFdhttps://i.imgur.com/tg2hsJS.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/jXTnloz.pngYou can view the 'Alpine Lake' variant Here: youtu.be/9mQBh61_8uE
No Mans Sky: 2013 Style Swamp Replication - RaYRoDs Overhaul - Upcoming REBOOT for NEXT RaYRoD TV 2018-07-16 | This video showcases a replication of a pre-release style swamp among a few random planets. I handcrafted everything in here (and I have about 86 distinctively unique variations of this biome type). I handcrafted the biome. I handcrafted all of the color palettes in real-time. I handcrafted the atmospherics in real-time. I handcrafted the procedural weather. I handcrafted various distinctive swamp color palettes in real-time, and this video showcases one of them. All swamps will be 100% procedural, but the rules set in play will keep consistent beauty.I also look forward to further working post NEXT.Here is a pre-release swamp screenshot that I used as a concept for this biome's creation: https://i.imgur.com/ksbx7Xe.jpg
No Mans Sky: RaYRoDs Overhaul (Wip REBOOT) - Alpine Lake + Seamless Generation RaYRoD TV 2018-07-07 | I handcrafted this procedural biome. This Alpine biome is also one of 36 different *unique* alpine variations for the upcoming *reboot* of No Man's Sky: RaYRoD's Overhaul, (that also newly introduces what I am calling 'Seamless Generation'), which emulates a consistent universe with rarely any need for in-game fading. Everything shall feel as if it has already been in place, and always will remain in place with my new overhaul of the game engine's generation.The 'Alpine Lake' biome that I've handcrafted is also a near replication (with my own twist) of an E3 planet titled 'Spekira II' from the Infinite Worlds trailer that I used as a visual conceept, shown here: youtu.be/0APP5WcX8v8?t=18
No Mans Sky: RaYRoDs Overhaul (Wip REBOOT) - Tropical Paradise RaYRoD TV 2018-07-07 | Working with No Man's Sky is a hobby, an enjoyment, and a great learning experience for me. It's also a lot about research. Therefore, I am not willing to put down this experience/research/learning process (because an update is coming) - because by that logic, all modders should put down mod creation because we already know that a new update is bound to hit eventually and potentially break things. Like any other build to No Man's Sky, I have created my own custom build (that also has every single released build of No man's Sky ported by yours truly and integrated into it), that throughout time will still remain a custom build... and does not depend on any updates to have it's value. Some players on PS4, revert to a unique build and play on it. Specifically, The PS4 RC1 build. I am also an artist at heart, and I really just love to create things with the game... like some people love to use Photoshop, or other things... (Like Stoian or Cyrus James Khan). It's fun for them. It doesn't have to be a corporate or official thing.However, here are a few benefits to my approach:1. Working on this project now and polishing it up (helps me to iron out any present issues) - So that when I do port it for NEXT it will be a clean, stable, and bug free port that has been refined beforehand (and won't require extra bug fixing later).2. Re-making the entire Overhaul from scratch provides opportunity for me to create a superior, fresh new take, so that it won't just be a 'RaYRoD's Overhaul' port that I port over, but an Overhaul of the current public 'Immersion Update'3. Re-making the entire Overhaul from scratch has improved framerate, fixed all crashes and other random issues because of the fact that I (removed fragments) of very old and outdated problematic work, is bringing more variety, (I'm attempting to do 4-8 significantly unique biomes per biome type this time, as I want every biome to give you a unique vibe/feeling to it), alongside an overhaul of all other aspects of the mod in general.4. The new version of the mod will be easier to update (with my new way of structing it). Instead of manually updating thousands of biomes, it should only take minutes to update it.Lots more

Here is a small photo album of this "procedural" biome that I handcrafted with unique rules with Hello Games' awesome No Man's Sky product.This lovely planet was filled with "Swamp like" forest islands, dense fog, in-air bubbles jellyfish, sparsed rich resources, ocean bathing Gek, and crystal clear water beaches. There was also an iconic atmospheric Atlas Station like HelloGames' No Man's Sky concept art.Bubble Swamp (Photo Album):imgur.com/a/PCZFU58Song Credits:Twisted Light by Home
No Mans Sky: RaYRoDs Overhaul - E3 Space to Planet Transition RaYRoD TV 2018-05-09 | Thanks to TemplarGFX, we now have a smoother space to planet transition, alongside various other dramatic visual enhancing shader mods by TemplarGFX, (alongside various other shader mods that I've made), and others that are a courtesy of my other friend Lo2k for the next version of RaYRoD's Overhaul.Here a few adjustments from today (Not to mention various others that are not written down here)* Modified PBR, IBL, Specular Calculation, HBAO, Subsurface Scattering, light exposure, shadow strength, ambient lighting* Phong shader lighting gradient cut-off lowered for smoother specular and bigger hotspots* BRDF Parameters adjusted for softer less shiny specular lighting calculations* Ambient lighting bounce and direct light influence lowered* Sunlight Scattering samples increased along with thicker atmosphere for visible strong sunlight* Subsurface Scatter power increased and scale decreased with adjustments to falloff ranges* You won't get super bright white-out planets anymore. Even those planets now have better, more full lighting on them. Dark can now be absolute pitch black (like caves at night time!)* The weird shine is gone from like everything, and skin now looks more like skin. Less like plastic.* Base exposure on light was set to 2.0, which basically just white-out'd anything that was already brightso I dropped it to 1.0 (which is normal) and then upped IBL a bit to compensate* Adjusted the shadow bias for more detailed shadows* Formerly translucent tree leaves, now glow from the other side (only if the sun is behind them on a more direct angle) rather than always glowing*Flying down to planets is now like the trailers with the transition from space to planets in regard to the generation. It's very, very subtle.
No Mans Sky: RaYRoDs Overhaul (Swerved, Stormy, Palm Tree Hills) RaYRoD TV 2018-05-07 | This planet had raging swamp like dust storms, swerved tropical palm trees, swerved hills, grassy caves, floating wave flora, E3 atmospherics and sky colors, a subtle depth of field, and grassy caves. Still working hard on the Immersion Update of RaYRoD's Overhaul.
No Mans Sky: RaYRoDs Overhaul: (E3 YAASRIJ Biome Recreation) - *Work In Progress* RaYRoD TV 2018-05-06 | This is a work in progress, however, I am gradually recreating an "E3 style" biome that I remember seeing in the portal trailer titled "YAASRIJ" for fun. I've made progress, and I find it a joy... working with your game, as another avid fan of No Man's Sky since 2013.This is one of the few variants of the "YAASRIJ" biome.
