Build 0.4

Cloth Simulation, Wear and Tear, Post FX Expansion

Build 0.4 is the biggest update yet. Facet now ships a full PBD cloth simulator, a Wear and Tear shader system, seven new post-processing effects, and a redesigned material workflow.

• Real-time PBD cloth with Verlet integration and structural, shear, and bend constraint projection
• Four pin presets: top-edge, two-corners, four-corners, none
• Wind simulation with direction and turbulence sliders
• Freeze mode to lock cloth in its current draped state
• Full material system integration — all Facet materials apply to cloth meshes

• Edge Wear: procedural world-space edge detection highlights geometry silhouettes
• Rust: layered noise-based rust map with tint, coverage, and roughness control
• Patina: oxidation simulation with custom color blending
• Grunge: world-projected dirt and grime layer with scale and opacity controls
• Scratch: multi-layer directional scratches with density and angle control
• All effects stack and blend with the base PBR material non-destructively

• Seven new passes: VHS, Film Grain, Glare, Lens Flare, Chromatic Aberration, ASCII, Pixelate
• Full EffectComposer pipeline with per-pass toggle and sliders
• Color Correction (always-on): brightness, contrast, saturation, hue shift, gamma
• Bloom, SSAO, and Depth of Field retained and improved

• XYZ orientation gizmo in bottom-right corner
• H key toggles all helpers and gizmos
• Performance gate warnings for heavy operations
• History (undo/redo) expanded to cover cloth and wear operations

Build 0.3

Import and Export, Plan Gating, and Material System Overhaul

Build 0.3 introduces the binary .facet project format, a full plan system, and a redesigned material card workflow with per-material preview spheres.

• Binary .facet project file saves all geometry, materials, transforms, and post FX state
• AES-GCM encryption with a 32-byte key and 12-byte IV prepended per file
• Drag-and-drop import into the viewport
• Export gated at Radiance plan and above

• Three tiers: Free, Radiance, Perpetual
• planManager.can(feature) API for feature gating across all managers
• Upgrade modal triggered automatically on gated feature access

• Per-material preview sphere with its own isolated scene, camera, and renderer
• Drag-and-drop material assignment with ghost thumbnail preview
• Glass mode auto-detection: transmission greater than 0 enables DoubleSide automatically
• Material copy, paste, and duplicate operations

• Fixed glass transmission refraction caused by incorrectly nulling scene.background
• SVG Y-axis flip now applied via group.scale instead of baked into geometry, fixing frontface winding
• Selection gizmo and helpers rendered in a separate helpersScene not affected by post FX passes

Build 0.2

SVG Import, Primitives, Environment and Transform Controls

Build 0.2 turns Facet into a real scene editor. Import SVG files as extruded 3D geometry, place and transform primitive shapes, and load HDR environments for physically based lighting.

• SVG file import with automatic color group detection from fill attributes
• Each color group becomes a separate mesh with its own assignable material
• Extrusion depth, bevel size, and bevel segments controlled per object
• Shared bounding box centering across all color groups

• Cube, Sphere, Cylinder, Torus, Plane, Cone, Tetrahedron, Octahedron
• Each primitive spawns with a default material pre-assigned
• Parametric subdivision controls for smooth geometry

• HDR environment loading with drag-and-drop support
• Environment rotation via Shift and right-click drag
• Background intensity slider: 0 hides the environment, 1 shows it
• Environment always set on scene.environment for accurate reflections and glass refraction

• W, R, S keyboard shortcuts for Move, Rotate, Scale
• TransformControls gizmo rendered in helpers scene, not affected by post FX
• Pivot dot and pulse ring selection indicators
• Hover outline and selection outline boxes

Build 0.1

Initial Launch — PBR Material Editor in the Browser

The first public build of Facet. A fully browser-based PBR material editor powered by Three.js, running natively inside DivHunt with no install required.

• Three.js WebGL renderer with physically-based materials via MeshPhysicalMaterial
• Full PBR property set: diffuse color, metalness, roughness, emissive, opacity, IOR
• Custom HSV color picker with wheel and triangle selector
• Real-time material preview with environment reflections

• Manager pattern: each system is an isolated, event-driven module
• Event bus for decoupled communication between all managers
• State manager for UI slider and toggle persistence
• window.__FACET__ global API for external integrations

• Vite build system with multiple entry points per bundle
• Cloudflare Pages deployment via Wrangler CLI
• Supabase Auth with Cloudflare Turnstile bot protection
• Self-hosted Supabase on Hetzner via Coolify for edge functions and database
