Hi everyone!
After a lot of hard work, Steam Engine Simulator along with its new DLC are complete and released on Steam. It was a long journey - much longer than I anticipated - but I believe it was worth it in the end. The sales that the DLC generated mean tha...

A lot of people have requested adding mechanical sound simulation to Engine Simulator. After a lot of research, I believe I have some pretty decent approaches to do this and in this video, I demonstrate those effects in Steam Engine Simulator. Everything in this video is 100% applicable to Engine Simulator. I believe a lot of what I show will dramatically improve the ICE sound simulation but al...

Hey everyone, a new video will be releasing today about multicylinder engines! I'm a bit behind schedule on this release so unfortunately it will only be unlisted for Patreon early-access for a few hours. Sorry about that! Hope you enjoy the video, let me know what you guys think.

Hey guys! The Steam Engine Simulator Power Generation DLC project is coming to an end and the finishing touches are now being put on before release.

This DLC project has definitely taken up more of my time than I would have liked but I've made the best of the situation and we're in the final stretch before release now. As I've said before, all Patrons will get a Steam key for free, so ex...

Hey everyone, a new video will be releasing tomorrow on my main channel. The user interface library (buttons, text, etc.) that will be used in ES3D is complete and I demonstrate it working within Steam Engine Simulator in this video. Quite a lot of improvements to Engine Simulator technology have been made in the past few months and they'll be demonstrated in ES3D very soon! Hope you guys like ...

2024-01-26 14:29:21 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys, a lot of people have asked me to release videos more frequently on YouTube. While I'd love to do this, videos take a lot of time to make and it just isn't realistic to upload more than once a month, so I've made a second channel with more casual (ie lower effort) videos that won't take too much time away from developing Engine Simulator. Patrons get exclusive access to these videos 1 ...
2024-01-18 14:26:39 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys, I'll be holding the first ever livestream for all Patreon tiers this week. This is a great opportunity to ask questions directly and see how Engine Simulator is progressing.
I know we have members all around the world so it's a bit difficult to choose a time that works for everyone. 11 AM EST Saturday, January 20, 2024 should allow for most people to join. Hope to see you guys t...

The Prototype
The Engine Simulator prototype which most of you have downloaded already, has achieved its goal. The new fluid simulation runs on modern computing hardware and it works well. N...

2-stroke engines have been heavily requested since the Engine Simulator prototype was first revealed last year. Well, they have finally become a reality. Using ES3D's advanced fluid simulation, I've implemented a functional 2-stroke engine simulation in the ES3D demo program. I'm keeping the sound secret for now but I will say this: it works well and the 2-stroke idle is very accurately replica...

2023-10-31 07:48:43 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! I lost a few work days this month but I've put in some overtime to get things back on track. The engine model is approaching completion and the audio generation is getting better. I've made a demo application which demonstrates ES3D's real-time engine editing capabilities. It uses the same scripting interface used in ES2D which many of you will be familiar with. Every time the fil...

One of these situations was life-threatening and required emergency surgery. To help my family with hospital visits, recovery and transportation I've been away from home for the past week and unfortunately couldn't do much work on Engine Simulator.

Hey guys, this video will be released tomorrow at 8 AM EST but you can watch it before the general public. The first tests of ES3D's audio generation are looking promising. In this video I explored some basic audio generation. Once I start adding more detail to the model like camshaft lift profiles, the cylinder combustion model and everything else, I think the audio generation will get much be...
