has anyone messed around with custom render engines in blender? following https://docs.blender.org/api/current/bpy.types.RenderEngine.html i have a basic thing working, but i cannot get GPU drawing like the examples in https://docs.blender.org/api/current/gpu.html to work in the view_draw method...

the GPU examples work for me, but only when i use bpy.types.SpaceView3D.draw_handler_add. when i try and move that logic into my render engine's view_draw method i don't see anything.

A friend in Germany just sent this to me. This is how gaming journalists took a #screenshot, back in the day.

Enough of fooling around.. Time to get serious about lights and shadows, and to build some scenes! Here are some repeating cylinders, borrowed more or less directly from Shadertoy :) The two images differ in the amount of Simplex noise mixed into the hatching vector field.
