I now understand why you havent learnt anything in the last 2 years

[tardy rivet]

why...

its going to be 3 next month

[finite crane]

My experience is 95% blender 5% tutorial

[chilly pulsar]

[tardy rivet]

you have to be hacking

I dont understand

did anyone help you?

[tardy rivet]

shcwomp

[finite crane]

I watched like... This... And some tips and tricks shorts
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDeB4tDVCGY

Also have searched plenty of specific solutions to random issues, but like, I havent watched the donut tutorial or anything like that

[nimble vector]

Yippee, I love fuckass bins

[nimble vector]

It sounds like he did some light research and then taught himself the rest through experimentation and practice.

The classic way of learning skills.

[tardy rivet]

I think thats exactly how he did it

I just don't understand how quick and how he doesn't burn out and get distracted like I do

[nimble vector]

His brain might literally be developed different. He might have had some good teachers or was taught good ways to learn things.

[finite crane]

Its partially accumulated knowledge, but uhh... Idk maybe I am just build different in the head

[finite crane]

A few bits of advice i'd give is

1. Set a small goal, like "ill finish this small section"
2. Plan ahead a bit and only start with basics (I mostly do this in my head so you don't see me doing it much)
3. Music and or random chatting helps sometimes
4. If getting burnt out, switch to something else. Either a different part of the model or a different project entirely

[chilly pulsar]

i never thought about physics simulating anims... hmm

[finite crane]

its uhh... Not...

[chilly pulsar]

oh

cooler then

wlel dojne

[finite crane]

I sure wish it was, but its not

[finite crane]

Couldnt figure it out lmao

[nimble vector]

Oof

Hopefully today will be better

[tardy rivet]

oh. my. gosh.

I just found out about alt + v in blender

filling and ripping geometry simultaneously

this could be big

[nimble vector]

My legs are trying to flip geometry turn inside out

[nimble vector]

Beef could use some of this advice, he seems to be kinda down from being caught on multiple things and getting distracted.

[tardy rivet]

I really like the idea of an indoor town interior

[sly delta]

Habitat kinda does that I think, or at least plays with the concept a bit

[tardy rivet]

kind of like this???

[sly delta]

okay nvm Habitat does not do that

[tardy rivet]

Yeah I thought it only did 1-3 houses

[nimble vector]

I have thought of an interior that's like a concrete bunker with large tile sections that are big concrete blocks with houses sitting in a row on either side of a fake road.

[tardy rivet]

Eventually I think I want to design some trap ideas

[chilly pulsar]

@wispy garden

[tardy rivet]

I have one in mind already

[chilly pulsar]

NOOOOO

GRAHHH

[tardy rivet]

Oh is turtles already doing that?

[chilly pulsar]

WORK W ME ON IT

[nimble vector]

Hi tony

[tardy rivet]

on what?

[merry crag]

no Beanie YOU MAKE IT TAKE MY POWER

[chilly pulsar]

no its just for their unfinished level fun interior (which was a comission that never got completed) i suggested a kid city sub area for them

i also have a ton of reference images

[tardy rivet]

aw thats so cool :(

[merry crag]

Hello :)

[chilly pulsar]

i would like to finish the interior for them, since the original person who was comissioned to do it dropped it entirely

sadness

[tardy rivet]

me too

[chilly pulsar]

we all need to unite

[merry crag]

i have it

[chilly pulsar]

liminal house has a pseudo indoor town ish thing

with the backyard tile

and i redid the outdoor tiles on habitat for fumo

so

[nimble vector]

Y E S

[chilly pulsar]

i thinknits i have some experience

BUT...

[nimble vector]

...

[chilly pulsar]

storage complex and supermarket come first

[nimble vector]

...yes

[chilly pulsar]

so...

at some point

id love to save the abandoned interior

level fun is a really good and open topic

i yearn for liminits

more backrooms levels = peak

[nimble vector]

Peak = peam

[chilly pulsar]

but id have to talk with the current owner

and with turtnits more

[nimble vector]

Owner?

[chilly pulsar]

yeah

person who (was) working on it

[plucky sigil]

.......

[nimble vector]

No, it peak

[merry crag]

maybe

[plucky sigil]

Turtnits would cry of happiness, i dont think you have to ask him heheh

[nimble vector]

....yis

[plucky sigil]

And batby already gave the files iirc

[chilly pulsar]

alr then, ill ask the person who was working on it

[chilly pulsar]

what

im talking about level fun

[plucky sigil]

Idr if it was batby or someone else

[merry crag]

I can help with ideas

[chilly pulsar]

batby gave them scoops stuff

[plucky sigil]

Batby was the scoopy remake

Hmm dont remember who level fun was

[slate ledge]

HUSH HUSH HOW DID YOU KNOW

[chilly pulsar]

[merry crag]

use me power to rebuild

[plucky sigil]

Just do collab people

[tardy rivet]

it’s only a matter of time…

[chilly pulsar]

mel im sure we can come to a logical conclusion here that works for us both

cheese keeps saying the c word

[slate ledge]

it's okay, I only kind of barely started since I felt more like modelling things for something else, or coding for something else...

but uhhhh

[plucky sigil]

Best interior dev and uhm melaniemelicious works with wider ship

Collab

[chilly pulsar]

do we... GULP...

collab...

[slate ledge]

c-c-c-c-c-c-c

[plucky sigil]

https://tenor.com/view/excited-ah-ahh-gif-24288323

[merry crag]

aw not me

[chilly pulsar]

SHOOSH

not now...

go back to molding... like a good cheese...

[slate ledge]

BUT LIKE LITERALLY, WE CHOSE BASICALLY THE SAME(ish) ERA/AESTHETIC

[slate ledge]

unless you're way more literally about the reference images looking like a tow town

[chilly pulsar]

2010's kid cities 💔

[plucky sigil]

You both are younger than that

🥀

[merry crag]

only 1 year younger

[nimble vector]

This is more of what I imagined in my head

[tardy rivet]

so we’re all fetuses

[plucky sigil]

Yes

[chilly pulsar]

no bro i was there for the 2010's smh

[plucky sigil]

If im unc yall are still fetus

[chilly pulsar]

i do have outdoor stuff for liminal house planned

[plucky sigil]

Bro doesnt even know what the worst day of 2016 felt like 🥀

[chilly pulsar]

one of them was the bottom right image, funnily

[slate ledge]

but yeah, just generally I'm going for more between a vintage and victorian town aesthetic, with the cobblestone or brick roads, and the fancy street lamps

[nimble vector]

I ain't no fetus, my ass was born a year after.....uh......actually I'll just say I was born in 2002. Sorry.

[chilly pulsar]

2016 was splendid for me bro. since 2020 is been downhill

https://tenor.com/view/tuxedo-cat-tuxedo-cat-kitten-hold-gif-2409456495782744409

[merry crag]

2019 was my year

[plucky sigil]

Tony, yesterday is older than you

[nimble vector]

2016 was trash though 2017-19 was pretty good.

[merry crag]

no I was born yesterday

[plucky sigil]

Im trying to ragebait so they have a common enemy, so we can have collab

Unite them by a common enemy

But mel doesnt even care

Its not working

[nimble vector]

Well it's not going to work if you reveal your hand early dude

[plucky sigil]

They dont know i said that

[wispy garden]

my second fav interior idea I had

[plucky sigil]

Only people i chose can rea dit

[nimble vector]

Also you got to hit them harder than just age insults

[wispy garden]

yall wanna see my fav interior idea

[merry crag]

sure

[plucky sigil]

Bro is lecturing me

Hi normannn

[nimble vector]

Yo, yes

[tardy rivet]

I call it if it’s good

jkjk

[plucky sigil]

Thank you, next

[chilly pulsar]

didnt i tell that idea to you

[wispy garden]

liminal rooftops, jumping between buildings in a city in fake world

[plucky sigil]

No

[wispy garden]

fake skybox

[chilly pulsar]

oh

thaat one

[nimble vector]

Well I have a habit of being manipulative with psychopathic tendencies and both parents went to college for psychology so I know at least a couple things.

[chilly pulsar]

yeah thats diff

[plucky sigil]

Ok :3

[plucky sigil]

Collab

[plucky sigil]

My dream is doing parkour in those things

[merry crag]

yes with me for hope

[plucky sigil]

Mirrors edge type

[wispy garden]

https://giphy.com/gifs/video-games-running-8jZza5l20UFeU

mirros edge moments

[plucky sigil]

Ok

[nimble vector]

The best way to get someone to do something is making it seem reasonable or like it was their idea or choice. Bait them without them knowing there's bait.

[slate ledge]

okay that is a cool interior idea

[nimble vector]

😀

[plucky sigil]

I know hehehe

[wispy garden]

id be really funny to have that interior on a city moon

go inside sky scraper and end up in another city XD

[nimble vector]

Yes

[sly delta]

ball knowledge

[wispy garden]

tbh I havent played it

[plucky sigil]

Told ya

[wispy garden]

Im just aware of it

[plucky sigil]

I hate you

[wispy garden]

I told you I suck at platformers ;asdjkas;ldkas;d

[nimble vector]

I still like the idea

[sly delta]

thats still better than not knowing ball tho

[plucky sigil]

True

But you still havent played the complex yet

😡

[wispy garden]

I wont ever now >:)

[nimble vector]

I have beaten the complex, shockingly unnerving for a game where not much happens. Well made.

I do wish there was at least one monster chase though.

[wispy garden]

I still pray wesley does a castle interior

hes already covered the sewer niche

[nimble vector]

Castle interior would be badass

[wispy garden]

since scoopy remake is in massive limbo

[chilly pulsar]

still gotta play that

[plucky sigil]

SPOIL THEM

KEEP SPOILING THEM

[wispy garden]

(wont say much but I had someone who wanted to work on it but the assets are mixed with batby's other projects rn so he cant send them over and has no time to sort them), (so its effectively cancelled for the time being)

[plucky sigil]

IS NOT LIKE IVE TRIED TO MAKE TURTLE AND BEANIE PLAY IT FOR A YEAR NOW

KEEP SPOILING THEM

Haiiii

[nimble vector]

Well I haven't mentioned specifics yet, I mean if you watched any backrooms videos you know to expect one of 2 or 3 kinds of possible experiences.

Being familiar with the backrooms would be spoilers in of itself.

[plucky sigil]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-kitten-cat-crying-kitten-crying-05starrynight-gif-10141647709992578610

Im so sad

[nimble vector]

Now I'm starting to feel bad

Please play the complex for them

It's really good

[tardy rivet]

what is the complex

horror game?

[plucky sigil]

Kinda yes

Best backrooms game ive played

[nimble vector]

Yes, atmospheric exploration.

[plucky sigil]

And free too

[wispy garden]

Im tooooo buuuuusy rn fr fr no cap

[plucky sigil]

And like 30 mins long

[nimble vector]

I'm not one to knock someone's taste but you are really making me sad right now.

Bruh

[wispy garden]

pvz2 mods are fun

I mean thats why my profile here is from one lol, as an inside joke

[tardy rivet]

man i love pvz

[wispy garden]

I usually find horror games boring so I just didnt wanna play it

[tardy rivet]

I wish gw3 would come out

or any game in that series

[wispy garden]

popcap Vancouver has been shut down for years

they did the shooters

[nimble vector]

Pvz2 can be good, mods are awesome, and I for sure love the first game but cheese is literally dying inside

[tardy rivet]

how did I not know this…

[nimble vector]

Come on guys

[wispy garden]

also modern popcap is a revolving door of ea staff and a small core team

its not making big games anymore

[nimble vector]

Dew et for da cheeeeeese

[wispy garden]

its pretty much a shell of what it once was

[wispy garden]

ill just eat cheese

problem solved

[merry crag]

you eat this cheese @plucky sigil

[wispy garden]

tastle

[nimble vector]

Free, backrooms based, faithful, haunting, and just well made all around for free and a relatively short play. Play the complex today.

[wispy garden]

cheeseyyyeye

[nimble vector]

😀

[wispy garden]

(I should also mention im not even a backrooms fan :O)

[rough flower]

would a bass pro shops count

[nimble vector]

If you are a fan of good atmosphere and unfamiliar unnerving environments I think you'll somewhat enjoy it. Plus again only 30 minutes.

[tardy rivet]

bass pro shop pyramid interior

[rough flower]

i lowkey had that as an idea and then ditched it lmao

[nimble vector]

Complete with moon too

[rough flower]

would be an insane amount of modeling

[nimble vector]

Write it down that could actually be funny and awesome.

[tardy rivet]

1:1 scale earth moon

[nimble vector]

We could cheat with a lot of textures stolen from photos and reference images

[wispy garden]

ok but its fun to torturs chees ehehehehehe

[nimble vector]

Normally yes but......not like this. I'm crazy not evil.

Please?

[wispy garden]

im so evil

hehehe

[rough flower]

i dont think you understand how much shit goes on inside these fucking stores

[nimble vector]

......oh.....my.............ohhh that's going to be rough

[rough flower]

god i love america

[nimble vector]

To hell with america, I'd live underground in the sea if I could.

[wispy garden]

eh

hadal labs is kinda lame

XD

[nimble vector]

Yes but feesh

[wispy garden]

I dont blame tolian for that

bc he was given it like

barely finished

there was like nothing done

like he estimated like

20-30%

[nimble vector]

I'm not sure how tiles for this would even work......

Maybe similar to the mall interior but even then

[rough flower]

i kinda imagined everything between sections like the first third would be like hunting related, and it would be a main path that would always be like a big ass walkways it would have and the branch tiles being the shelves and the walls being randomly modular to have like rocks or aquariums or random bs

i thought about it a lot

[nimble vector]

One thing I know Is that if it was faithfully recreated it would set PC's on FIRE

[plucky sigil]

Its a horror game if you find horror games scary, its an atmospheric and immersive experience if you dont find games scary

[nimble vector]

Honestly it might be better to just make a bass pro pyramid inspired creation so that way some things can just be cut out when needed without taking away from the experience.

[chilly pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-look-side-eye-bombastic-bombastic-side-eye-gif-2838294034054004015

[chilly pulsar]

keep thinking bro

a bass pro interior

would be so god damn peak

i want nature interiors

AUHHHH

please please

turn gunstore into that

pleaaase

[rough flower]

i hate you

didnt i literally run the two concepts i had through you and you chose the normal gunstore over it

wait no that was vodka

gulp

[nimble vector]

It's possible but man it would be a ton of work, probably would have to wait until a bunch of projects are done before it could be attempted just because y'all would probably need a team to make it manageable.

[wispy garden]

wine celler interior

NOW

[nimble vector]

Definitely for the future and not now.

[rough flower]

I ALSO HAD THAT IN MY NOTES FUCK YOU

the new outlast trial location got me feeling things

[wispy garden]

ugh lemme try and pull something not noted down

[wispy garden]

el chapo's tunnel interior

[rough flower]

ok well i dont hvae that

so you win

[plucky sigil]

See how everyone is complaining about things they havent even started

[rough flower]

cheese make cheese weather

that's fucking nuts

[rough flower]

go to your local bass pro shop

[nimble vector]

I am now depressed

[rough flower]

ive been to 3 in my life

theyre worth

trust me

dont even have to buy anything

just go in

[nimble vector]

That's not the insane part, the insane part is the pyramid is multiple levels of just that AND it's the biggest pyramid humanity has ever built.

[glacial nova]

the bass pro shop pyramid

[nimble vector]

Think about that.

[glacial nova]

god bless america

[wispy garden]

ALL HAIL

[glacial nova]

what i would give to work there

[wispy garden]

im fairly sure there is an scp with like this same concept

[nimble vector]

Pfft, corporations wished we would worship them

[glacial nova]

the bragging rights to say i work at the bass pro shop pyramid

[wispy garden]

we worship the structure

not the brand

[nimble vector]

They're pinning for it, they really are but it will never happen.

[nimble vector]

Even that though is a stretch, we find it amazing and impressive. That's about it.

[chilly pulsar]

theres one relatively near me

like

40 minute drive

went in once, dont rember much

[nimble vector]

.......pyramid?

[high compass]

the evil cube

[nimble vector]

Oh

Shop

[high compass]

its the evil cube

[chilly pulsar]

ok aparrently mine has a shark bowling alley

cool

[nimble vector]

.........WHAT????

[wispy garden]

ok yeah it did remind me of SCP-1534

basically a supermarket cult

[nimble vector]

I beg your finest pardon????

[wispy garden]

so your average ikea

XD

taking "were family"

very seriously

everyone loved manager

this is him here

his name is jerry

[nimble vector]

No seriously what??

[chilly pulsar]

bowling alley where a shark spits bowling balls at you

https://tenor.com/view/cat-fat-orange-gif-6021465043126696100

what more can i say

[nimble vector]

..........in a bass pro shop......capitalism is weird man

[wispy garden]

interior now, add it to the 8237804239 ones you have on ice

[nimble vector]

.....uh what about no? I think no is a reasonable option.

[wispy garden]

im just teasing the beanster

[nimble vector]

I'm going to tease your nerves with fungus

Almost forgot, any news on mall development?

[wispy garden]

I ate it

[tardy rivet]

No i’ve just been watching shorts on blender

trying to expand my knowledge

and also school

[nimble vector]

Oh well, carry on.

[nimble vector]

Yeah.....I forget......I hope that's going well.

[tardy rivet]

It’s going pretty good actually, my grades are (relatively) higher but it’s getting to that point in the year where I’m getting burnt out of school

I can’t wait til summer

except I forgot that I have a job now…

idk how that’s going to work out with development

[nimble vector]

Work, rest, then do some development at night.

That's what I would do.

[tardy rivet]

it’s on boats and being near the ocean and beach gets me super tired

especially when sunburnt :/

but right now because it’s winter i’m pale as a ghost

[nimble vector]

I'm whiter than sour cream man, I touch the sun I start smoking immediately. So many blisters.......man.

[chilly pulsar]

then slather yourself in sour cream

same thing as sun cream, really

[nimble vector]

I will bite you in the eyes

[chilly pulsar]

they are black holes your teeth will collapse

[nimble vector]

My entire body just gets sucked into it

[tardy rivet]

I had the craziest creative spark ever just by being bored in chemistry

THREE HAZARD IDEAS

AND AN ENEMY

whatttt

[chilly pulsar]

lets combine our ideas twin i have two trap ideas

[tardy rivet]

NO WAIT

[chilly pulsar]

and both are modeled

[tardy rivet]

2 ENEMIES

[tardy rivet]

!!!!

[chilly pulsar]

crazy twin

[tardy rivet]

well one of mine is a mine idea

anti-cruiser mines

[chilly pulsar]

well technically i have 3 traps already

the mine variants

groosh

[tardy rivet]

higher weight threshold than a normal mine so it can’t be triggered by a single player

it can be by vehicles and other heavy stufs

[chilly pulsar]

i want at least 3 unique traps before i consider starting a hazard mod (excluding the land mines ofc)

[tardy rivet]

I have a few

2, but one also kind of correlates with an enemy

[nimble vector]

With your powers combined you summon captain pla- oh wait wrong script.....
(Sounds of rustling papers)
you summon project progress creep.

[proper wyvern]

mines don't trigger based on weight, it's based on tag comparison

[tardy rivet]

thats just the ingame explanation

[proper wyvern]

ah

you could probably detect when the wheelcollider enters the mine

[tardy rivet]

like obviously behind code it'll only be activated by cruisers and maybe some other stuff

[proper wyvern]

although i know xi had issues with their beartraps not working to detecting wheels

-# unitys wheelcolliders are garbage

landmines are coded to apply force to a vehicle, but they never explicitly call the method to destroy the vehicle

so you'd also need to code that in :p

[proper wyvern]

any vehicle not just cruisers :3

well, the hauler maybe not, i'm giving it a custom wheelcollider setup that isn't unities

if you went the wheelcollider detection route

[nimble vector]

It may be necessary to make a workaround like your own colliders, I've been told how much of a nightmare it can be.

[nimble vector]

Ah

[proper wyvern]

lunar was talking about landmines that trigger when something heavy (like a vehicle) enters them

i was saying you could detect when the wheelcollider enters/presses on it, but i heard its a bit finnicky whether it even detects it

and if a vehicle uses a custom wheel script then you'll need to come up with something else

[finite crane]

Lethalcart real

[tardy rivet]

what’s up with the front?

It looks like a huge sniffer

[finite crane]

Mirror mode shenanigans I was too lay to fix

Also gave these guys LODs

scrunch

[chilly pulsar]

why is he naked

[finite crane]

I was gonna say thats not naked, but you're a cat, so of course it would be

[chilly pulsar]

he has no gear on

it makes him look naked

Hello gary

[tardy rivet]

ok Im going to start working on mall again

BUT

im also going to start working on catacombs again

I'll switch between the two when I have burnout

as well as my moons

SO

Idk if mall will be included in the interior pack since someone (i forgor who) said that it shouldn't and I also forgor why

Catacombs will be a mostly solo project so it will be included as the first definite one. I think it will help me develop my modeling skills since I feel limited to only doing store tiles now for the mall.

The moons, will obviously be in their own moon pack with seperate mods so people don't hurt me

Ok now

goodbye

I need to start concepting catacombs

since its being started from scratch

okay soooo

catacombs

they contain a lot of death and bodies and all of that

as well as religious stuff

the body stuff is fine since theres literal scrap in vanilla that depicts dead body parts

but the religious stuff im uncertain

[tardy rivet]

whattt

[nimble vector]

Honestly just switch much earlier than that, anytime you're frustrated or tired. Solid strategy honestly, that's actually a thing recommended by therapists you know.

[tardy rivet]

Yeah thats what I meant, but burnt out is just an easier term

[nimble vector]

You doing ok?

[tardy rivet]

Yeah, I've just been researching catacombs today, I still can't decide if I should add religious elements to it, so it stays faithful to the ones in real life, or if I should remove them so I don't risk the community not liking it

[nimble vector]

You could make vague almost alien looking religious symbols or cultural artifacts so it's not connected to a real thing while still being faithful in spirit.

Just make up stuff and run with it

Maybe even put in some details inspired by the things you're researching.

[tardy rivet]

ooo yes

I could make like an alien cult that has nothing to do with on-earth religions

so no one can get offended

(people then proceed to start following the fictional religion and take me as their leader)

[nimble vector]

Now you're cooking with composition-h6

I look forward to what comes next.

[tardy rivet]

👁️

its looking at you, and it wants you to look at it

its kind of... mesmerizing (wink wink)

[nimble vector]

I like where this is going

I'm curious how the texturing is going to look especially like what kind of stone is going to be used for the pillar.

More like this.

[tardy rivet]

This is actually a trap

which I realized would go very well with the catacombs

Not a trap that actually damages you, just is a big inconvenience

periodically activates and when it’s not obstructed by any walls or anything, so even if you’re looking away from it, it forces you to look at it and than after you’re directly looking at it for a while you start to move towards it

[nimble vector]

That's actually amazing

Also kinda original since I don't think there are any traps in LC that mess with your camera like that in a way that controls you and makes you lock into it.

[tardy rivet]

i think i’ve seen concepts

but never really came to fruition

it also will be heavily configurable

like the time taken to activate, duration of effect, and the timing between the stages of being drawn to it

and cooldown

[chilly pulsar]

should slowly turn the camera if ur in line of sight

well

[tardy rivet]

thats the point

[chilly pulsar]

thats what u said

but

idk the speed

you implied

[tardy rivet]

its going to be slower, not a snap

[chilly pulsar]

i really want to make a monster where its focused on camo and the one of the ways to know its there is that you camera just barely drifts in its direction

borderline unnoticeable

that and other tells

also it would only be visible while its moving

and would have a cool shader effect… like.. metil geer..

[tight lily]

Insomnia demon from VotV

[tardy rivet]

I feel VotV drags out so long

I want to see the spooky monsters

[nimble vector]

I want to eat da spooky monsters

[tight lily]

😋

[plucky sigil]

0 attention span

[tardy rivet]

nooo

it takes so long

[finite crane]

Good thing this has been here the whole time and I didn't know about it.
I've been jumping between gimp and a browser this whole time to make normals...

[finite crane]

Also, I think I cooked a little too hard on this one. This doesnt really even feel lethal company anymore

[chilly pulsar]

its peaknit

its just the high quality label textures, thats all

also could i use some of your props for supermarket cus theres a ton of overlap with mall and market… gulp

likewise i can share some of mine w u guys

when i get my pc back…

[finite crane]

How big is this damn supermarket gonna be bruh

https://tenor.com/view/megamind-megamind-meme-no-bitches-bitches-confused-gif-25108008

[chilly pulsar]

this is with the propsets removed

[merry crag]

backrooms supermarket

[chilly pulsar]

I also gotta make the signs larger

[chilly pulsar]

the propsets are ready, I optimized them

and then

pc gone

😔

[finite crane]

Thats actually pretty cool

Not entirely sure what assets weäd share though, besides like random office supplies

[chilly pulsar]

uhh

do you not have food stores in mall

what about cafeteria stuffnits

[finite crane]

Well, theres the one lunar was working on

But from me not a ton that would fit in a supermarket

[chilly pulsar]

bleeh

[finite crane]

goog

[chilly pulsar]

fuck i gotta model shopping carts

[finite crane]

Ohhh crap thats a good point, I gotta make shopping carts

[chilly pulsar]

also these are edited sketchfab models i did not make them i only optimized and rigged them

[finite crane]

Hold on, I gotchu

[chilly pulsar]

i could make them

im just

lazy

[finite crane]

yeah

[chilly pulsar]

They looked exactly how i wanted them to be anyways

i just retextured and fixed them

[chilly pulsar]

The only thing i was gonna ask for was a shopping cart so thank you for reading my mindnits

well

i coulda made it tmr but

ill take it anyways

i need to make other stuffs… ill think of what to model

fruit stands

[finite crane]

I do wonder how zeekers' materials will work with it. The catwalk material isnt the greatest in terms of quality

[chilly pulsar]

you could do uhhh

Very simplified 4 sided bezier curve

and then lods

i can make the LODS if you want

[hardy wedge]

i can cheer on

[finite crane]

thats... Not what I meant but ok

[chilly pulsar]

i can spray water at you

[chilly pulsar]

i know

the catwalk texture

which would be the most optimized solution

is meh

so im suggesting a simple way of actually modeling it out

[finite crane]

I am NOT individually modelling every metal bit

Performance hell

[hardy wedge]

you make it like catwalk is made

material, transparent plane

[finite crane]

No yeah thats the plan. Might have to make my own material though

[hardy wedge]

blenderkit deffo has stuff already

[finite crane]

Whole plugins just doesnt work for me

[hardy wedge]

i had the bug you had before and managed to fix it

[white shard]

Make sure you credit them then

[finite crane]

Which means they are going to stick out like mad

[white shard]

Not necessarily

Sketchfab models aren't bad by any means

[finite crane]

I mean in terms of style

[white shard]

Ehhh most of the styling comes from how someone textures and the lethal company shaders effect on those textures, there's enough assets in sketchfab

[hardy wedge]

its fairly easy to stay in style with lethal

[white shard]

Yeah

Lethal company is a fairly mid poly game

[finite crane]

Id argue otherwise, but whatever. Its mostly the textures I guess

[white shard]

Most assets are likely in that range

[hardy wedge]

and you can just crunch those textures :p

[chilly pulsar]

not if you do it right

[chilly pulsar]

yes i have all the links saved

[chilly pulsar]

yummy replacing textures with vanilla and using point filter

[finite crane]

its still gonna be like, a few thousand tris even if the gaps between rods are somewhat large

[chilly pulsar]

naurrr…

but do whatever u want

[hardy wedge]

cheesecake

i want to do cheesecake

[finite crane]

ehh

Extra 600 tris for something that could be 5 planes

[merry crag]

Ehhh wtf is thissss

[finite crane]

And this is with just one level of subdiv on the pipes, so theyre squares

[merry crag]

They are not even connected

[finite crane]

Its just a mockup

[tight lily]

Can I sit in it

[hardy wedge]

no.

[tight lily]

[hardy wedge]

[white shard]

Good, wonderful

[chilly pulsar]

show me the topologigly

are the bars subdivided at all?

[finite crane]

nope

Also i erased that version

[hardy wedge]

a mockups?

[hardy wedge]

no reason

[chilly pulsar]

this is good

a mix of both

splendiferous squinch

[hardy wedge]

sick

[finite crane]

I think this is about right

[hardy wedge]

that is tiny

[finite crane]

is it really?

[hardy wedge]

hmm

I'd make it a bit bigger

[white shard]

dude shopping carts are huge

[tardy rivet]

id widen it a bit

what is it for anyway?

[hardy wedge]

for shopping

i mean in small spar or something its good

but you need the big ones

[hardy wedge]

show me another angle

[chilly pulsar]

better, but i think the front should be wider

not totally rectangular

but

Decently wider

the bottom part can stay as is

just the basked should be more uniform

thats how i normally see shoppling carts

otherwise its peak

[finite crane]

idk, its decently accurate as is I think

I actually think it should be a little shorter

[chilly pulsar]

I tend to see them like this

[finite crane]

Yeah well theres different types so it could literally be any shape

Circular if I really wanted to do that

[chilly pulsar]

top is rectangular and bigger, bottom is more tapered like u have

oh yeah yours should be a tiny bit deeper

it feels like the basket is short

if i look at the photo for referenc

[hardy wedge]

oh yeah i forgor we are in 1920

mb

its good

[chilly pulsar]

well

we arent

[hardy wedge]

mall is

[finite crane]

^^ yeah

[chilly pulsar]

Oh

isnt that before sigurd?

[finite crane]

Lore wise the mall is like 50-70's

[chilly pulsar]

oh

[finite crane]

Sigurd was in the 80s I think yeah

[chilly pulsar]

wait would you let me make slight edits to it for supermarket

since supermarket is more modern

keep yours as is, it fits for your theme

[merry crag]

thanks for the free asset [what name should I put for the asset?]

[merry crag]

[should I put your thunderstore name or discord?]

[finite crane]

You can use it, I guess, but it was meant specifically for beanie.

Probably shouldnt assume you can take it next time

[finite crane]

@tardy rivet Did you still wanna work on the other tiles?
If not you can pass them to me and I can finish them up

[tardy rivet]

yeah I will this week

[nimble vector]

...huh-wha-wassat????

[solar ice]

[nimble vector]

The height seems about right proportionally, just needs a tapper if you want the modern look anyway.

Honestly it looks good as is. I would work on the wheels more personally.

[finite crane]

I uhh... Might have tiled an image on the wrong axis

[nimble vector]

..............I don't understand how your computer isn't damaged or didn't crash outright.

Holy fuck

I have now decided that lunar's bizzaro mirror version is named sunny.

[tardy rivet]

[tardy rivet]

I will put one on your house and turn you into dust

melted cheese

but you on some bread and turn you into a grilled cheese

[plucky sigil]

in toast

[tardy rivet]

yes

@icy harbor

you're getting solar flare'd too

by my alter ego mr Sol R Flare

[nimble vector]

What have I done

What the hell did I create.

[icy harbor]

Yeah thats cool but im not getting solar flare'd because grilled cheese != toast

[nimble vector]

Mario: remember all toasters toast toast

[icy harbor]

You don’t make grilled cheese in a toaster

Therefore the bread isnt toast

[turbid patrol]

You will not harm cheese

[nimble vector]

Correct, we shall consume him instead 😀

[turbid patrol]

Noo thats my friend

[chilly pulsar]

hrrrm

[nimble vector]

Yeah their computer should've pulled a Manhattan project by now

[chilly pulsar]

somehow i didnt see this but peak

Is making small edits to it fine?

[finite crane]

Yeah go ahead

[chilly pulsar]

alr

i cant even use it rn so ill just cry until i can work on supermarket

boo hoo

heeugggghhu ueeeeeeeeeg

ueeeeeeh… WAEEEEH

[icy harbor]

There’s the debate about grilled cheese but we’re forgetting jacket potatoes

[turbid patrol]

Thats fine

[icy harbor]

King Potato I’m going to cut you partially in half exposing most of your insides before putting you in the oven, then I’ll burn and melt TheCheeseXD and pile your insides with melted cheese

Tastes good too

They serve it in schools

[turbid patrol]

Leave cheese alone then deal

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1058959954721128618/1270528524926582878/zipp.gif

Else i sick this guy on you

[turbid patrol]

Do we have a deal?

[icy harbor]

Not leaving cheese alone until he makes CheeseMoons

@plucky sigil make it real

and they tasted good

*finish the mall

https://tenor.com/view/sussa-gif-5432297967573209335

[tardy rivet]

why are you here instantly

[midnight forge]

I get called to projects that take a while

[tardy rivet]

no you don't

[midnight forge]

SAP

https://tenor.com/view/dog-scroll-crying-depression-doomscrolling-gif-4138822033792608878

[tardy rivet]

not even abandoned btw

[midnight forge]

AbandonedProjects

• Dev gave up

SemiAbandonedProjects

• Dev works on it when he feels like it

[tardy rivet]

I guesssss

[midnight forge]

Get a early alpha out soon

[tardy rivet]

I actually could do that

[midnight forge]

https://tenor.com/view/sad-gif-2108856423160912540

[tardy rivet]

but jacu would need to send the rest of the finished tiles because he says that I shouldn't add colliders yet

I could release with what tiles we have currently

[midnight forge]

@finite crane

[tardy rivet]

why are we disturbing him

[merry crag]

Thunderstore needs the bundle

[midnight forge]

Because you need the tiles

[finite crane]

uhh yeah about that

I did, and sickboy started putting all the legos together

[midnight forge]

?

[finite crane]

I probably shoulda started exporting them sooner, thats mb, but like I got no clue how long it woulda taken you to put it together

[tardy rivet]

So what now

[finite crane]

uhh, idk

[midnight forge]

Upload!

https://tenor.com/view/happy-guy-dancing-black-guy-gif-4412053438609639935

[finite crane]

I guess you could work on the unique mechanics since those are independent of building the dungeon itself

[tardy rivet]

oof

coding

[finite crane]

vending machine, garbage cans, skyligghts

[tardy rivet]

what about the skylights?

a day cycle?

[finite crane]

Yeah like, setting up the fake skylight like in beanies house interior

and if possible color change during the day

[tardy rivet]

@chilly pulsar tell me the secrets

[tardy rivet]

can you guys talk about the mall work in the gc already created please?

I dont like being left in the dark here

[finite crane]

yeah idk weve just kinda been passing little comments to each other via DM and its kept turning into discussion

[chilly pulsar]

you cant just make a thread and then not release a single mod for over a year 💔

[tardy rivet]

i do have a break coming starting thursday

[tardy rivet]

Lunars suits bro

I feel like if 10 more productive hours were put in to it then it would be ready for alpha release.

[tardy rivet]

Total amount of restarts

First restart: May 2024

Second restart: August 2025

Third restart: October 2025

[tardy rivet]

maybe

[midnight forge]

Why are you restarting

[tardy rivet]

may was when I quit catacombs

august was when I decided to come back to work on mall

[chilly pulsar]

and NOTHING to show!!!

[tardy rivet]

and october was when I lost the entire mall because windows 11

[tardy rivet]

true

[midnight forge]

Just lock in atp

[tardy rivet]

I have cool ideas

terrible execution

Poke me, we can literally just VC here and there and work on modelling for mall

[finite crane]

or whatever else really

[tardy rivet]

Me too

But yeah we could vc soon

[slate ledge]

but what if, what if, you didn't communicate at all

[rough flower]

Who’s assembling it in Unity

Cus like I lowkey haven’t kept up with development and last I remember it was sickboy and he immediately ditched it

[chilly pulsar]

i think stinkboy is still doing it

[tardy rivet]

its me and sickboy

[nimble vector]

Yippee

[rough flower]

Call me shocked

[hardy wedge]

I never ditched it what are you even on about? Before you joined vc yesterday I was working on it and showed some issues I have with it to Wesley

lunar hasnt released moons OR interiors

they LIE

i never said that I have silly

Well maybe you should

[tardy rivet]

perhaps

[plucky sigil]

wait how do you have the modder role then

[tardy rivet]

finesse

i released a suit mod

[midnight forge]

Just release the interior

[nimble vector]

It's far from a test run let alone a v1

I'm not even sure it can run yet.

[tardy rivet]

no it can run

i’ve tested in game before but it’s unplayable

I have a few more things to do but before I do anything else with the interior I’m going to need to combine my project with his

well i don’t need to but id rather get that out the way

Then I just need to fix some generation things, set spawns up, main entrance, fire exits, and nav mesh maybe

but i’m waiting for v80 to be ready for mods because it isn’t yet i believe

[midnight forge]

https://tenor.com/view/bucktooth-emoji-patrick-star-smiling-emoji-bucktooth-smiling-buck-tooth-emoji-gif-8956359514105633234

Welcome to development, testing, theorizing, and lots of waiting.

Makes me feel like a chem tech assistant.

[tardy rivet]

isn’t even my fault this time

v80 broke LLL and idk if it’s fixed yet

when it is i’ll hopefully get an alpha out in the next two weeks

[merry crag]

It is

They have updated it

[nimble vector]

WOOOOOO

[midnight forge]

They updated and you can literally just do the normal version, v80 is in beta
