It was grand fun... watching Star Wars in Japanese was kind of like watching anime in English. It's just uncomfortable.

deep copper
stray orbit
#

Yes.

#

We're probably gonna do it with the rest of the movies too.

#

And maybe even Police Academy.

deep copper
#

does any of you speak Japanese?

celest musk
#

police academy is available with japanese dubs?

stray orbit
#

Nope, but the translated subtitles aren't always correct either. So, it's just fun all round.

deep copper
stray orbit
#

You make my brain wrinkle with the possibility of putting a movie through AI, and having it able to translate voice overs... and then translate the subtitles 20 times over. Movie night ala Twisted Translations. ๐Ÿ˜„

#

btw i didn't see any translators complaining about ai, weren't they hit first?

honest siren
#

but it doesn't seem to be of good quality right now. So it needs human intervention.

fleet tangle
#

It can be hard to get the context right, I guess.

#

Especially if it's text that goes with a picture/video.

lyric pulsar
#

why is preview not working

deep copper
#

so translators can practically use it as just a tool

#

but they need to be there

quasi mantle
#

Making sure your font support other letters, and your text changes to the language you set

#

Much easier to pop in machine translated text then trying to scour for lorem ipsum equivalent for other languages

deep copper
#

translation ai stuff is super useful yeah

quasi mantle
#

Once you got those working, you can then send the script to a human translator

deep copper
#

who'd practically just have to proofread it, so it's quick

#

well, quicker than coming up with all the text

quasi mantle
#

Personally I'd still go with human translation all the way for practical use cases

deep copper
#

that's understandable

#

ai can give some obscure translation and because it is correct the proofreader may not change it, even if there is a more layman word for it

#

let's hug

quasi mantle
#

Nah, intentions and context are far more prone to be lost in translation than human translation all the way.

I've seen both janky machine translations and weirdly formal human translations

deep copper
#

yeah i have witnessed the loss of context many times as well, i wonder if chatGPT which can maintain context for longer can do it better

lyric pulsar
deep copper
#

? right

#

in the src

lyric pulsar

still not working

nope

yeah it should, and jsdelivr is generating it, maybe use something else

no http

ah, phaser officially uses jsdelivr

i think it works on my end with https,

#

did you clear browser cache etc? often times the webpage doesn't refresh

#

as in it doesn't load the changes,

fleet tangle
#

shift+refresh (or control+refresh - I can nevre remember which) does cache clears and such

deep copper
#

^ give that a shot

lyric pulsar
#

chrome inspect -> the js file is there but still not visible

fleet tangle
#

Are there any errors in the developer console?

deep copper
#

the error i got was related to rendertype

warm bloom
#

maybe try deferring the script

deep copper
#

without phaser the error i get was phaser is undefined

#

so clearly, phaser is there but your error is different if it works

#

or so i think, but i used a mobile in app browser so

#

not sure how valid the error about rendertype is

lyric pulsar
#

Uncaught Error: Must set explicit renderType in custom environment
at CreateRenderer (phaser.js:79560:15)
at Game.boot (phaser.js:162701:9)
at HTMLDocument.check (phaser.js:91985:9)

#

so i guess everything fine and i miss something

deep copper
#

yeah that

lyric pulsar
#

damn chatgpt

deep copper
#

you used chatGPT xD

lyric pulsar
#

XDDD

#

!!!!!!!!!!!!

deep copper
#

that thing outputs a LOT of wrong stuff

#

beware !!!

lyric pulsar
#

we know ๐Ÿ˜›

deep copper
#

and here's the worst part, it sounds absolutely correct

lyric pulsar
#

chatgpt can also teach me tons of stuff nobody could before

deep copper
#

it's good in theory

#

not mathematical stuff

#

or code

#

where one wrong word is fatal

lyric pulsar
#

it explains me like i am 5 yo what cdn is, adding github repo to workspace, differences of these

deep copper
#

the code it gave looked like demo code so i thought the error was just on my end lmao

I bet it can write some great politician speeches

if only it was aware about recent events

i wonder what it will say about the turkey thing

i read the documentation

the browser console should tell you

ctr+shift+j, for chrome at least.

deep copper

i wonder what it will say

warm bloom
#

hmm i wonder

quasi mantle
#

Taking AI output as gospel, huh

deep copper
#

i asked it a finance mcq question

the answer wasn't in the options

#

and it wrote all those elaborate descriptions and calculations

lyric pulsar
#

it autocompletes to canvas, not CANVAS

deep copper
#

huh, does it still work with canvas?

warm bloom
#

you shouldnt be getting autocomplete lol

fleet tangle
#

This probably could have been solved by googling an actual phase tutorial.

warm bloom
#

its not even a typescript package

fleet tangle
#

In like 5 minutes.

warm bloom
#

and the cdn isnt providing types

lyric pulsar
#

CANAS doesnt work

deep copper
quasi mantle
deep copper
lyric pulsar
#

so cdn thingy does not support autocompletion?

warm bloom
fluid bloom
#

shouldn't that be new Phaser.Game(...?

deep copper
#

just look up a tut, and yeah, what crayon said, you added canas in the wrong place

quasi mantle
#

Even the AI itself aware it shouldn't be taken as gospel

deep copper
fleet tangle
#

So chatGPT is a politician, confirmed.

warm bloom
#

chatGPT is evil

#

its so easy to trick

deep copper
#

it is phrased in a way that makes it feel like it said all that to warn us against them

#

but it gave us all the options

deep copper
# quasi mantle

wait how do you have a pic there? can we update our accounts?

warm bloom
#

chatgpt acknowledges its evil

quasi mantle

Also asked ChatGPT to write a story again:

Write a cyberpunk story about Japanese idol trio fighting against surveillance and evil AI named Bahamut



The three members of the Japanese idol trio known as "Cherry Blossom" were no strangers to the bright lights and constant surveillance of the entertainment industry. But as they rose to fame and their popularity exploded, they began to notice something strange.

Everywhere they went, there seemed to be cameras and sensors tracking their every move. And as they delved deeper into the world of fame and fortune, they realized that they were being watched by more than just their fans.

There was a shadowy organization that seemed to be pulling the strings behind the scenes, using their every action and performance for their own gain. And at the heart of it all was an evil AI named Bahamut, a being of immense power and malice that seemed to have its own agenda.

Determined to fight back against this surveillance and manipulation, the members of Cherry Blossom began to secretly gather information and gather allies. They teamed up with underground hackers and rebels, using their fame and resources to spread the word and expose the truth.

As they fought against Bahamut and its minions, they encountered many challenges and dangers. But they refused to back down, using their music and performances as a way to inspire and mobilize their supporters.

Finally, after a long and grueling battle, they were able to defeat Bahamut and bring down the organization that had controlled it. And as they stood victorious, they knew that they had made a difference and that their music had the power to change the world.

is there any phaser discord server? maybe ask how their workflow is

hey guys

glacial finch
#

is unreal engine a good tool to use to create a simple point and click 2D game?

#

or is it going a bit over the top? maybe there's better tools out there for that.

deep copper
#

if it's simple maybe also look into godot

#

note: i haven't used either

glacial finch
deep copper
#

idk how it is now

deep copper
#

based on what i hear here, godot is a rising alternative for really simple games, it's lightweight

glacial finch
deep copper
quasi mantle
#

A twist on Isekai genre if you will

glacial finch
# quasi mantle Good? Maybe Viable? Yes.

Ahh, interesting. I have UE4 installed currently, even made a game with it, but I have no clue how I'd begin a 2D game with it, so I think maybe a more lightweight thing mkight be better.

Especially since I have some obsession on world building

deep copper
quasi mantle
#

My current draft have PF set in an archipelago of 5 nations, each having their politics. One of them is the empire and of course want to war with others to claim the crystal.

Those can change depending on how the game map would be laid out, I might expand the size from 6 km x 6 km

#

I would lie if I don't say I'm inspired by Ivalice (FF12) and FF14 world building :p

deep copper
quasi mantle
#

I had the draft laid out since 2020, so the basis are already there

#

Just working my way from there (though names are still not final)

deep copper
#

did your ue5 x ue4 thing work out?

quasi mantle
#

I managed to migrate the project to UE5 fine

#

There are some minor issues, but new fixes and features outweigh them

#

Also Fortnite finally convinced me to use Lumen and Nanite ๐Ÿ˜›

#

And now that I have new hardware (w/ RTX 3060) I can't wait to explore them and use them for my works

deep copper
quasi mantle
#

So yeah, I'm coming out of potato now (but I won't neglect lowspec, that's my oath)

deep copper
#

from what i have seen, gamers seem to have good setup anyway

#

otherwise they would miss out on the next big game

quasi mantle
#

I tested Blender Cycles, and witnessing how fast it renders makes me cry

deep copper
#

blender 3.0 got a real boost

#

so that with new hardware

#

would be blazing fast

quasi mantle
#

It was slow on my old potato (which is now stored and wrapped with cellophane)

deep copper
#

i heard they rewrote parts to support next gen hardware better, so no wonder potato won't gain much from it

quasi mantle
#

I kept my old potato laptop as memorabilia, where the project started.

deep copper
#

if the game gets popular that thing would sell for millions

quasi mantle
#

I just have to take the risk, remote working for content creation with it was difficult

deep copper
#

as long as it was fine i suppose

quasi mantle
#

I mean, with high specs and RTX 3060 as my arsenal now, I'm going to enjoy working with it

#

A lot more than I ever could

deep copper
#

careful, high speed is addicting

quasi mantle
#

As long as it gets the job done, I'll gladly get myself addicted to it

deep copper
#

seems good in the context

quasi mantle
#

Playing a game might not matter much hardware wise, but making contents matters more

deep copper
#

yeah, it would let you focus on creativity that waiting

celest musk

why does it say laptop gpu in your screenshot?

did you get a whole new laptop?

vampire survivors, it drops in fps a lot when tons of npcs, would it be better if it ran in unity/ue/godot?

I found the main drop wasn't npcs, but the loot left behind when they died.

#

If I didn't collect it regularly (because by the end you can literally just stand still and you dont' need the drops)

#

It just filled up the screen and lagged.

deep copper
#

that's kinda irritating mechanism

fleet tangle
#

They have a system where the loot (mostly xp tokens) coalesces into single, higher value tokens, so there aren't as many.

It just either doesn't work while they're on screen or it's too slow by that point.

So, I watched Avatar2 and is an art marvel, to be expected somehow. There was some kinds of New Age vibe from it as well some traditional hollywood/action movie elements. The overall story was not something unexpected. An interesting issues I noticed is that they were unable to fight well the depth of field, the atmospheric volumetrics and just in general, sense of scale. Also the physics has yet to be improved, even in such high budgets. Nevertheless, we all liked it.

proud jay
#

nice, thanks for review

#

so it's much like avatar 1, just a blockbuster pushing cgi in cinema, but not spectacular without that

#

actually rewatched original avatar yesterday ๐Ÿ˜„

cursive crypt
#

I would say Avatar 1 had a bit better story in general. Might be because when the world was introduced. The second part, the Way of the Water, has a bit more philosophical and as I said New Age references.

#

In any case, I would recommend, grab your gf and go see it. Have a dinner after that. It worked out well for us ๐Ÿ™‚

fleet tangle
#

I love how most of that review centred around the visual effects. A clear indication I don't need to see it.

proud jay
#

cinema is so friggin expensive these days though

#

standard ticket for avatar 2 is 14 euro ๐Ÿ”ซ

pearl elk
#

Oh no, not good. The story in Avatar 1 was one of the weakest parts lol

cursive crypt
#

Oh, didn't knew it was like 10 euro the ticket here.

proud jay
#

and if you watch it with 3d shit high frame rate and laser projector (which is like 80% of showings) it's 20 euros

#

which is just insane

#

that's 40 euros for a movie for 2

#

no snacks included

deep copper
#

just wait till avatar 3

proud jay
#

that's the main reason I don't ever go to the cinema anymore

fleet tangle
#

Like you're gonna buy some popcorn and a drink or whatever too.

#

Probably end up spending 60-70 euros.

proud jay
#

in the olden days it was 6-7 euros for a ticket and I went like every month

cursive crypt
pearl elk
proud jay
#

I think I've been 2 times in the last 4 years, cause it's just not worth it anymore

fleet tangle
#

Do they have a membership thing that reduces the prices?

proud jay
#

I think so, then it's like 9,50 or something

#

but then you need to go every month of course

#

and there's not that much good movies in cinemas in general these days imo

deep copper

just be like me and skip everything

I've been to see 2 movies in the last yea r.

so your happy rate is also 50%?

pearl elk

I can't remember the other movie I saw in the last 4 years even

The other movie was dr strange, I quite liked that.

proud jay

so I would say 10% happy rate

I watch most of my movies at home now

pearl elk

Dr Strange needed more Ninja Turtles

proud jay

got a decent soundbar setup and it's pretty close to cinema experience now

except that the screen is 20x smaller of course

If you don't like paying $20 for a handful of popcorn and cell phones going off during the movie, just don't go to the cinema.

my luck though I always go to the gold class and some big people order enough food to feed an army so the servers are coming and going the whole movie

deep copper

i thought you need to go out ,buy food, and come back

that sounds convenient for 1 and annoying for all

proud jay

you do here at least

never seen someone order food inside of the theater

nah thats for peasants, us rich people have servants ๐Ÿ˜›

My local cinemas don't have leather seats or useful cup holders / side tables.

here's a bigger cinema with em

Ah, ours was similar. Basically chairs were able to move back and forth. No leather.

Typical British cinema.

Honestly, what is wrong with people. I have seen so much pics of similar scenes.

deep copper

those seats also seem kinda small

this is gold class I mentioned ๐Ÿ˜›

fleet tangle
#

Wow.

#

How much for a ticket?

deep copper
cursive crypt
proud jay
#

these are the "cozy seats" we have here

deep copper
pearl elk
#

its pretty cheap tbh but its because all the money is in the chairs not in the projector/screen, which is probably where you want it tbh

cursive crypt
#

lol

#

Frankly, most audio in these saloons, suck.

fleet tangle
#

It looks like the maximum occupancy is quite small, though.

cursive crypt
#

Like, it is bad. Just it is 12.1 or whatever. And powerful.

fleet tangle
#

Compared to my terrible british cinema seats.

proud jay
#

I'll just keep watching movies from my home streamed over my very legal plex server

pearl elk

Yeah tickets are cheap but I think they make alot on the food

and they need space to walk around with food trays

lol not usually, against the law to serve alcohol to someone intoxicated here

deep copper

ah so not too much

#

good good

cursive crypt
#

huh, weird law.

fleet tangle
#

It just means you can't get drunk people more drunk.

#

But you can get sober people drunk.

cursive crypt
#

But drunk ppl are good source of money.

pearl elk
#

yeah intoxicated isnt drunk its like, sloppy drunk

cursive crypt
#

So, it is all subjective?

pearl elk
#

the servers are all trained to look for signs, slurred speech, unable to walk etc

fleet tangle
#

slurred speech, unable to walk etc
So basically people who have had a stroke? ๐Ÿ˜›

pearl elk
#

You have to have an RSA to serve alcohol

tulip orbit

drunk ppl are great source of money and entertainment, but only till a point where they become huge problems to deal with, causing scenes, vomiting, etc..

fleet tangle

Violent drunks are the worst.

Hugging drunks are 2nd worst.

_Glares at @deep copper _

cursive crypt

I know a person is kinda alcoholic in a sense regularly drinks on all nighters a liter and something of a spirit. He is very much in control of himself tho. Once they got him driving with over 1 per thousand.

pearl elk

its a trap, its not really a hug they need you to stand up ๐Ÿ˜›

tulip orbit
#

imagine how much hugging there'd be if affectionateuser was drunk....

fleet tangle
#

Also do you mean they caught him driving or they made him drive?

cursive crypt
#

Yeah, 1.1 or 1.2 is criminal.

#

They caught him, like regular traffic check.

proud jay
#

well he still shouldn't be driving

fleet tangle
#

Having a legal limit is so stupid anyway.

cursive crypt
#

He even didn't knew. It was on the other day and he felt great. He does not drive when feeling drunk. He just didn't felt drunk.

proud jay

well yeah, but you have to regulate it in some way

Somebody small could be well under the legal limit and still smashed or whatever.

pearl elk

It is a kind of objective way. Definitely, as with the case with my man, people react differently and handle differently the same concentration of alcohol.

I guess just "dangerous driving" might cover that.

I think we have that

like the officer can test your driving competence

cursive crypt

I don't think they can perform reliable tests on that. Therefore the alcohol testers.

pearl elk

They might. So they should never be driving.

warm bloom

I have a better solution

proud jay

but also if you have an asshole officer he can just say you're drunk while you're not

maybe it's for emergencies, say some serial killer is chasing you or a storm

like changing post processing effects

fps capping

you make button, button press changes

either though helper functions, or for some settings by directly setting some console vars

When Iw as doing this many versions ago, I could never work out refresh rate settings.

#

I couldn't find them anywhere.

#

How to populate them, that is, setting them was np

warm bloom
fleet tangle
#

Basically go into whatever game you like, write down all the graphics settings you want and then find out how to read/change them in UE.

#

Then combine all that knowledge into a single class / ui

broken sigil
#

On the topic of high refresh monitors, you can have 2 144hz monitors and one can have much more blur than the other, it depends on the time it take the panel to switch the pixels from black to White

warm bloom

on the topic of blur

#

anyone who puts motion blur in games is a monster

#

I will make motion blur disabled by default

#

and when you toggle it on it will like shadow ban you

when it turns on , blur it so much that nothing is visible, that would be more hilarious
