But now "Maya-chan! Mayyyaaa-chan! Take this object under my cursor, copy it and then increase its size by 25%"

#

does something else

supple apex

"Maya-chan! Add a cube to the viewport and subdivide it until it become a perfectly realistic looking human model with 6 fingers and 4 legs please! 4k texture while you're at it!"

#

They should probably promote it once it actually reach that level of complexity, that'll be something.

cursive crypt
#

Nope, hype is real. There are already few MP assets for basic integrations.

#

It does not matter whether it makes sense. It just has to be used.

#

These companies see that hype and they are like ๐Ÿค‘

#

So, you bet everyone is riding the hype train. From corps, to small fishes, to ppl who just have nothing better to do.

Why must you be this way :(

Those were some really good animations

I remember when the series was just coming out

proud jay

they still make them

Really?

Thats cool

proud jay

I feel like the older ones were higher qualitythough

maybe I'm just biased though

their environments are always super realistic

but @ancient ingot won't tell his daughter about lucas the spider for some reason

For you

pearl elk
#

Its official, Visual Studio is the worse piece of software for Windows Ive ever used

#

I cant get it to change SDK versions, it just wont do it...

zinc matrix
#

its good debugger

pearl elk
#

too bad it cant debug its own issues

#

crashed a few times on me just opening the project properties

zinc matrix
#

i wonder if that microsofts standalone debugger is still horrible to use. ive used remedybg for smaller projects, its pretty good, but not usable with unreal engine.
memory usage with ue debug symbols is like +32 gigabytes. its crazy town.

zinc matrix
#

i was using my powermac g4 and its hekkin slow

i just had a thought: if we can somehow convert all of those questions and answer in #cpp to some thread on google that would be nice
because some stuff in there is very informative that i can't find anywhere on google

fleet tangle
#

Several people maintain blogs with helpful info.

#

I'm sure you could poke them if you think something should be added!

yep but that option only work with *big thick * question
there is a lot of stupid questions i would love to add

Start your own blog. ๐Ÿ™‚

#

Yo anyone know any good youtube channels that specifically break down how game mechanic concepts in various games were implemented? Even better if they're rare or unique?

#

I've seen videos like this on occasion but they're usually a blip on most chanels or not about a specific games version.

#

I can't play all games so it would just be nice to know about more neat/rare mechanics broken down by someone else for inspo.

zinc matrix
#

but it depend on the genre ur into really

#

for example if you are into moba, you can watch LoL streamers, but as an experienced LoL player, there is no "youtube channels that specifically break down how game mechanic concepts" that you would watch and understand from an outside perspective

#

you will end up playing the game anyway

fleet tangle
#

Actually there are many videos that breakdown game concepts.

zinc matrix
#

Give me a video that break down League of Legends ๐Ÿ˜‚

fleet tangle
#

I didn't say there was one for LoL... but LoL mechanics aren't hard.

#

I mean, you can't even deny creeps ๐Ÿ˜‚

zinc matrix
#

imo league mechanics is much more complex than dota 2 though. Just because they look simple doesn't mean they are simple

fleet tangle
#

If you say so.

zinc matrix
#

But anyway, it depends on why they want to learn those mechanic. Is it for ranked up, or for making a game?

#

Normally those videos is only for people who want to play and ranked up

#

And they are made by player too, because us dev is too busy to make a youtube video lul

fleet tangle
#

There was a fantastic video posted the other day which compared the map design in various rpg games, for instance.

zinc matrix
#

huh? which one?

#

ur triggering my curiosity by saying that without giving a link

uncut mesa
#

dude I've watched tons of these videos

fleet tangle
#

I don't know the link, I'm afraid. It was posted on this Discord... somewhere.

#

I think it was something about things like castlevania and stuff.

uncut mesa
#

I watched one on how breath of the wild did its climbing vs AC

#

it was itneresting

#

that's what makes me wonder if there's any youtube channels that do them more often

#

because I usually see these as one offs

#

but I like the concept of looking at how a specific mechanic is implemented in a game

fleet tangle
#

There's a great wave collapse function video about procedural level design.

uncut mesa
#

so I can see lots of different ways different games have done stuff without owning and playing every game

#

oh I watched one about that recently too. wonder if we're thinking the same thing

uncut mesa
#

thanks

#

that one is different but the same concept as the one I saw recently ๐Ÿ™‚

Well somewhat unrelated but there is a similar thing in online games, US servers are always so much easier than EU ones
Back when I used to play Fortnite with a group I knew we would often get on US servers when we didn't feel like sweating on EU servers because the general skill level was so much lower

Still not quite sure why but it's not just Fortnite, same thing in RL and Apex

in his tv show he used different scottish accents, like in that clip, and for his show his "regular" accent was cleaned up for BBC tv. But his streamer accent is his real accent most of the time. He's clear compered to a lot, especially any of those who are under the influence. Alcohol really affects how thick the accent is.

I found it on that vscode ?

pearl elk

Oh right, the fine print... bloody corpos ๐Ÿ˜›

#

I think its great for when you write code in a specific way but for times when youre jumping around alot it cant keep up very well.

#

Mind you even the auto stuff like quotes and braces dont keep up that well either, the amount of times I have to delete extra quotes because its tried to be too helpful. Least Copilot doesnt auto inject like that

My favourite is when you delete one quote and it helps and deletes both but you only wanted one, then you add one and it adds two gaaaah haha

Dislike it, or keep switching to others. I have seen sometimes the "Don't recommend this", but frankly I have no idea how & when it pops.

but it's not like I dislike the songs

sometimes I just want something different

cursive crypt

Damned to listen to the same 3 favorite songs forever.

pearl elk

I tend to just listen to older songs like nostalgia trip and that broke Spotifys stale recommends

cursive crypt

No idea really. So far it switches on my side. Like for example, I run one favourite song I want to listen similar of, and then it auto fills the queue.

proud jay

well yeah

but often times it's the same shit

or similar

Wasnt there a section with recommends or something? They all the same? Maybe browse some different style for a bit and it will change these recommends.

if rick grimes could find the cage

unreal ether
# proud jay I mean walter is not really a fighter tbh

true, ||but he has blown up an entire nursing home before.|| Rick grimes has the combat knowledge, but walter could just make a nuke or smthn idk.

But it depends on setting. Is this a water fight? A nerf war, or perhaps even a fight between keyboard warriors.

pearl elk

What if Walter White is a character in one of Rick Grimes fever dreams?

I dunno if they are white, bit hard to wash your undies in a zombie apocalypse

probably dirty with a few skiddies

Walter White could obviously wash his undies with his knowledge of chemistry

unreal ether

what if rick grimes is just a manifestation of the fact walter white hates dirt and grime in his meth lab

what if they weren't ๐Ÿ‘€

or what if it was method acting to the extreme, like Bryan Cranston actually did run the most successful meth empire, and the director of the walking dead really did kill the entire population of earth so that Andrew Lincoln could shoot zombies

Lord. I wish I didn't have such social anxiety. I needed to hire someone for freelance work, and of course there's drama. I've already put it off for so long, and when I finally get to it, people can't deal with the fact competition exists and they put their shortcomings on me. Goddamnit

#

I have zero interest in dealing with that

#

I needed a single commission piece, the fact that over 20 people contacted me means there's at least 19 people who don't get the job. Don't get pissed at me for that, that's just how it works.
Spend that effort towards making a better first impression instead.

Yeah, I avoid them as much as I can, but sometimes you just have to, you know?

I just hate shitshows so much.

If they'd ask what made their case less appealing than the person that got the job, I'd even be happy to help them out. But they just get offensive instead.
