Collecting opinions on what people like, so far about half likes 5 the most and the other half 7 the most
what would be your preferred syntax, considering it's supposed to be context free parsing and const by default
That's one of the reason why I'm mostly leaning towards MyInt: int = 0
For inferred types it would end up MyInt: = 0;(or MyInt := 0;, both would be valid syntax)
Noted ๐
so it would be MyInt: int = 0; for const and var MyInt: int = 0; for mutable (previously wanted to use mut)
yeah I'm leaning on the : operator at the moment for context free parsing but might have other uses for : as well so I might end up needing let in there as well
I'm basically attempting to do "reimagined" C++ ๐
Solving some of the worst issues with C++, native dependency manager and toolchain and a bunch of other stuff
Don't really expect it to ever be a proper complete language because who the hell is gonna write the entirety of the standard library (beyond the basics)
But the language core is going nicely at the moment
Tbf it's a bit different ๐
I'm not compiling to C++, I'm using LLVM, so LLVM IR -> machine code
Allows me to do things differently than what a transpiler from Cpp2 to Cpp would be able to do
But comes with the issue of having to write the standard library myself, which in the case of C++ might not be a bad idea at all lol
Plus should be able to support native interop with C++ without too much issues
how surprising things dont work for your non-paragon game
AIModule didnt really improve much after paragon is dead
fortnite using statetree
you wont have ai in your game? 
wait
do you have that default floor thing
or a default cube mesh
because they might not be working
did you manually place it or did it come by default with a map though, this part is for some awful reason is important
try placing a landscape?
mieszko was mentioned landscapes were directly supported thats why I thought of it
but then you woke up?
i wonder if UE6 will finally have the ability to move smart objects
so that interactables don't have to be welded in place
I kinda ruined my ears with this one.
Just a loop, very loud, high frequencies.
But I think I got all the pieces mixed to where I'd want em.

Feel like you need a MJ image of aliens to go with that track ๐
I named that high woopwoop synth "Portal Bird" hehe.
but if you want a weird MJ query: "The last Portal bird's mating call"
was actually inspired by this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDRY0CmcYNU
The haunting beauty of a love song lost amidst the shrill sounds of commercial exploitation.
last recorded mating call from the Kauai, the pauses are where its partner would sing.
super sad
lol will try in a few min
totally not because of amd partnership
The irony is that modders enabled dlss support so it more than likely had it on release but it was disabled
hence why its not because of amd partnership
totally not related
why would micro$oft do such thing
totally not, 100% pinky promise ๐
you look more intimidating than usual with that hammer
like if almost you're going to strike me for no reason
cyberpunk 2.0 patch had a weird bug where it detected keyboard/mouse as gamepad and showed the wrong controls for some users
someone posted a hex address and some new value for the cyberpunk exe which fixes it
how the fuck did they figure that one out?
and a lucky shot i guess
yea i would have kinda rather expected a mod which fixes it, not a binary patch
i mean, the luck is that only one "address" was affected
and you didnt had to patch multiple places
x64dbg shows assembler instructions or what?
ah nvm, seems like it does
Visual Studio has billions of features but you will only use it as a notepad++ and compiler :p
dunno about that. I only build from source once per version. The rest of the time its jsut building what I change so it's quick
I'd hate to go back to my i7-4790k build times tho. 7 hours for a full engine build was harsh
Mind you, building a full engine build from source is nothing compered to rendering in Blender with Cycles. I've had renders take 2 days with my current pc. One time I just outsourced it to peer2peer render farm to save time. Wish we could do that with source builds
In fact.... the way unreal compiles into modules, that shouldn't be too difficult to make a program to do something like that. /ponders
1080ti
yeah i'm too far behind with a 1080ti for hardware RT. It's the weak point of my system because I have a 12700k cpu, 32gb of DDR5 and a gen 4 nvme. But when I build it I was waiting for the 4090 to release and by the time it did I had money issues so I didn't want to spend it on a GPU. But it still does the job except in the hardware rtx side
when I have a render that's going to take24 hours or more though I use SheepIt renderfarm. It's usually quicker
only problem is when I'm using custom plugins because it doesn't really work with it unless the other people have the plugin, but SheepIt downloads a separate blender version for peer rendering
it just got worse tbh. My aunt just had a stroke and found out she has cancer. So along with the stress of moving, I'm now panicking over her dying
life is a son of a bitch for me. I don't care for it anymore. It's just a troll
nope
dlss requires information directly from the game's rendering pipeline so the game had to have dlss already implemented for the mod to magically enable it
aside from wanting the security for my kids, I really want to get this issue resolved so I can get back to coding my game. I've not touched it in over a month. Just can't get my head into it with all the depression circling my brain. I need a fresh start
compared to the last 2 weeks, that's probably true ๐
i doubt that they could have even changed the TOS
unless in some 4th world country
An absurd excuse, but it's the result of an all-too-common mindset in tech companies: engagement and growth drive all of their decisions. Not getting engagement? May as well ditch it.
Imagine if they used this excuse to remove the privacy policy from their website.
In fairness, removing a GitHub repository that tracks changes to their TOS is not the same as removing the TOS from their website. The latter is far more important. I still agree it is an absurd excuse.
And is demonstrative of the corrupt thinking that led Unity to this very moment in the first place.
had an evil idea for a games soundbit, have a raondom one be the discord PM/mention sound so it makes people check randomly
Diabolical.
Yes.. because why not make a game cause physiological trauma. Especially horror games
You want to do that, freeze the screen and put the sound buffer on repeat.
It'd be cruel to yourself with all the bug reports from people who reset their PC immediately.
I wonder what the mobile equivalent would be.
Maybe have a text message prompt appear but the framerate quickly grinds to a halt before the message becomes visible.
@broken sigil if C02 causes global warming, and is a greenhouse gas. Why dont we just freeze c02 (dry ice) and slap that shit into space.
the amount of CO2 generated by the rockets would probably far outweigh the amount of CO2 being shipped
Well just freeze that too duh
kinda hard to freeze something when its being shot out the back of a rocket at 500+m/s at 1000+celsius
another month or two and I will be
"Instant water, just add water"
what's going on?
ahhh then ig I'm gayer than I thought I would be
being evicted
sorry to hear, are you in the US?
no england
Anything protecting you, law wise?
Specially if you have kids
In some countries there are special cases when kids are involved, regarding eviction
the only thing is the council has to put us in a hostel for upto 54 days. They can put us in the queue for a council house at the highest priority when we are evicted. Until then nothing.
there are a lot of people in the same boat though since the interest rates went through the roof. Landlords are all selling up to avoid huge increases in monthly mortgage payments. So people, like us, are going through what is called "No-fault evictions".
They should call it "Bank of shitty England's fault evictions"
I had to close my store 9 months ago because of a similar issue.
I didn't owe anything to anyone, but they just tripled rent out of nowhere because they really wanted to sell and that was their way of getting rid of us, legally they could do this.
Meanwhile, the government spends billions of trashloot, makes sure the money goes into the pocket of their friends, reduces taxes for the rich and sends billions to the war in ukraine. As it's people starve and get made homeless.
karma must be real because they had the building empty for over 6 months and now its being rented by some scum, serves them right for ruining someone's dream that was almost 6 years in the going.
@fathom wadi this happens everywhere, we are heading toward a massive event but perhaps I won't see it happen, maybe next generation or the one after.
it's like the world is doomed to repeat history. Meanwhile, those that don't ignore it are the ones that suffer the fools that do
Indeed but without power there's not much one can do
Hack the planet !
I'm the "shaded" one because I always tell everyone what's about to happen, and how it's everyone's fault... Even though I try nobody cares.
They are all glued to their screens while the powerful play with their future.
This is by design.
tiktok, etc. didn't happen by chance or luck.
yeah distraction is the best form of control. Make people's attention span so small and increment change slowly, and you bypass any defensive reactionary success.
It's all designed to hook mediocre people into cheap and quick dopamine rushes, creating a dependency while they waste away and the ones with this knowledge manipulate the system to their advantage, I know it sounds like a conspiracy theory but it's happening.
This causes information sharing to shift toward this medium as well, so now people use these platforms as search engines...
(information which is degrading rapidly due to "ai" bs as well)
throw in a little Problem, Reaction, Solution into the mix and you keep the sheeple happy
you know how a photocopy of a photocopy degrades?, the movie Idiocracy wasn't too far off, in fact it's dead-on.
At least people will waste away with plenty of titties on the internet. I mean, better than 1939 when you had to imagine those boobies.
I remember reading about this Boris fool making parties over there in the UK, the same thing was going on here... exactly the same. Except the people are still in charge, nobody resigned.
They laugh at your very face.
That's the least of Boris Johnson's crimes
I'm aware of some, but corruption flies everywhere, sadly.
You know how the US has Skull and Bones? Well Boris was a leading member in the UK equivalent, the Bullingdon Boys Club.
And as long as the corrupt keep everyone around them happy, it will keep on going.
They figured this out many years ago, divide and conquer by any means neccesary.
@fathom wadi I'm not in the US actually, we were enemies at some point in time and some people still hold a grudge, I don't.
I think it's always been politics messing with everyone's mind.
Vietnam? Korea? The rest of the world except England and Israel? ๐
But then again if we go back many, many years... you guys were kinda taking what wasn't yours.
"who wasn't"
I don't know if it was driven by religion or what.
not me. I never took a damn thing. And throughout history the last time my relatives took anything was in 1066 when we came from France to take England with William the Conqueror ๐
it's marked so deeply into some cultures like India and the Philippines (with the Spanish)
Somewhere in the rest of the world ๐
Recent conflict by history's standards.
Doesn't matter though.
Grenada? Guam? I dunno I could list a lot without going into the middle east
Because they want hatred to flourish.
The Ukraine war is another political move... I wish they would go full VR and quit wasting lives.
I like to think that Cyberpunk 2077 had the right idea of the future. We get all self-absorbed by our bodies, but undernearth it all the underground A.I. is smarter thant he military ones and takes it down and we all reset.
I find solace knowing in an alternative universe Putin comes out as the raging gay he is, and everyone is happy because he's also happy, win-win.
England was at war with the US
I'll give you the year if you want.
that wasn't real. We were just split in the decision of who was going to run things. It wasn't a real war
At least Mel Gibson won it for the US and we all had burgers and bbq sauce for tea
Speaking of India, they are way ahead space-wise than the UK now?
we do things in Europe space wize
the UK space program is dogshit tbh. We might throw money into the kitty with the US from time to time but we don't do anything special
its just damn expensive
who said NASA wasn't expensive?
they are either stealing it or they are the most inefficient folk in town.
India is ahead of russia in space stuff tho
my son wants to works at NASA. I told him to work at SpaceX instead because they have a budget, NASA has pocket money.
yes, russia failed
maybe one of the vacuum tubes died.
haha
"Sergey the heater broke on this one, what should we do?"
- We drink for fallen electric hero in space then we play roulette. spins revolver drum
@fathom wadi not sure about the toxicity of that work environment though
the head of the russia moon thing got a lil sick and died after it failed
ate bad mushrooms or something
at spacex? Why?
what are the odds.. the lander bad and the mushrooms bad? ๐
Ahh an Elon hater. Good old internet twisting minds again ๐
well its his own posts on the internet
What he posts on twitter is of no concern to me. What he does to advance the human race is. And with that I stand by him
I'm not an Elon hater...
lol
Ask former workers.
I wouldn't ask anyone I didn't know. Especially anyone who was fired
That's a strange way of thinking.
Elon is not a gift too the human race
"so because they were fired they must have done something very bad"
its not strange. People attack former employers all the time, as if its not their fault they were removed from the job
when you point at someone there are multiple fingers pointing back at you.
this is not always the case, people are often fired for other reasons.
or they just leave
quit because they are expected to do a certain level of work and can't.
when the level is not realistic, and you feel trapped, we'll see what you do.
I mean if a place is literally breaking your spirit because you are being attacked for whatever reason, sure. But I haven't heard anything like that from any of the businesses Elon handles.
you know, people assembling the loved iphone deal with deep depression and many have killed themselves, due to this and other reasons such as low pay, poor working conditions, etc.
and its not a conspiracy, not made up... just the truth.
they even put nets throughout the facilities so people wouldn't jump.
@fathom wadi buying a big chunk of social media to pretend you'll stop it from being a censoring w**** when in reality that's what you'll use it for.
9 hours a day is a lot if there is just tiny lil iritations everyday
I dunno. People have a choice to work. IF they leave, it's their choice too
How has he done anything worse than Twitter before him? He literally gave out all the information that showed how Twitter was censoring people, ergo he's done the reverse of censorship. He's been open.
any person that says he buys dogecoin to help poor ppl cannot be trusted
I show you this hand while the other hand is doing who knows what, magic.
you trust what you can see, the problem is what can't be seen.
well that's just auto-distrust and I don't buy into that. Especially when there is no other industrialist on the planet doing more for the future of humanity than Elon Musk
That's debatable, lithium based energy storage is not clean, sir.
And the energy going into recharging these packs, are not often clean.
its not as simple as that. Whats the alternative? Big wind farms on your phone?
He shouldn't be using private jets and helicopters if he cared, right?
man Im out. this is fucking dumb liberal talk that the internet breeds.
he aint no Nicola Tesla man
What?
Musk is pathetic.
Speaking of clean energy, I hope more focus goes into the hydrogen fuel cell stuff
That's interesting and a lot cleaner than lithium ewaste
nah man, cold fusion
I could so drive him to the ground but I won't, I'm better than this.
Just a shame there's so few places to fuel up with hydrogen
I can only name one near me and it's like a 40 minute drive
but you might aswell run a steam engine in ur car, cuz the power often comes from coal anyways ๐
yey, dumb liberals.
in ww2 they drove wood gas cars here sometimes
Just have a nuclear reactor car and pinky swear to never crash
heh they wanted to do this actually
I think there were a couple prototypes, not sure if they had a working reactor but yeah.... it was the 40s
50*
You should
The concept cars from then were weird.
Wouldn't mind getting my hand on one some day :P
The stigma around nuclear power is disappointing
It really is one of the best ways forwards
atomic age was cool... ppl wanted to solve all problems with uranium... these days ppl want to create problems to solve with NFTs
Soooo NFTs = Uranium
what instead of putting uranium in reactors we use NFTs?
and we use the power from the reactor to mint NFTs!
now we have a closed loop system
Hello, if you have 5 minutes... https://forms.gle/e2hQJADRH6VPwqfb9 (I hope this is allowed, but thank you)
Hello, the team at Szeiner Software Company and I decided to ask you for your favorite game modes/mechanics.
"What's it all about?"
First of all, this is a project that focuses on solo/coop/online polygon undead...zombies. Last time we worked out a name for the project together. Now we have plans for really expanded possibilities and that takes...
- In addition, I wanted to avoid spamming and therefore it is necessary to have it as verification.
You can enter anything random if you want...
Shows nothing?
wdym by that nothing?
Weird
It is working for me
Thats okay ๐
I mean...thank you for your info about that, but for me it is working
Nice, I happy for that ๐ good to know
It is slightly concerning when a game doesn't know what mode fits it, and lists virtually every mode ever to exist
soon blue man implement deja new features the image generation what implement text for reply
I really thought tabbed folders would be really useful
But then I realized that 99% of the time that I'm actually opening a folder, it's to move soemthing from one folder to another and I end up opening two windows anyways
holy crap this actually works lol

MS buys Unity, integrates it with W12, "Make games with AI!" Upload them directly to gamepass
ms buys epic then make MSNITe they new game
And in true Microsoft fashion, Godot becomes a better engine than Unity
ms buys both, turns them into activex component.
Delete this
Ms buys gobot and rename it to GoPilot
a product that will ship as part of office 360, inside powerpoint.

When does the gamejam results come out?
lol this is a pretty cool effect

yes... white...

got what I asked for lmao
umm
hello everyone reading this.
i hope you a productive day and put a lot of code on the table
what kind of Jarvis is this?
And still haven't. Cough (sorry, joking)
Windows copilot
Look pretty neat.
only on Windows 11 I guess?
Yeah, only on insider builds pretty sure

uck
Or whatever it's called
my PC is potato, can't run Win11
Probably one of the reasons I don't use reddit.
It is, at least, recognisable, if not... good.
The proportions are all out of whack!
It's really not that hard.
What's hard is translating what you want to actually do onto paper.
that sound mathy
It's not really mathy, it's just visualisation.
You can use math to work it out, sure, but that's not how humans do things.
It always surprises me that some people are unable to visualise in their head.
Thinks he has an echo
oh oh is it like understand connection between c++ classes
that im good

she is solving a math problem ๐
that guy is doing full math drawing
i just mean the ability to remember ratio between body part which human sucked at
our brain is just not designed to deal with numbers
well i made my own profile pic, so im really good
but if you understand perspective and 3d enough you can calculate anything
angles?
i mean i guess each people look at things differently though
i just apply math to everything i do
well you can say it's not good because human brain can't deal with more complex equations
but something like AIs could really pull math drawing out
or some very smart people
could just give him some art tips so he gets into art school
well he didnt...
some1 else would have gone full war... it cant be helped

RA3 timeline is where hitler is defeated and US nuked Russia
Red Alert 3 - Prologue / Opening / Intro HD
we should have a music channel
i feel like all unreal devs always have some similar mood at all time
gray mood
or maybe its just me
My playlist is everything from rock, metal, heavy metal to pop, electronic, etc... lol
fuck off
^
yo i wrote some maze algorithm and they are bitches
i mean hard
very hard
the hard thing about them too is when you are done you cant stop staring at them
aw so you dont do procgen
I wonder how RA3 achieved this graphics at 2008
Not on crysis level but holy fuck this thing looks like almost modern at 2023
RA3 is awesome
my favourite command and conquer by far
Generals was also nice
man, i love cnc (thats command and conquer, im not a degen)
favourite was probably tiberium twilight
red alert 2 was fun too
Whats degen version of cnc? I hope I wont regret asking
i mean engine/hardware was somewhat capabale of producing real to life graphics. it's just that game were in the "brown" phase for whatever reason
trust me you do NOT want to know
Really?
I trust u
i actually liked the tiberium wars
the concept of those crawlers was cool
i hope they remaster the tiberium series someday
What do u think? @sand oxide 
gta 4 and 5 are a great example (on xbox 360). same engine, some reused models but gta5 decided to be more colourful instead of restricting itself to the brown colour pallet which made it actually look good
Im not sure, there are 5 years of gap
They should have added a lot meanwhile
i mean the only performance trick gta 5 did that gta 4 hadnt was the reduced ragdoll physics accuracy and some landscaping magic. but overall the LOD of both games are pretty identical
lighting and many other cool things improved way more since then
i mean cnc had 3 series, generals, red alert and tiberium saga
this is from the tiberium saga
is it?
alright then
all 3 are separate universe
final edit: didnt play tiberium at all
PMJ is love!
you should if you ever get time, especially tiberium dawn
that game was SICK
i guess they focus on space imperialism or something like that
space what now
space wars but everyone is trying to be victorian era UK
wha, no thats not how i remember it
the tiberium saga was mostly 80s spy thriller stuff
since i didnt play, i dont know
ok you caught my interest
yeah it has lots of subterfuge and backroom politics happening ||you are the scapegoat in the end||
i mean lighting really didnt improve much between 4 and 5 from what i remember (in xbox 360 that is). the improvement came from the improved water look but environment wise they are pretty identical
eyyy, that looks pretty
PC versions are radically different
you forgot the "with a massive free trial" or something to that effect
is this another case where art direction > graphics then
counter question
do you see anything beyond 2008 on the ra3 images i posted?
or does it look like "yeah thats just regular 2008 graphics"
apart from the lack of browniness ๐
all old games I remember from <2010 looks like HL2
Thank you. Please be more careful in the future about insulting others.
oh yeah why did everything from that era have that stupid ass brown look? i think its called sepia
holy crap titanfall 2 is fun, how did I never play it before 
it was the future of gaming man
are you playing rn?
ikr! i spent hours on this game's campaign alone!
oh yeah ive been meaning to play that again
it was pretty much the game that inspired me to pursue game dev lol
then on technical level what made Crysis revolutionary? did they use better algorithms, some next-gen lighting stuff etc?
that it looked awesome at 2008
damn, you wouldnt throw a crochet to a woman
i know nothing about crysis other than "can it run crysis" meme which for me doesnt give the impression of a highly optimised and clever engine ๐
so meanwhile gamers are hyping, graphics developers were finding it usual and something only runs on expensive devices?
its a running joke in that game series, but if you never punched that reporter you actually ||get a nice ingame benefit in the form of increased war assets||
femshep FTW
exactly!
she's the best thing that happened to voice acting, EVER
i honestly love the emotion she puts into femshep
gw2?
nier automata 2b's voice acting is also amazing
both JP and EN
though its rare cases where EN is better than JP
I was surprised
no i mean i dont recognise the abbreviation
oh yeah i love nier automata too
ahhhhh
that game
nice
anime dubs are probably bad because crunchyoll/retailer does this via contracts and usually one VA company dominates the industry
wasnt she in some other game too recently?
meanwhile game companies value more meritotracy
like a couple years ago
i cant remember what though
BAYONETTA
goddamn that took me wayy too long to remember
right
i mean tbf i said recently
Bayonetta is an awful character but VA is OP
||she's even more pissed at the thought of cloneshep killing her fish||
dammit now i want to play mass effect again
oh btw @sand oxide my profile pic is from the leaving earth scene, just before the shot of the ||alliance fleet wreckage in orbit of earth||
i just picked ||destroy||. thats the only real ending
lmao
||marauder shields died for our sins||
no
i actually didnt get that scene because ||that krogan lady in me3 died||
listen i didnt know that genetic data was so important lmao
@sand oxide finally getting 5.3 set up as it turns out apparently oceanology requires no changes for it anyway (they are taking their sweet time on releasing updates for it)
maybe soon ill be able to confirm WP is unfucked
i dont like a lot about them
the marketing is bad
the plugin itself works well, but they have ticked me off in many ways
for instance, in 5.1.6 they straight up removed the coast masking feature
kind of important if you have a continent that has elevations below sea level
they were just like "we'll add it back in the next version", no explanation, no warning
and fwiw they removed that feature in july
still no release adding it back
Heresy, no my friend.
its amazing that game runs on 3gb ram
whats left on materials that nanite doesnt support at this point btw?
translucency
how did you write this sentence in lesser time than 1s
my one word equals to your 4/5
you're an alien
did you ever participate in fast typing competitions
pretty sure you'd beat tons of people
meanwhile types all day to newbies at cpp
it still wasnt enough
points for adding the skeletal though
i cant imagine you're typing faster than that without breaking your keyboard
Laura is typing... literally appeared for 1s
i just meant enough to win
0.1ms or server latency
i feel like depends on keyboard
but laura also reads fast
bonus point for that
she starts finishing her answer while I'm reading my own text after sending it
serves em right for being on the phone
how dare they use phone at.. 2023
you got dis 5.3
5.3 is calibrating
world partition
recently the principal dev who is developing WP followed me at twitter
I felt so cool
nice
they are cool now that its apparently fixed
compiling shaders, time for coffee
what else is going on
accurate
๐ณ๏ธ
@sand oxide you did this. i hate you
@sand oxide how about ai pathing
it barely works for more than like 2 or 3 characters
wait so do you just have a completely custom AI system for your game? or did you give up on AI in general?
What's the todays talk about?
you have a choice of an unrealistic avoidance strat or one that doesn't work at all
it works for 50 characters for me
I guess I meant avoidance
and Laura being alien for typing fast
how are you doing avoidance Eren?
not completely terrible considering I have no clue what I'm doing lol
add me lets play
too much Titanfall there
I've not heard of nrvo or orca
gotta use that superhuman typing speed for comedy
i wish I had fast typing skills as laura, could bully people on other servers faster
god knew I would be too powerful
luara

she exists btw
wdym
luara is real
is nrvo even real
oh goddammit laura
of course she is real, i just talked to her about mass effect
you talked with laura
luara is her evil twin
@timber viper do you have humanoids with that rvo?
one brings half jets through cpp jobs other via lua jobs then they achieve complete F-35
bipedal creatures
how do you handle the side slide weirdness-- a trick in your anim controllers?
ah
yeah fair
ORCA and detour is better
but UE doesnt utilize detour properly
why would it when paragon doesnt need it
detour has mostly been broken for me
its not, disable rvo first
kythera had ORCA
and it was beyond amazing
and it was per unit via data assets
not AIController bullshit
it is
also terribly interop
to UE
it works well on cryengine though
I had a client who was really going to pay, but they didnt know this and assumed he's broke
idiots didnt answer to our emails
and lost a chance to earn a few tens thousand $$
if one were really motivated, could it just be implemented directly from the paper? or is there some kind of patented crap that would preclude that? https://gamma.cs.unc.edu/ORCA/
We present a formal approach to reciprocal collision avoidance, where multiple independent mobile robots or agents need to avoid collisions with each other without communication among agents while moving in a common workspace. Our formulation, optimal reciprocal collision avoidance (ORCA), provides sufficient conditions for collision-free motion...
or is this not the orca I'm looking for
someone implemneted from this paper
and told us know at cpp
search the link on message history
Eren: s/know/no ?
what does that mean
did you mean "told us no"
syntax error
oh ok
in 4 days
soooo probably a month or two for my dumb ass
would be even more for me
or we pay Laura to do it and it's done in a day
she already did
now pay up

"It's worth noting, however, that no matter how many orks are barreling your way (and often there will be a lot) the framerate never takes a hit."
because probably you didnt run it on a single gamethread
Uno or Unc ๐
ok so yes my characters still fall out of the world on load, but i think thats more about the character logic than WP
because there are some physics objects that are not falling out of the world anymore
it seems load times are definitely optimized, as i have a debug command to make the PC run at a ridiculous pace and a lot more of far areas gets loaded before i get there-- though there are some assets that appear to be loading in super slowly. Interesting that it is specific ones
maybe they are in the wrong grids though
Yep thats why. They are on grid None ๐
relatively new additions to the map
let me try my axes of evil test map
i havent gone back to this since laura mentioned that it was because the quadtree doubled the distance when it overlapped multiple cells
this is horrible
why is everything of the "any" type
for some reason I'm writing JavaScript
thanks for ruining my message order discord
if you are in typescript it sounds like you dont have strict mode turned on
in javascript thats just how it works
oh, if you are in TS and even stuff that has type annotations is showing up as any, then probably your imports are squiggled at the top
@sand oxide sooo when i select something during simulation and WP unloads it, the inspector gets cleared. I can use this fact to see if actors on the axes ever unload even if i go really really far away
it appears they do not
so its not the quadtree cell overlap thing
wtf you said it was fixed ๐คฃ
maybe it was that other guy though
but he was, well
you know
lets just say "it was the general channel"
oh that would be helpful at least
as long as I can leave a 50m area of nothing around the grid axes lol
sigh, I guess as long as I cap render distance on everything then it's only game thread affecting actors that I need to worry about, and the character logic already has freeze rules for distance
when 5.3 came out I was surprised to hear the axes thing would be fixed because epic marked it won't fix
tbf if I can get hlods up and running this should be a nonissue
What is happening here?
the quadtree that WP uses has a limitation around the zero axes of a runtime grid
actors around this area remain loaded at all times
Because of how world partition works with a quadtree, a cross section of landscape tiles will always be loaded. You can see it here on the default open world map. A line of landscape tiles will always exist that cross the seam of the topmost quadtree, forcing them to always be loaded. I feel like Iโm missing something, because without a wo...
they have been aware of it, and apparently have tried to fix it, but could not and so without HLODs in place you can have a big perf impact if there are a lot of actors in these areas of your map
in my measurements it can be about 50m around the axes, but really that should depend on the extents of the actors involved
I've been using WP, and having haven't noticed this. That's very weird.
as it says in the thread, with HLODs enabled and built, it isnt really an issue
if you dont have HLODs then... maybe you dont have stuff around those axes? you can use Simulate to test this stuff out pretty easily on a map
WP will center loading around your simulation camera by default
problem for me is i was unable to get WP HLODs working until 5.2
and my map is huge
This basically what it is?
so i have a lot of layer configuration and build time to do
ehh that doesnt look like the same issue no
Oh, after playing with it a bit more, it is very odd
thats 2 crashes in 5.3 so far and i dont think its my fault this time
it's 4am here almost breakfast time im so happy
My brain, all nice and rippled but flat on the spot I need it to be rippled
Need to finish this titanfall match first 
I think I'm addicted to Titanfall now 
https://youtu.be/1pjD_6CFuu0
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 16-Core Processor
Memory: 64 GB RAM (63.92 GB RAM usable)
Current resolution: 2560 x 1440, 170Hz
Operating system:
what's ur edpi
800 dpi and 1.5 in game
that's much higher than mine
im so struggle with flicking around
that look fun though
it's nice enjoying video games
I don't know how I have never played titanfall before
yeah this is about perfect for me, any higher and I'm overshooting, anything lower and I can't flick far enough
I'm also using ceramic mouse skates and hard mouse pad so it feels quite a bit faster than it would on a cloth pad
which I like
๐
ages ago, haven't used it in a long time
dpi doesnt say much by itself

oh that ceramic stuff even make dpi faster
that thing is crazy slip
it feels like there is barely any friction
you have dpi, mouse speed and monitor resolution
in any sane game final sensitivity is gonna be detached from resolution
if you go from 1080 to 4k you need to up ur dpi or mouse sense
ill been doing aim lab for a while and i dont know how to get 100k
saw some pro player got 130k
those guys are monster
ah I have Kovaak's, not aim labs
Just checked, couldn't remember
go try aim lab it's kinda entertaining though (also addicted)
i dont change my monitor to a higher res verry often... but last time i had to change my mouse speed
it will depend on the game, I know it was a lot more common in older games
I'll have to give it a try
you move the cursor pixels per tick
yeah it is about 30ish cm
Did you elevate just after I left lol
yes ๐
Once I warmed up a bit
Dw I used to play a with a friend that I had to carry every single time and I didn't really care ๐
I don't really care about winning
think it was when i moved my pc to friends place to play fortnite... uses pretty common engine ๐
I generally suck at any shooter
A bit good with souls likes
And generally play well on RTS games
Let me know tomorrow if you wanna play 
yo im literally the same, turn turned out that is all to do what the aim
Normally if this was rs6 or csgo I could play at least "good" but tf2 is on another level
Everyone is everywhere
im almost immortal in dota but nova csgo
Titanfall 2 has one of the best single player campaigns I've ever played
hmm that's questionable if ur good at rts but suck at dota 2
I played when I was 12
had a friend that was like top10 red alert 3 in ranking ... got invited to test the latest game or something... but was in US and he had to pay everything himself
pretty lame for such a big name game
I'm the opposite lol
I can't play dota, league, etc... but I do very well in shooters
In fortnite me and a friend were super close to qualifying for the world cup when that was around lol
When I was playing fortnite I was actually like 2nd player with the highest number of kills for a while, first was HighDistortion (streamer) ๐
and yes I was addicted...
Oh, when?
years ago
battle royale are the worst to be addicted to
so fucking time consuming
second must be rts and dota 2
yep, kinda regret spending years on it
now that i am trying to dev in unreal engine i cant even play dota 2 anymore
only league of legend or some card game
card game is so fast and healthy
but also expensive XD
Today was the most I played a game in one sitting in ages, played TF2 for like 4 hours
That's how much I do in a week these days lol
but damn tf2 is fun
Tf2 was nice
need to play the story mode

i was sick good in tribes 2, I got invited in one of the top clans in tribes ascend after 2 weeks of playing but the game was dead pretty fast
really couldnt bother joining the clan
had like 120kill per death ratio on that shit on average
oh i just remember the worst game to be addicted to
it was rust and dayz
holy i spend like 12 hours a day farming
I dont remember being addicted to a game
But csgo and lol was around 500 hours
And I had a rs6 phase once
Then Pubg when it was really popular but dropped easily
im like above average on shooters... but when planes are involved i get superpowers
Bf42 sucks at planes
How do u even play that
Bruh
Dont waste ur life
Be productive
It says "resume" 
play dota 2 like having sex, you cant really delete it
tribes ascend was awesome, I loved that game
i played like 2 games on dota, didnt like it much... i played some LOL tho
i am hi
2.4k hours 
Fortnite was something like 4k
i was sick good on the bikes and planes ๐
dota is the kind of game that feel bored first 100 games, but after that you addicted
also 500m mortar hits
i had a pilot build and a heavy build on tribes
i was near immortal
I didn't even go for the goal of the match
I was just trying to gain as much speed and do drive/fly by kills lol
The trick where you shoot behind youself to get that massive boost lol
mid air collision kills with my bike was my thing
I would just max speed fly into any player and they would die
repair my own plane cuz they cost credits
true flag grabbers were near impossible to kill with a plane tho
basically nothing could hit a player goin 2000km/h
I also loved Hawken, kinda reminds me of titanfall, I played that a lot as well
But servers have been shut down ages ago
Hawken reborn or whatever it's called is not it, the original one was really good
it was great
https://youtu.be/udEAEARD-Fo?t=34
You are free to fight!
Join the Open Beta now: http://www.playhawken.com/#enlist/
Adhesive Games is developing Hawken, a new Mech Combat FPS.
There are many aspects of the game, some already finished, that are not shown in this video. However we feel it gives a good first glimpse and are looking forward to releasing more media!
why

I was invited to play fortnite BR before it was even fully publicly released
Was like 2k players on the servers lol
Played it for years after that until they kinda ruined the competitive aspect of it
bet i can beat blue in a match with planes ๐

The OG fortnite felt very special
hire laura to write verse
when it came out
ow its still kinda special

It's very different, I much prefered early days of FN BR
ppl got sick fast with the builds tho
they seperated competative and normal mode in a weird way tho
how do you people be productive while playing games

like pro players/streamers dont wunna get replaced and hate on anything that can beat build meta
so competative and normal play is actually not the same items you play with and that is weird
that sounds... confusing
yea, i like ranked games.. they dont have bots... but on later versions only non ranked had planes... and i love my planes
I just wanted to play ranked with my planes but i could not ๐ฆ
so if you play non ranked to test a new strat you play a diffrent game than you play on ranked
that's so weird
yea
yeah from what I've seen the standard mode is super casual now
its still a good shooter
Might give it a try again
Any "20 game challenge"ers here?
Needing something more lightweight and bitesized for a bit to help get over some mental blocks
I trick my ADHD by being like "I'm going to play a video game today!" And then I open up the game and within like 30 minutes I get distracted by something UE related.
These are always my most productive days
nice hack
I'm not suffering from adhd so I wouldnt know though
I love that my uni never closed my account
Oh, I'd never say a word
I dropped out because I didn't want to sit through 2 years of classes just to get to something I hadn't learned on my own already
CS
It was like 8 hours of classes a day, with like 1-2 hours of actual CS work for like 2 years
That's a lot of wasted time if you can just learn it yourself
Who cares about a paper
I got my first 'gamedev' job from a Craigslist ad after spending like a month learning Unity
It was very interesting
Granted, it was just making slot machines
what is this? I made an account in deviant art to publish AI generated landscapes. All images of landscapes and beautiful nature, roads. Nothing related to concept art. Then this PM comes.
Oh yeah, with the help of ChatGPT, my resume looks like I invented the concept of gambling
must be a scam and a virus. I didn't open the exe. But there were screenshots with props included
Using this to try Maya because I feel like Blender messes with my head
My fingers simply can't swap between UE and Blender
I keep sending him videos of like cool Houdini destruction stuff and being like "wow! That's so cool! I sure bet the people who make this kinda stuff are just the coolest people!"
Devian Art lacks a report button
it's the "artificial" bullet spread, early FN BR was notorious for it
yeah I really liked that ๐
Streamer bloom refers to getting "lucky" and having basically no bullet spread
Same as "streamer loot"
I didn't either and no one once asked me for a degree for a programming related job
My plan is just portfolio, gamejams, and 1 single fully complete commercial product
art station seems to be a bad place to post AI generated landscapes
Really? I just thought Epic doesn't block AI stuff even on their store. Although I don't like AI generated thing being on some professional art community like Artstation
epic should block it
But Tim is quite free for AI stuff as he mentioned.
Again, I don't like it to be in the commercial production including games, arts, music and etc.
I can almost bet that pretty much any decently large studio is right now looking into or working on their own AI models
It would be crazy not to considering we are still pretty much in the infancy of AI
imagine if NPCs in games are powered by ChatGPT?
Eventually it'll be seen as no different as any other digital art
I remember there being backlash about "digital art is not real art" stuff when photoshop was starting to become a thing
I always wondered what the Millennial version of boomers being like "Kids these days with their smart phones. Back in my day..." and after the whole "kwebbelkop ai" thing, I'm 100% sure it's going to be AI
"All this AI created content! Back in my day we watched real content creators!"
ChatGPT, or GPT in general would absolutely suck for it considering how censored and limited it is
But custom models is where it's gonna be at
until AGI comes anything custom will be better
and once people will be able to customize freely as if they're writing python scripts gpt will die
based on openai ceo this is 5 years later
Well, the real art is still there and I believe real contents will still be there in the future. AI might take a part of low level stuff, that's true. Like super low budget casual games
Texturing AI is my biggest want
"here's a brick texture, he's some textures that I'm using, make the brick texture match the style of the rest of the assets"


Mine was the average after 5 attempts
same

this is my best "single" attempt so far
Guiness World Records is standing in my room
He has clipboard and is quietly writing while going "hmmm... mhmh" and everything
I'm just going solo right now
I'm too busy learning to make a dream game
Probably going to go through the 20 game challenge over the next couple of weeks. Or Looman's course first, then the 20
I think AI revolution needs to come sooner so we can all just have AI partners
you prefer that people stay without partner at all?
honestly doesn't sound too bad in my case ๐
I use AI to tell me my code is bad and suggest worse code. So basically no different than a person at this point
If they only licensed my long term memory system I made for LLMs 
deserve is quite the phrasing...
ok I hate that emoji

oh it's so bad
This emoji 
?
Yes it's 
I hate it
๐
ngl it kinda is starting to grow on me the more I use it
you could use it as profile pic to get used to it
I will live through lonely people making parasocial relationships with AI provided by some company free of charge, only for that company to turn around and start massively charging people for the same service or else they'll lose their AI friend
love how one convo here is about relationships and the other one about an emoji
I mentioned I blacked out like gonna be 2 years soon and I developed pretty debilitating heart anxiety, borderline PTSD, to the point where doing absolutely anything alone is a challenge
So yeah I think at this point AI doesn't sound too bad
Someone who hasn't been in the same situation won't understand
someone who would understand that might drag you down more
i feel like it's better to have someone who is able to distract you good enough
i added this to my never ending long long list
at this point I'll die before watching all animes but this fact makes me happy
i forgot you were a bookworm
First year I couldn't go up stairs, take a shower, do absolutely anything without thinking I'm about to die any moment
Went to the ER about 10 times within few months because I thought I was having a heart attack while it was just a panic attack, which I never had before
As of this year I am better, can actually function relatively normally but I still can't really go anywhere alone, can barely get myself to drive which I enjoyed before
And it's not as simple as "oh just don't think about it", the anxiety is so bad that it actually causes skipped heart beats and arrythmias
Only those who have experienced it will know how bad it actually is
I've went through similar experiences before, but not rough enough to this extend
I was always in more control
lol
xD
lmao
this guy... just slamming this image in here
small surprises for BM
small innocent surprises
that he'll remember during panic attacks
it is funny lol
I love it when I have a meme that relates to the convo, I have nothing else to add really ๐ฆ
yea because a panic attack is kind of the opposite
I have anxiety, and possibly had a panic attack/dehydration where I was losing vision, but probably not to the extent BM says
panic attack is 100% something an individual can defeat though, unlike other severe mental issues
I'm living example of this
its genetic from my parents
we all managed it
idk if you can defeat it
you can
you can get used to it and get some "fuck it" mentallity about it
nope
not sure if thats healthy tho
@zinc matrixTo add to this... I have a friend who I used to hang out often, I bought her a birthday present on her birthday and now after over a year later I still haven't given it to her, it's still sitting on my desk
And it's someone I wanna go out with but can't, we still talk but yeah...
because thats how i deal with them often...
one day i might have a stroke and think "fuck it, just another panic attack"
just like any other mental disorder, even schizophrenia it can be defeated with proper usage of medicines to get over the rough experiences and therapy (ACT or CBT) to completely remove it from your life
for some its easier to get over anxiety/etc issues, but for others where its more serious, it can be really really difficult to overcome
my mother is still suffering from panic attack and her attitude towards this is same as you
and she is doing wrong
haven't had it in a while, I learned to kinda recognize it and stop it before it fully takes over
she's taking the easy route
the more you try to control you'll get worse
gotta accept you're living it and make peace with it as first steps
at least can stop it now before it gets to the "ER visit" level of bad
these sound like lame advices anyone can give but thats what you go through at therapy no matter what situation you are in if your case is panic attack
isnt that pretty much the same as just getting the whatever attitude towards it?
i'm just worried that one day my mind wont be quick enough to come up with the "whatever" and that the panic attack takes over -_-
"whatever" != "I'm having a panic attack and I might experience disturbing feelings for a while, but this is just a survival mechanism my brain is simulating and it'll stop if I take it easy"
that's what i meant by "fuck it" mentallity before
being aware of what happens, and that it will end
yep then you're doing great congrats ๐ฅณ
if it really does or you are falling for the devil is another question... xD
for me it's because I didn't just fall and black out
I was like 2 minutes without vision or hearing but still conscious before I finally woke up on the floor, if it didn't take that long maybe it wouldn't have done as much damage to my mental state as it did
It also didn't help that at ER they raised so much panic (they thought I was having a heart attack or something) just to at the end tell me that everything is actually fine and the whole thing was harmless
My anxiety showed up after that ER visit, after they raised so much panic
idk, i feel like this wont help me much, the panic attacks had their reasons, and accepting them feels like accepting a bad fate
this is the part where you should talk this with your therapist
worked for me, cant recommend enough
yea they havent been exactly helpful
i've seen 6 therapist, one of them asked me "how can I help you" after 5th session, and I was like "wtf, you should tell me that"
other one tried to make me believe I am just doing fine
you gotta find the best one for you
well they gave me meds which solved some issues for a while, then they told me that i take the meds too often, and i reduced and noticed how they turn me into "someone else"
Full blown panic attacks are pretty damn scary, my heart rate goes to like 190
