Oh fun fact, there's an audio easter egg in this video. Hint, its not the obvious one

https://youtu.be/Lg-Ctg6k_Ao?si=7M-3QrKVpoXjf7oq

Idk if you know about this but I was like wtf when i realised it

Get a sneak peek at the next chapter of the Mass Effect universe. A veteran team at BioWare is in the early stages of what is on the horizon for the Mass Effect franchise, and we are excited to show you where we’ll be heading next!

You're too good. Suspiciously good

Just give him a captcha to solve

#

They're so hard even actual humans fail

(this was a joke)

broken sigil
# empty dune They're so hard even actual humans fail

I spent 20 minutes trying to get into my Epic account the other day lol

It's says click on cars or whatever, all are ai generated, but it looks like the damn captcha itself has no clue which one is supposed to be a car so it keeps giving me errors even tho I clicked on the only car that was there

empty dune
#

Uh huh, @zinc wagon call the rogue ai suppression team, we found another one

proud jay
#

anyone have any cool ideas for a cutting board?

#

need to come up with something for woodworking class

empty dune
proud jay
#

like cool shapes or something

empty dune
#

Oh

#

Hmm

proud jay
#

some dudes made fish shape for example

empty dune
#

SpongeBob?

#

Idk thats what appeared in my head first

proud jay
#

my life is potato

proud jay
unreal ether
#

making a cutting board shaped cutting board

#

truly revolutionary

proud jay
#

now this is 100% brain power

empty dune
#

I can confirm, i am brain dead

unreal ether
#

Make one in the shape of a slice of bread 🍞

ivory lodge
#

@empty duneYou know, I'm still not using the Enhanced input.

ivory lodge
#

I just haven't had time to learn it.

nova swallow
empty dune
#

There's nothing to learn really

#

Its just the setup is slightly more involved

#

As in you create two new files

#

That's it

nova swallow
#

Like the container would be attached to the cuttingboard somehow and be lifted to remove

proud jay
#

like in existing cutting boards

nova swallow
#

I just have plain flat cutting boards so I have no idea what's out there on the market 🤷🏻‍♂️

proud jay
#

gonna make an amogus board

#

where the face of the character is a hole

zinc wagon
empty dune
nova swallow
# proud jay that could just be a hole

But then you have to flip the entire cuttingboard, I was imagining a smaller wooden box so you don't have to do that. I suppose it still holds little to no extra value but depending on the size a wooden cuttingboard can get pretty heavy

#

Ask BM's Deja for ideas

proud jay
#

a rocket could also be cool

empty dune
#

If you are doing this first time and want a challenge, making an oval hole with smooth edge falloff is actually decently hard. Id go with that amogus board if that's the case

proud jay
#

idk what you mean with smooth edge falloff

empty dune
#

I forgot the term for it

nova swallow
#

Bevelled?

empty dune
#

Yes!

#

Bevel

proud jay
#

well I'm not gonna freehand bevels

#

you make a mould for it first

empty dune
#

A mould..... For wood

#

Okay

#

Trees are fluid yes yes

proud jay
#

a mould for your router

#

lol

empty dune
#

Did you find the easter egg?

proud jay
#

it's not easter yet

empty dune
#

Yeah I've seen this before. This is the stupid timeline and i hate it

#

Huh? Wdym

zinc wagon
#

Boulders gate does that too

empty dune
#

I don't get it

zinc wagon
#

They got a room full of naked men who's only purpose is to talk in cutscenes

#

Pebble door ftw

empty dune
#

I still have no idea what you two mean. Are you saying like instead of ambient audio they literally just made invisible characters to run the audio off of?

#

The fuck

#

Okay

zinc wagon
proud jay

#

Oh i haven't gotten that far lol, i stopped about 10 hours into the game and never touched it

I paid full price for this..... Even pre-ordered it.....

#

Please kill me

median wraith
#

Sorry man

#

next time get indie games

zinc wagon
#

Sure just a sec

empty dune
#

For context, that value amounts to about 5$

median wraith
#

Hunt Showdown Skins cost more

#

Skins in Hunt still cost more

empty dune
proud jay
#

well, that's on you

#

you could've not preordered

median wraith
#

This game, is the perfect example, of how you can make a good game with all the contents you want, but fak it at launch

proud jay
#

or refunded in the first 2 hours

empty dune
proud jay
#

they still have refund policy

empty dune
#

I don't think they had auto refund back when bf2042 came out

#

You had to mail them iirc

#

And i was too pissed off to do it

proud jay
#

they do have it now

#

idk on release

empty dune
#

Yes now they do

proud jay
#

well lesson learned

I have never in my life even seen a bagel

That's a donut

proud jay
#

well I meant IRL

#

why tf do rider settings apply to project level by default

#

pls

#

why they make me enable format on save for every project

zinc wagon
proud jay
#

I mean just for code editing it's good, but the whole IDE around it really could use some QoL

#

oh it's just naked dudes there as placeholders for voices in character creation

#

no spoilers

zinc wagon
#

No spoilers btw. Just a behind the scenes secret

proud jay
#

cause they need an entity to play the sample voice line

#

idk if impossible

#

but it was the easiest way I guess

empty dune
#

@chrome gull i found something that can help you better than your college

chrome gull
#

lost a rather well paying gig cuz of that lmao

empty dune
#

No job for you then

#

Oh wow, i didn't expect that joke to actually be a real life event

chrome gull
#

it's okay I am questioning every single decision I have made in my entire life rn

#

why is everything so much work

fathom wadi
#

could be worse. My family is 7 is being evicted in 10 days through no fault of our own. But that could be worse too. Could be one of the 2 million people being starved out of the Gaza strip. Everything is relative and your issues matter, but take solace in the fact it could be worse and you have solutions waiting.

chrome gull
#

wow

#

I am sorry that's happening to you

#

and ofc for gaza too

#

I am pretty burned out, that's all

fathom wadi
#

Yeah been there many times. You been working with Unreal too much?

chrome gull
#

not really, no

#

haven't open the engine in a week

#

I finished setting up all of the mechanics part of my game

#

now it's all creative stuff for me

#

writing, level design, map drawing, etc etc

#

I can't progress without these and I cannot seem to do them

#

don't get me wrong, this is what I want to do in life

fathom wadi
#

Then you can do it. You can do anything you truly want to do

chrome gull
#

it's me vs everything ig

chrome gull
#

I've never slept so much in my entire life

fathom wadi
#

sure is. Hard work is no joke. But it comes with the best pay off

chrome gull
#

it's a gamble for me tbh

#

I allocated 6 months of time to create a demo

#

then there's apparently college (which is useless but drains all of my energy and time)

#

and of course, my dear mental health issues

fathom wadi
#

why is it a gamble ? Do you expect to fail or expect to not get the result you intend?

fathom wadi
#

What is the result you intend?

chrome gull
#

tbf I did get pretty far with an awful, awful demo

#

that didn't even showcase 30% of the game's ideas

#

attended meetings with VCs and all

fathom wadi
#

Getting funding for a game is easy if the game is good. You shouldn't be worried about that if you have faith in the game itself

fathom wadi
#

not when you are looking for funding it's not. It's the entire basis of getting it

chrome gull
#

yes thank you, took me a while to get here

chrome gull
#

ofc

#

but I don't fully expect it to happen for some reason

fathom wadi
#

If you have the vertical slice that shows the game is good, and you do the projections for the returns at the worst, mid and best case scenarios, with all the budgeting and tasks to finish the game, then any person who puts money forward to game ideas will be able to see your vision and the faith part will be secured.

chrome gull
#

I am in stage 1 rn and so far it plays good

chrome gull
#

I'll get to the documentation and business stuff when nearing the end of the development of the slice

fathom wadi
#

The fact you have got to the point you have shows you are moving towards success. Many people just have the idea and never go beyond stage 0.00001. The finish line might be still 6 months away, or a year, or two. But as long as you move towards success then it will align with success. The only failure in game development is not finishing.

chrome gull
#

what if I am not able to finish it?

#

the last month of the production timeline will rely on skills that I simply don't have

#

I'll need to get other people, but how? I have no money and there's no way I can deal with volunteers again (I did it 6 years ago, when I was a literal kid but still)

fathom wadi
#

if you know you are not able to finish, then you don't have anything left to do but move on to something else. It's only the completion that matters. Anything else is just studying. If you are ok with going so far that you have learned enough to complete a more obtainable project, then you are still gaining something, but you have to know where the finish line is. It's either in completion or resolution.

chrome gull
#

that makes sense

#

I don't know what to do after all this

#

if it succeeds, then great, everything is in motion

#

if it doesn't? I have no idea what to do, where to go, etc

unreal ether
#

if ti doesn't succeed, providing it isn't an awful game, you've got a great portfolio piece that will make you more hirable

fathom wadi
#

If you have done so much work that you have a vertical slice, documentation, etc, but you cannot finish it, then it's a portfolio piece for getting a job. Work with others to finish something.

chrome gull
#

and I am fully prepared to accept the fact that it will fail, but not at all prepared for any action to do

unreal ether
#

you're never going to finish it if you keep drowning in the what-ifs

chrome gull
#

it'd make an incredible portfolio piece

chrome gull
unreal ether
#

just get stuck in. If you don't care for marketing it and such, and if it's a big concern, then don't. It has way less chance of selling, but again, recruiters eat that stuff up :D

unreal ether
#

you'll never finish it if you do

chrome gull
#

I am prone to overthinking

fathom wadi
#

You are doing something that most people in the world cannot do. Look at all the game developers who ever existed. Less than 0.00001% have completed a full game on their own. You can do it, but most people don't have the stamina or convince themself into failure or simply burnout and don't have the mental strength or capacity to continue. So I woudl say preserve your motivation. If you have faith in the product, if you know you can get enough done to convince people to fund it, if you can see the finished product in your mind and know what to do to get there, keep doing it at all cost. Hard work is hard because you have to fight for it. You have to beat your own mind into finishing it. You can do it if you want to. But you have to truly want to.

chrome gull
#

sometimes I wonder if what I want to do is too ambitious but then a version (a basic one) of it already exists and is fully functional

#

so there's no way it's impossible, right?

unreal ether
#

Don't let the allure of success drive your development. Let your passion for the game drive it.

That way if it fails it's not a disappointment. Any success is a bonus, and you have a great portfolio elemement and discussion piece for getting into the industry

chrome gull
#

I'm already 1 month into the 6 months and it's been going well so far

#

can't let a single roadblock stop everything, can I?

unreal ether
#

you'll find if you work solely off your passion to see the end product, then a lot of other things fall in line. You'll naturally find youself leaning to market it, telling people about it, because you're proud of it

unreal ether
fathom wadi
#

One tip I will give that sounds cliche but absolutely works.
Last thing at night, write down what you are doing the next day. Physically write/type it out. Then think about it before you sleep. Then when you wake up, start working on the list. You don't have to finish everything that day, just revise the list for the day after.
Do this consistently every day and you will finish before you realise it's done.

chrome gull
#

I know they will love it

chrome gull
fathom wadi
#

then why are you here? Get on with the list. Time is fleeting 😉 You can do it.

chrome gull
#

in my final commit before I wrap up for the day, I list out all the things I have planned for the next day

chrome gull
#

the world that I want to make is supposed to be cheerful and optimistic but everything I seem to come up with is depressing and bleak

#

the tone is all over the place

fathom wadi
#

You do, its just hindered right now by emotional blackmail. Your mind is tired and is convincing you of the worst case scenarios. Your mind doesn't dictate this. Your physical actions do. You can force your mind to play along. You just have to physically continue.

chrome gull
#

you're right

thanks for helping me out, both of you

this meant a lot

They provide a key from HB with a discount

since when the discounts apply post TAX ?

Fact is I don't pay taxes due the ROI registered number on this cases

but when I put it is ignored

so its like a double jk time

Problem is the discount is 9.70€ and the product is 9.69€ they make me pay 2€ at the check

#

despite that VAT should be excluded because the listed fact

slim atlas

ok

median wraith
#

Epic in other hand removes the VAT for EU at the checkin

but they don't provide the data about it...

#

Also Unity does, but for some reason now Unity target Los Angeles as HQ for EU

median wraith

Their version on the web list 4.25

There are some creators that totally removed the versions you paid for 4.X

and force you to use 5.X, I don't know if that's legal

but they don't let you download it anymore

Cheers , I know why companies incorporate in Switzerland. Simply because its a good way to not have to pay the tax in the country of sale which is generally far higher than in Switzerland. Bean counters may advise this type of thing but the more banks, and large corporate entities do it while countries all over the world like Greece and the UK e...

#

There is a big talk there

#

The issue is if both companies are in the EU trading list, VAT is canceled, but right now VAT is canceled only for Epic, clients have to pay themselves

#

Except if the client isn't a company, in that case the VAT is charged by Epic and idk how they report that

unborn lotus
#

Vat stuff is the most confusing thing ever 😆

median wraith
#

and sad because you end paying by duplicated since some companies don't want todo the correct way

unborn lotus
#

And accountants are confused, I paid twice too. Its simpler since I dont pay vat on my firm but I still have a vat number. Going to a vat paying firm is insanely xomplicated here lol

median wraith
#

You don't pay VAT ?

#

Here we got a form for each quarter

unborn lotus
#

I mean if I buy stuff from EU (monthly), but no vat on my services

median wraith
#

So if you paid the VAT for something that VAT will be listed as money the government owe you
If the VAT is european by both companies then that's canceled in the aire don't affect anything.
If the VAT is like this ones were isn't listed correctly, is calculated in the form and you will have to pay it

unborn lotus
#

We have a "micro" firm tax regime and no vat

unborn lotus
median wraith
#

Technically is reversed charge

#

so you don't have to

#

the problem comes to the costumers that are companies

In 10 years when I look back at this "GDD" I'm making, I'm probably going to be very annoyed that I put the word "...duh" in it to explain this thing. It is very obvious, but I'm sure it'll annoy me in 10yrs when I'm a super-rich highly professional game developer...

What do you use to run the unhinged model and which unhinged model are you using?

Kinda wanna try the unhinged model, I only messed with the original llama2 weights that meta released

Yeah all of those are llama2 based, just different "checkpoints", custom trained

I just used the original official weights

Fun to mess around with

Ok nice, ty

Should be able to run q8 20B with 24GB of vram

@unborn lotus me bad, in the VAT declaration the VAT from the yesterday purchases is negative, but you don't end paying it because self cancel in the next form area 😅

youve never seen pacific rim have you?

proud jay

I don't think that affects my judgement of the soundtrack

it does

that soundtrack is coupled with the film

We pay already a 30% so

proud jay

you really havent seen pacific rim 😂

proud jay

that's what I said yes

why would I lie about it

no that was more of a "oh you sweet summer child" than a "you lied"

proud jay
#

I'm not really into the sea monster fighting giant robots kinda genre

unborn lotus
empty dune
#

its a del toro film. which means that unless youve seen the film, its a "why the fuck would i ever want to watch that??"

Exhibit A: Shape of Water

proud jay
#

yeah I've seen parts of it

#

I regret it whole heartidly

#

idk why you think that would be a good argument for me to watch this

empty dune
#

im not telling you to watch it lol

#

im just saying its the "this concept is really fucking weird why does it exist?" genre but somehow del toro makes it work

#

its.....just that guy specific effect

#

idk how but i absolutely despised shape of water from the brief moments i saw it when it released

unborn lotus
#

the david lynch effect

dusky bobcat
#

But why shape of water got the academy award? I totally don't understand

empty dune
#

years later i watched it in full and went......huh, not bad

dusky bobcat
#

It was a terrible movie

proud jay
#

raindust just enjoys bad movies

empty dune
#

i think it was like death stranding, really polarising. you either love it or you hate it

empty dune
#

and even if i do, its 1-2 a year

proud jay
#

well if this is the kind of things you watch, I'd also stop watching movies

dusky bobcat
#

Guess I just don't like del toro, lol

empty dune
#

i loved death stranding for example

timber viper
empty dune
#

the mechanics, absolutely not

#

the mechanics were garbage

#

but the rest of the package was pretty cool to me

dusky bobcat
#

I can't play a walk simulation although other of the game looks decent...

proud jay
#

but I really should continue at some point though

timber viper
#

Mini boss before reaching the shipyard definitely wasnt a walking simulator 😹

dusky bobcat
#

Well, I don't say it has no other gameplay but 90% of time is a walk simulation.

proud jay
#

clearly you didn't get to the point where you get a bike

empty dune
#

it was a strange "looking into a mirror" kind of thing for me. in death stranding you make ridiculous boring slogs to trek from one pointless place to another. And once youve done it, you can spend more pointless time to make bridges and roads for the rest of the players. It gives you nothing. Absolutely nothing. The only reason you'd do it was if you wanted to spare someone else that horrible slog

That feeling clicked with me and i really think it was an intended meta mechanic. Think the end of nier automata where you ||sacrifice your progress to help a random person's playthrough||

#

||its the thought that counts||

dusky bobcat
#

I don't like nier automata either.

empty dune
#

||sentiments laura, sentiments||

dusky bobcat
#

The whole game😅

#

Am I a hater?

empty dune
#

nah, its another of those polarising games

proud jay
#

is that the game @timber viper is playing?

pearl elk
#

I didnt like Die-Hardman

timber viper
dusky bobcat
#

The combat of nier has nothing more than bayonetta, and the character design was very...poor. For the android robots.

timber viper
#

after two months started to play again then quit after realizing I forgot the controls

dusky bobcat
proud jay
#

is it because you're straight? or because you're a girl?

#

wo long looks like strange sekiro

empty dune
#

im guessing you didnt go try to go for the full 26 ending run? i think the minimum to "complete" the story is 3 endings. or was it 5?

#

but yeah

dusky bobcat
#

wo long is actually a simplified Nioh

empty dune
#

some are game overs

#

some do reveal smol story bits

#

the funniest one was when you eat a fish and die

#

im not gonna spoiler it, thats just the joke ending

timber viper
#

I beat a boss in nier, then head to the underground where ||two weird dudes fight with me and 9b||, but they were 10x more powerful, and last save was already in underground with no exit to level up and come back. I had no idea what to do and quit

proud jay
#

is it like part of the story that you have to complete 3 endings

#

cause that seems strange

timber viper
#

then reverted back to a past save, tried to kill tons of robots, did side quests, still incompetent af against them

#

idk wtf game wants from me

#

stupid game designers

proud jay
#

having to play the same thing multible times

timber viper
#

i hate when game causes indirections like this

empty dune
proud jay
#

but like a lot of new things?

#

or like ng+ kinda things

#

allright

#

otherwise would be really boring

dusky bobcat
#

It is exactly armored core 6 did, lol

#

You have to finish thrice to get all the stories.

proud jay
#

ngl, I would definitely give up after once

#

or even before finishing once quite likely

#

I only finish games that I really like

dusky bobcat
proud jay
#

no

#

I wanna continue it though

timber viper
proud jay
#

I just got annoyed with 2 shit encounters after another

#

first ||balthazar|| was a pain in the ass, and then you want to enter ||moonrise tower|| and there's like a fight with 15 dudes again

dusky bobcat
proud jay
#

but I noticed you can get around it through the kitchen

#

but haven't tried yet

timber viper

and its after 90 hours or so

first 90 hours is amazing, up to 60fps on ultra

then suddenly drops to 15

also why are the boxes so wide

it's self calibrating based on how well you do

I mean you know whats text to speech right

what does visual deficiency mean?

@sand oxide @proud jay what monitor resolution you have ?

median wraith
proud jay
#

15 inch

pearl elk
#

1777x144

moving it to the 43 inch 3840x2160 makes it readable though

#

This reminds me of the modern youtube tutorials at 4K

#

on my monitor

#

yeah that's a bit bigger than mine, good to know

pearl elk
#

are you saying your accessibility menu screenshot needs an accessibility menu?

median wraith
#

The thing is mine have only 2 pages

#

the rest is calibrated based on that

#

Better than the games I see from Activison etc with 30 options at start menu

I think we should just put implants in peoples eyes so we can scan all their needs directly 😛

#

@proud jay for you

#

the default one goes

#

change the binding later

proud jay
#

there is indeed a difference between the ansi and iso layout

#

but I use matrix layout

#

I just switch to a qwerty layer when gaming though

median wraith
#

Well this is just for the controls calibration

#

later set whatever you want

pearl elk
#

my keyboard has RGB, I feel like I need representation

median wraith
#

It covers Razer Chroma, Alienware AlienFX, Logitech G

pearl elk
#

you can call me Australien

median wraith
#

either works to cover different colors

#

just for whole keyboard so

#

I'm not EA

#

The good part of those is the app with the mouse comes already with the layout

#

so the dev don't do it

#

But nice that this thing show the game, didn't knew

#

🤣

#

idk where is that set if I'm honest

#

their plugin don't looks anything better

proud jay
#

I don't have RGB, but I do have 2 small oled screens on my keyboard

#

do you support those?

median wraith
#

no

proud jay
#

very sad

median wraith
#

they split the products

proud jay
#

I split my keyboard

median wraith
#

This reminds me of the Discord API SDK

proud jay
#

why lol

#

the manga?

median wraith
#

Had the rich presence working, they removed it then and made the Discord SDK, then they removed the SDK because they removed the store, now only rich presence works

I meant why it reminds of discord api
