Yes i dont know why the mesh flips 180 degress when it finishes playing
Maybe because its root motion and the mesh rotates in it idk

Fix this further down the development line - 13-14 seconds - The final step on to the ground needs to be refined.
Slightly more urgent fix - 27th second - The left foot clips through the ladder.
Nicely done. 👍
Now, we need a proper looking human/alien, proper textures, nicer lighting, you know, the works. Get to work...

It's more that the left leg is swinging to the right a bit too much at 27th second.

idk if i should try to use root motion for each step so the hands are perfectly aligned on the ladder

It'll get noticed by annoying players as they play the game.
So, keep a note of it for later fixes.

Also, I bet the problem will be more pronounced after you add textures.

That dumb comment is not entirely wrong in terms of vision. It's what UE is ultimately envisioning. An engine where no one needs to know programming.
The utopia where you can make any game you want without any coding skills.

On the first day, I issued 1 proper ticket and 6 wrong ones.
On the second day, I've used over 8 tickets correctly and 0 wrong ones.
Yay for police improvement!

You can do everything, quite literally.
There are main objectives that you ought to follow - such as issuing parking tickets - depending on the shift on that day.
But, you also get callouts and stuff.

Epic builds the dlls from plugins for the engines, right?

On the other hand, we're letting even more people play Fortnite. Not sure which is worse.

What do you mean then they can spend more money on it and we get new UE features
If and when
agile leaf
What do you mean then they can spend more money on it and we get new UE features
What a difference that made, UE was a much better product before Epic started allowing Fortnite to dictate the development course.
mild gust
Just gotta give them a few more decades 😂

Then you have this other case where users bash Apple but praise Valve, even though both are using the same predatory business practices.
What a stupid world we live in nowadays.
mild gust
Feel it's more about lesser evils nowadays.
agile leaf
Yeah but the cut they take from developers is exactly the same, no lesser evils there.

As I said, what a stupid world we live in nowadays.

except steam don't prevent you from using other stores, or take a cut of revenue generated outside of steam
30% is a lot, but not what made Apple so scummy
mild gust
Steam also provides more services to justify their cut than apple imo.
Apples just greedy imo
unreal ether
yeah, say what you want about the cut but at least it's a platform that's good to use on both ends
mild gust
At least steam also seems to prioritize the user in most cases so gamers are not being shafted "as much".
unreal ether
granted, Epic's new revshare policy is great, but at the same time it's EGL so ehhhhh

Like telling developers they can't put ads in their desktop games
What a great feature
Yet Apple store doesn't care and mobile games are littered with ads
To the point it's unavoidable in most cases

It would be fun if we needed Unreal ™️ amounts of money to use the engine in the future. 🤣
But, no. Epic's winning big at the moment. UE is being adopted everywhere. Even that manufacturing company - SAS (or something) - used UE for an actual, physical manufacturing project.
We indie devs will be fine.
Although, there'll be MOAR features added that make the UI unusable for anyone without a brain chip.

So
Ps4 and xbox one has hardware limitations that caused 7 days to die and greenhell to stop receiving updates that the series X and ps4 get, along with pc
mild gust
Yeah because they don't have enough memory no?
To handle the new level generation or w.e they added
"Allegedly"
errant raven
Meanwhile ps4 can handle much much more intensive games... does hardware limitation code for we suck at optimizing so well just use consoles with better hardware to mask that
Greenhell has always ran like shit
mild gust
Not sure that's a good thing
errant raven
There's something about survival games that always cause them to run poorly the longer the saves been played
mild gust
Probably the procedural generation?
mild gust
You mean to tell me they didn't use anything procedural to generate anything on that map.
errant raven
However that is a problem with 7 days to die random gen map
mild gust
When so much of it is seen floating lol
errant raven
Trees, plants, animals. Yes
mild gust
Just because it's not based on a seed or generated every play through
Doesn't make it not procedural
They most definitely didn't place every tree
errant raven
It only generates new stuff if you leave the chunk or sleep
mild gust
@summer cedar Are you ready to wield the sword?
mild gust
It only generates new stuff if you leave the chunk or sleep
It should be more like Runescape Dragonwilds
Just cut stumps and nothing comes back
errant raven
Generation isn't even the problem
mild gust
Why not
mild gust
What
errant raven
I can easily find the direction of my base from very far away because it starts lagging like crazy when I look in the direction of the fire pit . distance doesn't seem to matter which means its rendering that chunk constantly even when not visible
mild gust
Which we all know is baaad
errant raven
7 days to die looks like a much different game on pc tho
Good look it looks amazing on pc
errant raven
They should optimize and let modders make new content
errant raven
How many people on pc play games without modding
mild gust
That makes it tolerable
mild gust
How many people on pc play games without modding
Too many
errant raven
Especially given how easy steam makes modding
mild gust
Some games disable stuff like achievements now if you mod
Because "cheaters"
Even if it's just some silly survival game
errant raven
Who really cares about achievements
mild gust
Apparently some people
errant raven
Most games these days have shit achievements
mild gust
Bring back the days of gears of war achievements
errant raven
You just play the game casually and you can get all achievements
Till this day I haven't unlocked the kill 1,000,000 locusts achievement
Or was it 100,000
mild gust
Probably both
One on a different game
There was this one too, https://www.xboxachievements.com/game/gears-of-war-2/achievement/18123-party-like-its-1999.html
So much so people made a guide to cheeseball the achievement
errant raven
It's the chapter where you're riding on the thingy that dizzy is driving
Don't need a guide, just common sense. The one chapter where a fuck ton of locust spawn that are actually killable

"I should make this a plugin so I can easily port it to my actual game"
Made it a plugin, now it takes like 45 seconds to port to a new project!
Add a mass entity, put my fragments on it, automagically works
tulip orbit
Yup, I did that with my inventory system and my map gen system. Tho neither are setup as well as they could be for seamless integration, both require some setup
but still, sooo much easier
mild gust
Map gen 😮
tulip orbit
yeah, its nice but it has a loot of issues and limitations, things I havent figured out yet
sad thing is, I was looking thru an older project, and it felt more complete and closer to being a game than any project I've done since.... and the art for the map I think was nicer...
makes me sad 😦
woven wing
Gamejams op
You get to make a whole game
And because your challenge is "finish this in X time" instead of "figure out how to build something"
You get the dopamine when you finish, instead of like "ahh, all of my systems work now, time to quit"
tulip orbit
for me its "ok the base systems are in place.... now what?" then get hit with depression and distract myself with a purchased game for a while, then start a new project
mild gust
I've probably started over 200+ projects now and had maybe 3 finished playable projects
tulip orbit
I havent started that many actual projects, but probably around 10? One got playable but needed lots of work. Only thing I've "finished" was a flappy bird clone as a test
