Of all the dumb rules UE has.... 🤦‍♂️

Cannot import a file of the same name even if the extension is different. 😒

[brittle holly]

I mean just change the name lol

Pressing F2 can’t be that difficult 🙂

[summer cedar]

You press it then. Fly over here. 😛

[brittle holly]

Too broke to fly across continents lol

[median wraith]

I use Github to download the source and make PR and such

it's the only way to get the sources

[median wraith]

I mean there is only one extension in engine

[summer cedar]

What do you mean?

[median wraith]

all extensions turn into the same

so you cannot have more than one file named alike

[summer cedar]

Oh, you mean .png, .jpg all get renamed into just one extension by the engine in the end?

[median wraith]

you ever checked the files?

everything is .uasset

isn't like Unity

[soft night]

so its not like .hasset

Well, I am glad I am not the only one.

This has been a fun devving session.

@mild gust That same damn issue again. 😄

[mild gust]

Again and again

At least theres a video now.

[summer cedar]

Copying the dotnet library files fixes it.

Yeah. Now, I have to deal with the texture problem. 😄

[mild gust]

Also imagine using baked lighting in ue5.

Just use ue4 lmao.

[warm bloom]

I saw some epic employee say it wasn't intended and swarm is going to be added back

[mild gust]

Ah makes sense

Swarm is good!

[summer cedar]

Yeah, it was clearly a mistake.

Oh well.

Meanwhile, an obviously SIMPLE cloner job is proving to a PITA.

Lucifer, I blame you, 'cuz reasons.

[mild gust]

Good

You should always blame others for your problems

Your learning well

[summer cedar]

Indeed. I should also use orange ™️ vocabulary while doing so.

[mild gust]

Make sure to not use big words

He wouldn't use vocabulary

Too many syllables

[median wraith]

has been reported

[summer cedar]

Yay! Crashing editor repeatedly.

[median wraith]

Someone commented a line by december

and removed the dlls inclussion

[summer cedar]

Will be fixed in 2030.

[mild gust]

You said the issue was in a project?

[median wraith]

I'm doing sponges today

[mild gust]

Chill

[summer cedar]

me, or him?

[mild gust]

You

[summer cedar]

I thought that before.
Turns out it's missing swarm files in the engine itself.

You have to copy the 5.5 dotnet folder to 5.6. and presto!

[mild gust]

No like

If you enable lumen on the project

It would then rely on dynamic lighting not the baked

So swarm issue would be null

[summer cedar]

Yeah, but I didn't disable lumen.
I just copied the dlls as indicated and switched the light to stationary.

I don't need dynamic at the moment, so.

[mild gust]

Rationary 😮

[summer cedar]

Missionary

[summer cedar]

Problems solved. Everything works as intended. 🙂

Sadly, not as much progress as I'd have wished. Quite a bit of time wasted fixing those two problems.

[mild gust]

But it ones step closer to the final product

That's whats important

[summer cedar]

Heh. I am an old monster, remember?

I need to work fast and sleep on time. 😄

[mild gust]

Gotta adopt the Japanese culture phenomenon of inemuri

[summer cedar]

Lol. 🤣 I just found something funny with the cloner texture. You have to set the texture offset to -0.01, or it repeats the texture to one side VERY SLIGHTLY.

👀 Better solution: texture scale 0.999.

[white oxide]

I have spoiled my cat even more

got a trout and cut it up for cat treats

then air fried to give it more texture, and last longer

[summer cedar]

Remember to bill the cat.

[white oxide]

lol

[summer cedar]

And charge extra for tips.

[white oxide]

this cat has it made

also i did this because the #1 cause of cat death is kidney failure brought on by a lifetime of dry cat food

so he regularly gets proper meat, cans of cat food, and general treats

plus obviously the daily supply of dry kibble

[summer cedar]

@mild gust Cool, huh? 🙂

[mild gust]

Found this from youtube

then found one that looked cool

💀

500€ for an individual license

[mild gust]

But it's quality

[median wraith]

it cost more the studio license than the person that did 2 fully AAA quality characters in a month

[mild gust]

Looks like it even has realistic eyes

[median wraith]

2500€ for studio license

[mild gust]

Just make a bunch of metahumans and sell those to fund it

[median wraith]

First time I see this website tbh

but the models are top tier

[mild gust]

How much is startup price

Do they use groom?

around events of book and tv show

seems also its tacitcal cover shooter

[cursive crypt]

hmm... I guess, I'm getting old and bitter. These first 2 games were some over exaggerated slop, reused modern mechanics, flashy presentation, zero talent - just mainstream product.

well that was the most original one so far, lol

that dude hair don't fit he XD

it feels like is bald with the Bob Ross hair

[cursive crypt]

lol
In the stream, there was one dude all in tattoos talking about it.

[median wraith]

Well everyone have tattoos this days, the point was more of that character in game, feels strange

I don't have tattoos what technically makes me now the foil?

In Spain more than 55% have tattoos they said

[cursive crypt]

Aah, I saw who you are talking about.

Yea, tats are modern nowadays. Easily accessible.

[cursive crypt]

Real tech artists are badass looking, tattoos, eyeglasses and piercings. Buffed with muscles.

[median wraith]

welp, almost xd

I think the problem now is there are a lot of games everywhere

cannot notice them all

lost a lot of cool titles there

and is sad

as always promoted ones are the only ones getting spotlight and sales

[warm bloom]

idk every once in awhile I try those games I judge the book by the cover on

and most of the time they've been worse than I expected

[soft night]

https://tenor.com/view/evan-almighty-noahs-ark-white-hair-white-long-hair-hi-gif-3462972

[cursive crypt]

When selling is more well worked on than the actual product.

[warm bloom]

hark the ghoul looks kinda good

reminds me of fly knight a bit

[cursive crypt]

Absolutely, it becomes harder to filter all that info. There are like hundred games released per day? We need an AI to help us find what we like or may like.

[median wraith]

In a creative world, the worst you can do is follow all the gurus* pro tips*

[median wraith]

🫵

I just point the couple ones that liked it

I don't even follow what I write

Don't even remember what ate yesterday

[soft night]

using your own articles and find how much you have learned

[median wraith]

Sadly even the AI filter by fav articles

[cursive crypt]

Is there even one

[median wraith]

That's true and when you open old projects

Metal Gear S what?

[cursive crypt]

Not really, but is a solid series. This one is also pretty good from what I have seen. Wasnt it where ice cubes were melting even lol

[median wraith]

oh yeah the Solid

I'm more into soft bodies

[warm bloom]

wow a $50 gift card

[median wraith]

<@&213101288538374145>

[warm bloom]

I might've done it for $100

[cursive crypt]

Right click, Applications, Report to Mods.

[median wraith]

wait what

I'm on phone

[cursive crypt]

Not iphone I hope

[warm bloom]

hold down on message -> apps -> report to mods

[median wraith]

if I do will open me the link for sure

XD

[warm bloom]

discords pretty good at warning you about opening links

idk if you can disable it

[cursive crypt]

You can "trust" certain domains.

No, longer warned about them.

[median wraith]

What this even mean!

[median wraith]

best feature in an app it's Instagram thar whatever you write wrongly any dot between words will look for the most alike website and paste it lol

[soft night]

https://tenor.com/view/sonic-wait-what-whaat-surprised-gif-18590608

[median wraith]

wasn't that the scammer or so of some game?

🫠 I don't remember

[cursive crypt]

The app filter putting a smile on his face was pretty jarring.

lol

[median wraith]

ohhh the puzzles game

i do remember a lot of people hate to he on Twitter long ago

but unsure if was due the game or Politics or what

but is any different of notch?

I think were kinda alike complains to both

most of the people I finish following was because they got into drugs and started posting about that and or in combo with AI

[cursive crypt]

Well, this looks like mostly about A and AA titles which was not so bad. Also a hell lot of a UE5 games, devs advertise this like a some hot thing, lol.

[warm bloom]

yeah it's even weirder especially since theres a lot of unreal hate lately

[cursive crypt]

Yea, I have noticed that trend too. But I think it is mostly gamers. And mostly the average vocal group about all new trend. Tbh, apart from the streamers scoring on that hate train, it is kind of expected to worry about a company dominating a field. We need more engines in our lives. Competition is good.

[warm bloom]

I really wish bevy had a real editor

[cursive crypt]

jeez who is into blood, Crisol, Hev you may like the art direction if you are into exploring these.

https://video.fastly.steamstatic.com/store_trailers/257150654/movie480_vp9.webm?t=1749326972

that will not play on my phone

[cursive crypt]

Buy something expensive. Aren't there alienware phones.

[median wraith]

this one looks all black

pass the url

by the name tou said hope isn't the one I think it is

[median wraith]

XD

[cursive crypt]

I liked mostly how reloading and holding a gun draws your blood lol

[median wraith]

Is the one I thought it is

those called me to work for them once

[cursive crypt]

Oh, nice

[median wraith]

Welp

That game is getting all the money they can and getting promotion since 6 years ago or more

[soft night]

oh yeah seems english mixing there https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyXGm8JCBrk

[warm bloom]

this might be me only but I feel like a game centered around blood doesn't have the best looking blood visuals

[cursive crypt]

I suppose their debt grew a lot, lol

[median wraith]

Idk when that game will release or so

they do outsource to keep developing the game but

[cursive crypt]

hoo, system shock 2

[median wraith]

Call of the sea devs are cool so support them

the game isn't the kind lf style I play but thr graphics are lit

they are releasing 2 soon or announced it

[median wraith]

wait same devs?

[median wraith]

at the first remind me of that Call of Duty Advanced Warfare or the other I don't remember

[soft night]

the one article i found it reminds of mass effect

[cursive crypt]

Almost even the same game, lol

[median wraith]

oh

I got confused when them, they made the prototipe in Unity but then in Unreal but then came back to Unity?

or the final version was unreal?

[soft night]

so dark space https://youtu.be/P5c4wW1vdvQ

[summer cedar]

Good morning! 🌞 ☕

[summer cedar]

Whas'sup?

[mild gust]

Just got off work you

Now onto dev stuff

[summer cedar]

Teaching a kid.
Thinking about my animation.

I might work on the next chapter of my book first, though.

[mild gust]

While teaching?

[summer cedar]

not yet.

[median wraith]

Morning

[summer cedar]

How're ya?

[median wraith]

So, someone knows something about perlin worms ?

[median wraith]

Alive still, that's a win

[mild gust]

For voxel caves?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8mAN378kIw

[median wraith]

Well I need caves but in Blender

no voxels but yeah

[mild gust]

That talk may have useful info

Sure it's multi-engine

[median wraith]

just asked chatgpt

he created a script for blender x9 times to correct the thing he created

[soft night]

https://tenor.com/view/lab-gen-games-steam-logic-math-gif-12393182

[median wraith]

all the day tickets gone and turns out the script just created this shit

damm

[summer cedar]

Try Ludus

[mild gust]

Does it do blender

[summer cedar]

It could make a milkshake, sure.

[soft night]

https://tenor.com/view/chocolate-cake-shake-milkshake-chocolate-shake-gif-13355398936535231219

[cursive crypt]

So it is A* over perlin cost grid

[median wraith]

well id does nothing based on the logic of the bot

as don't have any vertex or anything to work with

[cursive crypt]

hmm.. if you draw some kind of volumetric material or use particle system you may start play around I suppose.

[median wraith]

I mean yeah you do

but the function it gaves goes nowhere whatever you plug it makes no sense as transform the whole thing

[cursive crypt]

I would have been surprised if it was able to handle blender graphs.

[median wraith]

not even asked for it

but the script to generate it and decided to give me a script to create the graph

No that we got native voxel rendering in engine

I'm wondering how much until Epic does the unified system for landscapes too

making the landscapes finally after 30 years 3D

[cursive crypt]

Doubt if soon, tho they may decide to add such feature, buy or implement.

[median wraith]

They actually had it on the roadmap once 5.0 was released

[cursive crypt]

It is frankly not always something so important.

Oh, really?

[median wraith]

I mean they first added a feature I needed back in the days that was remove LODs based on vertical distance

as finally they found the issue with Fortnite

later this years made the landscape nanite

one of the listed features were to make it 3D*

[cursive crypt]

Go figure what does that means.

[median wraith]

but Epic removed the future releases roadmap

[cursive crypt]

No promises made.

[median wraith]

yeah..

they didn't released any example this year by the event

last content released they did was by 5.3

[median wraith]

I mean, after see them in games using it, you can tell the difference

meanwhile you can go an use the nice Voxel Plugin

[cursive crypt]

ppl make great terrains and w/o voxels

[median wraith]

You can see the Cliffs in games like Just Cause and see the actual difference volumetic landscapes does

[cursive crypt]

It does enable/ease certain directions tho, ngl

[median wraith]

what its funny because is one of the larges open world games

but have the tech working somehow smooth

you cannot say the collisions are totally correct but it is what it is

[cursive crypt]

I recall most notable voxel engines being quite good. Very large words were common.

Navmeshes, for example, were not.

[soft night]

https://tenor.com/view/vortex-whirlpool-sinking-gif-13525263

[median wraith]

Navmesh is something that should get an update at some point

at this point the Crytek solution is kinda dated

[cursive crypt]

yea, it is very old version

[median wraith]

we have a 20 years old tech for navigation on 30 years old landscapes

time for an update good lord

need full 3D at some point

[cursive crypt]

lol

Take it easy. One day...

[median wraith]

But you can say the Crytek contributions were good if is kinda the standard now

whats funny again is Godot had GI before UE

and Godot now seems to be implementing AI using Distance Fields

in full 3d

hope we get a solition too

could be more useful for indies than simulated muscles let's say

[summer cedar]

No. You need simulated muscles to properly give gamers the middle finger for the jank you charge $500 for.

[mild gust]

So if we use $500 crows we can charge $500

profit

[median wraith]

Or maybe it's time to open an adults industry studio

[mild gust]

Porn games

[summer cedar]

I assure you. It's already been done. 😄

The whole thing is worth something like $40 billion dollars or more.

[median wraith]

idk how much legal it is

[summer cedar]

Quite legal depending on the country.

Japan and UK are already partners in sex robots.

[median wraith]

yeah that's the problem

if you go to russia and you say you do that

where is banned

[summer cedar]

Depends. In Russia, you just don't say.

[mild gust]

Isn't the porn game industry bigger than steam?

[summer cedar]

You simply do.

[mild gust]

Like there's a website

That sells more than steam

[median wraith]

I mean yeah

[mild gust]

3d games

[median wraith]

but you count them all

[mild gust]

Most slop

[median wraith]

games I don't think so

[summer cedar]

Depends. I don't know if anyone has conducted a valuation of the games industry as a whole.

[mild gust]

But still

Make a porn card game

Like magic the gathering

[median wraith]

Only website makes more profit than Nviida

[summer cedar]

But p@*n is more than $50 billion, I think.

[median wraith]

per employee

[summer cedar]

OH. Games industry is bigger.

Way bigger.

$217 billion going $583 billion.

[median wraith]

the real question is

what of them gets the most money just to the same ones ?

[summer cedar]

P@*n is going 118 billion only.

MOST of the selling games are still games, and not part of the adult industry.

MOST of the garbage are adult garbage, of course.

So, we are all still decent people.

For now.....

[mild gust]

Like Agony Unrated

[summer cedar]

👻

[mild gust]

Squishing demon babies

[summer cedar]

Or that basement torture game.

[mild gust]

Yes

Made by the same people

[summer cedar]

Although, technically, it wouldn't be classified as an adult game.

What about Fear and Hunger

[summer cedar]

Well, I am afraid of going hungry.

😛

[median wraith]

I think they have like 4 solutions so idk anymore

well Lumen it is

does some kind of prebake on fly

why every youtuber is the same, same jokes, same sounds, same memes, jesus

well, not everyone but wanted to check a gameplay and welp

[summer cedar]

Because the audience has a short memory span.

Alzheimer's is a boon to jokers.

You can say the same joke twice, every ten minutes.

[median wraith]

I don't even know this people but seems to work as they have 5 million subs

and they still playing Gmod, didn't expect that

[mild gust]

Matches algorithm maybe gotta spread your web

[summer cedar]

Make sure you watch every genre and type of video on YT every day?

Confuse the algorithm?

This is not the video I am looking for 👋

[mild gust]

Exactly

Consume left and right politics

[summer cedar]

Can't wait for diagonal politics.

Sticking to these cardinal directions is old-fashioned.

We should forge our own paths.

[celest musk]

or just accept the singularity

[summer cedar]

Can't. We are not an accepting species.

[mild gust]

Become one with the systems

[summer cedar]

We must shove the singularity down every hole!

[celest musk]

become one with everything

[mild gust]

Mechwarrior 5.

[summer cedar]

if your summer is filled with zombies, sure.

I remember fixing the car, cleaning it, and driving down the road.

Then it stalled.

I cleaned mine the last week

[summer cedar]

I just didn't care at that point.

[mild gust]

Demos are good

[summer cedar]

Indeed. It's the best way to beef up your Patreon and Ko-fi wallets.

The more AAAs screw up, the more old practices will come back.

[mild gust]

or they will just shove stuff down our throats

and we will have no choice

[summer cedar]

no. I meant non-AAA projects will bring back old practices.

AAAs will not change.

most videos tbh

back in my day we downloaded the uncompressed game footage up hill both ways in the snow

[median wraith]

so what game

show us

Resident Evil village dlcs are a deal ?

[pearl elk]

Its not the best game ever made, its only a tribute

[summer cedar]

very sus

the game was bounced by a kangaroo

missed the store.

[pearl elk]

we dont do that here

cant wait for TIs rundown of the new UE5.6 optimizations 😛

[fleet tangle]

A huge step back, I'm sure.

Nanite performance halved.

Etc.

[soft night]

lumen and nanites perf will be triplet on next update?

[pearl elk]

I love when they compare nanite scenes with polys everywhere to scenes with huge polys filling large chunks of the screen

ofcoarse performance will be better if you use less polys, thats a given but the whole point of nanite is to let you use all those polys and get playable framerates

[median wraith]

there are many things they don't even list on changelog I think

[median wraith]

so what you miss from Half Life you don't see in other releasing games?

There was this sci fi one with robots its the most alike one

[pearl elk]

HL3 will have realistic gas and water interactions as well as interactions with players

[median wraith]

Fabrica o Factory or idk the name now

[pearl elk]

gases and liquids will also interact correctly with portals

[unborn lotus]

Well i hope they revolutionize gaming again with something totally fresh

[median wraith]

wait, portals ?

[unborn lotus]

And unexpected

[median wraith]

each day it pass is harder

[pearl elk]

yes the end of HL2s last released episode hinted at a HL and Portal cross over

so the physics gun will work correctly with portals as well as with gases and liquids

its basically the next logical step

if you remember Portal 2 had liquids in the underground section

and CS2 has gases

TF3 will support all current items available in TF2, they'll transfer right over... oh thats right its Orange Box 3, you'll get Portal 3, L4D3, TF3 and HL3

there is a titan under the floor

[white vessel]

Not sure if this is the right place for this, but anyone ever experience burnout in a project? Like feeling stressed and almost a complete loss of interest or hopelessness? What are some things you do to help with this?

[median wraith]

Yes

Do daily things you never did before helped me

I had to break for awhile on this

and then start going with the bike outside and forcing me todo things I never did before or explore others non related with the computer

@white vessel if that helps or make any sense to you

[white vessel]

Yeah, been trying. New here so looking to meet some people. Been meddling in UE for quite some time and recently came back to it a few weeks ago and maybe went a little too hard too fast. 😵‍💫

[tulip orbit]

I'm currently experiencing that, so far, I've napped, looked at... the internet, played other games a little... nothing productive at all

[cursive crypt]

I ocassionally take long weeks off too.

Switching topics on the project helps.

[tulip orbit]

my current project isnt even complicated. Was meant to be simple and easy, and yet I'm facing nothing but issues! its annoying

[median wraith]

That didn't help me, keep increasing the hole, go outside and disconnect if you can

[white vessel]

Yeah sometimes I feel that way too. Trying to produce too much but not taking enough time to take it easy and consume some relaxing content.

[cursive crypt]

As any activity which brings inspiration in the first place.

There is also a certain barrier to get back into the business too. The first few steps are hard.

[white vessel]

Yeah, true. And then ya hit that plateau 😭

[cursive crypt]

wdym by plateau?

[tulip orbit]

my whole life seems to be in a bit of a rut. I cant seem to find anything to provide inspiration or motivation.... just kinda waiting for the steam summer sale

[cursive crypt]

There was something which inspired you to do what you do already.

[white vessel]

Just sometimes there is a part in the project you can't seem to get past.

[cursive crypt]

Ah, gotcha. Or the task looks so big you don't know from where to bite at it.

[tulip orbit]

current project was just "I need to do some gamedev, something, anything. a 3d sidescroller should be easy right?" Previous projects I got nothing for moving them forward

[cursive crypt]

In these cases, everyone suggest that you fragment further your tasks. One needs to see progress.

[white vessel]

I feel like I probably need some sort of feedback at some point. Is there any groups I can join or people willing to share/discuss their projects and shoot ideas back and forth? I'm kind of getting to that point.

[cursive crypt]

You know, there is a motivation list in the worldbuilding domains... You write down or think about why you want to do that, what does it resemble, what makes you think about it, and so on. Gotta check mine if you want further info.

[cursive crypt]

Technically in #1054845120236757103 , however, I think we need maybe just to befriend ppl and listen for their project, then tell them for yours. It is an exchange.

[white vessel]

Thanks, I will check that out!

[soft night]

xbox games showcase just started

[tulip orbit]

Hm, never been good with those kinds of lists, or even GDDs. link to an example one?

[cursive crypt]

meh

[cursive crypt]

Can't but I can dig out some stuff from mine. It is not GDD. It is more of worldbuiding technique.

[soft night]

ryobg yeah i wait more of pc gaming show

[median wraith]

@tulip orbit if you lost the passion that moves you, try what I pointed

playing other games don't increase your passion but the same on you for not doing it

or increases the hole by making even more games dull generic in your mind

[tulip orbit]

I dont like going outside 😦 other than for smokes.

[white vessel]

Gotta touch some grass 🌻 (Music is a big inspiration for me too, but I make music too and then I get burnt out on that too 😭 )

[cursive crypt]

Here is some digested/filtered list. Maybe spent some time on each one and get back to it from time to time. It is akin to the mood boards (this reminds me to buy a printer):

1. Decide what the game is being built for, and what it means to you - that way, it’ll be fit for purpose!
2. Knowing the genre(s) and general technology/magic level will help you set expectations about your world, and keep your world feeling cohesive.
3. Focus the subjects (focal points) you will be expanding on in your game (e.g. gameplay mechanics, lore, characters)
4. Explore the impact of a point of interest in your game. What details would a thing in your game world have. Dig into details for few things.
5. What are the point of tension in the game, what will bring excitement/drama/emotions.
6. What movies, music, art and ideas have inspired your game setting?

[tulip orbit]

I dunno how to answer most of those questions for my current project. Been thinking of changing the core gameplay style because of an issue I'm having with AI. From a shooting gun at enemies that shoot back, to a sword/melee against much simpler AI that doesnt need a navmesh

[cursive crypt]

If anything, it requires thinking/planning before implementing.

If this is easier for you and is not something you hate, go for it 🙂

[warm bloom]

I need to make a financial plan while I wait for a job

Just so I can determine how much extra money I can set aside from paycheck to go into taxes to pay off debt quicker, since I only have 1 bill to pay.

Working for 4 months with $40 extra optionally being taken out for taxes paid off roughly 2-3k..

[errant raven]

Potential Russian propaganda game? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhNkTdPmPNU

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3573040/Squad_22_ZOV/
"Designed with insights from Russian veterans and active soldiers, Squad 22: ZOV delivers an authentic and intense infantry warfare experience.
Game is officially recommended by the Russian Military for use as a basic infantry tactic manual for cadet and Yunarmy training. "

[summer cedar]

Makes sense. People with gaming skills are increasingly becoming important in some roles.

[mild gust]

They can control the drones

[celest musk]

instructions unclear, my moths didn't hatch into broodlords

[summer cedar]

Not just that. There are other skills, like shooting, reflexes, spatial awareness, driving, etc. etc.

[mild gust]

And sleeping on the job

[celest musk]

idk if gaming is really good for spatial awareness i take that back, confused peripheral awareness with spatial awareness

[mild gust]

I feel it would depend on the game

[celest musk]

driving neither, imho

[mild gust]

Unless racing sim

[summer cedar]

It's not regular people. These are specialised jobs for the few.

OR it saves the organisation training money.

[mild gust]

Like opening worm holes

Or milking cows

[summer cedar]

Pity the cows.

In terms of the army, the games will help young'uns get over the 'shock' of war quicker. Like, you take less time than others getting used to shell and grenade sounds, etc.

It also helps overcome the initial 'fear' factor, or makes the cannon fodder careless through... what's the word... acclimatisation to war conditions via the game.

Any decent military hiring gamers should ensure each soldier goes through double the ethics and morality classes, and has empathy counselling. So that they remember what it means to be human.

Other militaries won't give a f*ck.

[mild gust]

Your right more games need perma-death mechanics

[summer cedar]

And gamers should be able to feel the physical impact of everything.

[mild gust]

With haptic chairs

[summer cedar]

And the sounds, too. Authentic tinnitus, rhinitis, and shattered eardrums.

[mild gust]

Don't forget smells

[summer cedar]

and mud and shit.

[summer cedar]

It's all just words. The real question, "Can ya kill better than a normie?"

[celest musk]

i wouldn't call running into a country with troops and tanks modern warfare

i don't even understand why they still would do that

waste of money and resources

[mild gust]

Real

[summer cedar]

To avoid paying pensions.

[celest musk]

ah, so it's more about reducing their own population

that sounds reasonable then

[mild gust]

That new Viking Predator movie came out last friday

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbddYji1F8s

Guess it's a mixture

But still cool

[summer cedar]

Heh. Pop reduction, fringe benefits. 😄
No, seriously, it's about the experience that the militaries have.

The best example would be - not to toot my own horn - the way the Indian military handled the Pakistanis in the latest conflict. Boots on the ground were strictly in a defensive posture, while drones, jets, and artillery did the job.

But, that's only possible because the US and India are the only two militaries with current, real, actual combat experience - for a variety of reasons.

So, both militaries are more 'flexible' and adapt to changing conditions. Other militaries are - not really - full of fantasies and movie culture.

They use their imagination - called war gaming - to set up scenarios which they 'prepare' for, but reality bites them in the ass.

On the 'bright' side, everyone learns. 😄

[summer cedar]

Hey! It's Call of Duty: LA!

[median wraith]

I'm lost in the conversations you guys are having about war

But the fact YouTube is filled with Allies videos of explosive drones seems like a double morality to me

[mild gust]

There seems to be an excess on various sources nowadays tbf

Youtubes just popular with the allies.

[summer cedar]

Yes. With Assassin's Creed's latest edition came kamikaze legitimacy.

[mild gust]

If you go on telegram lots of Russians on it.

Posting drone bombings etc

[summer cedar]

But yes, you are not wrong. There's a moral debate about the kamikaze strategy.

Proponents draw attention to the unmanned nature of the drones.

Detractors say the act itself is questionable and will lead to a slipper slope.

[mild gust]

or on Xiaohongshu

[summer cedar]

Meanwhile, I will eat ragi bread. 🍞

[median wraith]

By thr eay I doubt that, don't think is comparable whatever we have nanite yo recreate ass hairs and all looks realistic will never be the same with morals anf actual souls losing

With those sentences you give the right/support to the ones that claim playing COD makes you violent

[summer cedar]

It's proven to be quite effective. It's not about comparison. It's about saving on training.

To give you a simple example, it's like exposing horses to gunshot sounds.

They become inured to it.

It's similar to that.

[mild gust]

I mean is there ethics to playing gta ?

[median wraith]

Well you can do a simulation, and sure helps to see the plan an overview, but don't think it will help with morality?

[summer cedar]

Hmm? The previous conversation wasn't about morality.

[median wraith]

yeah, but those are actual gun shots

[summer cedar]

It was just about games and soldiering.

[median wraith]

the horse don't have to take any decision

[summer cedar]

As for kamikaze, yeah, it's questionable, but that isn't the point.

It's cheap.

[summer cedar]

Horsie don't care whether it's real or not.

The sound is what matters.

[summer cedar]

You get used to it.

[median wraith]

yeah that I mean

[summer cedar]

If you get used to certain sounds, they don't frighten you AS MUCH as they would if they were new.

That AS MUCH is what makes the difference.

It lets you save some training costs.

[mild gust]

Like a door slamming

or a stick of dynamite going off

[summer cedar]

Yep.

[celest musk]

isn't the price of the drone calculated in the operation cost per hour?

[fleet tangle]

Isn't this about stopping future damage, though?

[mild gust]

😂

Both questions for the US government I'm sure

[summer cedar]

With drones, we need to wait for laser miniaturization.

Once that's done, drones will be super cheap to use.

$1 laser shots. 😄

[mild gust]

Wait till they can use rail guns

Problems solved

[celest musk]

wait till they put a giant magnify glass in the orbit

Someone told Grok to build GTA 7 with only Javascript.

[median wraith]

what an awesome shit

[celest musk]

yep, that's where we are heading when current devs retire and LLM's rule the world

[median wraith]

Imagine the real GTA in JS

all the bots I tried have serious issues with tech art

The can do art and do code, but cannot think at both at time it seems

cannot visualize a shit

in other hand have awesome "creative" "ideas" <elements mixing>

as they have the whole internet as resource lib

are faster than us

[soft night]

when ben will turn to god of llm

[summer cedar]

When you crash the jet instead of taking off.

[median wraith]

who knows, they have serius issue swith Blender releasing 2 versions that change the api once per year

[soft night]

funny that in eve frontiers the civilizations fell and feral AIs is only left

[median wraith]

well it makes sense meanwhile have batteries

but the reality is we are destroying ourselves

[summer cedar]

Nah. We aren't destroying ourselves. We are evolving into Humai!

[median wraith]

Isn't an evolution if isn't natural I bet

[soft night]

like how many games there is where civilations have fallen and machines only left

[summer cedar]

Only the silly fishy folk believe in natural thingies.
We have always evolved by the dint of our effort, gunpowder, mud, and genetic manipulation!

I love social media wars on YT.

[median wraith]

You are mixing things, that isn't evolution, evolution is what naturally happen when we do all those elements

Now remove all the elements that support the common day and see the real evolution, bet actually is in recesion

[median wraith]

I mean you can call that human power evolution, but no human biological evolution

[summer cedar]

We never evolved because of 'natural' things. Humans always evolved by our own efforts. It's just that we lost a lot of our history to 'oral traditions' and corruption, and the rest took place over a long period of time, as opposed to what is happening now, which is much faster. AND RECORDED.

What we call 'natural evolution' is just something we don't understand completely, or make up shit about.

EXPENSIVE curry rice and beef, I might add.

[median wraith]

Yeah you describe the human power and resources, no the human evolution as is on what I originally mean, wars made us to create faster solutions to self created issues

whole life is a fake promise of improvement of future

[summer cedar]

A lot of people do lead great lives, actually.

It's just that people focus on the shit more.

[median wraith]

Well the whole market is broken

[summer cedar]

Which? Fab?

[median wraith]

Someone said the other day we are like slaves

just now is better to have slaves you don't have to pay their houses

[soft night]

https://tenor.com/view/evolution-human-r1ckr0ll-gif-24053648

[summer cedar]

'like slaves' is just their perspective, or whatever negativity they like to focus on.

[median wraith]

Europe and all

[summer cedar]

The best you can do is make sure your life is great.

Then focus on good things.

That's what most people do.

[median wraith]

by 2000 we had the same income

as we do now

[summer cedar]

You won't find them discussing such things on YT, though.

'Cuz they are busy being happy.

[median wraith]

houses cost x3 as used to

nobody can leave their houses in this countries by 35 y old

[median wraith]

such an improvement

[soft night]

colonize mars and more right windus

[median wraith]

we pay more than 55% in taxes

another improvement you can tell

America did a war because the 5%

[summer cedar]

heh. more like nuke mars, according to musk.

Hev, you live in Spain right?

[median wraith]

actually all the people I meet that had a boost is because they had contacts and nobody because hard work

[median wraith]

right

[summer cedar]

Well, I looked at the happiness index in Spain and you twats measured 6.0-6.6 out of 10.

[soft night]

[summer cedar]

So, quite a lot of you seem to be okay with life.

[median wraith]

lol

[lost bison]

offtopic fact of the day; my unreal t-shirt is finally showing signs of wear and tear

I won this from raffle 11 years ago

[soft night]

unreal spacestation

[median wraith]

its doing awesome you can tell

[summer cedar]

That's actually kinda normal. People have always got ahead because of the people they know. It's just that American TV made it seem like an individual show.

[median wraith]

so you are supporting what you said

[summer cedar]

what do you mean?

[median wraith]

We are the second country in the world with more breakouts, the most unemployed right now for youngh people and rents are at more than 1000€ while the most used income is about 1200€ per month

we are the country with less borns

and all the people in their middle 30s still with their parents because cannot affort a house or even a rent

would say we have plenty of happniess

on top of that the power supply is failing, the trains and public transport too

[summer cedar]

Yes, Spain is a dead country.

You are a ghost typing here.

[median wraith]

check stats

where you live at?

[summer cedar]

I did. That's why I quoted the happiness index. Obviously many people feel fine, despite the problems.

The point is, there are ALWAYS problems.
