or maps etc

summer cedar
#

well, manual editing will always be required.

#

The difference is in the hours of work cut, assuming the generated work is half-good.

#

Speaking of God Todd, Starfield secret update leaked.

#

Apparently, they are revamping space travel. ๐Ÿ˜„ Cruise mode - no more loading screens for space.

#

I hope they remove the loading screens otherwise, too. But, that might be too much to ask.

median wraith
#

worst part about pixel art etc is usually you have to align it correctly

#

and you cannot scale content at all

summer cedar
#

There's always a bit of going back and forth to make sure the result is JUST right.

summer cedar
#

Now put something in that hole.

#

A spaceship using it as a hyperspace gate.

#

A hamster using it as a hoop.

dusky shuttle

#

So long as it doesn't scale by 'accident'....

median wraith

this people using realtime light but usinhg GBUffer decals

says the guy who made a cylinder with programming code. ๐Ÿ˜›

picky picky.

pearl elk
#

oh thats so good, got a new desk which is abit lower ๐Ÿ™‚

summer cedar
#

I'll see when I come back from my walk. ๐Ÿ™‚

pearl elk

just my rig too, not many of my other toys ๐Ÿ˜›

median wraith
#

COD Ghost is one of the most underrated games ever

pearl elk
#

pretty much the only CoD I look at buying tbh

#

its not worth $95.95 though right?

median wraith
#

No, I had it with all the DLCs for like 30โ‚ฌ?

#

was years after the release

#

the game it's dead but you have bots and solo modes

#

is a nice reference for AI and level design

pearl elk
#

I dunno how Activision gets away with these high standard prices, gamers should have been calling it out for years

median wraith
#

yeah that's absurd

#

like MW2 2009 DLCs still for 15โ‚ฌ

#

nobody will play the game anymore so it lost all value for DLCs, give them free or finally bundle them all for 5โ‚ฌ

pearl elk
median wraith
#

yeah I had some of those packs

#

but no the complete

#

and that don't even include the last ones

pearl elk
#

I definitely have no issues paying a fair price

#

but Activision barely makes anything else so they just milk CoD for everything

median wraith
#

I wanted myself the DLCs for WW2

#

but welp

#

not gonna pay 60โ‚ฌ for it

#

for 3 zombies maps

pearl elk
#

yeah Im glad I didnt buy CoD BO6, I just played it on Gamepass, zombies is so weak these days because theyre putting effort into so many other minigames

median wraith
#

best deal recent CODs game

#

is technically for PC the COD BO3

#

as include back level editor

pearl elk
#

thing is too when youve moved on all that grind doesnt mean a whole lot

#

imagine going high prestige in many CoD games

#

bro will be in his 50s like where did my life go

#

nothing wrong with putting time into gaming, its that artificial churn they add to the grind

this is new

#

oh man

#

the 200โ‚ฌ assets packs are worst made than some dudes from russia selling for 5โ‚ฌ

#

this is sad

#

wish there was a pack check or UVs check before purchase

pearl elk

you can hire me if you like

Huanyin your way to rapid crap-models with good textures, then remodel it quickly and slap the textures on it.

#

Refine as needed.

#

You'll save days of work, if not dozens of hours.

With all the 5 Euros you save, you can buy yourself a house-van!

wish to have a noclip mode for every game

celest musk
#

another day, another pleasant linux experience with those fuckers ๐Ÿ˜„

mild gust
#

But Nvidia is the best

#

How can anyone not like them

median wraith
#

what you mean

#

It's like my website

#

you don't need the space on sides for anything

#

plus work on phones

fathom wadi
#

the order of matrix operations is different between unreal and unity too. I read an article about it on a UE facebook group last week

median wraith
#

someone have a cool covex collisions tool for blender?

fathom wadi
#

whats wrong with the in-editor one?

#

if it's essential to be in Blender you could always just duplicate the mesh into a new collection, then decimate elements until you get what you need. But it might not be as good as the in-editor one. It's probably just quicker to subdivide a cube around it if you want really simple convex collisions.

median wraith
fathom wadi
#

well it tried to create a singular convex hull where possible right? So I can imagine thats why. But you can edit them can't you?

cursive crypt
median wraith
#

this is the final boss of those generators

fathom wadi
#

hmm now you got me thinking. I could probably write a nice geometry script for convex hulls with a precision that can solve the hollow cylinder issue

#

could likely do it in python too

median wraith
#

nightmares

cursive crypt
median wraith
median wraith
cursive crypt
#

Maybe capsules or so. Godot seems to have a specific torus

median wraith
#

damm this must be something from the future that nobody needs right, pipe collisions

#

I bet you end using the complex one

fathom wadi
#

see this just looks like wasting time to me. In the time it took to get to this part of the conversation, you could have just modelled the convex hull manually ๐Ÿ˜„

median wraith
#

you will need like an slided orange convex

fathom wadi
#

duplicate -> scale + 0.001 -> decimate->finetune

#

or even just poly model it

cursive crypt
#

,... profit

median wraith
#

low poly model as collision is the only way that comes to my mind

#

but it's surprising there is no a hollow cylinder generator

summer cedar
#

Well, this is new. Path of Exile 2's patcher client crashing like heck.

median wraith
#

array cubes

#

oh yeah

summer cedar
#

Fixing clipping errors is in and of itself a game.

#

Charge $10 for it.

I'm guessing it never accounted for my other two personalities.

How're you doing, btw, Marc? With the troubles you were having.

proud jay
fathom wadi
#

well things are good. House is secure, kids are great, new baby is awesome. Just completed two qualifications in teaching and understanding autism. I'm prepping for teaching Python at my local college. So it's on the up. Thanks for asking ๐Ÿ™‚

proud jay
#

you had another baby?

fathom wadi
#

yeah

proud jay
#

is that 6 kids now?

proud jay
#

congrats though

celest musk
#

half a dozen kids...

proud jay
#

I just had my first 3 months ago

fathom wadi
#

well 8 in total if you count the 2 I virtually adopted

proud jay
#

I have some catching up to do

fathom wadi

summer cedar
#

I was about to quip that it was closer to 9/10 kids.

#

I remembered it was something like that from before.

median wraith
fathom wadi
#

just doing my part for the declining population ๐Ÿ˜„

summer cedar
#

The adoption is really nice of you.

#

Dieter, don't get any ideas. Bread will become too expensive in Belgium.

proud jay
#

that's why I make it myself

kids are my life really. Family is everything. Meaning of life.

Right now, the PoE2 patcher is occupying my life.

median wraith
summer cedar
#

Bloody thing keeps crashing like nuts.

fathom wadi
#

hell yeah windus

summer cedar
#

First time in a long while GGG has screwed up like this. ๐Ÿ˜„

fathom wadi
#

is that the standalone client patcher?

summer cedar
#

everything.

#

Everyone's reporting it

#

403 to 503 errors.

fathom wadi
#

hm.

summer cedar
#

I THINK the patch they are deploying is a bit too large.

#

It's like 40GB.

#

Gotta tweak those servers a bit.

fathom wadi
#

worked for me on steam. Time will tell on the login queue tho ๐Ÿ˜„

proud jay
#

that's nothing compared to CoD

summer cedar
#

They'll get it right.... I might as well not stay up tonight.

fathom wadi
#

it cant be worse than 0.2. It took them a month to fix the "ddos" issues ๐Ÿ˜„

summer cedar
#

true.

fathom wadi
#

you playing deadeye like 95% of people?

summer cedar
#

Probably not. Right now, my head is wrapped around an Amazon Huntress (for the crit with accuracy node) and unarmed.

#

If I hate unarmed, I'll just change the same huntress to my rapid fire crossbow build, like I did last league.

#

Tore everything to shreds. ๐Ÿ˜„

median wraith
fathom wadi
#

yeah sounds like a plan. I was going to run minions again this league but they haven't changed the wisp form issues. No way I'm playing spectres again until they fix that

summer cedar
#

I wanted to plan a bloodmage, but without path of building updated, it's useless to speculate.

#

I thought the latest changes to it might make the bloodmage fun, but.... we'll see.

#

Okay, patcher now remembers where it left off before the last crash. That's good. At least it can resume from where it crashes the next 100 times.

errant raven

@proud jay you said I'd never find a woman that's perfect for me

Wokay! Patching's going well so far. ๐Ÿคž

median wraith
#

I have a friend sharing me screen of campaing games and I don't listen their voices

is Discord muting it due copyright or someone knows whats going on

proud jay
#

you have a friend?

sleek trench

and if it is your friend sending you, its mean the screen is in private message and discord will never mute it in this case

summer cedar

Okay, patching successful. Finally.

Don't worry. The next UE patch will be further unoptimised to compensate.

I think the brilliant part of Starship Troopers though is that kiddos sign up willingly, they dont even realise theyre being conscripted

summer cedar
#

Of course they sign up willingly.

#

Curricular activities at school include roach squishing.

It's shown in the movies.

pearl elk

trouble with regular conscription is you can end up with those dodgy conscientious objectors

Like in Minnesota?

that's just culture.

That's america!

summer cedar
#

I admire the American honesty, though.

#

At least the Republicans'.

#

They say outright, "We aren't going to change any gun laws. We aren't going to ban guns. Tough luck."

#

Gotta give them that; they wear their black hearts on their sleeves.

pearl elk
#

meanwhile the US banned guns in the late 40s early 50s

#

thats why you cant buy round clips for a tommy gun or a BAR anymore

summer cedar
#

But, but, my Aussie friend, you can just 3D print them now.

#

๐Ÿ˜„

pearl elk
#

just make your BAR look like an AR and its all good

apparently wooden stocks are the dangerous part of the gun

summer cedar

I bet the label is the most dangerous part.

Just call it a pistol and it'll automatically become safe.

An evil wasp, a thrall of the chaos gods, attempted to breach the holy sanctum of my study through the sanctified windows. Clearly, an ill omen and the hand of evil at play.

summer cedar
#

There were two of the foul creatures. They were redeemed in the sacred fire of the Emperor's light.

Tl;dr - yes.

pearl elk
#

only one inventory?

mild gust
#

But what about second inventory?

summer cedar
#

Clearly, all of you are old n00bs.

#

You must have FIVE inventories.

errant raven
#

Five inventories?

#

I got 20 in neverwinter

mild gust
#

20 that's rookie numbers

summer cedar
#

Yes, but you have nothing to put in those 20.

mild gust
#

He has peppers

errant raven
#

My inventory is full of loot

#

I spent 8 or so hours killing the same mini bosses over and over and got their loot drops

#

Why would I not have anything to put into my inventory in a mmo?

mild gust
#

Why not

#

Maybe you rwt

errant raven
#

Rwt?

pearl elk
#

you clearly need more than one inventory to upsell people

#

first inventory is a tiny napsack which can only hold 5 times

errant raven
#

5 items is a lot

pearl elk
#

yeah but it doesnt hold any gold, you need to craft the purse inventory to do that and basic purse only holds 50 gold

errant raven
#

Theres your shared character bank, your personal bank, then your characters 7 mythical bags of holdings

mild gust
errant raven
#

Then theirs your default inventory that only holds quest items

mild gust
#

Holy

errant raven
#

Then theres another inventory that only holds cosmetic items. I.e armour you convert to cosmetics so you can use their look on your actual armour

mild gust
#

Can you combine your bags

#

To make a super bag

errant raven
#

No, the mythical nag of holding is the super bag

#

Holds 50 or 70 items?

#

72 item slots

pearl elk
#

what about the water bottle which holds water inventory

#

no auto drinking either, you have to manually equip the bottle to your hand then press the drink button for each sip

errant raven
#

Is that that mechanic where you also have to control how much you drink in a sip, to prevent choking

pearl elk
#

yeah and you cant drink too fast after eating or running either

mild gust
#

Swimming?

pearl elk
#

you can drink while swimming but you probably dont want to drink salt water

mild gust
#

Aww why not

pearl elk
#

too many electrolytes, you have to keep those balanced with your carbs

@summer cedar do servitors still need to eat and drink. And consequently piss and shit

summer cedar
#

No. They don't need inventories either.

#

They do need maintenance of their flesh material and cogs (mechanical).

That's taken care of by the servants of a lower category than them, I believe.

@mild gust Switched back to gameready drivers. Studio was pretty bad for gaming on my card.

any example of recent game that have retro graphics ?

starting by limited resolution

I'm so bored of need to login each 4 days at FAB

its cuz youre a bot

@trail ore sooo si there some gameplay plugin or so in FAb or github or so to manage gameplay events, ticks, timers and such elements ?

How can you login just once when you haven't paid the Spanish Login tax?

well technically GAS it's like that up to an extend but

is there any game using UE that have a highlighted AI ?

so whats your game about?

welcome to my nightmares

still don't know if use 5.6 or keep at 4.27 lol

my issue are the bugs

and the lost of Tessellation

#

and about Lumen

#

there is an issue because I want full dynamic light for this project

#

but unsure if using Lumen

#

My only issue about ue4.27

#

Is to import all assets packa

mild gust

i had better results with the old retargeter ๐Ÿ˜„

median wraith
#

Don't work, there is a dude selling a downgrader but unsure if works correctly have negatives

#

Need to export the content outside of the engine

mild gust
#

Not the same but looks similar

median wraith
#

Then reimport and manually redu all

celest musk
#

yea

#

select all vertices, merge by distance, and set the distance to 100m

#

thank me later

#

disable subdivision before you export to blender

#

most DAZ stuff has 1-3 levels of subdiv applied

#

so far i found one author which does good geometry on the daz store....

#

which Gen are you using?

median wraith
#

I do remember to purchase a game licence for daz

celest musk
#

what? you had one?

median wraith
#

Genesis 5 or 6

celest musk
#

oh a specific

median wraith
#

Yeah are per mesh

celest musk
#

they used to have an Indie tier, for i think 200 bucks

#

then they changed to per asset, and now it's $50 for almost everything

median wraith
#

Yeah since the market change that is dust

#

Tbh is overrated

#

For what they provide

#

Skins of skins

celest musk
#

also most of the stuff isn't even game ready to begin with

#

asking $50 for it is kinda shameless

median wraith
#

There are a lot of artist on Artstation selling complete kits and dynamic for like 100$

#

I knew a lady selling clothes for 10$

celest musk
#

yea or renderhub (which has the best pricing imho)

#

but least assets for Daz

#

but at least most things come with extended use license

#

that gonna deform like ass

#

make an adult game and scrap the clothes

#

pretty much everything in Daz depends on dforce

#

doing some kind of expensive shrinkwrap every frame

soft night
celest musk
#

you could transfer weights from the original

#

it's better than starting from scratch (imho)

#

also it's better than in older blender versions

celest musk
#

that's what i thought of actually

#

but i also have to look it up every time....

#

or i'm confusing it with vertex colors ๐Ÿค”

i wish i still had your optimism

Go ahead. Rename them 001_001_001. I dare you.

median wraith
soft night
#

for those who dare

median wraith
#

and each level is this

summer cedar
#

dforce can either be down force or distortion force.

celest musk
#

thanks i hate it

summer cedar
#

If there's any gravity module associated with it, it's the former.

celest musk
#

but not your fault

#

dresses are always weightpainted like ass

#

and there's probably no way to get them right without cloth sim

median wraith
#

okay so packaged level actors it's like prefabs, but its actually a Blueprint what destroy the whole point and logic

summer cedar
#

But, she looks like a normal person.

#

So, you're good.

celest musk
#

nah, you can't see it in the pic

#

but the part between the legs always stretches ugly

#

i think most "artists" use automatic weight painting

summer cedar
#

just make the clothes disappear, if they don't look right.

#

it's perfectly normal these days.

Good morning! ๐ŸŒค๏ธ โ˜•

#

Did you try stunning palm + tempest flurry combo? ๐Ÿ˜„

#

The resulting VFX transform the screen into a windy, airy mess. You won't worry about the character's animations at that time. ๐Ÿ˜„

#

The one mistake I made was over using Glacial Cascade.

#

I should've switched to Wind Sweeper, or whatever it's called a.s.a.p.

#

That skill allows staggering palm to be used so quickly, by dazing everything on the screen.

#

The game really rewards changing rapidly.

#

Even bleed and DoT are stronger, I feel, because of whatever changes they made for the blood mage.

#

Everything feels.... more chunky. ๐Ÿ˜„

#

Abyssal currency drops are also really good so far.

#

I feel the merchant trader should have been introduced in Act 2, instead of later.

I've to run my first ascendancy trial now and I can't trade in-game through the Merchant's Tab yet.

I suppose I should do some writing in my design document since I went through all the effort to make it all techhy and integrated into the game data

yup thats exactly what Im trying to avoid, I made huge design docs in the past and no one read them, not to mention the disconnect between the doc updates and the game updates

#

yeah I stopped too but this method I got works pretty well I rekon, its mostly all text based too but I developed a webapp frontend to pipe it through. The idea is just to use UE as a pipeline tool mostly not for DCC ๐Ÿ˜›

asked Gemini on the phone about nano banana

#

and told me she is not a provider of modified bananas

pearl elk
#

definitely an option, I just started putting the game data into json early on and I have a plugin which hooks those into DataAssets in UE. Im not even using Actor subclasses because of my DataAssetComponent which handles all the data

#

still havent found a good solution to turn less strict data into strict C++ structs yet, Im just using LLMs to do it for me atm but I'll find a way to use JSON schema to generate USTRUCTs ๐Ÿ˜น

#

I can use LLMs to generate the schema from a JSON too so most of that should be completely automated at some point even if the data changes

And gave me this

yeah it is

so why they didn't scale the bone head to 0.001

tried the animation template they did

that isn't game ready, idk what expected myself

median wraith
#

he was shorter than me from what I knew

#

well at first looked like awesome concept

#

then at the ending mid, turned like a generic game

#

Na I mean this locomotion thing

#

you can pass the walls with the actual character etc

#

I don't even mean first person

#

but the whole character pass the walls

#

so isn't even usable for a third person

#

the whole character anim goes off the capsule by half meter

#

and enters inside walls

#

you can see literally half character inside

#

yeah idk

#

it moves too excesive to extremes

#

and in case you do this then you need a capsule override or something and that will give issues

there is no a single robot android animation

gives 200FPS extra

when Epic gives DBUffer decals for static skylights by default

should be only enabled for Stationary Light

something I'm unsure is why Epic is using instanced meshes for individual meshes

this was at 15%

maybe I'm crazy but my vision of future wasn't this for sure

you played ever those old retro shooters or alike that are 6dof or whatever is called

what you mean

there is this mesh tool since 4.x that's based on some GDC thing plus Intel

you have blender i mean

Doesnt the model tool do that?

UE retakes the original mesh to make every LOD

rather than reuse the last LOD one

and that's a waste since is using relative scales to prior ones

Apparently, there are problems with exterminating planets after a certain point.

errant raven
#

Like what

summer cedar
#

Heinrix, inquisitor du Ordos, explains in Rogue Trader.

errant raven
#

I'm not playing a game just to find out why

summer cedar
#

You can't exterminate a chaos planet, for example, after a certain amount of corruption has taken place.

errant raven
#

Why

summer cedar
#

The energies released by both exterminatus and warp magic make the situation infinitely worse.

errant raven
#

It develops plot armour

summer cedar
#

Apparently, Heinrix says, it has happened before and he experienced it.

errant raven
#

And the need for another book

summer cedar
#

So, there's a narrow window of opportunity to exterminate a planet.

#

You have to either take it, or just abandon the sector.

#

OR go in manually and sacrifice a billion lives.

errant raven
#

But necrons are immune to corruption

I imagine there's something similar with Necron worlds, too.
