theyre always dropping coconuts on my house
We used to feed sparrows in the last city we lived in.
We made them very fat.
I was afraid they'd be unable to fly. The pigeons tried taking advantage of that to steal their food.
So, we stopped feeding the sparrows.
Lean and mean is the way to go, apparently.
pearl elk
someone linked a custom 5.6 in here the other day with DDGI and no lumen
pearl elk
its kinda frustrating that anything you want a plugin for you cant actually get a plugin, theyre custom builds
summer cedar
Be happy you're getting an engine at least.
Imagine writing all this stuff from scratch.
I can't. No damn way.
pearl elk
instead we got plugins which are more like modules
my game would probably be done already
I woulda cut the scope to make it run on javascript in the browser

You can, still. ๐

No shit

I do remember the Samaritan Demo from Epic with UE 3.5
all those get affected
here looks like the neons don't affect the light or at least the volumetrics?
mild gust
median wraith
Lumen dont?
proud jay
whats this
it's a screenshot of a video
pearl elk
is it just the lower FPS on YT or does that look full of microstutters?
mild gust
Yeah and halo 1 is 24 years old
proud jay
it looks nice though
mild gust
Still looks better than a lot of modern day slop
median wraith
yet the neons don't looke like have a spotlight but actually affecting the world
must be a limitations with Lumen and Volumetrics
pearl elk
emissive isnt baked into the volumetrics is it
median wraith
that looks like
pearl elk
because its material its not real lights, they did it in id tech tbh
median wraith
well yeah the UE4 since 15 or so
it does bake light into volumetrics
seems like Lumen dont
pearl elk
theres some really good Doom 2016 talks about the tech they used
particle lights will impact volumetrics and you can have lit volumetrics but yeah material interaction with those systems is alittle shite
median wraith
I don't blame the devs they have limited time and thats a demo
but it seems like the engine power isn't still there to compete with actual baked light
pearl elk
unfortunately Epic are just so big and stretched thin that its a big boat now with such slow ass steering its easy to hit ice bergs
median wraith
I'm worndering now
if pointlight actually have that limitation when you make pipe shaped
with the volumetrics
mild gust

I cant remember what talk it was but there was one where they broke down the fluoro lights from Doom

median wraith

isn't for UE market
pearl elk
thats okay, I dont mind as long as the price is good
the anim ones seem to be for UE since its Manny
pearl elk
why does the image say Professional license on Fab>
median wraith
what image
summer cedar
Because Hevedy-kun is a professional.
All the assets he searches are automatically pro licenses.
summer cedar
some of them dont say it but most do
The reason is that as you are paying for a Humble Bundle, they are giving you the best license available, assuming you will run a professional studio eventually.
Otherwise, after you become successful, you will have a problem using a personal license asset only.
It prevents double-buying and a significant amount of moolah.
pearl elk
the Cosmos store thingo doesnt even have professional level, its 3 tiers
summer cedar
Well, it's vary based on the asset and whether the owners agree.
It's Humble Bundle, not Coercive Bundle.

Did you see snow to?
mild gust
Yay
bronze axle
If you like short story horror
I do, and I've heard good things about V/H/S.
I've been watching older horror.
Bram Stoker's Dracula was great to watch in 4K.
mild gust
Heck yeah
mild gust
Have you seen Long Legs?
bronze axle
Not yet. I hear mixed things, but I want to give it a shot.

The best modern horror movie I've seen recently was Nosferatu last December. A masterpiece.

For people who don't like him they will hate it.

Also a good one
What about Terrifier?
bronze axle
If you don't mind Nicolas Cage it's worth
I think he's fun. I enjoy most of his work.
Not yet, but I see Art the Clown in my X feed a lot.
I follow several people who are big fans.
mild gust
They are making a game even
bronze axle
Oh my.
mild gust
It's an little arcade title
The name alone is goated https://store.steampowered.com/app/3130400/Terrifier_The_ARTcade_Game/

I did not expect it to be a retro brawler.
summer cedar
I don't watch horror movies,
but I've been killing a lot of demons in Wrath of the Righteous.... again. ๐

woohoo, hard crashed the editor

Warhammer is basically horror

Ah, another classic.
pearl elk
bronze axle
I will always think of Jake Gyllenhaal as Donnie.
bronze axle
Jacob's Ladder is great.
A major source of inspiration for Silent Hill, as well.
Masahiro Ito saw that film alone in the theater.
It inspired many of the most memorable aspects of Silent Hill and Silent Hill 2.
bronze axle
The other world school. The jerky movement of the nurses. Pyramid Head's backstory.
bronze axle
Silent hill is inspiring a lot of my current ideas ๐
You and me both.

Some of the best story telling I think
bronze axle
Silent Hill 3 and Fatal Frame are the two games that influence my horror work most.
pearl elk
Im boring, I like Jaws and Alien
summer cedar
If you can't deeply bore me, I'd be disappointed.
pearl elk
I'll just hop in this teleporter and become a fly on the wall
summer cedar
Wait, why am I seeing double, triple, quintuple even? bzzz....
pearl elk
mild gust
Hellraisers are goated to
I actually kinda liked the one with the female hellraiser to
She was terrifying.
pearl elk
newer horror just doesnt seem to unsettle me as much as older stuff
mild gust
Because they lost their soul
There's too much cgi and not enough practical effects.
The only good modern horrors use practical effects.
summer cedar
She was terrifying.
Why are you scared of your own creations, Satan?!
pearl elk
I think some of it has to do with actors being chosen based on attractiveness instead of skill
mild gust
Terrifier was a good example
mild gust
Why are you scared of your own creations, Satan?!
Someone has to be

True
Like the I know what you did last summer remake
Only 2 actors in it were actually decent actors
The rest were slop
pearl elk
nothing like a bad set of teeth to set the mood
but if you watch something like Ghostbusters Bill Murrays hair just does its own thing, sure theres makeup etc but its not as over the top as it is now
summer cedar
Someone has to be
The most horrifying creatures in the world are tax officials.
๐
mild gust
Are you sure
summer cedar
but if you watch something like Ghostbusters Bill Murrays hair just does its own...
My hair is similar. It has a tendency to just be weird every day.
summer cedar
Are you sure
Ho yes.
Mostly because of deadlines and requirements.
summer cedar
No. Those are disgusting. Also, you can run away from them.
Good luck evading the taxman.
mild gust
Just fake your death
pearl elk
you guys are forgetting spooks that get paid to torture people for a living
summer cedar
Bwee hee hee.
That used to work.
They have lots of masheens to check your life these days.
summer cedar
you guys are forgetting spooks that get paid to torture people for a living
You can spook those in return and torture them instead.
What will you do against the TAXMAN?!
๐ป
mild gust
5 weeks
Doubt it will have a demo
It's probably rated AO
The developer is, Madmind Studio
They tend to make things on the fringe
They released a new trailer ๐ฎ
pearl elk
I wouldnt mind seeing a horror thats abit like Existenz, that bio hack stuff is kinda freaky
pearl elk
Observer was pretty decent for a messed up game
pearl elk
I'll call it Turn That Frown Upside Down
I really wish Steam didnt do that auto rotate through pictures and video thing
putting a clip at the start and end is such dark pattern
mild gust
Agreed
summer cedar
Why did they extend the Mega Jam deadline?
summer cedar
Oh that.
pearl elk
lol is that what killed it
summer cedar
I thought people didn't make enough sucky games.
pearl elk
megajamming aws radar
summer cedar
Lol. The Frump administration is apparently tamping the tariffs down slowly and secretly, because they are afraid of the economic effects.
They're keeping it out of the news too, but that's not working out too well. Who knew it's difficult to keep secrets when you are utterly notorious?!
proud jay
yeah they're removing tarrifs on goods that can't be produced in the US
like, no shit sherlock
summer cedar
I wonder if he'll make another AI video of tariffs shitting on his own people.
proud jay
who knows
mild gust
Ask the 8 ball
summer cedar
Ask the 8 ball
shit ball?
summer cedar
Won't work with Trump then.
๐คฃ I disagree with this description of the situation.
It's more a stupid toddler being tolerated by a wiser adult.
summer cedar
could be crude shit, too.
I mean, that seems to be a valued commodity in the free land.
But seriously, it's a common usage of crude for crude oil, in short headlines.
Problem comes when people begin to use it in FULL sentences in conversations. ๐
proud jay
why you gotto be so crude
broken sigil

broken sigil
Go outside; touch someone.
summer cedar
How did you get on that bike then? ๐
proud jay
you don't have to touch someone to get on a bike
proud jay
we have proof that BM goes outside at least once in a while, because of the pics

proud jay
Have you analyzed the metadata?
didn't know he was paid by Meta
mild gust
Almost every image has metadata ๐ค
summer cedar
Doesn't speak well of Meta to be honest, getting into every image.
mild gust
Smh
proud jay
definitely the whole world is generated by Meta
living in the metaverse without knowing
mild gust
The Matrix is real?
summer cedar
But then, ๐ค why does Meta want vans?
proud jay
But then, ๐ค why does Meta want vans?
to live free of the meta verse

MAID for all

I want a maid if canada is paying for it
summer cedar
What? Do they drive off the edge?
mild gust
No
Expensive chemicals
and you pass
It's like 12k?
You have to pay it
Government doesn't
proud jay
they'll surely pass on the profit to the family of the deceased right
mild gust
Surely not
Your an organ donor
You lose all rights to them
If you put organ donor on your health card
You can opt out of it
proud jay
would this not incentivize maid to encourage earlier decision of assisted suicide
for profit
mild gust
would this not incentivize maid to encourage earlier decision of assisted suicid...
Correct
And it has been
proud jay
You can opt out of it
actually in belgium, it's opt out by default, if you don't say anything, you're an organ donor
mild gust
People have been encouraged to kill themselves
One guy was denied a ramp to his home
and told it's cheaper to kill himself
proud jay
gotto do what you gotto do
proud jay
in belgium the assisted suicide is like a quite arduous track before you get the "right" to die
it takes like years
mild gust
I have yet to see the final verdict of it
proud jay

mild gust
is this with the banking guy in charge?
Yup
mild gust
They did
proud jay
or is he the biggest party, but still a minority as a whole
mild gust
Correct
But we have a few smaller parties
That got some seats
and if they vote against him
proud jay
but don't they have to form a majority to form a government?
mild gust
He loses the ability to pass
proud jay
ah you're saying they're in the government but don't necessarily agree
mild gust
Yeah
We have the NDP
and the green party
That also vote against them
Lol
and conservatives
and the bloc
proud jay
usually you would not present a bill that was not previously agreed upon behind closed doors though right
mild gust
So like
Quebec has a lot of influence
Vs the liberals
Because they need them
If they can't keep the bloc happy they immediately vote against them
proud jay
we have something like that in belgium too
mild gust
usually you would not present a bill that was not previously agreed upon behind ...
Well this bill is controversial.
proud jay
there's one huge party, but they had to take along 2 smaller ones for majority
mild gust
They want it passed asap
proud jay
so now they need to adjust their policies to please them to pass anything
mild gust
So I think they are trying to do some shady shit

Guns are for hunting
Hunting, my foot.
You're supposed to be eating processed fat, cheese, and laboratory meat, just like everyone else.
proud jay
guns are fine if they're licensed I guess
it just being yolo public market is more of the problem imo in USA
mild gust
Problem is they are being smuggled from the US
So we have gang members with American guns
Maybe when all the US joint forces come to Canada it will change ๐
summer cedar
If you're not going to legalise bazookas, then you don't need any gun.
Vice versa, subsidise bazookas for all.
summer cedar
We could do that in the 51st state.
proud jay
USA is the only country with more guns owned by private citizens than there are inhabitants afaik
mild gust
I mean you got youtubers with like 50+ guns each
summer cedar
Can't live without five assault rifles each.
proud jay
120.5 guns per 100 people according to wikipedia
mild gust
Lol
proud jay
all those newborns with their AR15s
summer cedar
You could reduce that ratio in a jiffy with bazookas.
mild gust
