Yeah I dont understand the motivations really, I kick into survivor mode in those scenarios, I dont bother talking about mundane stuff. Mind you I dont like doing that at the best of times 😛
Oh theres zombies knocking on my door, quick break out the when I was a young lad monologue
And Neegan omg, sure now if it made sense for him to monologue everyone into zombies
if monologuing is the number one skill to have in a zombie apocalypse its pretty clear Quentin Tarantino is going to be king of everyone.
I keep expecting like a Final Destination thing where its monologuing then BOOM, someones head just comes clean off or explodes
Plot armour without having any plot 😛
it surprises me the number of errors in code I just see
there are headers with duplicated functions without any sense
/** Similar to BufferMultiplyByConstant, but (a) assumes a buffer length divisible by 4 and (b) performs the multiply in place. */

bhahaha, russian parliament is proposing a modification to russian constitution. It would effectively erase the number of terms Putin has been the president and allow him to be the president again because then on paper he has been zero terms as the president
he will be president 4ever, one way or another
Why i always use _ in the functions inputs:
\Source\FlockingBehaviourSystem\Private\Boid.cpp(245): warning C4458: declaration of 'Boids' hides class member
\Source\FlockingBehaviourSystem\Public\Boid.h(209): note: see declaration of 'ABoid::Boids'
use in* addition
@fluid bloom Is it still called president there? Pretty sure they opted back in for Tsar heh.
they realized the china model is simpler
have "representation" in the form of parliament and then a president
Sorry, just want to vent for a second:
I see people working on games alone. Some of them look pretty cool and I want to help them out with 3D/animation. For free. Seriously. I just want to work on cool stuff with people that know what they are doing on their end.
I get that it's a huge bragging right to make a game by yourself. But I'll reach out to these people and before things even get to the portfolio or anything, they just say "no thanks I'm not looking for help"
What's the deal with that? How could people refuse without any further discussion someone offering free help? Again, it's a bragging right to do something by yourself. I get that. But it also 100% inefficient and doesn't look like they are able to handle working in even a two man team or like they have some kind of "mine mine mine all me mine" way of thinking.
I like doing things my way as much as the next guy but even I know how inefficient and completely unrealistic it is to do literally everything by myself.
I'll wait for the elaboration on this one...
no need to be mean/sarcastic
some people just don't want to bother coordinating and managing stuff with other people
Free help can be more costly than paid work.
it's simpler to just do stuff on your own
having someone to unwrap your meshes for ya be nice :p
Am I the only one with 3D past, that enjoys unwrapping ?
I do like it, but its so time consuming
I like unwrapping in max, hate it in blender
anyway if u wanna help me later
@fluid bloom Depending on your definition of easier, I'd have to disagree. Not just with making games but with everything in life, any time spent doing one thing is time spent not doing another thing. Unless you end up working with someone just completely inadequate, it's almost impossible that you wouldn't see a gain in productivity adding someone to help with even minor things.
while that can be true, if you look at working at an office, it generally costs money to have an intern because skilled people need to help/train them, and therefore not spending time on actual development
doing stuff slower and it being easier aren't mutually exclusive
@odd mortar make me 3d models
and some people might just enjoy doing the stuff by themselves
they don't necessarily care about peak efficiency
managing and guiding the other people will always take time and it might not be something the person enjoys to do
i want 3d models of enemies that explode when shot and have like dismemberment
like doom or dead space
have it done in like 1-3 hours
<_< wondered why I couldnt select my edges in max, forgot to remove the uv-overlay in the texture
@fluid bloom I can understand that. It's just sad to see people with potential possibly never have their project see the light of day simply because they are not open to receiving even the slightest modicum of help
see im trying to help u and u still are not making my 3d models
Perhaps you've noticed I'm ignoring you because you present yourself as a substandard person
play nice now, both of you
@odd mortar If you do animation in Blender, I can send you something to animate later today if you want 🙂 I work alone on my game, but I know I'm going to need help in the future
Unlikely considering I generally provide a simple introduction expressing interest in their game and telling them what I can offer. Hardly anything that they could glean information about my character
@zinc matrix I said "behave", last warning
but all i did is hint him what the people he asked might think and did not insult him
unlike him
you are being very annoying and childish.
^
well i rather work alone then
@odd mortar I would prefer to work alone as well as others do. Not because to able to say "I did it all myself", but to be able to think "I walked this journey and completed my quest". Its hard to express a visual thing with words. It can be a challenge to accept the work of another as its potentielly different than what I have in mind (visually or code wise). "Free" help comes often at the cost of being very costly in time instead of money. And someone like you is more an exception to this than an avarage
I did take the leap of faith once, many years ago in a different kind of project, which ended up to bring way more problems and cost me so much time, I would rather avoid such situation again. Perhaps that also plays a part in the choice to prefer solo over a team. Of course, for some people I'm happy to make an exception and let them join my project. But it became a thing of "you have to earn a spot". Not out of arrogance, but out of fear of having to redo too many things. A nice way to find out how people work and what their capabilities are is a sweet game jam
test
@sage tendon That's fair. And as a matter of principle, I always offer to start off with a little test but I've never had anyone consider even that. I guess it just surprised me that I am encountering that situation more than I ever expected.
I'm working on my own game by myself which I'm fine with, but I guess I'm more open to having help pending they can prove a bit beforehand with a little test.
jfc, max 2020 still has the random vert not showing bug until you collapse stack
thats like 15 versions now
lol max
@deep glen Perhaps time to move to Blender? 😄
once I am done with the block-out/mood stage I might
hehe, "Soon(TM)"
you know it
I do, also thanks for your reply on my fb post, it was hearth warming 🙂

LOOOL
well i allways bring my own k/b mouse 😛
and ppl know better than to touch my crap
corona is not the danger here
using a german keyboard/touchpad or 1button mouse is just horrible
touches @carmine frigate's keyboard
thats my virual keyboard 😛
guess im a bit less dangerous on a global scale, not 100% sure tho
sometimes i surprize even myself 😛
i have a trust gtx gms 505 and I like it, but mice are very personal
mans
would like if they made a mouse for wide hands

Are thou an angel?
hi mates
Bumpoffset is where it's at. Let's go back to 2004 level detail.
Just get a better GPU.
its weird, not suggesting triangles are free either but stuff has gotten so much more optimized with plain triangle drawing than back when dx9 parallax was introduced, where shading seems to really where the bulk of time is spent now, even though that is also faster now
Get a better GPU...
Min specs:
Get a better GPU...
Yes.
Min specs: Stop being so cheap, buy a real computer
Min specs: A PC that understands what Daylight Savings Time is.
Hmm. Blender, substance painter AND UE4 crashed while I was AFK
Get a better GPU...
yea but trist also add to shadow
but high trist with extra shadow mesh is doable
@north torrent send money :p
trist in volume fog or something hits the cpu hard i believe
but if it doesnt cast shadow its allright
so adding 2k trist that isnt visible and just cast shadow might be cheaper
what is the best monitor setup? 1 huge screen, or multiple smaller ones? I like to have many things open at once. Like discord in one monitor, and unity or a game in another one.
But problem with one huge monitor: How do I tell the pc to put the game or unity on on the left side of monitor, and discord right, and google chrome under discord and so on?
win key + arrow keys
@fluid bloom sorry. that doesn't work goodly. horribly. only left and right. no up or down. and no 3 windows in one monitor
multiple monitors wil give more pixels for less money
corners work fine on my end
discord just sucks and doesn't work with it for some reason
every other app works
@fluid bloom corners? windows only supports left and right 2 windows in one screen. thats it.
that is lame
but for other fancier stuff you might need a better window manager
win 10 supports corners too
what are corners
corners are the hottest part of the room, cause they're 90degrees
hawt corners
I need a bigger screen 😄
anyway, at work I have two screens and it works great too
@fluid bloom then you need 40 inch screen if you want 4 windows in one screen lol
yeah I was just replying to this part:
How do I tell the pc to put the game or unity on on the left side of monitor, and discord right, and google chrome under discord and so on?
Ultrawide is life.
All you have to worry about is left and right.
Bonus is, you can watch a movie or play a game in 21:9 when you are done doing game design.
@north torrent and pay a lot more than 2x 24"
But can you play games on 2 24 inch monitors? No.
you can, though not sure id want my crosshair right in the middle of both screens
A thick black line in the middle of your picture as you watch a movie.
@north torrent is having 40 inch screen really that good if its 40cm away from you for gaming?
nd dont forget if you want same quality in a 40 inch you need to pay A LORE MORE
i played MW2 on 3 monitors it was actually a big tactical advantage there
u could see way more
@carmine frigate but only if you actively move your pupils
in a distance of 1 meter probably? if 3 monitors wide
something like that, u can still spot movement verry well in the corners of ur eye'
u just dont see what it is
i dont think many shooters still have that option tho
in the dark the corners of your eye actually have better contrast than the center
play game really dark :p
yea overwatch did a great job killing the fun when owning 21:9 screen
like monitor less light?
because ESPAHTS and locked resolution aspect ratio
they actively removed it there?
dumbest shit ever invented
i can see why in multiplayer tho
yea but
do you really need to be so hellbent on "equal playing field" that you're willing to drive customers away
ye Im cool with ranked matches being hardware restricted
hello guys how is it going the corona?
xD
we have 2cases new from 40 minutes, Bulgaria we have 6 for now
some1 stood too close to me at the supermarket so i just started coughing verry loud
My ultrawide monitor is in quarantine for 5 more days...
my good old smokers cough is keeping those ppl at a safe distance
got about 6 billion closer to bein the richest man on earth today
thats a win in my book
Toilet paper stocks?
nah Bezos took a big hit
In the balls?
i guess
I think the world needs a lot more people with $5 million and a lot less people with $50 billion or more.
competitive people have ruined gaming
Do you remember Mario Paint on the SNES?
Rollerball mouse with a hard plastic mousepad.
I do not but that is amazing

@north torrent is that game blazing sails? what is that game on your screenshot
lol

I'm going through this old "2000 Fonts" disk I got for $4.99 at WalMart like 15 years ago and man, these fonts are fucking terrible lol
There's none of the typical ones like Times Roman, Consolas, etc. At least not using those names
I needz mor ZPU!!!
wtf is that?
this is what the interwebs tells me zpu is:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZPU
Thats about right
how long does a fresh engine build take you right now?
20 engine builds per second
and that includes handwriting the punchcards first too!
enough time I forget what I was doing in the first place xD
No timer, but I'd have to guess 20-30 minutes
1492 seconds
25 minutes
(full build)
thats not that bad
I'm on T/R
1920x
Ah
not bragging but I get 18-22 mins on an i7 7700k
ye 12 core
2950
this system is carefully pieced together specifically as a hardcore workhorse though lol
I just spent 400 on a 2070 and ~200 on a new power supply
the 3990x will have to wait xD
lmao
Want
Yeah, that's off in the distance for me
except for my outdated cpu lol
Sorry, I think you meant need
turns out I don't really do much engine fiddling these days
holy shit, that thing has 64 cores
I don't either, but someone got uwp working again on 4.20
what're you running
Build solution
ah
after cleaning?
I could probably put it on my nvme, but since its a side project, so its on my 8 year old ssd
@dim ruin I'm kidding, I would need to get ANOTHER new power supply, and a new mobo, and tons of ramz
I'll move up to like a 3rd gen 24 core or something
or hell, normal destop ryzen (3rd gen) is actually an option now too
I haven't had an amd processor in quite a while, since Phenom II I think, but fuck Intel sideways for what I had to pay for a 7700K
lol
I've always been an AMD fanboy, but when core2duo came out you best believe I was team Intel xD
when I did this build, Ryzan was just about to release and not enough was really known yet. The whole "p silica shortage" nonsense was peaking so ram cost more than twice what it does now. brutal lol
If I built the same PC budget now with ram and ssd prices + new processors, ugh I could have an incredible machine
I'll definitely be considering amd for my next build though unless Intel does something groundbreaking, which I doubt
when AMD released the 64core, its was a pure "f*** you" to intel, because the best intel has to offer is 32 core. Like its was purely a "put em in their place" move (speaking in terms of consumer hardware)
lol
its good to see amd pushing intel though. intel had the market cornered for way too long and just milked it, not much innovation from them for so long
exactly (had to fix my mistakes above)
Anyone else had a hard time getting credit cards to work with discord?
Still extremely happy with my i9 9900k, if I was building a new pc again would probably still choose i9 over AMD. Wondering how many people will get triggered by this lol
Not a fanboy just AMD still hasn't matched Intel's single thread performance. Would rather not give my money to either of them, both shitty companies with scummy marketing
nn
Your splitting hairs in single core performance, nearly the same
Half as many cores compared to 3950x and 4 less than 3900x
Not triggered though, nor a fanboy it’s just not going to be as good of an experience with game dev. A 3900x would compile shaders quite a lot faster
You can't compare those, not even same price range as 3950x
Well it takes me about 20min to compile the engine on i9, highly doubt 3900x would be any faster
Judging from the benchmarks
That test has all the CPU’s clocked the same
You can see how amd is kicking intels butt outside of raw processing speed.
in games i9 beat them all
The thing is would you underclock your cpu?
No but what I’m trying to say is effective speed is not purely the ghz
9900k is in no way head and shoulders above a 3900x
Yes amd is more efficient, 7nm and all that
But isn't really a fair comparison when one cpu is running 1ghz slower than it should
I'd still go for the default intel + nvidia setup for gaming despite all benchmarks
1ghz slower on one core and 600mhz on the amd
Yeah you should consider amd liviu intel is really doing badly in comparison of value
I never had problems with neither their previous CPUs nor GPUs and I had both
They are the peak for gaming but not for production
i guess it stuck with me from back in the days when AMD was just cheaper and weaker
Yeah while intel was putting out the same quad core cpu annually lol
Amd seemed to have learned it’s ways so far
But yeah I hope they don’t return to budget quality/lesser
The thing is if amd was in intel's position they would have been doing the same, sell same cpus for years with barely any improvements
They’re announcing 4000 series desktop this month
3000 series came out in June
I don’t think it’ll do well if it’s not better on a similar scale (2700x to 3700x)
I don't plan on upgrading for the next 2 years at least, if then amd becomes king in both multi and single performance it's going to be my choice
9900k isn’t bad at all
Just wouldn’t claim it to be better than other things in its price category rn
Also where I live everything is overpriced, i9 cost me 1100$ here which makes me rethink my life choices
we gotta also consider the benchmark software to be biased towards certain brands.
Eh it’s usually intel that benefits from having adobe specific boost hardware
And bias is usually because they have way more threads unless intel is blatantly cooling things wrong lol
Userbenchmark or whatever limits their benches to 4 cores now
You know how silly that is? Lol
Thing has 32 cores and they are comparing 8
and what do we trust?
I'm curious what CPUs we will have in 2 years lol
because in this one intel is clearly above
I9 9900k has a big plus over amd tho
It can be used as a room heater in winter
The 500 dollar intel beats out the 2000 dollar thing with four times as many cores running at “slightly” slower speeds?
Site is a joke now lol
i guess all benchmarking is kind of a joke. put the software open source and let's see the real results.
that is defenitely biased towards intel
They also misreport pcie4 rates
also the amount of benchmarks done is a factor. in 160k becnhmarks you'll have thousands of super-optimized builds
Which is something intel doesn’t have
with AMD at nearly 500 benchmarks submitted
But they’re only testing 8 of 32 cores
yeah...
I like pie.
10700k sounds like it’ll dethrone 9900k
But I’m wondering if ryzen4000 series will beat them to it
In terms of playing games I mean
Will there be games in 2020?
I think so
Starting to look like doom eternal will come out but we’ll see
It sounds like what’s been happening is it ends up being that you have to allocate time for play testing. It can’t be predetermined how long such thing would take
It’s nice because at e3 you get to pretend like your game is coming out way earlier than it will
It will be released the same time Karol makes a game.
what is that tired thing
A prelude to the mythical realm of "sleep" i keep hearing about.
I always Thread.Sleep(2000);
Not 28800?
E3 got cancelled
No E3 without Geoff Keighley
ahh that must be why everything keeps giving errors
Im expecting you all to make amazing games for when the quarantine is over
No blaming conventions getting in the way so you're all out of excuses -_-
damn what is happening on russia side
@soft night what u mean?
there have being lots of booms on this morning
they could train near border or something
ok boomer
Just say "Oi, knock it off!"
yeah nah cant
i got similar reports on city facebook group
sure, no problem. after step 1 just follow up with the next step
baby steps or adult steps?
depends on the step size
only if you know the volocity and any force changes

@fluid bloom what u mean neckbeard stuff
oh wow so thats what u meant https://i.imgur.com/6YLjaIx.png
Shave chin beard but let that neck grow freely right?
I think "neckbeard" in this context refers to the misogyny
"obsessive interest in computing" lol what does that even mean
makes sense urist i wasn't scrolled up high enough
@fluid bloom no borders or lines about that neckbeard
Time to go to Italy!
time to go space
Invest in the stock market.
imagine going to ISS with corona virus
@hearty cliff 3900x is a great choice
alternative in same price range would be the 9900k (I don't know if this is still true on price)
But 3900x is the clear winner in if your game developing, would go with 9900k if your exclusively game playing
single thread advantage isnt that big
not at all
like your gaming experience on a 3900x is going to be butter
they just asked about things in similar price range
amd wil prolly give the better bang atm
Yeah I do both, but right now I have a i5-6600k so either is going to better, but I am in school for game dev since it's what I want to do
So I would rather set myself up for that
its way more better value with the 3900x yeah
the i5 has been doing me well for about 2 years
66 is still decent
nah
just for rendering it is sooooooo slow
If your still on a quad core in game dev its time to upgrade
depends on what ya do 😛
The majority of games though still utilize about 4
i would go as far as to say, they demand it
yes games
but game dev, more cores
Is working with UMG on an i7-920...
for sure
it can still sculpt, as long as u dont need to compile shaders all the time it can be fine for a lot of things
like anims and BPS
logic stuff
i'm not saying you can't live life on quad core still
but thing is that the arms race for core count has been dormant for almost a decade
also means if u can hold for 6 months ur cpu wil gain a bunch of UPC and Hz again
things are only going to get worse trying to stay on quad core while everyone advances to 8, 16, 32, 64
IPC
well waiting for the next thing is always something
i would have sticked with my 4770k for another gen if it didnt break 😛
that bench shows what your saying about ipc very well
3600 with mobo and ram only set me back like 450$ so if u dont go all out its not too bad
all the cpus are clocked the same there
tbh
4770k to anything recent even a r5
it should feel night and day even though the literal operating frequency may not be much difference
i dont trust the corona 1.3 benchmark 😛
yea its way faster
but also UE4 and faster ram
So basically the 3700x is better than the 3900x...
ram speed is more than double aswel
based on what Quix Mix Mao?
Based on that link.
but the IPC gain over this short time is crazy
higher is better in some of these and lower is better in some of these
3700x is generally not ahead of 3900x unless i missed one
I mean for how close the 3700 is to a lot of the graphs you could argue for the price it's better, but statistically, it's overall better
the 3700x is meant to directly compete with the 9900k yeah
which it does well in specifically the cost difference and coming with cooling yeah
where the 3900x is the entry r9
there wasnt really a discount for cores when goin a tier up when checked
like 2 6cores same price as a 12 core
yea prolly 😛
render farms are great and all but they are a lot of nonsense compared to just having a computerlab in a box
it both has some advantages 😛
altho its just the core price not mobo and other stuff
kinda bummed my old mobo died, could have used it for other stuff
its a good deal when you compare it to the 3970x at 2000 dollars when its double the cores and effectively the same speed
Fix it.
did the caps go or what?
the bios got fried or something
i think it was some auto update from some msi mobodriver thing
thats an easy fix compared to caps
i bricked my router with a bad flash
yea i didnt even flash it, so its totally weird
and these things usually have procedures for unbricking via a diagnostic link and ssh
was able to unbrick it
Mmm, all those cores.
Definitely looking at going with Ryzen 9 for my next workstation upgrade.
i'm interested to see what comes from intel
10700k might be a return to grace for i7
but yeah r9 is probably gonna remain the option
I don't expect anything from them that can compete on price-to-performance ratio.
The 3900x looks incredible for the price.
I don't either but I do imagine they have quite a security amount of profit they could drop on the chips if they wanted to compete
Quite possible. Will be interesting to see what their next lineup looks like for sure.
we're way past due for some branding beyond the i series
go back to pentium or something cool. lol
Their latest chips have terrible, confusing branding. What is up with that? 😩
lol the ten seven seventy k
Ice Lake and Comet Lake have awful naming conventions.
or the ten thousand seven hundred k
Does an Int / float get rounded up or down :> ?
better than 1660ti which reads like: Yeah this is cheap shit, its not worth that 1000 abstract number increase, its worth about 540 of those
Hahah yeah.
I give Xbox a lot of shit for their branding, but I think this is worse.
ye lol
xbox one ten x
The PS5 logo looks fine, and I immediately know what it is.
It's just the PS4 logo, but they changed it to a 5 lol
ah PS5 is not bad, i thought you meant the playstation logo
Xbox, on the other hand, is transitioning from Xbox One X to Xbox Series X. 
they've done it again guys
FOR THE RECORD: I'm totally fine with the logo, it's just funny to me that at Sony's conference it was pretty much the only new thing revealed, and it's basically exactly what everyone was expecting anyway lol
this was originally on my twitter: htt...
I think the PS5 logo is fine. It works, it's obvious, it's clear.
and everyone will be like my iphone ten s plus is no xbox one ten series ten
It's just that the new logo doesn't actually scream new to me
I guess that is the theory behind it
i believe ps4 has a brand problem personally'
The PS5 logo is probably a good indicator that they want it to feel familiar.
it was so great but then pspro made it irrelevant
tapped the brakes too much on it
Like there was a change from PS3 to PS4 and there were some great changed between the two
How does PS4 Pro make the PS4 irrelevant? Most people don't need a PS4 Pro.
it makes it irrelevant by being utterly pointless and behind xbox
I don't understand what you mean.
most people don't need a ps4 pro because they aren't worth it
so now the whole ps4 family has been trailing xbox one x for years
Oh, I thought you were saying the Pro made the original PS4 irrelevant.
nah, just that they aren't competing anymore
In what way is PS4 trailing Xbox? Raw specs?
Raw gaming experience yeah
It seems like they are just shooting for different audiences now
Certainly not sales or market share. This has been a great generation for PlayStation.
xbox one x is easily hands down the most powerful thing out there. its not even a contest between ps4 pro and x so if your someone looking for the best experience it has n't been ps4 in a long time
Like they used to butt heads like crazy, but now they have different end-goals it seems
PlayStation and Xbox have always targeted different audiences.
Like it's much more obvious what they are wanting
That depends on whether you equate raw power with "the best experience". For some, PlayStation's UX, catalog, or both, may easily trump anything Xbox has to offer.
Perhaps I just never noticed it in older gen consoles
Yeah its just every other console generation the baton of caring of the players experience and focus on game gets passed in exchange of dominating your living room, starting some video delivery service, and focusing on tv entertainment in general
Xbox one X mostly makes up for all the mistakes they made in being confident about their audience following them anywhere they want to go.
where PS3 did the same thing the previous entire generation in exchange for bluray dominance
PS3 was a poor generation for Sony. I wouldn't compare it to the Xbox One X, either.
I would 100% compare it to the Xbox One (non x lol) though
Why? It's from a different generation.
In terms of clearly putting the core experience to the side for some other endeavor
Ah, I see.
I wish all versions of the PS3 would have remained backwards comp
Kinect 2 wasn't cheap
Fortunately I can throw a PSX game into my PS3, but there were some great PS2 games that I own and would love to play again without having to own another system
Or purchase again digitally and use up space that already gets used so quickly from the massive size of games now
Did they say PS4 will play on PS5 yet?
Last I read it won't
Don't know if there has been anything different, but I highly doubt it
I know they said cutting out the ps2 support on the later in life ps3 was for cost reduction
But how much more would it have costed vs their profits. I bet many more people would have continued to stick with Playstation for that one reason
I haven't read anything about backwards compat on PS5.
i imagine for some studios its more cost effective to sell something that is backwards compatible than have to compete with backwards compatibility in a reboot or remake
I know I was super upset when I got my PS3 and realized it wasn't back comp
I do wonder if the plan all along with last of us was to release it right at the end of the console's life
like its a great game and the ps4 version is good but it bugs me a bit
Oh you just bought The Last of Us on PS3, but now you want a PS4 and the ability to play your PS3 game on it??
yep
Ps4 has a much better experience and environment for gaming. Especially when you look at Xbox one's cluttered inane UI and fragmented services. Overall Sony has the better setup they just keep making unfathomably poor decisions.
@rare sparrow are you still working on the road thing?
and Mike, I would agree that ps4 had the better experience
until everything ran and looked way better on xbox one x
ps4 ui is too complex
I think it's much simplier than what Xbox has. It's literaly a single menu bar with a scrolling row of icons below it.
I hate Xbox's UI
It's design is a symptom of the whole gaming, blending, slow cooking, all in one philosophy they were tied to.
Where as PS4 is 100% focused on gaming
was
Sure, but still mostly.
Sony just keeps botching everything. Like VUE was hands down the best streaming service but they made bad choices with cutting channels and packages and killed it.
Today I feel like my game is disolving in a slow cooker
wish nintendo would take consoles serious again
I wish they'd stop trying to find a new gimmick and just make a good console
make the hardware the gimmick like everything before wii
My kids still play the Wii.
now we are just spoon fed nearly the same thing from both competitors
yea ps and xbox are basically the same
Its hard to think of nintendo not trying to put another screen on something or some weird controller
well xbox one x is noticeably better
id love to make something for a wii U sorta console
and ps4 was noticably better than xbox one
the a-symetric gameplay was super dope
They keep comprimising to do those things though and it kills their market share. Although, last time I looked the switch was gaining and gettting close in market share.
I do prefer the xbox one but I wish they'd stop dogging us on these low storage options out of the box
If I had kids I can't see me every buying them an Xbox or Playstation... What do they have, maybe two or three games total that are child appropriate?
well i bought the wiiU for the price of a preorder full DLC game
and its some cool hardware
sliding a console into some landing bay to play on the big screen
and most likely the new xbox will probably be strictly cloud storage because cloud is the cool new hotness
They have games, but the Wii has things like Kirby
they have supr cool games
Sony has the a couple of good series for kids but yeah not enough.
I don't see how something can be super practical and gimmicky at the same time, Mr. Soulless Pat.
Now buttons on phones, that's a gimmick.
yeah nintendo will always be the most family-oriented system
well WiiU
Because it's not as good as a dedicated console
for people who want to couch co-op
But you can't take a dedicated console to your office at work.
But its not a dedicated console
maybe you can't :p
its a portable that plugs into tvs
As a teacher, I can tell you that half the teachers in my office spend more time playing Nintendo Switch that doing actual school stuff.
"Trust us console lovers this is totally a console"
I'd rather just have the best console myself. Idc, if it's portable.
there was this one wiiU game that used the controller as a mobile phone and shit like that
my phone can do this though, is it a video game console?
those ROG phones are fucking awesome
they are, and they are more useful as mobile devices too
I'd touch someone's winky for one
If Nintendo were to come out with just a console, no new controllers with belly button motion plugs or whatever I'd buy three at least.
lol
lol if ur buying pc hardware and dont like gaming, the branding must be horrible
That is basically like saying, "My plate can also hold rice, so bowls are impractical"
Another item on the market being able to do something does not have anything at all to do with the discussion of whether a feature is practical or a gimmick.
are bowls plates though?
i usually eat my rice from a plate
No... I literally just taught my 2nd grade Chinese students the difference between dishes...
lol
Everything should be eaten out of a waffle cone.
i just mean when they say its a console that can move, no
introduce them to the spork. turn their world upside down
I personally only play games on a desktop PC. I personally don't like using a laptop for anything unless it is my only option, I never even owned a laptop until 2016.
Last console I owned was an Xbox 360, last portable console I owned was a Gameboy Color.
But, I also have eyes.
And I can see other people that exist.
And it is clear that many people have a lot of use for the Nintendo Switch.
I've got 4 kids from 18 to 3. We've got at least 2 of most of the consoles, mutliple DSs etc...
get them into tablet gaming
When over half the teachers in my office are playing Nintendo Switch instead of working, it is pretty evident that it is a practical thing to play for someone who is a teacher and not a game designer like myself.
yeah i'm not saying switch is pointless at all but, was just saying the gimick of it beyond it being essentially a smart phone with removable joysticks and stand is that it connects to a tv
I'm not saying that either, I'm saying I'd rather have a dedicated portable and a dedicated console
like excellent games on it, that can only be found on it
if you're gonna use the witch as a portable, better be real; delicate with it
But it isn't a gimmick. It is a core feature that has carved Nintendo a major spot in the industry.
the thing is literally called switch
and they just released a portable only version of it
It's still lowest by market share, unless that's changed. Nintendo should have more market share given the IPs they own and the games they have.
switch lite: now with no switch
Yeah, thought about getting one but the price difference isn't really sufficient to make it apealing.
and then it can't play all the games the switch can
I'm hopeful it means a straight up console is in the works, but not that hopeful
the switch lite is good for people who want a 2nd portable only unit for like online stuff
ah,
I don't like having to take the time to figure out what games it can and can't use
is it though? is it primarily the battery life difference?
I thought it was just the new Gameboy...
lol
for example I have a switch modded that I use for all my offline stuff. The lite I use for online only like Dauntless, diablo 3, warframe and other online games
do you just keep the modded one docked at all times?
ah, we still use the Wii moded with gamecube and old school NES controllers
yea u can use the wiiU for all sorts of remote controll stuff too
what can you mod on the switch?
everything kinda
the modded one is docked and undocked, mainly docked using a mayfair to control it with a ps4 controller lol
NIce, not familiar but those controllers have always put me off the switch
real mods are done on the powerglove tho
nvidia forgot to remove the debug switch (not really of course, they knew it was there)
nitendo stuff allways been good for modding
wasnt it the gameboy advanced to was used to unlock features in some cars?
that zelda savegame hack was weird aswell
i didnt touch my wiiU, its a collectors item 😛
when the remote gets busted its 1 less wiiU in the world
i'm looking for foot pedals that can be mapped to work in non-gaming apps, any ideas?
on windows?
yes
xinput is pretty simple of an api to integrate
which most 360, one wheels and pedals are compatible with
most of these run the pedals through the wheel though
Midi one?
midi would work too
btw offline, compile nodes are nuts
i keep running into things in houdini that i should have known existed before hand lol
nice
Houdini is heavy. Compile nodes suck. Rigging is slow. Expressions are even worse spaghetti than blueprints on worst day.
Of course you not gonna complain if you not gonna make system that uses 30-40 custom digital assets with ton of attributes etc.
If you have a node with 10 outputs and each will output modified geometry from input, node have to create copy of this geometry 10 times.
that explains my 32gb of memory use
But being able to nail uv layout with a unpack and pack around it in a threaded nature is nice.
Idk what is up with the uv nodes constantly crashing too
They do? I don't use them. never liked built in UV solution.
as soon as they start merging grains in the readout, if you press escape it eventually crashes houdini in the two versions i've tried so far
and yeah super time intensive, i have to take a look at rizom stuff for sure, but i'm not sure how / if that would work with the houdini engine plugin?.
Wait, are you saying Houdini can automate UV unwrapping or I am just reading that with wishful thinking.
yeah mike but it is slow'ish
Is it anywhere near decent though? Unwrapping is like a special circle of hell
Oh, Rizom stuff is still a while before it will be available, and even then I still don't have it working with compilable blocks. That's not a priority of v1.0.
thats a 3 pixel pack with separation to space them
um.... nightmare fuel
funny thing is the coverage there is actually really good
pretty much perfect surface area to coverage
but yeah idea of making nodes in native land for houdini sounds really cool
I'm going to take a look at it again. Last time I looked was still early and rigging was still rough and hardly any documentation for it.
turning on that compliable icon is revealing
thats how i do it, seam, flatten, layout if i have an hour
I don't have anything anywhere close to that complex though. It'd probably be much faster for the 15k max tri models I use most often.
yeah
you can let it get more imaginative with layout to make up for that haha
have it try many more angles of rotation etc
That's equivalent in Rizom, left is completely custom, right shorter
Do you know which license is equivalent to indie if you're over the 100k?
idk the differnce between core,FX, engine
No, LAB are Digital Assets that are simply a bridge to standalone editor.
So you need standalone.
sorry here i mean
ah ok
oh wow, so no standalone in needed for what you're working on?
I have more than 30 SOPs, 14 VOPs, 20 HScript commands, 19 VEX ones, 18 Python, 13 visualizers.
jesus lol
Yeah, no need.
I was tempted when I saw some link of Tetris trick with UVs. A joke.
lol
I had to write some vex just to measure coverage the other day
even though auto uv shows the value under its node, it does not expose it.
UV coverage ?
yeah
I have tile layout, real one, so
very nice
@signal citrus Sort of. I've rebuilt it so many times now. I'm definitely getting closer to a point where I like it
The current iteration I'm trying to make it more modular and make each lane separate blueprints. Then, have another blueprint that's like a container for them in a way
@red basin was looking for tips and i remembered some of your posts here, looked really good
on road related things
Oof my crash reporter just crashed
I think discord support just says they are going to manually clear pending charges that failed to brush people off and then does nothing but wait for them to clear out over a few days.
Ah yeah I was trying to find examples of your work on roads ConverseFox but was unable to.
Just wanted a general heading for how best to manage it before diving in, Cranz suggested splines and I’m thinking splines filling gaps while static mesh take end points, joints, and junctions
Thats not how it works @pearl compass
halo is a weird game
the shooting is not very satisfying due to all enemies being bullet sponges 😄
maybe it's just reach, but I remember the original halo on PC being just as annoying 🤔
Its weird how heavily headshot that game is
I enjoy it though
Three head tap is hard
never understood halo
the most generic fps there can be
i always thought people who liked it never played any other fps
back in ye olde working in an office days you where either pro or anti halo, and we often flame eachother when we messed up gamedev-wise.
"you missed this because you didnt play halo"
"what can you expect from someone who likes halo"
:DDD hahaha classic
do u think halo stole the idea of the "halo" from ZOE?
when i was young i was sure it was a ripoff
but its not a new idea
iunno, never played halo besides 15 minutes before turning it off
lol
He's in Australia too D:
Here Mr Hanks sign my I got coronavirus from the academy tshirt
not mr. hanks
Do you have coronavirus yet, Mr. Olympus?
I have a collection of virii Im keeping for a rainy day
damn cool pluralization
pleurisy 😛
Pretty wild if true, but frankly, I never believed in the product.
That’s the finger sensor thing that works bad right?
lmfao
Ah, yeah wrong one. This is the AR goggles thing.
Big promises that never really materialized, unfortunately.
I remember watching a launch keynote for it and seeing a lot of red flags.
The presentation was mostly talk and they barely even had a product to show, save for some brief clips that were not even real.
They own patents or something?
Not sure, but boy did they make it sound like they were making something Earth-shattering.
Better than unlimited detail?
[HD version of the other video]
Hi everyone. We've been working very hard and we hope you like what we've made. This is just our 1 year report, after which we will probably go quiet again while we finish our work. This demo only shows what was ready at the time, we have a lot...
I remember the presentation being filled with language like "Reality is just the beginning" and "we can build intuitive interfaces wherever we want them".
Oh, and "This is the stuff of science fiction."
statements that can’t be satisfied
you should see their latest demo for pulling their point cloud data into Unity, it looks like complete turd
A turd of many molecules?
if it had many molecules itd atleast be a polished turd
Polished turd is still turd
they probably get all excited when they see a spike from us linking their stuff 😛
Happy New Year and to celebrate a new decade Euclideon Engineers have been busy playing with Unity to bring you a sneak preview of a couple of demos we have written to show how you can incorporate Euclideon's Unlimited Detail Point Cloud rendering into your Unity projects usin...
I regret linking it but I worry I say old people things that require it sometimes lol
cant wait for their game, its going to be amazeballs
"but if you get the channel tunnel to the UK, and then fly over, its fine"
what I do is let hackers steal my passwords, but I log everytime they do with a metasploit. Then when I forget my password, I just email them and save money on those "password database" software apps that store all your pwds 😄
we should all just get infected, then we dont have to worry about it anymore
as long as my cows dont catch it
I just hope they don't shut the schools. Its the only peace and quiet I get in the daytime :/
ooh... unlimited detail... that's a blast from the past
speaking of that, anyone have any info regarding Dreams supposedly being 100% rendered with distance fields?
No.
Substance launcher now show Substance integrations
Luos I told he about stay in the island, but well...
hi lounge..
if I have a quickthought like "call helmet cams from other players onto own screen" .. where would I yell at ppl to do that? 😛
hahahaa
what you did
I said they were overreacting when they said they put people on parole if they comment anything about how dangerous coronavirus is
and that people panic too much already
yeah, I totally didn't like the ping either 😄
😭engine
😢 🚀
parole wtf, so youre making crytek number plates now or somethin
I'm fascinated that Lumberyard is still a thing
Is it only Star Citizen propping it up these days, or are other projects using it too?
and I'd love to read the details about the Amazon/CryEngine deal in 10-20 years time and see what the fuck actually went down
oh and there is stream coming some fantasy battlefieldstuff https://magazine.substance3d.com/fantasy-battlefield-15-new-materials-with-enrico-tammekand/

You probably can tell: I am a big fan of the “Lord of The Rings” and “Game Of Thrones” universes, their rich environments and unique stories. The perpetual battle between good and evil inspired me to create materials. I’ve had the idea in the back of my mind for quite some ti...
oh that got me all excited
thought Id be riding dragons in conquest for a moment there
monsDragons
Dragoons
Hows that Baulders Gate 3 cinematic
I thought the Diablo 4 was good but daaamn
yeah... that's what I'd call experimental too 😄
basically, they just wanted to make me an example as I judged their moderation publicly
but yeah, it is what it is
its got Nvidia's AI denoiser built in now
if you have nvidia card of course
@stiff crystal imo, nothing is worth being silenced for criticism. Still, it's their place, let them rot in it :p
yeah, it's one thing to really go against mods and rant about it and other to mention it feels like overreaction
that being said, this is how I get banned usually if I do :p
im no expert, but it might be kinda dangerous 😛
I have authority issues if people running the show feel unreasonable
so u just have authority issues 😛
I wouldnt say not blindly listening to authority is an issue
Youre just not a sheep, which is great... more toilet paper for me hehe
tbh, there's hoarding in this residence already
wouldn't have done it myself but if it makes the other person happy...
there's a shortage of hospital beds in italia and the death toll is rising https://t.co/KS48BTiRAI?amp=1
sorry for saying redundent things but people should really stay home and wash their hands
maybe i'm overreacting but better safe than sorry etc
also, I kind of don't know how to clean the food from the supermarket, soap and water obviously but what about cardboard, metal ...
you will wash your veggies with soap?
exactly, that's an issue 😄
better safe than sorry Olento 🙂
🤦♂️
tbh, I can't even eat them raw
steam them until they're soggy
I'm allergic to raw veggies
no salt, no spices at all
so yeah, boiling or baking food kill bacteria and viruses, but doesn't it also greatly reduce vitamins and proteins ?
lots of spices lots of salt lots of that what kill vampires
I'd rather not get anaphylactic shock
so I'm fine by losing few vitamins in the process :p
I don't even like being in public, especially this time of the year when you are guaranteed to get at least flu
so there's not much that changes for me
work from home already
yeah same, just had to do several shopping sessions but aside from that not much changes
sorry, not much to say at the moment... I hope everyone is fine
I like being in public, I just hate theres other people there 😛
oh for sure, but right now imma avoid crowds even tho I love it usually
it'd be different if everyone would have an integral hazmat of course
we should all light some sage at the same time. Then we get rid of all germs forever.
if the Earth was round the virus wouldnt spread so quickly
yes
@stiff crystal how did you mnage to wrk from home?
like if i was well skilled but livedd far from job would they let me
no viruses spread faster on flat surfaces. Thats why scientists don't test anti-virals on footballs.
@zinc matrix by running my own business? when you are the boss you can make the rules 😄
not what I should
should sell hand wash + respirator masks
another wasted opportunity
meanwhile, gdcvault still haven't released 2018 videos behind the paywall :/
I hope they don't forget now that 2020 event is postponed 😄
or postpone the release to summer as well
the videos got infected with the coronavirus and had to be deleted
EA created coronavirus as a response to lootcrates being banned
monsCoronaVirus is made in MonsOöympus to make monkeys to rule the universe
Unreal Masks
monkeys already rule the universe, they use cats as enforcers
uh i'm not involved in this in any way
Thanos is coming, and coronavirus is a snap event
just that there is no avengers coming
there's a massive effort ongoing to find medication and vaccines...
Anyone uses Firefox here?
yeah
its awesome
can you check if this looks fine?
https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/index.html
new firefox, all pastel and fresh
no
looks fine to me
yep...fine on chrome tho -_-
