tulip orbit
#

ok, turning off debug string for my bitmasks raised the fps by 20fps

azure chasm
#

your first error is measuring performance in editor tho, but... yeah we all do that

tulip orbit
#

gives a rough idea

#

ok yeah now my particles are red, but world is green

azure chasm
#

a simple test to see if its that, is just disable those particles

tulip orbit
#

no particles gives 10-20fps

azure chasm
#

is it the top down game?

tulip orbit
#

yeah

#

disabled the light module in the particles, gave 10fps

azure chasm
#

yeah , tough, most marketplace assets are tuned to be seen from a different angle

tulip orbit
#

yup. Torches are the only effects from marketplace atm

azure chasm
#

to get a better framerate, use dithered temporal AA and masked shading instead of translucent

#

for the particles

#

will economize soooo much performance with that

#

for top down it makes a big difference, i had a scene like that that was just dying from transparency... switched it to this .. its a visual tradeoff sure, but most people wont notice...

#

you can also use additive instead of translucent(although ive heard ue4.25 solves all of these issues)

#

by itself

#

because they sorted translucency more efficiently

#

lmao, my game instance loads on development package, but not shipping

#

just gonna have to ship my game with the console and a bunch of print strings

tulip orbit
#

Well, I definately need a better top-down torch particle effect

#

oh well. problem for future Interitus

azure chasm
#

future task: optimization pass

#

we are trying a experimental level design technique

#

where we reduce framerates

#

in order to make you feel like time is going slower

Christ got an $80 fine for speeding 11kph (~7mph) over when the throttle jammed on my motorcycle. Weighing up if its worth appealing or just paying it 😦

#

speeding is never someones fault other than a mechanical fault, having to proof that will cost more than the fine

tulip orbit
#

Sheesh, thats a cop with too much time on his hands. Unless you were in residential...

#

but a jammed throttle isnt good either πŸ™‚

#

neither is the soft rear brakes on my bike.... practically new, under 4k kms.

Hello.

gleaming hill

Sheesh, thats a cop with too much time on his hands. Unless you were in residential...
@tulip orbit It was a speed camera, a cop wouldn't have ticketed me. Cameras have no discretion :/

#

The throttle isn't faulty, I went along a ~130km stretch of gravel road (its a sports bike with road tires) and dropped it on the throttle side, it must have gotten some debris stuck between the throttle and bar which fell into the right place to jam it

#

Sounds like you should take the bike back to the dealer btw πŸ˜„

#

I'm usually fine on gravel but it was an 11.5 hour trip and didn't realize I was zoning out πŸ˜„

#

Hit a really tight high camber turn without realizing it was coming up so entered it at 55kph, which would be pushing it if it wasn't gravel for that corner

Working on a kind of indoor space jungle conservatory. I don't really know where I'm going with my art style or with my game, it's supposed to be themed around wasps flying around a spaceship. A bit niche. Actually thinking I need to play more games and read books for ideas

There is nothing we can tell at all, is about own exploration and fail, try, improve way tbh

proven thorn
#

There isn't much description about the combat beyond just melee / shooting.

deep glen
#

less harr harr, more lounge lounge

oblique trellis
#

lol

feral kite
#

@proven thorn basically it's slower paced, guns have huge recoil and are slow to aim, melee weapons all have a basic primary attack and a secondary attack that is unique to each one (e.g. a box cutter can be stuck inside the head for an instant kill)

proven thorn
#

It's hard to tell if that is "fun" to play. I can't tell you from the description unfortunately.

#

Nothing sounds unique, but that doesn't mean it won't play uniquely.

Minister Fremault accurately identified that the 5G pilot project will not be compatible with Belgian radiation safety standards of 9 V/m, or 95 mW/m2, and has stated that she will not be making an exception.
#

the important part

#

5g is pretty damn high power

#

as far as radio waves go

tidal ivy
#

that'll be the real reason

fringe sundial
#

so it probably does need more testing

tidal ivy
#

not the conspiracy theory nutjob rubbish

fringe sundial
#

there is really only one conspiracy theory with 5g, and its that Huawei makes a lot of them

zinc matrix
#

I do want faster connection speeds but the article also complained about corporate influence in politics and surveillance

fringe sundial
#

and you really dont want a chinese state company owning your communications equipment

tidal ivy
#

I wish that were true, but there are enough people out there who believe it causes cancer, or somehow spreads coronavirus..

zinc matrix
#

I'm just conflicted because 1. I want to be able to speedily upload files online as well as quickly download them but 2. surveillance is a concern, although I admit I could do more to protect my own privacy

fringe sundial
#

its not ionizing radiation, but its still very high powered radio, so probably needs more testing

zinc matrix
#

Oh and capitalism is just cancer at this point

fringe sundial
#

and btw, the surveliance stuff is unchanged from 4g and others

zinc matrix
#

Look at the games industry for instance

deep glen
#

no clue why people want faster speeds, netflix workds fine in 4g, and a looooot of people only use their smartphones for instagram/facebook and the likes.

#

much need for 5g

fringe sundial
#

@deep glen i mean it has data caps

#

what even the fucking point

#

if you can melt your data cap in about 5 seconds

#

literally

zinc matrix
#

We can only have 10mbps upload speeds here in the UK

#

Unless you're an enterprise user

fringe sundial
#

like, what is even the point

deep glen
#

whats a datacap? :p

fringe sundial
#

of a 1000 mb a second connectoin

#

on a 2000 mb datacap

#

@deep glen phones all tend t have datacaps

#

unless its the most expensive plans

deep glen
#

i have a somewhat cheap plan, unlimited data globally

#

25,- euro

fringe sundial
#

lucky mofo

#

i pay 25 a month for my spanish telephone and itas 8 gb of datacap

deep glen
#

for the off chance I go outside the netherlands maybe once a year

fringe sundial
#

btw, in europe there is no extra charges

deep glen
#

but, I already paid off my phone so that saves money

fringe sundial
#

ive been using my spanish phone for the 1.5 years ive been in NL

zinc matrix
#

my dad is paying for my SIM atm. 10 gbp/month for 4 GB of data

fringe sundial
#

i see 5g as such a hugely pointless endeavour

zinc matrix
#

Bought the phone myself. Am in the UK

deep glen
#

but yea, I get the point. again, I dont see much reason to need such speeds

fringe sundial
#

seriously whats thepoint of a phone internet, that can spend the datacap in 3 seconds

zinc matrix
#

I just want faster upload speeds

fringe sundial
#

and 4g is fast enough

#

like, 4g is fast enough for netflix and everything

deep glen
#

then again, i dont understand why people want 1200 euro phones only to use instagram, twitter, and facebook

#

i mean wtf

fringe sundial
#

you usally dont need more than 100 mbps speeds unless you are downloading stuff or are a family with 4 netflix streams at once

zinc matrix
#

No options for increasing that with home broadband here in this country

deep glen
#

money well pissed away

fringe sundial
#

the more interesting thing is Starlink

#

that will beam internet from above

zinc matrix
#

My download speeds are fine

#

My upload speeds are terrible

#

Considering too I had to upload two UE4 projects

#

I want 100/100 but even if I had the money and were paying for it, we can only do 200/10 at most

fringe sundial
#

i dont get why phone companies are so bullish on 5g

#

i guess they just want to overcharge datacaps faster

zinc matrix
#

My parents are paying for 100/10 home broadband speeds

#

If not 5g then at least better upload speeds?

#

If we have to live with corona like this in the future better upload speeds would be a Godsend

At the Huawei store they were trying to get me to buy a 5g phone even though there is no 5g service in the area...

#

UK and US bullshit is what data caps are

#

...tried buying a Nokia?

#

Or at least a Samsung?

north torrent
#

In the US I usually buy Samsung, but anymore I just get Huawei.

zinc matrix
#

My mother's current smartphone is a Samsung (she prefers iPhones but they're too expensive) likely because of paranoia she has over Huawei

#

I don't think paranoia around Huawei is unfounded but I don't want racism to happen - some people who start opposing China get straight into racist arguments as opposed to just merely criticising the regime

north torrent
#

I walk around with my banned Huawei phone in the US like a badge of honor saying 'fuck you' to anyone who wants to buy into that garbage.

zinc matrix
#

I have bought electronics from mainland Chinese and Taiwanese companies though.

north torrent
#

Then I will constantly tease those people that my phone is spying on everything they say, so they might not want to stand too close to me.

zinc matrix

And clothes from mainland China too

#

My mobile carrier is from Hong Kong

Speaking of my mobile carrier I miss the 2000s from it - they had a segment on their mobile site that gave out free stuff to stream on occasion

Can someone tell me about the AMD Ryzen 3 3200G ? It says the memory spec is 2933MHz, which is great.. but I'm building this for a friend on a tight budget. So I am hoping this chip supports lower clocks without issue.
source: https://www.amd.com/en/products/apu/amd-ryzen-3-3200g

proud pier
#

@ember fog I have one

#

it's a great apu

ember fog
#

that is quite the coincidence

#

Does the cpu support other memory stds?

quiet narwhal
#

@ember fog slower and higher speeds should be fine. What you want to do is check the motherboard QVL/CVL list

#

note that AMD Ryzen CPU's do benefit from dual channel & the fastest memory they can support, it makes a difference with them

ember fog
#

I notice also that a lot of boards specify they support a xyz generations of ryzen chips. Is the socket type no longer sufficient to tell compatibility?

plucky pagoda
#

From my experience, which is limited, it can mean that it might need a bios update to use it.

#

Which if you don't have a processor to boot the board with can be a problem.

ember fog
#

lol, ya that'd be an issue

#

I wonder if I should bother looking for a board that supports higher than 3 then, in case he upgrades the cpu

plucky pagoda
#

I wouldn't worry about it. Boards are cheap and if he needs to upgrade from that then a new board is probably on the table too.

ember fog
#

maybe, his budget is pretty tight

#

I gotta do what I can with $500

#

so micro atx for starters XD

#

it's funny, they used to be more expensive

plucky pagoda
#

Oh, I miss read that above. You're looking at a Ryzen3.

#

ooops.

ember fog
#

hmm I guess there is no gen 4 anyway

plucky pagoda
#

I'm use to everyone talking about the 3900 and glanced over it above.

ember fog
#

nah he's gettin a cheapo quad core

plucky pagoda
#

Yeah, I use to use full towers but anymore a micro atx is perfect for most stuff.

ember fog
#

ya my next rig myself will be something I can put on a desk

plucky pagoda
#

More stuff is on board and usually all you need is a vid card as far as slots go anymore.

ember fog
#

my last rig uses a sabertooth r3 board, and a thermaltake level 10 case which is huge and has 5 hot swap hdd bays

zinc matrix
#

i think i came up with a small idea i can work on

#

im this medieval dude with a sword and shield

ember fog
#

checks out

#

that idea can be worked on

plucky pagoda
#

Ground breaking.

zinc matrix
#

and zombies come spawning in waves and i have to beat as many waves as possible

ember fog
#

what if instead, you tried to psycho analyze the zombies, and prescribe treatments

zinc matrix
#

what you mean?

ember fog
#

well you bottle neck the waves of zombies

#

and you strap one (at a time) into a chair, then ask it about it's mother and father

quiet narwhal
#

do not rely on the socket type, AM4, to determine compatiblity. The chipset is a big part of that, for example 350 chips might not support 3rd gen ryzen. etc. Motherboard compatibility list..... memory and cpu.... need to read them

zinc matrix
#

that's too complicated

ember fog
#

too bad, I'd totally watch that on twitch

#

Alright, I'll focus my efforts into getting a good board chipset then

proud pier
#

memory list = mobo

#

not really CPU

#

but yeah, like all ryzen, faster the better

#

3200 is min

#

3600 is prime

ember fog
#

ehhh

#

I was thinking of starting guy out on 2400

#

so you know.. like 6 times faster than his memory

proud pier
#

I think I built this min spec rig for 500 or 600

#

It's linux-based also

#

didn't want to spend money on win10 (but I ended up buying license just in case)

ember fog
#

you doin the vfio?

#

oh wait you just purely use linux, no gaming?

#

I only have like 20 games that run on linux

proud pier
#

ASUS TUF B450M-PLus Gaming is the mobo I got btw

ember fog
#

well same chipset as the board I'm looking at for 114$

plucky pagoda
#

You should look over on PC parts picker they have a few Ryzen5 builds that are around $500

ember fog
#

Not sure I like this site

#

Just clicked on a ryzen 5 build that looked too good to be true, and it was.
All the hardware is listed as $0.00
the only price listed is the windows license

plucky pagoda
#

The 0s are caused by price changes or stock issues. You can edit the parts list though and find current parts prices.

ember fog
#

just seems like more work than finding the hardware directly

#

since apparently the aggregate prices can be super wrong

mossy nexus
#

apparently there are some potential issues regarding certain AMD CPUS and mobo BIOS, not being able to access the 32MB BIOS. Something to keep in mind. https://youtu.be/T5X-8vZtml8

We did a lot of digging on AMD's B450 & X470 motherboard support with Zen 3 for this in-depth research on AMD BIOS limitations (including older CPUs being unable to address 32MB).

I think i'm going to buy another game.

zinc matrix
#

i don't get why people had to get impatient and spoil the whole thing

#

so what y'all think the next epic game mystery gonna be?

#

i saw a rumor that said it was gonna be civilization 6, i hope not tbh

fathom wadi
#

apparently people are arseholes a lot of the time. Such is life.
The next game will be "Unreal Tournament 4" fully completed and polished. Or at least my dream said it would be

zinc matrix
#

lol

#

i saw a article that said may 20 civilization 6, may 28 borderlands the handsome collection and june 4th ark survivial evolved

#

im not sure tho

#

but if those are correct than im ok with it, not my favorites but pretty solid games

fathom wadi
#

I have more games than I have time to play. But being that im done for the day. Time for some Gears Tactics πŸ˜„

#

scratch that. want some first person action.

zinc matrix
#

do y'all play fps with controller or mouse and keyboard? im just curious

red pewter
#

mouse and keyboard for life!

wise smelt
#

Touchpad ||jk, mouse and keyboard||

solar nebula
#

I wrote a simple realtime cooperative scheduled multitasking OS for this xD

red pewter
#

Things got pretty dicey there for a moment, lol

solar nebula
#

The flip at like 5:37 xD

#

It's totally fine and there was no threat from that

red pewter
#

very cool

solar nebula
#

But there was no way for me to generate commands that would keep it steady at that point

#

Same with the instability in control at 6:40

#

There was no way for me to keep controls running smooth and modify the required guidance parameters at the same time without weird discrepancies xD

#

So the autopilot is clearly tuned to the lower speeds and lower altitudes in that flight mode

#

You know, the feeling of having your spacecraft finally be lined up with a runway after a very complex long spaceflight is incredible xD

red pewter
#

yeah, can't wait for KSP 2

solar nebula
#

It legitimately does verify the engine performance before the spacecraft is released from the launch pad xD

#

I check strain sensors on the rocket to make sure the engines are producing an estimated level of thrust

#

I've had multiple launch aborts due to some issue

#

This also does have abort modes

#

Supports ditching, return back to launch site & manual abort to orbit

red pewter
#

all automatically? wow

solar nebula
#

Semi-auto aborts

#

Autopilot stabilizes you for ditching and landing, but you have to steer it manually

#

Same as on the real shuttle

#

Mostly because aborts have too wide of an envelope and developing the software for it is harder than training the pilots xD

red pewter
#

yeah, I guess when it comes down to it having a person inside who knows what levers to pull beats out a riskier solution

solar nebula
#

That ascent goes a little funny just because of KSP scale and how simple of an algorithm drives it xD

#

Because I had to lock angles for stage separation, it has to do some over-correction

red pewter
#

I think if KSP was more realistic it would just frustrate noobs like me

solar nebula
#

I previously done all this same stuff on a realistic simulator (that I wrote lol)

#

I was a teenager at the time so I did my best with what I could 😐

red pewter
#

well, thanks for showing me this neat stuff

solar nebula
#

No worry, I post it in lounge from time to time xD

#

@fathom wadi I will try to make Unreal style classic FPS but with Uncharted style action story with small budget πŸ˜„

#

Total Flop is coming completed %15.

north torrent
#

Your going to make one level?

vast heron
#

40 level game with co-op 4 players. You are an adventurer trying to solve a mystery.

north torrent
#

First person shooters are probably the easiest thing to make. Almost everything in that regard is already made for you.

vast heron
#

yes i already bought some blueprints to use πŸ˜„

#

I modified some of them disabled HP regen etc. Carrying 12 guns at same time like classic arena fps

north torrent
#

A lot of it is already in the engine by default... just have to open it up... But there are certain aspects that some good marketplace assets could be useful.

vast heron
#

I will buy Sci-Fi Armor Pack for enemy cyborg soldiers

north torrent
#

But you can't make a 40 level Uncharted style action adventure game on a small budget.

vast heron
#

Each level made by me.

north torrent
#

So you want to finish your game in 2040?

vast heron
#

Levels are not that big

#

Each level will took a week to finish.

north torrent
#

Also, Uncharted's big selling point is how cinematic it is, something that doesn't really blend well with a first person camera.

#

Nobody can make an Uncharted quality level in a week. Not even Naughty Dog.

vast heron
#

Half-Life style story telling i will choose. But story is not about Aliens.

#

I will not make quality stuff

north torrent
#

So your Uncharted style action adventure isn't going to resemble Uncharted in any way, shape, or form.

Ok.

vast heron
#

It will have action story

#

No cutscenes

#

also third person support

#

optional

#

there are dialogues for npcs

north torrent
#

If you want to make an oldschool first person shooter game with lots of environments to shoot through on a small budget, that seems very doable.

#

Not sure why you need 40 levels, but it seems like you could rush through them and make a bunch if you aren't looking for quality or unique aspects between them.

vast heron
#

my budget is 50K, I will start after i finish my work. I will quit my job.

#

Levels are as big as De_Dust2.

#

They are walking and story areas between areas.

#

10 hour long story is not high for FPS.

#

My storyline is 10 hours of shooting through arenas

#

I wanted make a long game but i guess 20 levels with more quality will be better but than game will be a 5 hour game.

north torrent
#

20 levels for a 5 hour game...

#

So 15 minutes per level?

#

What is your definition of a level?

But you are going to re-use environments, right?

vast heron

There are Flying Robots, regular soldiers, turrets, tanks and helicopters in every level.

I will re-use some parts but no copy paste.

These are Military Outposts you clear out military locations and capture them and progress story

Containers, Shipping Crates, Barrels, Walls etc. things like that will be re-used but buildings etc. will be different.

Also, Uncharted's big selling point is how cinematic it is, something that doesn't really blend well with a first person camera.
There are movies entirely shot in first person perspective - cloverfield, grave encounters, hardcore henry.

Bad movies, Mr. Vicbay.

Even Alfred Hitchcock tried to do a movie in a similar way, and the main thing he learned from it is why we make use of all these other tools in cinematography... because it sucks when you have to film from one perspective...

I do like coffee...

hasty cargo

its one of the worlds treasures

north torrent
#

I was thinking about making a game that involved money laundering, bunnies, and coffee...

#

Maybe some currency manipulation and a steam train as well.

hasty cargo
#

well a coffee addicted gangster launders money in stuffed bunnies

north torrent
#

The mafia that I write about in some of my short stories actually has a shoe company as a front. They use giant bunnies to deliver shoes to people, but inside said shoes you will find the smuggled booze.

#

It is sort of the industrial revolution, so having rubber on the bottom of shoes is kind of the new cool thing.

hasty cargo
#

haha

#

so high fantasy and gritty gang related at the same time

#

only a manga could produce this

north torrent
#

Nothing fantasy about it.

hasty cargo
#

i thought you mean giant bunnies like some strange creature

north torrent
#

Simply biology.

#

They don't use any sort of magic to make the bunnies big, they just evolved that way over the years.

#

It is closer to sci-fi that just so happens to be in the industrial revolution.

hasty cargo
#

that would make for some nice looking art style

north torrent
#

The leader of the mafia pretends to be magic, but it is all just science that is beyond the very limited knowledge of the uneducated public.

hasty cargo
#

my personal project is forever failing at field to forest transitions

#

kingdom come deliverance set the bar of natural transitions way up high

#

I guess its more leaving it up the proc foliage spawners will never get a real natural effect

north torrent
#

Why would trees grow in one area and not grow in another?

hasty cargo
#

i think there is many many factors for that

north torrent
#

Exactly.

#

Look at why there is a transition and put the transition in the right place.

#

I don't know as much about rolling hills and flat planes, but for my environment it is all about the rivers and how the downcutting of the water has shaped the mountain ecosystem over generations.

hasty cargo
#

oh

#

im running off satelite data

#

so the transitions are where they need to be, it's just a matter of how they are executed

#

so the procedural foliage spawner (I think) lacks the ability to place the less mature foliage at the edges of the area

#

I think this is why in kingdom come deliverance they hand painted the foliage

north torrent
#

You would have to figure out a way for the generator to know that the area was the edge of the forest.

hasty cargo
#

I think the best but least efficient way would be to have a seperate layer / spawner of a transition phase which spawns edge / less mature foliage

#

but yeah at the expense of adding an aditional layer

pearl elk
#

You guys should visit the edge of a forest for reference

#

typically its from land clearing not because the forest grew so big πŸ˜›

#

very hard transitions, its rarely soft

mild root
#

@hasty cargo study biomes

#

Biology is answer

#

To understanding of life

#

🀣

#

But really, you can procedurally calculate transition area

#

I don't know how you handle that, but in texturing you can detect edge by overlaying the same mask on top, shifting it by few pixels and calculating difference

#

Do that three times with angle 120

#

And you will get edge data

hasty cargo
#

good tip!

#

I think I figured it, maybe

#

using layer weights on the foliage, so the mature tree's only spawn on 1.0 and immature can spawn on below .5 and have soft transition phases

mild root
#

Also there are other methods of edge detecting, look into procedural texturing. But artists manipulate premade function nodes, and you need to code, I assume

fluid bloom
#

yes, study how forests are layered in real life

north torrent
#

And just because a satelite says it should be one way doesn't mean that's what looks most natural to the eye.

hollow hatch
#

UE5 BABY

#

WOO

pearl elk
#

I think what happens more on the edges is younger trees but they are less dense, you get a further scattering then eventually that area gets denser over time so you get trees of varying ages together. Its why man made forests look so fake vs natural

#

but with the edges of the denser bit it tends to be formations or some sort of natural barrier which prevents it growing further like rock, rivers, mountains, roads

pearl elk
#

I think in general there are a few scenarios which arnt suited to games, for example I was attempting to capture an Australian desert. The wide openness is problematic, do I cull and use fogging to fake it? I can exaggerate the hills but there is just so much distance, even if I scale the real area down I end up with a huge view distance because theres no real horizon rolling over.

#

Best I can think of is like water, do a fake ground which rolls to the horizon and blends to the real landscape. Ideally I would want loading zones to bring in different skyboxes to really enhance the landmarks for navigation.

hasty cargo
#

yeah far viewdistances are a nightmare

#

theres sometimes no artistic solution, so gotta use low cost proxies and stuff

pearl elk
#

It would be really cool if there were a technical solution, unfortunately the UE5 demo had a quite small FOV in the crevice at the end there. Tall mountains is a common trick to cutting and with nice blockers

hasty cargo
#

you know how it is with tech demos tho

#

look at infiltrator its still not realistic performance wise imo

That water in the UE5 demo though, its abit funny that UE2 had that

that actually got ported to ue4 for a while there, highly unstable though

#

fluidsurfaces bug me, if they aren't high resolution wavelets, I feel you get more realistic results with some well made particle fx

#

those low res ones end up looking like honey or something

pearl elk
#

One thing I am curious about though is with this audio system stuff, like using sound to drive a water material or somethin πŸ™‚

#

You could just play the footstep audio loud for eg and it creates ripples in the vertex shader

#

Being linked to Niagara will make a huge difference too, Im curious about vector fields influenced by music for eg, could be really crazy for some alien firefly shit

solid aurora
#

the water in UE5 was not communicated well enough

#

it is fully volumetric

#

and simulated fluid

#

that was the point of showing it

pearl elk
#

all 2 inches of it, volumetric

#

still saw that in BL2

solid aurora
#

still it was not flat plane

#

that would be better probabaly to show it ;p

north torrent
#

I'm going to try that with beer.

pearl elk
#

they have Chaos Fields, that should hit before UE5

solid aurora

I just hope the volumetric framework will be in far better state for U5 release

can't wait for fully volumetric dynamic clouds

and fire ;d

Yeah the tools around some of that took ages to come online

in 4.25 it is still dead slow

its always that price (give or take) its up to you, but I personally dont really see the value in these packs

With Megascans, Texture Haven, and CC0 Textures, I don't see any reason to buy textures unless I need something very specific, which is not what you get in a pack.

I also have a ton of unused points on Substance Source.

Between Substance Designer, QixMix, and all the free stuff out there, I can't see myself needing anything I don't already have.

#

U am painting and I am so bored, I could be at home crying about math right now

QixMix is a great way to just grab an asset out of the Quixel library and quickly edit it to fit the style of your game and then throw it in.

For the kind of things that just sit in the background and you don't want to waste the time opening up Blender and making a pile of firewood or whatever.

#

QixMix can make it look like it is somewhat hand painted in a few minutes.

#

You can use other textures in QixMix, Mr. Ponkkis.

#

These are the kind of tools I needed back in 2012...

#

I remember back before normal maps and we would go into Photoshop and hand paint shadows onto a texture... I really hated that kind of stuff...

This procedural stuff is so much better.

@deep glen @north torrent Hi yes I am using marketplace assets, quixel megascans, bridge/mixer, cc0textures etc. But I was finding a huge library for 3d models. I followed the link I got a 59 dollar 1 yr unlimited downloads at cgaxis (original price they say is 349$). What I really want is the 3d models for my interior and landscape scene. I just bought it right now, 59 dollars for the whole year. I was really scared, but yeah I got all the 3d models plus the textures. Aside from unreal format they have other 3d formats as well. But I agree with @deep glen regarding such kind of advertising.

#

I went for it since I am not a good 3d modeller etc. hehe But I love making 3d scenes. It is a 1 yr subscription, so I am trying to get all the stuff I need.

north torrent
#

I don't know much about downloading 3d models, but it sounds like it could be helpful for blocking out a level.

You will probably want to edit the textures in QixMix or something so you can make all your assets fit the project.

#

But I would just block out how you want your level to work first before worrying about that stuff.

That's kind of a polish thing.

Other team are infected trying to go out of the prison and spread the virus

#

using AK47s and Uzis

#

Also there will be patients must be protected, if all of the patients die than doctors loose

#

Atleast this story better than Last of Us Part 2

solar nebula
#

I have a different game idea

#

How about a game where you can do literally anything

vast heron
#

Like ARMA 3 Altis Life

#

that exists

solar nebula
#

You can't divorce a wife in ARMA3

#

So it's not quite there yet

vast heron
#

I can. just watch me RP

solar nebula
#

It's not your real wife, but your roleplaying wife

vast heron
#

I can use a RPG that will be over.

solar nebula
#

Your wife will literally respawn

vast heron
#

Respawns but there are server rules like New Life Rule.

#

If Roleplayers not follow rules admin going to kick them.

solar nebula
#

Only squares follow the NLR

vast heron
#

Atleast in Serious Roleplay servers, everything has consequences.

solar nebula
#

The experience of DarkRP shows that the primary goal of such roleplaying is to break NLR in the most effective way and not get noticed by the admin

vast heron
#

yeah that's right.

#

You must be creative, silent and fast go under the radar. Also some friends to lie if you cought.

solar nebula
#

Precisely

vast heron
#

I can marry with my wife in Skyrim Special Edition.

solar nebula
#

I prefer text based roleplaying!

#

@vast heron yes you can

vast heron
#

But she's not real.

solar nebula
#

That's the special part in "special edition"

#

The special wife

vast heron
#

She's most beautiful pixels i have married. And she does not complain to me either.

solar nebula
#

I had a wife, but they took her in the divorce

vast heron
#

Maybe if they make Android Robots with Smart AI i can marry with a robot.

#

I can have multiple wives that can be programmed by me cool.

#

I still need a one real woman for making a child, and that woman going to accept my robot waifus..

solar nebula
vast heron
#

I'm just joking not serious.

solar nebula
#

I'm also joking. I'm the wife and I'm not divorced

vast heron
#

I watched it. That's really cool.

solar nebula
#

I'm super into VR acting

#

It being VR really makes a difference

vast heron
#

GTA VR will be awesome if done right.

#

You can play as any job you want.

#

If i marry a girl i want her to dress like someone i like i hope she accept it πŸ˜„ Atleast sometimes.

solar nebula
#

I'm pretty sure "my wife is okay with what I like" is like, one of the good requirements for a successful marriage

vast heron
#

Thanks, we will develop games together i can add her to my video game as character too, she will like it.

#

Even if i get a girl friend i will get one free developer for my team that will lower the cost of production.

solar nebula
#

I have a suggestion

#

If you are polyamorous, you can have multiple girlfriends for increased productivity gains

#

Imagine if you had your girlfriends husbands lovers to help working on it too

vast heron
#

that's good idea.

broken sigil
#

Girlfriend? What's that?

vast heron
#

Female human that you like to talk and do activities together.

tulip orbit
#

aka sandwich maker

broken sigil
#

lol

vast heron
#

Atleast you get a good sandwich.

solar nebula
#

A girlfriend doesn't have to be female

vast heron
#

IT'S MA'AM.

solar nebula
#

A girlfriend is more state of mind than what's in your pants

vast heron
#

I prefer female gender and i have light skin color so am i racist?

broken sigil
#

I'm 20 and never had a girlfriend lol
Friendzoned every time, literately don't even care anymore

vast heron
#

I'm friendzoned to my friend 2 times, i had one real girlfriend than she left me.

#

I was doing everything right, I care her like a queen, I made her my queen that she left me, I think she wants a bad boy. I'm kind and gentle πŸ˜„

broken sigil
#

The last girl I was interested in we ended up as very good friends
If I eventually run into someone who likes me then great and if I don't who cares, thinking about constantly and trying to desperately find someone will drive you crazy, it's better if it happens unexpectedly

vast heron
#

True, I hope you will find what you are looking for.

solar nebula
#

What is this nice guys anonymous happening here lol

#

Did you know that girls... are human? Just like you!

#

And that you can build a relationship in many ways just like you can with guys. And that people regardless of gender all like roughly same things (like attention and to be heard) xD

have you tried calling the company? πŸ€”

tidal ivy

was the company even shipping orders / open for business, is a good first question

and then it really depends where you're shipping from or to

uk to germany πŸ˜„

that would normally take a week or less

Some people hate Jews, technology and immigration and internationalism

That's the root of those conspiracies generally

#

Also I prefer AMD now for GPUs and CPUs since they're better for cross platform work in my experience

fluid bloom
#

sadly no g-sync

dense storm
#

yup need more ram, got no free slots :

#

:/

zinc matrix
#

no g-sync but it's a feature i'm not fussed about - granted, i'm not someone who is rolling in stacks of cash at the moment

alpine fern
#

nvidia gpu + amd cpu is the ideal combination currently

sage ermine
#

@pearl elk reminds me of automan

#

hah, needed a laugh

zinc matrix
#

it would be ideal but sometimes on linux i just have a shit time with nvidia drivers (especially proprietary ones after updates, needed for non-UE4 workloads like CUDA)

#

on windows this is not likely an issue

#

i prefer to not be limited to just Windows generally

north torrent
gilded vigil

1000000 at leastkappa

the ideal would be a billion kappa

north torrent
#

6 million for that door alone.

gilded vigil
#

nah, 20 million for the door

carmine frigate
#

50 for the car and 50.000 for the breaking window

gilded vigil

lol

#

more like 100000000000000000000000000000000000 for window

that have more triangles than any gameengine can provide kappa

I went to a web page the other day and I really got the impression that the standard needs an update. What a mess.

gilded vigil
#

how much vram do you guys recommend for using ue4 for more expensive(to run) stuff?

pearl elk
#

48GB

gilded vigil
#

bruh

#

for games tho

pearl elk
#

This will be fine for gaming

#

Might as well get 2 for SLI

gilded vigil
#

no, game development is what i mean

#

using 4gb vram is a big struggle

#

can't even import 3d plants from megascans 😦

north torrent
#

All the VRAM!

tulip orbit
#

throw it in the fire!

gilded vigil
#

so basically use ssd storage as vram lol kappa

north torrent
#

Gotta have at least 8gb for serious stuff.

#

6gb for casual gaming.

gilded vigil
#

Gotta have at least 8gb for serious stuff.
@north torrent yes, i was planning on getting a 8gb gpu

north torrent
#

4gb is for plebs.

gilded vigil
#

4gb is for plebs.
@north torrent its a budget graphics card dont judge me

north torrent
#

Just get an RTX 2070.

#

I just did.

tulip orbit
#

I think I only have 4gb too 😦

#

attempting to check now

north torrent
#

Are you a pleb, Mr. Interitus?

tulip orbit
#

yes

gilded vigil
#

lol

north torrent
gilded vigil
#

i was thinking on a rtx 2070 super or a 2080 super but idk

tulip orbit
#

well that was a mistake. Loaded geforce experience to check my vidcard. so now its updating...

gilded vigil
#

gonna wait for rtx 30- series tho

north torrent
#

5, 7, 9, 10, 20, 16, 30...

gilded vigil
#

you forgot 6

north torrent
#

Someone needs to teach Nvidia how to count.

tulip orbit
#

I have a 1070, so whatever ram that has

gilded vigil
#

also, i think there's an gtx 8 series for laptops

north torrent
#

21 comes after 20.

30 does not come after 20.

#

What is wrong with people?

gilded vigil
#

everything.

north torrent
#

It's all your fault.

gilded vigil
#

no

north torrent
#

How can we trust people with unlimited triangle power when they don't even notice that 30 does not come after 20?

gilded vigil
#

i did so it's not my fault

#

same as rtx 2060 doesn't come after 1080

north torrent
#

RTX and GTX are different though, so I will let it slide.

#

But non ray tracing gpus should have continued at GTX 1160 not 1660.

gilded vigil
#

same as 960 doesn't come after 780

north torrent
#

And RTX should have gone 20, 21, 22, 23.

#

Skipping a number is not unforgivable though.

#

Skipping 9 numbers, that is.

gilded vigil
#

970 should be called 961

#

2070 should be called 2061

#

and 2080 should be 2062

#

1660 should be 1651

north torrent
#

No.

#

Go slap yourself with a fish.

gilded vigil

no

slap a fish with yourself
