Ah, guys don't have time to implement c++

pearl elk
#

thats okay, c++ is shit anyways

#

I was thinking, wouldnt it be great if Unreal Editor went back to Visual Basic

humble remnant
#

You shouldn't be thinking

buoyant jungle
#

Probably old hat but I'm finding more op-ed pieces than anything concrete on Google... But did anyone find out how specific WB's nemesis patent is? Parts of it seem extremely specific to Mordor clones, while other parts seem general enough to apply to almost anything.

pearl elk
#

you should be able to find the actual patent application with all the details

buoyant jungle
#

I've given it a once over. I'm not a compsci guy/system designer (at least not good enough of one for this). I'm even more confused over it than before I read it, given the extremely broad language in various areas. I assume it's the specific implementation?

pearl elk
#

Is there a reason in particular this concerns you?

buoyant jungle
#

Because I'm not a good enough system designer yet. Building a system in which NPCs & game world politics change in response to both player actions and (at given points in time) npc "off screen actions" is one of the milestones I've set up for essentially grinding that skill....
Plus every milestone is basically one more component for an indie game I've got planned several years out after many, many, many smaller projects.

pearl elk
#

Doesnt sound related to the patent to me

buoyant jungle
#

Seen a lot of conjecture that WB might go after something like that, so got concerned. (Again, broad language)

pearl elk
#

is your NPC data stored on the internet?

buoyant jungle
#

Nope.

pearl elk
#

thats part of the patent language, Wide Area Network is pretty clearly labelled

buoyant jungle
#

So basically, just chug along and don't worry until it's made then?

pearl elk
#

even if it were similar I probably wouldnt worry too much, they actually have to prove in court you infringed on the patent and unless you happened to make something identical it'll be hard for them to enforce it

#

it seems like they have a special form of balancing and dialog etc which is involved in the system

buoyant jungle
#

Good to know. If anything I'm more inspired by Crusader Kings, and the promises that were never delivered by the Fable series.

Dialogue does play a part, a bit more akin to Skyrim or Fallout NPCs referencing events... Save for the Arch-Enemy that is generated based on your character creation choices (think a more in depth Mount and Blade history selection system), that procedural dialogue system is much more in depth.

pearl elk
#

Sounds like youre not trying to copy Mordor to me, I can understand the concern and if you are worried about it closer to release you can always consult a lawyer to discuss it further. My worry was at first since you were looking into the Patent you were doing something very similar even Mordor inspired

#

The way I see it is unless it looks like youre copying in the end product even if the underlying system were the same they wouldnt know to take it to court

cursive crypt

primal spoke
#

normal prism
#

Occlusion and partial occlusion. Steam Audio can quickly model raycast occlusion of direct sound by solid objects. Steam Audio also models partial occlusion for non-point sources.

#

Perhaps something like this?

fathom wadi
#

exactly that

regal pecan
#

Seems like a waste of resources in a game where you're running between convex (?) rooms.

primal spoke
#

oof I thought this was a joke.

#

I guess I should have looked into it more lol

fluid bloom
#

I think they use raytracing to modify how sounds echo and reverb in the different environments

#

and PS 5 apparently has a dedicated chip for that

#

but Returnal runs on UE 4 so I was wondering which audio middleware they use πŸ˜„

primal spoke
#

Audio DSP driven by raytracing.

#

Holy Moly that must have been super complicated to create.

#

Audio DSP programming is no joke.

I wonder if they use it for all the sounds or just the weapons, because I can't tell. Audio DSP programming is a joke when you're wearing cheap headphones. :X

#

#

life is hard, I know

light spruce
#

I don't want fake shit that requires headphones

#

since I don't wear them. I have a bunch of speakers on purpose

foggy path
#

it's easier to produce 3D sound in headphones I'm pretty sure

#

at least in such a way that it reproduces the same across different types of setups

#

with surround speakers yeah maybe you get directionality from the speaker setup, but how it sounds is going to be affected by way more factors than how headphones sound

#

like my speakers that I have on my desk have a setting on them to reduce bass output if you place them next to a wall or into a corner and they do really produce way too strong bass if it's in a corner without that setting on :P

fluid bloom
#

lol

#

wait, button?

#

yea I don't understand 7.1 headphones

#

the headphones have no way of knowing where the sound in game comes from

#

nor do the headphones know the orientation of the listener in game

#

they just have audio data

foggy path
#

afaik they usually are just DSP's

#

it pretends to be a 7.1 speaker setup and then does software stuff to bring it into stereo headphones

#

some of them do actually have multiple speaker elements inside the headphones but I haven't really heard about those being very good since it diminishes audio quality due to smaller drivers and such

ivory lodge
#

I'm really buzzing along with work today. I keep feeling like I should do more but I got a lot done.

#

I need to figure out how I'm going to handle button combos...

light spruce
#

You're right; it's going to sound pretty much like shit across all headphones. Because you have a lot of the same limitations. It's not like everyone is going to be using a flat reference set of headphones that are going to be positioned the same on their head. Even if they did, it's really difficult to use two drivers to trick your brain into the perception of spacial sound because your brain is very good at determining the timing and changes in sound based on your specific ear configuration.

#

And that's why you're far better off with using a lot speakers because then you aren't trying to fake positioning by using timing and sound altering

fluid bloom
#

oh dog Lordi on eurovision again

light spruce
#

And there are a couple of different automated systems that do a pretty good job of correcting for distance and placement of speakers, as well as making adjustments for room acoustics to produce a more flat response. So you don't have to build a perfect room (though a little bit of room treatment does help a lot)

fluid bloom
#

my denon amp has one

#

in the end it didn't do much

light spruce
#

That depends on what you were expecting it to do

foggy path
#

I don't really know, why does everyone play games like CSGO with headphones if positional audio was better on surround speaker systems

fluid bloom
#

you only have two ear drums anyway

light spruce
#

You're either taking the piss or don't understand how your brain deals with sound.

fluid bloom
#

of course there is more going on than just that you have only two pieces of "hardware" sensing sound

#

but my point is that it's perfectly doable with just headphones

#

otherwise binaural recordings wouldn't be a thing

#

binaural sound rendering aims to do the same in real time

light spruce
#

It's not "perfectly" doable.

#

At some point, with proper calibration and equipment, maybe.

#

Still hasn't happened.

fluid bloom
#

I blame that on sounds being a backseat passenger for a loooong time in games πŸ˜„

light spruce
#

I'm not even talking about games. Just the ongoing research for it isn't there. And that's been going on for ... fuck knows.

#

It's pretty solid for a reference set of IEMs when dealing with human speech

#

But it shits itself pretty fast outside of that range and with high degrees of movement

light spruce
foggy path
#

Yeah there are probably reasons like that, but nobody is even competitively playing with speakers on sort of semi casual level

#

you'd think that there'd at least be some discussion about using speakers if they gave an advantage, but there isn't

light spruce
#

You'd also need to look at the Venn diagram of "people under 26" and "people who own a half-decent surround setup"

quasi mantle
light spruce
#

That part's less necessary outside of "lives in a shitty apartment" which is going to be a pretty large cross section of that "under 26"

#

We also live in a time where people are fine watching movies with their shitty built-in phone speakers so...

fluid bloom
#

πŸ˜„

light spruce
#

And if you start getting into a couple hundred bucks a speaker...

#

Like most of those people are probably not running some $600 planar magnetic headphones

#

That's one of the things that annoyed me about that game. "Here are your options: Headphone stuffs... or you can have stereo."

they would still get a percentage no matter what happens. Consider that Fortnite covered over a third of the cost of running the iStore (accorind to their running costs). Closed or not, they can limit the external sources per app to trusted sources so most of the arguments given by Apple are a crock of shit.

regal pecan
#

I suppose this is a form of trainspotting for Apple. First you go after the store, and once you can't go after the store, you go after the sideloading, and after that the monopoly.

At some point Apple has to get off the track. Or it turns out they are the train.

Dan Kaminsky.

Kaminsky was also an outspoken privacy rights advocate. During the FBI–Apple encryption dispute, he criticized comments by then-FBI director James Comey, saying "what is the policy of the United States right now? Is it to make things more secure or to make them less secure?" In a 2016 interview, Kaminsky said, "the Internet was never designed to be secure. The Internet was designed to move pictures of cats ... We didn’t think you’d be moving trillions of dollars onto this. What are we going to do? And here’s the answer: Some of us got to go out and fix it."

In a pure Windows environment, RDP probably is the better solution

But since I'm dealing with Windows and Linux, nx has worked really well for me

Use like an arduino board or something as a display... and have it just reduce the display to like... a 4:3 array of LEDs

So if they change.. you know something is happening and you can pull up a remote window

Actually, at that point, you could always pull the tach wire on a CPU fan, resistor (I don't actually know the voltage stuff on the tach wire so... that's a research thing) and pull an LED off that if you just needed that kind of a visual.

So it's probably coming soon, but we don't know when.

Plus 4.27 is on the way, so I'm not sure what the strategy is there. Surely we'll get 4.27 Preview 1 at some point.

#

Maybe 4.27 and 5 EA come at the same time? That's my thinking so far, but I'm only fairly confident about that. I could be way off.

There was a blog post about the Oodle integration a while back, and I thought it was strange the way they said "You can try it soon in Unreal Engine 4.27 and Unreal Engine 5." Never seen two versions mentioned together like that, so that was my first tip they might come around the same time.

I can see them selling 4.27 as the stable, battle-tested option... but if you want to see where they're going next, try UE5 Early Access.

I guess they might come at the same time, the code of both is similiar enough

#

Hard to say. I'm just speculating. They've never done that before so there's no precedent.

I'm assuming we'll at least hear news soon, perhaps before the actual release drops.

Mostly because of the website update, the UE5 tech demo on the home page, and the UE5 logos you can download.

Take some pictures leave 'em by your dirty dishes. Back your Rover down the driveway, drive it down the highway, and fly the motherfucker off a bridge."

#

Those clips were filmed in January 2020, before the UE5 reveal/tech demo.

#

Sounds like new info is coming on Wednesday.

Remember to keep free space on your drives πŸ’‘

#

Today's interviews were just a tease, a refresher to get us talking again.

#

Nothing new.

solid aurora
#

nah

#

we started talkin before πŸ˜„

bronze axle
#

Well sure, but I mean they've started marketing UE5 again.

#

So it's probably the start of a campaign.

#

Probably working towards early access.

solid aurora
#

yeah I really don't see them not releasing it this week or next

cursive crypt
#

Ain't June the time for the 4.27 anyway? πŸ€”

bronze axle
#

Don't know.

Epic v Apple - from the judge to Tim Cook:

β€œI understand this notion that somehow Apple’s bringing the customers to the users. But after that first time, after that first interaction, the [developers] are keeping the customer with the games. Apple’s just profiting off that, it seems to me,” Rogers said.

Nailed it.

Folks, does anyone have a recommendation for a lawyer/legal person that is very familiar with game development/publishing?

No way we can compete

hahahaha yes

First time I've heard of it. This video is probably longer than this asset flip's development process.

light spruce
#

Someone should endeavor to make a good game that is made only from asset flippspsppsps

regal pecan
#

That would be more accurate to the term "flip". Most asset flips would be better described as asset flops.

fathom wadi
#

it looked like it at first.

regal pecan
#

I believe pubg wasn't an asset flip. Though the creator originally made a similar game mode as a mod for DayZ, and that game was an asset flip in spirit if not in practice.

fathom wadi
#

ubisoft flip their own assets all the time

light spruce
#

It definitely looked that way because it was some inconsistent shit

Enjoy those Arma II era buildings, boys!

#

i feel bullied

bronze axle
#

I didn't mention anyone.

#

But I probably will on Wednesday if they drop significant news, or Early Access comes out.

#

If that's not worth an everyone ping, I don't know what is.

#

Well then

#

I am ready

humble remnant

an unoptimised mess is my best guess

Can't wait to port my entire framework straight into UE5 and get 3 fps

The whole thing is a massive scam

#

They don't know what they're talking about

Hey don't ping us if UE5 comes out, we are only interested in Fortnite 2

"DreamWorld - The Last Game You'll Ever Play"

#

Thats the title of their Kickstater

#

if youre 60 years old and hever never used a computeristic device before.

πŸ˜„

median wraith
#

why the people paid 60k for pure scam ?

fathom wadi
#

Im actually impressed they called it an alpha. Because it looks just like one. In fact, it's like a prototype so yeah its a scam πŸ˜„

median wraith
#

the kickstarter trailer is basically a compilation of marketplace packs

quasi mantle
#

Dreamworld?

ppft. More like Manny The MMO

fathom wadi
#

I've done prototypes that run better and thats without caring about anything except to see if something works

quasi mantle
#

that scam project is insulting my intelligence.

median wraith
#

and the video is he crying because lost the job and the fiance

#

I have no comments

regal pecan
#

TLDW version?

median wraith
#

I wish the people had more clear ideas about what they want and don't want, what makes sense and what not

why you need the biggest MMO game if you cannot even manage a 32 players minecraft server as turn into a chaos

An MMO with no server authentication sounds hilarious.

Kiratv I think has some videos talking about her side of the story, as does she herself on her channel

Far better than this scam.

Fighting words: It's better than Elite: Dangerous.

fathom wadi

elite dangerous is the most boring game I've ever played.

May as well be a delivery driver for Just Eat and earn some real cash. It's pretty much the same job.

More boring than tree simulator?
