Just add epilepsy warnings.
Base game, all expansions and a month playtime
I'm observing your falling with interest.
But there's 2 more days of the promo

I mean
I have been no-lifing it
Tbh I'm kinda playing everything for the time being
MSQ, optional dungs, crafting
Looking at what you need to do in WoW has been...
Repulsing to say that least

Anyone here has a link to latest Rider EA build? I am unable to receive email for download link
I want the privilege of debugging my project with Rider 
Just out of curiosity, does anyone know if Spore used voxel for their character creator?
Can't say for sure, and I don't even know if a copy is still obtainable.
Also RenderDoc doesn't work well with DX9, which what that game likely use.
It's the internet I'm sure it could be dug out haha. But I was asking out of curiosity, I know how they did their planets and such, couldn't remember about how the actual creatures were created
Thanks, always fun to read more about this
spore is such a depressing game in some ways
one of many that bit off more than it can chew
honestly the most depressing thing is that after all its issues it's still available for purchase π
simlife was far superior to spore
I liked Spore, I played the crap out of it
The furthest I've got is when you start colonizing the solar system, no clue if there is anything else beyond that
conspiracy: matt aspland and ryan laley are the same person
Kidding of course, but their video style is pretty similar, both are from the UK
And then there was the completely bizarre Darkspore based on Spore's tech.
Sporecore and four score before the nor
@regal pecan Darkspore was amazing, I loved it
it was so unique in terms of everything, really felt like online wasn't needed though
Maybe #industry-chat is the better fit for this.
But isn't Epic a private company, and not a publicly trading one?
Also the studio you're referring to might be Sumo Digital.
yup
wat
phantasy star online 2 has a remake or something now
the question is, does it have the best feature of the original, which is that it could be used to run arbitrary code on the system it ran on?
Ultima Online remake would be nice
I wouldn't care if it was isometric top down or not
Frostbite games supposedly have an unfixed RCE
The group that hacked EA claims to have an RCE for it, as part of their ransom for the data
None of these things are surprising.
Imagine turning it loose on the new BF launch and converting all players into bitcoin mines

I recall there was this Japanese arcade game, of which the gameplay is you flipping the table in rage.
yeah I remember seeing a video of it
Japanese Table Flipping Game! Arcade game: Japanese stress relieve relief; involving a Japanese expression, an awesome arcade game and an abundance of tables.

I didn't watch the video but at least based on the clips of it in the start it reminds me of those physics simulations where you get points for damage
eg. you have to flip your guy down the stairs, or crash cars into stuff
Stair Dismount
Yeah, the point of the game is cause as much collateral damage as possible from table flipping rage.

taiko no tatsujin is one that I'd like to try sometime, it seems fun
it's a rhythm game with the big taiko drum

and makes multiple assumptions about my DIY skills, availability of taiko drums, the noise from banging it being acceptable in an apartment building...

So far I'm picking up good speed in learning C++
I won't be able to do UE4 CPP overnight it will take time
But it is worth every second I spend doing it and it is very rewarding
Should have done that but wasted so much time on studying audio engineering.
the last few months
Blueprints is a visual representation of C++ in my opinion, but it has its own particular problems that differ a lot from C++. I just hope that my blueprints skills improves more after I do C++.
They should, the basics are very similar. π
Learning ue cpp nowadays sounds like a children song. On the other hand, I have to debug a 30y old cross compiled client connected under a vm to some badly written hardware simulator. I just wanna extrude verts instead T.T
what do you mean ?
by children song
Are you saying like it is simple and not a big deal. Others has told me learning cpp is harder then other coding languages.
... everyone has his own relative obstacles to overcome, you are fine, don't worry.
Sometimes i just feel like I'm making a name for myself around here and I don't really mean it.
I just wanna be able to properly engage with the conversations and go with the flow with everyone else here.
Also theres a problem that most of c++ tutorials get outdated, and then some things don't work when you follow the tutorial, need to include additional stuff for example.
This doesn't have to be unreal engine related but what was your first programming language you learn't ?
Java , python , C# or C , C++ or lua
I don't know they don't have to be what I listed
then C very poorly lol
Visual Basic ?
They still had pascal when I was in school π
I had VB6 in school
but the teacher was like "you know more about programming than I do so you don't have to attend"
lol
I currently still go to school
and they just have scratch
No programming
It is this https://scratch.mit.edu/
Did they teach you that during your time in high school ?
Yeah that one too. Then science highschool 4 years of cpp, with the first 1 just writing code on a blackboard π low budget schools
I did a degree in business information technology, it was part of that
sort of high school level'ish I guess, we don't really have a direct equivalent of it here
My high school needs to start teaching actual programming
and I might be advocating for that to my school principal. I remember asking her once and she said she'll look into it.
I could say anything and she'd still give me that same answer
Even the head teacher of everything IT agrees with me
At least here it would be quite difficult for schools to just decide to teach something they aren't doing atm because the curriculums and such come from higher up and they can't stray from them too much
I guess they could probably offer electives outside of the constraints of the degree, but they might not be able to count it as studies towards the degree
they actually brought programming into the curriculum for elementary schools here
that was way past my time in elementary school so I don't really know of the details of it though :D
which lang ?
I think they are using Python
Nice
But I don't know if the language is specified in the curriculum so it might vary by school I guess
Is C++ seen difficult to you to learn as first time lang ?
for me I'm like bring it on
I'm all up for the challenge
But yeah some of those stuff should be taught in every high school and one of my personal friend is a school captain so he might be able to do more about then I can. He's also into tech stuff.
Next time I bring that up I'm gonna go for the deputy principal not gonna waste time with the principal.
C is like for older machines
you don't do C++ ?
I just wanna be able to make my own games and actually be more out there in the community contributing to projects.
better then sitting around expecting others too
Do the game industry do paid internship ?
I am willing to travel
let's continue in #industry-chat
In one way you have an advantage over us older people @subtle hatch . Younger brains are more adept at learning new things π I'm 100% certain that in a few months time you'll have a very good understanding of the way things flow in Unreal, and in the community.
Yea they young people are able to be fast learners
But then not much older people around here would be keen in talking to a kid
Depending on where you live there might be irl Unreal community groups that help each other too which might be an option for you, help you expand your circle of knowledge etc
I wanted to talk to self taught programmer on DMs who is a moderator here about how they learn things but got ignored.
You call yourself a kid, may I ask how old you are?
Ah yeah DMs are generally not the best way, as they have been abused by others who see them as a direct line to get help. It's not personal, it's a result of having people do that far far too much.
17
But yeah I just overall lack credibility in this community to be honest and I want to lift it up.
Teaching yourself is tough, depending how you learn. By that I mean some people learn by doing, repeating tasks others can learn by reading/watching tutorials etc. Setting yourself some basic, easy to achieve goals is key imo. If the tutorials are out of date that just means you have a learning opportunity to find out what has changed in the engine and implement a fix. I tend to watch a load of different tutorials from different channels and blend together the different approaches to problems in a style that suits me.
Don't worry about credibility, it's admirable that you are concerned about that however!
I did blueprint here and there. Once I code C++ in general then I move towards UE C++
being able to laugh at yourself is probably the best advice to alleviate concern about that though. Most of us [especially in lounge] like to laugh at ourselves and each other. We'll take the piss out of each other but it's never [well.. mostly never] meant in an offensive way.
Long time ago the way I spoken to people around here was just wrong. I acted like people owed me stuff and was just wrong.
I've yet to dive into cpp, I know I should because there are several things that can only be done in cpp. I'll get there eventually but until then blueprints suit me fine. I know of several people making games purely in BP.
Also the advantage of my age is with my job. I got no expenses so I can use it entirely on my project.
But I won't be sheltered forever
So gonna have to take advantage of this time period
I do know another person who runs a entire game project but in unity and from another game dev community
He like spends his entire pay check on a project he runs for like the last three years.
People here are very forgiving, we know people from all walks of life come here to learn, all ages etc. Everyone is different and believe me when I say you may think you had a bad start but really that's not the case... some people... π well... you'll encounter them soon enough I guess... muppets will be muppets
where's JohnOfTurbulence
But he's getting like full adult week wages. Doesn't even do anything directly for his project.
I probably have enough savings that I could sit on my ass and work on my game for a year or two
But it's like yeah do I really wanna spend my savings on a long shot which might not even make me much money
lol
There is only one thing that really annoys people in this server [and other places probably] is that if the answer can be found by googling or experimenting with nodes/code etc yourself. If you've done that and you feel like your bashing your head on the wall, people will be happy to help if they can.
yeah google first ask later is considered to be the etiquette in all help communities I think
I generally don't ask for solutions, mainly to be pointed in the right direction. Tend to get more help that way and it doesn't take up much others time
I remember my first couple of weeks here, just reading channels.. didn't understand a word of it... interfaces .. line traces ... widgets.. an alien language. π I reckon I know enough about Unreal now to at least bluff a conversation π π
GameObjects
What you said there is very important people can be better, maybe by helping each others to be a better person and showing them how we can all improve. All by just talking to each others.
well interfaces is when you get a few peoples faces and mash them together isn't it?
and line traces are something the DEA look into
That and if you are expecting others to just do everything for you for nothing. But yeah people around here would only be keen on helping if the person wants to help them self.
Yup, that's it in a nutshell π
learning how to phrase questions is all part of the learning curve too π
you forgot the photos must be at weird angles and be of completely random things.

If it is a idea not seen anywhere else then yes
Problem is indie games always gets listed quiet in the playstation and xbox stores.
I don't think I'd even build for consoles because it's not the type of game that would play well on those I think :D
I guess in theory if it's easy to port but frankly I have no clue
it's probably an idea that doesn't have a lot of exact copies of it, but I think it's also a very niche game concept
You might not make much money because you need exposure.
basically it's a first person perspective video rental store simulator/tycoon/management game
and I'm sure you aren't prepared to spend a million dollar in a commercial either
I'm joking
yeah I gathered lol
Although TV ads isn't really expensive as they used to be
they are moving more towards youtube and social media
I guess that depends on what channel and what time you're airing them
not much people watches TV
I'd say Facebook would be easy and useful and actually cheap
but only if you are trying to get your message across to a local audience
at least for my project, attempting to get suitable gaming influencers to play it would probably work
I'd say the best way to start is to make it a moblie app
it's the kinda game that you see it and there's funny stuff that can happen so it could at least in theory work if someone popular enough played it lol
indie moblie apps just works better for small time game devs
then people will pester you to make it into a PC game
probably, I personally just don't play mobile games at all so I have zero interest in making one as well :D
Then you give them what they want
The PC port would get more download/purchase then it would have without the moblie release.
idk that's up to you I guess
meanwhile I'm sitting in my underwear in my apartment which is 31 C indoors :p
I just did that. It was pouring outside and I was drenching wet, came inside and had some spicy noodles.

10/10 would get wet again
Pouring, sounds cool.

It's not that bad, but probably proof that nodes are worse than text.
That's barely commented. Can't think of a good way to comment nodes in Blender though. You can name them but eh.
just hide all those nodes under 1 node and it looks super easy π
Idea for a game beyond my coding ability: Nightmare Maker
It'd be like Mario Maker, but 3D and you could create different nightmare scenarios for people to play
You have to survive long enough without getting killed and reach the end with an alarm clock to wake yourself up
Well because ideally this would be Freddy Krueger's game
But since WB games probably wouldn't be interested, you'd have to use a knock off of him
Different nightmare stages could be Hell, a boiler room, an abandoned factory, a warehouse, a meat locker, etc
i dont ever dream of those
Never thought Freddy could be cute
Then you're one of the lucky few
Yes, but these are supposed to be nightmares
Hence the scary settings
But yeah objective would be to wake yourself up before Freddy kills you
Or rather whoever is standing in for Freddy cuz copyright
eddy
Mario Maker, but 3D is as non descriptive as can be π
I mean like a 3D horror setting
You'd most likely walk down a long corridor with nightmarish traps coming at you
Eh but
It'd probably be a AAA title
cool, ill get right on it, ill let you know when its done π
Nice sarcasm
I'm not pressuring anyone
Just throwing out an idea
np man no offence π
ideas are fast but implementations are hard
and proned to failure
I don't get nightmares, I've dreamt some weird stuff that others would probably find nightmare-ish... but what can I say I've found myself laughing in dreams at the "scary" stuff π
ive had a bunch
the haybarn one i had like 5 times exactly the same when i was a kid
it also had a hotwater breathing dragon
I've had a few dreams about Freddy, but he's never killed me in any of them
i allmost died in that barn once, nearly dropped on some spikey things and allmost had a collaped lung when i dropped like 3m down
didnt tell any1 cuz my dad and grandpa would never let me play there again
just watched the ghostbusters afterlife new trailer and the breakdown to trailer too

best marvel movie in a long time

Lol. He was probably baiting people that know nothing about unreal but do know about ue5 from some game article s
Also why do I get "x game looks incredible in ue5" when it's just some screen shots of a recreated scene
Game journalism
You can't spell journalism without jism
Those kind of stuff really makes newcomers jump into UE with wrong kind of expectations
The "runs like shit" is the main problem.
I'm an advocate for low spec gamer, and I'm still sceptical if Lumen didn't perform good on lower end hardware.
24 FPS at a letterboxed 21:9 for a more "cinematic" feel
It's VMware but fair enough.
Really hate these new threads
Tbh
You're getting something that nigh emulates realtime raytracing
I'd be surprised if it didn't run like shit
On the bright side, you can switch lumen off and on with a console command
Also UE5 is made for the latest console gen
Expect it to target that hardware
(ergo RX 5700XT equivalent)
I'm a conservative so yeah
Low speccers deserve justice, and I'm all out for that justice.
Thus my decision of sticking with UE4.
UE5 runs on a Radeon HD 6790, just without the new features
UE4 is much easier to adjust for low spec hardware than UE5 (at least to my findings)
Also UE5 is literally bleeding edge tech
Yes. Let's apply the concept of "justice" to something as frivolous as fucking video games.
Because low speccers keep getting shamed, even though the market situation and income rate is less optimal for affording newer and more powerful hardware.
And then there's me that literally has a "lowspec" switch

Instructions unclear
10 fps on 3090 at 720p
Isn't the game 14 years old now
Jeez
"I threw the rest of the cake too; welcome to the real world, jackass."
Well, it would be cool to see Crysis turned into Metal Gear clone in C64
But still
The whole point of Crysis was to be a game that releases for years ahead
Same shit as UE5 being released now
And it was surprising to see Crysis 3 playable on PS3 with acceptable framerate
Shit ain't exactly mainstream yet but it's gonna be soon
But think about the injustice and rampant inequality of Crysis even being released
Be glad the engine still supports 10 year old hardware
You don't need the latest features either
If a game can't run well on low spec then you've just missed out on a huge playerbase
You can make your game support those features for years ahead
But also keep a version that doesn't require them
It should have been kept in a vault, shuttered forever until everyone could play it on their graphing calculators. It would have been the right thing to do.
graphing calculator? More like exam standard PC
Yes. I'm actively upset at how dumb that argument was.
If I can't emulate it in Doom using different color pinkys then it's shit obviously
- on my microwave
A game like factorio takes a lot to make it run poorly. An easy way to do so is by a chain reaction of nuclear powerplant explosions
Eventually, you'll run out of resources
Hopefully in the future the average hardware catches up to game development
If the game looks the same on mid or high end hardware, what's the point in high end hardware
Or games stop finding a new way to simulate individual photons))))))
I suddenly wonder what the overhead was like on that terrifying automated drone factory setup I saw.
Also high end hardware is kind of like an objective to reach for when the game is properly released
As in
If it runs on high end hardware now, it's safe to assume in a couple years time it'll be more mainstream
Especially when devs target performance offered by PS5/XBSX

I hate having to deal with Window file paths because \\]\\\]isn't convenient at all, dickheads
Isn't double \ just used with UNC paths
A single one is still a directory identifier
Windows has supported forward slashes for a long time
maybe even on UNC paths although I haven't tried
Not when you need to match path structures which are only returned by powershell using \
While you can use a forward slash in powershell for directories... it doesn't really work like that.
but none of this helps me get an electric turbo charger
also, you can flip slashes inline, its like black magic
Pretty sure an electric "turbocharger" would just be "more current"
nah it converts turbo waste from a combustion engine to current
reuse the current to spool the electric bit of the turbo charger up, instant on boost no lag
not only that in a car with a modern 48v system you can actually replace the alternator entirely, peak petrol ftw
wont be long before Teslas are getting gapped hard by hybrids
I don't think that's actually going to ... oh. You're trying to fight the second law of thermodynamics
nah it works, turbo is on the engine waste side, it aint a supercharger
Mechanical issues aside for a second...
hey Im no genius, these guys are though π
turbos are very efficient but they wastegate alot of potential energy
Okay, from what I can tell.. this is a bit of a different thing than what I thought you were talking about
But it is also a mechanical nightmare
thats why we get experts to do the heavy lifting, all I do is put the pssht pssht spoolyboi in my brrm brrm
It's really more that instead of venting any excess pressure, it's using that for electric power... rather than just using exhaust gasses to both spin the turbine and charge a system... which is what wouldn't really work.
well turbo cars arnt always on boost, so it just uses the down time and waste effectively
turbo cars should always be on boost, hence anti-lag systems!
but the benefit here is electric cars which put all their gearing into fast take off tend to suffer super bad in the top end, really fast 0-100 but people drive faster than 100
you dont boost past a certain pressure duder
engine go boom
Yeah... I mean.. if you're pulling a vacuum, that's not going to do shit to help that whole thing
but turbos are great at turning exhaust into usable energy, they are more fuel efficient than NA engines for that reason
so they just use the left over potential and put it through the electrical system
The point is that if you don't have positive pressure, you aren't spinning the turbine up
Hence the "should always be on boost"
yeah but you cant just keep throwing pressure at it, the turbo always wants to go more but the engine cant handle it
That wasn't in dispute at all
yeah picking holes in my statements after the fact aint gonna change the fact Garrett made awesome turbo
If you're sitting at ten pounds of boost, that's still still 10 PSI in the system. Positive pressure.
yeah and as soon as you lift the accelerator wheres that boost go, so sure you can hold down the pedal if you got a death wish
What do you mean you don't want it to be on boost
you know, when you brake
Who doesn't want their exhaust spitting flames and car sounding like a gun when off accelerator, while decreasing engine lifetime
:D
lol
I... know how a turbo works
have you heard of a diesel runaway when the engine gets so hot the glow plugs keep igniting, sounds like a fun ride... not π
You normally would either vent excess pressure to atmo or put it into a recirculating system... and, instead of doing that, the fancy electric thing runs it through that
cant believe the Mach-E regenerative braking was causing the battery to overheat
I can!
thats one thing you cant really do in an ICE yet, but these sorts of systems might make it possible to reuse pressure build up
then you get a car with an amazing range but also pretty eco friendly
Obviously, the solution is to go all electric without the necessary infrastructure while completely ignoring range issues in larger countries.
I live in a large country so that aint an option for me π
carrying around a solar charging kit or charging up at a diesel generator setup in the middle of whoop whoop kinda defeats the purpose
there ya go, EV charger on the same palette as the diesel generator
Also slow as fuck
yeah speed is really the issue, if solar panels were more efficient it could make a huge difference
You would need a lot of them
to electric planes as well, they could greatly improve range
best thing would be airports wouldnt be so noisy
but aye Aussies are idiots, we have the longest flattest piece of land and do we build a high speed train like Japan, China or many other countries... nope
I wouldn't have any place to charge an electric car if I had to go on a long trip. And, if I did, it's still too slow.
You also have to largely drive around the entire coast
yeah, Id use electric for a daily but not for my weekender
I just love this modern take on combustion engines, using high tech computers to push them to their limits
people can get all up in arms over EVs but the truth is theres just as much electronics in a modern ICE vehicle
if not more tbh because its easier to monitor EVs parts being electrical from the get go
And diesels have had quite a bit more high tech shit applied to them for quite a while
yup, the engineering has definitely improved because of advances in manufacturing
I see a car with a carburettor and I freak out, not touching that thing it'll break lol
even just simple things like rims, back in the 90s those things were like a house deposit for what is now a cheap set
I know I eat plenty but thats about it lol
What app is best for splitting up a large monitor
Also, some envelope math would tack on over an hour to my old trip that I used to make in less than 12 hours.
Using a long range Tesla Model 3 and being able to charge at 150kW
So, everything would be worse from there
does that factor in elevation though?
that seems to have a pretty big impact on EVs, since they dont have gearing uphill can really chew the battery. Ive actually heard there might be some EV gearboxes coming for towing, uphill and downhill so you get the most out of the power
you can lose energy to heat so by making the motors work less hard and then gearing so the weight of the vehicle improves regeneration downhill
it doesn't matter
electric motors don't have optimal RPM ranges like internal combustion engines have
you get 100% torque all the time
in Finland nearly all residential parking areas have power outlets already installed for car heaters
they really need to start converting those to support charging plugin hybrids and electric cars
they need to upgrade the wires too though
and possibly the electricity company also has to upgrade their lines to the lot
only if it's an older building, if it has enough juice to allow cabin heaters it has enough power for an electric car
its not a huge benefit, Ive heard anywhere between 4-10% range through EV gearing
pretty much everything built after the 90s apparently have the capacity
I doubt that
when towing a boat I dont doubt it for a second tbh
well I can run a cabin heater in my car, so I could charge electrics from there too
this building is from 2002 or so
yea but at what kWh?
I don't know the figures off the top of my head but enough for you to be able to easily charge overnight
sure, but what happens when all tenants are charging during the same night? π
I guess it would work the same
I really think hybrids will be the go
I mean... winter and block heaters and all as you said π
imagine you got a really big trip coming up and the whole grid goes down cuz everyone is running ACs and charging their cars
Yep
there is this idea that cars could somehow reinforce the local grid but I dont see car manufacturers being able to work together on that one
but anyway, if we assume that the heating pole thingys can do 10 amps and uses 230 volts, then fully charging a ~80 kWh battery would take around 35 hours (assuming it's empty)
I guess that would be fine for most things
good luck with 10a 230v in the US π
would work fine here
from what Ive seen of EV rally cars they use a 15A system and actually charge one car off a donor car
that gets em charged up super fast between stages
Depending on your use rate over the week... you'd have to go charge the thing somewhere else at some point if you were just charging it on some 240V/10A garbage
bit like a petrol car, need to give it some premium every now and then, clean the cobwebs
lol if that worked why do radiator fans get powered by the engine
I mean you wouldn't be able to keep it charged if you were driving the shit out of it constantly
Hey, most of them are only tangentially powered by the engine now
The person responsible for putting fans right on the crank was an asshole.
yeah they arnt on the main belt anymore but they are still on the battery not spinning from the air going in
They would totally spin from air going in... as long as you turn them off
so why not use them to charge the battery instead of the alternator hehe

okay I lie, since some of them are cached is probably closer to 100
its been doing plenty of that, we had hail and lighting earlier
probably gonna have to open the gutter pipe cuz the tanks full
all EVs in the US charge off the same ports that washers and dryers hook up to, very easy to install to the existing grid
from what Ive read the grid in the US is in terrible condition for the most part
which is why Texas blew apart
we got the 80s and the conservatives were all like... powerlines what silly socialism is this
partly because it's not "the" grid
buhhhdeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Long story short: my partner is out of town and the first night adjusting to sleeping alone is always hard. π
Not too bad right now, but the high today is 92 F. π¦
Got a heat wave coming this weekend, too. Highs up to 102 F.
Bleh.
ah yeah same here
I cannot sleep at night if we have 70 F
Yeah that is hard for me too.
It was like 62 F last night, so not terrible.
Still not ideal. I prefer 50s or 40s at night, if not colder. π
my last apartment was like a real sauna in the summer time π (especially at night)
In recent years I've noticed how burdensome high temperatures over a long period of time can be, it's really extreme on the body. I've read Greece has something crazy going on this and next week in terms of heat.
Lofts turn into a sauna very fast and make restful sleep almost impossible, its a vicious circle really.
Yeah same, I bought a portable air conditioner, it comes with a tube you have to put somewhere to get rid of the hot air... I shoved it out the window π
Now I have Antarctic in my room every night lol

im currently doing the "summer of unreal" course/seminar/masterclass stuff, and I am one of the few people with unreal experience. this friday we'll be divided over teams of 20.
no version control, no-one really knowing naming conventions, and probably more issues.
its going to be fun for sure, but wish me and my ocd luck.
Have fun being in charge of the lucky team with you in XD
we'll get roles assigned, so we'll see.
Godspeed for the event 
so far its been fun though, after each day's teaching is over I stream and explain some stuff that was shown, or show other things one can do with it
Just remember to get each and every one to test that keyboard short cut... π π
B for branch
naa, shift + delete with a node selected. It deletes the node and reconnects the exec pins
middle mouse button for reroute
however it doesn't seem to work for everyone even if it is set in the engine settings.
so far you have been the only one it has worked for.
Jan got it working too
wonder if its a driver/country/keyboard setting
Ever spend too long in one 3D application (maya for example) and then momentarily forget how to move about an unreal engine scene?
yes ^
If anything, the reverse happened to me.

This shit amazes me. You built a video game... so you know how to use variables. Why the hell would you not, you know... use them for input?
The Ascent looking good, let see tomorrow.
Oh no, after months.. what have I done by mistake 
I'm not an expert... but I'm guessing you deleted a hot-reload file that doesn't exist. TL;DR - you tore a hole in the spacetime continuum and now we're all doomed to the collapse into a parallel universe.
Let me tell you a horror story: I went to sleep thinking of multiplayer games to pick up... and I woke up thinking about Fallout 76. Everything was bound to go downhill from there.

because WHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NELLY
if there is someone who wanted to like that game it was me, I experienced it blind, and for the first time was completely and UTTERLY let down
im talking whole milk here
none of this 2% jargon
oh I meant to untick reply, sorry for the ping 'ol chap
Finally getting somewhere with this radar system. The equations are all making sense
You can ping me with every message directed at anyone as long as you never call me "ol' chap"
I knew better than to care about that game right from the outset... because I knew it wasn't what anyone wanted... though.. I guess it's closer to what people wanted than ESO was.
I'm sure there are people that are absolutely all about that Elder Scrolls lore.. because... there are fans of everything. But I'm also sure that the vast majority neither know nor care about any of it to want to play some WoW knockoff about it.
ESO, F76, FF14... what's going on on this server?
You were just looking for excuse, admit it π
What people wanted: 2 - 5 person co-op in a Fallout universe... with the options of New Vegas and the gunplay of Fallout 4
What they got:

My cynicism is torn in two directions... one being that people have no idea what people actually want.. and the other being that they're incapable of doing anything other than low-tier dogshit

so when's the threadpocalypse happening
What is this thread shit I keep hearing about?
For lounge only)))))))
discord adding slack threads
it's probably horrible for most servers but tbh when used tastefully on this one it could be useful
I hate slack threads
I constantly miss them at work
It might be functional for no more than 12 people
silo'ed conversation and easy to miss
I've never had to use slack.. but having seen screenshots... I have no idea how the fuck you'd follow it. Discord already pisses me off trying to follow anything
but for the question format we have on this discord actually I could see it being useful
It's definitely one of those things the average member must not be allowed to use
TBH the auto archive stuff is kind of bullshit, and just a way for Discord to make money out of Server Boosts.
Because it's already the worst possible interface for monitoring only specific channels on servers that you care about.
I was wondering about this, so when they archive you can't read them without boost??
And you can't use ripcord (which handles it fine) because you'll most likely get banned
More of can't be continued further if time runs out.
ahhh
It's like reddit's 6 month auto archival system
Used ripcord for two days... had Discord flip its shit and had to do some sms confirmation shit
yeah slack is terrible for communities
Probably should have just said fuck it.. ban my account
if I wanted threads Id use a forum
I was just talking about Discord there.
oh well you can do that on discord tho
If I was currently actively developing stuff... I'd still care about, at most... three channels here
And it's clunky as shit to watch channels on different servers
yeah I do wish you could control the ones it presents
which you can do on slack ofc
You should look at what Ripcord does... but.. you know.. don't actually use it
I'm never going to help someone in #multiplayer for instance
IRC was alittle better for that tbh, you just joined when channels you wanted and they were all tabbed
oh sorry sourdough, getting a little too not off topic for #lounge :-P
Ripcord will let you just grab individual channels and sort them into folders
theres only so much help youre going to get on demand, most questions I have require more than a few lines back and forward
no one answers my questions
thats why you dont see me using the help channels much, if Im asking how to fix my skin switching systems replication it requires me to spell it all out
I can do that fine on a forum but on text chat, not so great
when you get to an advanced stage it becomes difficult for folks to jump in and help
basic stuff is ez
You mean... by the time you can explain the issue...you're 75% to a solution and 100% of the people still have no idea what you're talking about?
yeah pretty much
I don't ask simple questions
Because if it's simple, I've already bothered to figure out something
yeap
And there's not a channel for what I do anyway
Which is probably good.. because it'd be systems design and it'd be a lot of telling people they're building something stupid
hey Id be one of those people π
You're building something stupid. Stop failing upward.

Now I'm torn between watching the car chase from Gone in 60 Seconds (the original that has car chases) (so basically half the film) and the beginning of Baby Driver.
