yea, discord should auto-detect them by now
just auto-ban anyone that uses the word "nitro"
ban the entire twitch chat please
shut down the entire internet you say?
no i said kill everyone

@regal pecan so thats what you were on about with Gamasutra
no one:
ue4 when u exit:
It's a good thing Mike got shot in the latest Bad Boys movie because otherwise they would've had to make him bulletproof and that wouldn't have been any fun
so no excuses for releasing games with crappy textures ๐

why my FPS so dull
its only 500 AIs with 500 BTs randomly moving them around ๐
should be called Running out of FPS
Im not even sure I'll get my idea done in time, just playing along for fun at this point cuz I dont wanna stress
Ive stressed myself too much in the past trying to hit the tight deadlines and it always makes me feel worse coming out than I was going in
then if you do make it you got some streamer ripping your project apart when youre trying to juggling a heap of stuff including a team falling apart
its pretty crappy tbh ๐
that looks pretty good tbh
its never going to be great with the time constraints
but thats kinda how it is, you have to cut corners. I hate it when you go into a jam thinking people are onboard then you get left hanging
Im doing the worst art imaginable, just cuz I cbf for a prototype ๐
Finally, a piece that survived my bad composing memory. (also a so obvious nod to Unreal '98)
Sounds pretty cool
wow, there are normal rational human beings on facebook after all
turns out having a giant real size planet is a bad idea ๐
whodathunk? ๐
Bigga da planet, bigga da probs
sky atmosphere only goes so small though
I guess you could say I was running out of space ๐
hmm now the planet doesnt look big enough
shame it has to contribute to coordinate system even though its not playable space
turns out shadows were a big part of my FPS drop even though its barely stressing the GPU
bt?
Behaviour Trees, they are all individual agents
Hmm... how big is their tree? Kinda not a small number.
Its not very big but it does update fairly rapidly in comparison to proper game tasks theyd be performing
@pearl elk set their tickrate lower
Thanks for the tip, will give that a go. Ones they get stuck in worker loops it'll be less taxing than having them all randomly wandering and waiting
lets say an enemy chasing the player and grabbin its location, changin to .05 or .1 usually hardly noticable
Can the AI tick less than the rest? ๐ค
Tbh main issue is my CPU and GPUs barely used yet FPS drops so theres definitely some thread optimisations there
every BP has a tickrate
Yeah, but say just the AI task, phys/anim stuff go normal.
and if somestuff needs the tick u can still use set timer by event and let that event tick less fast
a BT doest tick, it gets ticked i think
Hmm... haven't dug in them ticks. There should be some facilities, like grouping, priorities (each parent tick, each 2 times, or timed interval) I dunno.
but if you lower the tick on a BP that doesnt count for the phys asset
So the gameplay & ai are at one place?
i dont know where u put the gameplay..
I mean, custom stuff. on tick
usually in player BP
Im seeing usage across 5 threads with one main being heaviest
anim is async
But I have 32 so yeah, doesnt scale
i mean anim has its own
Yeah I think thats the issue when gamethread gets bottlenecked the rest collapse with it
There is a wait in there, 5s+2.5s rand but theres alot of agents so theres still a heap moving all at once. One thought I had was to cap heavier movement to a certain number of agents.
The rest can do idle and worker things
at athat point there is a bunch of stuff cut
Yeah Ive seen fast pedestrian AI examples but you never know how autonomous they actually are.
Might be too much.
Use cesium, plant a bunch of AI in one spot, watch as they slowly but surely populate the earth
yoo
sup
im already in chill mode ๐
its already 2 am here
@zinc matrix a music recommendation from me
if you like 8 bit ๐
@quaint cosmos i have no mic just watching the fight
Turns out I can only get terrain data from this part of the world according to terrain.party
Are there any alternatives?
hmm might try opentopography instead
openpornography?
MapArt
Get a room you both ๐
what did I joined too
ue source opened with fork is just . . . SQUIGGLES
It's all blueprint wiring? Always has been
lmao
rainbow liquorice
where did the word liquorice even come from
People say we are getting dumber cuz of google, I say its less useless information I need in my brain which leaves room for the good stuff ๐
like being able to perform the entire bit by Gene Hackman in Young Frankenstein
just delegating tasks to our phone to fill our brains with other more useful stuff. like this:
TF When you seriously want to make a game with a certain name but some scammer has made a "MMO" with exactly same name on kickstarter
I don't know how people are making their games based on names
I didn't have a name for my project at all and was just riffing shitty names with my friend
and one of them stuck
lol
Shepard ma dude
It gives a identity to it.
Personally I feel more attached to it if it has a name that I want to release with.
Not to mention all the prefixes and names in code and BP you want to reflect that
I guess
for me the name was just such an afterthought we could easily have called it something else too :D
With an undisclosed amount of funding from undisclosed sources obviously
i just give the project a name, like this one im working on is tempest, the game doesnt have a name yet
@proud hazel ah one of those mmo's , bastards !
Not nice
I might have OCD , but if I'm making a game with the intended release name of tempest id want all code classes to begin with TP , like TPGameMode , TPPawn etc. its a personal thing ๐
That's not how the name convention is
You get the idea though
Yeah, but no
thank you
I prefix some of my base classes with Tapegame because that was less annoying to type than GameJamRewind lol
๐คฃ
the game is neither called "tape game" nor "game jam rewind"
GameJamRewind is the project's name though
since it originally was made for a game jam
i like jam
isn't there a plugin or some easy to retarget the center of mass of a mesh to the middle or a custom point ?
is a pain export just for that
Center of a volume? Hmm... Can imagine a code for that.
is kinda of pain that you have to purchase something for such simple thing
There's a center of mass thing?
well the pivot point
should just be able to drag stuff like that around in the editor
its crazy, I look at how far UE4 has come over the years and Im both impressed and disappointed at the same time
Its like when someone cooks you dinner but it tastes kinda funky, you really appreciate the effort and the fact you didnt have to do it but it still tastes funky
With the right combo of keys, you can
And yes @median wraith there is a plugin that says it does that
yeah just purchased it
its no where near as good as how Max works, the pivot in UE has been buggy since 1
I dont mind plugins but you do get to a point where managing plugins becomes counter productive for stuff which should be core
for sure, it should be a simple thing
yeah there are lots of em too, you dont really notice until you start bumping into them
someone of you know some decent example of basic movement nav on air ?
nothing fancy just like a moving cube that bounces on surfaces
AI or player?
well technically the AI needs a pawn as base the first idea was to make it pawn based but maybe is way more costly than make just a actor with a sphere as collision and move it
but AI yeah
Most stuff I have links to is for the player, only flying AI stuff I have is [free] plugin related, nothing simple sorry.
it depends on what other functionality you want, just something flying and bouncing is relatively simple, turn off gravity and give it physics. If you want ground avoidance just trace down in world space
Can someone explain to me why using UE's Control Rig system is better than making traditional anims in a 3rd party program?
Yes someone can.
You might have better luck asking on #animation or something
@pearl elk Yes, traditional is 2D animation, hand drawn
Id say the main benefit to control rig is being able to make the animations within the scene that youre working with, if you need the character to pull a lever you dont need complex IK solvers to do the work you can just smash it together in UE4 and have it work
you could do the same thing in a 3rd party app but its alot of back and forth which can cost time, especially when there are tiny hiccups in the import/export process to deal with
I think some 3rd party apps do animation in live link dont they
First item I purchased
it recenter the pivot and destroy all the normals from the mesh
nice
what did you buy?
purchased 2
the Blueprint based one thats broken
and the C++ one that didn't tested it yet
sounds like you need to get a refund
actually the BP one cost more lol

interesting plot twist ๐
I always check a few things before buying anything, main one is reviews- second is last update and if they have a discord.
no discord or low review = no buy
Most reviews are useless tho. Questions are good source for info too. Documentation. Other projects. History.
yeah reviews goes nowhere
I see a lot of assets that are crap but have possitive reviews by friends or new users
So, you burned out with pivot plugins? ๐ค
didn't tried the other
Kinda weird, that one smashes up the mesh.
is redoing the whole mesh, so maybe is because that
Really? This sounds like screwed up approach.
Moving the origin, say in dcc is freaking easy. Kind of.
Maybe its something to do with the way unreal handles meshes
sounds like an odd way around it forsure, tbh Epic should make origin and pivot relative rather than trying to force some sort of coord system
If you ask me, the origin should be just a damn vector and that all.
well no, you have te rebuild the whole mesh as the engine don't come with a setting to SET it
I exported a skeletal mesh the other night, no matter which format I used the normals came out screwed even though they look fine in UE4
Even in the C++ code?
yeah in C++ yeah but this one is BP scripting
Oof, anyway, not opening the code to look for it. Try the other one, which is native.
also BF V is for 5โฌ
Iunno, sounds like BF1-4
I bet there is some reason why they do it that way, like some sort of black magic that makes static meshes fast. Ive heard components with transforms are pretty slow so I bet some sort of relative origin would add to the equation, nothing you couldnt bake to packaged game though
I think I have seen the BP one he talks about. It creates specifically a duplicate mesh with the new pivot. Maybe the idea is per instance pivoting.

I hope once the full game comes out, WB finally steps up to bat and gives Superman the game he deserves
bit difficult to simulate faster than a speeding bullet
Difficult, but not impossible
Nobody said making a good Superman game would be easy
But hey
also unless they got kryptonite its just yawn, superman is all sorts of OP
This guys got the balls
tbh I feel like the character is flawed from the get go but thats just me
unless you make it about not being able to kill any civilians
That's a common complaint, but keep in mind that most of Superman's most OP feats have been when he's really jacked up on sunlight
You gotta think outside the box; Superman has plenty of foes who can challenge him
Marvel, DC whatever are... oof, last of interest.
Its not about foes, its about whether I think the character would be fun to play
When I was a teen I would relate, but now they are plain boring.
I have played alittle bit of Infamous, that was alright, Saints Row did abit of super stuff too
Nobody said you have to play it
I won't. Kinda adding to what Mons says.
Personally I think Superman would be fun to play, if balanced right
Control was more interesting to me than the Superman universe, I really liked how it had the paranormal aspects
I mean he has super strength, speed, heat vision, freeze breath, x-ray vision, etc
he has everything
No; he's not a reality warper
theres nothing superman cant do which is why I find it alittle bit naff
Im sure reality warping would be an interesting gameplay element
And most of his extra silver age powers are retconned anyway so
It's not like he can make miniature versions of himself anymore
what do you do if Superman loses the game? He cant right, he's Superman
so there is no risk
Superman is still mortal and has weaknesses
sure he dies occasionally but he never really died right, which is kinda what I hope for because we have too many superheroes as is ๐
Hit him with enough kryptonite, he goes down
maybe Mario could take him out
That didn't stop the Arkham games from being made
Batman's died and resurrected before too so
You know
Batman is human atleast
So? There have been plenty of superpowered video game protagonists
how do you make a game where Superman could just fly anywhere he actually could
its not about that dude
its about Superman
Being OP is boring
I think the character is old fashioned and deserves retirement
So by that logic, I guess you don't like the Bayonetta games?
You sound like Lex Luthor, lol
Nah
Id rather play as Lex Luthor tbh
Havent' played any, so kinda yeah
Superman is the greatest and probably the most iconic fictional character for a reason
He needs a high quality game
It is hard to balance, the point
I think technically in every video game where combat is involved to some degree the player is OP - except 1 v 1 fighting games :P
Lol, you really do sound like Lex Luthor
Also that, so much digested character.
I mean really Superman wouldnt be able to stay on Earth without a passport the MiB would get him
Well, at least in some you have some progression. Gradual challenges, reasoning behind this.
get deported back to some alien joint where he belongs, acting all USA when he's just an import ๐
There is a saying in one culture, they have a god who can do everything. That's why he does nothing all the time.
Actually due to the Foundling Statute, Superman technically is a legal immigrant
Superman's not God
Anyway
If a god exists outside of time, then you can't really say if they are or are not doing something 
Yeah, we old farts
closed minded is people hanging on the same character for almost 100 years
Or at least me, after a bean-rich breakfast.
Jeez, you really got beef against Superman, don't you?
You work at LexCorp?
I don't see why people say Superman's boring
He's too perfect in a sense I guess
His stories involve larger-than-life adventures
The most important thing is, if you enjoy it, go enjoy it. Like don't be like the other who does not. You may change your opinion later for sure.
Ah, shit, wrong reply.
And the whole idea of him is that he's a man with incredible gifts who has the moral resolve not to use his powers for selfishness or evil, but to serve his fellow man in hopes of a better world, even if the answer isn't always clear
I dont like him because for an alien he's far too human, like alot of superheroes, I think its supremely unrealistic
That's why people IRL look up to him
Homelander from The Boys is more interesting
He's an ideal of morality
Everyone in The Boys is really fucked up tho 
He's an alien, yet very human
he's human cuz kids need some sort of role model to look up to
Well I'd rather have Superman around than Homelander
basically just a gloried policeman like most of DCs early stuff
There's actually a Superman story that tackles that and Superman realizes the answer isn't as simple https://youtu.be/yXaieRIuBIg

Superman is a fictional character and a superhero who first a...
least Batman was more film noir
That sounds dope. Can eat as much you want ๐ค
The Shadow is one of my personal favourites
Tbh sounds like you kinda give into believing the common misconceptions about Superman
the answer is never simple, Superman has to struggle with human drama
Or at least the straw man arguments against him
but he has all these powers which are ultimately useless
cuz he's human and we all fail
yaaaawn

Now that's a poser
ponkkis translate
That a Chad
Isn't that what makes him relatable?
for you maybe
Exactly, so what's boring about that?
Im not you
Ah
deal with it ๐
Preference
Well still
I'm glad the dev of Undefeated cares enough to make a prototype for a good Superman game
maybe it's actually a batman game but he just messed up
Sounds about the same, lol
I mean I get it you know all the lore, the deets n all that junk but I still dont think it makes a good game. Not to say it couldnt be done its just for a character with so much money behind it why hasnt it been done already, I think its because the task is quite gargantuan. I actually liked Injustice personally, but its not really a superman story
Well then he must really not know Batman
lol
Eh, I still have hope
I just think there are a heap of ideas out there which could be awesome, some I have hope for but they'll just never get done and Superman the largest issue is that not anyone can do it. If he was open source I think Id like his alien ass abit more
Errrm... lmao
Wym by open source?
you cant just use Superman willy nilly or any superhero no matter how old they are
even though the concepts behind them are rather generic by todays standards
Elaborate
the whole laser eyes, razor claws yawn fest
its all very tightly protected by the powers that be
Oh you mean WB
not just WB, all of em. Im actually surprised The Boys didnt get hit
Even if you have a character with the same powers of a popular hero, as long as it's not that hero themselves, you won't get sued
there's been games where you can create your own superheroes but if you can make anything like a protected one watch out, its all pretty crappy since some of its generic enough that it should be public domain
Brightburn is the best Superman Ive seen and its not Superman ๐
I disagree, but yeah
And Brightburn hasn't gotten sued to my knowledge
you just think Superman HAS to be a beacon of freedom, hope, justice etc etc
I mean that's what he's all about
which is why I think he's boring
Ironman was actually an alcoholic at one point and lost the use of his legs because of it, in the movies they changed it to his power source infecting him
Yeah I know; I didn't like that change
if youre gonna make a character human I prefer to see it not just living on a farm with your GF
our gf
I'll make a superhero who has the power to extend their arm through the internet and slap people on the other side
Guaranteed success
Awesome
Hm...sounds like a mix between Plastic Man and the Thinker
I prefer imperfect, it more closely mimics the chaotic nature of the universe. I think Superman lives outside of any sort of reality he inhabits, not a very believable character and its not because of the powers
Superman is imperfect though
If he wasn't he'd never make mistakes or feel negative emotions
no he isnt, thats just arcs they put in. At the end of the day he is invulnerable and perfect
like Dominic Toretto, theres no risk
It is hard to write a good character.
https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/Patrick_O'Brian_(New_Earth)
https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/Clifford_DeVoe_(New_Earth)#:~:text=The Thinker was a member,the Flashes of two eras.
ngl, plastic man sounds like menace for the environment
Is his hair invulnerable? ๐ค
why do aliens even have hair
I guess all that grease to keep it in place is flammable
That will cost him a lot of razors to maintain.
Just because Superman had a strong moral resolve doesn't mean everything is always easy for him
That has a point.
Imagine other areas, ewww
๐คทโโ๏ธ
His greasy hair at least.
Well there you go
Im surprised he's never killed his GF while boning her
lol
So saying he's perfect isn't even correct about his hair
Superman can control his strength very well
wouldnt it be more interesting if he couldnt
But if you guys want a game where you get to fight Superman, you're getting your fill soon https://youtu.be/92GBo7o_4kA
SUICIDE SQUAD: KILL THE JUSTICE LEAGUE Trailer (2021) Superhero Rocksteady Video Game HD, Harley Quinn, Dark Superman
ยฉ 2020 - Warner
which is why I like the X-Men, theres some really interesting things which happen to them
they struggle with their powers
X-Men has too many characters for me to follow, but to each their own
Superman is just like no worries, all easy
Definitely not
yeah there should only be one super hero, he can be called Superman ๐
He has plenty of enemies who can challenge him
Seems like you're trying to put words in my mouth
But yeah
Brainiac, Parasite, Metallo, Mr. Mxyzptlk, Lex Luthor, Darkseid, Doomsday, Toyman, Magog, Imperiex, Mongul, etc, can and have all given Superman a run for his money one time or another
I think Id rather play as any one of those
Well perhaps there could be a level where you can
I can in Injustice, I play as Doomsday abit
Reminds me of Cyrax
Draining Superman and others of their energy
Lex Luthor I thought would be interesting cuz rather than just giving him an exoskeleton there could be other mechanics rather than just super powers
He'd pretty much be like a kryptonite Iron Man
But yeah
youre fighting against a superior being so you gotta use your brain, that appeals to me much more from a gameplay perspective
Well that's the appeal of Lex; he's a perfect foil to Superman, even if he's not as powerful
That's not to say Superman isn't smart
Lex just often uses Superman's morality against him
The trolley problem and all that
Wrong Lex
lol
There is a Robot Chicken sketch about that though https://youtu.be/mUXRnTHbxYo?t=45
Either way
Didn't know you guys would be this critical of a Supes game
But I'm sure someone else on the server wants one
I think Mons just likes to argue lol
Im just bored of the 100 year old character and would prefer something fresh
its not hard to understand
Though your profile pic is Hitler, so why should I take anything you say to heart?
I'd wanna play a Superman game which doesn't stop you from just being Homelander lol
Bizarro mode
Easy fix
Yeah that'd be interesting but probably never gonna happen
There could be like a separate campaign where you play as Bizarro
Never say never
Maybe the comic book authors would consider this, but pretty sure the big corporation that holds the rights is too afraid of videos on YouTube where Superman murders civilians
if they actually build metropolis thatd be cool, rather than just using NYC
But it wouldn't be Superman; it'd be Bizarro, his delusional imperfect clone
when in doubt pull the multiverse card
Heck they already did this in a previous Supes game https://youtu.be/w_4g46zEM30
Showing off another feature of this game, becoming Bizarro, and trying to complete challenges for bonuses.
totally unpredictable
Nah, tbh I'm tired of multiverse crap
previous Superman game... nevah, thats why we need one!
also it's not Hitler, it's the Death Knight who is the final boss in Spear of Destiny :P
Bizarro exists for a reason
Oh, I thought it was Wolfenstein Hitler
mecha hitler in wolf has 4 miniguns :D
Whatever, I'm sure you can see the resemblance
lol
I guess technically the Death Knight is a nazi officer
I've been wondering when someone would bring this topic up lol
Yes, but that game was only pretty good, at best
I mean like a game that's as good in quality for Superman as Spidey PS4
yeah most games are duder, it takes real talent to make great games.
I just see all these clones and wonder what would happen if those resources were put towards original ideas, so dont take it personally. Its just my take on entertainment as a whole
I know, but that's why I'm glad the dev of Undefeated is at least trying to show it's possible
They probably want WB to take the hint too
Well not just take the hint, but act on it too
good luck with that, try not to be disappointed
I respect that
But again
This is Superman we're talking about
Arguably the most influential fictional character ever
but thats why some people are sick of hearing about it, just like Star Wars
imagine if you heard stuff about Days of our Lives for all your life
So then, you're tired of hearing people talk about Superman?
Im tired of the character yes, Ive seen all the recent incarnations Ive seen the late 70s stuff
Oh I didn't know
Sorry if I bothered you
Im not sure why you feel the need to defend it, it belongs to WB not you
Well because Superman is my favorite character ever and his stories helped me out of a dark place in my life
perhaps lead with that
And the more I thought about him, the more I thought about helping others and being kind
Even if I fall short
You did come pretty close to calling me a nazi... 
In a way, the idea of Superman helped me think of the bigger picture and what I can do to help people
Not that I'm a saint or anything
apparently everyone who doesnt agree is a villian
but maybe Lex Luthor is just misunderstood ๐
Sorry if I offended you, I just meant it as a joke
I'm sorry if I came off that way
It wasn't my intention
In a way he is and he does have some valid points about Superman
I mean I'd be a bit scared of Superman too if he existed
But if he was really as virtuous as we know him to be, I guess I'd try to know him better
every hero needs a villain right, without them they are nothing. Thats probably one of the most profound things about Star Wars is the balance between light and dark, the awareness of the fundamentals of the universe even in fiction
Lex, on the other hand, lets his ego cloud his judgement of Superman
He sees him as an Anti-Christ figure
I must admit I judge anyone who goes around wearing spandex
holy molly, 1h still about superman & co
Gonna put a dinner
It is an odd choice for a costume, that's probably why Superboy just wears a t-shirt and jeans
There are times where he genuinely wants to help others, but his hatred of Superman gets in the way
if a game actually explored stuff rather than just being about super powers and combat
thats one thing I like about say Uncharted, is it has combat but there are other sections which tie it all together
Yeah, Spidey PS4 has a good balance of that
I don't see why there couldn't be just Clark Kent levels
Maybe just visiting the Kent farm in Smallville and helping out
It's moments like those that remind you Superman is still a man in a way
I dunno if you've seen Jupiters Legacy but its interesting how the teens struggle with their power and responsibility, for a game progression is pretty important and its difficult to say oh Superman doesnt have this ability randomly cuz of X. It would be better for him to grow into it but that doesnt really fit with the history unless you go right back to Smallville
True
Or
Perhaps there's some power-dampener
Or maybe it doesn't have to take place solely in Metropolis
Nothing wrong with a more arcade style approach but I think for a character with so much lore on hand it would be kinda a shame not to use it
Also common foes wouldn't be street thugs like for Spidey and Bats
They'd probably be LexCorp troops, Brainiac drones, parademons, etc
Keep in mind too I grew up playing arcade brawlers so thats not really a fresh take for me, for younger people it might be
Yeah
You should also get rewarded for helping out around Metropolis
Like say, during a battle, you get more points for the less property damage you cause
But you could redeem those points if you choose to repair the damages afterwards
It'd be true to Superman's character while also giving you an option to wreck stuff
this is the sort of issues I see because it typically is fun in games to do the bad guy stuff
who doesnt want to destroy everything they see, The Hulk fits that mould pretty well
Like I said, Bizarro mode
Easy fix
Bizarro would be the opposite
You get more points the more damage you cause
could play the multiverse off each other, so you switch
somehow the events of two line up in some sort of convergence where the progression is linear but you play across both
or depending on how well you play each thats the one that wins out
Yeah
Also I think the combat system would be cool
Sure it wouldn't be as acrobatic as Bats or Spidey
But Superman can fight and implementing his powers would be nice
There could be combo where you knock an enemy into the air, fly up, and knock em back down into the pavement
Use freeze breath to keep them in place
Heat vision as a ranged option
Etc
be super hard not to kill people tbh lol
Again, these would be enemies who could take Superman's hits
Good example here https://youtu.be/DYjIEr1-rVU
This is just one of Brainiac's many drones
Yeah, Superman can really pack a punch
As long as the fight is challenging enough, I don't see why that'd be boring
thats more of the issue I was talking about gameplay implementation
Just don't overthink it
what works on screen doesnt always work in game
IIRC there was an indie game where the health bar was how intact the city was
so if you went too crazy, the city breaks= you die
Eh, I don't really think that'd work well for Superman
they did QTE things in DC vs MK which is the only way I really see some of his moves working
Wym?
it would be too difficult to let a person punch then fly really fast and go past em after they fly through a building to punch em down
but thats what makes Superman, its not punching someone from 6 ft off the ground
True
I'd argue it does, especially as one of his most infamous speeches is how he holds back to avoid collateral damage.
is there some human way to rotate a parent capsule ?
you could do bullet time but I still think its problematic because slowing time makes hits look like they dont hit hard or it doesnt convey the speed
Adjust rotation?
Yeah
Why not just lower XP for upgrades for the more damage you cause?
That makes more sense to me
Certainly an option, yes.
if you mean capsule as root I dont think there is, you need a scene component with the capsule as a child
that won't work properly with physics
on multiplayer at least I think
only parent is replicated
Could also implement his drill move
Though it might be a bit janky
Anyway, I think we've run our course on this conversation
I gtg anyway
@pearl elk @foggy path nice talking to you
yup its an issue, maybe use a staticmesh as collision like a rotated capsule and do your own physics and replication
Is there someone or someone you know that is good with the houdini workflow creating procedural cliffs getting them game ready?
Looking for a tutor

Superman derives his superpowers from the sun, so it really should be possible to defeat him by spraypainting him with metallic paint.
It has to be laxatives. If he ever encountered kryptonite without them, the pressure in his gut would expand and disembowel him.

real shot in the dark here, but how are you zipping files these days? I've been using 7zip, but when I use settings for highest compression, either nobody uses 7zip, or when I zip as an a .zip it will still error out even from winrar, you need 7zip unless your using it's default settings
I usually just use windows' builtin zip function
I never had issues with 7zip compression, but I don't remember if I ever changed defaults for it
gonna give it a try
I looked up some max compression guides, tried a few various options for better compression but it couldn't be unzipped outside of 7zip
Odd, I tried zip on ultra from 7zip and it worked just fine
with windows' builtin zip to decompress it, that is
thats crazy, thats the only setting you've changed? is it zipping as 7z?
no, regular zip
I left everything else as-is, Compression zip, Compression level Ultra
I changed a few other settings, and thats probably what messed up the zip outside of 7zip, going to reset it and just try with ultra, and .zip
cheers ๐
Ah
I suspect if you changed algorithm to something else than Deflate that might affect it
hahaha oh wait a minute, maybe it's because I had cranked up the cpu threads to max, would it try and use the same amount of threads even if the other user doesn't have that many? lol
That seems unlikely ๐ค
tested it and changed algo to LZMA --> Windows zip handling borks out
so if you changed algo that was probably it
yeah your right, I vaguely remember something about RAM usage on the other end through some setting or something. ahh yeah that must be it, got it default now, going to see if that with ultra and zip works with windows
see but then I'm like, "but what if I crank up the word size, it should give me 1.3% better compression" lol
:D
Ultra seems to increase it already
so maybe you could increase that to whatever it allows as maximum without breaking it
seems like Microsoft managed pretty well the foliage in the new forza
waves at tencent
whats wrong with tencent in the context of epic games? sounds like they turned down a trillions offer by google to buy epic so that big studios dont hop ship from play store, had the op to snuff out the comp, could have prob gotten away with it since they are a non US company, yet didn't
what in the living fuck is that giff
Is there anyone out there that knows Houdini really well I can DM
Whats wrong with it being in #volunteer-projects ?
Seems appropriate to me...
They arent paying people, therefore #volunteer-projects is correct.
Go to their server? Or use the job channels.
jesus thats alot to ask for Unpaid, i cant even find a single unpaid concept artist ๐คฃ
Able to create. Humanoids.
I mean you can always ask but that's gonna be pretty hard to fill
Considering it looks like the person who created that has picked up game dev within the last year or so based on their youtube activity it seems to be one of these "if you really love that game concept"
yip how many times have we seen that
I can do concepts too, they just not beautiful for the outsiders.
i just need a few "monster" concepts, hell they can even be line drawings at this stage
I dunno "must have discord" seems redundant if youre posting it on discord Id think

@zinc matrixew that looks so bad (the icarus)
and gameplay also looks hella boring
It's a survival game, looks par for the course.
but is it a survival game if you cant really die irl
someone has openai access? can u search something fo rme?
No.
The answer...
Maybe not
A bit hard to implement though
And not exactly legal in a lot of countries
yet people die playing games all the time
so maybe life is the game and its playing you
... there was a famous model buses, Icarus, btw.
Or end craft recipe. Gotta a bus to drive around.
I can imagine. I mean, look at that.
It's a bus game under the cover.
I think i might have seen those in our public transport up until the early 2000s ๐
Quite possible, these were relentless afaik.

whats everyone up to ?
procrastinating
trying to empty 70 boxes after a move
upgraded from 62 mยฒ to a 89 mยฒ and it feels small already
ow u can make an unboxing youtube channel
Depends. So far I don't know an woman which can't use all the available space. 40? 40. 80? 80 no problem.
if I had 80sqm space I'd probably have to buy more furniture to not have it look empty ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
that 80 sqm is split between two floors though
upstairs we have two bedrooms, a bathroom and a sauna
then downstairs a living room and the dining room kitchen combo
but yeah, most of the furniture is still wrapped up in protective plastic ๐
I bet your room layout is not an awkawrd circle slice
you live in Helsinki?
Oulu
tupack means room?
oh, thought that was this building... hang on
short for tupakeittiรถ
so a living room + kitchen nook
I don't understand why anyone would design a round building
the architect probably hates furniture
"oh you want a rectangular table against the wall? YOU CAN'T HAVE IT!"
also corners that aren't 90 degrees
No idea :D
time to get an angle grinder
angle grinders are great, but sometimes I wanna grind straight
can i use BP interfaces to get a reference to my character in a widget bp instead of casting ?
Someone here used the lightmaps scenes ?
noooooo
Are there other operating systems one can install on an m1 mac?
Three points on a straight line is still an angle.
And if that straight line is really really long it's probably contorted to fit into spacetime and from an outside perspective not straight at all.
@mossy nexus turns out the light question was actually a issue related with the engine ๐
yep
Also I was expecting something more here
#thingsyoucansayaboutRTXGIbutnotwhenyouarewithyourlover
Is it reasonable to have a fear of someone stealing your project?
only if its already super successful :p
more likely they'll steal the idea from the same source you did
I'm now thinking of light houses and how they built them
Do they just get a boat, some stones, and build what they can while the conditions are right
the light was placed first, then they build around it
Was thinking about the ones built on rocks but yes, ideally you would do that
This for example, why is it all the way out here? I don't know
built on the corpses of boats and sailors who died there
The water is not always that bad
could be shallow rocks under there
I think they just used a relatively small lamp that was amplified by the lenses
hot wings showed up, so... cant type for a bit ๐
That might explain why it was built all the way from the shore. The water is probably too shallow to be navigable
A non-electric lamp, you know, practically a candle
Don't think something out there would be on the grid anyway ๐
hmmmm
Just make a relaxing experience
isnt that just bioshock ๐

@forest sparrow this game you stream crashed the first 20 seconds 2 times when i have tried it and it has really not such good controls, there are better similar designs on mobile
its pretty much like a mobile game design
this new ASSAO tech looks like the arse ๐ https://twitter.com/zebedee666/status/1432937872441573377?s=19

Relies on integrated spatial denoising filter and will leverage TAA for temporal accumulation when used. With TAA is faster and higher qual for fine geometry features than HBAO+ and our previous ASSAO (or CACOA which uses ASSAO)
Why does CPU get more used at 1440 than 1080p in the same game with the same settings ?
If I had to guess the render thread doing something dependent on the resolution ๐คทโโ๏ธ

btw anyone know any uses for the iphone 12s lidar scanner in gamedev?
As for English, I kinda prefer lesser known ones to have their chance, and not waste money on A-tier list.
I know for one thing that my game caters on anime niche, thus English dubs often kinda set aside.
@tribal cipher i would use it to scan objects and stuff to use as a base for 3d modeling. But I would build on top of them and not use the scans, not detailed enough
Never used LIDAR scanner.
But then again, using photorealistic stuff just to satisfy the top of the line hardware isn't my kind of thing to begin with. Always believing in stylized stuff.
CS Go sucks anyway
A lovely lady from Perforce just called me ๐
hey man wanna buy some helix
she didnt mention buying once ๐ฎ
just asked how the set up went and what it was being used for
then how do you know it was perforce
cause .. err... well.. err .. i dunno ๐
Maybe it was one of those give me remote access scams
It was great talking with you today! Here is an email with my contact information, feel free to reach out with any questions you have! I hope to hear from you in the future!

true lol
and why is it as soon as you install perforce, UE complains about not using a shared data cache?
Played the other day BF Firestorm and welp, the idea overall seems good but tey failed to balance that
yup which is why yet again i say EA lost their way with the BF franchise long ago

aww when did that start
early childhood, adulthood or

how would you describe your relationship with your mother considering the bananas you rub on her ^^;
if you have no time to loose than why insist on starting fights with those around you?
hes big smarts so he must have a solution for that equation
oh
did he get thanos'd?
hrr... what's with all that drama lately, tc tc tc...
What happened?
Nothing. Nothing happened... move along... ๐
someuwune wus bein a badsywatsy lillewille boii
So he's been in lovey dovey with @charred sleet?
I imagined that pronouncation.
he was being a nusiance but i thought id entertain him to keep the general help channel * clean~
Also just realised that Metal Gear is practically a retcon fest
Okay then, was under impression he's trying to hook up with you lol
I can't see a difference, tbh. Had both 4.10 and 4.26 installed.
he was being a pest and starting fights with literally everyone Zzz
so i moved him to louge to keep chat clean and keep him pre occupied until he consciously realizes how dumb hes being .-.
than he got thanos'd lmao
Alright then 

@quasi mantle what cpu you have ?
Potato i5-6200
well the difference is big with any material to me really
and more on forward shading
you can notice it on a transparent material for example
Anyway, the jam thingie really exhausted me, and in the end, screwed over by power outages.
this fucking river tool in 4.26 is beyond broken ๐ก
Well, duh.
where is funny image channel?

I'm going to tentatively tweet about finally releasing my free #Blender rigging add-on... It's got auto IK/FK amongst other scripted mechanics you won't find anywhere else...
Oh it's also modular and agnostic (no metarigs!)

Rigify is kinda broken tho 
Ayy lmao
I can't call myself a game dev unless I've touched on a bit of everything
I've done physics, UI, 3D modelling, a bit of landscape design ages ago
Try sound design 
Challenge: make a convincing sound effects with just using synthesis (waves and noise) and common filters.
I was meant to do some of that actually. Just haven't got down to it yet
ngl sound effects are difficult..
irq 20
Piezo beepers aren't bad tbh
It's just kinda difficult to make really good use of.
Some tracker music players are capable to play the samples with just using PC speakers, at the cost of CPU usage.
o/ hi
does dlss even work with styliced graphics?
I suspect yes.
DLSS 2 has been trained with more general images and less of a game specific cases, unlike DLSS 1.
Thus DLSS as a plugin is a thing.
Back then you have to submit build of your game to NVIDIA to be trained for DLSS 1.
It surprises me the TAA we got looks kinda sharp for some reason but in the bad way
like non smooth edges
oh wow the side effects on shadows
looks way worst at DLSS like is rendering at lower scale and looks like x2 times smaller
hey guys i would like to know your opinions on this . its a feature i have wanted in unreal for a long time
btw the code is just a templet ๐ of windows basic program
if it was an actual live editor then yeah that'd be nice
I suspect live changes without rebuild/restart is not gonna happen though
O and where would you find that then ?
dunno where else to say this but manny isnt letting me post a job
acts like the bot has blocked me
thnx
trying to write lore for this project at the same time im writing my book
kinda hard when they are chronologically so far apart
This makes me angry.
Makes me wanna scream, "It's not UE5, you moron! It's already a thing in UE4."
God, I hate Unreal Engine clickbaiters.
general viewers of YT obviously dont know any better
He's more of a general games clickbaiter
The kind of person that says...

When it isn't a remake it's just a scene
Mass Effect 5 looks awesome in UE5 remake

๐คฃ omg behave
My question is, does it work?
idk
Yeah, he seems to be one of those "Look at this amazing thing, download a FREEEE!!! demo game I made" also deletes any comments that tell people the original creators. Feckin' muppet.

wait. i wanna download ue5 remake
why are people not using the pak encryption ?! i could right now export every dam file from 2 big name games made in UE
Not enabled by default? :P
ya know, that may even be the case, or they think itll slow things down to much :/
@mossy nexuswow
can someone pls tell me why my c++ file is not in the add component window???
maybe its shy? ๐
Yeah know "Youtubers"
he even give away in a web contents from the marketplace as is packaged
Might make a post process material like that, if I have the mood to do so :3
Though might be as simple as lerping desaturated scene texture with the normal one with a grid texture as the alpha
Sounds like an idea ๐
