If they teach unity, run

thick belfry

Haha

Most of it is in unreal

If you wanna program C++ is required

Sounds legit then

thick belfry
#

They do have a bit of unity and godot for some classes/projects

#

But only for the design and art side

signal citrus
#

Hm

tulip orbit
#

Hopefully they dont pull a fast one like my college did, and switch from c++ to Java and Delphi AFTER I paid my money

Wouldn't work with the internship programs since most of their affiliated studios use unreal

And C++

median wraith
signal citrus
#

Thank you

thick belfry
#

Is what paid?

#

The internship?

#

Well your last year you can do either research or internship or start your own studio, but its your responsibility so it would depend on the place you find an internship at

#

But the schools here are rarely just for profit (unless it's a private school) since our max tuition is about 1500 euros a year

#

So I do have good faith in the college of not screwing us over

#

But you never know

Damn, that sounds pretty tough I would probably burn out pretty quickly in such an environment

#

Those kinds of stories are probably the biggest disadvantage I see to working in games

#

True, gotta be careful where exactly you go study/work in games

#

Ive done a bunch or research and it isnt all like that luckily (especially here in europe where labour laws are stricter)

#

But the pay discrepancy stays

Could always make your own games

ds is not roguelike

#

its an arpg

#

the combat takes time to get use to because its about reading enemy animations and pre-emptively inputting attacks - knowing the speed of your weapons. one would compare it roughly to monster hunter, but not about grinding for gear

verbal junco
#

it's not hard it's just lateral game design

huh, my problem would be i doubt i'd have the coordination to read and master the timing of it all

#

i died about 10 times to the first few hollows in ds 2, but i got the hang of it rather quickly

but generally dark souls is one of those games you have to play if you want a design job in the industry. Not necessarily completely, but most certainly play and understand it

just wondering wtf they are tracing from for the muzzle blocking thing

and its not the muzzle

cause weapon in relaxed state or penetrating wall, also shows that block image

I think it might be from the player head, I remember at some point while I played that they added the trace from the weapon but I think that has been replaced, could be wrong

doesnt really look like its from the head tho

but that would not work if the muzzle was penetrating wall/in relaxed state

Could be something like that

here maybe this can shed some more light

A point on the shoulder maybe?

that's what it kinda looks like

It must be super mundane

Or it mines while you play? Idk how that works

quasi mantle
#

They aren't philanthropists that's for sure. Something has to be lost in return.

tidal ivy

I believe the game side doles out the currency over time

so it's already pre-mined

and yeah, there's always a catch

signal citrus
#

Fortnite has this holiday fire thing you can sit in front of and generate xp

Thatโ€™d be a prime opportunity to mine some crypto cooking mama style lol

There are already lots of environmental concern with "traditional" crypto mining already, let alone whatever Metaverse bandwagon has to offer up its sleeve.

Oh man I did a system 2 years ago learning the lambas and crap and things of these fancy in C++

because scene capture has to render the whole scene again

now turns my code is outdated

like every cars game for example forza forces last lod

here you cannot set per camera such things I bet

celest musk
#

yea, at least you can white/blacklist stuff on the scene capture

#

not sure if there's a LOD setting either

#

but i wouldn't want to have all low LODs in memory too

#

i would render them once to texture, if you don't need to update the view

#

or you can decrease the fps on the capture

but where you set the render actor filter ?

or technically no since I let it growth for first time once I had 23

stiff crystal
#

I guess I can say I'll always have more hair than decade ago - unless it all falls off some day

#

kept bald look for year or 1.5

#

shaving the head nonstop was kinda pita though

#

also learned that having to protect the bald head in the summer is a thing

@zinc matrix you did icons and such, do you or someone knows if is possible to create a canvas and then create unique textures for runtime, ala lets say 10 textures without have 10 physical render target materials ?

quasi mantle
#

I suppose the items are the buttons, and the grid is mainly decorative

stiff crystal
#

wouldn't it be way easier to just do RT capture in Unreal for the icons?

#

would be easier to adjust things too

dense storm
#

if only i had that kinda money to splash out haha

last matrix
median wraith
#

tbh I did myself that for a client

#

but there is a fancy node that creates physical texture objetcs

#

isn't something I can use for runtime

tulip orbit
#

Cant you use a texture atlas? then its only 1 image loaded per item

median wraith
#

you mean a custom material or with the new array textures ?

median wraith
#

seems like cannot paint on the array ones

tulip orbit
#

dunno what the new array textures are ๐Ÿ˜

#

if you need me, I'll be in the past

median wraith
#

this are textures arrays

#

collections of textures into a single packaged texture

#

basically the same you pointed but auto managed

tulip orbit
#

ahh, ok

median wraith
#

but BPs don't have exposed some of these tools

foggy path
#

I'm using t2darrays for my wall painting thing, never had to really do anything in BP's for it as it was just a material thing to select appropriate one from array

median wraith
#

yeah I just wanted to create the array in runtime

@ionic flame, :8ball: Yes.

@median wraith you might be the person with the most messages on this discord. (according to search)

median wraith
#

So what I won ?

#

The love from all the server

stiff crystal
#

I'm only 30k behind

#

need to keep spamming

#

133k is quite impressive, considering I only have 19k messages on Unity discord

#

I'm actually wondering how this happened since I'm pretty active there

#

oh wait nevermind, wrong discord. 57k on Unity

deep glen
#

there are a few people close, but the highest count we found so far was Hev. just checking because of funzies. :p

median wraith
#

120k are rants about Unity and UE4, 5k are nudes and the rest are questions

#

yes but how many have in Godot ?

#

Well you are too ๐Ÿค”

#

I got this as gift from my lord

stiff crystal
#

that Unity discord has existed only for few years so I think the avg message count is still comparable

median wraith
#

I know some dude that's professional dev of Unity and released some games and moved to Godot

#

I'm praying for he

stiff crystal
#

whatever works

#

just hope he doesn't do 3D games

#

ogre ftw

median wraith

He don't even know yet Godot don't even have LODs

whats a good free 2d engine? ๐Ÿ˜„

stiff crystal

ogre was still cool

#

I mean there wasn't anything else available really

median wraith
#

Ogre and all their friends back in the days when by 2010 we didn't had much more, oh yeah

stiff crystal
#

Unity and UDK changed everything for indies

median wraith
#

Yeah, write your own for heavy purposes or use one of these dense frameworks or go directly to Godot

#

O3DE that game changer, what happened with it ?

stiff crystal
#

LY was always horrible to begin with

#

and on O3DE they removed CE renderer, so it's now mostly game engine filled with unproven tech

zinc matrix
#

i think godot lacks some open-source projects that rookies can contribute

#

like a specie of Minecraft where custom maps are included in the game core rather than part downloads in some private driven forum

Like, when the video in the center console was uploaded?

zinc matrix
#

idk, open source artwork feels a hard thing to share

#

i read somewhere that an open-source game had a bad time embedding some other people work into their core game

#

as far as cooperating behavior goes into today society, it does not feel natural to have your windows all open to anyone

#

and idk when it will be

stiff crystal
zinc matrix
#

but imagine Minecraft implementing community creations as villages or even dungeon caves

#

not even mentioning some mods that with a bit of more aesthetic fit, would take the game way far than it is already

#

never played this one

#

is Roblox free to include any content?

#

like, i mad a map and a game logic and i can insert on game without any problem

#

what is rubles?

#

hmmm

soft night
#

i saw sandbox game

zinc matrix
#

i think that is where it lies the problem

#

not meaning to throw stones

#

but usually people make some stuff way off game is core aesthetic

#

like realistic buildings on minecraft

#

the scale is way bigger than the player

#

as it is build on blocks that the ratio is 2:1 of player height

#

so a functional Chinese or Japanese aesthetic architecture build will never fit into game survival

#

which i think it is the main feature of it

#

as it started as creative mode before alpha version release

#

maybe some rules or debelopers judgment of what fits the game idea or not, and yeah, playing the user creators for it

#

had you played Heaven & Hearth?

#

that is a good example of including players creation into โ€œcommunityโ€

#

the map resets from time to time

#

which is a bit bad

#

but at least make not players build dominating guilds all over

like Albion does i think

Whats the diff? My main reason to do github is so i can track my changes to the engine source, and reimplement when i upgrade

tulip orbit
#

Thought github was free, up to a point

#

well, not quite that big. But Ive only modified the chaos vehicle plugin, so I could just do that bit

#

Upload the original, then upload my edited version to compare the differences

#

realistically, my changes are fairly minor and I could probably document them in a text file and just say "This bit was on line 485, just after function makeVehicleGlitch()"

median wraith
#

It's an easy process

tulip orbit

๐Ÿ˜„

broken sigil
#

looks over at the 200GB large 5.0 build

tulip orbit
#

my zip of ue5 is only 500mb

median wraith
#

ironically the version with realtime GI takes more space

#

This days still don't know how games like APB made their level

tulip orbit
#

all the bugs take up a lot of space ๐Ÿ˜„

median wraith
#

I built a level illumination tha'ts like 1/10 of the size of that map and took 1h and 2GB

tulip orbit
#

render farms probably

median wraith
#

yeah but that game wasn't that big

#

like the amount of objects wasn't that big, maybe on the new level got more actors on this small thing than what they had back in the days

#

also way more resolution lightmaps

#

still the GI system on UE5 is bit of sad to be used for this use cases idk

#

the view range is limited to 200m I think

tulip orbit
#

rich people problems

#

i'm stuck with two 27"

deep glen
#

im stuck with three 32"
the horror

tulip orbit
#

ah, yeah that seems lowres for a 40"

soft night
#

i am stuck with 22" 3D vision ready

clear cape
#

2x25"

stiff crystal
#

3D vision lol

#

that was nice concept

#

I guess the size of the monitors back then was one of the reason why it never gained much traction

#

3D effect is nice but you can't really immerse yourself in that 22" view yet

#

I have very mixed monitor setup here, 24" 1200p TN on left, 27" 1440p IPS on middle and 24" 1080p IPS on right

#

does the job but would be nice to have three same spec monitors instead

soft night
#

think ultrawide 3di vision displays then

stiff crystal
#

but as long as triplescreen gaming is the mess that it is... it doesn't really matter

#

I feel that only way to get friction free gaming setup with wide screen is just to get one of those super ultrawides that are like size of 2x27" monitors

soft night
#

well stacking those ultra wide ones

stiff crystal
#

if I only ever did gaming on the monitor, it would be no-brainer to get one.. (if have budget for it)

#

just look at it

#

for productive use... I feel that you'd still need more screenspace

#

I've been down to two monitors at times but it's pain

#

you could always have extra monitors with these super wide monitors too I guess but at the same time, you kinda want that best one in the middle anyway

verbal junco
#

also screen sharing a wide af monitor onto a regular monitor is a pain in the behind

#

I do wonder as well when letterboxing has to kick in. I can't imagine what a strange feeling it must be playing something at 60 FOV with a wide monitor like that

tulip orbit
#

I dont think I'd go bigger than a 30" monitor, bigger would take up too much desk space

#

tho the ultrawide would be nice for a game like euro truck sim

verbal junco
#

sim games yeah

#

but in reality, what else?

man the render targets give different results depend of the day XD

Okay so I got a component that isn't rendering on cameras

but it renders on viewport

#

someone have an idea about why this happen ?

#

nope

#

is pure BP

#

Like I'm in the viewport of the engine

I were thinking the 2d render camera were wrong but the selected one is a camera I just drag drop in the scene

#

I mean the other 2 cubes in scene have these exact vars

#

oh man

#

idk whats going on

Okay so will need to redo the whole actor because is an editor utility actor

#

and cannot be reparented

found the problem

what the heck

The Editor Only Actors are checked because you don't want them to cook, not because don't render in the editor viewport....

well... crap... forgot to pause humble monthly

now paid full $12 for bunch of games I'll never play

they've tried to offer me $6 off for half a year now but now but there's just not been anything of interest there so always just kept pausing

median wraith
#

they allow to pause now?

stiff crystal
#

they've always allowed that

#

you just have to remember to do that

median wraith
#

I thought they don't also don't let you keep all

stiff crystal
#

you can of course fully cancel but then you lose their old deal where you get to keep all games of the month instead of picking all but 2

#

you also don't get the extra -20% from humble store anymore unless you have active choice sub

#

I mean one you paid for that month

#

in past they gave -20 even if you paused

median wraith
#

you choose the games to keep?

or they give it like a tier?

also cost the double than what used to cost on my end

Implying UE5 is just Nanite and Lumen

#

Easy to dismiss that Fortnite uses UE5 by now, and the game still expected by Epic to run on average student potato computers

tulip orbit
#

I think there's some scalability to nanite anyways for lower machines, if the meshes are set up correctly. Not sure about lumen tho

tulip orbit
#

or ppl with low end machines could just suck it up, stop whining, and save up for a new machine

#

omg, my 10 year old machine cant play the latest games! oh no! I guess I'll bitch about it online!

#

to be fair tho, most people are pretty broke cause the economy is tanking

celest musk
#

is UE5 really that demanding?

#

i could imagine that nanite is pretty much cpu/bandwidth bound

tulip orbit
#

I havent tried it, but If that ue5 demo is anything like the Kite demo, it probably pushes machines pretty hard, but those epic demos are generally meant to show off features, not be optimized to run on lots of machines like a game would

celest musk
#

which demo? ancient of the valley?

tulip orbit

yeah

that demo ran on an >1 year old UE5 pre-pre-alpha build

#

what channel do i go to if i want some gameplay concepts advice? much appreciated

verbal junco
#

this one I guess. the design channel is no more ๐Ÿ˜”

tranquil hornet
#

ah alright rip

#

so first of all, I'm a DAE student in Belgium, and this semester we got BP scripting as a class, and we have to make a game from scratch

#

so im quite confused what to do gameplay wise. The main implementation is there, everything works, I just dont know what to focus my gameplay around as my current focus is quite shit
so my game is focusses around you being a very shitty driver for a moving company and basically trying to deliver the moving boxes from one house to another as fast/as safe as possible, with wonky driving, obstacles etc in the way
so i sent this to my teachers, to no avail (prob bc its during the holidays, understandable)

#

asked a friend and they came up with quite a neat concept as well

#

I really dont know what to do now and where to go from here. Some feedback on the concepts in the screenshots would be much appreciated ๐Ÿ™‚ (which ones best, why, how to improve it etc)

last matrix
tranquil hornet
#

All the bp's are already in place btw, as well are all the assets. So its basically changing up some bp's and maybe adding smth

verbal junco
#

it didn't really serve a purpose in the greater scope of UE

#

and people constantly mistook it for another art channel

last matrix
verbal junco
#

well people think "character design" is a thing for instance

#

which it may well be, just not in the industry

design as in, what a character artist does

last matrix
tranquil hornet
verbal junco
#

well if it's got level design... #level-design. otherwise I'd say maybe #work-in-progress or here

tranquil hornet
#

i mean, its not rlly level design is it, my level is just 2 simple street blocks for now ๐Ÿ˜‚

verbal junco
#

so by process of elimination

with obstacles on the way making it harder to keep the boxes actually on the truck

no. You pickup at one location, drive to delivery location, to then get a new pickup location assigned from there, from where it all repeats

verbal junco
#

sounds fun. I'm sure people who work as movers every day want to come home and playing a moving simulator ๐Ÿ˜‰

#

or at least, that's how I figure the sales numbers for agricultural simulator work

tranquil hornet
last matrix
tranquil hornet
#

I mean, idk. Ive been playtesting it about a thousand times now so kinda gets a bit boring ngl

#

the obstacles are meant to make it interesting

fun is a loaded term

If the challenge or interaction is starting to dull then theres something unsatisfying about the core, is the driving of the vehicle straight forward? Any inherent challenges like it handles like a boat or something? Seems ripe for some physics fun

tranquil hornet

#

I mean even the desert bus garnered attention even if it's 8 hours of continuously straight driving

last matrix
verbal junco
#

I don't think there's a good answer to the question either how

last matrix
tranquil hornet
#

or 1 minute or so

#

could enlarge it ofc. The house it picks is completely rng so could be really close as well

verbal junco
#

release it on mobile, make it intentionally slow the add micro purchases for boosters that make the game normal speed

#

problem solved

#

anyway it sounds like this is a learning attempt more than it is a full game. so perhaps it's time to just release it and start on something new?

last matrix
tranquil hornet
last matrix
#

Curvy roads or just straight?

tranquil hornet
#

layout isnt finished at all, its just 2 blocks as of now to not make testing too long

#

straight, with the occasional t and cross sections. Speed bumps everywhere as well

last matrix
#

Then to CEs earlier point it sounds like the weakest area is the level design

tranquil hornet
#

I mean, I get that and that will be adressed. What i currently dont know is as i stated above what the goal of the game should be

#

aka what it should be focussed around

last matrix
#

But u have that

#

You work for a moving company

#

If you mean player motivation for short term goals, then from your playtests its the things youd like to have to improve the task without the obvious literal improvements. For example a burst of NOS rather than a general speed up.

tranquil hornet

I do, just how its implemented rn i dont like, and idk how to change it for the better. As of now, it counts up with a timer, which in the end when a deliver is done deducts the points gained by the amount of boxes delivered. Since the picking of pickup and dropoff location is completely rng this could either be very close or very far apart, kinda making the points you get in the end completely rng

#

idk, im just a rookie at ue4 and gamedev in general at this point so maybe im just tackling this incorrectly

#

thnx for the advice though!

#

honestly just finish building it and releasing it

#

if it's your first or an early project, use the reflections you got from it as a springboard for your next project

#

then bury it

Fun in game is not inherent (usually) and its the designers responsibility to find it or something like it. Getting bored of playing the same thing could just be that youve played it too much. Get play testers if you can.

fun is a loaded term

tranquil hornet
#

alright, cheers. I'll just finish up whatever concept i have now, hand it out to some friends and see from there

verbal junco
#

it's hard to define and it's silly to use as a metric

tranquil hornet
#

thnx for the advice and a happy new year to you both ๐Ÿ™‚

Dont really care if it is loaded. The developer making the game should find it fun to them to retain motivation. Different story if your working for a company.

verbal junco
#

yeah but you can't really use fun as a way to measure something, so it's meaningless

tranquil hornet
#

thats deeo

#

Well they sound bored

#

So the engagement of the game isnt strong enough

#

Ive been working on a personal game for the last year and a half and i still have fun in it

#

I still get surprised by what the ai does and i get excited when i get a good drop

To me its the level design (not a surpise really)

#

Its the usual barrier of the designer to think of something that makes a game... a game, a fun one, based on the factors of the game.

#

Played plenty of platformers and rpgs that are not fun

#

It is taste

#

Cant be fun for everyone, typically, but the maker should find it fun

This sounds similar to that one old game about newspaper delivery boy ๐Ÿค” forgot what it's called

#

(not that it's bad or anything, the gameplay could have some fresher twist)

Its paper boy

Yes, that was it, Paper Boy

# last matrix It is taste

exactly why you wouldn't want to use it as a metric. if you're making a game for yourself and you think it's fun that's fine if it's just for yourself. but if you're doing something commercial you definitely have to think differently IMO

#

I was thinking a little more of crazy taxi

verbal junco
#

the point is to move away from the term so that when you're measuring engagement you're measuring against something tangible

#

and I think that benefits hobbyists as much as it does professionals

last matrix
#

Might be more constructive to suggest what those are and the methods, than to downplay without a supplement

verbal junco
#

there aren't any methods per se, it's just down to the context and working with what you have. if you have a mechanical interaction, you can check how long that should take. if you have an encounter, you can try and break down what is interesting about it and what isn't etc.

#

but really, just foregoing the word "fun" and see how you can describe something in other, tangible, constructive, terms is the way to go

last matrix
#

Interesting sounds just as loaded

I'm the only one as technical artist that see awful the fact Epic did 1 script style for animations, other for AI, other for FX, a new one now for audio, and then you have BPs ?

my point wasn't that I have a complete overview over a manual for design either. it's more of trying to put people into the mindset of thinking about things

nothing wrong with starting a discussion

ok I did not read this room correctly

verbal junco
#

not everything can be explained to the point of a manual

#

I dunno dude your full of contradictions

verbal junco
#

but yeah you can always post up "requires a sense of childhood" as a requirement for your game as it releases

#

I still dont see you providing insight only downplaying

verbal junco
#

feel free to not listen then

#

I tried to give you an explanation, but if you don't want to accept it I can't really do that much more

Well I'm pretty proud ive done game development every day for the whole month of December

#

I've never been this disciplined about anything

#

Good for you

#

I've been doing the same thing more or less. But getting stuck on how to do something XD

#

And the thing you're stuck on is something that you yourself has to solve

I'm stuck on not knowing what to do next. ended up refactoring my base blueprint, which required fixing a LOT of references
