Id devolver and EPIC

[unreal cedar]

*croteam

[pure hound]

but obviously the most epic is in the name 😄

[verbal junco]

classic doom was overrated, change my mind

[pure hound]

oh sorry yeah croteam not devolver thats the publisher

[unreal cedar]

devolver owns them (now) and publishes, but croteam is the actual studio that makes serious sam.

[quasi mantle]

Not going to argue there, but the modding scene is strong.

Somehow Classic Doom become the gold standard of moddable games, even when id didn't release official modding tool until source code release in '98

[pure hound]

god damn ue2004s music is godtier 😄

i remember sometimes was just sitting around listening to the music 😄

[quasi mantle]

I guess it uses its own engine might help

I kept thinking about planning for mod/UGC support for my game, which uses UE4, but at the same time I don't want to go through the hassle modifying Unreal Editor to be the mod kit

Though at the same time I've seen amazing model swaps for Final Fantasy VII Remake on PC, and it seems they're using vanilla UE4.18.3

[pure hound]

thinking just the same

idk how much of a modification needed for it

[quasi mantle]

I guess I have to get in touch with the underground modding scene and ask on their workflow and what they expect for moddable UE4 games even without the editor

[pure hound]

but like

cant the vanilla editor be even used for it?

[verbal junco]

why even bother before you have a fanbase

[pure hound]

i think you don't necessary have to modify the editor

i read it somewhere

there is a ugc sample plugin

[unreal cedar]

You don't have to modify the editor whatsoever.

[pure hound]

for real tho, unreal engine best game ever 😄

spending more time in it than any game

should need a counter ngl xD

time played xD

ok i say then "best entartainment" if it sounds better for you 😄 the doubters up there 😄

[verbal junco]

there's no point in glorifying an engine

[pure hound]

not glorifying it

just saying i enjoy fooling about in it and doing it more than games recently

[verbal junco]

not glorifying it

maybe im bad in it 😄

[unreal cedar]

Welcome to every major competitive game.

[quasi mantle]

Unreal Engine best "game"?

[unreal cedar]

CS:GO, Valorant, League, Dota, etc

[deep copper]

the point of some games is to make you feel special

[verbal junco]

games... toxic? naaah

[oblique cloak]

valorant takes it to the next level tho... its a weird kid of toxic kids.

[unreal cedar]

It really doesn't

It's the same shit with all the others.

[quasi mantle]

What about Fortnite?

[unreal cedar]

You're just getting an unlucky streak if you're seeing more.

[verbal junco]

#career-toxic

[quasi mantle]

||At least I'm lucky in Asian servers||

[deep copper]

if you can't beat em, join em!

[oblique cloak]

naw just uninstalled. not dealing with the kids in this game. you miss a shot, you hear it for 10 rounds.

[quasi mantle]

slap

[verbal junco]

it's why I play fighting games instead. if people are toxic, they just look weak

[unreal cedar]

*team-based competitive games bring out the worst of random internet strangers, you've just gotta have thick skin or only play with friends.

Or avoid them.

[oblique cloak]

cs is worse, straight hard r's left and right xD

[verbal junco]

lmao I thought it was so perfectly typical

#gitgudscrub

[deep copper]

this makes these game is really bad, why do people play it ?

seem*

[quasi mantle]

CSGO is kinda bad in Asian servers, though to be fair I was a F2P player, which Valve thought making CSGO free is a huge mistake

Valve learned their lesson

[broken sigil]

Rocket league might take the crown as the most toxic game I played (when you get to higher ranks) but Apex isn't far behind either
Tbf a bit of toxicity is a part of the "fun"... as long as some people don't take it too far

[pure hound]

tho im so sad unreal got discontinued 😦

[unreal cedar]

Nice Shot!

[timber viper]

Halo and R6 is less toxic than other

[unreal cedar]

Nice Shot!

[verbal junco]

I don't speak russian, I can only imagine it to be "something something cyka blyat"

[broken sigil]

https://tenor.com/view/pbg-peanutbuttergamer-what-a-save-austin-hargrave-gif-18368602

[oblique cloak]

people play games because they see there favorite streamer hit a rank higher than there's. then they strive to reach a higher rank, trying to make them selvs feel better.

[unreal cedar]

RUSH B

GO GO GO

[verbal junco]

but like, spammed 4 times

[oblique cloak]

i gave up on apex, to many agents... season 1 -2 was absolutely perfect 😦

[timber viper]

Seeing a lot of Russians in CSGO is a sign of you are not in a good rank

After a point they dont show up or if they show up they are nice

[verbal junco]

I dunno, for me people claiming "mid" prepick in dota takes the cake

[unreal cedar]

lol the salt in MOBA queues around lane picks

[timber viper]

R6 is the best ❤️

[verbal junco]

suddenly, 3 people mid

[quasi mantle]

Remember

[quasi mantle]

I haven't played R6S at all tbh

[oblique cloak]

another game that ruined there game with 900+ agents 😦 first few seasons where absolutely amazing.

[timber viper]

You see bad playing people a lot but rarely toxic people

[verbal junco]

a friend of mine said it would be worth the grind to get to level 20. so I endured until then. then I realized that was the game. no thanks

[broken sigil]

I played it at the start when it came out, skipped a few seasons and came back like a year later

Don't play ranked if you wanna stay sane and actually have fun lol
Trying to get to Master each split but it's basically impossible with random teammates, stuck in D4/3

[quasi mantle]

well, I guess the game being paid helped the less toxic people

[deep copper]

is this why pure multi player gamers are so quick to jump to insults? it's a part of that community's behaviour?

[timber viper]

I brought the game for 1€

[verbal junco]

again fighting games win out. if people are toxic, they rage quit on you = you win

[oblique cloak]

blues got better aim than most!!! are you a aim assister? or kb/m? thats amazing tho, d3/4 is a great rank!

[quasi mantle]

Well, competitive team based games tend to have that more

Unlike fighting games, which is PvP.

It's like a manly fight

[timber viper]

Is it normal whenever I see 😔 CE comes to my mind now lol

[deep copper]

i learned to use this from CE

[verbal junco]

gamers ruined games

[timber viper]

[deep copper]

it's such a nice passionate kinda sad emote

[quasi mantle]

[broken sigil]

kb/m 😅

[oblique cloak]

idk i kind of miss MW2 trash talk days those lobbys where epic.

[verbal junco]

I would use this emoji instead if I had it 😂

[oblique cloak]

[quasi mantle]

Now it's the time to sell your soul to Discord Nitro scams

[deep copper]

scam? but eren got it...

[verbal junco]

I'm too much of a punk fr that

[quasi mantle]

That's the joke (and the infuriating part with Discord Nitro system as a whole)

[timber viper]

easy, just click the link i'll send now coughs blood

[deep copper]

jk jk i get the implication

[timber viper]

also dont forget to close your AV ^^

[oblique cloak]

I just got invited to play the cycle frontier, is it any good?

[deep copper]

if it's competitive multi no

[timber viper]

I played it when it first came out

[quasi mantle]

Close the AV so that my patent trojan Nitro injector shipped with it works

[timber viper]

Wasnt bad, kinda boring over the time

[oblique cloak]

meh

[verbal junco]

come play fighting games instead

[timber viper]

I was good at MK9 & MK11

I do take competitive games pretty seriously 😅
When I used to play FN me and a friend almost qualified for world cup, we were very close to qualifying

This is from today's match lol

[oblique cloak]

I cant link my xbox account to my apex account 😦 dang.... i had like 40,000 credits for stuff...

[timber viper]

I was playing at playstation cafes so I dont have a rank

that's not what you use against fire

Well, aside from being lab rat for my malware experimentation that is

[oblique cloak]

wow 12 kills is very impressive with kb/m in that higher quality lobby. Are you low sens? high sens? I hate cross play so much when it comes down to compet these days, but if you just queue with kb/m you get ALL THE CHEATERS!

[deep copper]

if the situation has enough heat, use it

[quasi mantle]

Condoms are fireproof, right?

[deep copper]

firefighters use it

probably

[verbal junco]

yeah firefighters use giant condoms to enter burning buildings

[broken sigil]

I'm on 800dpi and 1.8 in game so I would say it's on the higher end
Hard surface mouse pad tho so it feels really quick

There are a lot of cheaters

[verbal junco]

woah man I don't speak gamer lingo

[deep copper]

exactly, but it's still not enough so it destroys itself and waters everything

if that makes sensw

[verbal junco]

it makes sensw, but it doesn't make sense

is that the next version up from sensw

[deep copper]

then sensy and sensz

[quasi mantle]

You guys using FQuat??

[broken sigil]

No they are using FThis and FThat

[verbal junco]

I would have gone for a senshomogenouscoordinate but fair

[deep copper]

sensible enough

[verbal junco]

I thought it was illegal

[verbal junco]

[verbal junco]

hey now don't use my words against me

THAT's illegal

I already gave you BSD-3-Clause, you ungrateful bastard.

[unreal cedar]

I'm not sure what RMS has to do with trusting the license

[quasi mantle]

Though I'm not sure if AGPL 3 is compatible with BSD-3

Good uhh

morning?

[verbal junco]

good lord

[zinc matrix]

good morning to those who live in the civilised world

[quasi mantle]

Good grief

[zinc matrix]

for the majority of the world's population it would be morning no?

[quasi mantle]

For the Far East and Australia, yeah

[verbal junco]

about heif

[zinc matrix]

india, china, bangladesh etc.

indonesia

[verbal junco]

it's morning in the UK

technically

[zinc matrix]

I guess

But if 2AM is morning, by that logic 2PM is night

[verbal junco]

https://tenor.com/view/thonk-thinking-sun-thonk-sun-thinking-sun-gif-14999983

how are you still awake

or are you just here for the daily 4:20 moment

Might wait a few more weeks for April 20th

[verbal junco]

same, I'd like to finish this whisky

nah just kidding

[zinc matrix]

do finns stay awake by copious amounts of coffee + Säkkijärven polkka on repeat?

[verbal junco]

(the whisky was finished last night)

[verbal junco]

I've heard they sustain themselves on lakkopiip

[unreal cedar]

that's what I tell myself every night

[quasi mantle]

Or that odd chemical candy that I keep forgetting the name

[verbal junco]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5fQZhv0poU

finnish language sounds magical

but it's your heritage!

to enjoy the finest lakupiipu

did you become a smoker?

[quasi mantle]

Speaking of teaching kids how to smoke
Reminds me of one of those toys that looked like smoking pipe, and can actually omit smoke. I don't know the chemicals, and it seems like it vanished from the market (for good)

Though I've already seen middle schoolers smoke regularly, so

[verbal junco]

😔

[quasi mantle]

I quit smoking because I got dizzy for days when smoking unfiltered cigarettes lol

[subtle hatch]

Indonesian loves their tobacco

[quasi mantle]

Yeah, lots of older people here are heavy smokers.

[verbal junco]

I'd say it matters on the general country laws as well

I grew up in a country that didn't allow smoking in general

[subtle hatch]

No health regulations there

[quasi mantle]

Locally you can get cigarettes as easy as buying candies.

[verbal junco]

I was shocked when I moved to germany about how many people smoked

[subtle hatch]

Yes $1 a pack think

In my country it cost like 40$

Because of excise

[zinc matrix]

nicotine pouches can save you, but it's the same

you get a buzz and feel weird

without them you feel even more weirder

crave them like a mf

[quasi mantle]

Personally I'd go with vaping, because it's less dizzy inducing

But at the same time vaping was intended for smokers' stop gap...

[verbal junco]

or - hear me out here, I know it's crazy - not having any kind of inhalatory drug

[subtle hatch]

What's vaping like in Indonesia @quasi mantle

[quasi mantle]

Nothing special, just less accessible than buying cigarettes

[verbal junco]

it's less about the war on drugs outside than it is the need for drugs on the inside 😔

[quasi mantle]

Ironically vaping was (and still is) more costly than smoking cigarettes

[unreal ether]

In the UK smoking is a very expensive habit unless your source your tobacco through nefarious means

The tax on cigarettes is so high

[subtle hatch]

My country had banned vaping for a bit

[quasi mantle]

I guess it's because smoking cigarettes doesn't involve electronic parts, all you need is a pack of cigarettes and a match.

[subtle hatch]

Because my government wants to collect more money from smokers so it's not about health

[verbal junco]

gasoline is pricey too though, so that lighter is gonna be a buck extra

[quasi mantle]

Nah, lighters are pretty cheap here

[subtle hatch]

One of my parents at one point used to work for Phillip Morris

[quasi mantle]

$1 can get you around a half of cheap lighters (not Zippo ones)

[verbal junco]

that sounds expensive for indonesia

but I don't know prices

[celest musk]

saw this gem today

[quasi mantle]

Sorry, I meant half a dozen

[unreal cedar]

they're not wrong

[celest musk]

also cigarettes in germany are more like $6 for a pack of 20 or something

[unreal ether]

UK government came up with a grand idea to discourage smoking.... make all the packets grey, with little colour

[quasi mantle]

And they barely deter smokers.

[unreal ether]

Cigarettes in england can easily be £13.50 for a pack

[verbal junco]

too cheap

[quasi mantle]

I think it's safe to say the nasty pics are just dismissed as decorative piece

Barely any effort to artificially raise the price

[verbal junco]

I heard in the US it's like $20 for a pack

that sounded correct to me

[celest musk]

that sounds more like an australian thing to me

they have really high taxes on some things

alcohol, too iirc

[verbal junco]

well to be fair some states have the same tax in the US

[quasi mantle]

One exception might be rationalising caffeine addiction

[verbal junco]

I can easily imagine california having high tax on tobacco

[celest musk]

energy drinks are also high taxed in aus

[quasi mantle]

I think some people classified caffeine as drug substance

[verbal junco]

I had a friend being legit addicted to caffeine. it's not pretty

[celest musk]

$28.56 for a pack of 20 in australia 😄

beat that

[quasi mantle]

I drank a lot of espresso when I'm still working for event organiser company, considering constant crunch work I had. I guess that gave me caffeine addiction and sleep deprivations.

[verbal junco]

how did you know that you were addicted?

[quasi mantle]

I don't really know, just guessing.

[verbal junco]

then it's probably not addiction

[quasi mantle]

though I do drink coffee more since then

[celest musk]

usually you get headaches when going cold turkey 😄

[verbal junco]

if you can stop without actually feeling physical symptoms

[quasi mantle]

The day I didn't drink any coffee, I would get sleepy more and tend to lose focus

[verbal junco]

that's normal

[celest musk]

but i'm also addicted to caffeine

[verbal junco]

if you were addicted you'd get headaches and cravings

[celest musk]

cravings not that much (in my experience)

[quasi mantle]

Usually headaches only come when I can't sleep at night, but tbf that doesn't saying much

[verbal junco]

I drink coffee every day, but I've always been trying to moderate it. I do 2 cups at most

[celest musk]

https://tenor.com/view/breakfast-of-champions-gif-21066898

[verbal junco]

and it hurts me on another level

because I love coffee

but I've switched to decaff for after 2 cups

and it works

even if decaff kind of sucks

[quasi mantle]

As in those small cups, right?

[verbal junco]

normal size. but probably equivalent of 2 espressos

tea rubs me the wrong way

[quasi mantle]

Then I get into the full size mug territory, but twice per day

[celest musk]

i dont know, just because it's tea doesn't mean that its better

[verbal junco]

the best I can do is a matcha latte from starbucks, but I have those once in a blue moon

how much do you drink?

probably 1:10 or 1:8 is right

no milk or sugar though

I like it the color of void

https://tenor.com/view/ew-yuck-gif-13390919

just black

[celest musk]

it's the best time

[verbal junco]

it's the best

full flavor

[celest musk]

7am no one is in the mood for shopping

so stores are kinda empty

[verbal junco]

people go to shops still?

I haven't been outside my apartment for months

[quasi mantle]

Milk? Go raw or go home (literally)

[verbal junco]

like physically, you carry it?!

[quasi mantle]

Often times coffee milk isn't going to cut it for me

Even though I enjoy coffee milk more, just that the effect isn't as strong as black coffee.

[celest musk]

your cream management sucks apparently

[verbal junco]

ok I'll stop

[quasi mantle]

Looks like blue bird alumni

[verbal junco]

I had someone block me the other day for saying they need QA to solve a testing issue

that was in #ue4-general

I guess that might be toxic

[stone river]

Hi, everyone! I was wondering - would it be OK to ask here about trouble I'm having running a game which was built with UE? I'm a technical user myself (programmer by trade), so I've been digging through the docs and playing with settings for a while now, but I feel a bit stuck and need a nudge in the right direction by someone who knows UE well.

[quasi mantle]

#ue4-general and state your issues right away

[stone river]

Aye, aye, captain! 🙂

[zinc matrix]

I've ran into a case of "it works perfectly but I have no bloody idea how"

[verbal junco]

"I HAVE TO SPEND MONEY FOR THE SOLUTION? NO THANKS"

[unreal cedar]

I mean, they specifically asked about documentation for automated testing and you responded with a snarky comment unrelated to the solution.

Jokes are fun and all but that doesn't excuse being a dick to someone who had a simple question.

[verbal junco]

I didn't see the automated part of that

[unreal cedar]

I can't help you there.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[verbal junco]

but equally if they were unhappy they could have restated that

[quasi mantle]

You mean this?
#ue4-general message

[cursive crypt]

This is #lounge sir

[unreal cedar]

The conversation being discussed isn't from lounge.

[cursive crypt]

But yeah, respect

Nah, I am not interested then. Where cookie?

[quasi mantle]

I dunno, I felt like that convo just ends in limbo, no dramas

[quasi mantle]

I tried to decline it

They kept taking my cookies

[unreal cedar]

tfw you bake cookies and cook bacon

[quasi mantle]

Is this suitable for sacrifice to websites?

They keep asking me cookies and taking them even if I reject it

[cursive crypt]

Looks like a nitro link

[quasi mantle]

Huh, I'd expect something like this to be open source.
I guess they don't want the big guys to exactly remedy the extension

[verbal junco]

@unreal cedar also saw they asked for ways to have QA be more efficient, so it doesn't seem out of line what I said?

[unreal cedar]

They mentioned automated testing specifically in that comment too.

[verbal junco]

yes, as a follow up

[unreal cedar]

You can nitpick how they phrased things but it's pretty clear what they were asking. Blocking seems like a bit of an overreaction but making fun of them/talking about the convo behind their back because you ignored their actual question doesn't seem right to me.

[verbal junco]

I dunno, I don't feel I was in the wrong there, especially reading the comment back. automated testing or no.

[junior dirge]

👋

[long crane]

I have a question

when your learning unreal you should learn both blueprints and the normal c++ coding right?

or should you only learn one

over the other

[unreal cedar]

depends on your goal

[long crane]

wdym?

[unreal cedar]

if you're primarily an artist or designer, C++ might not matter that much.

If you're learning from the perspective of a programmer/engineer, then you probably want to know both.

[long crane]

ahh ok thanks

[junior dirge]

I think I'm going to learn both, hopefully knowing a bit of c# will help learning c++

[long crane]

I learned a bit of c# and their pretty different

in a lot of ways

but

[junior dirge]

that's fine I can start from scratch

[unreal cedar]

They are, but already understanding the basics of programming does help quite a bit.

[long crane]

they are also simmilar in a lot of ways

[unreal cedar]

And syntax-wise C++/C# are at least very similar.

Even if language features are completely different.

[long crane]

like the if statements, switch statements, do while loop etc are all the same

but theres no console.readkey or console.writeline

and you put everything in an integer called main

[unreal cedar]

Ehhh those are very superficial differences. And C# also has a main method that can optionally return an int.

The biggest difference is that C++ has you managing memory manually.

[long crane]

I dont know a ton about c# or evern c++ for that matter but im learning

[junior dirge]

yeah I want to avoid memory leaks

[unreal cedar]

I recommend learning C++ separately from unreal. The language is very complicated and that's before having to learn it + all the stuff Unreal piles on top.

[junior dirge]

that's the plan so far

[quasi mantle]

I do learn C++ basics prior to using Unreal Engine (or even Unity), so after 2 years of just BP, I'm not really lost with UE C++ basics

[verbal junco]

UE4 C#

[junior dirge]

haha

[unreal cedar]

please can we get intercal support in unreal

[quasi mantle]

It would be nice if there's a way to sideload C# programs without having it compiled into DLL separately 😳

(as in compiling C# programs together with compiling Unreal C++ projects, not compiling it into DLL before putting it into Unreal)

[bronze axle]

just that it's a component that you attach

If only there's Quinn doing pole dances 😏

(the female UE mannequin)

[zinc matrix]

Quinn?

Ah gotya

Well that can be aranged

I think there is a sexy pole dance anim on Mixamo

[quasi mantle]

Nah, I'll do some study and make it myself

[zinc matrix]

🤔 sounds like you need some assistance, is there grouo discount on stripclubs?

[dark sequoia]

i need halp too, halp

also, lol Quinn

I hate when I get stuck on one single issue within something (for any type of project/activity) which causes everything to be put on hold until I resolve it, lol... always seems to happen to me :/

[quasi mantle]

I usually just move on to another issue until I tackle it, and go back to the harder issue

[dark sequoia]

that makes sense, although many times its after I had already done that and then I cycle back to get stuck again regardless

which im sorta at that point right now with the model, I think

[deep copper]

i just realised, manny and quinn make mannequin

🤯

[dark sequoia]

either that or sometimes (regarding unrelated stuff in the past) it actually is something thats required to progress. especially happens for blueprint/scripting related stuff, cause of how things are linked together lol

[soft night]

the manne and quinn the most mannequinn

[quasi mantle]

Manne sounds like a Nordic name IMO

[deep copper]

watch atleast 1 random unrelated tut daily, then by the time you get back you might see stuff from a different perspective, though random ue tuts are generally bad so idk how else you will take in unrelated info which can later come in handy

[quasi mantle]

Also this weekend I do more C++ than usual
That's a record

[soft night]

!8ball you have quin inside you?

[turbid spindle]

@soft night, :8ball: My sources say no.

[deep copper]

!8ball are you inside quin?

[turbid spindle]

@deep copper, :8ball: Better not tell you now.

[quasi mantle]

Also surprisingly my C++ codes worked first time

[soft night]

Makoto well it is nordic name for some folks for sure

[deep copper]

scary experience

[dark sequoia]

where did the Quinn name come from anyway? cause I have never even heard that until I had joined this Discord lol

oh wait I just now got it...

its because Mannequin lol...

🙃

[deep copper]

yes!

they are 1 single entity that's split up!

[soft night]

https://tenor.com/view/harleyquinn-happy-yay-excited-gif-5050002

[deep copper]

how metaphorical, deep and romantic or something

[deep copper]

i have actually heard of people with that name

[quasi mantle]

Harley Quinn

[deep copper]

as first name too

i believe they were from the Netherlands

[dark sequoia]

Quinn sounds like the name of someone who blogs on Tumblr all day 🙃

[deep copper]

atleast they are dedicated

to something

[quasi mantle]

Why am I laughing so hard on this lmao

[foggy path]

She probably would tho

[dark sequoia]

lulz

[zinc matrix]

!8ball is it possible to be as intelligent as you?

[turbid spindle]

@zinc matrix, :8ball: It is decidedly so.

[zinc matrix]

You are a hag in a wormhole. Armed only with a pie and your wits, you must save yourself.

[deep copper]

feathery Humpty Dumpty

[deep copper]

you have food and a place to stay, + you are intelligent, easy game

[celest musk]

A game where the world is dominated by chimeras, and the last hope for humanity is a ufologist with a newspaper.

😄

that story could work in a movie, too

[dark sequoia]

a game where the world is dominated by normies

o wait

[pearl elk]

each normie has its own nft

[dark sequoia]

lol

@deep copper wanna see something funnay?

[deep copper]

sure!

[pearl elk]

[dark sequoia]

@deep copper sus Mio, lol

[deep copper]

that's more like, scary and creepy than funny lol

if this pops up on my screen for 1 sec and goes away, i would be scared

keep this as a loading screen

[zinc matrix]

how long you take to make a character like this?

[deep copper]

2 years

[dark sequoia]

yah, lol... originally for MMD that is

[deep copper]

but it does way more stuff

[pearl elk]

4 score and 7 years

[dark sequoia]

but atm now been converting to UE4 format

[zinc matrix]

how long is too long for a asset?

i am freaking out

[dark sequoia]

depends on the usage, and how important it is to the individual

[quasi mantle]

Long enough that you missed a deadline

[zinc matrix]

i do not have a deadline

[pearl elk]

more than 2 weeks is too long

[zinc matrix]

i took 2 months on this one

all fruits have rigs but from a topdown view it seems so skin

then i started filling it more (left corner at the bottom)

but that feels taking way much more time

[pearl elk]

what is the fruit rigged with, explosive, razor blades?

[deep copper]

they look 😋

[zinc matrix]

i think at the end of year my game will turn into a Lutriq aeroponic garden visualization

instead of a proper game

🖲️

[deep copper]

as long as it's fun

[zinc matrix]

oh super...

i think i will need to cut my character legs and grabbers

so i do not have to animate 4 more bones

[deep copper]

sounds good

[dark sequoia]

i should also mention that my model took 2 years to create, but without any other prior experience/knowledge before I had started

so thats a factor too

[deep copper]

and you should also add it has many emotions and poses etc

[zinc matrix]

they look very polished tho

[dark sequoia]

yeah, a ton

also I should show a more proper pic heh

there ya go, a non-meme example :p

[zinc matrix]

being a katana fighter with such a big boobs must be a pain

[deep copper]

the belt helps probably

[dark sequoia]

the FOV makes it look bigger here, funny enough

[zinc matrix]

hm

[deep copper]

yeah the ue camera has quite the camera

lense

[zinc matrix]

maybe use it as equilibrium or stability volumes?

[dark sequoia]

she has a boob size slider anyway, so theres that. for reducing or increasing

[zinc matrix]

never thought as boobs weight as something like that actually

[dark sequoia]

lmao

[deep copper]

the sword must be equally heavy for this right

[zinc matrix]

or slower movements?

to match attack inertia with boobs one

as long it is sharp enough

[dark sequoia]

:3

[zinc matrix]

just imagine doing a 2 cm depth cut of a length of a katana on someone?

i would start crying

[quasi mantle]

Take a look to the breasts just before you die
It's the last time you will

||ICYMI: lyrics of Metallica's For Whom The Bell Tolls||

[zinc matrix]

i am not fan of boobs

i would probably look at the sky or something

[quasi mantle]

That's just the original lyrics

[deep copper]

well if they are big enough, there won't be a sky

[zinc matrix]

actually i would transmute into a wooden log

then touch her back (by teletransporting into her back) and charm her

[pearl elk]

log boobs are the best

[zinc matrix]

then we would do game dev. the rest of the day

[zinc matrix]

It can be changed easily, the fov

ah and we would cut the katana into a smaller blade

fruits and vegetables are not that big on Earth

[deep copper]

if you cut katana you have more katana to cut from

[deep copper]

why a wooden log tho

[zinc matrix]

that what i seem when i played Naruto on Xbox

i hated that game

everytime me and other 2 friends smoked weed we played that

[pearl elk]

Burrito > Naruto

[zinc matrix]

i lost 98% of all the matches

[deep copper]

unique experience i would say

[zinc matrix]

i just played because one of the guys liked the bit

fighting games are so boring

for the noobies, i mean

[deep copper]

they probably did because they won

[deep copper]

yup, if you don't win, you lose incentive

[zinc matrix]

the problem is when you do not know how to play and loose it everytime

i thknk only after some weeks playing that thing i started learning the mechanics

and very rarely i would enter in a state of trance that lead me to win

[deep copper]

well you were drugged, no way you can figure it out

[zinc matrix]

but that happened like minus than 5 times

[deep copper]

not bad still

[zinc matrix]

and i had fun pricking a friend using Noob on Mortal Kombat

[deep copper]

atleast you enjoyed something i guess?

[zinc matrix]

i begged them to play something like Castle Crashers or any other co-op

[deep copper]

they didn't?

[zinc matrix]

but our sessions did not last too long

[deep copper]

were those your earlier friends you left or later ones with whom you went on mountains?

[zinc matrix]

i did not had any friend on a mountain with me

or they are too afraid of the routes

or they are too lazy

[deep copper]

well it's not for everyone so makes sense i suppose

[zinc matrix]

i guess so

once we decided to go to a near park by bicycle

one of the guys almost fainted on a climb

we had to call its parents

because none taxi would accept a bicycle

[deep copper]

that's kinda troublesome

[zinc matrix]

it was fun

we were super high

and inside the city

[deep copper]

high on the mountain or

[zinc matrix]

mind

[deep copper]

right right

wait is that why one fainted?

[cursive crypt]

https://tenor.com/view/ramen-gif-24407348

f, I'm hungry

[deep copper]

hi hungry i am me

[zinc matrix]

he did not, but stopped cycling and lied on the floor

saying that he could not go any further

and that we should call a cab

[deep copper]

feels tired

[zinc matrix]

looked like a crying baby

[pearl elk]

hmm Naturo does look pretty tastey

[deep copper]

did you hug them?

[zinc matrix]

we are not the type of friends who hug each other

[cursive crypt]

ofc, it is. I think, I have even one of the instant things... Which is nice for when you are tired already.

You know, these can be eaten even dry, afaik.

[zinc matrix]

but anyway, i would not hug a sweat guy, lying on the asphalt

[cursive crypt]

Truly lazy.

[deep copper]

it seemed like a good opportunity ;^^

[cursive crypt]

Or maybe a nap first... 😪

[zinc matrix]

it would felt so weird

[deep copper]

you were high, so probably not

[zinc matrix]

idk you, but getting high on weed when you used to smoke is not a big deal

[deep copper]

i see, i have never used that before, but i imagine it's like getting drunk

[pearl elk]

I would but only if he had nice boobs

[zinc matrix]

still weird

[zinc matrix]

i think it is more introspective

[deep copper]

there's some added softness though, so good resting place

[pearl elk]

Would you give a guy a foot massage?

[deep copper]

give them massage with a foot or massage their foot?

[pearl elk]

so you've given this some thought 😛

[deep copper]

i have done both under circumstances

[pearl elk]

I hope they had nice boobs

or atleast a solid dad bod

[deep copper]

i didn't get a Chance to check 😢

[zinc matrix]

are you blind?

[deep copper]

not fully but kinda, was

[zinc matrix]

ah it was dark

[deep copper]

there's that too

but you can generally confirm during the day, however, clothes

and staring would get weird

[zinc matrix]

where you was?

i can use my eye to navigate maps on cities even on a strong trip of lsd

[deep copper]

that's nice, i get lost while sane so idk lol

i have heard people that drive/travel a lot generally have great mapping skills

[zinc matrix]

it is not rocket science

[deep copper]

i have seen drivers that can return back even if they have been in a maze like place once

it's crazy

[zinc matrix]

if you have a straight line pointing towards the destination and a compass built-in

maybe not the most efficient route

still..

[deep copper]

i suppose that's one way to not get lost

[verbal junco]

this looks ok but pho > ramen

[deep copper]

a face

[zinc matrix]

bad breakfast face

[verbal junco]

I still hold that pho is the best noodle soup

(but udon being the best noodle)

[cursive crypt]

https://tenor.com/view/hungry-cute-baby-gif-14458401

dst? Loseless audio?

[verbal junco]

I was wondering why I woke up 1 hour earlier

my mind is like a clock apparently

[deep copper]

to cook mushrooms maybe

[verbal junco]

does your country have ramen

[deep copper]

the ones you had to fix in the morning

[pearl elk]

I only cook mushrooms when its daylight savings

they grow better because of the extra hours of night you see

[deep copper]

🙅 no answering weird questions

[deep copper]

their mushrooms were going bad

[verbal junco]

it's not weird

[deep copper]

they said it may not survive the night

[verbal junco]

okay a better question: does your country have a noodle soup

[pearl elk]

too much of a fun guy

[cursive crypt]

Ok, no soup. Smoked mackerel it will be.

[deep copper]

i am not sure how much it narrows down anything, but doesn't every place now a days have it?

[verbal junco]

not as part of the national cuisine

france doesn't have a noodle soup in their cuisine

(but italy does)

[deep copper]

i am not sure what that means but i can eat noodles if i want

[verbal junco]

noodles are available ✅

and possibly, abundant

[cursive crypt]

They have onion soup tho 🧅 👃

[verbal junco]

yes but there is no noodle in that soup

[cursive crypt]

Put a baguette.

[verbal junco]

we are strictly talking about noodle soups

[deep copper]

that's sounds like some forensic literacy thing

i already forgot the exact word

[verbal junco]

out of curiosity: what's everyone's prospect here on buying a house?

or an apartment

or some degree of housing

[cursive crypt]

Not gonna happen 💰 💰

Prices now are even a bit higher than the "great crisis" ~2008

[verbal junco]

well yeah it dropped then it started rising

[tulip orbit]

i live in a giant bucket.

[verbal junco]

do you own your giant bucket

fair enough. but also, finland

[zinc matrix]

like a vehicle?

[cursive crypt]

If you have a "good salary", say a sw dev. You need on average 100 months to buy an average apartment of 80 sq/m.

100 salaries I mean.

[zinc matrix]

i would live happily on a vehicle

[tulip orbit]

no. I rent from the lady in the shoe

[verbal junco]

100 salaries would get me a decent apartment

[pearl elk]

I live in the scrub under a tarp

[verbal junco]

perhaps a small house

(assuming I didn't have expenses 😭)

[cursive crypt]

If you save 1/3 of your salary. That like... 25 years? Without the bank interest.

[verbal junco]

I can save about 50% of my salary comfortably

but it's still not enough

[deep copper]

weren't you moving next month

[verbal junco]

I am

this has nothing to do with that

[cursive crypt]

~17 years, w/o the interest. It is a tragedy. And I'm from 2nd world country.

That issue is getting global.

[verbal junco]

I think it would take me 1-2 years to get 10-15% equal to a down payment

assuming I started from 0

[cursive crypt]

I really wish you good luck. Many people don't realise how good is to have a generational wealth (i.e. their own home).

[verbal junco]

at this rate it's not looking up lol

[cursive crypt]

Yeah, I'm also from zero. Even from red. Middle-aged, it is basically my last train not to die on the street.

[verbal junco]

I have more money than before but money is now increasingly worthless

[cursive crypt]

Yeah... 😩

[zinc matrix]

wait

having a house plus what else?

a vehicle, a lot of clothes etc.

you can get down to some few square meters of space, 2 cookpots and 6 clothes

[cursive crypt]

You can move in the deep province, even cheaper. We are talking, I guess, for something more general, common? Like the current rent.

[pearl elk]

I have a 1m square of lawn I can use for my toilet

[zinc matrix]

you can fit all your needs in a 40 liter backpack

minus the bathroom

[cursive crypt]

Gotta use the ceiling too.

[cursive crypt]

If you are nomad? Or just young dude.

[zinc matrix]

that if you are smart enough you can get away with some tweak of plants roots absorbing the stuff

for the bathroom i mean

just would take some days of effort into digging a hole

[zinc matrix]

yeah! be young forever

and let the world be your oyster

[deep copper]

either of the options are so much work

[pearl elk]

I twerk over my plants to encourage growth

[deep copper]

and it works, they grow

[zinc matrix]

hurt it

poke with a katana some stems and leaves

no wait

that is just too much for a small house

why do you want plants? they waste water

[deep copper]

and space, + they die

[zinc matrix]

and if you are sentient enough, nutrients

you can weld metal plates and make a house too

[deep copper]

you can eat them in case of emergency though

[zinc matrix]

that would probably cut the need of having a lightning protection

[verbal junco]

the trick is

buy a house you can rent out that covers its own mortgage

[quasi mantle]

Yeah, just make one in Unreal BP
Instant 👌

[verbal junco]

then go live in a cheap country

like maybe... thailand

(thailand also has delicious food coincidentally)

[pearl elk]

katana plants are my favourite, bit bitey

[deep copper]

sounds good, hopefully works

[deep copper]

has a sharp taste and rich in iron

[cursive crypt]

This should be done in your 20s, most early 30s. If you want to have a family, it will be hard.

[zinc matrix]

or you can go to brazil and hug me

[deep copper]

buy house, rent it out, and just stay nomadic

[zinc matrix]

no, family is bad

[cursive crypt]

Brazil looks too criminal.

[zinc matrix]

i live in a safe place

plus i am very strong

[deep copper]

no wonder your place is safe

[cursive crypt]

Well, if you rely on your armor points...

[verbal junco]

well tbh I'm not sure if the whole family thing fits my lifestyle. work has forced me to move around a lot. now it's getting a bit better with the whole remote work thing, but still

[cursive crypt]

Depends...? I mean, how old you are? Know, sometimes opinions change years later 🙂

[zinc matrix]

no one can beat me in a medieval style tourney

[deep copper]

if your opinion doesn't changes after 30-38 it probably won't change

[zinc matrix]

me + a bicycle + stem of a broom

i do not know if i even need a helmet

although i have a cycling one

[deep copper]

isn't that way too strong?

and to think people still dared to steal your mushrooms

[zinc matrix]

that is why i am inviting CE

[cursive crypt]

I have some pretty good example of exactly a change in that period, lol.
Sometimes, even a split from long term relationship, triggers.

[verbal junco]

almost old enough to be a parent for people in here 😰

incidentally I'm still too immature to be a parent

[deep copper]

i will stay quiet

[zinc matrix]

plus men can have children way after (?) than 38 years old

[cursive crypt]

Well, you know yourself. I was sharing from my experience and view of the social circle around.

[deep copper]

so zomg has 3 accounts?

[cursive crypt]

lol, if you think finding a partner is so easy. Especially, if you are ~40 years old, lol.

[zinc matrix]

do not you think that?

if you have your life resolved, i think plenty of bits pop out of the blue

[verbal junco]

speak for yourself, I am a ||░||

[deep copper]

nearly all people in their 30s have a change in ideals, perhaps because they are ready to settle down or something idk

[cursive crypt]

Not at all. I know 2-3 good friends around 40... Have their own place, trying their luck. Maybe kinda poor. Naah, not happening.

[pearl elk]

I want someone to share my tarp and piece of lawn

[zinc matrix]

oh.. maybe they are not hanging around too much

i lost time the amount of old ladies at their 40s on EDM places were single

[verbal junco]

I think the whole thing of settling down in your 30s is a bit archaic and or traditional/conservative. especially considering the economical issues people face in their youth these days

[cursive crypt]

I have from both ends, the one is quite social, the other not so much.
EDM?

[zinc matrix]

electronic dance music

[cursive crypt]

Economical is good hint.

[deep copper]

there's lots of single ladies yeah, but idk if they are the right one at that age, i mean, both would have health issues in that time

[zinc matrix]

i think a pub can do it too

[pearl elk]

thats how it works, if you wanna get rich become an EDM DJ

[cursive crypt]

Aah... well, maybe it is specific to your place and culture. These are rare breed around.

[zinc matrix]

what do you mean?

i found one which was very wealth, 3 children older than me, looking for fun

[verbal junco]

anyway the games industry and settling down don't mix IMO

in my experience, really

[zinc matrix]

there is plenty of girls like that

principally in big cities

or mild big cities

[verbal junco]

the people who stay 20 years at one studio are outliers

and tbh, quickly become dinosaurs

[deep copper]

i mean, people at 40s need family , not fun or something

idk

[zinc matrix]

i think you are wrong

[deep copper]

i am not old enough to speak about 40s

[quasi mantle]

Depends.

I've seen some people staying single even in their 50s

[cursive crypt]

As I said, specific to your own place. Even me, who is into EDM barely know such free ladies, even less who are not into relationship and definitely none who are willing to start a family.

[deep copper]

if their ideals didn't change in the 30s, yes

[zinc matrix]

i have 2 on my family over 40s, single that from time to time are always posting photos of socials etc.

[verbal junco]

given that most people stay on average in a studio for the length of a project, everyone uproots every 3-5 years

[zinc matrix]

oh yeah, they are not frequent as adolescents or mild adults on places like that... still, you can find, it is not like it is a impossible quest that will take you 15 years

have you used Tinder?

[quasi mantle]

Personally I'm just let things fold out.
If I somehow get married in my 30s, even with my ideals that some would deem ridiculous, then I'll take it.
If not, and I stayed single in my 50s, then so be it.

[pearl elk]

imagine having kids which use tinder

[quasi mantle]

I'm against forced marriage.

[cursive crypt]

Let's just conclude that you will have a better luck with something else. Our culture and place are very different as it seems.

[pearl elk]

or worse, kids on tiktok 😛

[zinc matrix]

that is the mindset to find someone at some point; biology leads us to this type of thing

[deep copper]

marriages hardly work out anyway now a days

let alone forced

[zinc matrix]

it is a quick of a second meeting someone like minded

and let it be

[verbal junco]

my problem is that I've grown accustomed to being single now, after my last relationship

[cursive crypt]

Who hasn't? lmao. And not only.

[quasi mantle]

I think it's the same with me, given how badly my last relationship ended up.

[verbal junco]

mine ended amicably but still

I just don't need to share my life with anyone

[zinc matrix]

and you did not managed to find someone?

[quasi mantle]

I don't use Tinder at all lmao

[zinc matrix]

go to GDC

ask hot ladies if they want to drink

water

[pearl elk]

why would I want to date a game dev eeww 😛

[quasi mantle]

In my case, my ex turned out to be a serial manipulator, and I'm just lucky that I didn't get further. But holy shit the PTSD still last to this day

[quasi mantle]

That's what she said

[deep glen]

<_<

[pearl elk]

thats why I work for MI5

[zinc matrix]

<_>

[verbal junco]

at least she wasn't a serial killer

or he

(no judgment here)

[deep copper]

the problem with relationships is, you need to invest yourself into it to make it work, and so does the other, with how hectic life is in older adult stage, it's rather difficult i think, and not to mention unrealistic expectations etc + assumptions and other human pains

[quasi mantle]

She may not be a serial killer, but I hope she's not serial killer for men's heart

[zinc matrix]

not that much for interested people

but the point of wasting a ton of effort is the point no one wants

[quasi mantle]

Last time she tries to manipulate me again long after the break up, I dodge the bullet by saying I'm attached to my waifu

[verbal junco]

even if there was time, I'd rather spend that time doing something I enjoy, rather than being forced to do something another person enjoys. I think that's what I realized in my last relationship too. and we even shared a lot of common interests

[deep copper]

yes, if they are ready to invest themselves, it works

[quasi mantle]

That actually saved me, because later I got reports that she manipulates her more recent boyfriend and now giving nude pics to strangers.

[zinc matrix]

or maybe not, but you just know if you try

and who wants to waster effort after so much time alone?

[cursive crypt]

When money and women arise as a topic, it just gets sad in #lounge

[zinc matrix]

or, "i am over 40s, it is too late"

[deep copper]

yes, making the other feel special is vital, and it's the most difficult, + if they become used to it you are definitely not getting any time anymore

[zinc matrix]

i met once a ladie doing volunteer, very hot italian retired philosophy teacher

you can find anything these days

[quasi mantle]

Still, I dodged a bullet because of anime waifu still felt surreal to me

[verbal junco]

it's just not worth the time to put in tbh

[zinc matrix]

there is too much people!!!

[zinc matrix]

@deep copper see, that is the mindset of locked ppl

[quasi mantle]

How A Fictional Idol Saved My Life From Certain Disaster

[deep copper]

there's also this, rushing things because low time, and giving up because too hard to search and no time for this , basically demotivation is there too for some people i guess?

[cursive crypt]

It is just sad. Sigh... So lonely and poor people.

[zinc matrix]

idk, i am in the process of turning asexual and loving my blender models rather than girls

[deep copper]

real people can be dangerous yeah, i have heard of year long relationships also not working out because of such issues that later develope

[verbal junco]

we can't all be blessed with a life partner that accepts every choice and cheap rent with a roof that tries to kill you for half a year

[zinc matrix]

anyway, making a 2 year old friendship with frequent contact feels better than digging into the thing straight out of the box

but if she is like you, do not waste it, i think

[verbal junco]

(I assume winter and double winter account for 6 months of the year here, I might be wrong)

[deep copper]

if you go nomad, you will no longer be able to see your models that much 😢

i will just turn into nomad if i can power a computer to model >.>

[deep copper]

i have also heard of divorce cases where you then give away half your income or something

[quasi mantle]

Well, I still consider myself kinda lucky. Had I go further with that woman, I would've got myself into constant manipulation and things that will haunt me for years to come.

[zinc matrix]

oh! what is the point giving society justification of partnership

[verbal junco]

oh yeah, marriage is an antiquated institution

[zinc matrix]

just marry without paper

[pearl elk]

no no no, always have a contract

[zinc matrix]

no no no

do not have one

[pearl elk]

yes, get a prenup 😛

cuz otherwise its defacto and youre screwed

[deep copper]

that sounds good but assumptions like "are they cheating" etc kill those

[zinc matrix]

ok, in case some katana girl is reading

[quasi mantle]

Especially now that cancel culture and sexual assault allegations run wild on the internet, I might get shot with one of those if I continue further with my ex and she found out about such tricks.

[zinc matrix]

my first requirement is. no violence and low-poly

[deep copper]

sounds good, go on a world tour!

[zinc matrix]

i think there is more chances of me giving up than thriving

[deep copper]

now you don't have to worry about that with waifus, win win

[pearl elk]

I think I might divorce windows

[verbal junco]

until you get AI waifus that will keep a log of everything you do

[deep copper]

she might already have been setting you up for it

[pearl elk]

AI is very good at reading legal documents

[zinc matrix]

just block her of all social media

including Discord

[deep copper]

even better! they can buy me cool presents with my own money!, ofc i will also buy them any random item they want

[zinc matrix]

lol

[deep copper]

game dev might go down this route

[pearl elk]

you could be your own waifu, just use a filter

[deep copper]

next to nft games

[verbal junco]

I think you'll find that they'll use that information against you

and then divorce you for a hotter, younger AI husbando

[deep copper]

atleat they won't put fake allegations against me, right? right?

[verbal junco]

the allegations won't have to be fake at that point

[deep copper]

oh yeah, there are gender switching filters

[quasi mantle]

Well, when she and I were together, she claims to have mental breakdown (after unfortunate events actually hit her) and she texted me to get on the bed in premarital fashion. I actually refuse, but I was just play along with the texts, and doesn't actually do it (hotels were far away from where I live at that time).

[deep copper]

if hotels were close you would've?

and mental breakdown is a simple but worthy trick

[quasi mantle]

Maybe still not. I had discomfort when that happen

[deep copper]

not sure if they really had it but whatever

[quasi mantle]

Well, given that she loses her relatives at the time, it was more understandable. But still, I didn't comfortable with it.

I intended to play along just to comfort her, and let it all out from her.

[deep copper]

not your fault, but sometimes not getting what they want from a person, can force people to try manipulative tricks

[quasi mantle]

I guess that really substitute as sexual assault (but initiated by woman), because I just felt discomfort all over when she sends those texts.

[deep copper]

if you don't like it, let them know i think it can serve as evidence in court

[quasi mantle]

At least now there's no strings attached, but the memory remains.

[quasi mantle]

I don't think Twitter knows anything about court. Though she was reluctant to use Twitter at that time.

[deep copper]

it's all in the past atleast, good learning experience perhaps 🫂

[deep copper]

only works if you didn't use something where messages can be edited or deleted etc

i think

or you have unchanged screenshots idk how that works

[zinc matrix]

oh do not marry on paper, please

and do not do paper things

[deep copper]

just do not marry for most here

[celest musk]

just do not

[zinc matrix]

i mean, can not you just resolve things in a logical way?

[deep copper]

not if someone frames you to be a bad person, it's usually trust issues etc

[zinc matrix]

if the girls manipulates you in any form that you do not like, just ditch her

wtf

there is 3 billion of girls

and some of them are very hot under your taste

or boy

whatever

[deep copper]

well, i don't think most people are as strong as you to score any

[zinc matrix]

lol

[quasi mantle]

I think the saving grace here is that she and I never actually texted to meet up on the designated hotel the next days

[zinc matrix]

i never went into a relationship 😐

my longest was 2 weeks

[deep copper]

sounds good i guess

[deep copper]

my longest is 0

[celest musk]

ai waifu is the way to go

[zinc matrix]

can we marry tonight?

[deep copper]

why not now?

[zinc matrix]

let me decide

i need to chat with my plants first

[deep copper]

lol

[celest musk]

this gonna be a better love story than twilight

[zinc matrix]

we are not vampires

we just chat

[celest musk]

are you mostly up at night?

[deep copper]

i can still suck blood if you want <3

[verbal junco]

*be not

[deep copper]

just be not?

[celest musk]

yea i wish

[zinc matrix]

i finally turned my sleep cycle to wake at 6am

[celest musk]

6am your timezone?

[verbal junco]

existence in cringe y'all

[zinc matrix]

hmm

so i am sorry if i sucked the energy of someone here by typing heavy stuff

[quasi mantle]

Rendered with Unreal Engine

[zinc matrix]

i am like this, discord allows you to block ppl

[deep copper]

lets embrace the cringe then !

[zinc matrix]

at least i can backup desperate people most of the time with terrific advice

ditch you manipulative girls

do not consume much violence

do not marry on paper

[quasi mantle]

Now that I think about it, even if she's accusing me of sexual assault later on in revenge, the evidence would still be in my favour.

[zinc matrix]

go out on EDM clubs and hit that hot ladie, she may be single

[celest musk]

and i can't stress that enough, don't use complex collision as simple

[zinc matrix]

why?

[fleet tangle]

Hit on*

[deep copper]

yup
