you dont want blood to go back in like that...

zinc matrix
#

or you can let it bleed

#

after all, we have blood inside

unreal ether
#

even my doctor tells me to tilt my head back and pinch the top of the nose

oblique cloak
#

but think about this, where will it go?

deep copper

stomach? lungs? brain?

i droped after it started to turn into a full romance between the hero and the girl

yikes nope

deep copper

just download and, decimate !

oblique cloak
#

Yeah its free with the CC license, most models online are

deep copper
#

oh wait you need higher poly?

oblique cloak
#

Yeah needs to be around 20 - 30 k too look decent. all my guns are lol

deep copper
oblique cloak

I wish you could nanite skel meshes. would be a game changer.

jk jk

zinc matrix
#

that is too much for a brother cultist

i mean, you bleed trough your nose...

deep copper

i can just imagine this pillow to be you again, it's okay, we got more than 5% time together now !

zinc matrix
deep copper

so i can lick the dripping blood in case it starts again

but in a closed system

deep copper
zinc matrix

i only have kitchen knifes and super-glue here

deep copper
#

i am falling asleep as i type, meaning i should stop typing

zinc matrix
#

i would probably kill you

deep copper

that's allll what matters

zinc matrix

waste some INT points and i can raise the donation amount

#

jk jk

deep copper

zinc matrix

cute, i like that

#

you feel ironic when sleepy

deep copper

that's because I can't think OR type en

You want a game idea?

deep copper
#

if we dream at the same time, i suppose it counts?

deep copper
oblique cloak
#

remake this

deep copper
#

nice, now they can put it on that pedestal

#

i think bleeding stopped now, i don't feel wet

#

off i go

tulip orbit
oblique cloak
#

this is no racing game.

deep copper
#

it's a driving game!

oblique cloak
#

its all about getting to the end with crazy nos and lift, tubes, tunnels ramps lol

#

i loved this mod when i was 12

#

this is what got me into game dev.

tulip orbit
#

so why dont you remake it?

oblique cloak
#

tbh xD

#

most people would not like it

#

lol

deep copper
#

they are leveling up their skills to make this the most wonderful masterpiece possible

oblique cloak
#

cool concept tho.

#

i dont like racing/car sims no more.

tulip orbit
#

I've got a vague, general, overarching possible sorta game "idea", that I need to fine tune into an actual idea

deep copper
#

you can so it !

tulip orbit
#

yeah, I'm not a fan of most driving games. not least because I suck at em

deep copper
#

believe in yourself

tulip orbit
deep copper
#

a

tulip orbit
#

bow and arrow, medieval, use nanite/lumen. <-- thats it

deep copper
#

i fixed it

zinc matrix
#

maybe he meant yousif

oblique cloak
#

like this?

deep copper
verbal junco
#

nanite and lumen are huge in game design

tulip orbit
#

hopefully I can make good use of them

oblique cloak
#

lol

tulip orbit
#

I couldnt be bothered to scrub thru to the bow. Plus it was going slow anyway

verbal junco
oblique cloak
#

tbh id play some kind of DM with swords, bows, etc. sounds fun

tulip orbit
#

I was at one point. But now I've been sitting on a 1/4 idea and some basics ingame for a few weeks

#

I wont be doing MP. No idea how

oblique cloak
#

Well start by going into skecthfab and getting some of your models!

verbal junco
tulip orbit
#

I cant model anything until I know what I'm modelling! Cant greybox levels until I know where the levels are being set

oblique cloak
#

imagine adding a wall running mechanic with a bow and arrow.

tulip orbit
#

my original vision didnt have any parkour type stuff. More old-school unreal/quake/thief type gameplay

#

just bow and arrow, but with different arrows, right now I have steel, fire, water

#

I am looking at a general theme "Aetherpunk"

verbal junco
#

thief is going to be difficult to emulate

#

but I respect the reference

tulip orbit
#

yeah, I'm not trying for the light/stealth stuff

verbal junco
#

I still think you should find some constraints for your design

#

it'll make your designs better

tulip orbit
#

like what kind of constraints? other than bow/arrow only, no climbing/parkour

verbal junco
#

or even to the narrative

#

like what would the gameplay look like if it there was a constant fog that obscured anything beyond a few feet infront of you?

#

or, just as an example, what would the gameplay be like if the entire game took place underwater?

#

not all constraints are going to be valid, but experimenting with them is going to cement what works and what doesn't work for your design

tulip orbit
#

am thinking it'll be perpetual twilight... night time all the time

verbal junco
#

right but how is that going to affect your gameplay if you can't do light/dark mechanics?

tulip orbit
#

just visibility for the player I guess. Make things pretty looking if I add the right lighting/torches/etc

#

fire arrow can light torches, water can put them out

verbal junco
#

so perhaps it's worth considering some constraints

#

whether they are from the environment, or from the character

#

or from the narrative

#

maybe your character is very sick so everything takes a lot longer or costs more resources

#

maybe your character needs medicine to do things correctly

#

etc.

tulip orbit
#

hmm

verbal junco
#

otherwise what are you actually going to be doing other than lighting torches and putting them out with fire and water arrows?

tulip orbit
#

uh... I dont know yet 😦

verbal junco
#

well that's my point

tulip orbit
#

and thats my problem. but its my problem.

#

Just cleaned my glasses, a very productive day. ☺️

tulip orbit

nice! pokes glasses with grubby fingers

#

I think I'm going to play Overwatch and then cry myself to sleep.

oblique cloak
#

lol

#

do that with valorant

#

more aggressive.

ocean parcel
#

I heard the chinese can hack you if you install valorant.

tulip orbit
verbal junco
#

I think I was more trying to point you towards how to think about your (design) problems, not solve them for you

tulip orbit
#

yeah, I'm just brain dead right now

verbal junco
#

I want no part of your project, I can assure you

tulip orbit
#

I should be getting a few more hours sleep before work tonight...

oblique cloak
#

Anyone wanna tell me there favorite assault rifle from any video game that's not futuristic? making a list of ideas now, just need some other people favs.

tulip orbit
#

the only one I know by name is "ak47" so I'm not much help 😦

oblique cloak
#

xD

#

all good bud

solid hull
#

The M4 has got to be a popular one.

unreal ether
#

other than that it's probably going to be something like a galil or FAL

oblique cloak
#

xm8 really? i hated this gun xD the way it looks makes me go bunkers. lol

unreal ether
#

oh i love it

#

its brilliant

#

other than that cannot go wrong with a g36

#

im just a massive hk fanboy

#

g36, mp7, mp5

oblique cloak
solid hull
#

Are we doing submachine guns?
p90 is my fav cuz it looks like some ridiculous scifi thing, but it's real

unreal ether
#

now the p90 is another good one

#

idk what it is with FN but they do some weird stuff

foggy path
#

Jatimatic > all

unreal ether
#

a 5.56 handgun, a magazine that rotates bullets

#

do the totally real and not at all prototype only pancor jackhammer

#

FN is a weapons company fueled by crack im sure of it

foggy path
#

Not only does the Jatimatic look like it has a bent barrel, it was used by Stallone in Cobra

unreal ether
#

looks cool tbf

#

yo can you add my fav anti materiel rifle

#

its either that or the Hecate II

#

or a GM6 Lynx

#

NTW 20 is an odd one

#

but its cool

oblique cloak
#

thanks for the ideas, written them down 🙂

#

its kind of sad i only get like 3 guns done per day. when it comes to animating its like 1 and a half per day lol

tight panther
#

Does FAMAS count as futuristic?

oblique cloak
#

on the list 🙂

#

love that gun

tight panther
#

Way to go!

oblique cloak
#

that and the m16 are the only 2 3 bullet shot weapons

#

i love this STG44 so much 😦 man german weapons are so beautiful

tight panther
#

I'll appreciate that comment 👀

#

FAMAS is French though, I believe

#

Doesn't change the fact that I modeled that thing at least 5 times in Blender though as a kid xP

tight panther
oblique cloak
#

How do things like this freaking exist.

#

Yeah i rig em all 🙂

#

i do it myself, its so easy tbh

tight panther
#

So manually so to speak?

tight panther

LMFAO

oblique cloak
#

So they extracted a weapon from cod, and are giving it away for free with a shetchfab License:

#

dang hit the jackpot.

tight panther
oblique cloak
#

nothing just 3ds max

tight panther
#

Interesting

oblique cloak
#

takes all of 2 minutes

tight panther
#

'Cause I'm fighting with rigging & ARTv2 right now haha

oblique cloak
#

ARTv2?

tight panther
#

(Beta) Maya plugin from Epic

oblique cloak
#

what are you trying to rig?

#

Ahhhh

tight panther
#

Characters, unfortunately

oblique cloak
#

Ouch, yeah thats a pain in the arse, weapons only use 4 - 10 bones xD

tight panther
#

:D

oblique cloak
#

why not use meta humans?

#

or new skel?

tight panther
#

I didn't look into it so far tbh

#

I'm not sure if this is too specific for #lounge already, but I'm curious as to what Epic uses for rigging internally

#

Because ARTv1 is getting kind of old AFAIK

#

Last supported engine version on the marketplace is 4.21

oblique cloak
#

I dont understand how to use maya.

#

only 3ds max, and control rigs kinda of make animating useless in 3rd party's

#

sooo i just create bones in 3ds max call it a day

tight panther
#

Love Control Rig

#

No skinning in UE though, not for now at least :P

oblique cloak
#

I call it "Animating Made Easy" TM

tight panther
#

And IK :D

oblique cloak
#

most people do not understand how simple these things are lol i took a whole static mesh today broke it down into parts, and skinned and rigged it.

tight panther
#

Well we all struggle with different things

#

(As you can see :P)

oblique cloak
#

Yeah i see that lol

#

the thing i struggle with is taking an animation that does not have an epic skel and only arms rigged to it and migrating it to a epic skel.

#

now that is skill.

#

so many cool anims out here just called bone1 ,bone2, bone3, bone4.... etc lol no thanks.

unreal ether
#

FWIW if its extracted from COD you still arent licenses to use it

#

They dont get to set license terms on stolen assets so their terms are void

oblique cloak
unreal ether
#

Ah thank god

#

Can never be too careful

#

Too many domt know licensing stuff

oblique cloak
#

trust me i have ever creater for each model i got from in a text doc 🙂 they will be included in credits.

#

lol

unreal ether
#

Aw thats good

oblique cloak
#

not trying to get sued ever xD

unreal ether
#

Even if you dint need to?

oblique cloak
#

yeah

unreal ether
#

Like if its cc 0

oblique cloak
#

like the paid assets on unreal

unreal ether
#

What about cc 0 public domain

bronze parcel
oblique cloak
#

you give credit where its due. if you did not make it, let the world know who did.

unreal ether
#

So far thankfully ive only meeded to credit 2 people and thats cause their raw sounds were not cc 0

#

I expect that number to rise dramatically

#

I cannot foley everything lmao

oblique cloak
#

yeah but still, it feels weird not to credit the author

#

LOL

#

i feel that

unreal ether
#

Yeah id credit model authors

oblique cloak
#

thank god i baught this bullet shooting sound pack for 30 dollars when it was 90% off 🙂

unreal ether
#

I jsut havent for public domain sounds yet, cause i still have to do a ton of processing to em

oblique cloak
#

what type of game is it?

unreal ether
#

If they were finished sounds i would

#

Basically a game where you control utility robots

#

Like roombas

#

Sorta like a powerwashing simulator for roombas

oblique cloak
#

xD sounds like a phone game

scarlet cedar
#

Good day friends, how everyone going?

unreal ether
#

But its more focused on using different combinations to complete levels

oblique cloak
#

could be #1 on the app store

unreal ether
#

Like we have 1 roomba with a little hand glider etc.

#

Its not as boring as it seems its a fun little silly game

pure hound
#

yeah the license thing is super scary tbh

unreal ether
#

You go from sweeping houses and cafes to space ships n stuff

#

And you collect more friends along the way

#

Cause theyre sentient

pure hound
#

imagine someone selling a legit asset but imagine if its made in pirated software 😄

unreal ether
#

Ye

pure hound
#

you buy it its legit but the metadata makes it reveal later

unreal ether
#

Stuff like the metadeta in educational edition maya assets

pure hound
#

then you might have to throw out stuff from your released game

unreal ether
pure hound
#

yeah thats what im talking about maya photoshop etc

unreal ether
#

Waaay too large for that

#

Some of the maps are massive

#

And theyre packed with easter eggs and references n stuff

pure hound
#

many ppl don't know about digital watermarking and just use student licenses

unreal ether
#

Was just meant to be for a little introduction to the entire process to put on steam

#

Also meant to introduce my partner to the process a bit more

pure hound
#

especially that now there are studios buying up many modelers assets and compiling a package for example an environment of them

unreal ether
#

Yee

pure hound
#

so its like a field of landmines 😄

#

hope they are all fine what i bought

tight panther
#

Huh, maybe manual rigging is the way to go

oblique cloak
#

sounds good, but wierd at the same time, cant wait to try

#

xD

unreal ether
#

Its not just trash you sweep up tho

#

Theres lawnmower roombas and stuff

#

Some good ones have abilities like vortexs as well

who guess what i made on the long weekend

it needs no marking assets just uses colision

Fight back against unauthorized aimbotting and scripting! Build those mechanics INTO your game!

#

it's my strategy

quasi mantle
#

Wanted to include AUG, but that's borderline "futuristic"

oblique cloak
#

seems im hitting the perfect goal then 🙂

#

all those on the list

#
  • m4a1, and ebr
quasi mantle
oblique cloak
#

semi

#

considered an ar tho

#

thought it was a sniper

quasi mantle
#

From what I know AR should be full auto by default

oblique cloak
#

will note that and make a tactile rifle list then with unscoped kar, springfield etc.

primal summit
#

my preference would be a proper battle rifle, like the 1903 or 98k

quasi mantle
#

If we go for old battle rifle, my picks are Mosin Nagant, Garand M1, Arisaka variants

primal summit
#

with most models being 3 round burst, as your average soldier is not capable of accurate full auto fire, and 3 round burst gives somewhat enhanced hit and kill odds under high stress than semi auto

#

indeed, semi-auto's easy to select from safe, but burst/full auto is a more complex, deliberate movement so the default is semi-auto and it takes a concious effort to select more than one shot per trigger pull

#

other nations with less emphasis on marksmanship in training (and in general less training) go the opposite, defaulting to burst or auto (and possibly only burst or auto)

#

@oblique cloak see above

WHY BOTHER PLAYING

#

JESUS

primal summit

erm think I @ed the wrong person?

sorry

oblique cloak

naw

your good

#

I have 2 weapons

#

2 3 shot bursts

primal summit

cr_makoto

oblique cloak

and the rest full auto

#

well its more ment for me xD

#

im making the shooter

primal summit
#

ahh

oblique cloak
#

full blueprint game with c++ derived shooting physics and logic thats c++

#

and cs/hl movement

primal summit
#

unfortunately, reality isn't balanced

oblique cloak
#

you can balance any game if you delay the shot perfectly/ recoil pattern 🙂

primal summit
#

a 1911 shooting .45acp has less muzzle energy than an uzi in .45acp, but you need to balance them by decreasing the uzi damage because there's no way to bring the 1911 up to compete, even if they're both sidearms

oblique cloak
#

thats why i have no UZI lol

#

or p90

primal summit
#

switching time can help, but it won't stop dedicated uzi builds

#

just an example

oblique cloak
#

i understand

primal summit
#

garand vs m1903

oblique cloak
#

i added a thompson and mp40 and stg44 already 😉 just need to find a good bar model.

primal summit
#

cost could be a scaling tool, but so could giving more experience or reward (or having the enemy drop more or better loot) for the higher skill weapon

oblique cloak
#

All depends if i make the blueprint better. right now only measuring distance per bullet, and rate of fire with a line trace.

#

would have to add a more initiative system, to change the way each thing separates.

primal summit
#

are you doing much with scopes?

oblique cloak
#

included in buy menu like cs

#

500 ea.

primal summit
#

One pet peeve I have is pulling the scope up to your eye, you can still see through it before it's centered. Unless it's a 1x reflex sight, that's not how it works

#

another is the lazy FOV reduction=zoom, and you can still see around the scope so it's all magnified

#

For traditional scopes, you see the circle of magnified view and the rest is black, blocked by the scope. For extended eye relief (scout and pistol) scopes, you see the magnified inner field of view and an unmagnified everything else around it

oblique cloak
#

yeah the only magnification will be acogs tbh. and you can only ADS when you purchase a sight.

#

it seems like a good system so far, tested with a friend, with the low poly shooter pack.

#

trust, i want the realism + game feeling

#

i played to many shooters, for this to be the black scope outline outside, i have a fov scale that bursa the outside scope.

quasi mantle
regal pecan
#

What about having multiple scopes/sights on the same gun?

#

I don't know which game did it first (one of the cods maybe?)

scarp the ideas they have, go back to the cod MW4 drawing board. make a game like that classic.

oblique cloak
#

2008 cod 😛

primal summit
#

call of duty shall never be a classic

quasi mantle
#

If that's what you mean, then yeah, that game felt ahead of its time

primal summit

I frankly don't see how it's even remotely popular

# pearl elk Doom 3 isnt a Doom game btw

For some, maybe isn't, but I guess it was what id thought what Doom would be until that point.

I felt like classic Doom being boomer shooter was just because hardware limitations and contemporary game design in '93.

regal pecan
#

Doom 3 was still boomer shooter.

quasi mantle
#

And then the boomer shooter concept got popularised almost 3 decades later

quasi mantle
pearl elk
#

Doom was very fast paced, I dont think it was a limitation of the hardware but a specific design choice

regal pecan
#

It's strange to me that for all the advances of Doom 3, it didn't support 16:10 resolutions.

#

or even arbitrary resolutions.

regal pecan
#

Later releases don't count.

pearl elk
#

it was possible to do a flash light and slower walk speed, locking players into tighter spaces but they chose not to

Though I think if you're making an engine, if you can't draw at 1600x31, you should be relegated to gameplay programming.

#

Its all very commercial these days. I remember reading about Ratbag taking Powerslide to E3, they put their PC in carry on because it was the only computer they knew for a fact would run the demo, they had a simple fold out table with the PC on it running the game

RIP E3

back when garage games were just that, now its all pros pretending to be indie 😛

quasi mantle
#

I think in the 90s home computer/console games still have close root to the arcade game design, until arcade started to die down in the 00s

#

Not entirely away, but least enough to dwarf arcade compared to home computer/console

mobile games are still very arcade orientated

I would say they evolved in parallel.

delivery robots got stuck at pedestrian lights because they have no way of pushing the "I want to cross" button

Gotta put lower that button

unborn lotus

Just hire a guy to push it for them

pearl elk

surely they could reroute if they detect a bottleneck like that

foggy path
#

They don't have automatic lights switching in Helsinki then I guess 🤔

#

pretty sure where I live all the lights do switch between green and red even if there's nobody pushing the buttons, the buttons just make it happen a bit faster

#

and yeah there was an article about that robot traffic jam - they design the routes so the robots can avoid the crosswalks with buttons, but apparently it didn't work out this time so well

pearl elk
#

we have two different types, when its lines like that its a pedestrian crossing but if its a dotted line then its a traffic crossing so pedestrians still need to give way to cars... not that they do 😛

foggy path
#

they have speakers on them that they use to ask for help if they get stuck

cursive crypt
#

So pizza went cold before arriving?

pearl elk
#

I like how wide the crossing is but the robots are all single file

foggy path
#

Two different types of crossings? That's not confusing at all..

#

Over here all crosswalks always have priority for pedestrians (unless indicated otherwise by a red/green light), but for cyclists the rules are a bit more complicated

pearl elk
#

we call this a zebra crossing

#

those lines actually mean a pedestrian can walk out on the road whenever like they

foggy path
#

Yeah that's what it means here if there's no light next to it lol

pearl elk
#

if theres a light next to it then theres dotted lines indicating a pedestrian traffic crossing

#

usually there is a car stop line

foggy path
#

Right

#

Yeah every case if there's a light on the crossing there's also lights for cars here

pearl elk
#

robots should just use the tunnels under the city hehe

foggy path
#

Yeah I'm not entirely sure how I feel about companies using shoddy tech and making pedestrians to act essentially as robot baby sitters lol

pearl elk
#

Im not sure if robots are technically pedestrians or not either

#

might be some sort of loop hole there if you dont give way

foggy path
#

Here it usually goes based on how fast things move so if they move at a walking pace'ish they'd probably be considered pedestrians from that perspective

pearl elk
#

we dont consider unattended animals pedestrians, if they run onto the road they tell you not to swerve shrug

foggy path
#

Yeah it's the same here I think

#

But if a dog is on a crosswalk you would probably let them cross lol

#

or a squirrel

#

most people would probably swerves for dogs, squirrels maybe not

#

but since you're expected to always be able to stop when approaching a crosswalk, might as well slow down for an animal I guess :P

#

especially as running into them tends to cause damage to your vehicle lol

pearl elk
#

Oh forsure, you can be nice to animals if you want. We have signs to look out for certain animals but I doubt people would take kindly to a look out for robots sign, theyd probably just go at em harder than they would a cyclist

foggy path
#

#

they probably would try it once and then when it trashes their car they wouldn't do it again...

#

Would probably ruin your bumper and possibly even front suspension depending on where it hits :P

kei cars can at least have 660cc engines and these things are limited to 50 with top speed of 45kph

#

Uhh yeah I dunno

verbal junco

it gets around the problem in the first 30 mins or so

#

the talk ends an hour in

#

rest is QA

#

(the other QA)

foggy path
#

Oh I guess it's just about how much code is needed for X

#

dunno if there's much you can do other than invent higher level languages ¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

abstractions on top of abstractions

verbal junco
#

no I mean he's basically saying that it's a problem that hardware and software is kept apart

#

and that hardware folks shouldn't rely so heavily on driver software but rather ship it with the product

#

his argument is that e.g. intel does this already for CPUs

#

and generally lessen the amount of bulk code that you're building on top of

foggy path
#

Ah

#

Yeah I just skimmed it :P

#

Tbh don't really know how it functions on that level. How would hw work without driver software across OS's

verbal junco
#

presumably the same way that intel processors can run on multiple OSs?

#

though I don't have the understanding of HAL or anything at the level where I can make a valid statement about this

#

but Jon Blow had a similar talk, that I posted yesterday

foggy path
#

I think that's because programs are compiled to run on the processor

#

I think this would just move the burden of compatibility to the hardware instead of the software, so I don't really know how it would solve anything

#

Besides I think they more or less already do this, ie. USB devices all talk the same language to the computer

#

I don't know if I'm completely off the track as a result of not feeling like watching the whole vid tho lol

verbal junco
#

or something like that anyway

foggy path
#

Right

#

I mean it sort of makes sense but I don't honestly know how that would be achieved without the result just being that the complexity still exists, you've just moved it to a slightly different place

verbal junco
#

the complexity exists, but it's no longer a wall of obscurity, but rather managed by the people who would know how to manage it

#

consider that if a bug happens at the layer that you're working on, it may be a bug on your layer (best case), or it might be a bug on any on the layers beneath you. in which case you're at the mercy of other people's code

foggy path
#

Why do you think there would suddenly be an army of people who know how to manage it if the people managing it currently are incapable of doing so :D

verbal junco
#

anyway I am probably and most likely butchering the message

#

but I think it's interesting

foggy path
#

Yeah, I just don't really see how it would change things. If you move more into hardware level, your hardware is now more complex and thus more error prone

#

And being hardware it's kind of hard to change it, unlike software, which can be patched if it's flawed

#

The cpu case is interesting as an example as well

#

x86 cpus are stupidly complicated

#

I think they have instruction sets in the hundreds

verbal junco
foggy path
#

but then you have more recent developments like RISC-V which has a tiny instruction set by comparison

#

and there's actually benefits from the hardware being simpler instead of more complex

verbal junco
#

well again don't take my word for it

#

watch the video 🙂

most other languages just don't have such a convenient packaging system which would encourage people to make very small packages like left-pad

primal summit
#

people are lazy

#

Want a laugh? Space engineers implemented scripting in the game. They chose C#, same as the game is written in. All scripts must run in deterministic time, 10k line max script size (to start). People were throwing fits because the libraries they were pasting in to use took over 10k lines!
Then it got changed to time-limited.
They exposed engine primitives as functions to call. Server-side remote execution vulnerabilities were discovered...

foggy path
#

Unsurprising

primal summit
#

Scripts were initially ephemeral with no data saved between runs. People built rooms of lights whose names were variables and brightness was value.

foggy path

I'm surprised it didn't just explode at that point considering how janky everything I tried to build in that game was

primal summit

people are lazy, 10k line libraries because they want to work in a familiar environment that will use about 4 lines from that library, people are creative, no variables persist, so let's make variables that persist

when it's the same people complaining about script length without regarding interpreter time that are also publishing the variables in lights workaround, I feel confident in my assessment
