proud jay

proud jay
deep copper
proud jay
#

don't talk about dilation pls

#

heard it 14 times already

deep copper
#

14 times? are the children okay?

proud jay
#

yes

#

the wife not so much

#

hence why I turned gay last month

deep copper
#

so all from same wife?

#

that's not what i expected, but alright

deep copper
#

you can be the 15th now that the wife can't !

proud jay
#

I think they were already born

deep copper
#

but isn't that how gays work ๐Ÿค” adoption?

proud jay
#

there's multiple ways

deep copper
#

15 is also a number divisible by 5 it's pretty good

#cpp should have its own lounge

pearl elk
#

Lounge should have its own lounge

#

Then we got a place to hold a speak easy

cursive crypt
#

Just came from driving outside. A bit of rain and everyone starts to crawl with these cars.

#

No, it does not.

#

This is Lounge

#

No, this is Lounge lounge.

#

The other one would be cpp lounge, or any other language (Rust, eww)

pearl elk
#

We're in now now

#

Sooooooon

cursive crypt
#

Now is in the future.

#

Asap, is in the past.

pearl elk
#

it should be ++C

graceful sequoia
#

I'm just lounging, reminiscing of times past where I wrote a bunch of c++. Let me tell you of those times

#

it was the best of times, it was the worst of times

graceful sequoia
cursive crypt
#

Live outside the system. Don't register your uobjects in the GObjectArray

pearl elk
#

Rage against the Subsystem

cursive crypt
#

malloc returns zero? ... this is exceptional

#

lol

#

that was C

#

So boomer

pearl elk
#

I live life recursively one line at a time

graceful sequoia
#

words to live by in these trying times

pearl elk
#

Amateur dont use malloc

#

Ive seen the way you code

graceful sequoia
#

usually with musical notation

cursive crypt
#

ue overrides it, eww

we need an alert when @cursive crypt is active so #cpp can slide into #lounge with better timing

Unreal def needs more bronys

cursive crypt
#

This is the good thing here, no questions. Only gifs

trail wedge
#

no you see... being on topic is more important than keeping active users in the channel

cursive crypt
#

MarkGC

trail wedge
#

I was doing that at like 3am this morning

cursive crypt
#

So, which one?

cursive crypt
#

trail wedge
graceful sequoia
#

the ue4/ue5 channels are where people too lazy to read a list of topics and pick one ask questions

graceful sequoia
#

its the wild west of slackers

graceful sequoia
#

also yes

cursive crypt
#

I always have to good wish to do more BPs, but... it is just too much work.

graceful sequoia
#

those are for when you graduate and realize that ue4/5 chats typically have the worst advice you can find

pearl elk
#

Ive just resigned myself to the fact I cant be helped so its the lounge life for me

graceful sequoia
cursive crypt
#

Sometimes it is not in the code tho. Nobody answered my question about generating better SDFs out of rasters.

graceful sequoia
pearl elk
#

I think the growth of the community hasnt helped for being able to find people to help that and the engine is huge so more specialisation

graceful sequoia
#

yeah but thats mainly because a difficult question is likely to be buried before the right pair of eyes sees it, but what can you do

trail wedge
#

if you're doing something that isn't niche, you'll get an answer immediately in active channels like #cpp and that's because of the growth of the community

cursive crypt
#

Maybe like 2/3 are elementary questions, then 1/3 requires 10 minutes of research.

pearl elk
#

Yeah its tricky, even if the right eyes see it it can still end up buried before you get a good answer

#

I got it

cursive crypt
#

Same issue with tutz. Most of them target the beginners, as the biggest mass.

trail wedge
#

I mean it's chat, not a forum; you gotta hang out and keep asking as new people join the convo

pearl elk
#

UE coin, its a crypto you use to pay for pro help

trail wedge
pearl elk
#

You earn it by posting gifs in lounge

graceful sequoia
cursive crypt
#

Hey, I almost never ask.

graceful sequoia
#

just trying to corner the market on ue coin

#

i assume its resellable

cursive crypt
#

ue coins?

graceful sequoia
#

HODL

deep copper
pearl elk
#

But tbh maybe a karma system could work, answer questions to gain points to ask questions which can reach those with a good score

#

Atm it is just the wild west and Im out there robbing banks

#

Bit like my UDK MVP badge hehe

#

But I got my AH Sage one back so Im happy bout that

trail wedge
pearl elk
#

I have trouble finding people to help tbh, it costs me alot in time

#

Time I could be using to you know, help people ๐Ÿ˜€

#

So instead I spent that time teaching myself all sorts of wonderful things like the different grades of aluminium

trail wedge
pearl elk
#

You know F1 actually has rules about what grades of carbon fiber are allowed

trail wedge
#

it'd be weird if they didn't tbh

pearl elk
#

Ive never used Hot Reload

pearl elk
#

Basically the same as uscript was for me, cept now I can accudently rebuild everything

pearl elk
#

Ive never had a BP reset its default values either

cursive crypt
#

Living Coding is buggy too tho.

pearl elk
#

Dont use that either :)

#

Maybe old school has its benefits

cursive crypt
#

Think thrice, code once is good in general.

pearl elk
#

Can still make cyclic dependencies in BP which crash the engine though

#

Even though those objects should know better

Live++ comes in real handy when working with slate, that's most of what I use it for

#

You forgot you need a special flute to get the C++ compiler to play nice

cursive crypt
#

Hm... compiler is fine

pearl elk
#

Compiler is the worst Ive ever used

cursive crypt
#

Tho, msvc has its own quirks.

pearl elk
#

In my 30yrs of coding

#

Works great for C++, not so great for whatever Epic uses it for ๐Ÿ˜œ

cursive crypt
#

They got first? lol, nah - almost all features are implemented first in clang/gcc

#

Not sure how they compare with the coverage of the standard, but I remember time they missed stuff.

#

Hmm.. wait, I think even the other day I didn't found ranges::transform ๐Ÿค”

pearl elk
#

I think the peeps writing the standard got there first

#

Then Epic comes along and ignores the standards hehe

cursive crypt
#

I miss dates there tho.

pearl elk
#

IsValid is my fav c++20 feature

cursive crypt
#

The most ubiquitous func called in UE

#

Which means - I have no f clue wtf is going on, let me be superstitious.

#

Really, many proposals are first implemented in other compilers. Or that was the case past few years.

#

If they can put the people to catch up first and overrun the rest - fine. I mean that nice.

#

See

#

Well, I can't deny they even got WSL.

#

Maybe we see some sanity.

pearl elk
#

!8ball is the c++ compiler superstitious?

turbid spindleBOT
#

@pearl elk, :8ball: Signs point to yes.

cursive crypt
#

Yeah, I usually have one terminal hanging around. Can be confusing which is installed where.

#

Why gentoo, lol?

#

I mean, why care.

torpid star

macOS is great if you pretend it's a distro and never touch any of the Apple stuff.

cursive crypt

macOS is great as long you see the posix inside.

it's not fun if you can't accidently erase the root directory and kill your week long install

I think we all know they meant equivalent drivers to Windows

PopOS ftw lol

I tried the QT desktop once on like Fedora and it took me 5 mins to break it

trail wedge

Sorry if I came off harshly but I honestly think less of people if I know they like Apple products (this is a belief solidified over the years)

pearl elk

Not the nano

trail wedge
pearl elk
#

By that time creative was broke

and Creative Labs and other companies had small cheap MP3 players too

pearl elk

Im sure they did but that doesnt make the nano bad

Its like the singular Apple product Id defend tbh lol

I live on Mars obv

tender lily
#

I released my game, it was a critical success and a huge financial flop. luckily I didn't bet the ranch on it.

then I made a discord bot and within a month it took off, I now make 10x what my game made in its lifetime, every month in SAAS fees

tender lily
deep copper
#

there was someone using better discord plugins to track that, note discord still sends an event even when you login with invisible grey mode

graceful sequoia
#

yeah docs be like "or you could use python!!"

no one: ok

tender lily
#

my bot is a labour of love too

#

but I was smart

#

I spent 9 years on my game

#

9 days bootstrapping the bot lol

#

equal love crammed into smaller timeframe

#

that's why it's so awesome lol

graceful sequoia
#

always be shipping? greenlight that early access game, make your customers fund development /s

deep copper
pearl elk
#

Maybe game dev is the game

graceful sequoia
tender lily
#

funny thing was, the bot was supposed to be a stealth promo platform for my game dev, so that I could get tons of steam wishlist.

what actually happened was the bot scaled and ate all the resources id set aside for a dedicated server for my next game

torpid star
graceful sequoia
deep copper
#

what does the bot do btw?

trail wedge
#

Yeh I gave up trying that approach with people lol

tender lily
#

lol at the meme

#

I really expected more from my game, I was finalist at an indie contest, exhibited at an expo, was featured once on the community spotlight

#

didn't mean anything on release day lol

#

not enough wishlist to thrive

#

yup or lack of

pearl elk
#

What if playing game dev sim generated an NFT for an actual game that you sell and get royalties on

torpid star
#

Can anyone here still play Unreal games? Unreal development has ruined immersion for me.

deep copper
#

but i play nothing

tender lily
#

this is why the discord bot thrived though, I did bet the farm in it and sunk ยฃ3000 into ads. made them back in the first 6 months

graceful sequoia
#

i just get jealous at how much better they are than mine

tender lily
#

I learned my lessons from the game failure

graceful sequoia
#

and then, inspired

torpid star
#

yes but what if you don't want to game dev, what if you just want to play a vidya

pearl elk
#

But is making a complete game a failure

tender lily
#

was a lot of money, had to put it on a loan lol

pearl elk
#

I mean you made a game, learnt and did better... sounds like success

if you're making an Unreal game, please adjust the default tonemapper and make some changes to the eye adaption curve. Be different, don't be Unreal.

deep copper

#

while everyone else takes up massive resources to scale their js monsters I run one dedicated server at tiny cost

graceful sequoia
#

i guess everything looked like a nail

pearl elk
#

To me failure is not being able to learn from mistakes, to not have that retrospection and be able to apply that. Lots of big companies do it like Activision on CoD for eg oh WW2 failed us instead of X, Y and Z didnt work we need to improve on A, B and C next time

compute is the next frontier for userland development, have you user space code run on all the GPU cores. Obviously I'm kidding, but having compute contribute to your games logic is a fun one.

if you want to get hired just start googling a bunch of python shit, a few years back I was working on a python matchmaker and the entire google screen changed and google had invited me to their foobar coding challenge, if you do the challenge you get a job at google.

tldr all you have to do is google a bunch of python stuff for a few days and you'll get an invite.

you can just sell them and take over the world easily

it's still not clear where they come from

deep copper

i really don't recall it xD

tender lily

I mean are they just "are"? like an intrinsic force of the universe, a force of chaos?

#

or did someone clone them

the DNA of what a Banana?

that would explain some things...

deep copper

yeah, and really smart idea too you could imagine all the merch, spinoffs and game licensing they had in mind lol

it really worked well ๐Ÿค”

i remember nearly everything on fb or insta or similar had minions in all qoutes

Didn't the movie Minions go into their backstory?

most probably xD

I guess it didn't do the absolute beginning

I just remember something about them serving various villains and predators throughout history

Apparently there's a new minions movie coming out in July

yea, you

deep copper

i can mob mods?

no, you can be mobbed

you want to mob me ๐Ÿ’–

it's not, they should already be used to it, but a sudden one might be a bit.. risky ๐Ÿ˜„

if it doesn't change anything to the worse

that didn't age well...

deep copper

welll, it didn't age that worse either !

celest musk

i wish i had your optimism, or maybe better not

deep copper

just think of "what's the worst that could statistically+realistically happen", if it's not super terrible, you are okay !! !!!

celest musk

yea i'm, but you are not xD

deep copper

not what ? ๐Ÿ˜„

foggy path
#

Somebody made Deus Ex which is a UE1 game run inside UE4 so that... UE1 somehow still runs the game, but UE4 does the rendering

timber viper
#

UE4 is that backwards compatible??

#

wtf

celest musk
#

why are people doing this?

torpid star
#

why aren't more people doing this?

unreal cedar
#

unreal isn't even remotely that backwards compatible. At best they're probably mirroring positions and animations to UE4/5's renderer.

fathom wadi
foggy path
#

Yeah I have no clue how that works lol

fathom wadi
#

if you can load the dlls and know the function signatures to hook it, you can create Unreal types for the data

unreal cedar
#

You definitely cannot.

#

Unreal's API has changed so much over the years it's not even remotely possible to do so.

fathom wadi
#

I've done it with other old code so I dont see why not

unreal cedar
#

Old code... so UE1 up to UE4? They're barely even the same engine.

celest musk
#

well, you convert them either "on the fly" or prior

unreal cedar
#

You can't just "convert" them. The APIs are entirely different.

fathom wadi
#

I know but that doesn't matter if you know the old code and unreal 1 isn't exactly a secret

unreal cedar
#

And the engines have vastly different featuresets.

#

Hell, the representation of world geometry is entirely different just between UE3 and 4.

#

Since there's basically no info in that video, I'd say they either hacked up UE1 to take VR input or they imported models/animations into UE4 and aren't actually running a real game.

foggy path
#

I could see it being potentially possible to update the original code to create UE4 scene proxies

#

since that's what the renderer uses afaik

fathom wadi
#

looking at the video it looks like they just ripped some models and emulated it. No hud and it only shows one static section of a level.

unreal cedar
foggy path
#

would you though? you just need a few scene proxies for each of the things

unreal cedar
#

the renderer works entirely differently

foggy path
#

if you wanted to have a custom light for example you would create a scene proxy for it

celest musk
#

you can probably run the renderer in a shader ๐Ÿ˜„

unreal cedar
#

and there's some massive complexity in trying to run an engine not meant to be hosted inside another engine.

#

Nothing about trying to run a UE1 game in UE4 makes sense unless you have a massively experienced team.

foggy path
#

But yeah it would make more sense to me that it was just loading the assets into UE

fathom wadi
#

hes rebuilding it, bit by bit. checked his twitter and there's a reddit. just ripping and rebuilding

unreal cedar
#

Ok, so not running the original code at all.

fathom wadi
#

nope

foggy path
#

I just trusted it when @minor remnant said it was UE1 running with UE4 rendering lol

celest musk
fathom wadi
#

this sounds strange.

foggy path
#

so uh, apparently that's what the dev said

#

:D

fathom wadi
torpid star
celest musk
#

someone even converted the whole thing to PDF apparently

graceful sequoia
unreal cedar
torpid star
#

yeah not arguing either case, just a statement.

unreal cedar
#

they're basically running two games

foggy path
#

apparently yeah

unreal cedar
#

the original game has been hacked up to send data to UE4 to render.

#

"live link" but for a game instead of a DCC tool ๐Ÿ˜›

fathom wadi
torpid star
#

it is very similar, that's true

bleak remnant

day 1 of c++

#

cant wait to expand more into this language

#

(Not copied I made this alone)

#

I didn't post in c++ because that is UE only

#

LOL I'll try my best not to be pressured after all trying to get it to a hobby then be able to go to college for it

echo flower
#

Yeah LearnCpp is one of the best resources

bleak remnant
#

haha

#

Yeah the difference is day in night

#

literally after a few hours I am able to actually write something

#

after about like 5 hours on watching those I'd probably still be stuck

#

doesn't help I doze off alot when watching vids (can't help it sadly)

#

also totally off topic but is their a website similar to this one but html or js? My friend was interested

celest musk
#

hundreds

bleak remnant
#

any in particular you would recommend? Or will any do

celest musk
#

no, i've learn that like 20 years ago

#

when frontpage was garbage and i didnt have money for dreamweaver (which was a bit less garbage :D)

#

apparently dreamweaver is still a thing (but not sure if i would recommend it)

bleak remnant
#

lol interesting

fathom wadi
#

I was a dreamweaver fan but I never used the auto-building features. It was just a nice notepad++ with a built in FTP. Easy to write extensions for too as they were just javascript

celest musk
#

today as a jetbrains fanboi i would probably go with webstorm ๐Ÿ˜„

#

but that also looks like it would rather teach what each of the html elements does

#

not how to actually create a layout (which also involves css)

celest musk

is the used one shipped by amazon and with warranty? (otherwise i would invest the $7 and go for the new one)

deep glen

bleak remnant
#

it says free returns so i think so

celest musk
#

also check if you can return the used one, then after receiving it you should check the smart status of the SSD

#

ok

#

probably save to go with "used"

bleak remnant

thanks for advice

then post the result of the smart report in #hardware and ask if someone could take a look

Anyone have any suggestions for what I should try to create today while learning c++? This was my script yesterday that I was working on, it's a calculator, so something harder than that but not borderline impossible for me

cursive crypt

Get roasted for bugs.

#

That some lisp calculator, lol

#

Maybe try to parse the operations now.

#

i.e. interpret the input: 2 * 4

bleak remnant
#

or are you talking about something else

proud jay
#

fizzbuzz time

proud jay
#

calculating compound interest

#

check if number is prime

#

find palindromes in a list of words

#

or anagrams

cursive crypt
#

eeh, just parsing the input would be fine, kek

#

Considering the current code is buggy.

#

binary to decimal converter and back

#

generate fibonnaci

Okay, maybe w/o parenthesis. Easier.

Use functional programming too. Monads.

Recently learned that too many ppl have no f clue about op precedence in general math.

lol embarrassing I actually didn't read it when I asked that ๐Ÿ˜‚

well there's different precedencies being thought though

#

is that the word

#

always use brackets

#

that's clear

cursive crypt
#

Well, depends. During the old catholic times, the precedence were different.

bleak remnant
#

also is rand() on c++ truly random? I remember that in VB it wasn't (using that for school)

proud jay
#

of course not

cursive crypt

For you, it is.

but good enough

mb I phrased wrong

#

like would i get the scame values everytime if I relaunched the program

proud jay
#

or use a wall of lava lamps like a decent person

bleak remnant
#

so use the other link you sent if I was planning to make like a seed for minecraft for example?

the question is, who really cares in the context of programming exercises
