I don't think quiet was there before
If the issue persists with default bios I'll see what the quiet changes
goodluck on your journey young man! 🍇
wasn't that possible with nitro?
Still has free nitro which I'm too lazy to redeem
it's a trap
they want to lure you into a subscription
if it's the "free" nitro which EGS had a week ago
you can
but with nitro you could use it anywhere 😄
no?
no just copy pasted your grapes
but I don't think it works with special emoji though
like 
i don't see it tho
that's status, very different
probably linux
yeah doesnt work
sad
yea, which points to it being a unicode icon
😄 .
am first
forever second place, how fitting yet frustrating
gonna roll with the grape for now
@deep copper will be happy about that
Yep
Catface Motorcycle
Catface Spacerocket Catface Sunglasses Catface Serpentdragon Catface Laptop Catface Purplehumanoid
you having a stroke?
I think they were describing the emoji
but doesn't seem entirely accurate
like that last one is definitely a ninja, not a purple humanoid
It's a blue humanoid
or stroke is also a possibility

you are probably more happier than me xD
that fills ben with joy, i mean
don't start about filling ben
I did not fill ben
not yet
no wait you did , see he is happy already
would rather be filled with joy than with grapes
what about 3d printed ones?
can you 3d print joy?
affectionateUser has quite the talent, hijacking conovs into the realm of weirdness
what weirdness?"
i AM reread the convo #lounge message
dieter did it this time 
git pull --based
who are not having a stroke these days
curious, was "who doesn't these days" not right enough? 🤔
it depends
I hate English
who could refer to a group
it sounds like you are going to open a big can of worms
also what you said is not right
cause aren't is from being
so it would be who isn't these days
yes
how it is now
should it be is instead of are
the statement is now explicit, boring, tiring.. like c++

same, but then again i have never loved any language specifically
the language of love?
i don't love that either, it doesn't gives me what i want, ever
can you remove this
a hug from you
if you go through such lengths to add an arrow in an image pointing at it, sure !
lol
so basically, not sure if i got it because of language of love 🤔
when you do enough c++ doing such things like that won't be an effort for you
so that's what pointers are all about 🤔
that poor int, so much anxiety
someone posted this yesterday on #cpp and whenever I create a pointer this is coming to my mind now
your mind is pointing at it
My mind is floating point
i should be working, but instead im playing with annoying beats again :p
The important is, you enjoy it.
true dat
So... 2.5 kg of watermelon are 150 gr of chocolate as kcal.
... did that goat kill itself?
Finally got myself the water bottle, the T-shirts, a smol
button. No ninja badges tho, but that's fine.
Decided to give away the other one to one of my neighbour because I haven't used UE5 seriously lol.
The shirts do fit tho.
I only have unrealfest 2019 shirt 😭
Well yes of course
I often wear those zip tie hoodies and just left it open all the time
Though the fabric is rather thin compared to other of my T-shirts, even the anime ones
Iirc 100 nicks ago you were Hoodie somethin
How many Nicks are there 🤔
Sounds loresome
#lorash
Why did Lorash switch accounts btw?
!8ball is that looooooooooooooooo dead?
@cursive crypt, :8ball: Don't count on it.
Old account got compromised
even @sand oxide is dead
Ah I see.
<insert name> is Dead! Long Live <insert name>!
@proud jay is Dead! Long Live @proud jay !
what's the name of this doctor?
@soft night, :8ball: Better not tell you now.
!8ball you like metahumans?
@soft night, :8ball: Yes.
!8ball you like metabotts?
@soft night, :8ball: Signs point to yes.
!8ball are you human?
@proud jay, :8ball: Ask again later.
!8ball are you human?
@proud jay, :8ball: Ask again later.
bruh moment
!8ball was he jocking with you?
@cursive crypt, :8ball: My sources say no.
Gentle manny
!8ball are you human?
@proud jay, :8ball: My sources say no.
!8ball you like dieter?
@soft night, :8ball: You may rely on it.
!8ball you like finland?
@proud jay, :8ball: You may rely on it.
ok now you're getting repetitive manny
remember manny is self-aware so tehre might be a tease too
How bored are you?
Dieter: yes
see through 😳
atleast you stop with the grapes xD
Not enough UE in his life.
No. Just no.

Muf grapes
i have being try to scan so that beard show up but not yet success with my scanner
photoscan?
3d scan
you have to close the top lid harder on your face
with my kinect v2
Well, beard... why not?
It is hard prolly to capture as it is so... hard to find features on it.
So, you can put some markers on it.
haha, yeah... well, put something on it. Looks like it sees it as texture even.
Beards weird
paint it with magnetic paint or something and make detectors for that
Put chalk in it so its less reflective
Other option is to wrap it in skin color cloth/rag something. And add it later.
Like they do with hair.
shave and model the beard in 3d
make a clay model of your face and scan that
or put something on your face to make a mold of it and then pour some molten metal so it freezes as the real face
then scan that
Cut a beard off a metahuman
ask for beard donations or wig ? 🤔
I wish this was a real prank and he documented it
because it would be fucking hilarious lol

and not enough #cpp in your life @cursive crypt
Too much noise over there.
breakpoint*
dieter our English teacher
it's a c++ joke
breaking point is correct english 😭
dieter our c++ inside jokes teacher*
I don't even remember having watchpoint 🤔
As I said, too much noise - useless information. Chat & memes, the rare knowledge - are fine.
Too much code drains the brains
Brain the code.
what grape thing?
just say it's too fast paced and hard to follow when you can't even check the chat
is this a response to our smol data tables, dragonHell and landscape on tick
are you guys evolving something to toxic as us
instead of the short peps you prefer to type that long description xD lovely
dragonHell will judge you
Lounge has the superior physics debates
grapes were brought by ben
Just... kids
rider kid?
thats me
We determined crayons have no up axis
Hog rider
and 🧻 has undefined axis
PHYS_Crayon
depends on who modeled them
That kinda cool
imagine you click on this url to see what it is and it's, that
no dieter, grape ben, not me
xD
discord sometimes doesn't preview gifs
I think it's if it thinks it's innapropriate
checks out for this case
that's the spirit
!8ball why are grapes?
@pearl elk, :8ball: Very doubtful.
!8ball you like grapes?
@soft night, :8ball: Reply hazy, try again.
!8ball you like lemonade?
@proud jay, :8ball: Cannot predict now.
!8ball Do you have addiction to grapes?
@quasi mantle, :8ball: Cannot predict now.
!8ball grapes are life, right?
@celest musk, :8ball: Yes.
that's grape
that bunny doesn't even have grapes wtf
two different tick tock watermarks though xD
eyeliner? I barely know her
seriously why are you only graping me xD
idk what you are talking about
grapelinghooks?
the grapes, why are you adding them to my messages only xD ben was here you didn't grape him
I thought you were fan of grapes
is that poop
Mfw when scrolling around YouTube then suddenly found a 12 or 14 or whatever 10 or something (IDK DEPENDS THEIR VOICES) year old knows how to use Unreal
oh no, we have a baconator amongst our midst
I only know blue balls
I only know chocolate salty balls

hey bsp, set your name to the max letter limit so his message expands 😜
🧈🧈🥓
I'll show you something that expands
xD
I like big but...tered bacon

they are a grape
Impossible
you get it all the time
anything other than grapes xD
salmiakki 🤢
this is why noone likes finland
that really looks like black paint
I only like my grapes fermented
i only like stuff without grapes for now
we should only give Valve money by buying their new games
i still have a 3 digit steam account 😮
valve makes games still?
3 digit wallet or 3 digit game count?
as in steam account from 2008
wait
no it was 2003?
thats still 4 digits
she looks hugable
i don't know man, that expression looks like it's out for blood
that hug might be the last
gingers are always huggable.
how is that 3 digits?
I want to make a game as good as Diablo Immortal, does anyone want to join my team?
it's called a slot machine
what? raven?
if you make the game and the team does nothing, i am in
or worse... grapes
sure can we only add the base game tho and make the whole entire game based on a marketplace?
just the main menu
don't do anything
all you get.
I'll do the game the team can work on the monetization
ship grapes
more value than diablo immortal
grapes are the mid game currency
GrapeCoin?
Menshin Umpact?
pearls are the later game currency\
grapes are end game currency
grapes get you killed
pearls as in marbles?
xD
dont
she actually falls down like 2 seconds after this gif
Depends on size of person I'd imagine 
xD does that friends discord name start with A?
oh man i got to find the video now
Reporter cheats on grape stomping article, falls down, making bizarre howling noises while she struggles to catch her breath.
lol
: 🍇 well, alone it can't have any
LMFAO
or just one
explanation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NE0fQCTn3NE
I love watching the kid who is 12 or 14 or 16 or a minor IDK (who knows Unreal but doesn't know about Geometry) making his own FNAF Game but SUDDENLY AN NFT GAME AD!!! I CANNOT STAND IT ANYMORE!!!
Web 3.0 is the future
we're up to web5.0 now
get with the trends
before or after he drops acid?
decentralized internet
Bring back to the past!!
idk why everyone wants to put everything on the block chain
Im running 1/100th of the internet from here
I get 10c per gif, why you think I promote gif spam 😛
almost that time of midsummer
have you heard web 5.0?
what if we 5.0 is a weeb
It will be crypto web
will it have nanite and lumen
nft url
jake dorsey seems develop web 5
What's the average in belgium?
That's hot, but not that hot in asia
wtf is belgia
belly
Wait, wrong, nvm~
bulging belly
cool
literally
Yup~
wtf is belelelelegia
did you not get tired of the grapes, dieter?
Belgaisagia
you have oddly high endurance
xD an NFT implant 😄 nvm, nfc
A kick will do.
DID I HEAR NFT?!!?
NFC is diffent than NFT
Oh okay
grapes give energy
i cant wait for bitcoin to drop to 15 k again
Thought every nation ends with an -ia, russia, britanoa, germania, belgia, americania~
inb4 he checks out at the supermarkt cashier as a package of toilet paper which randomly has the same ID
everything except russia is wrong
antarticaia
everything except grapes is wrong
Turikiyeiye
No mango is
Grapeaia
well someone could invent NFC/RFID what include NFT
ia
i bet someone already did slap the NFT sticker on it
grapia
bitcoinia
Not sophisticated enough, grapeaieaieaeia
graiaiiaiaiaiaiaiaia
ai to end of all
no point keeping the P in it
have you heard of cryptoland though
Cryptoland is the world’s first crypto island project.
This 3D animation narrates an imaginary story of a crypto degen who arrives in this unique crypto island where Connie, the coin-shaped soul of Cryptoland, welcomes him and tours him around.
To understand the meaning behind the jokes, here is a video list:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oh...
manny ai
what did i just read?
OH DEAR LORD
no
he's telling you to go to the toilet when you need to
yes
Culture
this is actually a fever dream
NOT THE DAD FROM INSIDE OUT WITHOUT A BEARD AGAIN!
Oh my eyes
Coke Zero better
dieter is 2/3rds diet
just float it
just grape it
Oh my!
I have to grape for a little while to confirm my victory
California is going back to the Wild West!
Dear developers, does it really still matter whether we use single or float in the current age?
what do you mean with single
HOW DARE YOU
you mean single precision
I forgot to add double~
that's just float with a stupid name
quadruple float
i will just come back when you forfet about grapes
remind me when I get a 3d printer to print a grape for you
that's for Ben
xD
Good way to enrage a dev during compilation waiting time~
my ass prints grapes
Purple ones?
depends which flavour vodka I had the night before
Methinks thatsa good prints
jar jar good prints
interesting
I head IE is RIP
IE is rip since over 20 years
Brave
yeah I used it for a while
wouldn't have thought that chrome has such a high market share....
guess that includes mobile devices?!
chrome has had an insane market share for a while now
Dont think so.
Microsoft is now ending Internet Explorer
they ended it like 20 years ago
because every fricking webdev had to add special cases for that special kid
as they (the browsers) couldn't agree on how to interpret a standard 😄
and overall it just was horrible in my experience
compared to firefox/opera (when chrome wasnt a thing)
@proud jay i use firefox.. it has some bugs tho .. some pretty nasty
had to turn off video accellerator cuz if i watched a vid my card would go to 100% and wouldnt drop if FF was closed
hanging pointer
it dropped when taskmanager was open... pretty weird thought it was some cryptominer but it wasnt
They have never foreseen someone would like to close the browser.
ahh yea mayB it was only when i closed FF
reminds me, i got duck duck on Android recently and i like the burning fire animation after searching anything and closing, it feels like i did something :D
why am i not surprised that someone like you tries to avoid tracking
Is that Mass Effect?
alien invasion?
I think you need to go see a doctor
fake news
all for great metahuman scan hehe
funny how you could perhaps make mountain of face scan what then also are metahumans
that ain't my D I M E

Does anyone know what happens if you use gpl v2 maps in a game? Can you sideload c++ dlls to get around releasing the code? do you have to release assets? It's something I'm comfortable releasing for free, but can't release all the source nor assets... Or is using GPL completely banned? (Saw some forum post to that effect) Its not like its code either so, hrm, confusing
- You need to redistribute that work under the same license.
- You need to "Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code" of that work.
Basically, only LGPL can save you. Or offer your users an way to access that on their own.
That how I understand it. If you talk UE game, no bueno. Incompatible.
However, if they just tackle your product just on their own machines, you can offer them to download and install that gpl thingie. Basically, you pass the responsibility to them.
Maps? Like world assets? Can you not ship with multiple licences, one for your game and one for the maps?
As long as he links to gpl he must release under gpl compatible.
Mentioning that, because "dll" something was the word.
However, gpl non-code assets are... unusual. As long they are not mandatory, I think you can redistribute them under gpl without issues. They don't contain logic, just data for visualization etc.
Aye, it is like gpl art, or the fonts maybe. There is exception for fonts e.g.
Anyway, CC are much more sane for non-code stuff.
UE assets under gpl is brainf*
I think by Epic's eula, you can use them only with UE. And in fact, are prolly already covered by some license. You can't redistribute them under another.
Like .map files
I'm just curious where the maps came from in the first place?
What are .map files?
They don't exist in UE?
ah its the quake maps romero released
but starting to think easier to just make similar maps myself, the nostalgia tho 🙂
Well, at least you'd only need a single texture: brown.
😛
Ah... if you keep them in their original format i.e. just reinterpret them, you should be fine. And really, I would just pinpoint ppl to install themselves. You will be clean.
I'd remaster them
hmm, true tho, could build a .map reader and fixer upper plugin 🙂
If you like that way. Nobody will care I suppose.
Bethesda are imps when it comes to stuff like this
lol... When unsure, ask them. But less involved, the better.
yeah, well, more of a thought experiment, doubtful anything comes of it 🙂
i don't, i love being stalked, it was suggested by makoto and luos here that it's cool
Begone then. Wasting our time 😛
Tbh tho, I think whether you write reinterpreter or make some of them yourself - might be the same time, lol
Hey, it IS lounge 🙂
Just make sure you mention "Inspired by" not "Based on" or "Remakes of"
They won't really have a leg to stand on.
I'll just use dungeon architect to generate them, quake maps aren't exactly super complicated singleplayer wise
Add an f Bethesda at startup. For inspiration.
uuh... well, I suppose we have different view for a map.
I'll try to be more subtle 🙂
just a little curious how an old quake style level would feel and look in unreal 5. But it'd probably be easy to start adding to much stuff to it until it lost that feeling
There was a recent demo of Hexen.
Just watch it.
And for Quake there are some too. Most likely.
awww, yeah I saw, I like the eldritch horror style tho
Hi guys, can you recommend any resources outlining universal logic behind common game systems/mechanics? Like schematics behind what should be behind a functioning gun? I know you can just break it down on your own or look up someones work, but I wouldn't want to try and reinvent the wheel (,s?) if there are some widely known best practices (unless there aren't cuz people would rather keep them to themselves/within a group). Think of it like asking for what's the meta on gameplay design.
shootergame for c++
I dont think theres any universal logic, its very implementation/genre specific if you talk about general game design
there is no real logic behind gameplay design... its more like coding logic and practises
not genre specific if u ask me... sidescroller is much like a shooter
same logic applies
I did like this one from a more game feel POV https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJdEqssNZ-U&t=0s
INDIGO Classes 2013: Jan Willem Nijman is 50% of indie power house Vlambeer. He talks about 'The Art of Screenshake'. Why is it that one game plays great and another, similar game feels terrible?
Bitterballen?
Rather have some Snert 🙂
not in the summer
But then you want Pannenkoek
In Sweden its so bizarre, every thursday every swedish food lunchplace server peasoup and pancakes as a combo. You're supposed to have Arrak as well, but alas no such luck most times
ahh looks nice
I'm so glad I'm already in Lounge for once
Like regular waffle.
I mean, these have different names around the world.
My fav is with fruits and cream and stuff.
we have potato waffles in the UK but we also have the diabetes inducing ones too
potatoes are kinda high glycemic tho? Isnt that some merch trick?
Anyway, these cool.
I live on potatoes
Nice
well potatoes, rice and pasta
Carbs, huh
potatoes are the goodstuff
Some oil too is needed. And salt, kek
I dont know why I settled on those three. I do eat other things, meat etc. But those are the staples.
ahh, potato-based pancakes are a big "old swedish food" thing, Rågrakor
someone new in the discord UE Community Team. What do we do? /nervous
we hug it out
skye eden in the yellow section
Ah... dunno, true maybe
i allways do keep a pak of pancake flour in house... only thing needed to make it is milk wich i often have... or beer wich i allways have
its only chaos in here. Everywhere else its chill, full of people ignoring all the new questions :p
imma tag when lounge is at a lowpoint
yeah thats true. everyone in here is a slacker for sure
Also: Oven pancake is divine, easy to make and food for a week
Maybe I should make a game called "Ten thousands Pancakes AND DEATH"
thats a yorkshire pudding
If I had time I'd find a pancake mesh and use niagara to spawn 10,000 of them
lots of things are circles, but you can't eat all circles with syrup
Someone was selling 10 nanite donuts on the MP for 💰
I made a donut once
but the question is... do you flip ur pancakes with a spatula?
Blessed
ooh I do need me some Donut NFTs
Hey... yours are even better.
yeah I killed it with that donut
I mean... you may have made some money.
i can flip em... but it went wrong a few times
I made a Bender model I was going to sell at some point but I got sidetracked. It was almost done
I just dont do pancakes. I wait others to do them for me.
Is there a bread shader? 🙂
so now i just leave my flips and tricks for when im not cooking 😛
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCTHU7JavCY Bender in Blender 😄
With the amount of Blender donuts produced, you will think it is builtin mesh and shader.
I want a rigged model of the Clamps Futurama mafia robot, great game "One Robot - Many problems - One Solution"
Maybe a Crime sim told from the POV of the mafia robots
Angels with dirty clamps
"The Wheels of Crime"
Goodrobots
oooh
The Clampfather
even better
have to work yourself up in the robot mafia hierarchy
clamp a few guys
Donnie Clampo. The story of an FBI robot who goes undercover disguised as a used oil fence
"Rustface" The only thing I got in this world is my clamps, and my word, and I don't break 'em for nobody.
This turned into a nice night of Quiplash 🙂
It's the second best thing you can do with friends while drunk
When I was at school I had memorised the entire of Bugsy Malone. So when they said they were going to do a school play of it, I thought I was a shoe in for a good role. But they gave me a background extra position. Which is really odd because I was one of the better singers in the school choir. So I thought fuggit and never turned up to the practices.
True story also, my wife went for a position in Bugsy Malone and she said "which role do you think I went for?" and I said "Tallulah because you're a whore". And I was right. Not about the whore thing, that was just a joke between us :p
Is this where your merciless quest to prove yourself originated?
It all makes sense now
no I had no confidence at school. I was bullied and the teachers I had were all pathetic at their job. It was only when I got to college I decided to prove myself.
I still haven't proven myself to a level I'm happy with. But in order to do so I need a bunch of money to employ some people. That has never seemed to happen. It's like money doesn't like to be in my possession.
Yeah nothing beats being employed to someone who needs to prove themselves 🙂
Buddha says: true acceptance can only come from within
well I see your point with that, but I mean in terms of being a team lead and producer of a game studio.
I have enough Unreal Knowledge to guide a team and build some good stuff, but I can't do it all by myself. I need to work to feed my family. I tried doing the solo game thing and it's a recipe for burnout
well, The gaming industry is the Benoni of careers. There's better ways to make money 🙂
There is no better job in the world than the one you love to do as a hobby. Because then you never work a day in your life. It's all just gravy
Gamedev is a way of life
Yeah, but I work with something I love during the day, just slightly less. Then I buy assets for the money all night 🙂
i have heard if you get a hobby as a job then that hobby becomes a chore and you don't enjoy it :/
guess it can go both ways
ah so it's about just a mere hobby vs a passionate hobby stuff
I do Unreal on my days off, in my spare time, etc. I find it is always interesting when you have the freedom to learn new things. If I was to work in a meat factory like EA Games, just grinding the same task for 2 years, I'd probably feel like it was a chore because I wasn't expanding my skillsets and peaking my own interests.
that's true, you often can't persue your topic of interest in the same field
I'm so glad I didnt get a green card and moved to Austin to work in the game industry when I was younger 🙂 And I do think working with "real programming" gives you a real headsup. Most gamedevs are pretty inexperienced in managing complexity
what do you do rn? i only have working as consultant for 20 years in your notes
i mean as in, instead of game industry route back then, what did you pick instead?
Most game devs I've worked with don't even do the paperwork for the design element. Project management is sorely lacking in the indie dev scene. One advantage of AAA is they do have their paperwork down, even if you are swimming in it at some point and have to do systems analysis for when employees use the bathroom just to know the average human work hours lost :p
I started first in the dotcom business when it was as hottest, just before it died 🙂 Then been consulting ever since. YOU HAVE NOTES ON PEOPLE??! 🙂
Good and bad big companies have lots of bureacracy
but then you watch a documentary about them making some halo death match levels and its like... more meetings than going to the moon
And design by committee is the death of all good things
The worst are the meetings where it's just people reading off slides for the first half and with no actual expectation that you will have ANY action items from them. Just reading them to read them.
whats worse than that is a design by committee that is vitoed by someone who thinks they know more than those with the experience.
ah, that's nice ! 😄
added
and yeah, because it would feel quite rude to forget what someone mentioned before, specially if it's something important about their lives xD
Ahh, I have those frequently, last gig mandatory for all employees/consultants, two hours, reading english (poorly) of a slide, about stuff going on in any part of this huge company "Oh this factory in Brazil is running low on spare parts" interesting
Then again, getting paid for redditing is not so bad
I hope you didn't forget that I once sat on a pen I left on my seat and pierced my ass so now I fart in stereo. That requires a note if you ask me.
I hope thats not true
It's not. But I did once get into a fight with an Acupuncture specialist and stabbed him. Now he feels better than ever.
xD i don't know about that 😆 but i do know that you made a passphrase audio clip for encryption like 20 years ago for a tutor
modulate, demodulate. I miss those days. Which is why I listen to techno now.
I once stood up sideways into a tree branch while picking flowers, piercing my eardrum
there's something for your notes
I used to play the eardrums. But they kicked me out of the band so I joined a fishing club and now I play bass guitar.
speaking of music. Time for my daily hour of piano. have fun
I hate my spine. It holds me back
Todays Kaizen (tm) Go ahead and setup all the plugins that should be enabled by default. And set your default settings so I dont have to do the same stupid changes for the billionth time
Why you cant(?) set a plugin to be enabled by default from within the editor is beyond me
you can edit the plugin descriptor to do it I guess. Or you can edit the .uproject file directly and enable it if it's in the plugin folder
yeah I know, but like, not why just a checkbox in the plugins window
Probably on the bottom of the backlog
I don't create so many new projects for this to cross my mind.
A new project per day keeps productivity at bay
you can add it as an engine plugin in that case.
WHAT PART OF IN EDITOR WAS UNCLEAR 🙂
its the little conveniences sometimes
This is me hostage negotiating with my team to make libraries of helper functions all over again "Why do we need those little functions, they're so simple to write"
if it's enabled in the engine, then it's enabled in the editor by default for all projects using that engine tho
yeah, I mean I know, but no reason not to have an UI for that
Yeah, super cool
also u can copy project settings text file
or copy some text from it and replace the new1
also there are template projects.. like 3rd person template... you can create ur own
i still wunna make a blender template with cube and camera 🙂
mayB some custom editor controlls
but editor utility BPs are the best
C++ is the best
Tfw spending hour-two thinking over some algo, just to solve it with one line of code, dropping 10 other lines.
typical programmers, coming up with thousands different reasons and methods, instead of adding some simple ux 🙂
UX must run on something lol
might not have visual open. so BPs can totally be faster 😛
well for me
cuz i often open projects w/o visual
also hot reload 😛
the polls and ratings are so much better than steam uyser reviews
on epic store that is
@robust shale editor utility widget
check that out
I use it to select or place stuff
all sorts of stuff
my guess its super dead the chat
automation is super dope tho
in blender i try automate as much aswell
If steam valued their reviews they would find a way to get rid of template reviews
Difficulty:
[] nana can play
[] game will play nana
Graphics:
[] poopoopeepee
[] 4kpoopoopeepee
they should go under the guise of "reviews are higher quality and more accurate when players share their personal views and experiences over filling out a subjective template that doesn't provide good insight into the product your considering purchasing, the steam store, developers, and customers all benefit from user created reviews, not user filled out reviews"
Does anybody think ue4 and ue5 userbase will be split in 2 in the future?
Or will everyone move to ue5?
I can't see ue5 being ready for game production soon somehow.
Movie and render maybe, but games I'm not sure
Has been ready for game production?
I LOVED the first Dragons Dogma. I think I remember it didn't get a good reception but I remember playing it and being blown away by just about everything. I'm not going to look at ANYTHING about DD2 for a kickass blind play
Well, to be fair, epic got full access to their own engine, of course they'll be able to use it.
I mean is it ready for "commoner" usage?
Normal developer that is not part of big tech.
I don't doubt big tech or hollywood's ability to use ue5, but what about dev with normal budgets, either pro or hobbyist
Are you working in a faang and faang-like company?
yea, my fav. action rpg gameplay-game ever
I might be using the term a bit freely, but mostly those with big backing of cash and resource
Why wouldn't UE5 work for regular joe developer if UE4 does? 🤔
So far, I have obviously seen how strong the marketing have been for ue5, but I can't actually see where the actual market is.
Where is ue5 being targeted to actually?
Yeah I don't really follow the logic here. UE5 is just a new version
Well, this is just a personal analysis, but the world doesn't feel very stable economically, miners seems to competing with gamers for tech resources, while ue5 looks like it require a hardware update cycle that is closer to what 2000-2010 is having, instead of the current condition
I dunno, my PC is 6 years old and I can run my projects on UE5 just fine
I'm not trying to use Lumen or RTX mind you
But epic are promoting lumen and nanite for the future, are they not?
Yes, just like raytracing has been promoted for the future
but it doesn't mean you have to use them, or you can't make games without them
Are the hardware distributed nicely to the mass yet?
Ue5 without nanite or lumen would technically be ue4 wouldn't it?
That's not what epic marketing team been selling to the internet.
There's a lot of new features and the editor UI is nicer etc.
besides just Nanite and Lumen
but you have to understand that saying "we made it nicer to use" isn't great marketing
of course they will sell it with the cool big wow features
nobody cares that they moved some buttons around which now makes it easier to find some button users like to press
Only on that? Not on money and resource?
well if you have a 20 year old potato you probably should stick to Godot lol
even my friend's GTX 970 runs UE5 at tolerable performance
Higher quality graphics require better design and QA, more things to polish from a game designer's perspective, I dunno, the current situation feels slightly ungrounded
again nobody is forcing you to do that
I'm making a game that looks like Duke Nukem 3D in UE5 lol
Btw, just to make things clear, the actual question was whether the userbase might be split into 2, the rest is just conjecture to point my thoughts about why I think so.
I doubt it. Some users will stay in UE4 for their existing projects but that's about it, I don't really see any reason to not use UE5 for new projects if it's stable enough (and I think it seems to be as of 5.0.2)
is there anything that doesn't run? lol
Well, who knows, maybe you're right, though personally I'm still a bit skeptical about it, at least looking at the situation at the moment, but we'll see.
you could just install it and see how it goes
it's just a version upgrade with a bunch of new features
porting my 4.27 projects to ue5 was literally a matter of clicking "switch engine version" and that was that
I already have ue5, I'm a marketplace seller, need to support the latest version after all.
If you check my previous posts, I wasn't really talking about the engine capability actually, I think it have interesting features for the future, but is the current market ready for the promoted features?
It's more about the prospect of whether what the marketing team have been promoting on the net can actually be absorbed by the targeted user or not.
Would hate to see it being too advanced for the current time, ps3 case analogy.
More or less, this is merely a concern actually, still bit skeptical at the moment.
Ah
Honestly it's the cool features that sell shit like this, I bet there's a whole new wave of users coming in because of Nanite in particular
MetaHumans and character stuff work better in UE5 as well which is a key feature for a lot of users
As it is the current most recent stable version of the engine, there is really no reason to start a new project on UE4 unless you have some very specific reason for it
the only reason I can think of is 4.27 might be more stable, or because --as a seller-- there are people still on ue4
Yeah, if you have a sufficiently complex UE4 project it might not be as straightforward to upgrade
But then again, I don't know if a lot of new plugins are added into projects that are so far along already
not to mention if you are on ue4, not all the meshes you have will work fine with lumen (when moving over)
I just turn it off because it's too heavy anyway lol
true
Personally I stayed in 4.27 just because my project has quite few things going on already.
Also 5.0 doesn't seem to be a confident build, gotta wait for 5.1 or 5.2 when things are more set in stone.
With a glue.
Or any adhesive strong enough to bond floor tiles
in ue5
Asking in #lounge, expect lounge-y answers ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Consider asking on #ue5-general
Do they make Chinese troops in God mode?
Nope there's none
If Squad is released in mainland China, surely they'll make Chinese faction the God mode. They can't die and can pick any weapon with unlimited ammo.
Lmao Glory of Great CCP
also they going to add Parachute and Fast rope and more and more vehicles and stuff
China is right, everyone else is lying
China when the milsim game announced there going to add Chinese faction (its offensive to Chinese for some reason)
Well, with milsim games, you can make Chinese faction lose, which would be defamation to CCP
Josh was a clever boy... what a shame...
scale from 66 to 76
Wonder what happened in 2009 to 2011
lootboxes? I dunno.
I like how they made the framerate of this video match the framerate of the launcher

Nice on theory... however, I hope they start to fix that Launcher at last lol
How do i find some amazing programmers to work with
Read the #instructions
Well, if you don't bother to investigate on your own, why should we?
There are ton of ppl
gl
it just seems like the same as any other gamedev discord
any directions where i can find the real-deal people?
💸
they are already busy making it probably
i see
so you either pay to get them or , use what's available
I don't know what a "real-deal" person is, but nobody from a AAA company is spending their time talking to the slavering gaming public. There's quite a few people here who are making real games, but they're decisively indie. They even talk and help people at times. But consistently? You'd need to find an egotist who accepts money.
The problem with talking to the slavering gaming public is not an ego or elitism problem, it's just that Public Relations and Non-Disclosure Agreements make it so complicated.
sure, im just looking for some unicorn gamedev
AAA ppl are boring AF anyway
im looking for some real as*hole
lmao
atleast this shouldn't be that difficult
yeah but they have to be real good
so you want someone super good who was thrown out of the industry because they are, weird? what exactly are you offering them?
🤔
I mean the only way you will get someone really good is if you pay them a lot
But but... muh great idea
i doubt that
if they have skill, someone paying higher would hire them
No one wants to work for free and waste their skill, they have bills to pay
theres lots of people who already made enough money
then why would they work on someone else's idea now?
This is borderline trolling 🤔
they should have enough stuff they want to do with that money
like hire others to make a "real game"
THIS. IS. LOUNGE.
really hard to emphasise that last syllable
On other hand, If you pay with some promising crypto nft - maybe there will be a deal.
its more like you guys are trolling me, but i get that
It's still not clear if you want to make games or develop a social circle. If it's the latter, put in a good word for us when you make it big. ❤️
Trying to help here. Money, crypto, nft, liquorice drops at least?
I don't think I would ever work for free while having a possibility of getting payed for the same thing no matter how thick my bank account was
^ And that is why paid mods are a terrible idea.
maybe ull get there one day!
