someday, we should all strive to work for free!
Clearly, you are so ego, prolly not good dev too.
im just joshin around a bit, ofc i get all the points
I'm sure we all do, but indirectly.
im gonna keep trying elsewhere i guess, still no pointers?
C++ has a lot of pointers
I'm a pro Jinga player and a 2 times lounging champion
2 times? ๐ค Who was the jury
alright, take care guys
Jinga is nice tho
goodluck!
I remember when a Fractured Space dev posted their wips in this discord. That was nice.
Me, I was paid to be one tho
That some breaking name
sus
Nah I would still be a moderator here, you ain't getting rid of me that easily ๐
Oh I liked that game, played it ages ago with a friend, is that game still alive?
so you are saying you will stay with us forever <3
The creep at it again
Lmao
Servers closed sadly. It's kind of broken even if you do bot games locally. Maybe if you violated [Rule 5] it would be playable.
The devs all got hired for greater things though.
Ah, that kinda sucks, it was a fun game
I still remember my hs french teacher - all effort pays off.
So, even if nothing comes out, you have improved & learned.
Well I don't see myself leaving soo ๐
thats a blue colored man in the emoji, no other implication
anyone aware of a plugin which finds duplicates of assets, e.g.: textures which are the same
... ๐
How do you even end up with duplications? ๐ค
Haven't seen Laura around in a while
didn't get my daily dose of sass
@sand oxide family is missing you
well i just had one asset of epic which included the whole twinmotion automotive materials package, so i had everything duplicated
oof
but it would also be nice to merge all textures which are the same, e.g. a lot of assets ship with a texture which is just white, no reason to load that multiple times to vram
if i could migrate them to all use the same texture
Well making a tool to do that would definitely be possible but not sure if something like that exists already
the white texture is an example, theres probably lot of other common masks/blanks
Frankly, you need to have a look at yourself. White texture? Maybe fine to remove. But what if one is 256 but the other 1024px?
that doesn't really matter
What if one is used actually in the material, others is just placeholder?
She has been missing since three days
256x256 of white is still white on the same UV space ๐
I suspect coroutines did something to her
That's kinda suspicious ๐ค
I'm saying auto clean up solutions are like these Shareware PC Cleaner & Turbo Boost Apps sold for 30$ on internet
Either got a job offer with insane amount of hourly rate from discord or coroutines did something to her
not necessarily
but it would probably take a lot of time to make actual image based comparsion for textures
Either got a job offer with insane amount of hourly rate from discord
She mentioned she would leave in that case ๐
Betting on coroutines
same
as you would have to compare each texture against each other
Well just had to look up her last message to get my dose of sass
maybe someone hired laura based on your meme image rates
like for 5$ hourly?
Still haven't forgotten those
you should've kept them higher, what if people think it's real?!
I remember seeing something, but I can't find the name now.
I guess experienced senior rate is around $50
if they have previous shipped game in the industry
an hour?
yes
I've done some tooling where you search the asset registry for all assets of a type. IIRC textures have the added import meta data available so comparing resolution wouldn't be difficult.
that sounds reasonable
if not, its around 30-40
i guess that really depends on the task
That's too low
but i would assume rather $100 than $50
$50 per hour comes out to $102k per year (if 40 hour work week)
I've seen salaried job posting for sr level at higher than that. Contract rate has to be higher than salary because benefits, taxes, etc
I did some quick HR task for a previous job (around ~1 year ago) and that was what they offered for an indie project
Probably for AAA its multiplied with 1.5 or something
are you senior game dev?
Don't forget who is from where before fighting over the actual sum.
wait a minute, so there's like, no standard rate etc?
well it is a big industry with people working on different types of games
Hell no. This is also why it's taboo to talk about your income
no, and from what I heard UK based devs earning less than everyone in the west europe
I always see them complain ๐
Though honestly it helps the employers more than the workers to keep it secret
yeah it's quite weird, and with how the game dev industry can stick together i expected there to be set rates ๐ค
guess it's bad to just assume stuff ๐
For sr I've seen postings anywhere from around $60k to nearly 200
But I'm also looking in the states, pay tends to be higher. Edit: rather I see postings in the states because that is my network. Not looking right now.
(though that doesn't mean much with some of the cost of living here)
yeah so location does play a big part huh,i suppose that matters much more for bigger groups of game devs which need physical presence
and that's probably where a senior dev would be
Increased remote work and "the great resignation" have really shook up salaries right now
live in a 3d world country, earn as $$$ and work remote
easy profit
At my last job around half the people I worked with were leaving because they could make more $$$ at other companies. They weren't paid poorly at the job they left either.
i was thinking that with remote work the location would matter less ๐
but that's not how sr devs work ig
I've been thinking of trying to do something like this if my project doesn't pan out
better opportunities huh
Time zone can be a problem in relation to meetings
Cross world meetings are a PITA to setup
Ideally there will be good enough facilities there too. Medical, transport, internet, kindergarten and etc.
if that country is not from asia, africa or america yeah there will be
you know where I am talking about ๐
Exactly. There are pros and cons to move over such place.
3rd world doesn't necessarily mean stone hut. It may just cost more to get the tech you need.
... โ ๏ธ
Yeah set up a meeting with a 12 hour time zone difference between participants. Basically guaranteed someone will be pissed.

Hi, could anyone help me find a game made in Unreal Engine ?
It is a ball game where you roll down hills and turn into a flying disk that can fly as long as it is in contact with water

hmm.. I disabled firewall and it worked
I guess I need to add exception (which I did already anyway :/ )
best to run with no firewall, throw caution to the wind
youve made a mistake to connect it to a bad network anyway

Both are equal numbers, if you imply the right one is a 2-bit binary number.

If the right one was binary, the value would be 2 in decimal, not 3.
Or potentially -1.
In trinary, it would be 3.

@soft night, :8ball: You may rely on it.

@soft night some1 did that overhere with a flood recently
but when water is like that manholes can put their lid due to overpressure
scary
so it seemed the water was only 10 cm high but he got sucked into a manhole with extreme current
is he safe?
you get never out of that alive
Its like an evil hug
like it looks super safe.. just 10 cm water cruisin down the road but it can get really dangerous even if it looks like that
cant mess with water
water + unknown terrain = no no
We have a river down the road, when the bridge floods gotta be careful of the currents

Typical "every GTA" video
Forgets that games predating GTA 3 exist

Why nobody talks about gta 1 and 2?
those are old man games ๐
omg I love state aliases
why is my editor indexing my blueprints?
Happy Fatherโs Day everybody!
wut
I think maybe it was cause I changed something on a blueprint interface and it was searching for references?
aaand I crashed the editor.
i only crashed it like 6 times in the last 5-6 hours
but considering that i replaced a bunch of blueprint enums with c++ enums, that wasn't thaaaaat bad ๐
that was barely possible in 4.27...
I'm making an RTS and I had a bunch of stuff already made and working, but started watching the RTS series by Ryan layley, and he was doing things a bit different. So I changed from using interfaces to direct references, and then back... so I think somewhere a glitch formed
I use interfaces to get direct references too ๐
Getting references can be a lot easier if it's interfaced because you can make a GetParentRef function in the interface so everything can return itself
he's done it so that buildings were child bps of the unit pawn class. But buildings dont need all the extra stuff that a pawn has. plus I wanna be able to select things like resource nodes, and whatever else
wha, get parentref?
However many times I tried to use a BP interface, there was always some better way to do it.
yeah just a simple interface function that returns self. Then if you are mass checking for interface executions you can always get the reference to the parent of the interface that you called it from
if you don't use interfaces though you can end up with huge casting chains trying to find the right object type. But it's all situational. Sometimes I skip interfaces and do it the old fashioned way if I am storing the reference to the object
huh
Yeah in my case I went with interfaces so that I can have units that are pawn base, or vehicle base, or whatever
if I dont want it supporting the move command I just dont add the code
proper and intelligent usage of OOP overcomes this
overuse of interfaces are just abuse
thats why i said its situational
at this point in time, I have no idea what my units and such are going to be
from my experience %1 of the time you need an interface
from my experience epic use interfaces more than 1% of the time and I trust them
Also Epic: releases lyra
yeah its a nice bit of kit
Yeah, maybe we have to examine a specific case. However, none so far on my side. I mean, I tried. But then again <insert BP bad emoji>
its also abusive in some places
when i was moving away from interfaces, I would have had to have a seperate selection array for each type of object I want to select, and make sure I'm clearing those selections if I select or deselect something else
Ah, saying that. I remember one case. I solved with tag, I needed a tag anyway.
I dont know how to use tags ๐ฆ
generic team interface and avoidance interface in the engine are good examples about when to use them
this thing is definitely cursed
i didnt asked for a elon from a corrupted reality image
you got it anyway
None of us wanted it too, but here we are.
@deep copper
somehow i doubt that it is drawing
all the images look like composition
๐
does the link above show up for you? the one with the grapes + dogs?
when i tried to upload it in discord it was blocked -.-
yes i saw, i can see why discord blocked it
it's probably not very crayon like, it's just ai like
anyone knows why the hell is windows allocating this much pagefile memory?
maybe you ran out of memory once and it paged that much?!
I smoked some herbs and ran out of memory once.
possible, resharper is a ram eater
nope
I don't remember since when I haven't managed page files manually.
Just have tons of RAM and HDD. It helps.
Just learned MidJurney AI is a thing, look it up it's insane
been swamped with that since it released ๐
You are making me double check my messages now ๐
ai are insane @celest musk
Don't think those words are how I would describe a demon
Ah that's the sass I missed for like 4 days
I need Rider
the apple reviewer looking at my app for ~100 mins now
Yeah, Windows auto pagefile allocation can be bollocks at times
why can't these image generators get faces right?
Is this a joke about the faces in the actual show?
no this was actual output I got from Craiyon
@ionic flame
I didn't know you were that kind of tank (top)
I blame Craiyon for the interpretation
fake grapes
Susgrape
Yay or nay
These AI gen images are like nfts - fun first few minutes, then all look the same.

I think practically it can be used to serve as reference for concept arts.
HmmmmMMMMMmmmm....

BUHBYE
Mine doesnt look as good ๐ฆ
I don't know about your beliefs, but I believe in using AI as a building block for human made creations
AI creation could be something for human artists to improvise from
When I think AI, I think either something incomprehensible, like the image above, the alexa billy bass
I can't wait for the generative games to come out that give access to different levels of the algorithm, pay 5$ a for dall-e mini gen, pay $20 for a imagen, midjourney, dalle2 quality
I like the way Apophysis works, it gives you squares and you can select which route you want to continue working towards. I think thats whats missing abit from these ones is that human input in the middle of the process
100%, I haven't played with those kinds yet but it's absolutely whats needed
I believe the AI generated images aren't good to look at for an extended period of time. There were historical discussions where it's believed that some island natives could physically not see explorers sailing by on a boat, because the concept of a boat is so unbelievably foreign and impossible to comprehend that they just see a massive blur in the ocean
I feel like that's what my brain is experiencing after looking at them for too long
thats why I was really interested in Alchemist when it was announced, that AI assisted art to me is more interesting than wholey AI generated
we all know what happened to Jeff Goldblum when he told the computer to be creative ๐
"There were historical discussions where it's believed that some island natives could physically not see explorers sailing by on a boat"
And this is why historians should not be allowed to take drugs.
I want AI to make money for me. So I can just run ai.exe and chill meanwhile.
are you sure the island natives wernt taking drugs too
They probably were, but not the good refined stuff. Then again, the Maya might have known a thing or two...
Most of the AI images tend to look like sloppy composites. The ones that are completely unrecognizable are probably a greater achievement.
Well I definitely think the Wombo AI is attempting to be creative, its just not overly good at the details but maybe its just that it needs more processing time
