lmao great subs thar
Developer's Debugging Session after using UChildActorComponent, Day 3
Interesting, new ThinkPad are with Ryzen. Intel's reign is over (kek)
I really need to have my laptop fixed at some point
Guys I have given my manager an estimate of 3 days and I did it in 4 hours
what do I do with remaining time
you mean "how should i waste the resources of my company in the remaining time?"
Have you tested?
!8ball have you being tested?
@soft night, :8ball: My reply is no.
let's spend it together in #lounge !
he looks like lotr goblin with that pose
gollum?
Dark mode On
wordle
or maybe I should keep working, moving up the timeline of my life and retire like 6 years early ๐ค
being born rich is the leading cause of being rich
That plan is on track pretty well for me
Nice
nah, I think I'd rather join a debate club
I don't hink you have been either, insulting people that don't agree with you is not debating
I think you accidentally typed my name instead of yours at the end there
heh
It's such a fucking joke this guy is like "pls help me how to get a job"
and the rest of the time he's harassing people
if you're being an asshole like this IRL then no wonder you can't find a job
:p
"i like to talk sh!t about sh!t i know nothing about and be a hostile prick to anyone who does" -- dieter
Dieter was literally helping you by answering your questions about getting a job
Why are you being such an ass towards him all of a sudden?
<@&213101288538374145> can we finally get a mod to do something about this guy
im actually so done with this.
:no_entry_sign: American Patriot#5374 was banned.

i got screenshots
what is this abomination
nice
cursed
yes !! bullseye bingo! ๐ฏ โญ
how did you post this without nitro ๐ค
It's a twitch emote on my channel, you get to post those anywhere without nitro
:O
For other twitch emotes besides your own channel I think you still need nitro
subscribe to my onlybans
lol
that's literally the only thing i said after weeks , it doesn't even have an asci heart !
lol
I barely miss ya.
that's quite a life hack ๐ค
it truly is
I should probably have better emotes because
is the only one I ever use tbh
that's really a, unique choice of emoji xD
I guess pog and its variant isn't allowed
the money bag is my only tier 3 emote so that's why it's a money bag 
still better than half emotes of regular private servers

i am witnessing an emoji revolution in this server ig, we had so less before for years

pew pew pew
is this in relation with ninja challenge of ue :P
nah
since I can't model characters and we needed some for the game, I just took some stuff off Mixamo... I added the ninja as a joke even though it didn't really make any sense
but now it's an integral part of the game's sense of humor lol
I did add a headband to it that says "ninja" on it as an homage to some really bad ninja movies that I like watching
that's how most memes pop up xD
mixamo so painful in UE
Is it?
It worked pretty well for me tbh
But I'm not doing anything super complicated, just basic walking anims and some idle anims
the retargeting is rough when using Manny animations
Ah, yeah I just used the ones off mixamo
The only issue I ran into was that the materials for hair were kinda jank and I had to spend ages trying to figure out how it should be done so it looked good
ended up not using anything from there
wouldn't it be easier to convert the mixamo char to the manny rig?
still doesn't look as good as it does on the Mixamo preview on their website but at least it's kinda ok
probably
also wasn't very impressed with what I could get
ended up with much better characters on the UE store, but $$$
Yeah most of them don't really fit together that well
I have one of the woman models, the business suit guy and the ninja in mine, will probably have to figure out how to get more at some point but I don't think they'll be from Mixamo :D
I added some variety to it by using some material tricks to recolor parts of the clothes at random, and gave them random hats lol
in ue5 from what I understand, with the ik rig retargeting, it's way easier to port mixamo stuff
I've been wondering if it would be easy'ish to make character models with something like Character Creator
but I've not tried it out yet
I mean Metahumans is there of course, but I don't know if I want that kind of super high realism, and at least last time I tried it the clothing selection was pretty bad
Yeah I guess, depends on if it fits stylistically
Not that we have any kind of style anyway because although my friend can do models I don't know if they really have a very well defined art style lol
showing excellent debate skills
tbh I wonder if he had some kind of mental issues when he really seemed to go between jackass troll and regular person so much :P
yeah I genuinely did not realize it was the same guy asking questions in #career-chat lol
Character Uncreator
until you mentioned it
heh
ohhhh
American Patriot got banned???
bummer!
welp
guess we'll proceed with our lives
@graceful sequoia if you pay for nitro anyway, why not have animated pfp
and profile banner
it can all be manny
I also offer paid nitro.
I think steam sales just started
got an email that 9 of my wishlisted games are on sale
yea summer sales
i wish i had something to play, but on the other hand not much gains my interest ๐
wish as in I'll buy it at 90% off maybe
end of day, it's just a waste of time
If you have catched a golden fish or a genie - 3
I have a lot of games in my backlog so it feels a bit wrong to buy games... but pretty much all of my backlog games are just stuff I got for free so I never was like "oh yeah I want to play this enough to pay for it"
So I might snag something from the sales
Frog Detective 2 is whispering in my ear to buy it
lol
lol that looks kinda funny
Yeah I really enjoyed the first one, it's only about an hour to finish it which is a shame
It's just sort of goofy and feel good fun
I have so many games in the Lib that I have no wish to even start.
might get doom eternal and play it in the winter or something
Wait, Epic my release it for free in the next few years.
offside: I love that feeling of untainted, clean, state of a computer.
Ready for Debian
That's why I said next few years. Why hurry?
well, id software is one of the few studios which might deserve a few bucks ๐
their games are usually pretty flawless
Doom Eternal is great
I actually played through it on Nightmare which was a bit of an effort lol
Main complaints I've seen about it are just that some people don't like the fact it sort of encourages you to switch guns a lot, but it's really just a question of which kind of gameplay you enjoy
I know someone who hated it cuz they ran out of ammo too much
I didn't like it because it was generic and boring. ๐ฆ
yeah you have to sort of play the "combat puzzle" a bit
do all the things that give you ammo and stuff
I didnt use the abilities at first but you kinda have to if you want to conserve armour
I thought it had some pretty cool setpieces
yeah I love the environmental art in both Doom games they are great
I don't remember, played it ages ago.
the music just adds to the overall ambience
Doom (2016)
:P
I need to play Wolfenstein The New Order again... I keep remembering it had really cool design like the whole part where you go to the moon base
Ah the moon base.
The BFG10K was the part ||where you climb inside the huge cannon and shoot yourself to mars with it lol||
yeah I think so, same with the wheelchair sequence
Gotta listen to some BFG Division now
so idk if i should give new order still a go
they are great shooters though thats what I love about em, none of this collect all the widgets across a 132km map or silly things like that
just heres a linear story, here have some big guns
I guess the one thing that 2016 did better was the soundtrack
at least it feels like it had more memorable bits like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6y6chb0Qq8
Music from Doom (2016) published by Bethesda Softworks.
Album: Doom (Original Game Soundtrack) by Mick Gordon.
You can buy the soundtrack here: https://amzn.to/2yZhwgi
Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLe0EamRrnC6Rb5F3njbg6eYYy09PNKEOv
i liked how NC has some stealthy gameplay in it
quite enjoyed that
is that also in New Order?
Eternal had a good soundtrack as well but none of it really stood out so much
there was one I really enjoyed from Eternal it was the alien cathedral world bit
was it the one with the fucking jumping puzzles
Doesn't get better than e1m1
that part was painful
yeah jumping puzzles but the music was great ๐
haha
I watched some speedrun of it and there were so many exploits in the jumps that you could use to make it a lot faster and easier lol
its crazy to me when I play a game like those Dooms then go to others I find myself looking for spots to double jump dash or monkey bars
then I get all disappointed when I cant find any
heh
Yeah my retro fps project has crouchsliding and walljumping, the sliding works pretty well and I find myself trying to slide in other games
the walljumping needs a bit more work to make it really smooth and nice, but at least the basic thing works
Dying Light 2 was pretty great.
sliding can be alot of fun when its done right, was playing that retro one with the chainsaw leg thats a clever take on that mechanic
Ah yeah Turbo Overkill
Yeah that's an interesting implementation of a slide for sure
I just couldn't get into that game much otherwise... I mean it's good but it's just.. I don't know
I like the idea of chaining kills but you really have to know the map design well enough to make the best use of it
In my game we have a mechanic for "adrenaline"
You gain adrenaline from kills and a whole bunch of other stuff, and it basically just makes you more powerful in various ways like giving you extra abilities to use and at least currently it also soaks up damage
Im guessing thats like a form of push forward combat to keep the loop going as long as possible
Yeah and to just encourage you to go balls to the wall essentially lol
yup over defensive play is a valid tactic but its not that entertaining
could you imagine the next big esport, its the most realistic ww2 game made... its called hide in your foxhole
matches only take 3-4 months to play out
lol
WW1 - You start in the trenches and then slowly walk towards the enemy machine gunners. Closest to the enemy trench wins.
so thats where squid game stole it from
A game where squids walk? A game where squids walk towards enemy machine gunners? Cool.
Do you use controller/gamepad?
mouse+kb
Then try finishing Nightmare (or even Ultra NM) with gamepad 
Also I'm suck at doing claw grip with Xbox controllers tbh, just because the left thumbstick is on the upper side
have you thought about holding a controller like a normal person
hmm looks like I have no friends on steam
When testing controls for my projects, yeah
Hmm looks like I have no friends.
@deep copper these people need you
Gotta make sure my default control scheme doesn't require unorthodox grips
It's a life choice ๐ people are weird AF
Toe-tally freaky.
Humans are disgusting
says the tentacle monster :p
why are python enums so cursed
this is auto on a whole new level
nice there's not even some kind of switch statement before pythong 3.10
very cool
I like my bool lean and my whiskey rotund
doesn't help the code I'm working on was rammed together quickly by a guy that doesn't work at the company anymore, but is now too large to completely refactor in a timely manner
Just delete it, blame it on a system bug.
unfortunately it's pretty crucial
idk how it happened but somehow I became owner of 3 of the 4 packages my team of 5 people maintains
so much effort
port it to java
we use jinja templates and shit
Use UE5's new retargeting... bound to work.
it's basically template files where you can use variables to determine what things are replaced by
advanced string replace
but basically with a python interpreter in it as well
for conditional things and shit
and no doubt expertly commented, and documented? ๐
hm? you need me?
yup. clean them often, but then my keyboard generally stays pretty clean most of the time.
need to get a second pair of keycaps for maximum efficieny to work while cleaning
not the default ones, they are ugly
@proud jay get rid of the grapes or you are blocked

besides, isn't it time to update your month count of unreal free
clearly you're not keeping up with the news
I opened unreal to try something out
no longer free
oh no
so that's how your work got done early ๐ค
or because your work got done early you
did it
okay but, it seems like your name has more grapes now
who's fault is that
jovvy
Per usual, there is no way to install Linux w/o 1h of hardware issues + cutting edge kernel.
dafuq with these grapes again
I think you need @celest musk tech support
I don't respond to threats
huh
Fat
did someone do something to you, with them?
or you did it yourself...
maybe a grape puzzle you couldn't solve ๐ค
@burnt lake Here, have a grape to calm down ๐
Fat
sugar* ?
bridged?
Omg! That is actual monkey feet
linux voodoo
It can't be real i think.. It it was he had to suffer from a genetic issue were the DNA was messed up when developing limbs
Stuck on a old version of code that should have been upgraded many times ๐คฃ
i guess you are obsessed with that code ๐ฅ
hehehe
AKA life/evolution? ๐
I'm always obsessed with the unknown. Therefor the name hehe
spam
mmm, really?
what is this supposed to be?
^
A game I want to make
#work-in-progress then
ok

did you register obsess.io ๐
Pleasantly surprised by the amount of Linux games @ Steam
Just watched the latest episode. Much joy.
that last episode of Obiwan was pretty decent too
hey blender and krita runs great on linux.. i tested that
Blender sure. Found a nice "snap", gets the latest 3.2
installed on linux mint... no problem at all
It is my office laptop actually. Nice to move around.
I just boot from a linux usb when I need to use it
ahh i must have some linux usb somewhere
unmarked with a bunch of other USBs
that shit is free so i dont need to take good care of it or sumthing
Convenient.
well the world would prolly be worse off without linux
Linux is nice... just... wild west
some dude told me blender runs twice as smooth on arch linux compared to its windows version
or some linux whose name idk,
pretty sure it was arch
why can't you just trust people?
exactly, and i am pretty certain they had the ๐ดโโ ๏ธ windows
that's what everyone using libraries or framework does
well atleast you have some metrics to go by
people who hug me become happy overtime maybe, here's a happiness graph ๐
cant disagree more
well, you gotta keep doing it! like a medicine you take overtime
you might see results in a few years
I always trust random dudes on the internet
well it does make you happy!
I made millions because the prince of nigeria contacted me one time, such a nice fellow, nigeria is lucky to have him
that's actually believable
it might have been an indirect contact for something and you might have made millions in the process of loosing most of it
He sent me hug emojis too, so many feels
more believable than that hugging you makes people happy
What does eggplanting people do?
i can't refute that ๐
hey it might work with others too!
what's up with the squid xD
is this whole tokens system new with Autodesk flex plans?
almost $2000 for 83.3 days of access to Maya... lols
i wonder if that token will become a cypto currency or something next
god I really hope the industry shifts to Blender and obliterates Autodesk's modeling products
๐ญ
uh oh... their webpage is asking for a survey on "how they're doing"...
well, lets chat
at this point they are just busy milking whoever actually pays for it
that's all
so basically those big company etc only
hell, even pixologic got on board with making things a bit better. Zbrush at least you can monthly sub without taking out a loan to pay for it lol
Autodesk isnt that useful without an autochair
How do you fix this on Skyrim?
no idea, but i guess you finally sold your xbox ๐ค

Wondering, anybody here uses Rider?
I have been trying to unsucesfully set it up for UE5 for the past 2 hours and I think I am going a bit insane lol
I'm using it with UE5
What issues are you having?
Just don't install the Rider link plugin into the engine and instead into the project and it should work fine
It doesnt show up on UE
It only lists VS and CLion for some reason
Using UE5
You can just directly open the sln with rider
does it offer the same features?
yes
hmmm gonna give it a try
I am 100% done with intellisense slowness and VS so I am hoping rider helps me there
There is Rider source code access plugin in UE5 you might need to enable to get it to show up in the menu in editor but it doesn't add much
Basically when adding new classes through the editor (which you should be doing through your IDE anyways) and double clicking on BP nodes it opens up your IDE you selected, I don't think selecting it in UE does anything else
You can just open the sln with Rider
hey Blue, while you're here, could you maybe pin this in #cpp pretty please? #cpp message
only if you really want to of course ๐
I kinda want that
haha
How do I enable it
?
Rider normally pops up a thing on startup about rider link no?
not on my end
yeah, no, nothing like that
I dont even see Rider for Unreal Engine anywhere on my dotUltimate installer
explains a lot
haha
Okay, I see the issue now
the dotUltimate installer is botched
using the standalone rider installer works
what a mess
I had to uninstall everything and reinstall it individually
maybe its VAC related? the dotUltimate installer asked for elevation, the normal one doesnt, maybe some permission issue?
but anyways, thank you!
Pinned ๐
That's a nice article/blog post
Thanks ๐
I didn't even know there was a specific dot ultimate installer
I just installed it by downloading this
Ah
googling directs me to like 3 different links
I really need to try to convince my IT department to let me install Rider on work machine
Yeah I went to the licenses page on my account and downloaded it through there
It's nice for c# development
we are in boys
I was so fed of intellisense
it would take literally minutes for simple suggestions sometimes
yeah vanilla vs is not great with unreal
you want either visual assist, resharper or just use Rider
for some reason I wasnt able to build today for an hour so that pushed me to finally buy dotUltimate
the good thing is dotultimate is only 10 bucks more than just rider
which includes resharper as well
yup! Thats why I went for it haha
also nice that if you just pay for a year, you can keep that version without paying for it anymore
just need to pay for updates
Also it's cheaper each year
3rd year onwards is something like 30% off
as a side note
I just installed the rider link plugin and autocompletion stopped worked almost entirely lol
hahaha
Any easy fix/way to remove it ?
gonna try restarting UE first
Rider link shouldn't affect autocompletion
It's for some extra features when working with UE, like reading UE logs and BP inspection
after installing it, it started showing up the errors, before that I had no errors
40% even!
In the settings in Rider enable indexing of unreal modules and plugins
if you only just started for the first time the indexing might take a while
its enabled already
I have indexing of plugins enabled too
This too ^
replied to the wrong message the first time
it isnt indexing anymore
It actually finished indexing before I installed the rider plugin
I get this message too
That's probably why
Try exiting, generate project files again (.uproject right click), then open rider and under File->Invalidate Cache
let me give it a shot
Oh yeah it's even more than I thought (the discount), it's something like 90$ 3rd+
damn that 150 price is before taxes ๐ญ
Are you opening the sln or the uproject file
I am double clicking a blueprint parent class from the editor
so most likely the sln
Open the sln directly
At least the first time so it generates everything that it has to
also never compile with editor open unless live coding btw
not sure if what you are doing might be messing with it in some way
idk about that, never used riderlink
Yeah try opening with sln directly
Did that
Ok try this
delete this folder
thats opening the sln directly
time to become potato farmer I guess
I am gonna reinstall
nuclear option but this is forcing my hand
I am a software engineer with shipped games I cant even begin to imagine what newbies must suffer when setting this up lol
What version of Rider is that 2022.1?
yep latest
Yeah that should work fine with UE5
this seems relevant https://rider-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/4404893771666-Unreal-Engine-Failed-to-initialize-Project-Model
Make sure you install the rider link plugin into the project if you are on UE5
as soon as It finishes installing I am gonna check it out
I think I might skip rider link at this point
Yeah you can, it will work fine without it
Rest of the team is using VS so I dont wanna introduce git plugin issues
I have it added to git/p4 ignore
I am a bit new to UE, gitignoring the plugin and changing the editor settings wont break anything for the rest of the team?
I am mostly a Unity dev so I am getting used to the environment haha
what editor settings do you mean
fml
this is after a fresh reinstall

Lost for words here, it doesnt even offer me a way to reinstall the plugin in the game folder instead of engine
If you later decide to change the installation location, use Force Install RiderLink in Engine/Force Install RiderLink in Game actions via Find Action(Ctrl+Shift+A).
4th reinstall
stuck here now
wanna scream
this is me trying to set up rider
LOL
it just refuses to work
I got dotUltimate so I have resharper
u.u
I been stuck here for 4 hours
isn't that RD error just the plugin install issue
remove RiderLink from your engine install
install to the project instead
or that
I cant do that
wat
option wasnt available, so now I went for a clean reinstall
go to your engine folder
but it cant even open the VS Solution at all
Yep I tried that on the last reinstall
then go to rider settings
search for RiderLink
make sure it isn't set to install to the engine
I thought it's preferred to install it per project instead of per engine? Is that still the case?
I never got the popup to reinstall the plugin again, and the action wasnt aVAILABLE either
yes
again, check settings
right now I am on a clean install, shouldnt at least be able to see the project?
no
because RiderLink is still installed
uninstalling rider doesn't magically remove RiderLink from a completely unrelated directory
so once again, check your settings and then delete RiderLink from your engine
you can access settings without opening a project
rider's "open project" page on launch has an option to open settings somewhere
the other thing you can do is delete RiderLink, generate the sln without rider, then open the sln with rider.
okay so, I am on settings
it's because intellij stores per-project settings which it obviously can't load if the projects aren't there
by going to engine\plugins\developer
and deleting it
not within rider
just in an explorer window
that's one of the things I actually like - I can tell it to store settings per-project, per-computer, or for everyone who uses it.
generate your project without rider
right click the uproject file, generate visual studio project files
this was a VS solution, do you want tme to generate the project files again?
gotcha
also, wdym without rider?
I mean that rider is failing to generate project files so stop using it until you figure out why.
this isnt loading uproject instead of sln is it? i assume that isnt as terrible as it was during EA but
if you can successfully generate the sln then you can open that in rider.
only loosely following
uproject works fine these days
rider sometimes doesn't report project generation errors though
ok, open it in rider
Doing something now
sigh this is such a mess
I feel I am doing stuff I had done before
the mess is that jetbrains still hasn't updated RiderLink despite fixing this issue a while ago
If you're interested in blowing your money on the most expensive asset on the marketplace, we take a first look at the Real City SF - Downtown Environment Mega Pack.
It's $1,499.99 - We show you what you get - no comments in the video - make your own mind up.
Buyer Beware!
Mediocre at best, the developer has a track record of denigrating anyo...
lol
as soon as this is done I will let you know how it goes
if it fails after installing rider link I am just going back to VS and hoping resharper works
Would I watch a docu-reality show about working at Jetbrains? Yes. Would I get PTSD from reliving similar projects. Yes
yes, riderlink has nothing to do with this
LOL
riderlink is fine as long as you install it to the project
yeah i will not
my brain hurts
this were the least productive 4 hours of my year by far
My relationship with Unreal editor and Jetbrains is a lot like growing up when my parents divorced. "Oh, I'm going over there for a while"
hot/live coding seems but a promise
as a unity dev it boggles my mind that you have to close the project, rebuild the solution (~3 minutes), and reopen UE whenever you do minimal c++ changes or try using live coding, watch it crash 80% of the time and have to do the other option anyways
Yes, c++ and the dev environment is the worst thing about Unreal. I mean its atrociously, hilariously bad. C# blows it out of the water any way. Still better than Unity tho
yeah you typically work against the uproject these days
With Rider (tm)
Interested on this lol
oh, yeah I am doing regular builds
it just takes, a long time
yes
It's D sadly
its a big project, not AAA but its indeed big
been stuck here for like 20 minutes
I have no space left sadly
Yeah, startup time is way worse for me than compile time
F and D are mechanical
everything else is full to the brim with sample libraries
and the project is 80~gb so I am stuck
If you want to just compile fast, use VS
VS took a while too
is there a magic setting I am missing
today I wasnt able to build anything
20~30 minutes of being stuck
Compile it in SSD.
in both VS and rider so far
yeah, sounds like SSD or shitty cpu... compilation isnt that bad

wasnt there like an unity switch or somerthing that was faster?
I very vaguely remember something about an option that compiled faster
I have Rider/VS in the SSD
\the project itself is in the HDD
I mean the project.
yeah no chance, no space anywhere
I think I am gonna grab a new SSD next week
this has been pure pain
VS/Rider only calls UBT, which in turn calls MSBuild
Which is also something you can do in command line
you know
I am gonna try cleaning the solution
then building it from scratch
my experience doesnt make sense, maybe something went wrong with a file or something
or maybe everybody is a masochist and have to deal with this kind of bs on the daily
LOL
Wait, I get this but you still have to close the project right
makes sense
Project and unreal engine should be on C:/UnrealEngine
Oh it was an issue with RiderLink in the end, which I mentioned like 3 times ๐
2*
I did delete it
๐ฆ
I double checked with Everything that I had no RiderLink folder
Like, this was empty when I checked
Also you should really have the project and the engine on an SSD
Having them on a hard drive is the definition of pain and suffering
haha yeah
I am going on vacation next week for a month, but I will deff grab a couple of big SSDs for when I come back
Trepang Studio is such a fun devs
They turn their devblogs into a shitpost blog for fun

You guys gonna live in the handmaids tale soon ๐
they'd better not. I can't deal with a handmaid.
Im just confused about the USA tbh, they fought tooth and nail to get away from England just to adopt its religions more fanatically
Yes. Because they wanted slaves and England wasn't feeling it.
because the Torys dont have slaves? ๐
it's like splitting a branch on git ๐ค
Is there some joke about the tories I haven't heard? (Besides all of them. I'm missing out on a lot of laughs, for sure.)
what do you call a Conservative MP who can actually clam things down?
anti-inflammatory
I heard the Republican Party is considering renaming itself as the National Conservative party
or Nat-C for short
How many conservatives do you need to screw in a lightbulb?
Ten.
One holds the bulb, the other nine wait for Fox News to spin it.
What's a conservative's least favourite instruction?
Apply liberally.
The names โToryโ or โToriesโ were initially terms of abuse used by Whigs โ also initially a term of abuse โ and it meant โIrish Catholic Banditsโ. However, under the effective leadership of Danby the name was adopted by the party.
ahh the Glorious Revolution, there hasnt quite been a revolution since that was quite so glorious
did they come up with a good name for that whole Jan 6 thing or is it not good enough to have its own name?
The March of the Sloblins
It could be the Mildly Entertaining Insurrection Attempt, still not very glorious
I was talking about how much Elon Musk in his tuxedo reminded me of Mr Toad of Toad Hall from Wind in the Willows
Hey all, quick question: is there a channel here in which I can ask for potential beta testers? Or maybe some dedicated forums or something like that?
When you try to call on "20th Century Fox" after the rebrand
Russell Brand should do a rebrand ๐
There are a ton of indie discord servers that have that sort of channels
you could use unpaid-gigs channel aye
Thanks both of you!

Asobo Studio and Focus Entertainment are thrilled to reveal the first gameplay of A Plague Tale: Requiem, sequel to critically acclaimed and award-winning A Plague Tale: Innocence, in a new gripping trailer that premiered during The Game Awards 2021.
In this new trailer, as Robert Louis Stevensonโs poem โRequiemโ sets the tone, witness the firs...
Most blunt ad award
well this is odd, this 3D Realms game I found on Steam looks alot like Blood but its called Cultic

"but"? :P
A lot of people say cultic reminds them of Blood
I played the demo, it's.. okay I guess
Slayers X is still the best new boomer shooter coming out imo, I enjoyed their demo the most
I really liked Prodeus, Project Warlock is pretty cool too
pretty sure there was a sequel announced
I don't think they need to hire people for ads on discord, you know and ads are usually not youtube links ๐

Hot Reload Sucks
Genre: Punk Rock
Key: B minor
[Verse]
So there I was
Sitting on my gamer chair
Typing C++ like a hackerman
Yeah yeah
With the editor still open
I pressed the compile button
Little did I know
The worst have yet to come![Chorus]
Hot Reload Sucks!
I lose my precious little blueprints because of you
Hot Reload Sucks!
You make my project all corrupted
Hot Reload Sucks!
Spread the message to other fellow developers
That hot reload is truly sucks[Guitar Solo]
Okay... I didn't get it
not always easy for non native english speakers I guess๐
Unreal Script Rocks should be the next ballad
cuz you had to shut the editor and the game to compile first ๐
I ruin funny jokes constantly at #cpp as hobby by not getting them
Is there any chance we'll improve one day?
tell me about it, i ruin everything by not getting it on a daily basis
What's your thoughts on Rupert Murdoch ?
I seen that lol
mixing lsd with 1960's and mickey mouse is where it's at for sure
๐
pretty cool way to come up with cartoon ideas and characters lol
using this one
I just needed one brick from the pack ๐ญ
that's some clark kent transformation ๐
plot twist, that IS one brick
if that thing falls on earth we are done for
we have to send it away because its starting to create its own gravitational field
Oh that's how it's been since the beginning. You don't leave your church and travel across the world because you're LESS of a religious nut.
fair point, its not like you can drink the kool-aid in other countries without importing it from the USA ๐
didnt england drop all its criminals in australia?
prolly still do.. its hard to change a system that works ๐
lmao
mdma design on point tho
imagine they start poppin out pills with fortnite logo
pretty sad actually
I've always thought pepsi should go into the pills market, with sleeping pills called narcopepsi.
They dropped what was left of the criminals after the rest left and formed the USA ๐
We were actually New Holland for awhile
We have this funny thing where our crime rate is measured by what people are worried will happen cuz theres so few crimes to make good statistics lol
Be careful you might get mugged by heart disease or shot with a cigarette
dalle 2?
Left looks like Val Kilmer right is Nick Cage as Terminator
imagine if they are actually talking back to you this way
lol

Daily religious doseof riderness
top right is empty xD
are you creating a gravitational field as well? because i am attracted ๐
not sure if leg or stomach in that center one
i just realised ๐ค , "Xero" might be a fancier way to write "Zero"
we have a winner
when I was a kid I loved the MegaMan X games and I was unoriginal so X + Zero = Xero and now you know my cringy backstory
i like how you can post these in history books and 99% wouldn't even know
it's not listening to me though
it didn't listen to me when i wrote "absolutely no grapes" either
it showed grapes
I used to be MaverickXero so it was worse ๐
the bosses in the MMX games go "Maverick" because of a virus from Zero making them try to take over the world for Dr. Wiley (who is dead)
Unreal Engine Extensions, Tools, and Modules... I was planning on making plugins
in that case, the name would make you sound like a dedicated fan of Xero !
"planning" "was" ๐
nah there was just some other bozo calling themselves "Xero" and I needed people to stop confusing us. So I made my website part of my user name (kinda like a namespace for my name)
lol I think yours might be a bit easier to decipher
yup! there's nothing much to it, but there could be if you try to get closer โค๏ธ
jk ofc
lol
how are you guys
how odd, you said something instead of sending a gif ๐ค
and i am fine, how are you doing?
this was taken yesterday at 22:42
weird post process, but okay
not post process
this was taken just a few seconds before but in same time as mins and hours goes
that's so cool but delicate looking
I guess Peter got the wrong web shooters...
lol
Hi guys I made my first UE5 movie sequence, the assets dont belong to me ^.^ , Kinda new, can I have some encouragement and tips/tricks to market my upcoming projects, I plan on making a Horror cinematic Trailer next, which will probably take me like 3-4 months since I work as well ๐

I have insomnia so that helps , I get time ๐
pretty impressive, how did you animate the moves? phone with motion capture?
I wish, I used Maximo Livelink, it was an already made Animation I just retargeted it, but recently I learnt the they added animation Rig to Metahumans so I will try to use it a bit in my next project, I do eventually want to buy equipment for motion capture in the near future, I am just so pumped ๐ took me years to decide what I want to do with my Life, I left programming and want to pursue Animation, more specifically, Movie sequences in games or a short Film ๐ , I have planned out my next 6 years of my life around this passion ๐ , the best part is I am super motivated, I went from wanting to do my masters in Data Science to now pursuing Animation ๐ , although I have a long long road as I need to learn alot. Creating Animations/Assets from Scratch e.t.c . my programming side is decent so I am chill about that ๐
not an expert or anything but could be that its not picking up the file, maybe check if the file there exist and if the location in lyra is the same as the file.
could very well be a Bug https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/error-when-packaging/513767/5
my username for years was MegaMan because I loved Mega Man (more points for more unoriginality)
2 days to reinstall windows...
and 40+ programs.
lol
finally can run the editor
2 tb drive turns into 700 gigs. fastttttt.
2 days? jeebus
been busy irl
my moms fathers brother is going to pass in a few days, we have been making him feel alive agian
ahh
Hmm. Play more game or switch over to game dev for a bit. Dont know what I'm doing in my game so I'm thinking of trying to find some good blender modelling tutorials to improve my skills
I'm planning on going to college but does anyone here have a job in programming with no degree? Just curious
it's def hard mode with no degree
also some people genuinely learn in school
Right ic
I don't have a degree, and it's made things more difficult but I also have been good at networking
and that's a must if you don't meet the HR reqs
also keep in mind school gives you a starting network
life is pay to win after all
was doing a degree but dropped it for a advanced diploma, never had a lack of degree be questioned when applying for jobs
Only time it has been an issue when looking into moving to the US, other then that all down to knowledge/experience
Yeh I guess I should have specified my experience was in the US
Over here every job claims they need 3-5 years experience AND a degree.... so in reality we all get around something to get started.
It's really about making connections and using them or getting a degree to avoid this in the US.
Agreed, networking has gotten me way further then any degree ever could
Even when working remote for US companies they never required it
Remember I live near DC... it only gets worse here
They already want 5 years experience with 2 year old tech sometimes
and that's the jobs that don't want a clearance where you need to give up your privacy forever
cause that's a thing too here
I assume you're talking public service stuff tho right? Not games
Same here as well
Remember when the Army made a game... these things overlap sometimes (think VR stuff now)
not every military project is public
Oh yeah but you're still contracted through the public service
but yeh also the boring programming jobs (I had one with RFID stuff)
it's a messy web of contractors
MGS is only kinda parody
Half the stuff in the UE new projects window isn't "games" anymore also... I bet there are tons of architectures firms in the DMV using UE to do virtual tours and to document wires/pipes in buildings
I have a friend that works in a company that does this with photography and 3d scans
Absolutely, and you can fully capitalize on that
Tho unsure how many people are applying for those jobs, industry was very much Unity focused so was very easy applying jobs with UE experience but i suspect that has changed a fair bit now days. At least for entry level positions
VR is the key
Did my time with VR, never again haha
these companies (rightly or wrongly) are super invested in it for non-game stuff
they're throwing money at it like crazy in the DoD
think training simulators
again... MGS was joking but it's real now
yeah absolutely, defense here as been the same for many a year
Especially since DK1 for oculus
dramatically reduced costs for them
exactly... VR becoming consumer products is massively in their benefit
I remember when the Air Force bought a ton of PS3s when they were new (and had Linux) to use them as a cluster. The military has it's eyes on gaming
so I guess how this all relates back... there are all sorts of jobs (even just talking about UE ones) out there for programming. Connections are the key to getting one
school can give you connections but it's expensive in some places
yeah look the only reason i'd suggest people going to uni now is if
1 ) they need direction
2 ) (and the biggest factor) networking
if you were making a 2d game in unreal engine
would you use ui
or put 2d actors in the world
I suppose if you pass the bar exam youre a lawyer degree or not ๐
my favourite are honourary degrees
obviously, but we were talking in the context of programming
Wouldn't that look good on your review though?
Review of what?
It would look better then nothing but what you could achieve in 3-4 years of actually making games would be measurably more
What sort of "where" are you talking?
The degree makes a difference in pushing you higher up the pile but if you have actual experience, that's far more valuable
In games? And I'm guessing the US?
Wonder how long ago that was
lets just say they were applying for a company with unreal and got a degree in like html or something, would they consider or still off the table
hello
ik it is irrelevant, it's just an example, are they rejecting them because they think they were irresponsible for not going to college? Or because they don't have the c++ course experience to back it up
if that makes sense
You need something to show you're worth taking a risk.
which diploma would be better for someone whose new to the industry? game dev or comp sci
The latter
my friends who worked as devs said they went indie because overworked and so on, is this true?
and told me to avoid it as someone new
Depends on region and the company
asia
Yeah, crunch work is more expected in Asia
Speaking as native Asian myself
But I think with comp sci degree, you'll have easier time getting hired on software development in general
Hear horrible stories of Japanese "black" companies where people don't go home before 10pm... on a good day.
