might look better if i did the screen space trick

[rain lynx]

Hm, alr. I'll check this out

[rustic horizon]

ye, if u read around, its the geometrically correct version

If you do the "Doorway" version which is more what we expect, the camera gets put behind the portal, rendering everything infront of it. & since u cant edit textures, you cant do anything like scaling up whats seen in the portal specifically. The only other way to avoid this is by i assume a copy of everything that scales based on how far the cam should be without moving the actual camera n such

Actually i forgot theirs FOV, i bet you can adjust it so that what should be seen through portal fills the portal's quad

[rain lynx]

Wait. Whats the Recursive Camera Display Snapshot?

[rustic horizon]

Its the opened circuit board in top right

[rain lynx]

oooh, i see now. I feel dumb. Lmao

[rustic horizon]

ah yee

remember geometric = Yourself from the other portal your looking at's perspective

so even tho its probably not physically based, ill try the "portals = doorways" way remembering FOV can be interpreted as zoom which would be the same thing as scaling up the part u would actually see through the portal to the portals mesh, but in full resolution & no texture editing as its the type that comes first to peoples mind im pretty sure

TLDR old

Too drunk pls

I stop playing for 1 month and now there's non rrs cameras????????

[rustic horizon]

ye, they realising maybe they should listen to the community

also geuss what, yk all those EXCLUS8VE, Onlyyyyy posible with Rooms 2 limit increases like chips, cpu, ink? Well since they listening, they gave them to Rooms 1, wich magicallyyyyyy handles the increases just fine . ALMOST as if they were only trying to make rooms 2 SEEM better to lure more ppl in bc they dont fully know what they're doing & dont wanna play their own game 😬 ||I knew it||

& imagine my thoughts when i have been hyped up by ppl even devs about Textures, & when they first release, you cant even edit them, the sole reason id want them 💀 So all it dose is display Art canvas, Rec net photos, & a camera

im very spitefull, somewhat disapointed, but luckily they might be on the right track now

[full hemlock]

Yeee I also saw a few other patch notes of the update include fixing some lag/fps drops for vr players aswell as some more stuff that seems actually good for the game so I started wondering if rec room might actually be making a comeback, also slightly disappointed after I saw that the only way to make a texture is with the art canvas but the camera thing sure is an upgrade tho 🤷‍♂️

[rustic horizon]

you make textures with constants. Then u set them to the camera, art canvas, rec net photo, then u set textured quad to the texture

but ye, its still the goofy physically based cartoony rec style tho, if we could edit textures it could be a more convient (hopefully cheaper too) Display for my camera so i can do higher res, moving the cam n such instead the in-place canvas with cooldowns

[full hemlock]

I see, well I'm pretty sure they're gonna update it more there's no way it just stays like this so you should look out Incase that happens

It is still in beta

And they are allegedly starting to listen to the community so maybe you can try your luck somewhere?

[rustic horizon]

ye, i will. Looks like its gonna clutter the pallet with some like "Set Texture Pixel Color From Coordinate" Instead just "List set element" considering texture isnt a list. Unless its like collision data where it stores the dimensions & color list 🙏 but that means its gonna be more expensive too because you need chips to get it instead just doing it in the first place bc compacting shit into 1 thing just looooks soooo much bettterrrr

[full hemlock]

Yee I understand what you mean, but I feel like if it's something like collision data it would definitely be more accessible to more cv2ers who aren't that advanced, and it's more organized but that's just my opinion

[rustic horizon]

collision data would save so much cpu & some chips if it just output everything at once as lists. Instead looping with a constant check in it n such for say, the local player. We couldve just used "List Except" n such. So hopefully its not starting this path

[full hemlock]

Ohhhh

That makes sense

You should work at rec room

[rustic horizon]

they all went AI & laid off more ppl recently

[full hemlock]

Yeah I saw that

It was so sad tbh seeing some of my fav devs get laid off

Especially trunks

[rustic horizon]

& no openings

[rustic horizon]

ye, even will

[full hemlock]

Yeahh

But ig it was necessary for rec Room to continue just existing

[rustic horizon]

id imagine when they have more openings its gonna be like last time, AI, or 5 years experience

[full hemlock]

Ai is such a bad path for rec room to be taking

Especially with all the downsides ai has and stuff

[rustic horizon]

wouldnt run into such things if they just kept listening to us instead what they feel is right

[full hemlock]

Agreed

[rustic horizon]

ye, for me, just like, nobody asked. Yk. & AI is like, its own thing, its not really a tool to be used in a game unless u have some NPCs u want to yap forever for immersion that vaguely stick to their roots in the world & arent something the player needs to rely on to learn more about something in the game

[full hemlock]

Yesss exactly that's literally what I thought when they first came out

[rustic horizon]

yee

AI should only be used for shit posts like the bigfoot crap or brute forcing better Computer Science solutions so everyone has access to the best solution n such & so its not buried within the internet or gatekept by money

[full hemlock]

That's certainly a way of thinking...

[rustic horizon]

& definitely not put into any robots, especially ones by skynet

[rustic horizon]

Basically Entertainment & bettering society with the best solutions

[full hemlock]

Seeing how realistic ai videos are getting recently I'm sooo getting scammed by the time I'm 20 😭

[full hemlock]

Ah then it's certainly a way of wording*

[rustic horizon]

ah, just wokeup, dunno

[full hemlock]

Oh right it's like 4 in the morning for you? Or 8

Something like that

[rustic horizon]

8

[full hemlock]

2 hours ahead of me, but in the opposite M

Get it

PM

Haha

Idk what they're called

[full hemlock]

You have any new mind blowing creations you made recently?

(Basically any cv2 you make ever)

[rustic horizon]

nah, i think i hit that stage Cryptic & Pancake992, etc hit where u just know everything u want/need to know, that u know of. & some the things u want to make & projects you abandoned from procastination wouldnt be worth it unless they depended on a more reliable system to squeeze the most efficiency, but then those reliable dependancies are too annoying to make bc tedious, gotta make it the best, making workarounds for rec bugs n such

well actually not sure u saw car physics

[rustic horizon]

but generally i think im pretty fed up with rec & done what i want. Atp i should start doing what i been avoiding. Researching real developer stuff like Windows OS, GPU interfacing, etc

[full hemlock]

Who 😭

[rustic horizon]

?

[full hemlock]

Yee I get it

[full hemlock]

Never heard of GPU interfacing before

[full hemlock]

Basically mastered rr cv2

[rustic horizon]

ah, basically research Vulkan, openGL

[rustic horizon]

technically did that long time ago, just my projects were made for fun/bc i wanted to, my interests. Which reflect how ive mastered it. Doing the projects just add experience so i can recreate the experiences elsewhere, like memorizing & understanding how Dijkstra/A*/Vector Field work so can use in other things n such

[full hemlock]

"Not to flex or anything" vibes

[rustic horizon]

ye UwU

[full hemlock]

[rustic horizon]

👉 👈

[full hemlock]

[rustic horizon]

just sayin tho, u can master it anytime, it dosent take insane projects to prove anything tho, i made those bc i wanted to. U could master it & not even know it

[full hemlock]

Well I believe that the poor also deserve to be enriched with this knowledge so

🤚 User and password please 😊

[rustic horizon]

since im at this stage, i've also felt more generous about my gatekeeping since i've been holding back explaining things all these years id gladly teach bc it would be what i have wanted

& bc ill hopefully not be using rec as much for projects anymore

[full hemlock]

I'd love to be the first to sign up for this 😊

Whenever you do explain things you've previously gatekept I wouldn't mind a lil @full hemlock on the side
