wip I suck at level design

and textures

[azure flume]

Everyone sucks on their first attempt, keep working on it!

[fickle zinc]

try sketching out the level first before you start working on it

im gonna fucking annihilate you

BRO

ONE MORE MESSAGE

AND UR NOT LEAVING THIS CHANNEL ALIVE

[fickle zinc]

argue with them

[spare scarab]

that's not the fucking point

i cannot fucking believe you jsut slapped me with this shit I CANNOT

i'd go on a massive tangent but i'll spare this channel

it won't handle that much profanity

[fast vault]

Some more combat gameplay

[spare scarab]

this game honestly looks so sick

[fast vault]

I appreciate it!

[outer parrot]

i have bepinex configured to open a cmd when launching the game for debug information, but it always appears on the same monitor as the game and i have to tab out and drag it over to my second monitor every time i launch

is there a way to have it appear on a different monitor by default?

Vriska and Memster

[long leaf]

so true

[woeful hazel]

I’m out of the loop why does everyone in this channel want memster dead

[pastel cave]

Vriska x Memster erotic fanfiction

[severe fulcrum]

Yes

[sudden imp]

Good ending

[pastel cave]

honestly good ending

[pure jackal]

Bad modeling skills + blatant refusal to learn or utilize instructions which end up in him running into the same problem we told him about 5 times before, and acting like we never brought it up before

[fickle zinc]

honestly the points boxes just made are somewhat valid , though what isn't valid is vriska constantly trying to make a big deal about my grammar and how i type ,despite the fact i don't think anyone else really cares though. and you know if they don't understand it they could just ignore it .

[pure jackal]

Why do you hit space twice a lot

Like seriously

[fickle zinc]

my hands type faster than i can think

[pure jackal]

Then just take the time to go back and delete the extra spaces

Discord has an edit button

[unique crag]

Ive seen him talking about your grammar once

[spare scarab]

I couldn't give less of a shit how u type man

I asked you once or twice about an oddity and moved on

[fickle zinc]

there where better ways of handling that

[pure jackal]

Why did you zoom in on your browser and then screencap a bulk of it

[arctic radish]

I gotta say
Godot's resource handling is
I just gutted out the old Save system that used JSON for one that uses godot's own resource file, and MAN knowing I don't have to deal with any of my save dictionaries turning into strings in the future is actually amazing

[merry lotus]

welcome to #general-modding over here we have the dev rooms and this padded one is for memester

[unique crag]

He is like a fucking RNG

[fickle zinc]

a better term would be tzeentch

[fickle zinc]

gonna be using blockbench from now on

[pure jackal]

Why

[spare scarab]

because, obviously

[fast vault]

When the last enemy thinks that they still stand a chance after seeing you destroy everyone else in the room

[sudden imp]

Shared update times as wrath

will be get screenshot this coming saturday or the next one?

[pure jackal]

Next

[cunning wing]

wtf weekend ruined.....

gonna have to cancel my NBK screenshot party smh

[fickle zinc]

automaticly creates tris

thats kinda cool

[fickle zinc]

custom texturing

[fickle zinc]

and its completed

[torpid oak]

fixed volumetric lighting and some issues with distance fog clipping over the fog whenever there wasnt anything behind the light within a certain distance

basically any part where the light beam is exposed to the sky would be cut off before

also all textures except the tree bark and dirt texture made by me C:

technically also the shovel handle

but those are all placeholders

better look

[spare scarab]

fuck yea

[torpid oak]

also ignore the creature of the depths lurking in the shadow

[merry lotus]

was bored so i followed a C tutorial on how to make a software rasterizer

it's cool

[tranquil oracle]

Now make it multi-threaded

[humble herald]

I mean you've already made the damn thing might as well go all the way

New enemy WIP

[arctic radish]

I smell Maximo

I smell Mocap animations

[fast vault]

Yup!

I use Mixamo to fill in some basic animations that might be too time consuming, but I gotta go through with some custom animations for her

All of her attack animations need to be custom

[merry lotus]

I used to use mixamo for animations

but now I just use it for auto rigging

[fast vault]

Oh yeah it's really nice for it

I actually ran into a strange bug with this model when importing its fbx to Unity. The hands were rotated incorrectly even though they were rotated properly in Blender and in Mixamo

so I uploaded it to Mixamo and then downloaded their exported FBX for it to show up properly

[jagged loom]

mixamo never gave me good results

[pure jackal]

She a little hot-headed dontchu think

[arctic radish]

Okay now make kkrieger

[fickle zinc]

texturing is next

[severe fulcrum]

Reminds me a bit of dusk but im glad you managed to start texturin guns asdf

[fast vault]

Man, I could never stream my dev process because a lot of the time is just spent sitting down trying to figure out what I need it to do and then how to get it to do that

[unique crag]

Guy got roasted for blender so bad he switched to another app

Be 1521

Plunderin with me crew

[fickle zinc]

you do realize this portable into blender right

[unique crag]

Why would you port it to another app just to model it?

[fickle zinc]

other modifiers like subdivide are in blender and i dont wanna go through the process of dealing with uvs

[untold niche]

Uh oh, Vriska is typing

[spare scarab]

1. what
2. you could use the same techniques you're using here in blender (as in, just making each part of the model a single color)
3. you'll have to deal with uvs at one point or another anyway if you plan on making anything other than single-color model parts

[unique crag]

You literally cant escape UVs

[spare scarab]

^ this pretty much

[spare scarab]

again, unless you only ever plan on doing plain colors and nothing else

which doesnt leave much room for growth

[fickle zinc]

they already do it for you

[unique crag]

I just wish my mind could have been ported to blender so that I can texture my objects simply by using my mind

[spare scarab]

1. bro
2. blender does uv's for you in the same way
3. this will have a massive seam down the middle if it's anything other than a single-color texture

[fickle zinc]

yeah and you remebered what happened last time i tried to do something low poly in blender

[unique crag]

I dont get whats new

[spare scarab]

i can literally produce the same exact looking uv for any of my models by projecting from view

but it wont be ideal at all cuz there's more to a model than just the side view

[unique crag]

Are all those edges even necessary??

[spare scarab]

wait fr why is it so complex it's just cubes

[spare scarab]

im not sure what you're trying to show me here cuz i've literalyl said your uv works fine with single color textures and that's about it

[unique crag]

Dang and you need all those edges and turning quads into tris just for the sake of adding plain colord

Can you at least paint on the textures inside the app?

[spare scarab]

unless you did the equivalent of blender's smart uv mapping which is like, not an argument against blender at all

[fickle zinc]

look i cant really answer your questions all as i can say is just go ask them on thier discord

[spare scarab]

holy shit triple space

[unique crag]

Huh?

Hsave you made the barrels and other objects separate from the initial cubes?

[pure jackal]

Yes

Ofc he has

[unique crag]

Amazing

Please

memester

please

Use extrude

ok?

[fickle zinc]

for love of christ just go to thier discord server and your questions can be answered

[spare scarab]

this is literally a statement directed at you and not a blockbench question

[fickle zinc]

because block bench was programmed in a way so that it does this thing automatically . look how this was made has nothing to do with how i made it

[spare scarab]

???

" how this was made has nothing to do with how i made it"

what the FUCK?

[fickle zinc]

jesus christ just go to the goddam discord server im not answering any more questions

[spare scarab]

wh-

[fickle zinc]

just go

[spare scarab]

what the fuck are you on about i havent asked anything about blockbench

[pure jackal]

I

I think he's lost it

Too high for children to interrupt men's business

[arctic radish]

Ladies and gents I can finally finish my game’s music and SFX now that I have my new headphone earmuffs

Which is one of the 3 remaining things I need to complete until I can release my game

[fast vault]

Ever casually eat the mass of a child?

[unique crag]

He is either clinically insane or is all-time high af

[unique crag]

Literally Blender does the exact same thing its just your inability to use the fucking program properly

[fickle zinc]

hmm i probably didnt explain it properly it, perhaps what i ment to say is that i didnt really have an answer for that question and made a guess that the things uv map was automatically already done when i completed modeling, look im not good at answering these kinds of questions, so the only thing i could say is just ask the people at the blockbench discord as to what this thing is supposed to be because for all as i know it doesnt seem to be a big issue.

tldr, i dont care that the uvs look that way, so just move on and forget the thing happended ok

any who heres something from about 2 years a go

[arctic radish]

Current List of what I have Implemented rn for the game:
-3 events (out of my planned 6 )
-3 Bosses (or just 2 if you don't include a OHKO one), however only 1 of the 3 can attack the player (I need to give more visual feedback for attacks)
-7 rooms (of the 7 rooms, 3 contains Events tied to the 3 bosses, and 2 are supposed to be interactive rooms where you get to do things like point and click, however I haven't been able to figure out a solid way of handling extra room interactivity that doesn't interfere with the gameplay loop of ???.) out of my estimated 18 planned rooms
-3 SFX (God help me)
-7 music tracks (I'm still missing: "Wandering theme" (Plays when you're just wandering rooms), Event music for 1 of the events, and "Darkness" music for when your player has low Sight)
-1 attack out of the planned 3 (Melee, Item, and Ability)

[spare scarab]

[humble herald]

just don't feed into it at this point

[pure jackal]

Let me put this in a way that should be a bit more clear

When he asked "wtf is this" he was referring to the geometry, not the UV.
The models that you're making in blockbench are even LESS optimized than what you made in blender

[pure jackal]

Now turn on wireframe mode

[unique crag]

Bro do you even read what I fucking say or youve made up a narrative out of personally picked words from my messages?? I literally asked and told you why would you use Blockbench if Blender is ultimately a much better platform for modelling, whaterver youve done in blockbench you can do much better in blender

[unique crag]

His laptop will probably explode out of the unnecessary edges he had done

[fickle zinc]

this might not be the right answer however according to their faq (Box UV is a UV mapping mode in which all UV sides of a cube are stuck together (similar to a cut up dice) and their size depends on the dimensions of the cube. In comparison to per-face UV-mapping, individual faces cannot be mapped separately, and the size of the UV map cannot be changed individually.
Box UV is currently mandatory in the Modded Entity format and optional in all other formats.

You can change the UV Mode in the project settings (File > Project...). )

[unique crag]

Do you know english?

Hey

quick question

[pure jackal]

Technically

[unique crag]

Do you know english

Just a bit

tiny tiny bit

🤏

This much

[pure jackal]

Memester I am afraid that you seem to be physically unable to understand geometrical redering and optimization

[unique crag]

Its kinda like one of those shake for a wish balls

[spare scarab]

Listen, LISTEN man

[unique crag]

You shake it and you get a random message

[spare scarab]

i know you have a knack for picking up a term and rolling with it putting it anywhere

but

1. this doesnt say anything about anything, at all, it's just a random fact
2. bro im tired im ending it at point 2 i have better shit to take care of

[unique crag]

Let's see what the 🎱 will say

[spare scarab]

ok listen man

that's not the way to go about an argument

when u dont know wtf are you even talking about then why start

[fickle zinc]

i thought you asked them about this

[spare scarab]

asked who, asked what

[pure jackal]

He's actually losing it

[unique crag]

Hey guys I think he did ask

Did you ask

I think I did he when the asked he did it I he

He

[pure jackal]

The question is what is the question is what is the question is

[spare scarab]

i read your convo and i think u lost it dude

[pure jackal]

The answer is why

[spare scarab]

listen
if you're at the point where the fucking tech support cant even grasp the nature of your issue and says the problem (if there is one) is in how YOU made the model

then you gotta relfect a little

[spare scarab]

pretty much plaz

pretty much

[fickle zinc]

hmm oh i just added 4 cubes in a group then seperatly moddeling each one apart with loop cuts and extrusions

[spare scarab]

alright man

i think you need to head to bed

[humble herald]

Maybe modeling isn't your thing dude

[spare scarab]

like you can totally keep going noone's gonna stop you
but we're trying to get you to understand how this whole thing even operates man

you're approaching all of this from a wrong angle

every time you learn a little new thing you grab onto it and latch like it's the only tool/term you need to know

some people can grab 3d modelling and roll with it after having some understanding of how 3d objects even exist and work

in general

but if you dont have that kind of background knowledge and refuse to go deeper than someone forcing you to learn the term "uv map" then you wont get far

[pure jackal]

Too many words for him

[spare scarab]

and by "background knowledge" i literally mean at least understanding what the model is made out of and how you can manipulate it, alongside how a texture is applied and so on and so forth

[pure jackal]

Use pictures

[humble herald]

Pictures won't do it, I think he really just doesn't understand beyond surface level

[spare scarab]

you CAN learn from youtube tutorials but you need to actually pay attention to what people tell you outside of them

[humble herald]

And doesn't really want to invest more time into it

[fickle zinc]

you know what im just gonna leave this server an continue filling out forms for my job application

[spare scarab]

if you actually have-

oh fuck off dude

[humble herald]

if you want to alright

[spare scarab]

i was trying to help you but whatever man

[humble herald]

What's the application?

[untold niche]

[unique crag]

He doesnt get surface level too if you wask

Ask me

[untold niche]

Bye bye memester

[spare scarab]

see where that shit gets you

see you in a month

[misty sparrow]

Lol he left after bitching to modmail

[spare scarab]

ofc

[humble herald]

Yeah vriska just eh take a break from him

[shy hatch]

Good job vriska

[unique crag]

Go new blood

[shy hatch]

I'm proud of you

[spare scarab]

🫡

[misty sparrow]

Imagine not being an adult and just blocking someone

[unique crag]

I think they are gonna like you memester

[misty sparrow]

Holy shit

[shy hatch]

You successfully bullied a specimen into leaving

[humble herald]

He's a lost cause tbh

[unique crag]

New blood looks out exactly ppl like you

[spare scarab]

this is actually the third time i made him leave

he even blocked me several times

[humble herald]

nice

[spare scarab]

but ig he just wanted to open my messages anyway

not even my intention

[humble herald]

you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink

[spare scarab]

guy's just a child i think

[unique crag]

I think he is maybe not the sanest person

Like genuinely

[shy hatch]

Ok

Please give me a rundown

I'm just curious

[humble herald]

Of?

[spare scarab]

i can give you the WHOOOOOLe thing in dms

[shy hatch]

Of the whole saga

[spare scarab]

it's a fucking ride

[shy hatch]

Go for it man

[misty sparrow]

Yes plz

[unique crag]

Memester is the bestest blebder modeller!!!

[spare scarab]

from the very start

alright gimme a moment

[misty sparrow]

Send it to Sarm

[humble herald]

his antics? Yeah I'm just a lurker here

[misty sparrow]

So he can share with us mods

[spare scarab]

it'll take a while, gimme a minute

[untold niche]

I solemnly promise to this server. If I ever get enough money, I will arrange for Vriska and Memester to meet irl

[misty sparrow]

Yep yep no rush

[humble herald]

Don't that'll get violent

[unique crag]

Actually can you dm me the very start as well?

[shy hatch]

👍

[humble herald]

yeah also am curious

[misty sparrow]

Iirc the tldr is that he makes extremely basic models and you’ve been trying to help him and he just gets pissy, yeah?

[unique crag]

He cant even make the most basic of models man

Like

Instead making loop cuts and extruding, basically modelling smth out of ONE cube he ibstead makes 1 thousabds for each separate part

[arctic radish]

he refuses to understand how to optimize model, workflow ,etc,etc
even when we give Very insightful info at the start

[misty sparrow]

And he’s going for job applications with stuff like https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/431185291831803904/1032662903054143611/unknown.png

[unique crag]

I wonder if he uses a fucking ruler jut to measure the shut

[pure jackal]

Yup

[unique crag]

He had unuronically applied for new blood before

[humble herald]

Yeah ok he's not getting anywhere with that

I'm a novice modeler but I can do way better than that jesus

[unique crag]

Oh but thats really good comoared to other models of his

[humble herald]

Why was he so focused on spamming here for a job anyway

[misty sparrow]

Lol I bet I know how Dave replied to that application

[humble herald]

I remember when that was a thing

[unique crag]

Wait until you see a random floating vertucles around objects

[misty sparrow]

“Lol”
no reply

[humble herald]

Dave probably just ignored it yeah

[unique crag]

Or one blebder file which actually holds like 10 different projects ibside

[humble herald]

Man's probably never heard of constructive criticism

[unique crag]

He even lied for the application

[humble herald]

Oh?

What did he do?

[unique crag]

Yeah he had said he had 3 years of modelling experience

[humble herald]

No fucking way

[misty sparrow]

Oh fuck yeah

[arctic radish]

Memester actually reminded me of someone who literally came to me for Blender tips and was a beginner and then boasted to me that they "Are Game Ready and Hirable in only 3 week and look how long you still have to go, Cassy" when I pointed out their flaws with their model's rig (they used Autoweight paint for everything and didn't know how Mirror modifier works)

[misty sparrow]

Classic

[unique crag]

Clearly it shows lmfao

[pure jackal]

The best model he made probably is that last AK variant
If you exclude the ngons and the separated mesh that was separated for no reason and was left separated despite us going "you can ctrl+j all of this and join it together and it'll be fine this doesn't need to be split"

[unique crag]

Its part of the gun mechanic bro

Your character will disassemble and assemble the gun each time he reloads

[arctic radish]

That actually sounds cool as a mechanic

but also could be incredibly infuriating from a playing standpoint

[unique crag]

Yeah but it would feel generally useless, def cool tho

[pure jackal]

You don't remove the sight to reload an AK

[unique crag]

Yeh exactly

[misty sparrow]

Wh

What

It’s just a grey brick

[arctic radish]

How why I didn't see that one

[misty sparrow]

Is that supposed to be a gun

[pure jackal]

Jab

Look in pinned

Most recent pinned message

[misty sparrow]

Oh fuck yeah

That dudes a mega idiot

Less go

Ok now I know the lore he gon get the full jab experience when he rejoins

[unique crag]

No no this is clearly part of the mechanic

[pure jackal]

If he left 3 times already

He will be back

[misty sparrow]

I will make it the last

[pure jackal]

I literally asked him if he thought it was the bolt, if he thought it moved back and forth to eject the bullet up

[unique crag]

No dont make it the last please

I want him to fuek this chat further with his abominations

[unique crag]

Thats quite the fucking bolt

Imagine an ak working like that

[misty sparrow]

I need to check this channel more

There’s entire lore wars going on

[unique crag]

He even has posts in general art lmao

[pure jackal]

#general-modding message

We genuinely tried

[humble herald]

General modding without memester is normal indie dev

[pure jackal]

I made a whole friggin video slowly showing him how to finish his AK model because it was pretty much actually complete and almost usable if he just did what was in the video

[humble herald]

Memester just took everything personally

[unique crag]

Then he scrapped the project

[pure jackal]

Then he used Blockbuilder

And just put cubes together

And then converted that into mesh tris

[unique crag]

Each separately

[pure jackal]

Aka all 100s of cubes he used were split into 2 tris

On all 6 sides

[humble herald]

WHY

[unique crag]

He found out about tris and he turned everything into tris

[pure jackal]

Idfk

[unique crag]

Definitely boosted up the optimisation!!!

[humble herald]

How is it that I've like

[misty sparrow]

Fyi he was squeaking in modmail

[humble herald]

uh

What did he say?

[misty sparrow]

Gave us a sob story that amounted to “vriska says stuff I don’t like”

[unique crag]

Omg ppl hate my models :()) :++(((

I wonder why

[slate python]

here's a winchester

oh

[humble herald]

Yours?

[slate python]

probably wrong time to post

[humble herald]

No it's lovely

[unique crag]

Oh hey im a priest now epic win

[glossy hazel]

DO A FLIP

[humble herald]

Looks really nice, keep it up

[slate python]

Did memester do something again?

[humble herald]

Yeah he had another baby tantrum

[glossy hazel]

congrats

[slate python]

again?

[humble herald]

Yeah

Seems to have left again

[misty sparrow]

He did

[pure jackal]

He started talking in an actual cricle and didn't answer our questions and then left for the third time

[slate python]

lets wait for him to come back

[glossy hazel]

well that sounds familiar

[humble herald]

How you liking modelmaking so far kono?

[slate python]

Its an endless loop, he makes a crappy model, people say how to make it better, he gets mad, leaves, comes back and posts more crappy models.

[misty sparrow]

I told him to block vriska and he was like “that won’t work” like idk what to say dude be an adult

[slate python]

Its pretty good

still having troubles with UV's and seam marking but i'm enjoying it

[humble herald]

You and everyone in the world lmao

Keep at it, you're doing great

[slate python]

thanks mate

[misty sparrow]

Kono modeling? Very based

[unique crag]

Be 1521

[slate python]

aw hell yeah

[unique crag]

Plunderin with me crew

[humble herald]

Heh nice so far

[misty sparrow]

Check out the samus i modeled guys

I took inspiration from memesters work

[humble herald]

ah yeah you know what would make it better is that you could add some definition to her arms

[humble herald]

I can barely see em right now

EAUGH

[slate python]

I'm gonna cry

my eyes hurt by looking at it

[humble herald]

When I get home I'll post like the first real model I made for ref jesus

[pure jackal]

I maded a box

[slate python]

what for

[untold niche]

meat

[slate python]

HAH

AHAHAH

FUNNY

VERY FUNNY MY MAN

Good job

[misty sparrow]

DOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO

this guy got joaks

[arctic radish]

but does the meat come out of the box once inside?

that's the real question we should be asking

[spare scarab]

i sent sarm the whoooole deal

he'll share soon prolly

have fun readin

yes it took me this long

[humble herald]

No worries

[spare scarab]

but it's pretty comprehensive

[humble herald]

Sounds like you went above and beyond for this guy

[spare scarab]

if only you knew

[humble herald]

Wonder if he was the same guy asking about a quake 3 map compiler

[sonic cloud]

Source Engine moment

[arctic radish]

me when

[humble herald]

How many goddamn polygons do you have

No spooky scary entities or nextbots lurking around haha

I was planning for it to be a down to earth map. Though I had an idea for a seemingly normal RP, but with a surprising twist. I haven't even begin to write anything in Lua, so I'm obviously going to make a functioning map first

[shy hatch]

oh shit i guess i should send it here huh

[pure jackal]

To clarify

I joined in like, week 2 to his first return
And only made that meme earlier this month after a month of him ignoring this whole chat trying to help him, including 10 videos of me going through his models, explaining whats wrong, and showing him how to fix his existing geometry and having it look the same while being geometrically valid

[azure flume]

What's the difference between a 'brush' and a 'model'?

[untold niche]

Basically a brush can't be concave

[azure flume]

What is the purpose of having a different word for that?

[spare scarab]

Cuz if someone asks why they cant make a hole in a wall in their editor, you'll have to explain why this specific type of 3d object can't be concave

So its a diff term for that type of 3d thing

At least that's my best guess

Im talking out of my ass

[azure flume]

Is it like a performance thing? like putting a shape without holes on the screen is 100x less demanding than putting a shape with a hole on the screen?

[pure jackal]

Basically the geometry doesn't know how to sort itself

[arctic radish]

Indexing (yaaaay)

[humble herald]

Not enough of a 3d graphics programmer to even begin to understand this

Is it like because of the data structure used to actually store it or?

[merry lotus]

I think it's collision

convex collision detection is faster than concave collision detection

[humble herald]

huh

That's actually a good point

[tranquil oracle]

You can assume a lot of things about the object when it's convex that don't apply if it's concave

So there's more room for optimization and other tricks

Concavity is just a complicated beast in general

It has implications on rendering too when transparency is involved

[humble herald]

right ok

my domain is entirely just software engineering so I've like no knowledge of the underlying software

[sonic cloud]

For Source games: a model is something you take from the model browser and place on your map. Brushes are 3D geometric shapes that are created and textured manually in the Hammer Editor. Brushes seal leaks and create visleafs, while models do not. Brushes are used for most of the game world geometry, while models are used for NPCs and some environment objects that require more detail

[wraith beacon]

Honestly BSP kinda stinky

I mean I probably am kinda stinky but BSP is stinkier IMO.

No I didn’t. I used to do HL2 mapping in high school but I got into CSGO mapping and environment art when the Covid lockdown started. I’m only 21 haha. Currently working as a surfacing artist on skate 4 though :)

[rustic holly]

Thanks!!

[unique trellis]

you are magister of hammer

[rustic holly]

Heh. 😆 I mostly used Blender to create custom geo for a lot of the map. I mainly just used Hammer for placing objects and lighting and stuff like that. The only actual brushes in the map are all invisible and used for visibility calculations lol.

I basically ended up modeling the entire level on my own over the course of its production.

[humble herald]

nice workaround considering hammer's shortcomings

Came out great, and if I ever run csgo again maybe

[pure jackal]

are the live action bits stock footage or did you record them?

I made the train doors, but they end up in the wrong position

[humble herald]

Do you think they're colliding with each other or is it general hammer shenanigans

[sonic cloud]

Well, even when there was only a single door, it was still proceeding to leave gaps behind

so I don't think that the doors are colliding

[humble herald]

hammer it is

not sure how to even begin with that mess, but I'd do some research online for it

Map looks good so far if that's any consolation

[desert shard]

Honestly the CSGO map is impressive quality wise
as a 3D modeler, I can see a lot of the techniques used when you modeled it in blender.
And I gotta say you are balling in the big leagues with the texture mapping side of things even through iirc you said you use Substance, which eases a lot of the issues with the actual making of the textures, but still ballin'

Does anyone know how to fix this unity error? It only happens when the game is built, for some reason, and seems to have no clear trigger. Sometimes it does it near instantly, other times it waits several minutes before doing it. I've tried every solution I could find online and nothing works. This is the log file output for the error

[C:\buildslave\unity\build\Runtime\Camera\Camera.cpp line 3554]

Screen position out of view frustum (screen pos 959.000000, 540.000000) (Camera rect 0 0 1920 1080)
UnityEngine.StackTraceUtility:ExtractStackTrace () (at C:/buildslave/unity/build/Runtime/Export/Scripting/StackTrace.cs:37)
UnityEngine.Camera:ScreenPointToRay (UnityEngine.Vector2,UnityEngine.Camera/MonoOrStereoscopicEye)
UnityEngine.Camera:ScreenPointToRay (UnityEngine.Vector3,UnityEngine.Camera/MonoOrStereoscopicEye) (at C:/buildslave/unity/build/Runtime/Export/Camera/Camera.bindings.cs:169)
UnityEngine.Camera:ScreenPointToRay (UnityEngine.Vector3) (at C:/buildslave/unity/build/Runtime/Export/Camera/Camera.bindings.cs:170)
UnityEngine.SendMouseEvents:DoSendMouseEvents (int) (at C:/buildslave/unity/build/Modules/InputLegacy/MouseEvents.cs:167)

It destroys the player and switches the camera to one of my map cams and prints "Screen position out of view frustum (screen pos 959.000000, 540.000000) (Camera rect 0 0 1920 1080)" to the console nonstop

I've made it so it prints the local scale, FOV, far clip plane, near clip plane, and rect of both the player camera and the weapon model camera to the console, and neither change at all before or after the error hits.

I've tried having the build run as windowed, maximized window, full screen window, exclusive full screen, no differences.

I've tried messing with the scaling of the UI, making it constant pixel size, constant physical size, stretch, no difference.

I've tried deleting and remaking both cameras from scratch, no difference.

[wooden tusk]

nice

[crimson tapir]

[wooden tusk]

I'm sorry

[crimson tapir]

It's aight

[crimson tapir]

After setting it up to output the rect, far plane, near plane, FOV, and scale of the 2 cameras, as well as the current screen position, they still look fine even after the error hits. Hell, the output even says that the screen pos is still at (0, 0), contradicting the error saying it is not.

Does anyone have a good idea for an "exploding barrel" or "bounce pad" prefab in a snowball fight themed game?

Also I fixed that error, it was a problem with the client side interpolation script occasionally dividing by zero

[jagged loom]

maybe ice could be a speed pad?

[jagged loom]

broken ice in water thats bouyant is a bounce pad maybe?

Maybe it's somehow being written to where your textures are stored in memory?

the "textures" are just 1s and 0s stored in an int array because I hate logic and common sense

so no I don't think so

[ashen shard]

well to access them, I'd need to find a consistent static pointer, no?

[tranquil oracle]

Nope

[ashen shard]

hmmm

[tranquil oracle]

What are you trying to do?

[ashen shard]

please explain some more

[ashen shard]

make a simple cheat table (C++ menu/cheat later) for ULTRAKILL that's consistent

since my static pointers for health seem to not work from mission to mission

[tranquil oracle]

Ultrakill already has cheats built-in, and you could add more by just using an existing modding framework like BepInEx or MelonLoader

Using Cheat Engine or something like that is just gonna be painful

[ashen shard]

that's why I want to do it, I want to learn

it is painful

[tranquil oracle]

I recommend looking up the usual approaches to modding software written in C#, which applies to Unity games like Ultrakill

You generally don't want to use static addresses for those because the addresses almost always change

Since it's usually dynamically allocated by the runtime

[ashen shard]

well the addresses do change, but not the pointers afaik.
GH has some tutorials that I'm trying to follow, and basically you find addresses for the thing you want, and pointerscan each time until you have ~50 results, or a few that you want to add to the cheat table
if those work, great

(compare the pointerscans each time to wittle down the results)

[tranquil oracle]

A pointer is an address

But what I'm saying is that pointer scanning just isn't a good approach for something like Ultrakill, since it's a Unity game there's no need to scan for anything, since you can retrieve the values directly

[ashen shard]

you can?
hmmmmm

gotta learn more then

(me)

[tranquil oracle]

As mentioned earlier, check out BepInEx or MelonLoader, which are frameworks for injecting C# code into Unity games

You can compile your own C# DLL against Ultrakill's Assembly-CSharp.dll, which will give you access to all of the types etc

[ashen shard]

alright, I'll look into it

tysm

[fringe gate]

The map from the one yt video?

[unique crag]

Looks pretty cool but what if you could possibly change the button panel with those old soviet ones, you will simply make it so the reat of the unused button look burned or missing out of the panel

Just a thought

[brave geode]

that looks sick as hell

[long leaf]

mfw I forgot to turn on the anchor button so my UI is screwed for no reason

[rustic holly]

Yeah

[rustic holly]

Thanks man

[pure jackal]

Actual bean

[severe fulcrum]

I could squish em

[arctic radish]

workin' on UI stuff

[arctic radish]

I just realized somethin
Rule 8 talks about "Software exploits" and "Game hacks"
issssn't modding literally both of those 2 things if the mod community doesn't have an official way of modding a game? (akin to how most unity games you gotta go through hell to even set up the modding stuff. Usually using some 3rd party software that exploits or injects it's own code through it's own means?)

Late night Cassy thoughts while I slowly start to while coding my prototype character base for OST

it is nearing 1 AM
leaving the tile editing here for tonight

also no I've already had 4 people say "piss door", it's supposed to be gold

[pure jackal]

Cheese door

And here's some showcase of how it looks in practise:

[grave geyser]

So if you feel like shooting some heads off people, go ahead and try this.

[glossy hazel]

yes

just yes

[untold schooner]

bro why is the carpet in the wall bro

[sonic cloud]

Typical soviet/post-soviet fashion of putting carpets on the walls. Though I probably have to move it a bit, because the carpets are usually placed right above the beds or couches

[spare scarab]

i fucking swear i've seen this exact room on the bottom screenshot

it was a meme video with a kid hitting himself with nunchucks

[untold schooner]

oh yeah ive seen it

its pretty neat tbh

[untold schooner]

in 4 billion years the andromeda galaxy will crash into the milky way galaxy,with no damage. and we will become milk-dromeda.

[sonic cloud]

I decided to use a fancier looking carpet

[glossy hazel]

now that looks cool
