finally worked out the scope aiming
now i'm giving a choice between retro aiming (default), scope aiming (uses separate sensitivity) and free aiming, which is unused for now but it acts like the scoped one, while using the default sensitivity
you could in theory create ADS with this now
will be a cool addition to the SDK
stil gotta figure out why the fov gets stuck SOMETIMES when i release the button
it happens so randomly
okay found the reason
game is literally playable now
man this is shaping up so nicely now

oh man I really like the reticle moving with the recoil
slender knoll
ye I love it
sharp vortex
dunno if that's intended to stay but honestly it should
hazy sky
it does
the crosshair is projected from the barrel of the gun so the crosshair's position is almost always a hit
I say almost because of some minor random inaccuracy
in Medal of honor, the crosshair dictated where the bullet went, I flipped it around and made the gun tell the crosshair where to go

drops to 10 fps around 100000 particles
and from 300000 particles onward the fps stays around 2-3
hazy sky
on further inspection, medal of honor and underground seems to use shape keys for the animations
or something similar because im not seeing rigs and the models deform in ways I couldn't do so with bone rigs
tranquil oracle
It would have been regular vertex animation
Skeletal animation is quite CPU intensive which would have been hard to do efficiently on the PS1

Zombie beat me to it... but considering it's PS1 -- it's probably skeletal animation that has been baked down to Vertex animation ( which today we call "shape keys" ) - it's actually the same workflow as the first few Quake games
it was simply cheaper to do, hardware wise. Although it had a fair few limitations of its own - such as no additive animation support
to achieve an effect like that today, you would want to combine skeletal animation either with Shape Keys / Blend Shapes ( today we limit them to faces, mostly ) or... add more bones to the rig lol, although that's not free either
animation blen ding techniques, the vertex position accuracy required & the massively increased vertex count in today's meshes made full body Vertex animation simply not worth it
so much so that Quake sourceports even realized this and went "we could do with a skeletal solution ourselves" hence iqm 
hazy sky
bruh
makes sense tbh
but MOH animations are really detailed and they combine together sometimes, it's hella good
on a side note should I add burst fire weapons
did ww2 even have burst fire weapons
earnest lily
combining together =/= additive
"burst fire" as it exists in games ( one click = more than one bullet ) didn't quite exist irl
the M16 didn't fire three bullets per trigger press, the internal mechanism would cut itself off after three rounds had been fired ( SQUAD models this properly )
earnest lily
combining together =/= additive
a "trick" some games employed to utilize multiple animations at the same time ( such as rtcw or quake 3 ) was to physically split the legs from the upper chest, so you could have a running animation while the upper chest did firing recoil etc..
hazy sky
I know that
I'm just saying MOH doesn't have any of that
I have the models extracted and everything and each "frame" is it's own model basically
which is why I said shape key
pure jackal
Yeah thats how vertex animation works
Every frame is literally just a copy of the model
In that position
earnest lily

Ripping them would spawn a thousand unique models, yeah
but under the hood you have one model with its vertices getting deformed
or in some plugins you have a bunch of shape keys for each frame
blissful arch
material importing (these colors are diffuse values from the materials, not vertex colors)

there's some guides on how this functions but some of its modding applications including recreating rigs for Unreal Tournament and Quake 3 characters

I didn't use it here
earnest lily
hype shit
hazy sky
right click, do aiming
slender knoll
ahh ADS
hazy sky
like the scope except it doesn't zoom
in actuality it just doesn't unlock the mouse
the weapons are very modular so you can do ADS on them via code
the other thing is you can swap out the melee for secondary fire, or vice versa
I'll include a slamfire secondary on the trench gun with a shit ton of recoil but semi auto fast fire

new messaging system kinda working
hazy sky
its not working byeaatch
i forgot text formatting in godot was a pain in the ass
okay it kinda is working now
hazy sky
new messaging system at work
three types, Typing is what you see first, Instant is pop in, and Fading is what you see at the boxes
might add two more to Typing-Fade and Fading-Type where the first starts by typing and fades out, and the other is the other way around
oh, and you can set the text position so you can further customize the messages
so if you'd like goldeneye 64 kind of messages, you can set that as well
there are also sub-messages, with it's own position
they could be killfeed, could be ammo pickup, even objective text etc
they work identical to the messages, but they are separated
you can set the message duration, the animation durations, etc
oh and it uses the scene structure so you can just create 2D scenes for your messages where you can tune your font and it's sizing and instance that
and the message vertical offsets and the amount of messages as well
its pretty modular
toxic hemlock

not like that
just the HUD so its paired to the gun, not the HUD
structurally
behind the scenes
you wouldn't notice a single thing as an end user
it would mean custom ammo counters are far easier as well
toxic hemlock
yeah i think making like the shell graphics and maybe even some of the counter anims should be adjustable on a per-gun basis
hazy sky
whats counter anim
toxic hemlock
like if u had a tube-fed shotgun it could animate differently from a box magazine pistol
and that would be like a checkbox on the gun itself
or a double stack magazine as opposed to a single stack
it would just be like a drop down menu on the gun's property tab with whatever animation type u want
idk what im saying im insane
hazy sky
oh im not sure if i want to overdo it like that
i was thinking of that though, but this one struck the golden middle ground i think
hazy sky
i thought multiplayer would be much harder
Godot allows for multiplayer sync it seems

anybody can make an fps game, it's not about the style or art (you might even argue it's not even about the mechanics), it's about game feel/polish, intuitiveness, design, creativity/originality
imo the most important thing about making games, for the developer and player alike, is how they feel when being done with the project. no matter how much time you spend, if you feel good about yourself it's a good experience whether or not it "looks" good
and if you play a game with non-pbr/AAA graphics but the gameplay feels so well pronounced and fluid, it'll be impossible for anyone to convince you it's a bad game

at this point i'm going the extra mile and create anaconda
also i've implemented the difficulty quirks
eg harder difficulties have your gravitational pull heavier
but you'll have a bit more fuel to burn
that's how i remembered it
on easier difficulties, the ship is lighter, thrust is moderate
on normal it's a balance of rotational power and thrust, this is the intended mode
on hard, rotating is a lot slower, your ship is heavier but your thrust is also harder to compensate, plus a little bit slower fuel burn rate
so inching around is a bit of a chore on hard

my one problem is how the snake loses it's shape over time
whereas in the original game, the snake's path was constant and each segment moved the same amount as the other
basically acted like a wall

Thats rad
But the compass ;A;
hazy sky
i told you, modular HUD system
i'm merging signals so you can reuse each signal
that way you can have compass, aliens motion sensor, halo radar, whatever
i'm gonna have at least two presets, the basic MOH one with the ammo - weapon icon - reserve ammo setup, as well as the vanilla LOH one

also this is just ultrakill font

so where's the outline
muted stirrup
it says danger, its got this odd white part around the top edges
comes on when hp is low
hazy sky
do you just put a texture over it?
or do you disable the text altogether from rendering?
muted stirrup
i thiiink its part of the image/texture itself, since someone else implemented it for me, so its probs gonna need to be touched up outside the engine, its an easy fix but i havent gotten round to it yet 😅
hazy sky
probably texture filtering
hazy sky
okay it works now
i could probably make a new message scene to mimic alien:trilogy as well
merry lotus
is this replacing the old ui
hazy sky
no
i'm messing around with new UI to test the waters for what to add and what to generalize in terms of functions
old ui is the base ui
merry lotus
oh ok
hazy sky
added armor
not gonna use it myself but its great to have it
timesplitters fans can create timesplitters in its entirety
hazy sky
yes
basically functionally identical to the alien HUD
armor system now works as following: it just works
nah you have a damage absorption percentage that you can set from 0 to 100%
remaining damage gets transferred to health, and if armor runs out, remaining damage is still damaged to health
here i'm switching between 50% and 33% to mimic doom 1 and 2
hazy sky
yes
hazy sky
what if we could reach peak again,,,
hazy sky
chat
what if i made the movement controls into a component based system
and based on what i want, it would instance that movement control in
so what you see is the vanilla LOH controls
but allow for a quake-style movement set
or a timesplitters one where you're slippery and cannot jump
that way i wouldn't need to make like 21343 character scenes
stiff thorn
sounds cool, if not time-consuming... but why?
hazy sky
i said a few times that i intend to create a platform along with the game, to be moddable
creating separate movement handlers to mimic other games from this era is a pretty good thing i think
it's not exactly time consuming as i only have to set up the basic vanilla movement component, and the rest is up to the person modifying the game
and since i already have my movement script at the ready i just have to migrate it from the player to the component
stiff thorn
ah, right, I forgot about that key fact
well if it isn't that time-consuming or hard as you say, I don't see why not?
hazy sky
definitely need to cook
okay this could work
why is it like this

for being video, this rokoko thing is pretty nice
in theory if you have videos of someone online doing animation practice reference, and you have permission, you could just feed it into the program as well
or movies if the shot is stationary

OKAY
so, after a while of fucking around, i implemented an RPM system
the system before this took the animation's length and only then declared that you were free to fire
today that has been removed, and instead a timer is created whenever the gun is fired
60 / RPM number is the timer's formula
fuck i left the alien hud on
oh and now the animations interrupt
meaning it doesn't have to wait for the other to finish
i figured that one out a few days ago when making the sprite weapon
hazy sky
chat i feel like the compass is very brightly colored now
hazy sky
seems better?
hazy sky
yea
like the main issue i have with the armor is how there is no clear distinguishing between health and armor
they overlap, which is cool, but i don't know how to make them appear different
pure jackal
How is armor going to work
Is it a second healthbar like in goldeneye or is it like quake
hazy sky
depends
by default its a second health bar
but it can be like quake with percentage protection
what if the armor would be segmented and could only move per segment
pure jackal
If its a second healthbar, having a second ring around the health might help
In general it might be goood to thicken out the health bar part of the compass a bit to be more readable?
It was a pretty thick line in the original moh
hazy sky
i'd say it's still pretty readable
problem is if it was any more thicker it would cover more of the compass
that i don't want

Ain't nothing bad about prefering one over the other. It's your project, after all

i'd say it's still pretty readable
I think this one's cooler though, but that's just my opinion. Especially with the segmented armor half

maybe I'll make an option to toggle

people bitched about how the game has no UI and user experience is dogshit because you dont know where to go

Oh yeah I remember this XD
It's honestly sad that people are getting so used to games bombarding you with UI that you do not need blotting the screen

yeah maybe but I think this usually only happens when a game that doesnt conform to the conventional style of AAA games manages to get picked up by that said crowd

also ingore the mismatched icons
pure jackal
I was about to ask why its ammo counter was using rifle bullets instead of the pistol ones
hazy sky
it uses the smg bullets icon
its just comically oversized
rifle bullets look like this
(wip)
pure jackal
I thought the mp40 used the same bullets as the luger
Same with the thompson, I thought that used the same bullets as a 1911
hazy sky
do you see lugers here
hazy sky
cool tracers
now that i think of it i could also just make a weapon called unarmed and basically instance it into the player whenever they need to be unarmed
i already have a remove weapon function with an arg asking for a name
could just remove either that or the first in the index
i SWEAR to god i will start work on the viewmodel animations tomorrow or during the weekend
i'm sufficiently pissed at the incomplete state of everything but the fucking code

I was thinking about having voices protagonists
but not too voiced
maybe one or two lines per level/chapter
a few more if playing coop
I hate overly voiced characters (basically first two hours of fortunes run)
but I also hate protagonists who are voiced but so rarely speak
like selaco
it would make sense the character speaks less when alone as opposed to having a partner

mozah got better later in the game when she spoke less and her lines meant more but the shittalk and the common "document everything i see" trope is so fuckng bad
