I'm not that well versed in pathfinding so I want to do some research on different algorithms and how to generate navmeshes

If you want to use a navmesh, recast is the "standard" library, both Unity and Unreal use it for their implementation
limber bramble
I have no idea what the internal mechanisms are like for generating a navmesh
tranquil oracle
It's open source and has a sibling library called Detour that gives you agents
limber bramble
A* however is pretty simple once you grasp the general concepts. I've implemented it from scratch twice now, but those were in 2D projects with tile based maps

Hadn't heard of that before, that's clever

Hadn't heard of that before, that's clever
It is very neat.
I've been messing around with it a little, it does really seem to be one of those cases where something compresses better and looks better.

Implement Mipflooding.
blissful arch
i wonder what that is
wraith beacon
i wonder what that is
Texture dilation technique, it typically compresses way better than other ways of dilating textures.
And is also really simple (both in theory and also in computation)
blissful arch
yeah it actually looks cool
not a priority tbh
maybe when i implement my own texture loader and encoder
won't be before my model loader and encoder though :)
actually...
i think i'll do the texture loader first, seems more simple

I think it would be better as modding-general but I suppose we want to keep the name formatting uniform
the other modding channels are named like this is

obv modding would still be allowed here
slender knoll
also not like this is an issue lol

yeah I do think it would be better that way because this is more about people sharing their dev stuff and not modding existing games

something about it just doesn't feel right imo

Not powerful enough or looks off?
merry lotus
yeah it just doesn't feel that powerful
toxic hemlock
add like a frame of anticipation and draw out the recoil a couple frames, feels like the character's moving the shotgun up rapidly rather than the force of the rounds pushing it up
unique trellis
Maybe make the recoil more sudden?
toxic hemlock
i think its actually too sudden tbh
unique trellis
You could try looking up videos on videogame double barrel reloads to maybe get a reference of what you want
toxic hemlock
usually when i animate a gun shot the first frame i actually have the gun pointing down a bit to give a bit of anticipation without too much of a disconnect between input and action
small trick i picked up from looking at CS:S skins
unique trellis
Maybe have the hands move back to indicate the powerful blast
toxic hemlock
yeah something kinda like that, i think maybe either making the upwards recoil a little less exaggerated or giving it more time to reach it's peak will help sell it more
hazy sky
animation is hard........
i am struggling HARD with it as well
unique trellis
I'm dreading to go into the animation part of game dev
making and rigging the models is enough of a chore
hazy sky
?
honestly i would take a frame or two to move the weapon back, and then apply the upwards force
toxic hemlock
honestly animation is way more fun than rigging
merry lotus
animation is a lot more fun with curves than keyframes
toxic hemlock
keyframing is usually just like roughly outlining your desired motion, curves is where you really bring it out and refine it
unique trellis
I've def going here for advice on animation when I get to that point but it's going to be a bit awkward since I use a different rigging method
merry lotus
hazy sky
to me its honestly a bit too exaggerated and covers the screen for a sec
i'm going for exaggerated stuff as well but i try to keep up some visual clarity so you don't get overwhelmed by animations
mainly the unsilenced version of the beretta is the point of the video i couldn't be arsed to trim it
merry lotus
how about this
hazy sky

hey how do you import it like that
i have to fuck around with bone attachments and shit like that in godot you have no idea how much time i wasted by just putting the gun into the hand

What do you have currently? Could post a GitHub Gist or something
i'm fine with the first part which takes the data and puts it into a dictionary
but the part where it's actually figuring out what entity to spawn is the problem
tranquil oracle
Yeah this implementation won't scale well
What you'd want is to store the entity values ahead of time (I should note that Dictionary<string, string> is actually not the best type to use, because you can have duplicate keys sometimes, which is valid for some entities) for each entity, and then you'd have something like Dictionary<string, Action<Entity>> where the string is the classname, and the function initializes the entity for that class type
tranquil oracle
What you'd want is to store the entity values ahead of time (I should note that ...
(you can sort of view the key/value pairs as a list of "commands" that set up the entity, so classname sets the list of functions used by the entity, origin moves it to a location, etc, and they can appear multiple times. The wad key for example can appear multiple times to specify that the BSP depends on several wad files, which is extra fun because it can also just appear once and multiple wads will just be separated by a semicolon)

i think i know what you mean
so something like this?

Yeah
merry lotus
ok cool
tranquil oracle
Though it'd be a bit nicer with attributes I think
like
[RegisterClass("info_player_start")]
public static void SpawnPlayer(Entity entity)
{
// ...
}
and then you just find all methods with RegisterClassAttribute
merry lotus
oh ok
tranquil oracle
Since you're not stuck with old .NET you could actually do it a slightly nicer way too
public interface IEntityClass
{
static abstract void Spawn(Entity entity);
}
// ...
public abstract class RegisterEntityClassAttribute : Attribute
{
public string ClassName { get; }
public Action<Entity> SpawnFunction { get; }
private protected RegisterEntityClassAttribute(string className, Action<Entity> spawnFunction)
{
ClassName = className;
SpawnFunction = spawnFunction;
}
}
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Assembly, AllowMultiple = true)]
public sealed class RegisterEntityClassAttribute<T> : RegisterEntityClassAttribute
where T : IEntityClass
{
public RegisterEntityClassAttribute(string className)
: base(className, T.Spawn)
{
}
}
and then you can do:
public class PlayerSpawn : IEntityClass
{
public static void Spawn(Entity entity)
{
// ...
}
}
and elsewhere:
[assembly: RegisterEntityClass<PlayerSpawn>("info_player_spawn")]
Then you can just:
foreach (var attribute in assembly.GetCustomAttributes<RegisterEntityClassAttribute>())
{
entityClasses.Add(attribute.ClassName, attribute.SpawnFunction);
}
for each Assembly that's loaded
merry lotus
where does the
[assembly: RegisterEntityClass<PlayerSpawn>("info_player_spawn")]
go?
tranquil oracle
anywhere
merry lotus
oh
tranquil oracle
or well, it has to be outside of a namespace/class/etc
but it can go in any file

yeah but it's a freeze frame

made the screen black and white under the pause for the authentic effect
I love the old film look

have film grain and have the film border thing jitter around
Kinda like the fallout 3 menu
https://youtu.be/jIgjRNWj0J8?si=JebMWqwVSxEHTs8V oh I thought it was more filmy but it’s a projector

sort of similar tho
i guess what would look cool is like, if i took a screenshot of the screen when pausing, and have it flicker around
or have the film rolling altogether

also i got a very cool procedural typewriter message anim going on in my game complete with sound, it's so fucking cool but i forgot to record it
recreated it from the alien movies with the sound

Thank you
I did not inspire myself much on anything I tried to get creative lol

it doesn't actually look like that, it just reminded me of it
idk what made me think of it
actually yeah hold on
this game looked so good
it still doesn't actually look like it tho, but i guess the colors and the mood brought me back to it
its very nice though, you do good level atmosphere
dusky pivot
Yeah I see the resemblance with the red colors

its very nice though, you do good level atmosphere
Unfortunately its the only thing Im good at, the rest in the game doesnt feel as good to me, or like, not as clear in my mind and its stressing

this looks so nice
oh
a little more detail and it would pass for realistic
i might harness this filter
tomorrow i'll check an option for a built in resolution scaling that is not shader based
because it sucks
it tickles a specific fancy
this looks like something you'd actually see in MOH
either in the briefing or in the multiplayer

slender knoll
not as much as this one does #general-modding message

but yea
the quantization and resolution reduction actually increases the credibility of it being a real place
slender knoll
even if its jaggy but the shadows being uneven makes it somehow look better
hard to explain
hazy sky
it doesn't look gamey
hazy sky
its why bodycam or dashcam games use a shit ton of filtering
to reduce the image quality to the point where the details smear into each other
the low resolution populates the shadows here with extra pixels and the dithering evens it out in a sort of arranged chaos
hard to explain but yeah unironically the pixilated version looks more detailed despite being the same scene with untextured floors
slender knoll
I prefer a clean image in games personally
hazy sky

graininess catches my eye and bothers me
I hate grain but dithering is not so bad
simply because dithering is evenly distributed

bro is literally looking for free work so he can get his project off the ground and find a publisher, it might go big but no thanks, the scope of the project is just too big for mere indie devs and the level designer's work is basically unity stock assets by a person who looked at 2 videos on youtube about level design

I don't remember the exact keybinds, but there's a way to copy and paste a flipped armature pose, which could halve the time it takes to make a symetrical walk cycle, worth looking into
earnest lily
Shift control V on the bones you want mirrored in pose mode iirc
Paste Mirrored
It will NOT work if your bones do not follow Blender's naming convention ( .l and .r )
unique trellis
While I was renaming the bones I decided to make things easier on myself by just making a single npc model and just customizing its textures and stuff in unity so I don't have to make a fuck ton of npc models for the game. I know this is common sense but it didn't cross my mind until now.

I like the quantization
Thanks, we are doing quantization twice, first on each induvidual texture and then over the entire image
hazy sky
so that's why it looks so authentic
i was also thinking about doing that but i'm not sure if i'm willing to sacrifice my textures for that
dusky pivot
You can do it very softly
I decided to crank up quantization to around 6 to 12 colors in textures
The image quantizatiom is 24
But u can deff have more colours in the textures themself and make the dithering pattern smaller so the effect isnt as strong

Na, the issue is simple idk how I did not saw this before
I had a little spotlight on it bit but there is some issues with that
First off the material is unlit so it does not matter at all, second off the spotlight is making the pixels around the lock brighter and therefore harder to see

Does anyone know how could I make my character interact with rigidbodies?

They seem to interact pretty nicely with the enviorment but the character simply does not apply any force against them
What am I missing
toxic hemlock
idk what engine ur using but i think just sticking a rigidbody to ur character should do it
tranquil oracle
If you're using the CharacterController component, adding a Ridigbody alone shouldn't put forces on objects you collide with
The CharacterController just allows something to move with collision, but it won't produce forces
There's an example of exactly what you're trying to do on the docs page too
