does anybody here know how to mod a custom ultrakill level?

[merry lotus]

gonna try rewriting Dead End from the ground up with Silk.Net instead of OpenTK

that way I can completely overhaul how maps and entities work while optimizing the stuff that already worked

I'm still not entirely sure what the best way to handle map loading is

the OpenTK iteration was pretty messy

[hazy sky]

reworking the pickups in the game, which design should i go for

this is just the regular medkit that heals 20 health

this will be the big medkit that heals 50

either that or i'll make a cool backpack

this will be the grenade pickup

and i need a general purpose ammo pickup

panzerfaust my beloved,,,

[tranquil oracle]

It's a tough problem, kinda thing you need to bash your head against a few times to get a good grasp on tbh

DUSK went through like 4 or 5 different iterations of its BSP loader before it reached the point it will ultimately ship in for the next update

[hazy sky]

new dusk update??????

[tranquil oracle]

The next SDK update

[hazy sky]

what will it add

[tranquil oracle]

custom scripting (enemies, weapons, game modes, etc) is the big thing

[hazy sky]

holy shit

(i know im using V1 as an example, but the question isnt really about ultrakill)
how the ever loving hell did this man make everything move like an actual robot?!
i want to obtain this forbidden knowledge

main reason is because i have a bad idea

[dusky pivot]

https://youtu.be/II2Q8cNQt0k?si=90ov6bf22-tylHdl

Gonna share this here too, any feedback is apreciated

[sharp vortex]

think it sounds great, the sound at 0:25 comes in a little too fast/ abruptly, I think the distance at which you can begin to hear it needs to increased

footstep sounds on the tile or whatever that might be could be lowered a smidge too

[dusky pivot]

Gotcha

[light nova]

generally what are best practices for handling stuff like basic first person movement controls?

it's something I've been trying to program in Unity but I feel consistently stuck and I don't really know where to start to get what I want

[sharp vortex]

Depends on what you want out of it I guess

there's a ton of template scripts out there, and some stock ones from Unity themselves you can download and then edit yourself

I'd honestly just check some tutorials, read some scripts, etc. and go from there, download some people have made and see how they did it, etc.

FPS controllers usually end up looking pretty similar and then you add a bunch of stuff for edge cases

https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/characters/modular-first-person-controller-189884

[azure flume]

Get 10 different templates, figure out how they each work, pick out features of each that you want, combine them together for your own custom one.

[sharp vortex]

For instance I'm using this but I've added my own footstep sound system and tweaked some stuff to make it so the capsule doesnt slide off corners, etc.

[hazy sky]

ALWAYS rotate the player left and right, and the camera up and down

this way you don't run into problems with the forward vector

(and it's the most mentally sane way to do it)

also don't be afraid to use templates

[azure flume]

What do you mean? I always flip myself vertically and levitate when I want to look up

[light nova]

you just clamp it right

[hazy sky]

what do you mean

[light nova]

clamp the camera angles

[hazy sky]

why not it sounds good

[light nova]

-90f, 90f

[hazy sky]

I aint gonna elaborate because someone with blue name is gonna pop up and say "acktually dont lishen to thaz guy do it ash you shee fit 🤓"

[waxen plover]

if you're using unity make a float variable for the x look limit and in update do camerax rotation = mathf.clamp(-camerax rotation, -xlooklimit, xlooklimit)

of course with the names of your variables

[pure jackal]

Dawg thats rude don't say that

[hazy sky]

https://captain4lk.itch.io/slk-img2pixel

this shit actually fucks i've been using this for so long

[merry lotus]

is there a way to have visual studio put all the .dll files in a subfolder when building? i hate how it just puts them all in the same folder as the exe

i tried looking up a solution but they all involve editing an app.config file that isn't in my project

[sharp vortex]

what engine?
if it's Unity it should move them to the game/game_Data/Managed folder

[merry lotus]

it's a custom engine

[sharp vortex]

ah

try this then?
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/ide/how-to-change-the-build-output-directory?view=vs-2022&tabs=netcore

[merry lotus]

that just changes where the files are built to
i'm talking about just the .dll files

so what i want is something like
having the exe and resources folder in \bin\Debug\net8.0 and the .dll files being output to \bin\Debug\net8.0\lib

[sharp vortex]

Oh, you can add an App.Config

unless you strictly dont want to

[merry lotus]

afaik it doesn't do anything

at least with my specific project setup

i'm pretty sure that project templates that need app.config files generate them automatically but idk

[sharp vortex]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/ide/how-to-add-app-config-file?view=vs-2022

It seems you can just do it, but idk

[merry lotus]

lemme check

[sharp vortex]

managed to work for me, though it didnt clean the old dlls out

Think I had to clean and rebuild first though

[merry lotus]

i tried a solution i found on stackoverflow but the build keeps failing

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74772444/visual-studio-2022-place-referenced-dll-into-subdirectory-of-bin-folder

[sharp vortex]

if you're doing the one that has the Post-Build event, skip that part

[merry lotus]

oh

[sharp vortex]

yeah idk what that was about

[merry lotus]

it's not working

[sharp vortex]

Yeah I think something's obsolete in the Post-Build event code they provided, but I don't know shit about it.
It will build the new folder when I run it with it, but it also fails the build

[merry lotus]

looking at the documentation, i think it's failing because the command is returning a code of 1 which means the files were successfully copied, but visual studio makes it so any non-zero exit code makes the build fail

i'll just deal with the .dll files being in the same folder

[tranquil oracle]

You could also use a single file deployment

Then you don't even have dlls, just one exe

dotnet publish -p:PublishSingleFile=true -c Release

[merry lotus]

can't get it to work

[dusky pivot]

Making this even more repulsive than it already is

[sharp vortex]

id live there

[dusky pivot]

who wouldnt

[sharp vortex]

thinking about attaching hover rockets to the bottom of this skeleton instead of modeling the legs because i'm too fucking lazy

much better than the first try for sure

think I want to remove the "jaw" though, as I don't want to model a real jaw and jawless would look slightly creepier anyway

[earnest lily]

oh shit you makin a full ass game?

[muted stirrup]

Getting there 👀

[merry lotus]

had the idea of using the solution that Zombie taught me for spawning entities from BSPs for figuring out which way to load a BSP

https://gist.github.com/PlazminDev/54c8f414ad43cceffea83e1c118fe9ca

[tranquil oracle]

If you want some inspiration, here are a few cut down snippets of what's in the SDK right now, should give you a rough idea of the design: https://gist.github.com/DaZombieKiller/2fe33d97f7bfdc6580894a1685a5c04c

There are basically three "core" classes to the design:

• BspFormat: defines how to read and detect an individual BSP format
• BspReader: given a stream and one or more BSP formats, determines the BSP format and also handles BSPX extensions
• BspData: basically just a "data holder" class that stores anything a BSP can contain (vertices, faces, etc), each BspFormat reads into one of these

That way, when you load a map, you only have to write code to handle BspData. It's the job of the BspReader and BspFormat classes to read the different formats into a BspData object.

Feel free to ask any questions, a lot of code was trimmed out there to keep it brief and just show the design

[sharp vortex]

[unique trellis]

Looked back at one of my old turbowarp projects and what the actual fuck was I doing </3

[waxen plover]

hd remake going good so far

[sharp vortex]

I like the head a lot

[waxen plover]

ty, I added a bit more detail and a displacement modifier to the body after the pic

[merry lotus]

registering BSP formats using attributes isn't really working out so i'm just gonna go with an abstract class approach

this will work for now

[pure jackal]

He's a happy little feller

[tranquil oracle]

That's pretty much what I do too

and the BspReader constructors that don't take any BspFormats just use this

[merry lotus]

oh ok

[dusky pivot]

https://youtu.be/SS7E1fznazk

Been making the rotating bridge better, added security bars, and a lot more detail in the ceiling

• Some nice metal footsteps audio

Tho Im not entirely sure about how to aproach adding more details scattered across the bridge -3-

[steel lance]

could add some dirt decals on the bridge potentially with a few spare parts like screws/bolts on it like someone forgot to clean up

ill have to wait until i get mook to post my own art and gamedev project stuff. been working on it with a programmer friend for a year now. never really talked here due to being shy. but so far from what ive seen here and #general-art is pretty nice

[dusky pivot]

Yeah I can try that

[steel lance]

overall it is pretty nice, keeping some notes for myself like the dithering, never really knew it can change the lighting like that in a way

im currently using the regular lighting in unity, cant use the vertex as the terrain wont light up and i dont want to make it a performance hit to increase the amount of faces on it. ive been waiting for my programmer friend to make some texel lighting to fit with the late 90s style in a way

[dusky pivot]

This effect is achieved with Double color quantization both on textures, then on the screen, then downscaling then dithering

[steel lance]

dont see anything about me not being able to post a video, so heres something old. the research hud element and the clock changed. as soon as im able to post in general art it will be nice. but looking at modding stuff for now helps alot. as a current edit: thanks phobos. ill look at what color quantization is! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qatx7ubzDvc

[dusky pivot]

Yw :3

[dusky pivot]

Tried adding some stuff

Went more with the style I was following so far

[merry lotus]

your game looks so good so far

I love the visuals

[dusky pivot]

Hey plazmin!

Thank you, Im putting a lot of effort into it ❤️

Hows your game going

[merry lotus]

working on a better way of loading BSP files by referencing the snippets of code from the Dusk SDK that Zombie shared

so far this rewrite is going pretty smoothly

I hope I can at least get E1M1 in a playable state before my birthday

[steel lance]

the clutter makes it much better

[merry lotus]

also today I discovered that the problems I had with rotations in the past 2 iterations of the project were due to a simple error

I've done rotation like this
Rotation *= RotationAmt

when it should be like this
Rotation = RotationAmt * Rotation

because the output of multiplying 2 quaternions changes depending on which side of the operation they're on

I didn't know that until today

[dusky pivot]

I agree

[dusky pivot]

Thats awesome! gl

[merry lotus]

thx

gl with your game too

[dusky pivot]

Im just not very confident with my design skills but I think the game will be ok

[steel lance]

yeh i have a similar thing where i post a enemy or a machine i made to my friends, they say its always nice or great but i always think it looks terrible or something of that nature

im still learning terrain sculpting and interior design and its kinda.. that situation

[hazy sky]

chat what if there was a level where you'd have to control a train, defend it and make it to the next station in one piece

but you'd have to actually throttle or speed up because of blockades on the tracks

and you'd have like an anti air emplacement to take out planes, paratroopers and tanks

and the level would end with the Germans blowing up the tracks and continuing on foot

sounds like such a set piece moment

ww2 sea of thieves but in a train

and depending on difficulty or coop mode, enemies would board the train from cars or other trains

actually this would tie in nicely to the German chapter's finale so well holy shit

man this screams Indiana Jones so much I love it

holy shit there is a movie that is similar in idea to this

its called The Train, made in 1964 and it's about a French resistance member sabotaging the Germans plans of transporting stolen art masterpieces by taking over the train

this is perfect

make it a blend between goldeneye 64 and timesplitters 3 train level

what do you think of this idea @slender knoll

(pinging because I know you like TS3)

also @pure jackal what do you think

[pure jackal]

Could be good but you should probably write the idea down in a document somewhere and return to it once you've got the rest of the gameloop done

[slender knoll]

remember to include the "Oh my god it's like giving birth!" toilet line

[pale raft]

I love train levels

The call of Juarez gunslinger train level where the you just loop train cars since the speaker left to use the bathroom is my favorite joke in it

[hazy sky]

[dusky pivot]

For some reason this is a thing I fear

Someone trying to steal my game

Best of lucks to that developer

[hazy sky]

chat i am feeling very insecure about my game rn

(my older builds look better than my recent builds)

idk down the line of development i lost everything that made it good

its good now too, but its good in a different way

maybe it only looks like that to me, but yea

that's it, i'm downscaling my textures

look how much better this actually looks

(then again it MIGHT be the nostalgia towards medal of honor)

stop me before i do something stupid to the game

but i think first thing into the weekend i'll make a simplified HUD that looks like the medal of honor underground HUD to calm myself

since i already have a hud selector in the menu it'll be okay

[pale raft]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

big fan of the rain

[hazy sky]

that's still a thing luckily, it only looks better on the current build so

need to rework it though so its more performant

holy fuck i forgot about this

would be funny if i added a glass effect to the compass, made a secondary camera that is facing the opposite direction to the player's camera, and added that as the reflection's texture

[pure jackal]

add a glass effect for sure

[dusky pivot]

Hello modders

I have a question

Is Gloomwood made in Unity?

I wish to make a mod for it

[azure flume]

Yes. It's made in Unity.

[muted stirrup]

https://fxtwitter.com/GameDevKS/status/1895414037850267666

[unique trellis]

There's actually a bepinex page for it but it has like 1 thing on it

[tiny jolt]

Better than nothing

[earnest lily]

🛡️

[tiny jolt]

Looks cool👍

[stiff thorn]

Hmmm, can I offer my thoughts on one thing?

[earnest lily]

don't ask to ask and go ahead - just do not break the rules

[stiff thorn]

I might be the only one with this, but to me it seems that the snappy and fast animation style makes it really difficult to differentiate the hitstun anims from the attack anims

I tried to lock in when I watched the gameplay but I could hardly tell when the enemy was still hit and when the enemy would super armor an attack

Might just be my reaction time tho, so definitely ask others if you share my concern in any way

[earnest lily]

mechanically the game is a bit more nuanced than that, so you'll never be put in a situation where a hitstun masks an incoming threat

but I've been also looking on ways to make it a bit clearer

I have a couple of solutions ready to test, and do keep in mind this is a boss ( which behaves a bit differently )

[stiff thorn]

Yeah but I personally hate super armored attacks you can do nothing about

Was my biggest pet peeve with Yakuza's combat until I modded in more cancellable attacks

Just my opinion tho, brutha. You're making great shit in any case 👍

[cedar ruin]

How are yall so talented

[earnest lily]

cheers homie, I'll bump it up the list

[earnest lily]

talent is the skill floor, but you always need discipline and a good dose of "I will make this mf work" to hit the ceiling 😤

[cedar ruin]

Bet

[earnest lily]

and yeah if 100 people tell you "x sucks" they might be on to something. A lot of developers forget that part

I have to go now, my planet needs me

[stiff thorn]

👆 So true, best part about game dev is you can experiment with different methods or results until you make it work how you want it to, when you want it to

[dusky pivot]

My experience with gamedev is: AAAAAAAAA IT BURNSS NOOOO NMGMFFAAAAAAAAAA, oh thats kinda cool,,, AAAA

the nacht der untoten zombie laugh still sends shivers down my back its so fucking good

[pure jackal]

😭

Please dude get some enemies in

You've done so much hud work bro, your framework is flexible and the modding potential is astounding,

Moh ps1 style nazi zombie models tho

Could probably use the nzp dsi version for reference

[hazy sky]

i mean

zombies that pathfind towards you to beat you up are much easier than thinking enemies

could be a nice practice actually

IF YOU NEED A REVIVE ,,,,,,,,,,,

🎵 🎶

the real actual challenge will be making the game mode work with the base player script WITHOUT adding anything too out of the ordinary

the player will have the interact method, that shit has to carry the thing with the points also being handled by the game mode

maybe add a downed state

[hazy sky]

this is cute

Will the zombies be bipedal dogs…..

[hazy sky]

i will literally model, rig and texture bipedal dogs for you tomorrow

i actually wonder how i could make it possible to reuse human animations for those poor bastards

[pale raft]

Instead buy a mocap suit and fully immerse yourself in what it is like to be a bipedal dog

[hazy sky]

but no actually tomorrow i'll add basic key poses and some barebones animation for the dudes

[hazy sky]

i dont have the money to become the bipedal dog,,,,,,,,,

[pale raft]

What’s even the point then…..

Fruck my Chungus life

[hazy sky]

buy me one

[pale raft]

I can buy you the tiny mocap balls and you can just eat them so they track your movements

[hazy sky]

im gonna shit out motion data

[pure jackal]

you already have animationssssss 😭

there has to be a way to get them to import properlyyyy

[dusky pivot]

mlem

[hazy sky]

excuse me

[hazy sky]

i mean i do, but i am missing animations as well

[stiff thorn]

did bro just kick a bullet?? 💀

[earnest lily]

just tuggin that shyt out, is all.

[hazy sky]

@pure jackal this is what i was talking about, the weapon bone for some animations are acting weird

[waxen plover]

badass

make it so you can grab them and flick them back

(lol)

[hazy sky]

btw @pale raft i made the mystery box work i just forgot to record it

[dry spear]

wtf i didnt even realize, a fellow cod zombies enjoyer

we need more cod zombies like games

[hazy sky]

im doing it just for fun though, not sure if i'll ever fully implement it

its just very good practice for game development

[pure jackal]

Just look up Nazi Zombies Portable for your waw-bo2 faithful kick

[pure jackal]

Asides from the weapon bone offsets on a few of them, the mesh seems fine?

Re-import the exported model file back into blender and see if the same weirdness is happening

If it is, try and fix it there and re-export, would be way easier than redoing everything

Are you going to go for classic nacht or do more of the chronicles versions with perks

[hazy sky]

what is chronicles

but i kinda wanna add perks

[pale raft]

The bo3 dlc which has all of the waw maps and bo1 maps (not call of the dead)

And they added the wunderfizz to nacht in one of the rooms it’s basically the mystery box for perks

[hazy sky]

never really played nu-cod zombies past BO2 tbh

no wait i played BO4 zombies but that was still pretty much vanilla zombies

"sadly"

it's a blessing in disguise

[hazy sky]

[rotund garden]

fuck FBX that's why lol it can be inconsistent a lot of times

GLTF works so much better to me, rarely gave me problems

https://youtu.be/O9K5KyapIAg

Some improvements done to footstep sounds, added new one for when you walk on... whatever that is

[hazy sky]

to me its the other way around

GLTF on the other hand, oh man

@pale raft come spend your points

@pure jackal @rotund garden you too bitches

the neat thing is how i managed to put the entire mechanics into the level itself, this way the player knows jack shit about anything. only thing it does is supply its own ID and the functions take care of the rest

even the point and tally are parts of the map, which promptly gets supplied to every player that gets instanced

tomorrow i'll link up the weapon handler and add a max weapons global parameter that allows the setting of gamemode specific slots, as well as linking the mystery box and wall buys up to the point system and weapon handler

[pale raft]

Can you spend points on the box yet to get it to spin

[hazy sky]

the box itself is working i just haven't added the necessary function to it yet

i would make it work but i gotta wake up in 4 hours for work

[pure jackal]

[dusky pivot]

no

maybe later tho

[azure flume]

dual wielding confirmed

[hazy sky]

i wonder how hard would it be to create a true dual wielding

like something out of goldeneye or timesplitters

or Halo

anyways finally made the box swap your gun if you are full on guns (this will also apply on regular now as well if your guns exceed the limit, new guns will replace the one you are holding)

i also couldn't fucking bother with making a function that directly adds a gun to the player so i'm essentially cycling through the ammo pickups and when you claim it, it just duplicates the gun at your feet

very elegant

[hazy sky]

after exhausting most edge cases i am pleased to say the mystery box is ready

also the map enables regenerating health

HELP????

[hazy sky]

trying to figure out why the mixamo imported shit are flipping the bones

[pure jackal]

wouldn't it probably be easier to figure out whats messing up the import on the rig that was fixed of mixamo jank than going backwards to a straight mixamo rig, which requires you fix mixamo jank on top of the existing import problems?

[hazy sky]

im not using a mixamo rig

im using mixamo animations

retargeting

but it flips the model inside out which leaves me to think the model was rigged facing away

i hate animations

[tardy hedge]

yo i desperately need help someone please reach out😭

i recently revived this shitbox pc i had lying in the corner of my room but the gpu got corrupted and all i have currently have is the built in i5 intel gpu hd family graphics something and i was tryna run minecraft but it keeps throwing an opengl error cuz the version im tryna run requires an opengl ver 3.2 but i have 3.1, ive tried every fix and theoretically it should be able to run but it doesnt so

[hazy sky]

we making it to shi no numa with this

[hazy sky]

man this is so fucking cool

wish i could do visuals like this but i quite literally cannot crush down the resolution in godot because it gets blurry instead of pixellated

[spare scarab]

Really great work

[pale raft]

in Der Riese smoking that element 115 pack

[dusky pivot]

Id like to give advice on this but the coder made the shader, from what I am aware the game is actually rendered at normal resolution then downscaled, if you downscale first it looks blurrier (Not 100% sure)

[hazy sky]

wait that's a shader?

might actually give a downscaler shader a go i guess

my problem is how it doesn't look the same, it looked too uniform when i tried to do that

[dusky pivot]

hm..

Well this is a combination of various things

[dusky pivot]

https://youtu.be/JcRMSgv7hqw

We just got done with making the main menu work properly, added some settings too :3

[merry lotus]

this looks so GOOD

[dusky pivot]

Thanks a lot Plazmin ❤️

[hazy sky]

actually I'll show a video of it when I get home it's fucking hilarious @pure jackal

[hazy sky]

this lowkey fucks

so fucking hard

these guns hit so fucking hard its a literal pleasure to shoot them

if i had headshot damage modifiers in there, they would feel even more powerful

(problem is i still don't know how i could do that)

[hazy sky]

@pale raft @pure jackal @sharp vortex

@rotund garden @slender knoll @spare scarab

[slender knoll]

oh no attack of the pills

cod zombies I take?

[hazy sky]

i will attack you in broad daylight

but yea its cod world at war zombies

[slender knoll]

I never played this game mode

I did play a weird af sven coop resident evil map which had a really bare bones version of this years before waw

[hazy sky]

waw

[slender knoll]

the one in waw is waaaay more advanced tho

I aint typing that name every time

[hazy sky]

i only have 2 powerups in there so far

bonus points (which weren't in waw) and max ammo

i'm gonna do carpenter next because it's simple, i just need some models

and instakill is simply just a switch

i guess double points as well

the nuke is simple enough as well

i have a reference for every enemy in the group so it's just like set a 0.5 timer and kill each zombie one by one rapidly

but also kill everyone in a 10 meter radius

would be funny if i accidentally enabled it killing other players

[rotund garden]

holy zased

[pure jackal]

Does the radio play music when you shoot it

[hazy sky]

there is no radio yet

but i also don't wanna go so in depth with it

so far every asset i created is mine, except the sounds

and the map layout as welll

and the props will also come in handy for later maps

also made barricades stop paying you money after 10 repairs until the next round

[pale raft]

[hazy sky]

gonna add a morse device to the mw3-style survival where you can buy health, armor, ammo and guns

it's gonna look cool as shit

[muted stirrup]

Verruckt when?

[hazy sky]

Hopefully never 😭

this is just testing ground, I'm actually gonna make changes to the game mode so it's not a carbon copy

maybe when modders do it

[muted stirrup]

fair enough lol, but yeah theres a lot of good stuff i dig with older cod zombies, so anything inspired by that is always nice to see

the more the merrier imho

[hazy sky]

cod games always have so many cool side modes, it's a shame on the zombies caught on

mw3 spec ops and survival was peak

[muted stirrup]

I played but not owned mw3. in fact theres a few cods of that era that im still yet to play, though i did play and enjoy waw, bo1 and bo2

after that....not so much 😅

[hazy sky]

just saying I'm gonna write up a morse reader

each menu option will read out the corresponding morse code, it's gonna be so fucking good chat

although I'm making it do a full stop when it detects a foreign character or a space, so it doesn't beep too much

so let's say "buy weapon" will only code out "buy'

gotta find a cool beeper sound

ok I have written a base code on my phone and in theory it should work, we'll see if it works when I get home

[buoyant zinc]

is there any mod out there to change parry sound?

[hazy sky]

#ultrakill-modding

[earnest lily]

[feral ermine]

hell yeah, love the impact mark on the wall

Trying to redesign a few doodads to be more interesting to use and easier to make sense of

[crimson tapir]

Been a few months since the last update I posted about my snowball fight game, I'm still working on it, just not very active online as much anymore.

[hazy sky]

holy shit I was just thinking about this yesterday

this is Godot right?

[crimson tapir]

Yeah, sun scatter in the fog has been a godsend, lol

Progress hasn't been very fast as well because I'm in my last semester of college and kind of need to lock in and hopefully find a job for when I graduate, so also just haven't felt like I've been making very many big leaps in development worth sharing

[feral ermine]

looks really nice, neat movement

[crimson tapir]

Thanks!

[limber bramble]

this is so fuckin peak

[crimson tapir]

Although, an odd psychological thing I've noticed about improving graphical quality in your projects is that because it looks more visually polished, bugs tend to feel a lot more like a big deal, for some reason. Like when you're a capsule roaming around under the default skybox and you clip through the floor it's like, whoops, lol, no big deal. But when it happens in a game that looks somewhat presentable it's more like, oh, God, oh shit, that's not supposed to happen.

[feral ermine]

yeah, it feels more jarring when it isnt just some capsules and cubes acting up

[crimson tapir]

Yeah, feels a lot more like a daunting task to fix things

[feral ermine]

Also, anyone know any good reference games for trying to design fiddly interactive objects?
The goal was to make things like the tool-sections in Alien Isolation but where instead of just waiting for an animation to finish as you hope nothing catches you, the player has to actually do some fairly mundane task in a life or death situation
The socket wrench does ratchet properly :D

[crimson tapir]

Uhhhhhh, maybe not a 1:1 fit, but the crew member tasks in Among Us? Connecting wires, turning knobs, things like that

Like not too tedious of a task but can still be fumbled under pressure

[hazy sky]

yessssssss it WORKS!!!!!!!

[feral ermine]

Cheers!
It's all cursor-based, based on Amnesia/Penumbra's interaction stuff, so more manual buttons and knobs is always good

[hazy sky]

more ear friendly version

[hazy sky]

@valid timber you should get a morse code machine

i could probably do a dot-dash version of this and it would only need like two sounds

[pale raft]

It’s peat…..

[hazy sky]

made a morse output as well so it can encode whatever you type in there

[hazy sky]

@pale raft hello mr pap

[sudden imp]

Pack a punch…

[hazy sky]

ok i caved in

fuck you vino i will launch you into space with my pack a punched panzerfaust

basically allows free reign over the pap's look with the custom material

you can either add new shit on top or replace it altogether

anyways made some extra changes to the game mode, enemies spawn more frequently the higher the round number, spawns more with each round, added support for increasing difficulty via tiers (to mimick MW3's enemy upgrades)

i still need to make the enemy spawns unlock as you progress past

but this was a very valuable off topic journey for me because i learnt a lot about how to setup levels in a way that matters

[pale raft]

MASSIVE

[hazy sky]

don't make me model a 1911

just foe that one fucking bit

also remind me to rip off valve's melee system with the raycasts, set up the teams, make the point manager from the zombie mode global, and then reimplelent bullets in a meaningful way where it checks for teams (and a friendly fire bool) for hit detection

oh also remind me to fully implement the weapon pickup check so you cannot have two pistols if enabled for example

wish I had more time after work

those 3-4 hours are so little for work,,,

btw @crimson tapir could you help me set up some multiplayer stuff later?

FUVK i didn't send the armory menu

got an almost fully functional weapon buy menu that functions very similar to MW3 except no attachments

also I'll REALLY try my hand at animating this weekend

I'm fucking rolling again

if anything ill do the player animations at least

and remind me to finalize the scoreboard as well for coop and multiplayer

[light nova]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1301395744082628710/1346764354246410260/gam.gif

starting working on a game. thanks guys for the encouragement 🙂

[dusky pivot]

I have a very specific problem

My game has material based footsteps

I just made a new model, with a new material then asigned an id for this material to play the correct sound

The material does work just fine, UNLESS its placed on the new model?

So it doesnt seem to be a material problem but rather something with that specific part of the model and I really do not know what it is

I really have no clue what this can be, Ive doublecheceked the model and even then I dont even know what I could have possibly changed by accident to make this behavior occur

[dusky pivot]

Ok, it seems like unity is creating an instance of the material when Im walking from one to another?

This is really strange, Im not sure if this is the problem

[waxen plover]

by material do u mean the thing with a green floor icon with a ball on it

[dusky pivot]

Just an unity material

I did some black magic to make it work, it might be a problem with how the footsteps themself are coded

[waxen plover]

use physics materials

way better

[dusky pivot]

Anyway

Been literally the entire day locked inside blender and unity + fighting againt this material thing, but Im happy

[blissful mulch]

Silly cat, never ask strangers for help before asking your coder :3

[limber bramble]

if you're accessing materials via renderer.material then Unity will silently create and return a copy of the material

this can cause a memory leak, because that cloned material either has to be destroyed manually (or it will get automatically destroyed if it's no longer referenced on scene load or upon calling Resources.UnloadUnusedAssets)

you can use renderer.sharedMaterial to get around that

don't know if that's what's causing your problem but it seems like it might be related

[dusky pivot]

Dont worry, its been fixed

[hazy sky]

I might have gotten my axe stuck in a big tree

but I redesigned 3 entire systems

the weapon script for example no longer really needs extensive rewriting each time, I added a helper function into every action that you can then add into the script. it's an integer argument so you can filter out which actions go where

Basically remade the bullet script from the ground up because it was dated 2024.06.11 and it uses much less redundant checks, has null pointer checks and is more predictable than before

and separated 2D and 3D guns into their own classes, which also clears up many unwanted checks and code as well

the last one on the chopping board was the entire HUD pipeline so it uses much less signals than before, Hopefully reducing some overhead while maintaining functionality

I haven't yet tried any of these as I've been fixing up the already existing assets to work with these huge changes 🥶

[pale raft]

Forgot to add 4D weapons

[hazy sky]

5D weapons will obliterate them

[pale raft]

Will your game be compatible with valve’s new smellovison

[hazy sky]

yes vino pap will be a mainstay feature

altho I'm just calling it upgrade

[pale raft]

Massive huge even

[hazy sky]

you can have multiple versions as well with the exports

I still don't know how I could make it apply the upgraded material onto the weapon only though

that might need a helper function in itself

actually that's not even a bad idea holy shit

these helper functions were a really good idea bruh

I had to rewrite basically half of the main code base per weapon if they had unique functionalities, like the revolver spinning its cylinder for example when firing

which meant they were always out of date with the new script

so hopefully this will streamline everything

[pale raft]

Would pap be just added damage, clip size and ammo or will it be goofy pap where some weapons get new stuff like the mustang and Sally’s

[hazy sky]

the helper function is basically a function with an argument that takes an integer, 0 means fallback, don't do anything. 1 is called during firing, 2 is called while reloading, 3 is called for the recoil, 4 is called on equip, 5 is pap, etc

[hazy sky]

that is entirely up to the one making the gun

[pale raft]

V cool

[hazy sky]

I exported variables such as rate of fire, magazine size, weapon name, weapon material, muzzle flash color, reload speed etc etc so you can tweak it as you see fit

well actually by default you can only have 1 pap variant per unique gun scene but I'll make it work

shit will turn into borderlands real soon I'm afraid with how modular things are getting

imagine if I added visible attachments on upgrades

like how some pap guns in bo2 had attachments on it

more like all of them tho

also made a power up that basically makes the fire rate 4x the speed 👀

and a bouncy bullets one as well

shit is like a madness with those two enabled

I don't even have to aim, those suckers will hit shit guaranteed

but yeah safe to say gunplay is now READY

I need to fix up the player movement because that shit is acient by now and I have learned a lot since I last rewrote it

plus I've been making the game multiplayer future proof gradually

i want the demo to have cool proof of concept stuff with content to play and replay

[pale raft]

Bo1 ak with flame thrower

Perfection….

[hazy sky]

bo 1 was unfiltered as fuck

would be cool to have two timelines tho

like the multiplayer being set after the story mode

[pale raft]

It was all a dream

[hazy sky]

I feel like I'm going to support this game for like 10 years to come

running on godot 8.5

[pale raft]

Make your children and grandchildren continue to work in it

[hazy sky]

my father has it,,,,,,

my son has it

i have it,,,,,

[pure jackal]

LUPUS

[dusky pivot]

Very happy with this one, little gate that has to be remotely opened

[hazy sky]

bad news is, I fucked everything up

good news however, its been worse

I'll fix it tomorrow

I like the new weapon system because it's so much cleaner, but I definitely need to get used to it

[drowsy escarp]

https://fxbsky.app/profile/someautisticdev.bsky.social/post/3ljqxamlibs2a

[drowsy escarp]

I finally finished my NMH slot machine mod

[dusky pivot]

Sorry for the ass quality, here is some atmosphere :3

[light nova]

How is the dash done in ultrakill?

I currently have a dash in unity and it uses rigidbody addforce impulse for when it's in the air, but when it's on the ground it doesn't do much

[azure flume]

#ultrakill-modding

[hazy sky]

finally, working at last

4x rate of fire gives you a 4x fire rate (actually 2.75 for the pistols and 1.75 for the automatic weapons) and a halves your reload speed

crazy bullets make bullets go twice as fast and make them bounce 100% on impact, and 2x the ricochet number

annihilate is the equivalent of the zombies nuke, it gathers enemies in the group, iterates through them in distance order and kills them one by one. the further they are from the nuke going off, the more it takes to die

sudden death is instakill, it is a guaranteed instakill as it damages 10x the enemy's health as damage for good measure

there's also architect, it slowly repairs every barricade working by the same order as the nuke, although it repairs for 30 seconds before wearing off and rewarding 200 points for everyone

[pale raft]

[hazy sky]

there's also double points, flea market which is firesale and makes everything 10x cheaper

and bonus points which nets you some extra cash depending on the round number

(also reworked the entire weapon code and its kinda janky still, but it's starting to shape up, much cleaner than before without much redundancy)

oh, also you can now set the target per spawner so if you see the enemy struggling with their objective, you can force them to a specific one, doors now unlock new spawns so enemies will spawn in the new areas as well

and if they didn't get to touch you within a minute, they get respawned to a different spawn avoid softlocks

(also implemented the one in the chamber into every gun that are either pump action, magazine fed or stripper clip fed)

[hazy sky]

quick cooking of the buy menu

working on a catalogue-esque font for this

now i only really need to figure out a way to read the stats off the weapons, and automatically populate the categories using the categories built into the guns

[pale raft]

Reminds me of the 2009 wolfenstein upgrade shops

[hazy sky]

holy shit you're right

[pale raft]

I can’t remember if you buy weapons there or if it’s only upgrades

[hazy sky]

i love wolf 2009 but i genuinely forgot about this menu

here i am copying my favorite wolf game subconsciously

but i think you can't buy weapons here

[pale raft]

Electric skeleton man appears in your dreams too

[hazy sky]

https://tenor.com/view/sigma-basado-g-esqueleto-gif-15836989858616789549

real problem is, idk how i'm going to set up the whole catalog with modding in mind

so im not even gonna approach that for now

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

hmmm

i like it

this is cool

gonna do the sprites for the weapons like this

[pale raft]

[hazy sky]

these guns look photoreal when crunched down

[dusky pivot]

we love pixelating

[hazy sky]

had to make it working

gets the weapons dynamically, adds a button each and the filename is generated using the weapon's name with a transparent BG

you could also in theory create a 8 directional sprite like in doom while using animations as well

[frail peak]

honestly really cool

the lighting really works

[hazy sky]

i could probably create an animation selector and a scrubber

@pure jackal

god i fucking love this

[hazy sky]

doomed

thats actually more like wolfenstein 3d

[dusky pivot]

Been working on this tonight, its a puzzle ofc

[drowsy escarp]

https://fxbsky.app/profile/someautisticdev.bsky.social/post/3ljtu6o6fg22t

Has anyone else fucked up a mod that badly?

[hazy sky]

is this reelism?????????

[vestal badger]

crazy mod

[drowsy escarp]

It can be played with reelism,

[merry lotus]

got meshes generating

indices are being a pain though

there we go

was just a little mistake on my part

[merry lotus]

for some reason the mouse look is a lot more sluggish on my pc

got model rendering working again

god the texture that solace made for this is so GOOOD

[hazy sky]

I like this solace guy he makes good textures

did you start over?

[merry lotus]

yeah

needed to rewrite a bunch of backend stuff

i'm a lot prouder with the new systems

zombie helped me with the new BSP loading system by sharing snippits of code from the Dusk SDK

[merry lotus]

oh ok so the reason that the mouse movement feels so sluggish on my pc compared to my laptop is because Silk.NET doesn't scale Raw mouse input

afaik there's no way to scale it

oh i can just use CursorMode.Disabled

[hazy sky]

holy shit chat i just realized how i could check for which model to apply the pack a punch to

godot has metadata, you could just set the model's meta to upgradable and it'll make a next pass on it

im so fucking good

(i always forget about meta)

[merry lotus]

got entity spawning working again

[muted stirrup]

https://fxtwitter.com/GameDevKS/status/1898333216831897878 working on the shottys, probs gonna add more recoil or kick down the line

[unique trellis]

[hazy sky]

why he alone give him a friend:(

[jade sun]

anybody know why ultrakill VR isint working for me? whenever i boot it up and turn on my VR (meta quest 2) launch steam link and then try to get in to the game it just dosent load. any fixes?

[merry lotus]

#ultrakill-modding

[hazy sky]

the fucking WHAT

legion of honor vr when,,

[jade sun]

never

[merry lotus]

does godot support vr

[sonic field]

hello grank

idk if we can only talk about coding but ill probably just talk about all the stuff me and my friends are writing

[toxic hemlock]

one of my old garrysmod weapons would freeze the game if u shot dog with it so yeah

[drowsy escarp]

Also I fixed the bug yesterday. I was just worried people were going to dismiss it as unfinished

[toxic hemlock]

dw abt it ive seen tons of zdoom mods launch with a major bug the author didnt anticipate and get patched within the hour, happens to the best of us

[hazy sky]

yes it does

[hazy sky]

also fuck you @pale raft i have made an entire system that supports pack a punch and multiple levels of it

[pale raft]

nice

[hazy sky]

i just need a way to actually take the gun from the player and apply an upgrade to it

actually is it possible in base cod zombies to just be left without a weapon?

since the pap can eat the gun if you don't take it

[pale raft]

i think

[sonic field]

dubstep

is that the bo3 pack a punch

[hazy sky]

idk i haven't played bo3

[sonic field]

when you make a reference and it is not gotten (sad spongebob gif)

[hazy sky]

what

[dusky pivot]

Made this today

[sonic field]

what kinda game is this

[dusky pivot]

Narrative horror game

[sonic field]

this is awesome

keep me updated

[dusky pivot]

Thanks, well you can check my youtube channel or bluesky, I post about the game there

[sonic field]

send it to m

[dusky pivot]

Its on my bio

[sonic field]

i cannot see it

[sonic field]

nvm i subbed

[dusky pivot]

:D

[hazy sky]

what

[pale raft]

I think you can have both your weapons eaten by the pap machine

You still have a knife/ melee so it’s not like you have nothing if you lost both in it

[hazy sky]

oh really

btw i never really showed off the carpenter in action

wait............ chat

[pale raft]

Big fan of the right click crosshair on it

[hazy sky]

its a funny idea to have but the weapons in older cod zombies always had these ornate details when punched

[pale raft]

I miss them

[hazy sky]

easier to just slap a bright shit texture on it than drawing intricate ornate details that no one would notice

trust me i know it

[pale raft]

Blue berry flavor

[hazy sky]

muzzle flash color can also be adjusted as upgraded

i might actually take the time to pay the 100 euros for steam and create a hidden game

that way i could just open up betas and encourage testing more

holy shit now is the perfect time to implement the bullet tracer colors

[hazy sky]

@pale raft should i make it get colored by the muzzle flash or should i make a separate thing for it

[pale raft]

Wdym

[hazy sky]

ok

[hazy sky]

took me a while

[sharp vortex]

we've achieved skeleton movement technology (kind of)

[earnest lily]

GANGSTA SHIT

[hazy sky]

this is so good actually

how do you handle the melee

do you simply just hit a point or do you swing something

[sharp vortex]

lmao I need to redo the melee, right now im raycasting, I need to be actually sending out a collider on the animation later in the swing

[merry lotus]

textures are loading

[hazy sky]

why not do what valve does

[merry lotus]

before, each model had multiple meshes attached to it for textures, but this time i want to only have one mesh and use mesh primitives to handle multiple textures

[sharp vortex]

because I've messed with at least goldsrc weapon code and it's batshit

[hazy sky]

actually not sure how goldsrc does it

but modern source and source 2 games do a swing arc of raycasts

the general conseus is the weapon has a melee area, if it detects zombies in it (this time in l4d2), it prioritized them as long as they are in the range and has line of sight

otherwise it will hit anything else

i am trying this as well but for some reason i cannot get the proper transform of the camera

i have everything, it just rotates all over me

it works in VERY specific angles and i'm sure it's a me thing

[earnest lily]

For fast swings in tugg game I just have a box / sphere collider

[sharp vortex]

Hmm that is very interesting... I think my crutch at this point is probably going to be the animation timing stuff, so I think for the sake of that slapping a collider that appears/enables only during certain frames is the way to go

[hazy sky]

can they collide with walls

otherwise im gonna hit all your tuggs behind a wall

[sharp vortex]

I could actually probably do animation events to trigger those raycasts as well

hmmmmMMMMmm

[hazy sky]

the only reason i ditched areas in favor for raycasts is because raycasts are stopped by walls

[hazy sky]

obviously

i have set a sweep speed, an angle and an arc variable, as well as max raycasts per hit

[sharp vortex]

Im new to animation shit specifically so it isnt as obvious to me lol

[earnest lily]

there's an additional check for this, yes

[hazy sky]

no way

[earnest lily]

you can do this a couple different ways

[hazy sky]

i mean i do it apart from animations

yeah i know

[earnest lily]

I meant to tag you in my reply 💀

[hazy sky]

sky's the limit usually

[earnest lily]

^ as long as it feels consistent enough, it's workable

[hazy sky]

i just think valve's approach is very good and modular

[earnest lily]

I think Age of Chivalry had the raycast horror approach

[sharp vortex]

I'll just try whatever until one works enough for what I'm trying to do

[hazy sky]

attach a collider to your sword

[hazy sky]

wish i had a surefire safe way to cross this dangerous warzone underneath me
the trusty path giver:

yes, i want to buy change text for 1750 points

[toxic hemlock]

this is what nintendo does in ocarina of time and majora's mask btw

link's sword has a collider that damages whatever it touches that gets turned on and off when swinging

theres also a glitch that cancels the attack animation early and leaves the sword collider active so it damages things every frame

[sharp vortex]

yeah its a pretty common method from what ive seen

[toxic hemlock]

i think this technique is also used in oni as well

[hazy sky]

i get turned on and off while swinging as well

i love this upgrade in particular

[hazy sky]

3 in the mag panzerfaust my favorite

truly starting to feel like borderlands

[hazy sky]

twelve shots,,

not sure which one goes harder

being able to color it is cool tho

ok i think it is kinda enough for today

i've been doing nothing but doing stuff for my game for 18 hours

[hazy sky]

the recoil is a lot mate

[dusky pivot]

Decided to rework a fuse box for no reason

Tried making the textures myself this time

[hazy sky]

round 21 is my new best,,,,,,,

you should make the door have a heavy metal scrap sound effect

[dusky pivot]

What

[sonic field]

like its sliding against the floor as it opens

[dusky pivot]

Na, its ok this way imo

[hazy sky]

you should make a door that opens via a valve or a hand crank and as it opens it's playing crank that by soulja boy

[dusky pivot]

I should make a door that opens

[hazy sky]

aaaand its unwrapped too

Got animation event collision working for my melee, actually a lot easier than I thought it would be

[hazy sky]

fuck yea

do you recheck upon entering or

like if you don't recheck, i could just shake my mouse around and the damage would deal whenever the collision connected

[hazy sky]

i regret to inform you but i have COOKAD AGAIN

nice crispy 256 texture as well

oooh yeah that's good shit...........

[pure jackal]

Question

Does the spring move or is it baked into the texture

Like is it a separate alpha clip plane

[hazy sky]

baked into the texture

tbh you wouldn't see it anyways

but now that you said that i kinda wish i made it with that in mind

flappy bird but different

[hazy sky]

could be better

[hazy sky]

someone forgot to install css

[hazy sky]

FINALLY the shotgun works too.................

altho i gotta address the orbital amount of particles each bullet spawns

tanks the fps down to a minimum

sucks because each punch on the shotgun gives it extra 2 pellets

up to a maximum of 30

[rough sundial]

Added some more post-process effects to the remaining areas of the scene I'm working on right now

[uncut agate]

i think i cooked

[sharp vortex]

I didnt really think about that because of the short window in which the collider activates, but I can definitely see that being an issue. Probably gonna add some bool to the skeletons that turns true when they're hit and turns false when the animation ends

After that, maybe tomorrow going to see about getting some attack AI and enemy animation going and then finally add sound back in

then I think im off to a good start

[hazy sky]

I want to eat this,,,,,

[hazy sky]

I mean, just get things working and then when everything works, try edge cases and fix if severe

[hazy sky]

oh wow

[stiff thorn]

oh yes

now we're talking

[knotty fiber]

nonononono add some red reflections from the blade onto the hilt of the blade and your good

cuz its a laser blade your gonna want it to look like one and currently it looks like its made of ruby

but with some shrimple reflections it'll look awesome

[feral ermine]

Set up the new door panel
Sounds are placeholders

[dusky pivot]

Thats really fakin cool

[feral ermine]

looks rad

[feral ermine]

thanks!
all my old bits like that were just button panels, so I'm trying to make them more interesting to use

[dusky pivot]

I remade my fuse box recently and took inspiration from yours

[feral ermine]

oh rad

[dusky pivot]

This thing

[feral ermine]

nice

love the environment design

[dusky pivot]

Thank you

I need to get better at texturing, my knowledge on that is still rather basic lol

[feral ermine]

ive been worried that now I've started to make slightly more detailled models, its making my environment look funny, since its all made using blockout tools and small looping textures
But I'm way too far in to really do anything about it, I just need to revise how I make levels for next time

[dusky pivot]

I dont have levels, the game just goes in and in

So designing it is rather complicated

But its fub

[feral ermine]

nice
Oh yeah mine is just one big mass right now, I more mean environment design in general

[dusky pivot]

Visuals?

I honestly have no way to explain what my process is to create enviorments

I just kinda do stuff until it feels right/nice to look at

[feral ermine]

fair
I wound up using blockout tools inside the editor for pretty much all the big geometry
Originally it was just meant for actual blockout, but it was fast to work with

And that was very handy with how the level and mechanics were being made at the same time
Once this is done I'll be glad to actually design a level before making it :D

[dusky pivot]

Mhm! :3

[hazy sky]

i accidentally spawned two players

[merry lotus]

double cherry power up

[hazy sky]

looking back at the footage how epic would be to just get cornered and you still survive the wave somehow

but this gave me a cool chance to also test the ownership issues and i'm glad to say works on first try

like i cannot snag your mystery box weapon or punched gun

[limber bramble]

goes kinda hard

makes me want the ability to pay to hire NPC allies, like the GOAT flash game Knight: Orc Assault

[mossy topaz]

I gotta try that

[wet karma]

adding jiggle physics to the gloomwood huntsmen mod finna be fire asf 🔥

speaking of which

[hazy sky]

gloomwood runs on godot?

[hazy sky]

I do not wish to eat this anymore

[wet karma]

no, its on unity i just didn't read the thumbnail alot 😭

[hazy sky]

kinda reminds me of those powerups in shoot em up games where you get a smaller ship to shoot for you

[plain path]

waow

[dusky pivot]

THE CAVE IS COMPLETED!!!

Thanks Churbot

Anyway, that took some time, Im hapy with the results of this area

[slim lance]

@brittle plover, please keep all discussions in English.

[feral ermine]

hell yeah
That looks really good

[dusky pivot]

Thanks ❤️

[hazy sky]

good shit

makes me wanna replay RE1 again

[dusky pivot]

Hell yeah

[hazy sky]

I've been thinking chat

I think I might have over complicated the ammo system in my game

you see, the ammo is separate from the weapons as in there is an ammo manager within the player that tracks reserve ammo

every ammo type is pooled together

so pistols use pistol ammo, smg's use smg ammo ect

maybe now I feel like a simple reserve pool for each weapon would have done it justice just fine

can someone give me their thoughts about this

[mossy topaz]

Does the shared ammo have some strategic impact? For example, are there (or do you plan to have) situations where you may have multiple msgs and decide that not using the most powerful one is the best thing to do?

Think about using the standard vs super shotgun in quake

The other scenario is if you can end up having lots of similar weapons, then it may be easier to manage shared pools, like in borderlands. If not, then i would go for separate ammo for each weapon, but if you already implemented the ammo as shared you might as well keep the system, and just create a single pool for every weapon. Don't know much about your game so this is the best i can think of

[hazy sky]

there are gonna be lots of similar weapons tbh, i already have like 4 pistols, 3 smg's etc etc so I don't know

I should just go for per weapon reserve like timesplitters and perfect dark did

[waxen plover]

caveman

[dusky pivot]

Improved this a bit, added some cool plants around :3

[hazy sky]

ok noticed a weird thing

see how it goes to round 17

the shotgun (or any weapons that deal damage via more than 1 bullets) deal their damage under one process frame

so they send the dead signal like 10 times

poor guys don't even know they're dead

[hazy sky]

also rewatching the footage holy shit the shotgun just makes the enemies SHIT out powerups

[simple hamlet]

hawk tuah!!

[hazy sky]

what does it have to do with the channel

[hazy sky]

chat what does it take to list a game on steam? apart from the 100 papers for it

[azure flume]

100$

and 18+ years old too I guess

and your/your companies tax infos

and 2356236236 assets for the steam store page

[dusky pivot]

waow

[hazy sky]

this is gonna be dogshit

i don't like how the UV is

[hazy sky]

fuck i hate how much this looks like the shotgun i made for plazmin

it is especially apparent when i show the smaller variant

altho i think plazmin's is more detailed

[toxic hemlock]

what prompt did u use

[hazy sky]

should be distinct enough

i really love those alpha cutout triggers and guards

idk who gave me the idea to use them but thanks

[hazy sky]

i used the "suck me off @toxic hemlock" prompt its pretty good

[waxen plover]

"this is gonna be dogshit"
proceeds to cook up the best shotgun texture i've ever seen

[hazy sky]

holy fucking shit chat

i asked the godot discord if there was a better way to handle my bullets

"yeah don't do this"

so after rewriting my bullet script holy FUCKING shit

ZERO misses

no more phasing through the walls

i can't believe it was this simple

and it actually fixed the tracers as well

i'm actually so happy

[hazy sky]

separate ammo pools for upgraded and normal bullets

also finally added placeholder timesplitters-esque animations for ALL of the weapons that do not have animations defined

[hazy sky]

@slender knoll look how good it looks now man

[merry lotus]

trying a new way of generating primitives for maps

not sure if this is a GOOD way but

[merry lotus]

so it works it's just using the wrong textures for and indices for anything that's not the first miptex used

this is better

not good but better

there we go

i'm pretty proud of this
