i cannot rn,,,,,,,,
i just said i need to shake back into the prime form before working on it
hazy sky
i wanna start with the audio design portion first because i feel like that's what gives soul to these kind of games
merry lotus
just added texture metadata
i don't think there's gonna be that many uses for this but it's useful to have nonetheless
i mainly added it because the crosshair texture wrapping was messed up when combined with GUI scaling
i also made a class that prints to both the system console and the in-game console
in-game console is still wip
working on dead end has been really fun
collision detection aside
hazy sky
holy shit ghetto blaster MP40
merry lotus
added panoramic skybox uvs that are calculated in the map fragment shader
this way I don't have to add another rendering pass for the skybox
the aurora skybox is just for testing
also I might still add another rendering pass for 3d skyboxes

finally some good fucking working platforms
also the stats are working
vitality increases the player's maximum health
endurance controls the player's stamina, raises load cap and also reduces bleed chance
strength directly increases melee damage, also physical defense and mitigates some equip load debuffs
dexterity is a check, weapons require this, also reduces fall damage
intelligence directly raises the mana cap, as well as magic defense and damage
faith scales some faith based weapons damage, as well as providing damage gating chances
luck scales critical hit chances, and lowers chances of effects proccing on the player
humanity raises item drop rate, elemental defense and some NPC's speeches will change depending on it's value
hazy sky
okay so now i polished up everything i didn't give a fuck about so the HUD is separate, stats work properly, and there are interactibles
now it's onto the inventory system, then menus, then combat

it was just simply for visualization purposes
but exporting also applies it

thanks nora for the idea

gonna try adding source style 3d skyboxes
are they gonna be just model or is it gonna be like source 2 type where it's their own levels
merry lotus
i'm not sure what you mean
it's basically just an area outside the map with a camera inside
there's also this variable inside of my custom info_sky entity that lets you influence the sky camera's position based on the player camera's position
if it's set to 0 then the sky camera won't move
if it's set to 1 then the sky camera's position will be the same as the player camera's position + the sky camera's origin
merry lotus
we're getting there
yay
and by adjusting the posmul value we can do stuff like this

substance painter
with the pixel8r filter
hazy sky
sucks that it's so complicated but after a while it just clicks
sharp vortex
Well I need something that's at least better than blender texture painting and I had been considering trying substance painter
and all the free alternatives have sucked ass
hazy sky
this one sucks ass as well, but there are 399483 tutorials for it so it balances out
Definitely makes things easier tho
you need a specific workflow for it to work best though
like if you wanna make the best of the textures, you need to also create a higher poly model for baking down the data for the texture

- items dropped by enemies are flushed on restart
- if you grab something BEFORE a checkpoint, it'll stay grabbed and gone
- the weapons in your inventory ||get a free repair up to 50%||

but one of these instances is when the mini scoots out from the garage, one of the thugs that climb over the wall on the right pathfind inside sometimes and get stuck on the wall
especially apparent because the pistol is also there so that fella can get stuck quite often
OH also sometimes i can somehow duplicate weapons, and sometimes the grounded state doesn't get set when landing and i'm doing like 2 kazotsky kicks before i can attack with the weapons again
i wish i made videos of those but these are neat too

How the heck do I kick jump in Dom's game ?
Yo @earnest lily . Pardon the ping but I've been stuck in the tutorial for the last 15 mins kek
Maybe I just suck .....
Wait nvmd. I just suck. Got it
desert shard
Okay, I played through it twice to get an idea of it and here's my thoughts @earnest lily
Firstly, you've absolutely NAILED the game feel. Hits just FEEL so damn good that I wanted to keep playing again and again if I died. Same applies to blocks as well. This game's got juice for days. The aesthetic also really complements the scrappy street brawl feeling that you're going for. Love how grungey the game is overall and how enemies get more dirtier and bloodier when they're close to being beaten
Also love how you force players to find weapons since it's the only way they can block. Also enforces that scrappy street brawl feel since you need to improvise in a way. The different weapons offering different types of attacks is also very cool ( shovels are strong attacks and pipes are light attacks )
While I like how you automatically throw a weapon when it's broken, the game is severely calling out for some way to throw a weapon. There were way too many moments where I wished I could just throw my weapon to atleast slow an enemy down so that I could go for another weapon. On that note, I think the stun states for enemies could be a little longer ( i.e the state that they're in where you can go in for an execution )
Love how enemies ragdoll when you execute them with a kick. Like I said before, it FEELS so damn good. That said, kicks feel kinda useless outside of that since they basically just operate the same as normal attacks. Maybe you could have them just knock enemies back a bit ? When I say knock back, I don't mean knock them to the ground, maybe just push them back a bit. This doesn't need to do much damage, but it would definitely help in terms of crowd control. Something which this game really needs more options to help you with imo
While I love the approach that you're going with of needing to stand your ground so to speak, I think the game is really begging for some other movement option as well like a dash. Either that, or the player could move a little faster, because right now he feels a little too slow. I'd occasionally re-position myself in the game, but faster movement or some sort of dodge woul go a long way
Now for the enemies, I think they all telegraph their attacks pretty well, especially the heavy enemy who can't be blocked. That said, I feel like the boss's attacks aren't really telegraphed well. His animations were a little too erratic and similar to the point that his attack animations didn't really stand out as much as they should have. Along with that, they're WAY too quick. His kick(?) attack isn't really that visible either and I was wondering why I was even taking damage at some points.
Also, I thought that the boss being stunned meant that I could execute him by kicking or something. Took me a min at first to realise that I needed to combo him at that point. Maybe this is just me being pig-headed, but you could use a different indicator for when he's in that state maybe ? This is probably just a skill issue from my side so maybe ignore it, but I thought I'd mention it
Also, I wasn't really sure what actions would give me back health or not. Maybe just a little more tutorialisation of this would help a lot. Since sometimes, normal hits gave me back health, whereas sometimes executions gave me back health
I also had some input issues. There were points where the attack button just wasn't working and so I had to kick once to get it to work after. Same with blocking. It wasn't working until after I tried attacking once. I'm not sure if this is input delay or something else, since I also tried the game with two different mice and had the same issue.
And on another note in terms of level design, I think it could've been shown a little better which way you had to go since I couldn't really tell at first. Especially since a lot of the walls looked like I could jump over them
Gripes aside though, this is a very solid base to build on. Wishlisted and I can't wait to see what you do with it
earnest lily
Bad ping
earnest lily
Okay, I played through it twice to get an idea of it and here's my thoughts <@14...
Catching up now - for input issues Id need a video
hazy sky
he's right tho, you definitely need to add a button for throwing a weapon for like a 20% durability loss + breaking on impact if the durability is not enough to withstand that
after years of dying light, pressing right click and seeing the pipe raise up, i kept trying to throw the weapon
the stun states seem to be dependent on if they are lesser or stronger enemies, and since the game (in my experience) rewards aggression i think it's safe to say the finishing kicks have very good timing on them
hazy sky
Okay, I played through it twice to get an idea of it and here's my thoughts <@14...
also the kicks interrupt enemy attacks, great when you don't have a weapon to block with
that being said i think the jumping could use some work because it feels weighty, but in a floaty way, it's hard to describe, also Dom if you intend to have more sections where you drop down and use a dude as a landing pad, ease the clamp on the camera rotation because in the tutorial you have a hard time looking down at the dude
AND my personal nitpick, the shovel covers way too much of the screen but i think i'm the only one who really minds so take that with a grain of salt
(also please don't use invisible barriers on wide open passages in the fence PLEASE, first time around i was having a hard time on the second level because i didn't know where to go at the cement mixer where you climb the building, i thought that area was out of bounds too and didn't even bother to check)

Movement speed / tech is especially a point of contention
Together with weapon throwing, they all seem to point towards "tugg is way too fucking slow" / " the arenas in map1 are way too fucking big"
( as well as not having an impromptu ranged option )

it's not that it's slow, it's well paced when in combat and is only missing some key refinements
you could add a sprint function when not in combat
sort of like how Devil May Cry does it, run for a while and the sprint auto kicks in, or have the movement speed get faster when not in combat
like overall, fast movement speed can also lead to issues within combat because being too fast to control sucks as well, but being too sluggish sucks even more and i think you've struck the balance really well because i was dodging the boss left and right when he did the ground pound with the shovel

went back and made a concept/bestiary entry art for the Deniers as well, using the high poly sculpt of the model that i traced over and shaded in blender, i will go back and add the new details onto the model, as well as make some adjustments on the model itself

I'll try to cook something up on the weekend
sharp vortex
Really most of my issue is just needing to be more patient in all aspects (better modeling, more detailed texturing), i'm more interested to see if I'm missing any extra tools or methods, I dont care for copying art styles, I just make stuff how I feel like it
Granted I'm turbo early in development so I'm mostly just doing placeholder stuff (or stuff I'll fix/ improve later) so as to prevent myself from getting caught wasting time on for instance art instead of the shit I NEED to do like animation and combat stuff

can you elaborate on your process and flow so i can check in general
heh
sharp vortex
can you elaborate on your process and flow so i can check in general
I just start out in blender and build a low poly model as fast as I can that also looks acceptable from scratch or using a side monitor picture reference, when it looks acceptable I Smart UV Unwrap and set island distance to like .05 or w/e, make sure it looks OK, then I save/export.
After that I either subdivide modifier or bevel some stuff to add "smoothing" detail, I save/export that as "modelname_hi". I load the lowpoly up into Substance Painter at like 2048 resolution, bake the hi onto the low for normals, and AO, making sure it looks good, adjusting resolution as needed.
Once that's good I slap on Pixel8r onto my brush and start going to town. After that I export the things I need and create a new Material in Blender then slap it onto the model, usually also turning off all texture filtering and crushing the resolution some more.
sharp vortex
well as a filter
hazy sky
as i see
hazy sky
you are following the guide i linked here right?
sharp vortex
no lol
hazy sky
wait did i even link it here
hazy sky
sadly pixel8r makes you lose out on the emissive layer, but you can draw it in either externally, or a new project like i do
but setting up pixel8r means you use a fill layer that's completely black, and everything pixel8r does goes into the emissive layer
sharp vortex
I add emissive as a fill layer, set the layer to black, then use gradiant and then I apply pixel8r to the black part of the layer
sharp vortex
one sec
hazy sky
let me check as well
hazy sky
one sec
sharp vortex
I can add extra coloring too, this is just a quick way to do it for a single color
hazy sky
add an anchor to pixel8r, create a fill layer, set it to completely black
and hook up the emissive to the pixel8r's anchor point
sharp vortex
hmm I'll try that later
hazy sky
after that if you switch it to emissive up here, it gets rid of ALL shading from substance, meaning you'll only see what you have baked down or drawn in
what i do for really black blacks is to do pre-light bake colors
that way the brush strokes are applied after the baked lighting
otherwise the darks are also lit by the lights
very good for deep contours
you can see the difference
sharp vortex
You'll have to show me how you do that
I really do want that kind of artificial AO look
hazy sky
it's really not hard, let me show ya
divide the layers into three segments
bottom should be things you want lit, middle are the lights, top should be shadows or details that you absolutely don't want lit
that means either dark darks or brights
another thing
hazy sky
I really do want that kind of artificial AO look
also fuck man hop on over to dm's i hate the slowmode in #general-modding
hazy sky
in hindsight i should have separated the mask from the model
i find the tall pointy mask so much more cooler
i think that's the ticket

dusky pivot
as in keyframe only
Isnt this how you animate normally tho?.... or have I been 
all this time
stiff thorn
I mean, the ideal for most animators is to combine the two
you create the main poses with keyframes and then edit/manage the motion and how each bone transitions between those keyframes with curves
waxen plover
I kinda... dig it?
I do good animations in the blue theme
good models in the pitch black theme
for some reason
stiff thorn
so like, curves are mostly there for you to change how the bones ease in/ease out, rotate and etc. without spamming a bunch of keyframes everywhere that can become messy and unmanageable
stiff thorn

I do not do this because while I understand curves, with exception to ease management I can't really do what I want without taking 2x as much time as I would going keyframe only
probably not the best approach but it's what works for me

I'm curious, How can one find playtesters for their game? it would be nice to have them in advance
Also how can make sure that people on my team won't leak future plans given that my game will be release in early access (There will be content drops for the game for a few times per year)
sharp vortex
I'm curious, How can one find playtesters for their game? it would be nice to ha...
First one is you either pay some people, which involves a contract etc etc. especially if you want to demand they are available exactly when you need them, OR you get some friends to play your game and have them talk about their experience, which is less efficient but it's indie dev who cares. Third hidden option is you play the shit out of your game, including any other developers, on top of having friends or random mutuals play the game.
Avoiding leaks is the same as option 1 from above, contracts. NDA typically.

fix those, work on some other edge cases with the new insight, implement new stuff, reach new goal, test stuff again until you feel confident, ask friends again, get feedback, fix those again etc
