not what i meant

it has a bunch of settings which i dont like by default
imma show which
these
for example if i want the smoothness to be at a different level when i create a new material at all times

You can create your own "create material" button, but I don't think you can override what Create -> Material does
There might be a way (SRP probably needs that to override the default shader) but I don't know how myself

So you want the default smoothness to be different when making a new material or something along those lines?
Because if that's what you're trying to do, it's a bit of a ghetto solution, but create a material with the desired default parameters, name it "base" or "default" or something, then when you make a new material, instead of creating a new material, just duplicate the default one, edit it however you need, then move it to whatever folder it needs to be in.

I'm conflicted
I wanted to name my game (previously known as Universal Kill Switch/ MaxSine) "From Dust to Rust" but it's bit of a mouthful so I tried to shorten it down to "Dust to Rust" and now I'm trying to decide what kind of title card I'm wanting to go for design wise
and it's not workin out too well
So I'm honestly tempted to name it just "Dust" due to there being an already existing game named Rust, but now I'm like "It fucking sounds too much like Dusk"
Help?

If you keep the title as from dust to rust you can just shorten it to "FDTR"
or if you don't count to, it can be "FDR"

"The Shadeborne are a reclusive nation of cyborgs that have been given prophecies of DAYBREAK thousands of years ago. They live in such intense fear of DAYBREAK that they purposely fill their planets atmosphere with smog to blot out the sun, drape themselves in heavy cloaks, and replace their flesh with steel so their skin will never be touched by the rays of the awoken suns. The most devout amongst them even ritualistically peel out their own eyes so they may never see the light of day."

Nice works on my machine argument.

Clearly you haven't worked on a large animation with a lot of bones.

I highly doubt that.

80 bones actually (was a commission sent by a team of 8 people, one of the few times I actually got payed a hefty amount for my work)
They wanted faceplates and different moving parts to the model that I *could've * gotten away with just using shape keys, but eh, don't want to temp my fate with how many I'd need and how many the game engine they're wanting supports

There's no reason for split normals to just, tank performance.

Try it, it does tank performance.

It's the same as marking the edges as sharp

No, no it isn't, Blender's implementation of split normals is just, fucked for some reason.
arctic radish

you clearly don't know how to use that option
you don't use the Split edge modifier for it

I'm not using another modifier though.
Just turning on autosmooth can tank perf.

this is with (check the upper left text for the stats of the model itself)
this is without
wraith beacon
It only tanks perf when doing animation playback though.
arctic radish
no added verts, edges, or splits
wraith beacon
Because it's having to recalculate normals every frame.
arctic radish
if you set it to only 30, yes it will, but if you set it to like 180, and manually mark edges as sharp, it won't have to

wraith beacon
It is absolutely correct.

Would be nice if they mentioned that in the changelogs then, also doesn't help that I still have to use 2.9X for work.
arctic radish
my 2.93 version doesn't, nor does my 3.0 version
the only time it dips in frames was when I had ~>300K verts but even then I really don't think people should be animating with that high of poly unless it's for CGI or some sorta in game cutscene model
wraith beacon
For First person stuff the assets get pretty heavy.
arctic radish
how detailed are you wanting first person assets to be? do you bake the details?
genuine question
wraith beacon
Generally I don't make the assets for my first person work. But a significant chunk of the cost comes from things like bone constraints.
arctic radish
does your models use Rigify? if so that'll do it
IK constraints in blender is fine, so are 90% of the "copy/limit" constraints, it's when it comes to Dampen tracks or tacking constraints is when it can get taxing I find
wraith beacon
No, I don't use rigify.
arctic radish
okay good, Rigify tends to screw people over because a lot of the tweaks and controls on the rig take a lot of calculation due to how many constraints one bone tends to have
for standalone/one off/for render models? it's good. For animation/game orientated models? God awful

I usually use mixamo to rig my models, sometimes it doesn't work out (like 80% of the time) but it gets the job done

I have a lil problem in a unity game
I need to do a entity that does a "tp dash" or something like that
Like a special cuphead dash
That teleports you to the next position
Somebody has any ideas?
fast vault
You just want the player to teleport? Then you just change the transform.position to where you want it to go. Say 2 units in front, them you can just create a Vector3 that's equal to transform.position + transform.forward * 2
crimson tapir
Like a special cuphead dash
Depends how you set up your character. If you have a character controller attached you need to disable it before you set the transform position and re-enable it afterwards. Or if it doesn't have one you can just set the transform like Junga said.
merry lotus
What I did in one of my projects is that I would teleport the player where the dash would end and use a raycast to detect if there are any walls in the way
There is also a offset vector for smoothing, after the player teleports then that offset vector is equal to the end position minus the start position, and then I use either Vector3.Lerp or Vector3.MoveTowards to move the offset vector to zero
Kinda complicated but this is my strategy
desert shard
Or if your character uses a rigidbody, you can just set the velocity and then invoke a function after a certain time to reset the velocity to 0
Ensures that you don't end up dashing somewhere where you didn't mean to
( i.e if the offset position ends up being behind a wall or something )
arctic radish
ornate flare
If its a enemy that does the dash
Do i still need to disable controllers or movement?
Because i want to make it tp in a certain animation frame
Like
The enemy has a normal dash in first phase
And a tpdash in the second
The enemy needs to calculate the position of the player, and tp in front of him
neon geode
idk
coroutines or somthing
you can use player.transform.forward in unity
it gets the vector that the player is facing
after that i have no idea but

transform.position += transform.forward * dashDistance;

I have spent an unreal amount of time getting this shotgun working
Model isn't mine, the animations and code are though
The sauce is that the shotgun's alt fire is slam firing, which means it's a way faster semi-auto at a much worse spread
I need to redo all the animations.. again... but whatever it works now and it took me like 3 days

I had a whole weapon system that I had to redesign to make it work
what issues did you run into? asking for a friend who happens to share my name and appearance.
humble dagger
Well.. it's complicated
humble dagger
So I'm making a generic weapon scripting system so that they all inherit from the same object (the Weapon class)
It's so I can make them all cram into an inventory neat and tidy in an array of some kind. The plan is to have a lot of weapons players can switch between
I also need all of the animations to be fully dynamic, at least speed wise, as all of the weapons come with individual stats that affect fire rate, reload speed, etc
earnest lily
I see
humble dagger
Hang on let me just like
Paste the shotgun code
It's a bit large but it's easier to answer questions like this
The unfortunate thing about the shotgun is it required a full reimplementation of my Update hook
The main issues I ran into were related to the alt firing, as I had only built the system to handle two firemodes, and definitely not both mouse buttons at once. So I had to add several things to determine which buttons were pressed and when, as well as like, keep the weapon state as accurate as possible
Lots of little tweaks on a system I had to do a lot of rewriting for, like the if statement in the reload section to see if the magazine is full. If I didn't do that, the gun plays an extra shell sound because of code flow
For the sake of it, here's what a more "normal" gun looks like. I'll post a video of it firing in a second, but this is an AK that always fires an extra shot and has its spread increase the longer you hold Mouse1

Every racer will be the same other than their design + animations
Because if I did add that stuff then there would be one supreme character that everyone would choose and nobody would choose the other characters

Here is the network topology I have planned for Daybreak.
Clients auto-connect to a "master server" which holds a list of active servers in the region, sends them back to the client to create the server list, which the player can then join from. The servers connect to the master server on creation as well to send over the needed info for a player to join and when the server shuts down, it sends a message to the master server to remove it from the list. If a player wants to play offline it creates a server under the localhost address that does not contact the master server.

Dude how'd you do that directional sprite thing? I've always wanted to try that in Unity
pure jackal
Black Magic.
It does not
Only how he makes the sprites themselves
Not the implementation
arctic radish
I'd just set the sprite depending on the "forward" direction of the object that holds the sprite and find the camera angle is beyond a certain angle from that "forward" direction.
so effectively the camera angle will be the trigger to change the sprite to face a different direction/frame
merry lotus
Dude how'd you do that directional sprite thing? I've always wanted to try that ...
So basically there's an array of sprites that's 8 spaces long, and in the update method we get the angle between the camera and the sprite. Using the angle we return the index of the sprite we're gonna use (They have to be in a specific order) After that's done then we rotate the sprite to look at the camera but only on the Y axis.
My implementation isn't that good but it's better than buying a 20 dollar asset from the asset store
arctic radish
merry lotus
Also looking at the GetIndex function gives me anxiety
wooden tusk
the car
arctic radish
I was correct, also I noticed that you wouldn't need (I'd think) to have the sprites in any particular order as long as you were to have equal frames and a "Center frame"
like here (Green = Center)
the Orange would be where you could just mirror the sprite if you wanted to
You could theoretically make 2 sprite sheets
one for the front facing, one for the behind
and the "Center frame" would be perfectly aligned sheet wise in the center (so it'd go: Left, Bottom Left > bottom Center > Bottom Right > Right)
and no matter where the array is, you'd always know which frame is the center one because both the Front sheet and Behind sheet are the same frame numbers
or hell, you could even use an int for keeping track of the frame position
from 0 to 5 (or 1 to 6)
where 2 (or 3) is always going to be the center frame in all the sheets
and seeing how you know where the center is, you can determine which angle you'd want just by adding or subtracting from that int value by 1
saves having to deal with the array and you can add more sprite sheets with ease if you want to have unique angle looks instead of flipping the sprites
fast vault
So basically there's an array of sprites that's 8 spaces long, and in the update...
Cool! I'm gonna check out that script later. My initial idea was using some kinda Animator Blend Tree haha

how did you know how to pre-calc lighting on props? don't you have to take into account the actual map's lighting as well?
that's one little trick i still don't know how it's done

uh it was mainly just importing level geo and baking in ambient occlusion into the main texture or a texture in the 2nd UV
using substance
or baking in some extra detail to the tiling texture

oh ok just AO

when i heard "pre-calc lighting" i was thinking all the lighting information was done externally lol

but yeah that makes much more sense

not like massive parts of the environment at once, mainly just flourishes of diffuse style shading on most materials, e.g. baking in AO, shadows, cavity mapping, etc into the albedo
sometimes importing in existing level geo to make it more accurate

I've adjusted the synth to not peak (thank fuck) and while I was at it changed a few things around and added more now
