what's your keyboard layout

[bitter marsh]

I can send an image of the keyboard

[subtle wasp]

sure, thats what i was asking

[bitter marsh]

Here it is

I can show you the fn keys better because theyre at an angler

[subtle wasp]

ohh

so yours is the one that has a ?

click the one that looks like ` ?

do three backticks

then py

then your code

then three more with no py

[bitter marsh]

'''py print('hello world''''

Like this?

These are just apostrophies

[subtle wasp]

print:("Hello World")```

ohh

hmm

[bitter marsh]

maybe you can see better like this

[subtle wasp]

your keyboard doesnt have one

yeah

your keyboard doesnt have a backtick

[bitter marsh]

Oh alright then

[subtle wasp]

do you have any other keyboards?

[bitter marsh]

Thats unfortunate

The one on my pc

[subtle wasp]

the on-screen keyboard?

[bitter marsh]

No the one on the pc

I dont have a computer like one with a case and all that

I only have a pc

So it has its own keyboard

[subtle wasp]

ohh, do you have a laptop?

[bitter marsh]

Yeah

[subtle wasp]

@bitter marsh

alr

check below your esc key

send me a picture

[bitter marsh]

But i think it doesnt have a backtick either

[subtle wasp]

ill tell you where it is

send me a picture of your laptop keyboard

ill check for you

[bitter marsh]

Here it is

[subtle wasp]

same layout

you dont have a backtick

if you can

order a US model 60 or 75% keyboard off of amazon or walmart

or go to the store and buy one

[bitter marsh]

I think i know what to do

[subtle wasp]

see if it has something like this one it `

[bitter marsh]

Since i have two screens

[subtle wasp]

its a ` ~ key

[bitter marsh]

I could put a digital keyboard on the second that i never use

[subtle wasp]

do you use windows (specifically 10 or 11, i'm not too sure of older versions)?

[bitter marsh]

11

[subtle wasp]

your on-screen keyboard should have a backtick

go to settings

[bitter marsh]

Alright

what now?

[subtle wasp]

type onscreen keyboard in search

turn that on

look for a ` ~ like key

[bitter marsh]

I think the problem might be italian layouts

Because the digital one doesnt have it either

So if i just change it to american i might fix it

Yooo i got it

Thank you sm man

[subtle wasp]

yw

sorry for responding late im trying to fix my game launcher

[vivid sedge]

I know the basics of python, no pygame so just text, no visuals, and I want to test my skills. However, whenever I start a project I realize I am not at the level to do a project of that scale, and I was wondering if anyone had any basic game ideas I could try to make (no tutorial) so that I am able to practice my skills but not attempt something way above my knowledge level.

[rapid charm]

i just finished making a simple dice game. all input and print tho. its my first program. you could try that?

[vivid sedge]

That's basically the type of game I'm looking to make

How exactly did it play?

/what was the objective

[rapid charm]

called bones, ten thousand or 1's and 5's. i have a file outlining the game i wrote before i coded anything, i could drop that file here if you want

[vivid sedge]

Sure

[frank field]

Please react with ✅ to upload your file(s) to our paste bin, which is more accessible for some users.

[rapid charm]

exciting game when played in real life lol

[rapid charm]

if you code it id love to compare code

[wooden night]

Sooo…. I made mobile control joystick…

[frank field]

Click here to see this code in our pastebin.

[wooden night]

Any suggestions

[final agate]

Top ai use cases in game development for beginners to advanced

List

[vagrant saddle]

handle hotplugging : connect/disconnect/reconnect of stick properly with JOYDEVICEADDED JOYDEVICEREMOVED and send real stick events to the game loop, ideally the mock should be able to drive the standard joystick test https://github.com/pygame-web/showroom/blob/main/src/test_pad.py

also multitouch option would be great to handle two analog hats at the same time

this could be really usefull with a html/svg bezel and pygame web mobile games which actually suffer from actually requiring a bt keyboard

[vivid sedge]

sorry for not responding, phone died and I forgot. I think I'll start with rock paper scissors and try to add some flair to it, if you have any ideas that would be great, but if not ill send my code when im done

[rapid charm]

Awesome. No ideas yet but if something pops I'll pass it on. The "rock paper scissors" game would fit into an RPG nicely tho as a side thing. The dice game would too. Like a little game room at the local inn.

[formal phoenix]

here's a game i made, its v3 at the moment. If you have any suggestions, let me know

[frank field]

There was an error uploading your paste.

[wooden night]

So i have a whole game that only uses 2 dualsense controllers to play and its a 2-4 player game... but the organization is almost destroyed when I couldn't figure out why both controllers are viberating, only one was

[wooden night]

I thing if u make two instance of joystick class, on right and another on left it'll workout

Also i added direction and vector output to it in the new code

[gusty rune]

Y'all made a game 👀

[dawn quiver]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVawmPZEwU0&ab_channel=tokyospliff

something on that level

[cerulean nimbus]

looking clean :)

not even a sprite just coded it :)

[cerulean nimbus]

some improvements for now

dont question the scaling of the money just for testing purposes

[coral sparrow]

Import "pygame" could not be resolved can someone help???

[robust raft]

@coral sparrow Did you install the package with Pip?

[karmic summit]

Heya idk if this is breaking rules bc idk if this is off topic or not since it is kinda on the topic of game dev and I don't know if I should put this in the help section since I do need help but this isn't on python or anything so I wanna get pico 8 for free so I found this free git hub version but idk if the file has any virus or smthing I need help finding out if it is a virus or not bc I want to make a game using pico 8 here's the file: https://github.com/drerx/PICO-8_free

[broken kayak]

Anyone that can Help me make my game? I still have the wish but since ive gotten my pc taken away, i need help from ppl to help me

[livid bronze]

Let’s make a iOS game where you collect boxes kinda like pokemon cards each box has a fun unique value inside 😮‍💨. Boom billion dollar franchise

[stray goblet]

Hey Guys! I'm a newbie here, if anyone would be kind enough to tell me from where I can start in this domain, I mean it has been an interest and now I want to pursue it full time.

[stray goblet]

Please count me in when you get started on this😅

[coral sparrow]

https://www.w3schools.com/python/default.asp You can use this website for basics

[stray goblet]

Thanks Mate ! But it seems I wasn't clear about the domain, I was specifically talking about game development😅

[coral sparrow]

okay

sorry

you can make easy games with terminal or you can make using pygame

[stray goblet]

Okay, so I would have to explore pygames. Thanks

[coral sparrow]

from start i rather to make games in terminal something like this

import random
while True:
    yesorno= random.randint(1,2)
    question= input("ask question: ")
    if question== "end":
        break
    if yesorno== 1:
        print("No")
    if yesorno== 2:
        print("yes")

to know the basics

but if you want to make games in pygame

you need to install it

[stray goblet]

The guessing games, yeah I have tried them

Like where we try to guess the numbers within certain attempts no?

[coral sparrow]

this game is something like ouija board

you ask and the program tells you

so you want to do games in pygame?

[stray goblet]

Yeah but I think for sometime I should work on some terminal ones too

[coral sparrow]

i can help you with some basics in pygame

i'm begginer but i know something

[stray goblet]

Nice!

[coral sparrow]

okay you need to install pygame you know how?

[stray goblet]

Through pip?

No I don't know that

[coral sparrow]

yes through pip

pip install pygame

insert it in terminal

[stray goblet]

Okay

[coral sparrow]

terminal python

[stray goblet]

Look at this one that I coded a few months ago

https://withererone.github.io/tic-tac-toe/

[coral sparrow]

it's good

[stray goblet]

It has twist in it

There's no option to make a draw

It's either win or lose

[merry basalt]

hey im new to coding
ive only done the basics but i want to try to make a game

i was wondering how to start and which language would be the best for new coders

[stray goblet]

It Really depends brother what kind of you want to build

I'm also moving in that direction, I'm also a beginner so I have thought about exploring pygames first

[merry basalt]

tbh idk which type of game i wanna make

i just wanna browse for now ig

[stray goblet]

Oh looking for ideas, Nice !

[pine smelt]

pygame probably the best for understanding the underlying game logic and puzzles u have to figure out

ts like a good foundation for using a game engine, but some ppl prefer going straight into an engine like unity or something that uses C# iirc

[merry basalt]

ight thanks ima try them and give feedback

but tmmr not today

im tired now :/

[wet tide]

Im making my first ever game for a project and I want to make a game without watching a full blown how to make a game tutorial. Could anyone recommend me how to figure out things like how to jump in a game or should I just watch a tutorial on those sorts of things

[livid bronze]

Will do brother 😅, also glad to see your getting into the py game ecosystem of game dev, very glad to have ya here

[stray goblet]

Thanks mate ! I'm Glad to connect with you

[manic chasm]

hii

[wooden night]

How do u do .py -> .apk free and in windows

Also my game is using pygame-ce

[vagrant saddle]

the simplest way would be to use docker as described here https://gist.github.com/emersonmx/c5bba202506e3c3d2d828ad278a8d5fe

[vagrant saddle]

and the simplest way to run pygame-ce on -all- mobiles is packing the game for webview with pygbag

[wooden night]

@vagrant saddle ok

[gaunt nacelle]

are we allowed to talk about gdscript (it has a lot of functions and things similar to python)

[gaunt nacelle]

would suggest godot, it has a simple ui with very easy ways to make game objects that can be reused (eg platforms, spikes) and the scripthing language (gdscript) is easy to use

[merry basalt]

ight thanks

[gaunt nacelle]

your welcome

[marble jewel]

I just thought I would leave this here. It gave me a laugh when it took me off guard

[tired reef]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/WZBIQOMKI2EU7F5HKGKFPNL37Y

I'm getting a cycle error

[manic chasm]

oh miss this game

[hoary sphinx]

i downloaded this a few years back and i still do have it on my computer. so as far as my experience, its safe and works! both on linux and windows

[karmic summit]

YIPPEE tysm dude!

[hoary sphinx]

no problem bro!

[sleek gust]

how do y'all go about promoting your game

[wooden night]

i have made a dual joystick which works for both(finger touch and mouse) but i don’t really know it works with finger or not… so any suggestions?

[frank field]

Click here to see this code in our pastebin.

[wooden night]

I made this in replit.com, because I am not able to use VS code for sometime now

[agile fable]

If anyone has uploaded a app onto the apple app store using react native please message me.

[viral estuary]

very giant code blocks

[slate tiger]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/BE3A i made a fangame of DX243's doodle jump clone

there are a few new difficulties

an important one is World's End

on World's End you spawn with 800 health this time

on grandmaster+2 you spawn with 1000

on grandmaster+1 you spawn with 1100

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/4WAQ update: also on worlds end you lose hp 1.08x faster

DX243 if you're reading this you can also add these to your game

[wooden night]

What about it?

[viral estuary]

not how i would code, or many others

maybe its a python thing that you can only do with giant code blocks

[wooden night]

How do u code?

Because I suck at organization

[wooden night]

Are you new to it?

[viral estuary]

no i program in c.

[wooden night]

Oh

Doesn't it uses class for like everything?

I tried to learn C# for unity but focused on pygame more

Btw I made the code in Ipad 💀

[hollow whale]

Are there libraries available that implement geodesic walking on an STL surface, given some travel direction? I know there are libraries that can calculate the geodesic distance between 2 points, but what if you don't know the endpoint in advance?

[proper peak]

Huh, that's an interesting question. I think if you only have a direction, you can walk by repeatedly making small steps in the given direction and then projecting onto the surface (and projecting the walking direction onto the tangent plane at the new position). For that you'd need to be able to find normals to the surface at any point.

[gray matrix]

what?

[sand otter]

https://github.com/Voidray-Engine/Axarion

[wooden night]

Like if u need to code in C++ or in object orented and compiler programming u need to create a class... right? For ex. In c# (I think) you have to do void name(); and then write code inside for it to work... Right?

[hollow whale]

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, do you think floating point accuracy would present a problem eventually?

And also crossing edges seems tricky

[proper peak]

Accuracy is probably not an issue unless you're calculating distances or something? Edges are indeed a problem, specifically I think this algorithm can't handle an edge with a turn of more than 90 degrees.

[pearl zinc]

Hey, I have made blackjack in python, and now would like to display it nicely in the terminal. I'm considering the cursus module or rich/textual. Any recommendations?

[vagrant saddle]

which terminal , nowadays most of them support pygame/panda3d display ( you still have to do vt input yourself though )

vt100 is semi-graphic / vt420+ can handle graphics

for semi-graphics this one is more game oriented than Textual/rich https://github.com/salt-die/batgrl

[pearl zinc]

Yeah, I was just thinking about printing the cards in the terminal if you get what I mean

Nothing too complicated reslly

[torpid rivet]

hola amigos

i just want to ask is their a dedicated game engine that uses python

[granite anchor]

im making one but it's still in WIP

[vagrant saddle]

more like game libraries but you have Pygame-ce , raylib-cpython-ffi, Panda3D and Harfang3D

[torpid rivet]

aye dude that is ambitious , hope you make bro

[torpid rivet]

for libraries i have heard but i was wondering if their is a game engine like godot or something that uses py

[vagrant saddle]

that could probably be awfully specific and expensive or not open source

Harfang Studio , UPBGE maybe

and not sure you can see/change/add python code, they are higly integrated but please try and tell about

[vagrant saddle]

afaik godot 3.x supported python scripting

[proper peak]

well, there was a plugin that added python support. and then godot 4 dropped and this plugin is to this day slowly getting ported: https://github.com/touilleMan/godot-python/issues/407

there's also the alternative https://github.com/niklas2902/py4godot

tbh GDScript is probably about as close as you can get to scripting "in python"; the syntax and features are similar.

[cerulean nimbus]

seems well still a lot of bugs its an old project im retrying. changes rn are instead of the user needing to set up certain stuff in there code it get the window of the process using win32 and embed it in the pyside application.
further improvement i would want to implement is smoother transtition on the embed entering and exiting the window and make the embedding more stable cause in some edge cases this can happen

the embed entering and exiting the window and make the embedding more stable cause in some edge cases this can happen its in the frame but not showing correctly

[jagged lava]

Hello, I'm new to python and learning a lot. I have constructed two games with pygame and actually enjoy the game development aspect. I started looking into Godot and Unity to work my way into learning those after I make a few more games with pygame to get a better understanding of things.
For a beginner trying to learn and work to making more complex games over time, would you recommend Godot or Unity?
I looked into Godot and tried to play with it but it is still a bit confusing to me, I have not tried fiddling with Unity yet.

[rare hatch]

Hi Guys i just finished my frist full game on python i would appreciate u guys if u would test it for me and look in the code for bugs

[ivory rock]

I am looking for help which I detailed in this post: https://discord.com/channels/267624335836053506/1397050189197344768

I am trying to read a linux device file for a Belkin Nostromo n50.

Linux recognizes the device as a joystick.

How do I resolve this message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "~/.config/pystromo/./pystromo-remap.py", line 51, in <module>
  output = devices.OutputDevice()
  File "~/.config/pystromo/lib/devices.py", line 665, in __init__
  self.node = ioctl.OutputNode()
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^
  File "~/.config/pystromo/lib/ioctl.py", line 243, in __init__
  self.createDevice()
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^
  File "~/.config/pystromo/lib/ioctl.py", line 313, in createDevice
  encoded_data = [bytes(item, 'utf-8') for item in USER_DEVICE_DATA]

[ivory rock]

I do not possess sufficient understanding of what this code does, nor know what to study for developing a comprehensive understanding.

What should I study to develop comprehension?

[vagrant saddle]

unix ioctl and device drivers, and in your case probably specifically linux udev and permissions

[formal phoenix]

theres alot of #Chatgpt in code

[rare hatch]

OK

[formal phoenix]

did whole code come from gpt or?

[rare hatch]

nah

only the lists and thats it

aha ok

[rare hatch]

what are good modules to strat making games

depends on your python skills i guess, pygame-ce is great for starting 2D, Panda3D for everything here's some pygame-ce stuff to test https://itch.io/c/2563651/pygame-wasm

[devout citrus]

anyone expert in code can help with game auto script?

[drowsy crater]

@vagrant saddle thanks

@devout citrus can you explain what you need?

[devout citrus]

I play an io game, I need an automation script to play game faster

[drowsy crater]

which io game

is'nt it against the game spirit and maybe against the game terms

idk

i can't help with that

[devout citrus]

this game has top clan which do script 24 hour

the creator doesn't care

me and my teammate already developed basic scripts....but we want powerful script like that clan

[drowsy crater]

1 min lemme check

um so i checked and i found out that even though explicitly stated it could be a bannable offence and is considered bad proactices

practices*

[devout citrus]

in paper yes, but, in actions not that much

[drowsy crater]

well i cant help

[devout citrus]

nvm, thanks for the help

can i get help here #1035199133436354600 my question is about adding 3D objects. This is the question here https://discord.com/channels/267624335836053506/1398124794813218916

[spring zealot]

Adding 3d objects to what?

[vagrant saddle]

to nothing, and that's a bit of a problem doing 3D with pygame-ce. It does not have a scenegraph ready to use unlike Panda3D.

[drowsy crater]

can i get help, my question is about adding 3D objects. This is the question here ⁠
https://discord.com/channels/267624335836053506/1398305894520848434, I asked the same question yesterday but i went to sleep and couldnt see all your answers so im opening a new one

@vagrant saddle

[midnight tusk]

Making my own storage language with custom syntax highlighting I know firebase and MySQL but I wanted to do my own and when downloading the file it’ll be encoded in my own language thought son the syntax highlighting ?

[vagrant saddle]

ask on pygame-ce it won't be closed so soon, there are only few people who do 3D on pygame seriously. tbh go Panda3D right now

go software 3D with https://github.com/rkibria/pyrasterize/ or start fresh with Panda3D you won't be disappointed it can even run on web see https://itch.io/c/3724091/panda3d-wasm

[drowsy crater]

@vagrant saddle well would you reccomend panda3d and if yes could you link to some tutorials. btw does panda3d have raytracing?

[vagrant saddle]

The most important in Panda3D is not what it could do ( because MIT + PR welcome), but more what it already does.

[drowsy crater]

can. you explain

[vagrant saddle]

it is beginner friendly but you can go up to commercial games ( proven ) . Begin to master it, don't chase nice features that actually only some people have on their (very) expensive gpus. Seeking extra feature and updates would distract you from the most important : acquire required skill to make the game.

[drowsy crater]

thank you for your help

[drowsy crater]

@vagrant saddle is Ursina engine better than panda3D for my use case?

[sweet shard]

Ursina is more high level and built on top of Panda3D. I'd check both out and see which one clicks more for you.

👋 Hey everyone!

I’m Abdelrahman – a student from Egypt 🇪🇬 learning Python by building desktop games.

I just launched my first public project:
🎮 A bundle of 3 small desktop games built with PySide6 (Python GUI)

✅ EXE builds
✅ Full source code
✅ Bilingual README (English + Arabic)

I’d love to hear your thoughts or feedback 🙌

4 year on/off so far. About 1 year and a half of that was very full on with the rest being quite casualk

[topaz delta]

[wooden night]

How many files and imges did u used? Cause in opinion it's amazing

[glass light]

Couldn't give an exact number but there's roughly 20k lines of code and I use 4 different sprite sheets, one per area in the game

[wooden night]

Did u ever get performace issues?

could someone test this code?

[bold hill]

Is there a way of making a developer mode so if something is reportedly wrong or to test the game it runs?

[lean cosmos]

check out this game we made ini the GMTK2025 game jam!!
https://mafia-studios.itch.io/in-or-out

[crimson totem]

i would love to work on an rpg game with somone are you still working on it?

[spring zealot]

Lowkey why does this need testing it's pretty self explanatory

[spring zealot]

Yes

[tired reef]

tryed it early

[spring zealot]

Huh?

[tired reef]

in earlyer projcts it broke

[spring zealot]

How so, what broke about it?

[tired reef]

i dont know it was just broken dont know how or why

[spring zealot]

Yeah but like what was the issue, syntax error? Not drawing correctly? Not sliding with variable?

Because most issues probably come from where it's being used not the code itself

[fathom gyro]

wait i can make games in python? i thought it was a web development and coding to contoll your computor kinda laungage

how? what are some codes for inputs and making sprites move

[slow copper]

If you're determined enough, you can make quite literally anything in any language

[fathom gyro]

oh i see

[slow copper]

Do you know about pygame

[fathom gyro]

no not at all im new new

[slow copper]

Pygame is an SDL wrapper which allows you to make graphical stuff likes games

You can check that out

[fathom gyro]

thank you i will

[slow copper]

You can also check out ursina if you're looking for a game engine type library, you'll have to do quite a decent amount of document reading since there arent many yt tutorials of it

[fathom gyro]

okay i might have to look up a couple tutorials

[small beacon]

.

Yeah im still working on it.

Im down to start a newTextRPG project with you if you want

[covert rose]

i love this kind of projects.

[versed garnet]

For code review, do I just post my github link here?

[covert rose]

i think you can if it is about making games.

[crimson totem]

I am working on a game I am just making sure I can post screenshots here or only certain people can post here I am wanting to get feedback on how to expand and improve my game

[versed garnet]

Yeah, made a post in python help and was directed here so just making sure of the rules

[covert rose]

is it a python game?

[crimson totem]

it is

[limber veldt]

It's okay to share screens here, I've done it quite a lot, even some short vids

[covert rose]

common post it , i want to see.

[versed garnet]

Hi! Finally got Github to cooperate, so now I’m looking for review on my first full on project with coding.

I’ve done Python and Html in bits for a few years now, but only with codecademy book learning, never a full on project. So I built this mini game (Kritikal Maze) using Python

Admittedly, I did use Chatgpt as a resource as I’m new to many of the concepts it introduced and I had it take me step by step as my goal isn’t to just throw stuff together for me to copy and paste, but to actually learn, so everything is typed and I tried commenting for better understanding of some lines, so if there’s anything that’s just wrong or impractical, please let me know!

All feedback/criticism welcome

https://github.com/Andredabeast/Game-Portfolio

[covert rose]

https://tenor.com/view/it-wasnt-that-hard-to-find-you-it-was-easy-to-find-you-you-werent-doing-a-good-job-of-hiding-i-found-you-easily-it-didnt-take-much-to-find-you-gif-16058340

[versed garnet]

The idea of the game is to promote critical thinking in a fun way, primarily for the youth, but many adults these days lack what I consider basic critical thinking so just something small.

[versed garnet]

Lol I try to keep my names concise

[covert rose]

i want a text RPG MEDIVAL but with 2d OR 3d art included, do you know anyone who can done that?

[crimson totem]

it sucks right now becase i used a code bot for brainstorming and seeing what functions would be good for the game

there i had to find it in my files lol i forgot my snippits go to my documents

[versed garnet]

I’m essentially new to the whole industry so I couldn’t give any accurate info tbh

[versed garnet]

what’s the game about?

[crimson totem]

i have some questions do you know how i could move the gun to the side of him and make a blood partical effect when you click/shoot him maybe get an actual gun object instead of a moving png

[crimson totem]

it is a clicker game where you shoot kenny

a southpark character

[covert rose]

well im creating A complete free open source python based game engine and i aiming to make first game with my game engine and i love this kind "TEXT BASED RPG" but with a little art or assets added as well.

[crimson totem]

i dunno the copyright stuff so i aint gonna release it for awhile if at all unless i replace stuff

[crimson totem]

do you want to see the game from my screen

it is VERY buggy

[covert rose]

its so messy but it could have potential.

[versed garnet]

I made a hangman game using tkinter, in that i had to set the location of stuff so possibly in your code you change the margins it’s placed?

[crimson totem]

and 5000 lines i was wanting to see if it was possible to shorten the code and still have everything work the same

[crimson totem]

it is in tkinter

[versed garnet]

That’s interesting. I’m wanting to do something with my maze game that makes it more appealing and accessible in the future as I build on it, and someone mentioned a mobile game might be the way to go for it. Still work in progress, the code I shared is just baseline

[crimson totem]

also my one gripe with it so far is that the characters have white boxes with them becase the way they were added they are pngs

[covert rose]

DUDE WHAT ARE YOU DOING , this is only 4000 lines.💀 😂 (a complete open source game engine.)

[versed garnet]

I’m not even close to considering myself well versed so I will refrain from giving any advice lol

[crimson totem]

oh i thought it was too long and unessacary

ig i was wrong i had no idea how long the lines of code would be

[covert rose]

I love that, may i borrow your idea?

[crimson totem]

i wanna find people to work with too

i have a friend but he isnt serious about it

he wants to do it but not take the time to learn it

he is like that is too hard

[covert rose]

it is sometimes.

[crimson totem]

i cannot do it my guy you cannot do it unless you try

he does about 5 lines at a time before quiting

[covert rose]

what is your main idea?

[crimson totem]

make a funny clicker game

with about whatever comes to mind pretty much

i just aint creative what what i come up with

i got most of every idea from roblox

[versed garnet]

I def wanna get a few people together to do random projects with and eventually an actual game we can sell on steam for example. Right now I’m still in the basic learning stages before I decide to tackle that

[crimson totem]

yo hit me up we can work together

i can understand what code does pretty well just not writing it really

[covert rose]

i love clicker games too

[crimson totem]

he me up too

[crimson totem]

that is all the game is atm

i added a mining side area

a wip boss button that brings you to a crab boss from the show

and i have a terrible inventoy system i dunno if it is that bad though i just dont like it

i made it more interesting with pressing i for inventory

i got a game menu which is suppost to play the main southpark themesong but it broke during the development

i have settings in it save files and the play button for starting the game

[covert rose]

we want to creat a website too, a website like steam BUT with digital coins like tether and bitcoin to pay and sell games, im looking forward to populate front store.

[crimson totem]

like i said very buggy for example autosave plays a looping save noise

[covert rose]

you need to orgonize your work .

in order to progress.

[versed garnet]

I’d be down. Not quite yet since I wanna get my feet wet a little more first, see if I can determine what I’m best at/enjoy the most in the process

[versed garnet]

Just simple 2d game where you move the char around the screen dodging the enemies

[fathom gyro]

thats cool! can I be a tester?

Sure. Getting the mood set right now lol

[fathom gyro]

i tred then failed then stoped because I relized I was coding in C# and not python

[wooden night]

Which game engine uses python for its game dev lang?

I know unity is only for c# and only py extections but i don't know about others

[spring zealot]

I haven't been able to find one so pretty sure there isn't one

But

[spring zealot]

^

[covert rose]

Hi my game engine is pure python plus its open source and i will add many features as long as the end user did not get lost in the middle of thousand of tools.

[covert rose]

.

[slow copper]

Ursina

[covert rose]

ursina is on top of panda 3d and panda 3d is based on warping C++ inside python.

Its not really python based originally at the end.

[vagrant saddle]

not exactly Panda3D is a really cpython version dependant module and tightly integrated with cpython refcounting, it is not some C++ library slapped with cffi and average bindings

[vagrant saddle]

as a consequence you will not find easily other integration than cpython

same goes for pygame(-ce)

[wooden night]

Ya but its really like pygame but 3d

[slow copper]

its still a game engine but doesnt have your typical gui features you'd expect to have like in unity or godot, etc

[wooden night]

Agreed

[wooden night]

Thx... I will try it out!

[naive tendon]

Hey guys I am trying to import the image but for some strange reason it couldn't recognize the file despite having it in a same dicrectory.

[spring zealot]

try double slashes for the directory

c://projects//...

[naive tendon]

No luck

[crisp dagger]

yeah I had a same error just try open the file in command prompt

(sorry for ping)

[naive tendon]

Welcome to the can’t import image club.

[crisp dagger]

idk to fix this error try to pip command

or search on google

pip install image

[naive tendon]

Could potentially work for updating since I assumed that it must’ve been a bug in python. But I suggest useing a different python editor.

[crisp dagger]

idk

[slow copper]

You've put the wrong path

[slow copper]

It's "Galaxy warz/spaceship_yellow.png"

Idk from where you got the photos directory from that image

[slow copper]

Just a tip: whenever you face a bug it's 99.99% YOUR fault. Blaming the bug on the programming language is a HUGE take which is extremely rare to happen

[crimson totem]

anyone wanna team up

i am feeling dumb rn

bc i cannot figure out where to start with coding i watched so many videos and i still cannot figure out what i should type out first even though i know how the code works

[spring zealot]

Well what do you want to make

[crimson totem]

a clicker game

[spring zealot]

What module are you gonna use

[crimson totem]

i was using tkinter

[spring zealot]

For game dev I recommend pygame

[limber veldt]

For pygame, I recommend pygame-ce, the Community Edition

[spring zealot]

https://youtu.be/y9VG3Pztok8?si=BOmgfuAZdsQE1VmT this a good video on where to start it's what I used and you can also use the docs after https://www.pygame.org/docs/

[spring zealot]

What's pygame-ce do differently?

[limber veldt]

It has a couple of extra methods that are really handy, like get_frect() and both key and mouse get_just_pressed() among other updates

Fully backward compatible with the original pygame so old projects will work with it just fine

And it's made by much of the same people

[spring zealot]

Does it have subpixel rendering?

[limber veldt]

That I don't know

[spring zealot]

Floating point rect right?

[limber veldt]

Yes

This way position updates on the rect can be floats, and reading it returns floats

[spring zealot]

Yeah I just don't get why it needs that If there's no subpixel rendering

[limber veldt]

Makes it easier to do physics

[spring zealot]

I see, physics are pretty easy already might check it out still tho

[limber veldt]

Like your physics says some sprite needs to move some non-integer amount in some direction, say 2.5 pixels along the x axis, so you add that amount to the sprite.rect.centerx. Now if you check the position of the sprite with the old rect, it will have lost that .5, but with frect, it won't

[spring zealot]

Yeah but visually there's no difference and you can handle the physics either external floats and just round them into the rect after, same thing

I guess it's easier tho

[limber veldt]

Which is why without frect, one usually needed to keep a position attribute as a float and do all your physics on that then just update the rect where losing the float doesn't matter any more because the position is tracking it anyway

Yeah, it's not a huge change but it's a nice qol improvement, I use it for everything that moves

[spring zealot]

I'll check it out for sure just probably won't use it unless it adds some things I really need

[outer pier]

Hi everyone im looking for a place where I can find a developer for my project, is there any channel in this server where it is allowed?

[limber veldt]

The get_just_pressed() methods are pretty cool too. You can check for keys or buttons outside of the event loop

Regular pygame has get_pressed() which checks for held keys or buttons, get_just_pressed() checks any that were pressed during the current frame

[spring zealot]

Why would you need this tho?

[limber veldt]

More functionality, why not?

Informative read https://www.reddit.com/r/pygame/comments/18xy7nf/what_was_the_disagreement_that_led_to_pygamece/

[crimson totem]

[lone trellis]

Guys in PyGame when drawing a rect or a circle does it come with a collision?

[vagrant saddle]

when hosted in a sprite class, yes https://pyga.me/docs/ref/sprite.html#pygame.sprite.collide_rect

[lone trellis]

No I made it like this:
pygame.draw.rect()

[vagrant saddle]

then use https://pyga.me/docs/ref/rect.html#pygame.Rect.colliderect

[naive tendon]

Nice try buddy, I tried that a billion times with different variations of the code including yours and I still have the error. Yes I moved the images to the file for importing the image.

[limber veldt]

Should be just spaceship_yellow.png since your cwd is Galaxy wars and the png is in that folder

Or at least that's what the screenshot shows, I can't exactly know how you've changed things

[naive tendon]

readable?

[limber veldt]

Try removing "Galaxy wars", from the string, so it's just the image name, this screenshot doesn't show your cwd but I assume it's still Galaxy wars

[naive tendon]

IT WORKED!!

[limber veldt]

Like, if your current working directory is Galaxy wars, having that in the load is redundant and wrong

[naive tendon]

I see

Thanks man

[limber veldt]

That would be looking in Galaxy wars/Galaxy wars/spaceship_yellow.png too many Galaxy wars in the path

No problem

If unfamiliar with current working directory, this line shows it

[sullen gust]

Just posting here to help further my discussion in general

Any Tarkov players?

[spring zealot]

Ts ain't game development get out 😭🥀

[sullen gust]

What is Ts

[spring zealot]

This shit

[sullen gust]

Define Ts.

[sullen gust]

And no offense but you are gatekeeping a ball pit. Maybe graduate from pygame if your goal is trash talking lmao.

Here's my terrible game though, I did post in the wrong channel earlier so my bad on that. Its also C++ but you probably could make it in pygame. I'd rather be sharing stuff than talking shit because validation comes from users and dollars and jobs.

I was trying to build an engine for a falling sand simulator + some other stuff. Like more complicated simulations on a smaller scale in a snowglobe or a container. I REALLY wanted to try and revolutionize it to get these kinds of fluid dynamics in there, but I've been told its just not possible to get those more complicated simulations with live input working. But on a smaller, contained scale, I could maybe get it done.
Like this one.

This isn't mine just a sample from an italian guy.
Anyway I needed to try and produce some money so I have put it off for this tarkov tool.

Reason its not possible supposedly is because cellular automata you would normally rely on to keep operations low on a falling sand simulator, doesn't apply here. It uses D2 Q9 for flow simulation and https://docs.tclb.io/models/flow/d2q9/d2q9/ basically the direction is transferring between pixels, which is a lot more expensive than just checking your position, nearby pixels, and then moving (falling sand). Exponentially more operations per pixel and 10x+ the total memory. So I could maybe setup a jar with liquid and then have the overall system respond to changes in the jar, without complicating the simulation and making it bigger than 10-20 pixels wide. idk. Have to make money so I can "retire" and work it out.

Also could just make more boring particle simulation where particles dont interact, like a basic snowglobe, lights, etc...

The guys who made Noita put out a lot of content on the topic though so if anyone is interested you could check them out and he goes through in detail pretty well on their whole development process.

[spring zealot]

It says game development

Not game play

[spring zealot]

And not only is this not python it's not even good, so please. Don't get salty and think ur the shit.

[spring zealot]

And it isn't trash talk.. sorry I hit a nerve 🥀

[raven kernel]

wrong channel

[sullen gust]

Yes thank you, I've been hearing that. Apologies.

[sullen gust]

Yeah I had a bit of "who's on third" when reading your messages related to "this shit". Thought you were just calling it not game development AND garbage.

[sullen gust]

But yeah "not even good" was implied when I said you could make it in pygame 😂 The goal wasn't to make the best falling sand simulator. It was to make a falling sand simulator that incorporated fluid dynamics with up to millions of pixels or in a at least 1000x1000 pixel window. So C++ or Lua were the main options to build it to try and maximize efficiency. But as I said since then I've been disabused of the idea that it would be possible without some near genius mathetmatical breakthru.

[spring zealot]

i dont just use pygame and i dont just use python btw

[sullen gust]

Ok. I think even if you did that wouldn't really determine the quality of what you were making, and I wouldn't trash it outside of a miscommunication error on my part. My b

[vagrant saddle]

and there are still a bunch of newbies that don't realize python can be compiled or GPU accelerated

[spring zealot]

hardly miscomunication you crashed out because i said it wast game dev

[sullen gust]

No I thought Ts meant something else, and then when you said "this shit" I assumed you were just referring to my post, not explaining what "ts" referred to.

but definitely crashed out

[sullen gust]

I mean you can but why? Cython and Nuitka come to mind but they are like workarounds to getting to C. Are there better options?

[vagrant saddle]

pythran , codon , numba ....

[sullen gust]

I am not up to date on most things python, so I was more asking if they were using anything new to accomplish that. Off a quick google it looks like the main addition in the past decade has been GPU acceleration. I'm sure with that + the compiliation it's near the same level of performance but just seems like hassle compared to the existing tools that are already that fast.

Whats the draw in your opinion

I guess main reason would be staying connected to the python ecosystem, but that's always the answer I come to with using python. I wouldn't be using it on my app if it weren't for openCV.

Idk just seeing a lot of caveats the more I read about pythran and codom and numba

I got it fixed

[wooden night]

Should i make my game as a class or like a function?

In pygame

[robust egret]

you could import multiple stuff from a library using ,
(e.g from x import y,z) if it got out of hand you could also wrap them with () and separating in new lines like a tuple

[tired reef]

Well you're going to have to use classes depending on what you want for monster player etc you don't have to but it's easier it keeps it more contained

[wooden night]

I do use classes for entities but like the main peice of code?

Like:
class game:
Def init(self):
Self.screen = pygame.display.set_mode((200,200))

Def run(self):
     While true:
            ...

[limber veldt]

Really depends on the project for me

[wooden night]

Example?

[limber veldt]

I have some projects that use a Game class, simple little projects usually don't

Usually just experiments that don't get a Game class, actual games, I start with my own Game class template and go from there

[wooden night]

Ok

[limber veldt]

Like these bubbles https://paste.pythondiscord.com/QBKQ

Can some explain me Vector2 cause its confusing

[limber veldt]

A way to store coordinates and provides methods to do math with them

As for how to use them, that's a bit more complicated

Say I have object and I want to know how far/in what direction for it to move to get to a different position or coordinate, with vectors, we can get both of those, distance and direction

This playlist covers vectors well, not specifically pygame.Vector2, but in general https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjOdtSu4Lm4&list=PLImQaTpSAdsArRFFj8bIfqMk2X7Vlf3XF

I also like the Nature of Code series from youtube's Coding Train, not python but his white board explanations are excellent

[normal silo]

A "2D number." It has an x and a y. You can think of it as a point (x, y) or an arrow going from (0, 0) to (x, y).

[limber veldt]

I learned how to make games when I learned how to use vectors, pretty important concept

[wooden night]

Oh

[wooden night]

Definitly will check it out

Can someone explain decorators in simple terms?

I saw many examples but still didn't understand

[vagrant saddle]

it is just syntaxic sugar ```py

def decorator(fn):
def decore():
return f'decorated-{fn()}'
return decore

<3 @ syntax

@decorator
def fun():
return 'funk'

print( fun() )
del fun

but without @ syntax it is not pretty

def fun():
return 'funk'
vars()['fun'] = decorator(fun)

print( fun() )

[errant iron]

They are a pretty complex concept unless you’re from a certain programming background. You can think of them as ways to ‘modify’ or ‘wrap’ functions, by applying a new operation that gets called in place of the thing it decorates.

Where do I start when considering getting into game dev?

[errant iron]

Start by thinking what your goals are. Job in the industry? Making stuff for fun? Making stuff to potentially sell? Those questions tend to shape the technology you need to learn. Then the type of game you want to make and the technology you’re using helps to determine the skills you need to learn.

did you build that engine yourself because im just starting to build my own while importing my pixel edit software

does anyone have any tips for my game engine like how to import my previously made software and integrate it into building the users own characters?

[covert rose]

hi yes , it was a long long story , i have created many game engines not one , in fact 8 game engines with only 3 of them was successful including 2D engine as well.

[lofty moon]

Thats really cool im on my first game engine for2d games im not too experienced in python but im sitting at 4 months of experience but so far its pretty easy.

[covert rose]

good i create 28 softwares only in python that helping people creating 2D and 3D art for their games, i think we can help each other DM me.

hi

Even as an engine that completely created inside python it loads pretty complex models very fast and i am proud of it.Plus we have daily / weekly updates for both github And PyPi website keep fixing remaining Bugs and adding new features.

[shut kettle]

Who would like to join i am creating q game

Who would like to

[pliant latch]

if am honest it looks great

however im not sure how good itll be since u know there are some limitations

[covert rose]

sure it is, but limitations are JUST about optimizations, the engine file builds will grow large about 1-2 GB but instead they run fast and the main code is read-able because of python nature.If some one wants both (fast and not large files in final builds) they should change to RUST or C native , python is NOT the way.

[covert rose]

Im a developer tired of EMPTY PROMISES and the paid engines floating with bugs OR if they are bug less , they are very old OR hard enough in scripting to write thousand lines of code to simply move a single object, im aiming to create an engine and a community that everyone can create any fps games with ease.(even supporting third person out of box.)

this is a video that might be of help

[wooden night]

Thanks

[wooden night]

[cerulean nimbus]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qO6uX-jT6hc

maybe this can help i scanned through it and looks solid

you could also maybe get the logic explained in c++ or c# and try to translate it yourself to python since its an equation anyway

once you get the logic you should be able to apply it

[normal silo]

https://developer.nvidia.com/ray-tracing-gems-ii

In its most basic form it's very simple, easier than other rendering methods. The hard part is not having it be slow at scale.

(Just ray to X intersection testing (so you need some linear algebra for the camera and the intersection))

(If you are starting out with game development you will need to learn some of this math first)

[errant iron]

Be warned that it’s going to be terribly slow to do raytracing in Python.

[normal silo]

(At a high resolution, tiny window will work, it's quadratic scaling with size)

(Or to a tiny surface which is then stretched across the screen (low resolution, but not a tiny window))

[errant iron]

Sure, it’s not like it’s not possible to implement, just that you’re limited as to the number of pixels you can realistically render. I love Python but anyone strongly interested in rendering tech probably needs to consider a more performant environment.

[normal silo]

Yeah, that would be on the GPU. Which you can do without leaving Python if you really want to.

[errant iron]

Totally. But then you’re having to learn shaders alongside Python. Personally I’d approach this by doing it on the CPU in C++. Easier to learn when there’s only one language in the mix. Just an opinion though.

[normal silo]

Or just use Taichi.

[errant iron]

That’s new to me. Could be interesting to a new learner, certainly.

[normal silo]

There are a lot of Python libraries out there to do things a lot faster without leaving Python, since Python itself comes with a parser for itself.

And now has type hints which can be used to actually statically type stuff too by these libs.

Needing to leave Python is rather rare for most people's cases.

(Before even going to Taichi, simply using Numpy will get you a decently small resolution, ray tracing is simple but just wants a lot of number crunching compute and is really easy to parallelize making stuff like Numpy, Taichi, etc work really well)

[errant iron]

I guess it depends on what you mean by 'most people'. For most realtime raytracing needs you're going to want maximum performance throughout and Python isn't going to cut it, no matter what you do.
It's different for ML where Python just sets up the batches; it works well there.

[normal silo]

I am going based on what projects are being made. It's very rare to have a project that tries to get maximum ray tracing performance. In which case things get really complicated by probably only being able to target specific Nvidia GPUs with hardware support and all that. Something like Taichi will match and in many cases outperform doing it "by hand" (unless a lot of care is taken by the writer) (due to its memory layout optimizing features).

I can only think of one game engine that even tries to do this to max performance and do only raytracing for all the visuals. The rest are often not really game engines, more meant for film.

[errant iron]

I mean, all game engines are going to try and maximise performance where possible. They're not going to be using Python in their graphics code.

[normal silo]

They don't really, they usually have some set of hardware they target and they need to kind of fit that as best as they can. Then they often are spending their time on other things, it's not super high priority. They are not using Python in their graphics code, yes, but they could...

Not saying it's even the ideal language for this / a good idea, but it's not really the problem.

If you already know shader languages and have an engine setup to do all the plumbing work and such, you can just use that, no need to try to make Python work.

Python won't make that significantly better (probably a bit worse (shaders languages are designed for the problem)).

But at the same time, if you use something like Taichi, it won't really be holding you back.

[errant iron]

Whether it holds you back depends on what you are trying to achieve, which is what I said before. I've been using Python in games for almost 20 years now. It's rarely the right tool for the job. That's no criticism of Taichi - it might be great for other applications.

[normal silo]

Python mostly fails as the right tool for the job for games due to CPU performance, not really rendering though since that is its own separate thing that just needs the CPU side to invoke it. There is some CPU side stuff for the graphics, like if you are building acceleration structures CPU side, but Taichi solves that part too.

The other big issue is just distribution.

(Other than other debatable issues about the languages itself, like dynamic typing at scale)

(This is also assuming CPython)

[errant iron]

As I said twice already 😄 it depends on what you are doing.
If you are doing real time rendering then you need to be servicing the GPU 60 or more times per second. That's CPU intensive and you can't get out of that. Doesn't matter how many threads you have or how much parallelism you can use. It's hard enough to do it well in C# which in theory is more performant than Python.

If you're doing batch rendering though, e.g. for film CGI or whatever, then sure! Python isn't going to hold you back at all and will likely speed up your workflow.

[normal silo]

Right, the context here was that someone was asking about raytracing in Python. And so I was considering that they can do that, and stay in Python for a really long time (if they want to).

[wooden night]

I just realized I need help with RAYCASTING not ratracing

[spring zealot]

In pygame, just create a 1x1 rect object and use that as a ray

[wooden night]

Not a line?

[spring zealot]

A line?

You create an object, send it in a direction then retrieve data you need

Distance colour ect

[wooden night]

I finished it this morning!

It has joysticks too for mobile

@spring zealot its running avg of 60-80 fps (when i put the tick at 120)

[wooden night]

Did anyone created dual mobile sticks class?

I would really appreciate it

[cerulean nimbus]

60-80 is pretty good but if you need some optimasations take a look at https://glyph.twistedmatrix.com/2022/02/a-better-pygame-mainloop.html

[wooden night]

Thx, I'll check it out

[normal silo]

So basically two ways. The first method is that you basically have a vector pointing in some direction that you want to go and you keep adding to it one step at a time to walk in that direction. At each iteration you check if your current vector (position) is inside something / passed something. If it is you can back out to the previous position and try to find exactly where you crossed into the object between those two points. You can do this in multiple ways. One is to start taking even smaller steps, and then back out and even smaller, and repeat until some stopping condition. The second is basically binary search, where you choose the mid point, see if it's inside (like binary search in an array). For the iterative method there are also many things you can do to improve the performance where you take extra knowledge about how the scene is structured into account (that lets you skip a ton of empty space quickly). The second method is when you have nice simple shapes that you are checking intersection with that let you have a non-iterative solution. For example if you are checking against a simple axis-aligned bounding box you can do line to box intersection math simply (using algebra to solve for when they intersect). If all your things you can intersect with are simple shapes like circles, rectangles, line segments, then consider the second method. I will give an example of ray to line segment. https://www.desmos.com/calculator/33gvuytldh

[wooden night]

I think i used the second method

[errant iron]

What are you doing the raycasts for?

[wooden night]

To create a 3d type game

I do need help with displaying textures at walls which doesn't contains horizontal lines

[spring zealot]

I don't know what ur making ngl gng 😭🙏

[wooden night]

Just a raycast

It works at 60-80fps with goodamount of rays and if i add better horizen it goes to 20-30fpd

[wooden night]

Better horizen is a setting(or a var) that i made

[covert rose]

so it said ray tracing is possible?

Even on raw opengl in python?

[normal silo]

You would be using Python to dispatch a shader (program that runs on the GPU) to do the tracing.

That shader in this case would probably be written in GLSL.

[covert rose]

hmm i see, can we render the final result without loosing quality inside customtkinter window?

[normal silo]

The quality would be unaffected.

All you need is an OpenGL context for that window.

[covert rose]

good, im currently working adding blue print scripting language to my game engine, before this i tried so hard to add ray tracing but i failed, my game engine main progress is above 80%.

[covert rose]

i think we need your help or someone expert enough to solve the problem, when i try add ray tracing everything goes blank.

[cerulean nimbus]

can you be more specific with "adding" and it going blank

[covert rose]

it will set to the average color of the scene, our engine is open source and had a pip also.

https://github.com/lolgg313/HPE
pip install hpe

[wooden night]

Is openGL better in performance than pygame?

[normal silo]

They are not mutually exclusive. OpenGL is a graphics API for GPUs. Pygame (last time I checked) renders via CPU, which is much slower than the GPU (which is made for graphics). But for 2D games this CPU rendering is often fast enough, CPUs are really fast, especially modern ones. But you can also tell Pygame to give you an OpenGL context (since Pygame is a wrapper around SDL (now with a bunch of extra stuff)).

[wooden night]

Wait so if i make my raycast in opengl it will run faster?

Btw my raycast is running at 110+ fps

[normal silo]

If you are casting many rays in parallel, for graphics, then yes.

[wooden night]

What do u mean by parallel

[normal silo]

The results of one ray does not depend on another, they can all run at the same time.

Parallel is when you physically have multiple programs running at the same time.

[wooden night]

Oh ok

[normal silo]

CPUs and GPUs have multiple cores, which can run things at the same time.

The GPU has a ton of these very tiny simple cores, so it's designed for massively parallel tasks, where each task is simple.

(And it was designed exactly for this kind of problem (like raytracing))

(In fact new GPUs have specific hardware support for just raytracing)

[wooden night]

Is raytracing even possible in pygame/opengl

[normal silo]

Yes.

If you using any other game engine/library that uses OpenGL (or other graphics API), it's going to be doing the same things, just different styles basically, but they all go through a graphics API to tell the GPU what work to do.

[normal silo]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8YtdC8mxTU

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOlehM5kNSk

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9Z4oGN89MU

Basically whether you choose to use Pygame/Python or C++/Unreal, their job is pass data (and code) to the GPU and it does the heavy lifting.

[wooden night]

I did watch how to create raytace in unity

[normal silo]

If you have OpenGL setup (like Pygame gave you a window with an OpenGL context), you are all set, anything visual (any graphics), you can do, no different from any massive game engine. It's just more work, the game engines have a lot of stuff done for you. If you use OpenGL raw you will be making graphics from scratch (not really, it's still high level, but relative to game engines), but since you are asking about raytracing I am going to assume this is what you want anyhow.

[wooden night]

How do i incoporate in pygame?

I am not that smart to create a raytracing but a raycast should be good

[normal silo]

A lot of resources on that online, it's a common thing to do: https://stackabuse.com/advanced-opengl-in-python-with-pygame-and-pyopengl/

This tutorial gets you a simple spinning cube, with regular rasterized graphics (not raytracing).

[wooden night]

Sure i'll check it out

[normal silo]

Hmm, actually I don't really like that one, it's using ancient OpenGL. Let me see if I can find another.

OpenGL has multiple versions, go for version 3 or above if you are looking for resources.

(Or at least 2.1)

[uncut birch]

i made this while in an airplane 😮

[wooden night]

Is .. is that roblox

[uncut birch]

roblox but cooler

[wooden night]

What did u used?

[uncut birch]

panda3d

[wooden night]

Oh

Ok

[normal silo]

I found this and seems like a good option, here a library called "moderngl" is being used in addition to Pygame, it's making the OpenGL context for the window too, it's a convenience wrapper on top of OpenGL to make it a bit more pythonic to work with: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFbePt8i0DI

You will need another resource on learning OpenGL itself though.

Most of those will not be using Python (probably C++), but if you know Python well you should be able to follow along (they don't use complex C++ features).

https://learnopengl.com/

I don't have resources on hand, I learn by just reading the documentation of whatever i'm interested in (or its source code) or books. Maybe someone else can give you resources that they used.

So I don't know how good these resources actually are. But I do know that DaFluffyPotato is experienced in this and sometimes shows up in this chat too.

[livid harbor]

who wanna play boxlofe49.minehut.gg with me?

[wooden night]

I learned python like that

[wooden night]

What do u mean by not using python?

[normal silo]

Most game engines have been made in C++, so the resources for things like graphics programming tends to use C++.

(Or C)

[wooden night]

So i will right the code in python but the itegeration is on cpp

[normal silo]

Both your Python code and the C++ code play the role of passing data to/from OpenGL here. This can be any language.

Calling OpenGL functions and such.

So when you read some resources that are about OpenGL but using C++, you can kind of just translate that directly to Python (with something like PyOpenGL or ModernGL).

[wooden night]

Ohhhh. Ok

[normal silo]

The beginning of such resources usually have a part where they open the window, get input/output, a main game loop, get the opengl context (basic setup). In your case that is done with Pygame and you can reference that video I linked (or find another reference).

These resources just need to choose some language (to do anything), and so they go with the most common one for game engine development.

But the focus is really about OpenGL (and graphics programming in general (OpenGL is one of many options too)), not the chosen language to interact with OpenGL. Nor the library used to get the window, main game loop, input/output, setup stuff.

hey guys very quickly, I have made a small RPG in python and want to package the entire project as an .exe? how do I go about doing this? do i need to use pyinstaller? (this is a repost from another channel because idk if it is more relevant here)

[wooden night]

Yes and mostly no

It's made for 2d games but tricks like raycasting(which i am working on) or using math to create points on the 2d screen can help you create 3d but you have to really pay attention of performance

[wooden night]

But if you want to create a 3d game you can use ursina or panda3d which uses cpp to get amazing performance and 3d

[wooden night]

Btw you are writing the code in python

[shut tulip]

Pyinstaller or nuitka

[ebon kelp]

so i need ursina right?

tbh i dont think its so easy to do yes ive seen games that use it but mostly just to do some calculative text or to connect to a db never really saw it get used in the full scope

[cerulean nimbus]

pygame is not fully optimized for mobile i think lemme check

you could take a look at pgs4a its outdated tho, also you would need to parse Touch input (swipes, taps, pinches) to desktop values that pygame uses

[bold tide]

No pgs4a or buildozer required, use anvpy

[cerulean nimbus]

oh that is a new one

[bold tide]

Install pygame-ce ... its just better

[wooden night]

I did add mobile support to my 3d raycaster... i just made a rezise func to resize all the elements on the screen and added a simple mobile joystick

I think the main issues can be making it an .apk or whatever IOS uses

[spring zealot]

i dont think you can because i tried but to be honest im quite shit with turtle

either way pygame is a much better module for this

[cerulean nimbus]

you can its just complex objects are a struggle

[cerulean nimbus]

that is true

[spring zealot]

ive found it way too slow, i started my 3d renderer on turtle and it was janky and slow still not sure if thats just my code tho

[cerulean nimbus]

it can be decent till a certain point

[normal silo]

You can, if you are ok with making an old school low poly 3D game with no textures (solid color triangles).

Not that this is a good idea unless it's for learning or as a challenge.

What is a voxel engine?

[ruby shadow]

tysm!!

Voxels are 3D pixels (volumetric + element (pixel = picture + element)). So just like a 2D image, you have a grid of them, and they each hold a value (or multiple values).

A voxel engine refers to a game engine that revolves around voxels as one of the core mechanics for rendering data (and gameplay).

So u can make a game of minecraft using it

[normal silo]

Minecraft's engine would count as voxel engine, yes.

Its primary feature is having large voxels on purpose to give a blocky feel and editable terrain that feels a bit like legos in terms of large blocks.

However voxels need not be large, nor must the entire game be made of them, they are used for many things.

For example, the smoke in counter strike 2 is using voxels. It may not look like it, but the voxels are there and count as either holding smoke or no smoke in that volume.

Small voxel example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1R5WFZk86kE

(This uses something called a sparse voxel octree, it's more complex than a simple grid like with Minecraft)

[normal silo]

You would use OpenGL to render the voxels (to render everything in the game). In Minecraft's case this involves looping over all the voxels and generating a cube mesh (the model) for each voxel (not including the sides the player can never see because they are facing inside the chunk).

The cube's texture is determined by the block type (stored in the voxel).

When a player edits the world, they change the data in the voxels. The mesh is then regenerated for the chunk.

This is why the world is split into chunks, so you don't need to regenerate the entire world for every block edit (and also so you can load/save it in parts).

@normal silo do i need to use pygame to work with opengl or i could use it independly

[cerulean nimbus]

you can use it without pygame is just used for the interacting with keyboard and windows creation

[normal silo]

OpenGL is a graphics API. If you want you can manually make your own window with an OpenGL context and get input and do audio by interacting directly with the operating system. Pygame just is a layer above that (it's using SDL2 which does this stuff). Doing it yourself at least once is not a bad idea for learning how the operating system works and such. But usually this is just tedious work that someone has done for you (stuff like SDL) and for each operating system.

[daring heath]

Hello everyone, which game engine do u guys use for game development. I started with Pygame.

[wooden night]

I usually use pygame but I am thinking towards using morderngl as well for better performance

[shut tulip]

Depends on your use case. For very simple game, pygame works well. For things more complex, you can even go with Godot

[valid moon]

does anyone have ida pro by chance?

my friend i used to work with passed away and I was mooching off of the mf
working on another project he would have loved to have seen done and I would like to get it done in a timely manner
I am really just looking for an iv for a save in an exe. I don't have the entire game only the exe maybe some guidance with the free version of ida?
Rest of the process is visible due to openssl/bcrypt but I am having a hard time finding the nonce itself

[rotund wagon]

k

[spring zealot]

It's an interpreted programming language

[rotund wagon]

?

[spring zealot]

U said explain it

[rotund wagon]

oh

[spring zealot]

Unless you wanted me to paste the python docs here

[rotund wagon]

um no

plz no

[spring zealot]

It was a joke

[rotund wagon]

guss what game?

geuss*

[spring zealot]

What is going on

What

😭

[rotund wagon]

what?

[spring zealot]

Rock = 1

Paper = 2

[rotund wagon]

ya

[spring zealot]

Scissors = 3

[rotund wagon]

and

[stoic ravine]

Made this in class

[spring zealot]

Why?

[spring zealot]

Why are there 3 integers for r p and s all just incrementing 1 from 1

[rotund wagon]

ok then oyu tell me what to do then

[spring zealot]

I don't get it

[rotund wagon]

YOU*

[spring zealot]

No I'm just wondering what ur trying to do

I'm perplexed

[stoic ravine]

That looks confusing tbh

[rotund wagon]

gimmi a sec

[spring zealot]

That's what I'm saying

What are the numbers even for 😭

[rotund wagon]

is that better

[stoic ravine]

OkY

Import random first off

That’s the most important thing in this game

[rotund wagon]

?

[spring zealot]

Random is a module that let's you get random number ie a number to determine the computers choice in the game
