[covert canopy]

Will this be a sin or a contribution to the scifi community

FOR context

qserf has 2 reactors (technically 7 but only 2 work like actual reactors)

i'm willing to go all out and add 7 WORKING ones

only experimental may not be implemented

i'll try to get some work done tho

[covert canopy]

science rug

Door (i love doors)

different design for an alarm

[misty grotto]

The glass

[covert canopy]

kind of an old model so i might change it tbh

[lucid summit]

oh my gosh I love this rug

great job

[covert canopy]

its unironically pretty simple

just yk

union circles, hollow them out

rotate them

add one at center

?

qsml 1 or 2?

qsml v2 could mean alot of things

oh the one with the ball reactor?

i might give a shot at the reactor but not much since i have this to work on

let me see

yeah i could 100% get that done

will get to work tmr or something since right now i'm probably going to go to sleep soon

since i don't want to over caffeinate tmr

well not that

just feel like shit for the whole day since i don't really drink coffee that often

[covert canopy]

anyone got some heavy door sounds for this guy?

no longer hinge btw it slides

[dusk patrol]

How long did that reactor take to build?

[golden pagoda]

yo do you still want this

[covert canopy]

i don't have the model anymore

[covert canopy]

not long, like an hour and a half

[dusk patrol]

You used blender?

[covert canopy]

no

only unions

[dusk patrol]

I don't understand unions or how they work.

Don't unions just turn 2 parts into a model?

[covert canopy]

yes

and negate + intersect

[covert canopy]

well an union

which is basically an union of 2 parts or more

[golden pagoda]

Guess who does

[covert canopy]

finished and added pbr

[golden pagoda]

@covert canopy so do you want the file or not lol

[covert canopy]

no

[golden pagoda]

ok

[covert canopy]

destroyed NBU

realistically due to overpressure

[cosmic hawk]

GOD

THAT LOOKS

AMAZING

[tired ginkgo]

wow

amaze

I wanna see more pbr dark matter reactors

[tired ginkgo]

you should add some little glowing blue particles coming out

[swift jasper]

ooh, that is some good destruction model right there 👍

[tired ginkgo]

by the way how did you make that thing

the insulated one

[gentle sinew]

he uses unions for everything but i would assume he got a squished mesh or a cylinder and used archimedies

[tired ginkgo]

you don't have to use a mesh to squish a sphere... all you have to do is union the sphere first

[gentle sinew]

or that

[covert canopy]

nope

[covert canopy]

specialmesh (which i use) also works

[covert canopy]

replaced fire with some sort of that Chernobyl ionized air beam looking thing

[acoustic carbon]

Why does that remind me of Laser Ice Energy Cream Reactor 💀

also cool models

[violet yew]

Dang, lookin nice

[maiden rover]

i wonder how the wireframe looks

[plain sedge]

solid wireframe

[maiden rover]

💀

[main frost]

this shit is amazing bro

more sneakpeaks when

[covert canopy]

when i get to work on it again

prob tmr

[tired ginkgo]

what is tmr

[swift jasper]

tomorrow lol

[tired ginkgo]

ok

I thought it was form of reactor

im dumb

tommorow matter reactor

[covert canopy]

turd matter reactor

[covert canopy]

Oh my God Guys! Lore!

[maiden rover]

YOO

Why are u sharing it

its restricted

[covert canopy]

True that

[maiden rover]

shame on u

fbi is on u

[covert canopy]

its a company file

[maiden rover]

still

its

restricted

!!!!!!!

[covert canopy]

Die

[maiden rover]

;-;

[covert canopy]

elevator, HEAVILY inspired by QSERF

[maiden rover]

uuu

i liek

[covert canopy]

CHERENKOV!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fast granite]

ngl too much yellow

in this instance I'd break up the yellow bits with either the same colour as the top or a darker grey strip, and then instead of having carpet up to the edge of the hallways

I would make a spacing of concrete or a different color carpet

helps break it up and make it less.... bland?

[covert canopy]

ig i'll add offices and furniture later

[red zealot]

I mean, there are many elevator that looks like that.

[maiden rover]

howd u do that?

i wanna do that too

[covert canopy]

particle + light

[covert canopy]

YOUR CPU Data Storage Unit vs MY CPU Data Storage Unit

[quasi shore]

make it blast caramelldansen

[cosmic hawk]

my exact mindset:

[covert canopy]

new room

[covert canopy]

citadel blasting caramelldansen

[uneven fox]

y the floor textur the same as the ceiling textr

[covert canopy]

it aint

it differen...

like fr

[uneven fox]

they look the same at least

color is off imo but still!!!!!

[covert canopy]

may remake the pfr

i finally used blender.. for once

ONLY for one piece though

will probably require a whole rehaul of the current game (atleast the CC) just out of sheer scale

[covert canopy]

hm

[swift jasper]

oooh

gah damn, trusses are awesome

[covert canopy]

1775 parts

[swift jasper]

whatever you do, do not give someone f3x ☠️

[swift jasper]

heeck yeah, loving those thing curving inwards

impressive work

[covert canopy]

dmr01 ish magnetic stabilizers

ALTHOUGH...

can i state my intentions ith these..

[swift jasper]

si

[covert canopy]

i want to zap the LIVING SHIT out of the reactor during startup..

WHY?

i don't know

[swift jasper]

moment

[covert canopy]

I totally have not been looking CAREFULLY at https://discord.com/channels/346444423271415819/1139968775450538024 and Alien: Isolation videos

and yes

it is a geosphere, and the only thing i used blender with

the sphere in question

[swift jasper]

eyyyy

[covert canopy]

i loved it so much i did it aswell

as they say

if you cant beat them

join them

although i will NOT be giving up on unions anytime soon

[gentle sinew]

how did you do that flat frame?

I usually just use wireframe modifier, and it doesn't look that good

(and smooth)

[swift jasper]

isosphere (idk what u call em) gang ✊

[covert canopy]

Oh god what is that

it looks really nice tho

gj

basically

i took gm's concept and ran away with it

[covert canopy]

YOOO

I LOVE THAT CAUTION TAPE..

WILL ADD...

[swift jasper]

YES!!!!! ADD

[swift jasper]

a uhh, superstructure for a game of mine that is not in development anymore (idk ☠️ )

uranium fission reactor, thats all

[covert canopy]

CAUTION TAPE FTW!!!!!!!!!

EVEN IF UNNECESSARY!!!!!

[covert canopy]

so basically

bombard uranium with neutrons until it does uranium things?

[swift jasper]

idk how it exactly work

all i know it swoosh some uranium fillament in some liquid

not so sciency but hey cool stuff

idek lol i just focused the model

[covert canopy]

WHO ACTUALLY CARES ABOUT SCIENCE!!! IF ITS COOL ITS COOL!!!!!!!!

[uneven fox]

aqueous homogenous reactor/molten salt reactor?????????????

you could use the AHR's high neutron flux as the cause of the instability

[covert canopy]

might revive some of my old quirks

like Big Heatsink Above Reactor™️

[covert canopy]

..huh

[plain sedge]

i'd make the text more transparent so it looks faded

thats fire tho

[covert canopy]

another thing

i did the QSERF control nodes

but actually well done

[plain sedge]

you should bend the pins

[swift jasper]

everyone i see here is talented lol, we are all talented in different levels

[swift jasper]

also not bad not bad, maybe mess around with the caution tape transparency to blend in with the metals?

[covert canopy]

Oh god...

[covert canopy]

made it darker since its a material

[swift jasper]

ohh alr

[red zealot]

Same size or bigger? The PFR 01 gives a impession that feels bigger

[covert canopy]

bigger

FAR FAR bigger

[red zealot]

Oh yes

What about the chains?

Discontinued?

[covert canopy]

yeah didnt really like them

[red zealot]

And the "mini" one got totaly discontinued?

[covert canopy]

yeah likely

[red zealot]

Maybe you could transform it into those images like the ones about the DMR project like in the high personal offices, and put like PFR prototype desing.

[vagrant shadow]

Could you put a dummy next to the big one for scale lmao

[vagrant shadow]

Oh

😭

Didn't expect it to be that small lmao

[maiden rover]

AY, thats pretty average!!!!111!!!

Why are u insulting the PFR

Why u doing that ;-;

[vagrant shadow]

I'm not insulting it I just thought it was larger

[red zealot]

So uhm, whats with the metal "casing"? Faraday Cage?

[covert canopy]

maybe

learned how to degrade images

will ofc choose better font

this one looks out of place

[tired ginkgo]

how did you make it look degraded

[golden pagoda]

Gimp

Atleast for me, use a pattern with the eraser

[covert canopy]

Same

Use the chalk brushes

[maiden rover]

i was joking ...

[maiden rover]

how

just how

[vagrant shadow]

You get the damaged effect with using an erase tool

[covert canopy]

use the erase tool and chalk brushes

[covert canopy]

game will be shifting to 2000's, i have having to remake all my props

anyway this looks kinda nice

[covert canopy]

made pivots in such a way that i can position TV's however i want

[maiden rover]

nice

[uneven fox]

damn that some heavy duty shit for a flat screen monitor ngl

[covert canopy]

fasten securely to wall

[velvet mirage]

Wait

Why is gmhs not in the server anymore

[covert canopy]

The Door™️

it is uh

NINETY TWO

studs long

[covert canopy]

i forgot to swap the CFrame for the lower door and it just spun into where the upper one is supposed to be

hilarious

the reactor burning in the background

[covert canopy]

with the diff setting for the game i REALLY want to switch the reactor now

will model some candidates

might host a vote or something

might also not, idk

[maiden rover]

k

[covert canopy]

and i'm definitely going to redo the power lasers

they look hella out of place

[maiden rover]

Okay

good luck!

[cyan hare]

this stuff looks cool

[covert canopy]

CAVERNS! CAVERNS! AHHH!

oh YEAH

um

[gentle sinew]

jesus that looks good

[misty grotto]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/945394424047882250/1155156336166846578/image.png?ex=65465c2c&is=6533e72c&hm=96c2217fcbba96dafff5b7da7d010207233aa027f62a4aecd6af38034ecdb00b&

Make it like this

[wooden juniper]

oh man I love the structural trusses surrounding the intakes

that looks so interesting

[covert canopy]

new LASER EFFECTS!

YEAH!

[cosmic hawk]

Question

[covert canopy]

Speak

[cosmic hawk]

How does it hold itself

[covert canopy]

For now

With the power of the uhhh

"Anchor" property

Its complex science i know

Very advanced

[cosmic hawk]

very very advance

Fr tho it actually looks so good keep going!!!

[covert canopy]

Bloom really helps with lasers ong

[vagrant shadow]

How do you even do stuff like that

Like damn

[maiden rover]

YOOO

Where did the top of the core go

[covert canopy]

it got

[covert canopy]

1984'd

performed a tactical 1984 on it

[maiden rover]

😭 😭

[covert canopy]

True

Oh wait yeah i'm poor

i can't do that

[maiden rover]

i did it for the gang

[covert canopy]

building the core chamber rn

[covert canopy]

absolute legend

[maiden rover]

ikr

[maiden rover]

looking good so far!

[covert canopy]

added lots of cables because why not

also i require ideas on how to suspend the core kthx

[maiden rover]

xD

[covert canopy]

it NEEDS to be midair

[maiden rover]

wdym

[covert canopy]

like

how do i hold it in place

chains?

[maiden rover]

i use cables

u could use that too

its very shrimple

[covert sun]

hydraulics?

chains

[misty grotto]

just atch it to a pole

simply

[covert canopy]

Already used

Bored of it

Its

Eherm

MID

[misty grotto]

damn

[covert canopy]

NSMRS

[covert canopy]

time to return to the old ig

Might also improve the ball's shape

Make it more smoothed

[covert sun]

eh i think the pole would look better

[plain sedge]

attach it using a ton of pipes

[fair jungle]

when was the name of this project changed?

[covert canopy]

wdym

[covert canopy]

?

[fair jungle]

I remember it said something like cardboard

[covert canopy]

reactor aisle walmart

this is genuinely how it started 2-3 years ago

[covert canopy]

this is how its going

[covert canopy]

Tbh for 3 years ago it looks genuinely pretty good

[covert sun]

damn

[swift jasper]

a glow up is truely a thing

similar thing for mine, went from a simple style to full on industrialism lol

awesome progression of development man :)

[covert canopy]

core chamber progress

[misty grotto]

look like glados chamber

[covert canopy]

true

i honestly don't really like how it turned out

think it could've been better

[covert canopy]

nOoOo i am remodelling the reactor again

i hate myself

[maiden rover]

bro i literally remodel my core every 2 weeks so its fine xD

[covert canopy]

lesson learned: make big cores not small ones

so that i can make people with megalophobia have a heart attack

[red zealot]

Intruder countermesures, noice

[covert canopy]

GUYS how many lasers should the new core have....
6 (default)
8 (uh)
10 (overkill)

[red zealot]

You gotta enforce the protection with megalophobia. Thats why i voted overkill lol

[covert canopy]

10 might be too much tbh

idk tho

[red zealot]

Bruh you gave me option

[covert canopy]

1984

Ong with the current design it might look a LITTLE too much

like CSAGC

[covert sun]

show the wireframe

:3

[covert canopy]

Its only 305 parts

Surprisingly

And counting

[red zealot]

It extremely looks like the soviet rocket that was supposed to go to the moon (i forgot the name)

[covert canopy]

n1

literal nuke

[red zealot]

thanks

[red zealot]

lol

[covert canopy]

it exploded twice on the launchpad and almost wiped out baikonur 💀

If you think about it

Rockets are a good thing to look at while making reactors

Also

anyone has the id for the old QSERF calibration sound?

[oak forge]

i love hazard stripes!!!!

[oak forge]

also love how tiny it is compare to the chamer

[covert canopy]

its getting replaced lmao

[runic shuttle]

god damn

[covert canopy]

its actually massive now

[runic shuttle]

bigger is better

[covert canopy]

True

r6 for scale

[oak forge]

bring back the hazard stripes

[covert canopy]

this one will have genuine interior

[runic shuttle]

🎉

[covert sun]

🎉

[maiden rover]

do 10

do 10 lasers

i dare u

do it

i know you wanna do it

[vagrant shadow]

Before I finalized my reactor I made like 3 or 4 versions

[maiden rover]

same

[red zealot]

I see people really like this portal poster

[covert canopy]

Indeed

[covert canopy]

Bro stop being the voices 💀

They are already loud enough

[lucid summit]

https://tenor.com/view/incredibles-rage-robot-anger-cruncha-gif-20148614

looks a bit like the omni droid from The Incredibles

[covert canopy]

lol

[maiden rover]

the missle knows where it is at all time...

[red zealot]

Oh hey, look, a civilian airliner.

[acoustic carbon]

Pilot, fire me at it

[covert canopy]

will begin work on startup, most of the tweening is done

[oak forge]

🤑

[red zealot]

Btw, no more isosphere icosphere idk what to call it core?

[covert canopy]

Yea pretty much

[red zealot]

Why not?

[covert canopy]

wanted more freedom on reactor design ig

[red zealot]

I see

What's the middle thingy btw?

[covert canopy]

Same stuff on the icosphere reactor

Similar to the magnetic stabs on the older dmr

[tired ginkgo]

hey @covert canopy can I steal your "big heatsink above the reactor" idea

[covert canopy]

sure

[misty karma]

respectfully the original image posted to this looks like dmr with longer reciever arms

[covert canopy]

i mean what doens't look like a dmr that is

• a ball
• has receivers
• yeah

[maiden rover]

• exists

[swift jasper]

• is grey (idk)

either way, the cor is special 👍 cant wait to see more

[maiden rover]

agreed

[grave herald]

that reactors kinda hot tho

[tired ginkgo]

he's made like 20 redesigns of the tnri reactor

[covert sun]

tnri?

oh

OH

THIS PLACE IS TNRI

i tought it was nsrc

[torpid wraith]

This is an AMAZING reactor design!

[gentle sinew]

i could not resist

THAT REACTOR DESIGN IS AWESOME

inspires me so much

[gentle sinew]

i love how vast this is

is it a team working on it or just you?

[covert canopy]

just me

• thats outdated btw

[gentle sinew]

another fellow solo developer!

[covert canopy]

PROPS!!!!!!!!!

did some more work on the ro transition cavern

and yeah i fixed that open spot incase anyone is wondering

i saw that just now

might make offices now

[covert canopy]

lovely curve

[covert sun]

woa

that reminds me of an old build i make lmao

same wall colour too

[red zealot]

Looks like scp ngl

Looks awesome too.

[covert canopy]

true

entrance zone vibes

[covert canopy]

even though i pushed the game to sorta 2004 the game still looks 80's-ish

these exist though

[covert canopy]

exactly

[covert canopy]

scp ahh hallway

[maiden rover]

sexy

[red zealot]

Maybe vents or pipes?

It looks empty.

[uneven fox]

scp real

[covert canopy]

UNRELATED but uhh plasma railgun thing

Half life aesthetic 🧡

[swift jasper]

fuck yeeeeah, shit looks good

👍

[oak forge]

looks sick but im not a big fan of the wood furniture

[red zealot]

Gamepass weapons

Thats the only thing i can imagine out of it.

[covert canopy]

Could become the R.O Reception

Would be a shame if something entered a catastrophic meltdown just 200m below it

[rancid moss]

that vfx looking 🔥

[covert canopy]

Sir what vfx

What

That is a normal screenshot

What

[rancid moss]

no like

the particles

[covert canopy]

Particles sir

What particles

[covert canopy]

Oh ok

[covert canopy]

Hidden detail the lightning beams actually arc

The ones on the gun itself

[rancid moss]

yea

[sudden pike]

If it explodes

[covert canopy]

School finally ended

Expect more work to be done

[covert canopy]

Coppers.. Boooring..................

[red zealot]

Nice

[covert canopy]

Dont worry.. We getting security humvee (SOMEDAY)

[red zealot]

It reminds me of black mesa

[covert canopy]

i played a little too much bms

[red zealot]

Maybe adding a bigger line here?

[covert canopy]

idk

for now i'm satisfied might change later

[red zealot]

Alr.

[spark vapor]

mother??

wow

i am in love with the shine

the lighting effects are gorgeous im in love

the blooom too

[red zealot]

Back to the chains I see.

I can't stop thinking of the PL receiving arms detach and the core falling.

Although the beams are incredible.

[stoic elk]

Gustav stop taking the basement pills

You worked enough on this

I sure as hell am forcing you to make the DMR in the Minecraft server broski...

Its joever... @covert canopy

[covert canopy]

working on a basic temperature system rn

[covert canopy]

CRAAAAAAAAANE

[maiden rover]

NIICEE

[red zealot]

Splendid!
lol once I tried to make a crane, and failed miserably....

[covert sun]

i made an crane

it cost me 1 day

[red zealot]

Oh my.

[covert canopy]

structural beams are in place

think i might go with something similar to the old one, heavily-reinforced looking

[maiden rover]

looking good

how did you made those chains?

[covert canopy]

BEAMS

caps

beams

[maiden rover]

i mean the core chains

[gentle sinew]

pretty sure those are the ones he's talking about

[maiden rover]

holy

how the heelll does thst work

[gentle sinew]

like this I think

you can do funky shit like this too

@maiden rover

[maiden rover]

HOW

[gentle sinew]

it's nothing more than 2 attachments 1 beam and a texture

https://tenor.com/view/shrimp-as-that-clash-royale-hee-hee-hee-haw-gif-25054781

[red zealot]

Not this meme

I am dying

[red zealot]

Nice, the spotlights are awesome.

[covert sun]

i need em

[gentle sinew]

@covert sun ^^

[covert sun]

i saw it last secod

lmfao

[covert canopy]

disaster

reactor would be HIGHER but i FORGOT TO RISE IT

[uneven fox]

add an actual melting effect thats just molten metal globs dripping off the reactor shell

i think that would be kewl

[swift jasper]

would be cool though hard to sorta perfect it to be honest lol

you gotta blend it right so it doesnt look like confetti falling

[uneven fox]

true

[carmine dawn]

that would be cool, it would also be nice to see a meltdown actually be a meltdown

[red zealot]

I mean, seeing that the only thing that holds up the reactor are the chains, which are only connected to the "arms", you could make a explosion sequence that it melts up to a point where it disconnects itself and crashes to the ground.

[covert canopy]

mega qsml fire

[red zealot]

Why did you change the reactor design? From the one with a structure on the receiving arms.

[covert canopy]

Felt like it

Anyways for now i sleep....

[red zealot]

Any updates??

[sonic flame]

Ok so, im tryna do a fire effect like that too, but how the hell do I get that fire so big

[covert sun]

his slumber is

not

done

[twin trail]

Game is similar to QSERF

[covert canopy]

unrelated, thought to post it here cause it looks very good

this might move on to just being general stuff, not just tnri, unsure though

[stoic elk]

holy doo doo fart

[covert canopy]

New pc, new motivation

[red zealot]

Dude that's fire.

[covert canopy]

Maybe expect possible revamp, i'm not going to rework all the old 2023 code

[covert canopy]

I actually had a massive upgrade

1650 to 4060

1650 is legendary though

cant say anything bad about it

[red zealot]

4060 is a extreme upgrade

[covert canopy]

4060 ti

and i5 9300h to i7 14700k

[red zealot]

I bet you still can't play orespawn in all dimensions 60fps...

[covert canopy]

Ok true

Fun fact

The game was never called tnri

it was called tnrs!!

because i'm incompetent

[red zealot]

( ._.) Rupert side disapointment

[covert canopy]

Its time to make a reactor that will absolutely lag bomb anyone who even dares to get 500 studs next to it

[red zealot]

Yup, I can barely play QSERF in the lowest quality wich the devs are concerned with optimisation, I imagine my pc gonna start to become a grill.

[covert canopy]

https://tenor.com/view/fire-writing-gif-24533171

I shall make the most unnecessarily detailed, complex reactor design, with details no creature will ever bear to witness, to absolutely crash any gaming rig ever constructed.

[red zealot]

Shhh

[covert canopy]

They actually improved a lot ngl

i played old qserf

its far better now

[red zealot]

Imma give it a try..

I swear, QS is loosing a lot to not study how my pc becomes a foundry heater.

[covert canopy]

This is all for now

Its 9 pm and i cant open my eyes right

[covert canopy]

10 pm rather

[red zealot]

U from SA?

[red zealot]

Reminds me of the iridium pipe cap in eclipsis.

But overdetailed.

[covert sun]

finnaly reactor

🙏

[covert canopy]

Yes

[twin trail]

Awsome meltdown

[covert canopy]

improving rn

[red zealot]

It wasn't a pipe cap....

[covert canopy]

better front end

[maiden rover]

wireframe?

[covert canopy]

The wireframe is no

[maiden rover]

😔

[tidal venture]

Is this using blender or Roblox studio

[covert sun]

OHOHOHOHO

[covert canopy]

I'm Cooking

[stoic elk]

Studio

@covert canopy ok thats enough

[covert canopy]

NO

[stoic elk]

Its eep time buddy

[covert canopy]

I must add more polygons!

I found the other jar of pills!

[stoic elk]

I said its eep time

I will personally nuke your new pc

[tidal venture]

I mean is anything built in blender

[covert canopy]

No

Only the icosphere

[stoic elk]

Nop

[tidal venture]

Maybe you should try blender as it's a lot easier to make complex things

[stoic elk]

I know this man for couple years and he has a thing for roblox torture

Gustav dont even fucking deny it

If you do we are getting into your animatronics

[covert canopy]

https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/002/210/122/5cf.gif

[covert canopy]

Ok true

[stoic elk]

Now its eep time

[tidal venture]

Well also it's better for optimization

[covert canopy]

Buddy i know

I just like suffering and lagbombing other people's pc's

[tidal venture]

Ok, sorry if I was rude

[covert canopy]

Nah nah

its fine

[stoic elk]

(he has a thing to act like a fivem moderator ocassionally)

Now its nap time gustav

Enough studio work

He listened!!

[covert canopy]

I go do something else now

[covert canopy]

will probably glue this one to the roof

[maiden rover]

Nice!!!

still

wireframe.

[covert canopy]

Nah

It looks almost solid 💀

[maiden rover]

😭💀

[torpid wraith]

amazing core

it is pbr mesh

[covert canopy]

I dont post much here anymore.. but i had to post this amazing example of what can be done with beams

rocket engine

it IS 24 attachments though, will work on optimized version

[swift jasper]

looks very elegant, love it

[covert sun]

omg..

[maiden rover]

YOOO

HOW

[maiden rover]

are you making a plane?

[light kelp]

24 attachments 😭

looks sick tho

[twin trail]

This looks like a Rocket

[light kelp]

really?

[covert sun]

lmao

[covert canopy]

Hello Chat.

[covert sun]

OMG HE IS BACK!

[maiden rover]

HE RESPAWNED

[tardy cove]

YOOOOOO W

[covert canopy]

power laser larp???

[covert sun]

the return

[maiden rover]

He returned

[covert canopy]

finnished

[covert canopy]

Screams in closed cooling loop

[covert canopy]

laser

[covert sun]

fuck yeah

[covert canopy]

No beams yet

Yes laser

just realised the cooling loops for each receiver are see-through

[covert canopy]

IDK

[covert sun]

ooh

that looks cool

[covert canopy]

finished Grr it needs buttons

Real ones will remember. heatsink gaming

I really. Really. want to rebrand the reactor to something other than pfr

Plasma fusion reactor = MID

[red zealot]

Maquina de Comércio Internacional
International Business Machine

Why the handles though?

[covert canopy]

Based off the nasa mission control panels

No idea why they got handles

They look cool though

Probably for disassembly and that kind of stuff

[covert canopy]

Glory to autosaving

Lost heatsink and part of core chamber

[covert canopy]

dials... that WORK

removed top line for aesthetic reasons

[covert canopy]

spent fuel pool (right below reactor

Sfent puel loop

[covert canopy]

qserf inspired lever... couldn't find any other good looking lever to inspire off

[limpid vault]

Correct, the handles were meant mostly for installation work or ease of replacement, as the old school thought was to simply build things as a module that could be easily replaced if it malfunctioned or otherwise broke.

Still a running concept in the U.S. Armed Forces for ICBM Silo controllers or other important computer control's using more analog systems.

[torpid tide]

Advanced Fission Fusion Hybrid Reactor

AFFHR

or AHR

Advanced Hybrid Reactor

[torpid tide]

A rotary telephone dial…

built into the desk?

I have now seen all things there are to see

[covert canopy]

Gotta have me some EFSS larp

due to the design, instead of just water dropping onto it like QSERF EFSS it instead uses 3 high pressure water cannons

proper models will come with core chamber

slightly better effect

[torpid tide]

You should take inspiration from the anti mass spectrometer containment for the containment chamber

just not orange metal panels

instead we ball with cocoa colored or gray colored metal panels

[covert canopy]

I want it to be like

Actually very small

Like very cramped in general

[torpid tide]

Oh well then the AMS chamber works pretty well

[covert canopy]

So it is actually slightly realistic

[torpid tide]

Yeah take a peek at some photos of the black mesa AMS chamber

it’s pretty small

but the paneling on the walls and the style of it is nice

[covert canopy]

chamber. Brick master race 🧱 or. Concrete 🪨

[torpid tide]

Wait but hear me out

METAL

🪙

[covert sun]

i really love the particles you make

what do you use for em?

[covert canopy]

generally i use toolbox decals and mix them in with tuned lighting and particle brightness

what really does it is the lighting though

[covert sun]

aye

nice

[covert canopy]

thing is you also have to do some compromises with colors and that kind of stuff due to the lighting

one on the left is brickcolor persimmon (255, 89, 89) which is what i would use for the digital displays

on the right is (150, 107, 107) used to obtain a similar color

[torpid wraith]

amazing reactor

[light kelp]

how the heck

[gentle sinew]

whhen s### it going toooo releaaaaaaaseee

[covert sun]

NEVER

[tacit canopy]

the screen kinda looks like the BWRF ones

[weary lagoon]

bwrf did not invent angled screens

[tacit canopy]

i mean the way it look with the bars on the side...

or it could just be me

[tacit canopy]

Ooh i might be taking a lot of inspiration from this ( NO SERIOUSLY THIS SH LOOKS SO GOOD DAMN! )

[covert canopy]

tasty ionizing radiation

[tacit canopy]

yummers

[slate dome]

that one is lovely

generalfusion lm26 pretty sure

liquid metal is injected and superheated, then ejected and used to heat up water

its a really basic concept

its superheated with the big pistons you see on its sides

real one has alot more of them but theyre smaller and more efficient

its a "pilmr" plasma injection liquid metal reactor✨✨

[covert canopy]

Btw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For those who haven't caught the ball yet!!!!!!!!!! I love to sleep

[covert canopy]

My lore idea for this reactor is like............ Big neutron laser shoot reactive material. Reactive material get angry and heat up.

Basically make water angry like every reactor

Turns out uranium plasma fission... is a thing??? This is interesting

NASA made a prototype for propulsion

[slate dome]

Short term ailments such as; broken legs, radiation induced sunburns, ARS, death, or chronic diseases induced by prolonged ionizing radiation exposure will not be covered by the employee safety contract if the subject has entered any of the demarked zones for a period of (>30) minutes. Thank you for your cooperation.

The demarked zone being the entire facility so what gives

[blissful totem]

hi everyone! ☺️

[gentle sinew]

hi

[tacit canopy]

when game release

[plush drum]

Nice

[covert canopy]

for those who have NOT read the writing on the wall!!! i will post WHENEVER I LIKE!! and WHENEVER I FEEL LIKE IT!!! rahh!! be it every aeon!!!

Anyways i may have overengineered this one

Receptor cup thing

heatsinks are fairly counterintuitive since you have to boil water... and that kinda cools it... but... COOL FACTOR!!!

Those asking about the wireframe will be met by death by firing squad, thanks

[wooden juniper]

[wooden juniper]

you better NOT

[covert canopy]

gigantic embed failure yeah

😭

[wooden juniper]

employees don't get embeds sorry

[covert canopy]

What is this 1984

[wooden juniper]

no it's 2025

[covert canopy]

Since when is this a reality 😭

[wooden juniper]

it's been like that for at least 2 years

[covert canopy]

But on god on god, i originally made this as a receptor it looks af more like an emitter (i will NOT call it a laser)

[wooden juniper]

if you want embeds you can apply for engineer, you more than qualify for the role I bet

[covert canopy]

Yeah i should definitely do that where do i apply again i forgor

[wooden juniper]

the amount of heatsinks is astounding

how to engineer

nope how do I

[covert canopy]

the fins really remind me of this

[wooden juniper]

how to corporate

oh because dyno is not here bru

[covert canopy]

it might be in outreach yeah

[wooden juniper]

RTGs my beloved

[covert canopy]

grrr i have to climb the corporate ladder grrrr

i cant believe applications for a block game would be so like real life grrr

[covert canopy]

I swear to my life i shall build the most overdetailed microwave on the face of the earth, and i will not stop until every 4,000 euro gaming rig has been obliterated, and i shall make the most laggy way to re-heat a strudel possible

Death is imminent even if it may be in blender

What do you mean i cant import it directly

They're trying to restrict my freedom!!!

[covert canopy]

This model looked Tash its 1,922 faces now dw

[eternal sluice]

shows up once a year
posts the literal coolest thing ever without explanation
gets mad at blender

amazing :)

[covert canopy]

as a brain-damaged gerbil i have to hibernate you know

For those wondering the Game will Never release... this is a social experiment to examine how people react to being gatekept from something for so long

I do have a summer break coming though... Maybe

Treat "never" as variable time

I'll prob leave development up to my children after i die

They'll know what to do with the gigantic pile of unused assets

And on another note, god do i wish studio had a hour counter

I sure as hell have over 5000 hours by now

Contrary to what you'll think i'm saying i'm actually grateful

It has brought me the freedom to create and express in my spare time, and only made me happier especially with the QS community and others

I feel like i'm genuinely aggregating to myself and self-accomplishment by doing this

[covert canopy]

Now include the part where i make a speech about terrible life choices

[covert canopy]

All i know is that i'll probably do this (if i hopefully have spare time) till i'm 70 and i'll never get tired of it

Kudos to the entire QSP server and those who showed support as its only allowed me to grow and build confidence in my own work

Genuinely you guys are fucking amazing

[covert canopy]

Anyways where were we

Long one or short one???

I could make the short one longer tbh

[swift jasper]

i do not care about wireframe or polygon

this just look so cool to even just look at

i am spending a good while seeing all the tiny details and appreciating it lmao, you are really good at this

[covert canopy]

This is really my point and is what a lot of people dont realise

This was never meant to be optimised, i will NOT make an effort to make it optimised, this is just meant to look as good as possible
This is why spent a fuckload of dosh on a proper gaming rig so i could abuse it to the depths of hell

[covert canopy]

And reiterating my life goal i shall make the most overcomplicated way to re-heat a bagel ever

[swift jasper]

do it

forget the polygons, i need to see the most overcomplicated microwave that will put studios rendering to its knees

[covert canopy]

that is honestly the problem with my builds
i add details where no one will ever see them, but i'm happy w it 😁

[swift jasper]

and its great

[covert canopy]

i really want... to implement something like reactivity poisoning if i end up scripting it

kinda how chernobyl had xenon poisoning and it killed thermal power

[swift jasper]

mhm

[covert canopy]

dont know how to implement it into the general surrounding lore though

i might just go for the "incredibly energy dense theoretical matter" #134912345923 path for this

[swift jasper]

yes

[covert canopy]

"we found a canister of the thing lying on the side of the road and it just... works. we dont know how, but do we really need to ask how"

[covert canopy]

ok so HEAR me out

what IF

Instead of neutron bombardment

We just have 6 "injectors" or "accelerators" constantly firing americium-242 into the "combustion chamber"

And then it does the thingamajig

Thats kinda... genius...

[covert canopy]

pretty much finished receptor/inlet/whateverelse

control rod slots(easier to see with cutout+main passage tube)

God bless bolts

going to hold off on the reactor a bit and focus on some interior + furniture props

[covert canopy]

Ominous

I wonder how many times i have rebuilt the reactor at this point

So after 5 minutes of spending my time scrolling up
Congratulations to who was here since 2023, this is now the **EIGHTH **time i've rebuilt the pfr, now changing to ifr probably

So congratulations

Consider yourself an og

[covert canopy]

New iteration of the heatsink design
And a tribute to one of my favorite designs ever

I am eternally cursed to never be happy with what i make and redo it 2 days later

[covert canopy]

BREAKING: IT HAS BEEN Bolted to the roof

I assure you it is perfectly sealed and will not leak any radioactive particles whatsoever

[maiden rover]

How did you make that heat effect? It looks hella fire (no pun intended)

[swift jasper]

im thinking clever uses of light sources (in and around?)

[maiden rover]

Maybe

oh shit sorry for the pings guys

[covert canopy]

Its like one light

In an attachment

[covert canopy]

It really is just one

Finally! Something performant!
