Politics are art are like steak and fine wine. They go together. Video games as an art form is no exception

same with food for example

crisp cedar Dec 11, 2023, 4:47 AM

yeah its very complicated but basically

#

its a really really really long story but zaum originally was owned by 3 shareholders or something

#

in 3 slices whatever

#

one of the three sold their shares to the second guy

#

and the shareholders that are like the actual creators dont own the ip anymore

#

because they dont have the majority or whatever idk

#

i forgot what happened already.

formal dew Dec 11, 2023, 4:49 AM

and theyre making a sequel without their involvement

keep in mind that disco elysium itself is based on an estonian book

crisp cedar Dec 11, 2023, 4:53 AM

#

i think theres fun media and art media

#

again, neither are mutually exclusive

drowsy marlin Dec 11, 2023, 4:54 AM

#

I use the term art very loosely

crisp cedar Dec 11, 2023, 4:54 AM

#

and theres nothing necessarily wrong with consuming fun media

#

but you can easily tell when something was made with passion and a message in mind

#

and when something was made to appeal to the masses in order to turn a profit

#

i guess you can call it

#

"canned art"

#

because its mass produced like in factories, almost robotically

#

put in cans

#

heavily advertised, distributed everywhere

drowsy marlin Dec 11, 2023, 4:55 AM

#

keep in mind giant projects are the effort of a lot of people. Some are in it for the joy of creating, some are in it purely to get some cash

#

so it's difficult to really put one label on a thing

crisp cedar Dec 11, 2023, 4:56 AM

aaand yeah not to discredit anyone for their contributions in something either

drowsy marlin Dec 11, 2023, 4:56 AM

crisp cedar Dec 11, 2023, 4:56 AM

heres what i want to say more

theres more art value in indie than non-indie

would you rather trust a man in it for the love of it or in it for the cash

I hate how he is double sided over some stuff, I agree the objector should be usable for many stuff, instead of disabling it, either a NSFW button or AI diagnostics could be used(not that devs would put effort in it)

#

I agree with the team recognition part but I hate how he goes "oh its that guy" and mocks the makers of those submissions, turning them to a board to attack by his no good community

#

then while reviewing stuff sometimes he talks about a warpaint for 5-6 minutes, talking about how to improve it which is mostly good feedback, then going on ranting about a group of people creating problems

he isnt the best person out there but I believe he helped a bit improving the submitted warpaints/hats

he can't say that outright of course (because it doesn't give him plausible deniability and directly inciting harassment is bannable in pretty much every platform lol)

I don’t think they won. I think Valve just made their decision. Honestly I’d be surprised if Valve didn’t have their decision made prior to the release of all the hubbub. They’ve been known to make their own decisions regardless of community input, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Game devs decide what their game is going to be and even with open community submissions, at some point they gotta draw a line.

Also since the topic vaguely came around to this person: I think it’s wild they specifically say “videogames aren’t made to represent you” as if character customization isn’t a thing. And as if there weren’t human characters in TF2. This guy thinks every game is Diabotical where characters are just spheres.

tf2c is at its best when it completely ignores its name. 99% of the time when they add a "classic" or cut concept it turns out that it got cut for a reason

#

but their original ideas are fun

unfortunately they refuse to remove the tranq gun so I will not be playing

summer willow Dec 12, 2023, 2:01 AM

i wanted to play tf2c without 200ping

unborn pecan Dec 12, 2023, 2:04 AM

#

tf2cdownloader has an issue on linux

#

where it downloads the archive to /var/tmp

#

instead of /tmp

#

so it stays on your system after rebooting

#

I have a pull request open to fix it, but seems like that repo is dead

#

I got it fixed on open fortress's installer

summer willow Dec 12, 2023, 2:07 AM

#

/var/tmp has more storage usually

#

i guess

#

idk how works, remember seeing something like that

unborn pecan Dec 12, 2023, 2:08 AM

#

summer willow /var/tmp has more storage usually

no like

#

/tmp is meant as fast (possibly small) storage with a short lifetime. Many systems clean /tmp very fast - on some systems it is even mounted as RAM-disk. /var/tmp is normally located on a physical disk, is larger and can hold temporary files for a longer time. Some systems also clean /var/tmp, but less often.

Also note that /var/tmp might not be available in the early boot-process, as /var and/or /var/tmp may be mountpoints. Thus it is a little bit comparable to the difference between /bin and /usr/bin. The first is available during early boot - the latter after the system has mounted everything. So most boot-scripts will use /tmp and not /var/tmp for temporary files.```

#

Since it downloads to /var/tmp

#

you end up with a 3-5gb file just sitting on your system

potent wolf Dec 12, 2023, 2:11 AM

#

wouldn't it be a better fix to delete the archive after it's been extracted?

summer willow Dec 12, 2023, 2:12 AM

#

yeah

#

also if the computer just dies for whatever reason

#

i believe you can go back to download because uses torrent

#

and the variable of maybe is small, maybe is mounted on the ram, can causes more problem

summer steeple Dec 12, 2023, 4:17 AM

#

oh! did quick check in the code, looks like if you set the bot to be "frozen" it just completely skips all of the movement think code, looks like they use the entity flag EFL_BOT_FROZEN, so if you give a bot Constants.FEntityEFlags.EFL_BOT_FROZEN it shouldn't look around

the immediate thing is like

the spawn being right in front of the point is strange

like I guess in casual when your team is stupid it's hard to defend? bc people have been saying haarp is blu sided too

livid oracle Dec 14, 2023, 10:12 AM

#

a criticism i ahve with the giant mechanic is like

#

you have to walk all the way from spawn to there

#

why not just make it so the bomb takes time to regen and it's somewhere behind the first point there isn't all that walking

#

also having like 3 ppl camping the bomb spawn is dumb

#

there should be a few shortcuts to get it

#

so you're incentivised to actually play the game instead of sitting on the bomb

jagged pawn Dec 14, 2023, 10:14 AM

#

it's supposed to work loosely like mvm so I get why they stuck with the whole single spawn point thing

livid oracle Dec 14, 2023, 10:15 AM

#

the fact that you have to either die at the right time or camp the bomb to be the giant is very silly

jagged pawn Dec 14, 2023, 10:15 AM

#

livid oracle so you're incentivised to actually play the game instead of sitting on the bomb

they tried this to an extent by making it not give you the bomb if you just stand on top of the spawn point but people realized that and just stand next to it so lol

livid oracle Dec 14, 2023, 10:15 AM

#

yeah i saw that

#

idk what they were thinking with that

#

the reason why ppl sit at the bomb is because if you go to the front line and actually play the game you will never get a chance

jagged pawn Dec 14, 2023, 10:16 AM

#

yeah

#

I think the only way to make it work is that you get it on respawn and you're required to have died to an enemy to qualify

livid oracle Dec 14, 2023, 10:18 AM

#

basically:

imo make it so the red spawn isn't literally right in front of the last point
maybe the giant should be immune to jarate (mad milk is fine imo)
add a forward spawn for the giant but add a timer before it respawns to compensate
add a few shortcuts around where the front line is to teleport to the bomb when it's available
first point seems too easy to cap though idk if it's just casual teams being really bad

Map makers truly love their pets, and sometimes place easter eggs hidden as either subtle nods, or tributes. For Galleria, I ended up physically hand-painting a portrait of Latte, and imported it as a model.

summer willow in the customization i saw that it is using `cl_mainhud_safemode`, what is this?

I don’t think anyone has answered you yet, but to the best of my knowledge the main menu safemode is supposed to be shown when Windows OS is started in safemode and you open TF2. Which I guess could mess up some things in game, but doesn’t safemode disable applications such as TF2? Idk

But its use in custom huds is that it’s a main menu element that is togglable with a game command. Which makes it really useful for making a custom menu, as normally you can’t cause things to appear on the main menu on the fly as it’d require a hard reload, such as toggling antialiasing, changing resolution, etc. So huds will sometimes put a customization menu or put the friendslist inside the safemode panel, that way they CAN be toggle on/off.
As far as I know, the command only shows/hides the safemode panel, I don’t think it affects anything in the actual function of the game.

left sand Dec 14, 2023, 9:15 PM

#

because of safe area of the display

#

its a term to refer to the area of the presentation which is visible by all TVs

#

since some TVs will cut off part of the borders

#

same principle applies to safe areas in documents

#

there is a margin where you dont want content because paper/printers will cut it off or itll be lost in scans, etc

high current Dec 14, 2023, 9:17 PM

#

Ohhhhh that makes sense. Sounds like a pain in the dinkleberg to develop around

Because it's a promotional weapon, I think they were going for "Fortified" as in "strengthened," but also "Fortified" as in "brought into Team Fortress", because it's a compound bow from another game turned into a reskin. By making it a Team Fortress reskin, they "fortified" the compound.
