If I set room speed in GameMaker: Studio to 60FPS, all my sounds play twice as fast as well. How do Is low down the sounds to the normal speed?
The only thing I can find is a function that doesn't work because it's deprecated.

do you guys still bother with the weekly roundup where it's like a chart filled with agdg projects?
>>144573976

>>144573934
was your room originally 30fps or something? I set mine to 60 fps in the beginning, sounds play at normal speed. I use both WAVs and MP3s. Are setting a new room speed through code or are you doing it in the window?

Sorry about the boreal.aggydaggy.com dry spell. I'm thinking about what I can write on coroutines and continuation passing in general.
>>144574934
thinking about it
any good programs to screencast?
>>144574781
Don't make it 3-6 seconds. Even 1 second and a really fast loading bar will be enough.
You could also try making your loading screen a minigame, since Namco's patent on that is kill.

>>144574781
You should add a nice transition like a simple fade or wipe, but that's not the same as a fake loading screen.
Don't actually try to pretend it's loading something, that's retarded.
>>144575729
For while you're walking around? No. For beginning or ending credits or a special event, absolutely.

Way ahead of you guys. Already plan on adding a short stun effect to it as well, but I've also toyed with the idea of giving Mantishrimpgirl her own Pistolshrimpgirl rival. Basically rushdown vs zoner. But if that doesn't happen then the mantis is getting the pistol move.

Working on the space suit.
1, Space suit on the left got a corrupted Substance Painter file, one of the reasions I made a new one and I dont want to continue working on it and made a new one
2, Space suit on the left got very much detail to the point the mesh detail is too much and has about 4 different materials while the one on the right only got 2 materials and the mesh is quite simple and should work on a toaster
3, Space suit on the left is more detailed and got deeper folds and such

Thank you very much!
Sadly the file of the space suit on the right got corrupted for some reason and doesnt work anymore.
>>144579248
Yeah something went very wrong in the making of this gif. Hold on let me get some better footage.
Does extruding a shape into itself fuck anything up if i'm using blender to create models for unity?

Reworking my game engine to use your suggested structure. Not sure how I feel about it yet, it seems a lot more constrained than a pure ECS implementation and I haven't worked out how best to do things like collision detection with it, but it's interesting so far.
>>144580937
Well, really, the way you'd structure things is the same as you would with a regular "pure ECS". It's just as expressive, but comes from the perspective of adding flexibility rather than starting with too much and having to taking it away.
That said, for something like a turn-based roguelike, where being able to do anything to or with anything else is important and performance is not, it may not really give you much.
>>144581560It's not a roguelike anymore
I heard the free version of SketchUp 8 (back when it was made by Google) is free for commercial use. Anyone know if that's true?
I'm trying to put together a work pipeline that is free as possible. If I ever finish my game and put it for sale I don't want to get sued for using pirated software (does that every happen?)

Total noob here, any other recommended programs for an UE4 survival horror game?
In GM, is there any way to make a camera not turn into a jittery fucking mess when following a thing moving at a speed with decimal values in it
1.5 speed is the perfect value for something.

I figured it out. Turns out it was just one sound that was playing faster, which happened to be the first one I added, and I fixed it.
Thank you.

Is that fence and the stuff behind it one image or two?
If two, PARALLAX THAT SHIT.
it's been 20 minute so far
I just want to see what it looks like and to see if I can steal anything
>>144582641
random placeholder from the internet
just wanted to see how much speed is needed to match with the animation
>>144582081
you can make the same modeling if not better in blender, it has measurements too and are easier to read.
maybe the viewport shading in blender isn't good so you can do stuff like adding hemi lights and matcaps
Stupid question maybe, but how come I can't open the marketplace in game maker? The Marketplace Beta tab only opens up to "Help" and "Preferences"
>>144582828
If you want you can model with matcaps in blender absolutelly no problem. Hemi lights might be more of a problem depending how many verts you are modeling, but if you dont do something super detail it should not be a problem.
It might be hard to arrange your viewport in Blender if you have no idea how blender works though.
Guys, I forgot to set my room speed to 60. Is 30 fps that bad in a 2d pixel plat?
Related questions, should I have all the values that are called each frame (animation speed, movement speed) be calculated based on the room speed in case someone's system isn't able to run the game at full fps? Is this even possible?
>>144582705
>24GB RAM
>>144583664
>Guys, I forgot to set my room speed to 60. Is 30 fps that bad in a 2d pixel plat?
No, but that's a stupid reason to keep your game at 30 fps.
>>144583345
it depends, sometimes you need to see topology more clearly and if you want to paint on models hemi lights are good. problem with matcap is that it hides shading artifacts that the default shader is showing, but its fun to model with
>tfw friend keeps asking if your game is done
>tfw you aren't even close
>>144583664
>Is 30 fps that bad in a 2d pixel plat?
Pretty inexcusable in 2016
I couldn't imagine someone having a toaster enough toaster to not be able to run a simple GMS game(unless you do something retarded), but even then you would use Delta Time, not the room speed.
I don't think using delta time is a good idea for a pixel platformer.
>>144583714
Is not all that expensive.
>>144584094
don't tell anyone about your game until you're ready for feedback
the simple act of telling people about your game gives you the mental satisfaction of having worked on it and you're less likely to complete it
>>144573720
Please stop forcing your "collab jam" in the OP. The next jam is space themed not collab themed. People can collab all the want on the space game.
>>144584436
>People can collab all the want on the space game.
This is true, and it's helpful that someone's going to match teams, so I'm glad the info is in the OP.
Is your game frustrating you or something?
Do they have a chance?
>>144582081
wings3d for modeling for when you don't feel like dealing with blender. Do note that it doesn't have plane tools.
>>144584571
Neat, but it doesn't need to be forced in the OP. Especially not at the very top and it should not be labeled as "collab jam" because that is not what the jam is.
ok so how do I make something like this on my own
>>144584965
heightmap + textures
>>144584965
just be yourself
>>144585035
>that
>heightmap
That's volumetric.
>>144584965
Perlin or simplex noise for the heightmap.
Or diamond-square displacement if you can't into some simple 4D math.
The textures can be generated from the talus (difference in height) and height. So large talus equals rocky. And deeper green the lower it is.
>>144585197
There's CLEARLY signs of erosion and artist intervention. Also it's not a fucking heightmap terrain. It's not that simple.
>>144585350
I would presume nearly all of it is handmade in Unreal's landscape editor, which I have no idea how to use (also I have no aesthetic sense).
>>144585475
It's not exactly very aesthetic, it's just showing off that it can do volumetric terrain, convincing erosion, bodies of water, vegetation, etc.
>>144585350
Heightmap generation + erosion simulation + artist touch up.
Nobody would do that by hand from scratch

The hivemind has already decided the jam is collab based. If you submit a non-collab game people are going to call you a faggot. Enjoy.
If I wanted to get into Unity/Unreal, would it be best to start with GM if I didn't know coding?
>>144585969
that's stupid. It sucks, I hate it
and I don't like it
>>144586105
That's ok, you don't have to like it, but that's the nature of anonymous groupthink. We already argued about this over and over and space collab is now go.
>>144585969
>le hivemind!! xD
This isn't reddit you faggot. It's just some retard forcing a meme. People spamming
>collab!!
has been happening for months now. It's just a stupid meme.
>>144586007
yes, you won't really be able to make anything interesting without at least being competent in coding
>>144586228
>It's just some retard forcing a meme.
It was literally tied with Space for votes, and you're a fucking faggot who is clearly permanew status. Go ahead and submit a solo game for the jam, and watch people mock you for it and say it's shit and you have no friends and for no one to care about it.
>>144585758
Does unreal ship with this terrain creator though? I doubt it.
It's probably some third party program/plugin
>>144586348
collab is not a theme. I'm not here for friends, I'm here to make games and play other peoples games.
>>144586641
You can tell that to me all you want anon, I don't give a shit. I'm just telling you how your "I don't have friends" game submission is gonna be received if you submit it for the jam. Accept it or don't.
>>144584965
I think this is all you see of that mountain lmao
>>144586105
Whoa whoa wait a minute guys, this anon isn't happy with the theme of a two week jam.
I think we should do a couple more revotes.
>>144586838
thank you
>>144586396
it does I just don't know how to go from this to that
>>144586838
Good revote guys, looks like it's still Space Jam with heavy encouragement to Collab.
>>144586887
Sorry bro the vote was private.
>>144586743
worth it
>>144587028
Nice mountain tiddies.
Try some noise. Perlin or simplex, maybe
Hey guys I know the jam theme but I don't like it I'm just gonna go ahead and make a stealth game for the jam instead thanks
>>144587309
the absolute madman
>>144585718
It looks to me like it most likely is a heightmap just with rocks and shit added on top.
does this resemble a collection of batteries?
>>144587543
Batteries or toilet paper rolls stuck to a box, yeah.
Texturing should sell it
is HeartBeast's GM tutorials any good?
>>144587543
With textures it will.
Also it's way too high poly for something so simple.
>>144587745
Cool, quick question though, i connected the two twiddly bits at the top to the main cuboid shape, is that gonna fuck me over in texturing? And if so, can i remove them from the cuboid?
>>144587898
Yes and yes (left as an exercise to the reader).
It will also fuck you in rigging\animating. I guess you go with floating limbs since I can't imagine how else your battery-bot could move.
>>144587309
As long as you work with someone else then that's totally fine! ;^)
Please remember to email me so I can group you up with some other yesdevs!
Anyone know why this is getting stuck in an infinite loop? It just keeps going back and forth forever.
I'm trying to floodfill through the 2D vector and set all the 0s equal to 3. My game is randomly generated, and this will help me find unconnected areas.
>>144588402
you need to keep track of coordinates you've visited already
>>144588402
You keep repeating indexes.
Example, take these three tiles:
1 2 3
If you call floodfill for 2, it will call floodfill for 3, which is calling floodfill for 2.
You need to keep track of already visited indexes.
Pro Tip:
Is your (real time) game boring? Try increasing the speed of everything by 1.5x, sometimes that extra speed is enough to make a game more exciting.
>>144588213
How would you go about removing those twiddly bits? i used the join thing to connect them if that's something i've fucked up.
>>144589052
Is the mesh connected or the object? If it's the object that's fine.
Otherwise duplicate the whole thing, delete the bits from one duplicate, everything except the bits from the other, combine the meshes into one object.
>>144589509
I think i fucked up the object by extruding it into itself, i think i'll just redo it and make it right this time.
Doom-like dungeon crawler. Enemies will be 2D sprites. Game will have only 2 colors, the colors can be changed whenever,although if I end up not liking it I'll change it. It's just a crazy idea.The thing on the right is a sword, it's easier to tell in motion.
>>144590597
>Game will have only 2 colors
No it won't
>>144590597
looks like it won't make it past this image.
>>144588721
>>144588556
Thanks, I think I've got it working now. After the if statement, I just added an "else { return;"
there seems to be a lot of resistance against my forced meme of collab jamming.
for those saying the jam is space theme, you are right, but collab is also a shared theme. You guys voted for it and next thread op should probably say "info for the collab/space theme jam". Collabs are not mandatory but I am matching people with teammates who are better suited to their availability, ambition, ability, and aexperience (the 4 a's).
hit me up if you want to be placed in a group
http://pastebin.com/NEPv0pPC
>>144591517
no, no. The theme is only space. The fact that you are helping people get into collab groups is only a secondary part of it. The jam is not "collab/space jam" it's "space jam, and a guy is helping people collab"
Newdevs already get confused by our super relaxed jams. There is no reason we need to confuse them even more by pretending like the jam's theme is collabing.
>>144582440
write your own camera and use floor() to keep the x/y values as integers
>>144591517
Don't worry about shitters friendski. It's not your forced meme, people have wanted to for a long time but without some kind of structure it's impossible to get anything going, and you saw the votes yourself.
I think it's good to keep the pastebin in the OP, but we should just call it Space Jam. Something like:
Space Jam, July 14-31
If you want to collab, an anon has volunteered to put together teams.
Collab info: pastebin
>>144591994
but-but
you all voted for it as a "theme" and it was tied with space in every poll
i guess you could call collab the format and space the theme but whatever..
>>144592221
That seems like a good solution to me.
someone needs to remind the next thread to include that closer to the time
>>144592368
Assuming no one makes an early thread I'll make an OP with proper information. I'm going to sleep soon, so hopefully this thread stays alive and under bump limit til morning.
>>144592230
Well, people will mess with the OP just because there's been contention, and for the kekaroos, that's almost guaranteed. But I think a majority of /agdg/ is on board for Space Jam with encouragement to collab, so no worries.
>>144592230
"we" also voted for lewd jam. Just because people vote for it doesn't mean we shouldn't use some common sense to choose a good theme.
Let's assume for a moment that "collab" is the only theme. What would that imply? If it means that developers have to work together to make a game, then that isn't a theme. That's just people working together to make a game, there is no jam there.
If the THEME were "collab" then that would mean the game would need to focus on collaboration. Which would basically force the dev to make a multiplayer game because collaboration requires multiple people.
Both of those are terrible ideas. Forcing people to work together to make any old game is not a jam, and even if it were it would exclude way too many people. If the theme were collab it would be too limiting and have no real direction.
Space as a theme is the best option because it's not overly limiting, it can be interpreted multiple ways. And more importantly it doesn't exclude people who enjoy working alone.
>>144591517
Don't even worry about it oniifam. Just keep pushing. Everyone gets shat on here, everyone, no matter what it is they do or don't do. Just do it, ignore the naysayers. I don't even understand why they have a problem with it.
Hey assholes, where the FUCK are the games????
Yeah you heard me right.
>>144593693
Theme is space collab. Deal with it.
Even though 2d platformers are still coming out, and the "metroidvania" exploration-based route is pretty common, all the rest of them seem to go "you play the levels, in order" mode, possibly with a level select screen.
Why have node-based maps with hidden side paths and other secrets fallen out of favor? Is there something wrong with them? Because I'd love to have such a thing in my game.
Did some lazy "Optimization" with the UE4 converter. Now instead of 20FPS with a 100 AI scenario I get around 50 FPS average. Though Intel CPU's with better single threaded performance usually cap out at 62fps.
>>144593878
Theme is space. Period. With a guy willing to help anyone who wants to collab.
>>144593914
didn't Axiom verge do it?I didn't play it
>>144594046
Revisionist history won't make your solo jam entry and less invalid anon.
>>144594198
don't worry about him, anon. next thread I will make it clear that the jam is collab only theme
>>144593693
There were what, maybe 5 games last jam, and around the same before that? There's already 47 posters in this thread alone so I don't get why so many people have a problem with these jams when they weren't even going to participate in them anyway. There's no one stopping you guys from making a Donkey Kong Country clone for this jam, so does it really matter what the title of the jam is going to be called? No it doesn't. I'd worry about actually making the game first before I'd start complaining about anything.
>>144593845
>I don't even understand why they have a problem with it.
We have legendary funposters, most likely there is much less resistance than appears.

Check out Halloween and Winter jams. There were a ton of games, because those were fun, simple themes.

>>144594874
>Space is a fun simple theme
>collab/space is not a fun simple theme
I agree. Neither is boat/mecha. Part of the problem is thinking of this medium as a democracy, where we want to make sure everyone's satisfied. Everyone will never be satisfied, and sometimes it's just contrariness for fun or out of personality defect.
It's also nice to have shorter jams, that way it's not this dramatic life-or-death ordeal if your favored theme doesn't happen.
>agdg is dying
I disagree, but it's undeniable that when we have rampant shitposters, the kind who derail the general for entire threads, every day, it drives people away and /vg/ has slow moderation, so this really is kind of a problem. It's been mostly absent lately, and the tone of the general is like a completely different place. Memories are short, but I'm sure that'll happen again someday and we'll be reminded. I don't know what I'm rambling about.

/kspg/ here. Can you make a better space game than Kerbal Space Program?
Please, add space telescopes too.
>>144596536
you need texture bleed. I forget what it's actually called, but draw past the lines of the UVs and don't put UVs be the edge of the texture. Also you're going to want to learn how to optimize the space used in your texture. Ideally, there should be no empty space in your texture so you can utilize all the space you can.

>>144590597
Using only two colors is an interesting idea. However I suggest you to try to have at least 4, so it would have a Game Boyish-feel, and you would have more chance to add detail to the environment later (like different kind of walls, a little shading etc.). However if you really want to push the two color idea, I say you should take a look at the Zelda Jam entry, The Legend of Progress. The dev created a good looking and appealing game with only black and white, so you can learn a lot from that.
Keep it up! I wonder how you'll progress and how it'll turn out to be.

Thanks anon
yeah fixed the problem that I couldn't use dialogs in d3d / ogl.
The problem was thread local storage causing the target bitmap to be NULL when vsync is called from the timer thread, which you're not really supposed to do.
But the d3d / ogl layer wont flip page unless an explicit call to vsync() is made because of how i wrote it, I decided to hook the vsync() calls rather than run a separate thread, and the dialog function is just a one line function that doesn't return until the user presses ok (like win32 MessageBox() kind of thing).
So there was nowhere to call vsync() in a loop so that the screen would update, so the user would have to blindly click on the screen, the program looks like it was frozen, they couldn't read the message etc. So my workaround was to detect d3d/ogl mode, and if so then install a timer that calls vsync() every 13ms just before calling the dialog function, and to remove the timer right after.
Now it works and doesn't even crash I set the target bitmap explicitly to the backbuffer off the display every vsync() call. So everything is working perfectly between dx7 / d3d9 / ogl backends

Not sure what GIS is but if that image is descriptive just write a coordinate conversion system that takes some sort of coordinates and translates it to coordinates of another type of map.
For instance gameworld->addresses. You keep a 2D array of addresses, translate the gameworld coordinates to the 2D array (perhaps it maps 1:2, 1:6 whatever, perhaps it's a more complex topology mapping).
Something like this:
https://hero.handmade.network/episode/game-architecture/day032
(he replaced it with another system later, could start there 3:00 explains the old system:)
https://hero.handmade.network/episode/game-architecture/day055
Not sure I'm finding the right stuff though. I remember there being a very good explanation of the mapping between positions in the immediately local world and the worldchunks somewhere.
>>144607843
GIS is geo information systems
its basically modern cartography and surveying
if you did geology in highschool you would know all that stuff that they do GIS with.
Its just maps with data layers, and also extensions to databases to do spatial queries
so instead of select * form table where number between 1 and 10
its like select * from table where location within 10 miles radius of this
or select * from table where point within this polygon
I think its weird to bring it up in agdg tho
>>144607843
Thanks those look like pretty much what I'm looking for, because I'm wondering what's a better approach, doing it by hand or leveraging existing GIS stuff.
>>144608092
No reason you couldn't do GIS stuff on fictional geography, right? I'm assuming. So basically because legwork is already done with GIS, maybe it could be useful for geographical simulation. I should just learn the basics to see if it would be worth getting into for gamedev though.
>>144608021
this can be the work of none other than dan ashley himself.
>>144608092
>Its just maps with data layers, and also extensions to databases to do spatial queries
So i was pretty close I guess.
What is there even to learn though? All of this stuff seems like very basic gamemaking stuff. Modifying positions in different ways is what we do like all the time. For the
>its like select * from table where location within 10 miles radius of this
It's just normal collision detection.
>because I'm wondering what's a better approach, doing it by hand or leveraging existing GIS stuff.
Well I'm bias as you might understand given the series. But I genuinely do believe that any GIS system would be overly encumbering (to work with) and I doubt the performance is going to be 60hz viable given how most applications like this today live on a very high level where convenience of use is valued far more than performance. Like, even google wouldn't do more than one of these per second right? And they're probably the ones that care the most.
>No reason you couldn't do GIS stuff on fictional geography, right? I'm assuming.
I don't see any reason not to really. It's done all the time just not explicitly as GIS. We have height-maps for geometry, navmeshes and some sort of AI-context layer (triggers maybe) for instance.
>>144608569
>>144608309
Forgot to reply.
>even google wouldn't do more than one of these per second right?
Per user. And on average it'd be way less.
>>144608309
yeah you could have a geo spatial database query be part of your main game loop I suppose
but wasnt it that you didnt want to generate fictional terrain, and you instead wanting to use real world data, so you needed to import the GIS formats because those are the files you got?
Or is it more like there was a nice frame work / toolkit that is doing it on GIS data formats like some kind of map loader / viewer / coordinate transformer so to re-use those tools / code you will generate your level data in those formats? If so you should pick a real location on earth and use the correct coordinates for that grid so that the coordinate transformations work properly you can probably find some free stuff on government website, like usa geological survey?
I've been a bit lazy today so no boss demo, maybe later in the week
But here's a script I just made to do the following
>http://pastebin.com/pMcFPPTd
Basically it's a fake jump that disables the collider of an object when it's in the air and keeps track of positions of things to fake jumping in 2D.
What will happen is when he jumps, I can move the shadow towards the player and it'll look like it's jumping towards the player.
>>144608569
>>144608309
Hi I've done some GIS stuff. Its generally not suitable for real-time stuff like games.
Spatial databases take up a lot of space and there's a lot going on in terms of accuracy and math for geodesics that will slow things down.
Collision detection for games and real time applications is done with a very strong emphasis on speed.
>>144608535
I know I'm a shitposter, but I'm not THAT bad
>>144608569
I see. So you're saying any GIS libraries or tools would have too much overhead to be useful most likely?
>>144608716
I'm thinking like, if I had a fictional geography in mind, would it make any sense to learn and use existing GIS tools, or is it going to be in almost all cases better to write my own stuff because the GIS tools will most likely carry too much overhead to be useful.
I'm not sure, I'm tired and just came across something GIS-related and thought "that's kind of neat, I wonder if I should bother learning more for use in a fictional geography"
>>144608716
>If so you should pick a real location on earth
That's a really cool idea. HawX did something like that. Although it's obviously very limited. GeoEye I think it's called. It was obviously just a gimmick. Didn't have any gameplay impact and just made it look like you were flying over sortof high resolution google maps (polygon count was low as fuck though, Ace Combat Balkan war had them beat).How the fuck do I remember all this stuff.
>Spatial databases take up a lot of space
Hopefully I'm not missing something. But it sounds more like that's an issue with the amount of data you're dealing with, because the world is huge. Anon's gameworld will be much more limited.
>>144608789
Ahh thanks. So basically, overkill? Is that going to be true with GIS across the board or is there a range of lean-bloated?
>>144608971
>So you're saying any GIS libraries or tools would have too much overhead to be useful most likely?
Yeah. They simply don't have the same constraints you do. It's fine if they have a query that takes a second. That'd be awful for you unless you're basically just doing it on load. Even then it'd be pretty bad.
I also suspect (just pure speculation) that they're using databases like mySQL or whatever. That'd also be far too slow for a game.
I think it's worth noting that (at least with HMH as a resource) implementing your own system for this will not be difficult. Doesn't seem worth it to encumber yourself with some library that's not intended for your use.
>>144609120

>>144608971
Don't bother using GIS libraries. Just download a cracked version of ArcMap and fiddle around with it to see if you can find anything worth adding to the game.
GIS is mostly used for planning (overlapping terrain usage areas, geology, slope inclination,etc.. for landslides, floods, etc..) and interpolating limited data sets (krieging,etc..). Since you're the one creating the world yourself, it's more likely than not useless and it'd be easier to create pretend-tools than real tools, unless you want to jerk off finding informations about something procedurally generated.

Thanks,
For that boss, what I'll do is have the body do some stretching before it jumps to make it look like it's actually jumping.
Later on I plan on having things like Fireballs or Debris rain from the sky, so this will be nice for that too. I can trigger events with my updated version when the entity takes off or lands.
I can do something like "Fireball falls from the sky, and when it hits the ground causes fire to erupt everywhere.
Or I could do (in this case) when the slime lands, it sends out a shockwave doing damage and knocking back.
This boss fight is basically going to be the slime randomly trying to jump at you until it decides to do a BIG JUMP. When it lands, it stuns itself and you can shoot it, but if you get hit by it or the shockwave, you're dunzo.

just looked this up, seems really interesting. So I think I'll just have to learn about GIS a little because I keep finding it very interesting, and pick and choose what if anything is relevant to gamedev.
>>144609987
They release a new version every so often, usually a 2 year cycle which makes the full license the better choice.
You can keep developing and releasing games with your forever license. Nothing says you need to upgrade, and a lot of people don't so they can be sure their stuff still works.
There really aren't massive bugs that require you to upgrade versions.
Can a fellow GM:S user tell me a good way to check for collisions when with something like a laser moving about erattically? This right here is first draft of said laser, and say that I want to make it twitchy and spastic like lightning, how will I consistently be able to check for collisions?

just remember that most procgen works by using perlin noise to create a landscape and that'd be retarded if you want to do something more with your terrain.
You first need to work on a procgen that generates the geology of the area (and the geology must make sense) then creates faults and folds, then erode the area based on the litologies and preferential water paths and adds landslides based on material cohesion, groundwater and slope inclination.
tldr. having a gis extract infos from procgen requires a lot of work on that procgen beforehand.
doing a 'fall at the first hurdle'
Progress!
Added nifty placeholder sprites for the protagonist.
Hearts look better as well. Picking them up displays a Zelda-style heart piece counter, and getting enough for a full HP upgrade triggers an animation.
To do: Fix collision issues with the new player sprite, and write which hearts have been collected to the save file.
>>144596626
Haha, hallwaydev! I've missed you!
>>144610430
That's very interesting stuff. More googling/bookmarking geology. I've gotten as far as getting a perlin noise map generator working, and then I very briefly began to look into the next more complicated models, such as creating where a river would go. So am I getting it right that what your saying is, a gis would only be useful with a complicated geological model? I really should just learn the basics of gis, I think I'll just do it because otherwise I can't understand if or when it's useful or not.
I see things about machine learning and understand the basic ideas (mostly just fancy regression), and I wonder if generating terrain that way (using real data to generate, instead of perlin-based generation) might end up being a bit easier than simulating the creation of a planet/weather/geology/etc. And result in something more complex than a simple perlin heightmap.

Survey data is kept secret and is sold individually to companies for civil engineering drilling, etc..
Making a procgen based on perlin noise + rules for the starting geology and regional stress, then rules for the evolution would probably achieve quicker results, unless you already have a database and know a lot about machine learning.

So here's a question: Anyone else ever go on a spree and find a ton of music that'd just fit with the game they're making?
Like... find tracks that would legit fit in their game/level, make a huge playlist and listen to it all on repeat while maek gaem?
I've been listening to the same playlist for months, occasionally adding a track or two. I feel it keeps me hype as shit and gives me motivation.
For instance - If i was making a side-scroller beat em up akin to Double Dragon, but with a fantasy medival setting - I'd definitly have this in my playlist.

hy hands started hurting alot
what do
I wanted a windows computer to run visual studio natively and test windows builds. Now I have been given a free PC, it had winXP with all sorts of malware so today i installed win 7 32 ult
but I had to disable everything and it still has only 100mb free ram after booting. Its been installing updates on the shutdown screen for 8 hours so far. and it is only at 102 out of 230...
is a 2x 512mb DDR1 2ghz P4 IBM netvista, using integrated graphics that steals 256mb of the RAM. it only has 2 ram slots It has like 100meg RAM free and 10 hard faults / sec when idling at the desktop. I'm actually impressed though that the fans turn completely off I open the case and the cpu fan + case fan are not even spinning, but if I extract rar archive they spin.
on ebay I can buy 2x 1gb DDR1 for $9 Aus including shipping or maybe I reformat reinstall windows xp on it and run older visual studio or maybe I try to sell it as is on ebay for $50
It has a floppy drive and 9pin com port so could work as a dos pc too
If I had a job I'd just sell it for anything and buy a proper pc but no job I send resume dont get any reply

depends greatly on what the class is about.
the bachelor GIS course i had was all about planning so we played with a small portion of spatial analysis tools (surface, zonal, reclass).
the master degree GIS course was all about interpolation and spatial statistics.
I guess for anthropoloy what you'll need the most is georeferencing. What is the main topic of the course?

Its to do with your posture. Pic related helps mitigate the pain if it gets really bad, but mostly you should just take a break. Take frequent breaks.
>>144612645
>how it works
it works like shit. x32 only software, there's no way to import a series of instructions so you have to manually input batch operations, it's prone to crashing, if it loses connection to the licence server it will throw an error and close, even if you're running an operation, old add-ons don't work on newer releases.
I guess it's good for free credits since it's pretty easy to use, but i highly doubt the course will be any useful, so if you're following it to learn something i'd just read the software manual.

For my current game I'm basically making 2D recettear with more town/store development added and a fighting the bad guy plot added instead of just paying off debt.
My dream game I'll make someday is essentially just Suikoden 2 but with more focus on recruitment and the building up the castle. My favorite thing in games is having a base that improves as you play and do shit, I'll buy a game just because it has that feature.

Not that I know of sorry. I just got the newsletter and felt like sharing because I feel disappointed in myself.
Let's say that I want to make a simple game, a platformer or top-down view with only 1 melee and 1 range attack for your character, and a bonus of 2 or 3 spells max.
How would you make it fun? Keep in mind that it needs to be a simple game.
>>144615039
FAST
if you can't have depth, add FAST and flow
Where the boatdevs at?
>>144615039
Add screenshake
>>144615039
Make it something unique and dynamic. For example instead of having one shitty animation of you swinging your shitty sword as a default attack, design your main attack as a physics based whip. Now every time you swing your weapon its a different outcome every time. Then you also open up opportunities for one button to have multiple functions. Like say if your whip hits a grapple point you can quickly swing in that direction or something.
Then again that's just my gamedev fetish. Lots of people prefer a canned reliable non-gimmicky attacks
>>144615039
Have the melee/range change according to environmental factors. Have it be PVP and have a level editor that has a really lightweight map format. Sortof like:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6teaZNqRKA
It failed terribly. Not entirely sure why I liked it. Quake players were really opposed the game though.
But you can have the attacks just do different elemental types instead. That's pretty neat.
You can also have it be a game that isn't really that spectacular but have the effects make the game.
You can also have areas affect the enemies. So the core of the game isn't really about damaging the enemies it's more about directing the AI to your advantage.
so i downloaded some gamedev pdfs
I opened "Gamedev essentials 3rd ed" and scrolled to a random page

To be honest, it's kinda true. But that's because basically anything that can be done in games short of puzzle and rhythm games can be taken in a political context.

A lot of games do thrive on the concept of doing good and thwarting evil, which is definitely political in nature. So my answer to that is "depends on the game". Being political doesn't mean you're parading around trannies as gods, anon. Even Mario has a political side to it.
>>144615509
>environmental factors is not something we can call simple.
Really? Can we have more specific constraints?
Because implementation-wise it's very simple. And the idea of GTAoE/persistent map AOE effects aren't that complicated to understand.
I find it problematic that you have both ranged and melee though. It's hard to make a simple mechanic that encompasses both of them. That's why I went with ground based effects because they can act differently depending on what you use, but still be unified. So for instance Green can be a melee dash attack if yo stand in it and it can be a toxic bomb if you use ranged in it.
>>144615567
The issue is clearly that they're applying their own view on reality to make the game political.
If you have a carnivorous creature in your game you're political with regards to vegans.
It makes more sense to have it be about intent (or if something is explicitly political).
would you guys play a sickass pinball sim
>>144612376
Ideally, it'd be a clone of An Untitled Story: pure exploration platforming across a large 2D world, with tons of secrets and a few cool boss fights.
My plans are for it to be a little more linear, but I'm no longer sure it's such a good idea. Do I have enough areas and enough paths to equal the sense of freedom you can find in An Untitled Story? Not sure.
>>144615039
IMO fun in a traditional game (a generic platformer, for example) is about learning a skill, and overcoming challenges with that skill. Skills can be anything from movement, to using abilities, to noticing important details, etc.
You've got to make sure the skills is fun to use: responsive movement, mechanics that feel satisfying. In practice, your attacks and spells must feel good to use even with placeholder rectangles.
You've got to reward your players for using the skill well (XP/money, items, but also simple visual gratification). And you've got to make sure the challenges are not too tough, but just enough for the player to be proud of beating them. See flow theory.
Fun isn't a mechanic or an idea, it's something you build with gameplay. Most of the time ,at least. The simplest game doesn't need additions to be fun, it needs that underlying structure.
>>144612068
I'm here. Have 2 contradictory ideas for the limbs and how they interact with walls.
>Have the limbs always converge with the crosshair before returning. If they hit a wall, they'll immediately return to the player
>The limbs will always go their maximum distance, even if they have to bounce off walls to do so. Looks cool, but now the crosshair doesn't necessarily indicate where the limbs are going to go
I have a tumblr over at thekingofakrillic.tumblr.com, but I wouldn't bother with it since it's basically become a Plok fansite at this point.
>>144615842
Bouncing allows for a lot more interesting high-level play, which may not be what you're looking for in a singleplayer platformer game. If you're willing to spend the time making sure that the bouncing doesn't lead to anything gamebreaking, I think having fun stuff like that is worth it but I would fully understand not having the time to spend on such a small, unintended mechanic.
>>144615773
Tons of people do really love pinball sims.
But standards are very high. It's a tough crowd. But they're elderly gents so you can charge quite a bit.
Make it VR maybe?
>>144615842
Oh, and here's a vid of the other method. This method makes it a lot easier to hit nearby objects. The bouncing method makes it fly past them because it always wants to go a set distance before converging at the crosshair.
>>144615842
It does look a bit confusing in the webm. I think it's the kind of thing that people who play the game a lot might really appreciate, while someone more casually playing it (like a reviewer) might dislike it.
>>144616004
I'd say return should be normal, and bounce should be a powerup form.

Well, I threw something kind of together. I'm learning, I guess. I need to make a little town with some buildings and NPCs, and I still have to code up entering buildings/shops.
I also found a bug in my code using OverlapActorByObjectType - it wouldn't work with a radius over 15000. I think it was finding too many objects with all the foliage and stuff. I changed it to OverlapActorByChannel and added a custom trace channel and it seems to work fine now, though.

Do they really not understand that it's more about letting devs have artistic freedom and people shouldn't meddle so intrusively? Especially in AAA they do market research and I certainly don't want a vocal minority to kidnap games I could like for their political gain.
The point is that if you force devs into your framework for political reasons it's not becuase you want to further their games. A gamer who sees flaws they want fixed for their enjoyment are clearly invested in the game as they want it to be good. If they're a small vocal minority they're doing it for more nobel causes than the political vocal minority. Devs decide in the end anyhow.

Is it easy to put a time rewinding mechanic in my game?
Saving the position, velocity, and movement of literally every single movable object at every single frame would be too inefficient right?
>>144617625
It would be a bit easier to sample the position every 5 frames or something and interpolate between them. You wouldn't have to store velocity and movement, in either case.
>>144617625
Well depends on what you are making it in I guess. But seeing as I saw someone have such a mechanic in GMS. it can't be that hard.
>>144617458
>I didn't really think reddit was that anarchic.

lol...
>>144617625
Unless you want a sophisticated solution, I'd just do that. Except I'd keep track of those variables every 10 frames or something since you can interpolate between those snapshots, I mean you don't need frame-perfect rewinding. (Even if you did it every frame, 6 variables for each object per frame isn't much computing)

if you're going to interpolate anyways why wouldnt you just save the last action/time of each object and simulate where they would be at current time?

If it's really that important to the overall experience, then go for it. However I think having 16 colors in total is kinda cheating on the whole idea, so I say stick with 2 for the whole game. Personally I love minimalism.

I can't imagine that you'd want to do and individual sound for every letter. Wouldn't that sound too noisy? Once per syllable seems more logical.

git commit -a commits all your modified files, so you would do git commit -am "blah blah"
I assume that's what you want. If you use that you only need to use git add when you want to make multiple commits from one set of changes or when adding a new file to the project.
So I'm using GM:S right now, but I think I am going to gradually move over to Godot. It seems promising and I think that as development continues it will be a great open source alternative to the big 3d engines of today. Any thoughts on this? Anyone using the engine and can comment on the workflow?
>>144620382
you are a colossal faggot
all of those jams are organized by various communities. The ones that you know depends on what communites you are in
this is also a community we also organized jams
they are no better than ours except been going longer and more popular
Like for example, gm48, gamemaker only? So you are a game maker dweeb? Otherwise how would you even know about gm48?
So anyway, i checked what others i knew about but like they're old dead by now
this one is still active since 1999 to 2015 i think http://www.speedhack.allegro.cc/
I thought there was one where they had to remake old / classic video games, and the site had a purple background and a rainbow and all these sprites in the banner, but I can't even find it to check
I dont think there is anything else like ludum tho?

Not him, but as long as your object is pointing the right way, adding transform.forward * speed to your position is sufficient. There's also transform.right and transform.forward, just experiment with those until your object moves in the correct direction.

Just googled it. Seems like less of a jam and more of a competition. Thanks for the help though.
>>144620659
Thanks
>>144621013
I think AGDG jams are pretty poorly excecuted because there's a lot of resistance to jams, yet a handful of people don't care and just keep forcing the jam until it "happens", leading to disasters like wj. If AGDG advertised their jams and had a little bit of preparation time to let everyone know about them, perhaps even rustled up a panel of judges or a few small prizes to make them seem a little bit more legitimate, the jams would be much more successful than the current wrecks they are today.
>>144621275
Yes, the only reason I know about GM48 is because I am a gamemaker dweeb (no bully please). That's irrelevant to my question though.
Ludum Dare and Global Game Jam aren't community-centric. Though there are communities that revolve around LD and GGJ, the jams themselves are meant to be open and for everyone to join in.
>>144621732
desu most of the devs that actually post here are "gamemaker dweebs", and the only reason that guy is making fun of the engine is because he doesn't have a game himself.

>wanting the return of rewarded jams
>>144621846
Oh yeah cunt? no game huh? I'll fucking make some pong bullshit tonight and show you up then. fucking rekt
I'm completely clueless as to where to start but I want to make a crappy game
I've used Ren'py in the past but don't mind starting from scratch with something else.
My game isn't fancy, but I just want to have it where you unlock things like a field, and it produces crops, you then use the crops to unlock a forest that produces wood, then use the wood to upgrade the field and so on until you have a town of stone, metal, gold, each new product will allow the previous buildings to produce more as you'll need more for each unlock
kind of like cookie clicker but things are generated over time not mashing a mouse
it could be purely text based until I draw backgrounds, people etc
What is the best way to do such a thing?

>>144621732
have like a choice of 10 different jams, make an automated system of collabs jam with rules so people won't have to spend time chasing people and organize groups
>>144621968
Nice one.
>>144622053
i meant take a vote for every jam with 10 different options and not just discuss it publicly
btw this can be put in the op too so people won't miss the discussion
>>144621884
The rewards are a just a suggestion to drum up more attention. Adding prizes alone would do nothing to the jams, I was just thinking if you added prizes alongside maybe an official looking site, maybe added a site for entries (rather than another amateur-looking itch site) and advertised it onthe 8ch AGDG community, steamchat and /v/'s AGDG threads, the jams could actually become a popular community event. Because right now they're literally a meme.
>>144622053
>>144622130
jam's already decided fuck off
>>144621732
why don't you organize a jam yourself? you seem to know a lot about how to do it
>>144621970
>What is the best way to do such a thing?
It's a very low requirement game in every way.
Assuming you're familiar with python (and ren'py was something python) it seems rather ideal.

>>144622161
i don't want to change the jams, i just want to avoid monopoly when it comes to jam
also plenty have people have come forward and said they want to make a special site for everyone to vote and leave contact info/questions.

What about tigsource? gamejolts? indiedb? or the gamemaker community if you're a gamemaker dev?
>>144622360
Hey friendo, guy that's making the site here. I actually delayed the feature BECAUSE someone's already doing itand to work on my game.I actually plan to add collab to the beta site this weekendish. I'm just trying to work out some of the design kinks of anonymous site and non-anonymous requirements of collaboration / advertisement -- trying to figure out the best way to run the system (Feedback and ideas are helpful in this regard)
But I don't think I was going to do anything with Jams. Unless people wanted it, but it seems like there's no consensus on anything about Jams.
How do i make it so unity treats this model as a single model rather than a lot of models.
>>144576335
Please do a tutorial on how to model and render something like this.
Even if its just sped up footage please.
>>144622569
Never thought of those. Leaving to check them out now.
>>144622621
go to blender click A and ctrl+j
>>144622650
No it will just depress you, all they do is make a cube and then extrude it and scale it and 20 minutes later a hot as fuck naked teenage girls comes out of it, and then you make a cube and extrude and scale it and it looks like the fucking Steve from minecraft.
Don¨t go down that road, it will destroy you.
>>144622621
Group them to an empty gameobject...
Sent my collabjam application.
Hopefully I won't be grouped with a bunch of artists and be put in charge of everything else. That'd be awkward.
>>144622621
the not completely retarded approach would be to use blender to make the model and import it into unity.
alternatively you can just parent them all to an empty game object
>>144622578
Are you planning on collabing?
>>144622802

>>1446227923D modeling is just tracing 2D artwork from two different perspectives

Yeah I did.
>>144623113
Well yeah but I only started modeling humans like one month ago. I just watched Sebastian Lague's tutorials and practiced a bit.
With practice I'm sure you could make a model like the one you quoted. Everything needs time.
>>144623075
I'm sure that's not true and even if it is, you have till July 14th if you wanna practice art, learn a new language, get accustomed with an engine, there's lots you could contribute. There are other inexperienced entries as well as people who are willing to lead a group of newer devs. There are also those who only want to work with experienced users and I'm here to match everyone based on all that. I'd encourage you to join. It's gonna be a fun experience.

Are lewd collabs a thing?
>>144623691
He's doing the developer equivalent of loading an entire MMO world map at once. (Except here it is just a really detailed, really large cinematic landscape.) Of course it will have absurd requirements. That is why it has sublevels.
>>144624240
Suppose. Dark souls is more openworld than metroidvania since there's no mechanics needed to overcome obstacles really. It's all combat.
>>144624265
yeah i think so?
>>144624265
How about a collab that is not for artists only for a change?
>>144624265
Only if it's delivered as an addon to the game. And the game is good without the lewd.
>>144624265
Im remembering now all the worst game development experiences I've ever had working with other people, and now I'm imagining their fetishes being thrown into the mix.

My body is ready
Sorry for the retard-basic question, but I'm having trouble with this script in GM:S
//Enemy Collision
if (place_meeting(x,y,obj_player))
{
if (obj_player.y < y-16)
{
with(obj_player) vsp = -jumpspeed;
instance_destroy();
}
else
{
room_restart();
}
}
At the moment, the enemy destroys itself regardless of which angle the player comes from.
>>144624478
What if you shared the same fetish? I think it would be wonderful
>>144625309
Thank you anon! Here is the concept art for it.
>>144624265I wish
>>144625526
Ill collab with you anon what did you wanna make
>>144625504
Can I see a screenshot of the collision, with both objects' y values shown.
>>144625504
I usually put everything the player does inside the player object (or scripts called by the player object). See if doing it that way works better for you.
>>144624472
A lewd game can be good without the lewd but a lewd game that delivers lewd as an addon is not a good lewd game.
>>144625504
Change the second if statement to say this:
if (obj_player.y < y-16 && obj_player.y > obj_player.yprevious)
To make sure the player is falling.
>>144624608
True, it would hardly work out in that case.
>>144625656
How can I show the values during play? Sorry, new to this.
>>144625504
whenever you ask this sort of question ALWAYS tell us what you want the code to do, not just "it's doing this, please fix"
right now your code should cause the enemy to be destroyed when it collides with a player that is above it (in theory - it still depends on how big your sprites are and where your sprite origins are)
what do you want it to do?
I feel like I'm missing something here.any input is appreciated
>>144625775
This worked perfectly, thank you.
>>144625842
That is exactly what I wanted it to do, but the issue was that the enemy destroyed itself even if the player walked right in to it.
Progress!
Finally got this line break working in my dialog, now just working on getting code to happen in dialog without showing.
>>144625808
On the line after "if(place_meeting)" put
show_debug_message("My y: " + string(y));
show_debug_message("Player y: " + string(obj_player.y));
And it will print to the console.
>>144625851
What is your issue?
Basic dialogue system implemented
>>144625635
Right now I'm just entertaining the idea I don't know. Maybe a Castlevania thing (the old ones)
>>144626196
fabsf(-231,53...) returns 1.
It was a dependency issue, one of those 'post it and immediately get an idea' type situations.
Who knew fabsf was only introduced in C99 ...
keep up the good work my longboys
> remember to not eat all your candies at once
>>144626483
Kind of weird that a stub would return 1 instead of something like NaN, let alone that it would compile in the first place.
>>144626664
The stub was probably returning an int, so 1 is the default error value to return.
But yeah, not really intuitive.

Yes, but in my case the definition for fabsf wasn't found, so it just assumed a function returning an int in it's place.

In edible form, yes.

Do most of you guys' games start out as tutorials which you edit until they are your own? Or is that frowned upon?
>>144628396
>giving a fuck either way
just make sure you're editing good tutorials and not Unity's "let's put everything in Update" tutorials
>>144628396
There's nothing wrong with it if you put in enough effort to make something unrecognizable.
>>144628396
It's not frowned upon, it's a good way to start learning. Pretty much everyone starts like that.
After a few tutorial games I started to get used to how a game is made and I've been able to start games on my own now. I still look at examples or tutorials if I need help with a specific things though.
>>144628396
>Do most of you guys' games start out as tutorials which you edit until they are your own?
No because I know enough to do it myself.
>Or is that frowned upon?
Not at all. If that's where you get your base code, then go ahead.
>>144620609
that's still not how a scope works
>>144628396
>>144628569 This, just because someone's teaching something doesn't make it right. Take everything with a grain of salt, ESPECIALLY tutorials that have to do with programming. The Dunning-Kruger is strong in this field.
>>144628396
It all depends on your experience, I'm sure the devs who've been hammering away at this shit for a few years have their own stuff but a lot of the new people will have Frankenstein monster game of a bunch of different tutorials.
I just wish game maker studio had better tutorials, heart beast and the others have horrible mic's and leave in huge sections where they just go "uuuuuuuuuuuh" instead of talking. Wish their tutorials were written instead.
How do you make decent heightmaps for UE4 in a FPS scale? No matter how ridiculously big I make my heightmaps in World Machine it's still too polygonal when I import it into UE4 in a FPS scale.
I even tried using the landscape subdivider thing, to no success.
>>144628396
I've made a game based on Heartbeast's Udemy course (I got it for like $7.50 when it was on sale... it's like $200 right now so you might want to wait for another sale) and holy shit, this dude makes sure you understand EVERYTHING. He has a YouTube video series that basically teaches you to make a Secret of Evermore style ARPG too.
Just get good tutorials so you're actually learning and understand the game you've made well enough that you CAN edit it substantially.
>>144628793
>The Dunning-Kruger is strong in this field.
One conversation with Googum is all you need to know about Dunning-Kruger
>>144628396
No, they all start out with me experimenting. I only look for tutorials for specific things I'm stuck on.
If you're just copy pasting a whole game, what's even the point? If you don't even try find the solution yourself before getting someone else to solve it for you, what are you really doing?
I tried to make a game but idk the collision detection and the sprites are all fucked up so i still have to fix these bugs somehow
>>144629165

>>144629165
So uh who is the girl after the pong game ends?
>>144628793
The dunning-kruger effect isn't even the main issue. The problem is that most tutorials are limited to what they teach.
i.e.
if Input.GetKey("up") transform.position += new Vector3(speed * Time.deltaTime, 0, 0);
is good enough to move a cube in a 2 mins tutorial, but you should use custom made character controllers for your game.

juice you mean fluid and better animations? the gameplay itself?
the ideia is a 2d side scroller beat n up with stickmans with lots of gore and xiao xiao/matrix stuff
here i just made a stop animation and edited the run animation to make things more fluid
i will make jump and some attack animations today

WHY. THIS IS A TERRIBLE IDEA.
Does anyone have sprites from other games I could use for reference?

I remember your game! I'm really excited to try it.Or at least I would be if I had friends to play it with.

ive got the rules right here and i dont see anything about that.

this is something only a senior animator will make

This was done to death in flash games in the early 2000s but looks smooth anyway good work.

Thank you anon! I hope to make it playable in single player also. But it is not focus.... that market is saturated with better games.

The same reason a namefag does anything?
Need some advice here. Writing my own 2D engine in C++ and I was leveraging SDL. Been using the SDL_Renderer to render my scenes and that's been working fine. I thought I might as well try to figure out OpenGL and use GLSL shaders where I can too: particle systems, dynamic lighting, etc. The problem I've run into is that the SDL_Renderer can't be made to use shader programs and you can't use it in an OpenGL context either without issues. SDL provides a method to bind an SDL_Texture to an OpenGL context, but it throws an error about it not being "supported" every time. I don't get it.
Would it be better to just abstract a GL textured quad to a sprite rendering method instead? I'd rather not port what I've got to SFML because a lot of my code is done the "SDL way." I'm not really sure how much I'll be using shaders, and I already have code for particle systems, but it would probably be useful to have it available.
I still don't really know OpenGL. The API is confusing to me and I can't do much besides render a textured quad. I also will need to change the world coordinates to "match" OpenGL coordinates. I think i can use an orthographic projection? I really don't know.
A little guidance would really help. If I can get on my own two feet with this I can implement it.

What you're looking for is trading in your bash, for some delicious zsh, and then also installing oh-my-zsh
>>144632351
>>144632616
every problem can be solved with the fundamentals (which is why they are fundamentals) i think most of the difference between the amateur and the pro is the ability to overcome the panic that sets in when do something out of the ordinary
just remember your animator's survival kit
>walking is a controlled fall: lose balance, regain
>weight shifts down when foundation goes, shifts up when foundation returns
same as the two legs only now you're working with 8
>>144634794
It's beautiful.
>>144633292
Using openGL in SDL is usually pretty easy, you don't need a renderer for that.
>init SDL2
>create SDL_Window
>create SDL_GL_Context
>do opengl stuff
>call SDL_SwapWindow
now the openGL stuff will be quite complicated if you want to use modern OpenGL.
Maybe this'll help you http://pastebin.com/7jdAQhLB
It's a rough edit of my current main function using SDL2 and OpenGL2. It probably won't compile but might help you do things in the right order.
>>144633447

3d? Unity or UE4 or Godot if you want a completely open source alternative
2d? Gamemaker, Love2d or Godot.
have fun

What are you, a pleb?
How do I pick a sprite color palette?
>>144633484
>>144635098
Thanks for the tips. I've got a textured quad rendering where it needs to be thanks to setting up the orthographic projection. Even works with my camera code. I'm going to have to muddle my way through optimizing this, but if I abstract this to a sprite rendering method it should be easy.
Just a few more questions, is the SDL_GL_Context a frame buffer or should I make one for myself? Should I only call SDL_SWapWindow when I want to paint to the screen? I'm basically doing that, only with the SDL_Renderer instead. Just want to make sure I'm not doing stupid wasteful stuff.
>>144636989
Go with colors close to each other on the pallette or on the exact opposite side
>>144636989
Very carefully
>>144637007
GL contexts are much more abstract than that, but you shouldn't need your own framebuffer except to do post-process effects. And yes, SDL_GL_SwapWindow should only be called at the end of rendering.
>>144609454
Thanks for the feedback.Yeah i see what you mean with the perfect line

>>144637610
even if they had 0 animations you could still make a game with them
>>144637487
Thanks again, mate. I may not do much with it right away, but it's good to finally have a grasp of what I need to do. I'll get basic rendering done and then try some shader programs.

Email anon here,
come July 14th will it be possible to post the groups on the aggydag site so that can be linked in the op?
I plan on emailing each participant with their group members names and contact info as well as posting the groups in the thread
so i was just wondering if putting it on the site would be necessary/possible.
If you wanna enter into a collab placements:

>>144638073
Just make sure you can easily swap colours around if need be.
>>144635812
>UE4 isn't open source
>>144638163
Have you never seen The Matrix?
>>144638073
It's best to stick with a palette because they usually have a good selection of colors. And more importantly all your art will have a consistent color theme, which is important, even if you're not good at art.
For a single sprite it might be a good idea to only use a few colors from the palette, 4 or 5 is usually good. It's a bad idea to use too many colors in one sprite, it gets too noisy.
Keep background tiles even simpler so they're not distracting.

One final thing, how would I go about using one of these palettes in aseprite?
>>144638484
>post the groups on the site

What would this mean? They pick a team name or something? Put their contact names online?
Even if they're throwaways I don't think this should be done, I think it's a terrible idea. Leave this to the teams.
>>144638743
i did receive one which i replied to already in emails
if he can confirm that was indeed him, Im pretty certain it is.
only I may organize teams
>>144638643
Yeah. But if you watch closely it's like a static image where there's some poor ass animation of boxes sliding back.

I haven't gotten a reply. Checked spam too.

im not including their contact info on any public forum. in their submissions i ask for contact info to give to their future group members which they willingly give to me. i will then privately email each individual with the contact info of their group members. what i will be posting on the forum and site (possibly) is their pseudonym which is also required in the submission. just a short, original and appropriate name that they will recognize is them when they see the groups (something like douglassDev etc.)

You can pretend asteroids break down and leave frozen chunks of ice behind like in the movies.
Eventually the ice melts and creates water vapor (because of the low atmosphere) and everyone knows water vapor doesn't exist in space. Duh, that's like, science.
