you know what I mean m8.
Threadly reminder that if you use premade engines you're not making your own game, you're just using other peoples work and claiming it as your own.

The one that has the current most promise.
If you don't have an idea, then go play some games from your backlog.
If you have multiple ideas, flesh them out as detailed as you can and you should decide which one appeals to you more.
If you have no ideas, and don't like/play vidya, then you might as well just find a new hobby.
>>146307989
donut steel, sorry.
>xenko still not in the OP
Is this thread ran by Unity shills?
>>146308378
Using the official releases, you can distribute your game without disclosing the source code, but you're not allowed to modify the engine code.
By compiling Xenko yourself, you're allowed to modify and compile the engine but you must distribute all the source code with your game.
wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
>>146307796
More like you are contorting your shapeless girth into the square hole that the devs built, with some of your flab always sticking out and breaking down part of the walls so that you can do things the devs didn't account for.
Still easier than building a form-fitting hole for yourself when your shape is nonexistent and it's physically impossible to make it align with your body's limits properly without leaving some unnecessary slack. You also may or may not accidentally put hard edges on the inside and destroy your blubber.
>>146308505
Using Unity, you have to get an enterprise license which they wont even tell you what it costs to even have source code access at all
>>146307951
It's weird, because there's nothing fundamentally wrong about saving and loading the progress of a suspended coroutine. It's either a particular state of a state machine (e.g. in C#) or a closure (e.g. in Lua).
>>146308159
What a shit explanation. I hate Indian code monkeys.
>>146308505
What's wrong with that?
>>146308505
That literally means in the first instance you do what you normally do with any other engine.
In the second instance when you modify the engine, you distribute the engine code.
how is that a limitation? and how hard was that to understand?
>>146307796
Still trying to make people fail Blake. So Cute.
Now us real devs are making progress without you. :^)
>>146308735
>What a shit explanation. I hate Indian code monkeys.
Wait, is that why most of the Java userbase is so ridiculously bad?
Are they actually mostly Indian outsourced workers?
>>146308665
>>146308735
>>146308872
Or just use neither and build your own.
Forcing source code release is cancer though.
>>146309017
They mean the source code of the engine, not of your game.
>>146309017
Nobody is forcing you to use their engine. This is the most ridiculous argument against GPL or similar licenses.
>>146307796
Why are you posting in a language you didn't create, on a site you didn't create, breathing air you didn't create, on a planet made of elements you didn't create? Hell, you didn't create yourself, so you technically don't exist.
>>146308934
There has to be something wrong with you to voluntarily use Java.
>>146308075
literally just one button press.
I have no idea how to properly tell Xinput to fuck off after only one send.

Did you misread my post?
I never implied that I'm an active Java user.
If you want to know, I was forced to use Java in university. Otherwise I do C, C++ and recently did something that could almost be called "using C#".
One of these days I'll get off my ass and do Assembler on my Arduino.
>>146309925
yes, how did you know
>>146309989
>I never implied that I'm an active Java user.
I know, that's just my explanation for the Java userbase.
>>146310049
As a blender master myself, I wanted to make sure you weren't an impostor.
>>146309587
How many hands, faces and monitors are required to use Blender?
Is there a guide to hotkeys that I can print out and recite every morning during the dedicated Blender-basics-learning year that is required to learn the Blender basics?
Are you even capable of feeling the pain of someone who scrolls by using the scroll bar instead of the mouse wheel? Or are you too far gone when it comes to the horrors of user interfaces?
Is making a Dark Souls clone a good idea now? It feels like the series has died since 3 was underwhelming.
>>146310212
Blender interface is top tier
Is there any easy way to do something equivalent to GM 8.1's sleep() in GMS?
>>146310468
Well we have Nioh still, and if Capcom suddenly gets money and finishes Deep Down.
But sure why not, the indie influx of souls will be fun.
>>146309447
It doesn't have the equivalent of .OnButtonDown or .OnButtonUp?
>>146310543
what do you need sleep for?
>>146310212
1. you only need 1 monitor 1 face and 2 hands
2.the only hotkeys i use are S,E,G,B,X,Y,Z,GG,R,Tab if anything i don't feel like looking up in the mesh menu i simply bring up the search bar by clicking space
3.i got used to it, can't say i like it.
i use "mouse to cursor" option and i can zoom in and out of objects easily
if your game was a real live girl, what kind of butt would she have?
>>146310676
No Xinput is sparse as shit.
Closest thing are bit flags.
The solutions right there though, I'm just being dumb and not focusing properly.

Maybe use XOR to change pixels w/o an temporary buffer? If you use SSE or AVX for the XOR you can swap 256 or 512 bits at once.

So I just got into Gamemaker and I'm quickly finding out I'm a literal code retard. I tried making a platformer but can't make the character jump in a way that I understand the code involved. So the next logical step is "Fuck that, Next project". Concepts and art really aren't a problem for me, but the actual coding is. Assume I'm a n337 with no talented or willing friends to assume the role of programmer.
What's the easiest game to make with GML?

Yep, you're on your way to a bright future.

Use OpenGL instead.
Who wants to suck my dick choke on it?
>>146311073
Why are you even using Xinput directly?
>>146312592
I miss Phishposting.
Shame he copped out so early.
GMfag here.
How would I reference a ds_grid inside a a ds_list inside a ds_map?
Ideally, the Map contains NPC names, list contains relationship level needed for dialog, grid contains the dialog lines.
Unless you guys have a better suggestion for building a dialog relations thingy.
>>146312765
With...indices?
>>146312717
Because I don't like how SFML does dpad, nor does it have proper trigger support. Also no vibration.
But now that I solved that embarrassing hurdle, it's fine.

Is there any game out there where you wizard battle 1v1?

SDL & GLFW does the same shit.
Plus I get access to fully battery stuff now, and that never hurts.
>>146313340world of warcraft
real talk though there aren't any good ones out there for that exact thing. there's a wizard game mode in dota.
but for a 1v1 it would have something that requires skill and not just press q and shoot in the general direction type of game
>>146312543
I kind of like the infrastracture that GameMaker offers, like storing my sprites and objects in a neat little asset tree. Is there something for OpenGL that offers that? Or will I be staring at a bunch of code on a screen?
>>146313405
rejected for what?

>>146311858
i'll try it when i dive into SSE and similar stuff someday, thanks!
>>146312543
i'm using OpenGL. i'm just flipping the texture i loaded from hdd before uploading it to the GPU so that uv 0,0 is in the bottom left corner
>>146313561
Windows Explorer
>>146313493
I didn't even notice. Probably because he's irrelevant
>>146312940
Well for instance:
map[? "Ur Mom"] = ds_list_create();
Now unless I'm missing something, the way to actually create a grid from that is by doing this:
var mapList = map[? "Ur Mom"];
mapList[| 0] = ds_grid_create(10,5);
Is this wrong?
I guess my next question becomes, how to reference that grid?
>>146313608
What are you using for loading the texture?
Ok that's it, I'm stopping engine deving bullshit by download ue4 right now

I was thinking that spells would be cast via mouse gestures, drawing a shape of a glyph. The resulting power would be dependent on your accuracy.
>>146313917
If its the one I'm thinking of, they turned off the servers.

it's not 1v1 though and it's super chaotic/makes no real sense, not to mention it's pay2wiz
>>146314083
WHAT THE FUCK!?
How would you be able to work that with different DPI settings and how big the sizes would have to be?
It's a good idea. but it feels like someone with a pen and tablet would do much better in a game like that.
>>146313813
You just kinda stack the code like so:
ds_list_add(ds_map_find_value(ds_grid_get(maze,50,50),"Exits"),north);
This is not a great system though, dialog is a bitch and it's generally better to use XML files or something and access them with a parser to do your system.
>>146313405
>gamedev courses
>>146314198
I was thinking a spellbook would pop up, with the glyph on the left page, and the paper to copy it onto on the right. You'd have a good bit of screen real estate. You're right though, I bet with a wacom or similar tablet you'd be able to do a lot better.
>>146312328
Platformer is literally the easiest.Go look for Shaun Spalding's tutorials, they can get a retard making a game in no time.
I separated my game into classes now everything stopped working, consodering doing everything in main ffs. Starting to get tired of working with monogame, any c# framework suggestions?
>>146314268
Alright, thank you.
Yeah, sounds like that'd just be a frustrating nightmare.
I guess I'll read up on XML parsing. Completely unfamiliar with it.

>>146314739
Yeah, I'm also working on the same sort of thing.
Setting up dialog trees is just a major pain, not helped by the fact that no one seems to have bothered to make any sort of tutorial for it.
>>146315093
I don't even like C but it's pretty sillyironic evento think that only people who don't understand OOP don't want to use it.

I don't wanna live in my parent's house and make games with no guidance whatsoever with no one to ask a question when I'm stuck. What if I spend 3 years in my parents home and make nothing worthwhile.
>>146315832
ECS isn't good for cache locality, either, unless you split it up such that not every entity could have any combination of components.
>>146315632

Would somebody please explain something to me?
I've come here numerous times over the last 3-4 years. Every time I spend 2-3 months lurking and "making games", except I don't make any games.
I keep starting engines which I drop and delete after a few days. I have no ideas for games. I barely play games at all.
I program since I was 15. I've theoretically stopped coding in November 2015. At the time I left the last open source project I was still a member of. I don't find programming fun anymore... yet I came here again this month.
>>146316014
>Well how the fuck else are you meant to do it?
This is the result of a poor math education + streamlined CS education, and a lack of creativity. I'd explain my personal approach but I doubt you have done any graduate work in control theory.

I don't know what changed, it just stopped being fun. I dropped the other side projects I was doing at the time and even canceled a C++ gig with a big mining company.
Maybe I just "grew out" of it (I'm 26).
>>146316470
Yeah guess I'll try finding a new hobby.
>>146316281
Try something new, maybe make a game for a different platform or even try to get good at art.
>>146316762
What if a component needs to be used by more than one system (i.e. the cleanest way to have component interaction)?
A B or C for dialogue boxes? The camera would start centered on the first speaker of a cutscene and then populate further dialogue boxes centered on other characters in the scene, re-centering as needed if they're too far off from the camera.
The +2 number over the emblem is the current reputation the player has with the character, with the emblem being the faction. Reputation ranges from -9 to +9 since I don't want to cram too many digits in there. I considered doing some sort of graphical representation for reputation, sort of like Harvest Moon has different-colored hearts, but I don't have any good ideas for that yet
>>146316281

>>146316878
In my studio we have "warnings as errors" on. They look inoffensive but they bite you when you're not looking.
>>146316878
You're shit then. Put your compiler at its most pedantic level, and then come back when you have 0 warnings.
>>146316972
I like A.
should've done a strawpoll instead. so you don't have 10 people respond to it.
>>146316972
B
>>146317017
That IS tight coupling.
>>146317009
It's commonplace to say "tree" even if there's sharing through variable binding and it's technically a DAG. "Tree" is more describing the recursive structure. "Graph" is typically reserved for more nebulous constructions.
>>146316972
B and keep the portrait for every subsequent line

Which is why I used the word "graph". I don't believe real-life conversations are well-modeled by trees/DAGs, it's just something easy to implement in software and people tend to forgive the unrealism it introduces because "it's just a game bro"
>>146316972
I'd go with B but I'd make the character name smaller.

A looks the best, I like being able to see more of the character, plus the character sticking out of the box a little bit looks nice. The name is highlighted and above the text, so it's easy to see the name of the speaker instantly.
B would be second, looks pretty standard, but not as nice as A.
C is the worst, it feels disconnected.

>That didn't answer my question.
then you probably have no idea how data oriented programming works
>>146317579
>>146317673
If you were trying to say "dependent on each other" and not "independent of each other", which you utterly failed at BTW, that's not what I'm positing. The components are just data, they can't depend on each other. Systems are just functions, they can operate on more than one component at once easily without inducing coupling.

I understand it fully, which is why I know that bloating structures with redundant data is not a solution to cache locality.
>>146318080
C++ has futures in its standard library now.
I got really deeply nested in a conversation with my friend the other day, I had to say "Something Else" like 5 times before we got to a new topic.
There is nothing wrong with modeling conversation as trees.
Reminder to add modding support to your game. There are plenty of people that buy games just because of the ability to mod them. It will also extend the life of your game way past what it normally would be.
>>146317950
>Systems [...] can operate on more than one component at once
that's the definition of tight coupling, or low cohesion if you want.

why you don't want to use industry standard, well tested code?
>>146318262
>>146317768
Accurate. I have crippling anxiety, even trying to code is extremely hard. The most frustrating thing is I was a programmer for like 6 years.
>>146318231
Components are POD, systems are functions/procedures.
If you have a behaviour that is fundamentally "spread across" multiple components, like integrating velocity into position, what else are you supposed to do? How is that not cohesive?
>>146318375
Bloating structures with redundant data IS good for cache locality?
>>146318290

Am I doing something wrong, here? In another function I'm setting an item's dead variable to true, so it should get deleted, but items.size() doesn't go down.

I know what an ECS is, and I never said that you can reach 100% cohesion ever. I'm only saying that you should try to minimize it.
>Bloating structures with redundant data IS good for cache locality?
Oftentimes it's better to cache something instead of chasing pointers, especially when you do it each frame.
>>146318802
>That makes me want to kill myself.
you can't kill yourself, unless you just like make game

>>146318916
You're only deleting the memory pointed to, not the entry in the collection.
The shield cube was changed to an actual shield model, along with the mouse cursor getting some changes to fit the new camera.
I gave it a laser pointer to help with depth, and I added smoke puff particles to come out of the tank cannons after a spike ball is shot. I'm also following acceptable color templates from a generator that makes a random set of only complementary colors to go together for each level, but if I'm still off with my colors let me know.
Oh and I removed camera motion blur and slowed down the camera speed.
>>146318916
You need to use items.erase, delete only deallocates the value, it does not remove the pointer from the container.
>>146319098
oh right, that makes sense, im dumb.
he hasn't posted that in a while though.
>>146319059
There are literally no prerequisites to dedication. You just fucking do it. Anyone can do it. Wishing will take you nowhere.

You really need to fix the general clarity.
Hard to tell when you're in danger/ on the same path as something. Even with the grid.

You wrote "JAM" twice.
>>146316281
I didn't touch code from June '15 to Feb '16 and after the few weeks in Feb I haven't touched code again.
I still keep coming back here and I don't really know why.
Just this week I started a new Unity project, picked up a bunch of placeholder assets, cleaned them up and tested camera angles. And then I saved the project and closed Unity.
I think the problem is somewhere other than coding.
Is anyone else starting to feel like their morals are holding them back? Like maybe this whole time you've been a sucker, fooled into believing you should do the 'right thing' and not take rubes money?

Nothing wrong with implicit as long as it's inferred from what you're doing and not simply assumed.

Your morals only 'hold you back' if the direction you want to be heading is making money by any means.
If that's your definition of success then you don't have morals.
>>146319935
the amount of shit you can casually omit in C is actually staggering though
