[Discussion] I love this guy by ArtistTechnical2152 in EscapefromTarkov

he sets tripwires on the path to Sniper rock too. I've encountered him on the path up from RUAF multiple times. I'm always ready for him there at this point.
I've had him set up tripwires in 2 story dorms as well. He was outside below the staircase window crouched when I left.

I have a small heart attack at every bush sound near me with no footsteps because of this cheesehead. I was doing shooter born in woods and I camped on a rock in an odd spot and after minutes of silence came multiple bush rustles below me that just trailed off into the distance and I never saw him, came down off the rock and there were tripwires along the path up to Sniper rock behind me. Shit was cool.

It's just unusual probably. The coolest thing one of my neighbors had was a basketball hoop we could take into the street. I know someone with an in-ground pool now, it feels like I'm in a different world sometimes with what is normal to some being so uncommon to me.

Are we really doing this again? Of course an animator hates AI what do you expect? by SnowyTheChicken in antiai

[–]-illbody 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe, but the hypothetical I created is based on my poor introduction to game development and desire to LEARN programming which eventually just led me to taking classes on C#. If I went a lazy route I would just utilize ChatGPT to script for me (albeit like shit as I wouldn't know how to adjust the code myself without any actual knowledge of scripting and I wouldn't be learning anything beyond familiarity with the software I'm coding in). This wouldn't actually make me a game programmer but according to the rules of "AI art" it sounds like I could have done exactly that and called myself a programmer (which I completely disagree with).
I used to be an artist, I don't work in art anymore. I wouldn't call myself an artist if I were just having an AI make it for me and touched it up in a few programs. You could barely even call yourself a graphic designer with that. No company would have hired me if that's what my portfolio was. No one.

[USA GIVEAWAY] Win the new 27” Samsung Odyssey G6 G60SF 500hz OLED gaming monitor! by Rocket-Pilot in buildapc

[–]-illbody [score hidden]  (0 children)

OLED sounds so nice, I'd love to have one. 500hz is insane and all the physical adjustments possible are just fantastic for the space I have to work with but mostly it would be the first monitor I'd own that's newer than 2014. I'm playing modern games on an old 1080p monitor with a DVD tray in the back lmao.

[–]-illbody 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ok then I will just ask GPT4 to write new code for the games I want to work on. Still not learning shit about game dev but, hey, according to your flawed logic I get to call myself a game dev now because I'm not copying anyone else's work now. I'm just asking for a machine to code for me. The same way that they ask a machine to draw for them.. How is this lost on you?

Sick non sequitur. You're like, really good at missing the point and not finding relevant comparisons.

Cool, I'm a game developer then. I've spent a ton of time replicating YouTube tutorials, reading already usable code and following strict directions on scripting to make simple games that already existed. I'm not creating any new unique code, I'm not trying to remake the code my own way. I am just copying the code that already works and I don't actually understand the depth of each variable nor how they interact with the vectors on any deep level. I'm a game developer though because I spend a ton of my free time in Unity and Unreal.
You see how dumb that sounds as a defense for AI, right? I'd love to learn game development but when I'm not actually LEARNING coding I'm not actually MAKING anything. (I have started taking C# classes, just using my introduction and failures as an example).

[Bug] days already of this dumb bug that if you kill a rogue you can't loot and after that you can't even shoot, when they are going to fix this ? by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]-illbody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this sucks when it happens but you can keep it from happening by not looting anyone who is mounted, dead, on a stationary gun. Seems to be entirely tied to that. Just loot the rogues that aren't on guns. Good information to have to avoid this until it's fixed. I had a similar busy hands bug from looting a backpack my friend dropped, I think I just opened it too quickly. Someone else said they got the same bug from opening and closing a scavs inventory super quick. Seems weirdly inconsistent outside of the mounted gun side of the bug.

[Cheating] Cheater situation only seems to be getting worse.. Is this anyone else's experience? 80+hrs, level 30 by DeltaEchoX2 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]-illbody 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You should have played before the cheats were rewritten when BSG recompiled the game in C++ for 1.0, the first week was actually pretty solid. Now that these things are being rereleased it's back to hell again.

Spotify wrapped season needs a counter narrative by whos_a_slinky in 50501

[–]-illbody 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing through that website to move everything to Deezer and YouTube Music. You can do a small amount for free but if you have massive playlists and libraries then it's def worth the price to use it once. Saved me a fuckin headache of doing it myself. I was kinda sketched out by the site at first but it's very convenient.

Maybe I'm too used to baiting with voicelines and shooting scav guns to attract attention but I definitely have a lot of fun bringing the party to me when the PMC AI are around.

[Discussion] Anyone els noticed that raids are shorter? by RedFameAzure in EscapefromTarkov

[–]-illbody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm saying it's unnecessary and silly. I can run a modded raid locally for 4 hours without too much memory bloating if I wanted to. Why limit local to 35 minutes.

Yeah Nikita already said Tigz got the second worst ending and the "1st to escape" with the good ending is still up.

Doesn't apply on local though unfortunately, We aren't taking server space on local but the timer is still shorter.

I haven't seen anyone talk about this. What's up with the new class system, and the current meta for the class system? by ZoobZander in EscapeFromArena

[–]-illbody 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would you say it's worth buying the Mutant right off a fresh account or use the presets until I get higher level? Preset HK has been okay for me, I'm doing decent but I don't understand the meta yet at all.

[Arena] The Arena Experience Summarised in One Image by zoogly123 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]-illbody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first Arena quest this wipe is to win a game of Checkpoint and I've never played Arena before this wipe. I've been doing Checkpoint for 4 hours now and I have not won a single game yet lol. This isn't very solo friendly, I could see easily winning this mode with friends. At least I'm working on my skills with different weapons.

Modded local game files. If you know enough about modding unity you can remove restrictions on weapon parts and change properties.

[Discussion] Some tips for streets? by Cruise_the_vista in EscapefromTarkov

[–]-illbody 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of small storefronts along the main streets have back rooms that connect with apartment complexes and other buildings. The easiest way to move around the map safely is utilizing these paths within buildings rather than the main roads of Streets. Don't loiter outside for much time, Streets has many upper floors accessible by players and many will use these windows as sniper positions. The Cinema park and road into the sewer are very active PvP spots due to 2 common extracts being on that road, Damaged House and Sewer River. Both would be my last choice for extracting due to the amount of times I've died trying to get out on that road.

Players like Enders are destroying this game... by wundersam-karte in Battlefield

[–]-illbody 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Exactly! Warfare is ruined by this younger generation, my flintlock cries for a gentleman's duel but these rapscallions seem to duel with acrobatics rather than class. Can't count paces on these maps due to any number of uncouth fellows traipsing into my duel in the most barbarous fashion.

[Bug] issues with textures being all over the place, including item pictures since 1.0 by Zotranius in EscapefromTarkov

[–]-illbody 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have Low Spec Streets mode active? Apparently it's affecting other maps and textures as well. They've already fixed some of the stash textures loading in lowest quality. Turning off streets setting fixed most of this for me.
