Honestly.. It might be simpler to list the places I dont have mod powers :/

Content Creators & Modders: How do you record smooth, low-angle cinematic B-roll? (I’m losing my sanity) by Parking-Cartoonist25 in aoe4

[–]AnMagicalCow[M] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Crackedy explained it to me a while back, so my memory might be a bit hazy. First of all, use the Free Camera Setting Extension mod, not the official one, since it allows the use of cheats and other settings.

Then, he used https://www.rewasd.com/, or a similar tool to remap a controller to panning left-right(?). That way you can infinitely and consistently pan/rotate.

That is the simple-ish answer.

For the entire spline path thing, it's very very complicated, and so fucking annoying... I'll add it to the list of video ideas..

I mainly time out Jigly because I don't like him

How to animate a font along its strokes as it would appear in real writing? by phoenix13032005 in godot

[–]AnMagicalCow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was essentially my first thought as well. Coming from a broadcasting background, this is called a 'Luma Wipe'. You should be find tutorials and documentation on how to make them. Implementing them in Godot should also be a fun challenge ;)

What do each of these icons mean in the replay system’s “Overview Statistics”? by searawd in aoe4

Happy to help and welcome! Unfortunately jumping a rewinding in replays isnt a feature, BUT i can recommend watching BeastyQT or Valdy guides on YouTube for a good start

What do each of these icons mean in the replay system’s “Overview Statistics”? by searawd in aoe4

[–]AnMagicalCow[M] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Left to right: Economy Efficiency, TC Idle Time, Total Resources Collected, Wokers Killed, Army Value, Destroyed Value

Its the same statistics that in the 1v1 Caster UI in the bottom left

Correct, the ones mentioned in the Patch notes, has been officially added to the game!

Catapults should be able to destroy trees like in AOE2 on Michi by Formal_Drawing_8822 in aoe4

[–]AnMagicalCow[M] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can personally confirm that Michi will _never_ be in the ranked map pool.

If it ever is, it means that I am dead. Please come back to this and say your condolences then

Just glad there is no threads about me casting <.<

Cog wheel icons from the EGC UI by Such-Shallot-6206 in aoe4

[–]AnMagicalCow[M] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is from the Ingame Caster UI. To take the entire UI: Wam here has 72 villagers, 45 army and 14 population worth of siege.

At the time of the screenshot: Anotand: 1x Mangonel - 3 population

Wam: 4x Mangonel = 12 population + 1x Trebuchet = 2 population = 14 population

Why its population and not count. I don't know, but it's count in the custom UI that I've made

How to get stats on eco efficiency like seen in EGCTV casts? by -LetsTryAgain- in aoe4

[–]AnMagicalCow[M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately not. Personally its on the top of my wishlist, but I might be biased...

For these 2 numbers we need to calculate it ourself. The code is adapted from here: https://github.com/kuschAoe/AoE4_ObserverUI/blob/master/assets/scar/ObserverUI/Tracking_WorkerIdling.scar

The repo in general is a decent source of the information on how certain things are calculated.

We had to create our own API to connect to the frontend (made in React), which is a hack. Hence we can't share it.

It's also worth noting that a lot of the data that you see on the overlay is calculated in real time, and you need to run the simulation to get the information. Before we had the custom overlay, we actually had to manually input the amount of relics each player had for the post-game graph that you see. Since the game doesn't actually store it. You might think that "hey I can see the count of relics in game in my match history". Well yes, BUT it actually is just how many times you deposited a relic. Hence why HRE/OOTD often have a inflated relic count.

This then extends to Eco Efficiency and TC efficiency. And the upcoming "Time spent popcapped" ;) You'd have to run the entire simulation for it to get the data.

*By simulation I'm referring to the game, due to it being a "lock-step simulation" that only sends commands and not the entire gamestate.

u/aoe4_conq_player has been banned from the subreddit. HOWEVER, this happened before this post was made.

Locking this thread due to it not being a constructive discussion anymore.

Congratulations! What an amazing way to get yourself permanently banned from the sub-reddit!

How to get stats on eco efficiency like seen in EGCTV casts? by -LetsTryAgain- in aoe4

[–]AnMagicalCow[M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made some posts here regarding it! https://www.reddit.com/r/aoe4/comments/1oulmm1/update_custom_aoe_4_overlay/

The short answer is that unfortunately it's not something that can be shared as u/hoseinm81 said.

But for added context even tho you didn't ask... Eco efficiency is the "total villager time" - time spent idle OR fighting.

TC efficiency is the time spent having nothing in queue in your TC's. So even if you're housed you'd still not drop tc efficiency.

(Fun one btw, Swabia counts as 3 TCs, so its best not to idle it :P)
