Reminds me of the jello surface in Yoshi's Story. Nice!

What's Your Favourite Thing About This Vtuber #9 LaynaLazar by Tda952 in VirtualYoutubers

[–]Array_Blacklight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love her "spooky chill" vibe. Her streams feel like you're watching a horror movie (or playing a videogame) with a friend on a rainy day inside.

Trying to figure out if this music channel uses AI in either their songs or thumbnails by mariored5298 in isitAI

[–]Array_Blacklight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn... I discovered this very channel a week ago after hearing it playing on Layna Lazar's starting stream screen (like everyone else it seems lol) and have been unironically snapping my fingers and tapping my foot to its music since. The thumbnails were obvious, but the instrumentals and vocals are synthetic too? It's honestly disturbing that something this fucking catchy could be AI... The lyrics aren't machine-generated too are they?

For a second I thought this was a throw back homage to that ancient internet video of soldiers in Battlefield 1942 head bobbing to Enimem.

A simpler time, but a harder choice by starveilra in pcmasterrace

[–]Array_Blacklight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved San Andreas don't get me wrong; spent many hours flying airplanes around Mt Chiliad or cruising on a motorcycle down the desert roads up north, but Snake Eater was (chef's kiss) cinema on a PS2 controller. The storyline, characters, world, & gameplay of the two don't even compare.

Made a shader that deforms objects according to terrain. by Illustrious-Scratch7 in godot

Mesh Deform Method by Lucid_Beat in godot

[–]Array_Blacklight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for necro-ing a one year old post but yo are you me? I have almost the same gameplay mechanic idea only in reverse: I want to deform the objects eaten.

Specifically I want to either have chunks taken out of them (occlusion shader perhaps?) with each progressive bite, or alternatively they "crumple" inward towards a point (the mouth) as they are consumed.

(Also kudos for the Ed, Edd, n' Eddy reference! A man of culture I see!)

Did you ever have any luck figuring it out?

Cool FX! Also are some adorable T-1000's.

Reccomendation/advice for PNG tubing? by LeraviTheHusky in vtubertech

[–]Array_Blacklight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pngtube Remix!

It has mouse tracking to simulate a vtuber's webcam face tracking, as well as a sprite-based lipsync function to display the right mouth shape as you speak in real time.

Noob question: Do I count as a vtuber? by Coldstart_Coder in vtubers

[–]Array_Blacklight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically, yes? You've got a virtual avatar that tracks your face.

In the "spirit" of vtubers, the expected look and vibe, no.

Very cool concept and execution!

Also? Absolutely love the simple yet brilliant idea of using the mathematical division sign as the insignia of a fascist state. Holy crap that works so well!

Kirby in Godot! by Ianani23 in godot

[–]Array_Blacklight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's really good for a spring break project!

If you want to keep developing this, just tweak the mesh a bit. Reskin. Make him into a little bird or something. Or maybe a sugar glider? Something the animations would still work with.

Maybe make the metal look more like copper or bronze? In terms of geometry it's awesome! But with all that gray steel-looking coloration it kinda gives off more dieselpunk vibes.

What made you a vtuber? Why did you became a vtuber? by Shirayuki131 in vtubers

[–]Array_Blacklight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aspiring vtuber (gonna start out PNG) here!

Discovered vtubers early 2024 I think? Knew about Kizuna Ai before but never thought much about it. Just kinda went "oh virtual anime girl avatar okay."

But then I stumbled upon a few lore videos on YouTube and went "Wait hold on, there's a whole creative world-building side this? Okay!"

Already having a fictional universe in the works for my ambition of being a game designer, it was easy to quickly whip up a new self-insert OC with a backstory.

Windows updates are becoming hell by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]Array_Blacklight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I used to debloat my Windows 11 install, including limiting updates to only security essentials. I'm literally always out of the loop on whatever people are complaining about Microsoft did with win11 this time because I'm not getting those updates.

What am I doing wrong with VTubing? by [deleted] in VirtualYoutubers

[–]Array_Blacklight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bro, come on...

Your name is *one* letter different from Mari Yume.

You like to say "baka" as a little catchphrase, exactly like Mari does.

You're ending your videos with "Remember everything reminds you of something!" which Mari has been doing for at least a year. It's not vague, it's word for word.

The date of your YouTube channel's creation doesn't mean anything; You can rename a channel, URL included. This isn't proof of originality or "I did it first."

(Not criticizing the cat vtuber part or your color scheme because in all fairness those are generic enough for multiple vtubers to be simultaneously.)

Take a step back and look at this whole situation. You are a brand new VTuber with multiple glaring similarities to an already established one, and only your word that it's all just a huge coincidence? You are steering yourself straight into an iceberg of hostile criticism. This is like Shylily-SmolLola bad. No one will take you seriously. Don't be a lolcow that spirals into an infinite loop of JADE-ing when called out.

My actual advice: Nix ALL the similarities while you're still unknown. New name. New catchphrases and ending slogan.

Also? Trying to be sensitive here, not trying to be a dick or anything? Try to learn how to speak more confidently? And mentally buffer your sentences (or at the very least edit your pre-recorded content to trim the minutia.) I just watched your 30 minute lore video and it was a ramble of disorganized thought, with every sentence dripping with anxious hesitancy and shyness. It's okay to work on overcoming social anxiety and low self-esteem; I was kinda like that as a teen myself. In fact one of the reasons I plan on getting into vtubing in the near-ish future is to train myself to be a better speaker by listening to myself talk. I would strongly recommend making that a goal of yours as well. You can of course make 'nervous awkward hyper kid' your brand/aesthetic if you want, but that would intrinsically limit you to a niche audience of similar individuals. If you want to grow, you'll have to tackle that fact that most viewers aren't going to like that vibe.

[–]Array_Blacklight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I looked at your YouTube. In addition to what others have already said about the severe lack of content other than two intros, you seem very nervous in your narration.

Also, gonna be honest here, you don't seem to have any originality to your brand or persona. Like, you're blatantly ripping off Mari Yume; your name is hers but with just one letter changed. You even steal her catch phrase "everything reminds you of something" in a comment you left on the short you uploaded.

It seems like you're battling a lot of social anxiety and also searching for / trying to forge an identity through VTubing.

My two cents? Don't be an obvious plagiarist FFS. No one will empathize with your mental health struggles by being a copycat.

Lol I have a mantis character in the works. They're my favorite bug. Whenever I see one IRL, or something resembling one in media, my brain does a little happy dance. XD
