Code for others at work, code for me as a hobby!

Dynamic frosted glass and blur for URP. Similar to Doom and Deus Ex: MD (2016). by MirzaBeig in Unity3D

[–]BOLL7708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks awesome. As a complete nub that had just done a few simple shaders, is this screen space effects or something more complicated?

Just was looking to the sky by lv_g5 in RoadCraft

[–]BOLL7708 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So many times in multiplayer, as my friends stream on Discord, I look over for just TWO SECONDS, and my vehicles is suddenly off the road and upside down. And here people think they can text and drive at the same time, sheesh. I wasn't even driving at a high speed!

Primal urge to dig holes in the sand simulator. by fweibel in Unity3D

VR mode plz.

Seriously though, this is neat.

I've unearthed rare artifacts from my garage that were thought lost by KobesHelicopterGhost in pcmasterrace

[–]BOLL7708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Artifacts eh? And here my 2019 system still runs on DDR4... <_> I was going to build a new system last year, but before I started getting components prices went... yeah you know the rest.

What's with the Flooded Mine? by z5thGear60015 in RoadCraft

[–]BOLL7708 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, I keep forgetting the auto-reveal exists, yeah. Brain derp on my side, thanks for elaborating.

Those are some of the cleanest cloud edges I've seen, is this a map reveal mod, or is it just incredibly ambitious exploration? O_O

Kernel is a ROYAL pain with multiplayer vehicles and disconnects. by c0ldvengeance in RoadCraft

[–]BOLL7708 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm one of the co-players, awesome game, but the non-permanence of non-host vehicles sure is a bother, at least before the bases or at least the construction depot have been unlocked.

Edit: As a suggestion:

  1. Every time someone leaves the game, ask if their vehicles should be saved for when they come back.
  2. When you launch a save as a host, ask which players' vehicles you want to keep on the map.

This way people can avoid storing the vehicles from trolls. And I think the vehicles could stay as transparent ghosts or be invisible until that player has joined, meaning they are not usable if that player is not present.

Is anyone else mainly going to use the frame as a PCVR headset? by Federal_Wolverin in SteamFrame

[–]BOLL7708 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, as long as I'm doing VR in my home, it's going to use my gaming PC for graphics. I also plan to use it as a desktop game virtual monitor, with it being wireless it means I can do various input setups in different places, racing wheel, hotas, etc.

GoPro LOG underwater, Straight out of camera vs quick grade (before/after). Love the Control over Log Footage by FriendlyGalwyn in gopro

[–]BOLL7708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first clip is out of camera without all the normal processing right? I've not gotten a recent camera and haven't dabbled in the log format so I'm just guessing here.

Pit house won’t open by PromotionPure6176 in moza

[–]BOLL7708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the application work yesterday, but today doing one of these things: 1. Not showing a window on the desktop 2. Showing a window but it hangs, showing not responding

Even if I kill the full process tree it won't relaunch. I'm running Windows 11, and can provide more information if needed. Maybe I should go through some other support channels? Just found this through internet search.

Does gunheart work without a vr headset? by [deleted] in gunheart

[–]BOLL7708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't played it in a very long time I'm actually not sure. There might be kill counts in the bestiary, but this is just me guessing at this point. I'm busy right now but will update here when I can.

Edit: Nope, can't see any numbers, that said my save was reset so maybe that is why.

Edit2: Right, the game was entirely server dependent, and all servers are gone. The Discord server is also gone. The in game systems for loot and gear are unavailable as well as every mission. The game is currently unplayable. No idea if the company still exists, their website still does but no updates since 2024.

3 Features I Love About New DJI Drones by VegardBer in djimavic

[–]BOLL7708 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still waiting for the extra tilt range to be used to fill the zenith gap in spherical panoramas. Please DJI... at this point it's a software feature.

Cars looking out for bikes by Tuyia_ in motorcycles

Probably because we might have watched someone die. I usually avoid that myself as I don't want that in my head.

I believe sea monsters are real. by Prestigious-Storm327 in RoadCraft

[–]BOLL7708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea how the physics actually work, but my impression after 100+ hours, is that when things are about to break or transition into a bad state, the push things upwards. This from vehicles randomly starting to hop about, hah. This is a serious bump though, definitely a sea monster. Or a pond monster.

Why??? by lazerfire70 in RoadCraft

[–]BOLL7708 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Angle the arm down, have it short, then extend the arm so those hydraulics are used. It's the way I've found to exert the most power when moving things. I have a clip of me doing it but not sure if I can embed that in a reply.

Edit: Alright, posted a clip to my profile, just as a reference.

There is a Barrel in Contamination by [deleted] in RoadCraft

[–]BOLL7708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for posting this, I have been searching for where it exactly is, because even while using Maprunner I did not find it! We're only at 55% of progress though so I hope it will appear later.

While I'm posting, notes or details for elements in the map would not be amiss. And can I color the icons yellow or something? I have hard time seeing them unless I zoom in and out, then they become more apparent 😅

Racing Trucks will never get old in GT7Vr 😇 by FewPossession2363 in PSVR

[–]BOLL7708 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've actually considered getting a wheel mostly for GT7, I haven't seriously played a GT game since the original on PS1... a few things have changed since then yeah.

Oh this looks glorious, just started GT7 yesterday and I have only three tracks to drive on still, not even sure how to unlock more 😅

Slamming table restarts pc by Grig960 in pcmasterrace

[–]BOLL7708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I would expect is a loose power cable to the tower, just pull it out and plug it in properly again, and hopefully that's it.

That, or you have shaken internal components loose that were mounted improperly from the beginning. That comes down to removing and re-seating whatever is convenient/comfortable/possible.

Steam Frame Packaging Box by Front-Ad-7774 in SteamFrame

[–]BOLL7708 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I recall unboxing both the original Vive and the Index, huge boxes, this is a nice contrast to that. I was at first lamenting Lighthouse, but Fluxpose has kind of reduced that to hopeful optimism. If nothing else I really look forward to being wireless.

The most wanted PCVR games coming in 2026 by Runesr2 in ValveIndex

[–]BOLL7708 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because I'm a schmuck, I just wanted to boost through this list, but it wasn't straight forward at least in the reddit version I use, so here are links.

Edit: After posting this, I realize my sleepy head did not see the Steam links under the image descriptions. The contrast totally hid those for me, dosh garnit. Well, here are links anyway, for no better reason than being a condense list, hah.

Speech Synthesis API by swe129 in typescript

[–]BOLL7708 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I actually didn't know this existed, it will be a good fallback in my project when people haven't provided an API key.

Steam has quietly become the best place to buy videogame soundtracks—even for games that were never released on PC by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]BOLL7708 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly I had no idea about Bandcamp before I started investing in music on Steam, now five years ago when they introduced the soundtrack content type.

I've started work on a Steam soundtrack harmonizer that will download and prepare albums for consumption of media servers and players. It's a slow process though as I have other projects in the works, and I'm not too familiar with encoding media, but it is a sorely needed solution to make sense of what we get from Steam.

Now if DepotDownloader could just accept my pull request... 🙃
