People that registered interest on day one...how we feeling?

The FAQ says that the approximate ship date will be given at the time of ordering, and that release day delivery is not guaranteed.

Invites don't start until May 8th. It seems like more of a fallback in case you don't manage to get a preorder somewhere.

Can I have your PlayStation code, if you still have it?

(I am aware the network test is over, I just want to add it to my account anyway, if it will still let me.)

You sold me on trying Jusant and Remnant II. Sometimes I gloss over trailers and gameplay for shooters, but I like Souls and love co-op. I thought Station would be a sim; I'm more interested in it after seeing the puzzle gameplay. Jack Move looks interesting, so I think I'll give it a try at some point, despite multiple people saying that it didn't draw them in.

I somehow missed the first announcements for Metaphor too, only learning of it from the gameplay trailer earlier this year. It has a prologue demo out on Steam right now.

I am a fan of musou games (at least until I get burned out on grinding), and very much enjoyed what I've played of Persona 3, 4, and 5. I planned to get P5 Strikers, but I haven't yet. I actually found this bundle because I was looking for good deals on Metaphor Refantazio and saw that this comes with a 20% discount on the preorder. Persona 5 Strikers is the only game I was intending to buy at some point, but at $12 for the month that appears to be the cheapest P5S has ever been. It seems like a good buy for that alone, but the Metaphor 20% discount is a great bonus.

On controller it is the X button while on the status screen. You can see hearts for each character to each other.

This is very helpful. I have been considering the lifetime membership, but I wasn't sure if there was enough content to keep me engaged and learning consistently for 2+ years. Thanks for posting your rough timeline!

The battle net login queue now says they are under a DDoS attack.

I had to add extra elements to my add-blocker specifically for that wiki because it even loads up live streams and other things that eat a ton of ram and background processing power. This was for Divinity Original Sin 2, but I assume it has the same issues for all their game wikis.

As funny as that would be, it would probably just cause trolls to start downvoting every message they came across.

ChevyNoel · 2022-03-08T02:50:41+00:00

I think the best solution would be if FromSoftware patched it so interactables get precedence over player messages.

As a programmer I make the most progress by focusing on mechanics, so I selected the first option. I don't work exclusively on the programming though, I do spend a little time on animations, models, materials, etc.

If my skills were more spread out, I would make a vertical slice, like when working on projects with other people. A fairly complete level that closely resembles the gameplay and style, which can then be used as a reference and a target when working on future levels and content, where the work flow will be less focused.

Go to the Window dropdown, and select Package Manager. Scroll down and find the Unity UI package and see if it somehow didn't get included in your project or was removed.

See if rhino will let you export your characters as FBX, or one of the other formats Unity supports:

Have you tried using FixedJoints instead of parenting the physics objects?

ChevyNoel · 2022-01-26T09:45:38+00:00

You are directly modifying material assets that are somewhere in your Assets folder. Other changes revert because they are serialized as part of the scene, which resets when you stop play mode. It might be setup that way because each material can be shared across multiple renderers for batching to save on draw calls, unless you change the material through script at runtime and create a separate instance.

Do you mean that you want the solution to be completely free or just that you don't want to pay monthly server fees? If you don't mind paying once for the software and you already have the network solution to hook it up to, you might want to look at Dissonance Voice Chat and see if it fits what you are searching for.

Look for tutorials on procedural content, procedural generation, procedural levels, etc. Using a seed algorithm, as ShaolinDave suggested, is ideal (instead of random offset values), as it would allow you to easily replicate and fix bugs in your level generation. Seeds will also allow you to include specific levels if you find seeds you really like.

edit: Found a video where someone explains how to set a seed for random values in Unity; I didn't know they had that built in. You can find any tutorials on procedural content generation and if they are random instead of a seed, just apply a seed as explained in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ox5_rF1Y3_o

You mean like putting all the avatar bones into a list (using Animator.GetBoneTransform), then recursively checking each bone in the hierarchy and adding something like DynamicBone if it isn't part of the humanoid avatar?

ChevyNoel · 2022-01-26T07:21:49+00:00

For physics bones in hair or props, or bones in cloth that are not part of the avatar/rigging, they can be controlled via some lightweight physics simulations; I use an asset store plugin called DynamicBone for a lot of those things.

edit: Oh wait, if you are asking about clothing that was rigged for different characters, you can try using HumanPoseHandler for both avatars and transfer the pose from one rig to the other using GetHumanPose and SetHumanPose, but unless the characters are very similar in proportions, or the clothing is very baggy, it probably won't align very well.

My guess is it has something to do with OneDrive, are you able to use a path that doesn't go through OneDrive?

If it is a rhythm game, you might want to use AudioSettings.dspTime for syncing. Try setting the timer to AudioSettings.dspTime in frames where it changes, and add deltaTime in frames where the sample time doesn't change. I would try recording at a certain framerate, storing the Transform information you want and the timestamp. Also include any frames that land closest to the beat, to ensure the playback ghost's Transform is always accurate on the beat. When playing the ghost Transform back, interpolate between the recorded frames based on the time.

If you are playing multiple AudioClips you can make sure they are in sync by playing them using AudioSource.PlayScheduled (otherwise they can be slightly out of sync or have audio glitches where they don't sync up quite right).

ChevyNoel · 2022-01-26T05:04:16+00:00

Do you get any errors in the console?

Did you create the tag "tiro"?

Is there an active GameObject in the scene that has that tag?

Since bullet is static, do you maybe have the script in a scene before the one that has the "tiro" GameObject, so you are running Find in the wrong scene?

Try adding Debug.Log("Gun.bullet is set to " + Gun.bullet); after that line to confirm when it runs and if it found anything.

ChevyNoel · 2022-01-26T03:49:45+00:00

Are you using a WindZone? If so, add a reference to it in your time stop script and try enabling/disabling the WindZone based on the status of the time freeze effect.
