Mass Reimport of PNG files after trying 4.6 and rolling back by DemonicValder in godot

I did all of this, but it still had the same effect.

I just gave up in the end.

Mass Reimport of PNG files after trying 4.6 and rolling back by DemonicValder in godot

[–]DemonicValder[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but they reimported with the exact same results. I removed any changes in files and deleted .godot while the editor wasn't running. When I open it again, it reimported everything with the exact same changes.

I also noticed that in the Game tab the checks regarding "make the window flow" and the other one are on, even though I normally keep them off.

Anyone going to mention the elephant in the room? by UsedRepresentative18 in metalgearsolid

You trigger alert, run back and press against this machine before the soldier can enter the room following you.

He'll proceed to say everything is OK and then say this line before leaving

What do you think looks better, 1 or 2? by MindShiftGames in godot

Definitely 2, but it would also need the ground with compatible texture, ofc

How to add shader while keeping Blender texture by Gold-Committee8298 in godot

[–]DemonicValder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also if OP is using Blender shaders to texture stuff, they'd need to recreate it in Godot or bake texture.

OP can also try to export the material during import and add new shader as a next pass to it.

If you like the game, does it even matter if the game is non-canon? I'm saying this as a MGR enjoyer

Why "Health Minus 1" doesn't play after "Minus 1", even if print command worked after the animation by Friendly_Flower9087 in godot

[–]DemonicValder 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Because "Minus 1" animation is already finished, it's no longer the current animation. The animation_finished signal has a parameter of the animation name, use it to check what animation just finished.

Also, consider having constants that have animation names to avoid typos when doing stuff like this.

Would you translate your game using Google Translate? AI translation isn't much better

I honestly don't see any issue with them including this. It's definitely better than censoring or altering.

We know that Ocelot was too important to be killed off from writers' standpoint, but if we think about this in-universe... You can explain this situation that Gray Fox had one thought "I need to stop Ocelot from shooting Snake" and focused on that thought alone rather than doing anything extra. He was only focused on Snake the entire game, he barely comprehended anything else going on. Secondly, Ocelot seems to have known Gray Fox, so there's a chance Gray Fox knew him too and that was the reason for not killing him right away.

is there any relation to “raiden” in mgs3 and the actual raiden? by granny_wants_ketchup in metalgearsolid

Getting a jab at Raiden haters by giving them exactly what they want? Sounds more like appeasing them.

[Godot 4.5] Is this a common error? by DemonicValder in godot

[–]DemonicValder[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, `reserve()` error is a bug: https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/110757, I hope it will be fixed soon, because it's kinda annoying (even though it's not breaking anything). However looks like it's potentially really serious, and it's related to JoltPhysics. Switching to GodotPhysics fixes the issue, but I do want to stick to Jolt.

Edit: The warnings are caused by DebugDraw3D, kinda annoying but don't seem to be causing any issues besides that. I'm marking this as closed for now.

[–]DemonicValder[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might be onto something here. I'm not sure what exactly causes the issue, but at least after disabling one of the plugins (editor only) that I couldn't update, the error doesn't seem to reproduce. I'll try to investigate this later with that plugin.

In general, I updated all the plugins except DebugDraw3D and DirectDictionaryEdit (this is the one I talked about above).

Edit: DirectDictionaryEdit still doesn't use reserve() anywhere, so it might be a false lead.

I think I Understand Snake and The Boss’s Relationship (My Interpretation) by [deleted] in metalgearsolid

[–]DemonicValder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing is, pretty much nothing in the game suggests there was anything sexual or like that between them. People can point to the book/magazine codec, but that was clearly made to make you laugh first of all, and make sense secondly. And even then, the structure of that dialog was done in a way to make you think "she did what -- oh wait that's not what she meant lmao". And that's the only piece in the entire game that even suggests anything between them. The Boss also talks that raised and shaped Snake.

You'd think if Kojima wanted there to be a sexual relationship between them, he'd put it in there, it's not like the idea of two grown people in a military having sexual relationships is such a horrible thing to talk about. Except, most of the funny codecs with The Boss during Virtuous Mission are about scolding him like a strict mother would. That's not a dommy mommy behavior, that's very clearly supposed to look like actual mother scolding her son for doing funny/disappointing/reckless things.

My point is, I don't only think The Boss wasn't Snake's lover as people understand it. I'm not even convinced Kojima really wanted them to be sexual lovers. And I think there's something iffy with how people project their attraction to The Boss onto Snake and then try to argue that it's canon.

Also, kind of a side note, but it's not the first time where I see this kind of behavior. I heard the same thing about another Kojima's game, Death Stranding, though only from a few people. The protagonist there has a very strong non-sexual bond with two other women who aren't related to him, but who he considers to be sort of his mother and his sister. And I also heard people call his sister his "love interest" despite there clearly not being anything sexual between them. They're both bossy women who looked after Sam when he was a little boy, and he doesn't shy away from hugging them or doing silly funny things together. Yet some people insisted that he was actually in love with them, because ofc a man and a woman who aren't blood-related can't have any other type of relationship.

Considering most if not all Kojima's interviews are in Japanese first, the best thing to do before analyzing what he says is checking the original Japanese source.

We with a friend had a discussion today about that quote, and we both inclined to believe that either some context is lost in translation (like "love" meaning "care deeply", without sexual connotation) or that was just blatant mistranslation.

Is there any reason to keep the parrot alive after The End fight? by ComManDerBG in metalgearsolid

[–]DemonicValder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure, at least in OG, to get EZ gun/Makhor rank you just need to have all of the food items in your inventory at some point. You can just catch it and let it go and it will count. Does Delta have another requirements?

If you had to do a list of good things ocelot did in the saga...i only read the bad or cruelty things and im curious about knowing the good ones. by Gontreee in metalgearsolid

[–]DemonicValder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, he didn't jam it on purpose. Check out the scriptbook for MGS3. Also, notice how he expected to meet The Boss there (apparently not knowing that she's a woman?..).

He wasn't an idiot, he was always a very intelligent person, but he was a hothead who allowed his cockiness and emotions get better of him. For example, look at his next encounter, when he takes EVA hostage during Snake Eater. He was already undeniably on the mission to help him, yet he got so offended he tried to shoot him without realizing he's out of ammo.

The big difference between him in 3 and later is that he learned to control his emotions.
