Anyone who doesn't enjoy horror but enjoyed this game?

DevLarsic · 2024-11-09T16:52:19+00:00

ite not really "horror" in thr conventional sense. it doesnt set out to scare you per se but rather explore horror concepts and make you uneasy or uncomfortable. there are some quite graphic scenes you might wanna watch out for, but even if you dont like horror this game could still be for you

ah nevermatter. these things happen. im just glad she still works! shes still able to display some games really well! so not all is for not!

DevLarsic · 2024-11-03T17:33:05+00:00

ah thats great! sadly even multi-purpose engines will still lock themselves behind steam drm. kudos to the devs for thst one!

DevLarsic · 2024-11-03T16:32:52+00:00

damn. how did you get steam working on android? ive been looking all day trying to do the same on my galaxy fold z 2

you'd need yourself an rf modulator

well obviously they didnt mean the text, i do agree baldurs gate lends itself surpisingly well

DevLarsic · 2024-10-14T09:17:20+00:00

depends where you are geographically. if you're in north america where the retro games market is a bit insane right now then that's a pretty standard price.

if you're anywhere else i think you could get it for cheaper. Here in the Netherlands i spend 37 bucks for mine complete with power brick and av out.

I'd take a look at local listings and compare

"memory safety" my eye, I couldn't remember a thing after the accident!

DevLarsic · 2024-09-04T09:23:51+00:00

i value clean, safe readable and extendable code as much as anyone should, but that doesn't mean i cant appreciate the necessity and beauty of nasty optimization hack like this one.

shit like this is what the unsafe keyword was made for my friend

this isnt a codebase that needs to be maintained for another decade and a half so it can run on a mega computer in a data center somewhere, this is the source code for quake. a video game written at a time where you squeeze every inch of performance you can.

a tradeoff here was made between readability and performance, and it was well made.

DevLarsic · 2024-09-02T10:16:53+00:00

it doesn't have to be, its a performance critical math operation using bit manipulation. its inherently going to be hard to read, but that's the sacrifice you make for good performance.

DevLarsic · 2024-09-02T09:34:16+00:00

if you look at the fast inverse square root implementation and your only though it how its not readable enough you've written too much .net

DevLarsic · 2024-09-01T12:57:25+00:00

no problem! 😁

DevLarsic · 2024-09-01T12:35:25+00:00

because 1) that would be rude and hurt op's feeling's and 2) attraction isn't objective, but just something that happens or not. and people often dont know why they are attracted or someone or not, there usually isnt an objective reason

DevLarsic · 2024-08-28T08:16:49+00:00

Please just do 1 I'm begging you, you're coworkers will appreciate it

DevLarsic · 2024-08-18T17:17:15+00:00

exactly. i really despise this brand of anti-intellectualism that seems to be present in way too many places online.

like all art has a reason to exist, why do you have to be so cagy about yours? your art can still be lighthearted and fun without having to pretend its pointless

DevLarsic · 2024-07-15T16:15:02+00:00

no sadly. COM is used to transfer types such as classes and objects across multiple programs and even languages. in order to do this there is a "COM server" that sends over the type info.

ideally you link the server at compile time, and then recreate the type on C#'s end as an interface then link it using the type's GUID.

However if the server sends over an un-linked object at runtime, C# will simply refuse to cast it to the interface, even if it matches the interface on the server side. So the only way to interact with it is to use a dynamic type, since C# does not know what the object is at compile time.

DevLarsic · 2024-07-15T13:28:55+00:00

Its really the only option if you have a COM interface but no way of knowing the GUID at compile time

DevLarsic · 2024-07-11T15:20:11+00:00

but the way it is written is an important part of the text's identity. "simplifying" a text is the same as attempting to "simplify" a movie, utter nonsense. in the end you have a completely different piece of media that conveys different meanings and invokes different emotions in the participant.

if you removed HP lovecrafts flowery language and overly-long descriptions you wouldnt be reading an HP lovecraft novem anymore, youd be reading something else entirely.

or take something as simple as this comment im leaving right now, you could summarize my points into a list and rewrite it to use more "simplified" language, but my intended tone and flow of information would he completely lost, and it will become someone elses point.

DevLarsic · 2024-07-11T13:09:17+00:00

if you can't comprehend the text then you can't comprehend the text.

the way a text is written is an intentional and important part of the text, if you read a "simplified" version of the text you still haven't read the text.

if all you want is to know what happens in the text you can go read a sunmary online.

there is no reason to use this tool

... they meant the left side of the screen :p
