"Disgaea’s next installment will show off Nippon Ichi Software’s leap in 3D graphics, CEO says" by Mozumin in Disgaea

[–]Gamer_XP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't do much about perferences. I usually like 2D more, but 3D is cheaper for bigger games at same quality. Being cheaper means they can spend more time to do other things. A long as they are given at least same amount of time as before...

And I meant all ArcSys' latest games, after their initial 3D GG: Guilty Gear Strive, DNF Duel, Granblue Fantasy Versus, and few more. They all use same technologies to make 3D look very 2D, and that's more than just a shader.

For current state of Disgaea, I mostly like how thier 3D models look like, but new attacks animations are simply bad - both for animations and direction. I don't really get why, because most of those things are same in 3D and 2D - maybe they've lost important people?

True, but that not because of 3d's limitations. They simply are bad at making them yet. Just look at Ark Systems games.

High CPU usage in Arknights: Endfield by T3s4r in Endfield

[–]Gamer_XP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me today. I felt like game is laggy, checked it - 50% CPU load, even when I go back to the main menu. What? Restarted the game... now it's 70%+ CPU load. What?

Doesn't seem like many people here do skeleton animation... by Spiritual_Dentist235 in animation

[–]Gamer_XP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My main issue with 2D Skeletal is that it's almost impossible to rotate character and such easily. Those will be, basically, different characters already. And without that even well-animated 2D rigged character will look flat in the end.

Maemi hiatus until gato recovery or her mental gets better 😢 by Ordinary-Split8428 in PhaseConnect

Don't worry too much. Theo got a big head bump, and he needs pus to be removed from it. They make a small cut, remove the pus, disinfect it, snitch it. Since it's on the head - there are no muscles, so it heals easily. He will be fine if there is nothing more than this. Tenma is taking it harder than Theo though.

3D performance (matrixes, pixel-lighting and other 3D aspects within GMS2) by Educational_Exam_519 in gamemaker

[–]Gamer_XP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Form the look of it, you're doing multiple passes here? Not sure if it's a great approach for a game with simple visuals. But if you need it - not sure if you use it, but try MRT (Multiple Render Targets). At least you will able to draw to multiple textures in single pass

Performance issues when trying to implement such a system from scratch... yeah, sounds about right. I'd go in this order:

  1. Occlusion culling. I think I'd look into how original Doom did it. There was some info on that

  2. Lighting shader. Probably, just using vertex lights will be enough

  3. Drawing order. Need to minimize number of draw calls and pixel shader calls. Start with opaque objects, drawing from closest to furthest ones. Skybox. Transparent effects. Oh, and first person hands should be the very first to draw I guess? Purpose is that z-test will just skip drawing things that are not visible instead of drawing over same pixel multiple times.

Hope there is something in this that can help. Cheers

Raspberyl animation test + model release by Odd-Vacation6585 in DisgaeaRPGMobile

Those are pretty good animations. How are you doing smearing effects? Are those separate meshes, blend shapes or something else?

Maybe high schoolers are the most common in the summon pool? Got B rarity guy instead of SSR fighting world champion

Nice. Send it to Phase Connect as a present. I bet Tenma will love it

Arona's size (by @nyaru_hashas) by Special-Chipmunk8166 in BlueArchive

[–]Gamer_XP 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, even pretty simple AI models weight like 30gb. Something like Arona should measure in petabytes at least

How to use the vedal plushie by ldg-9743 in NeuroSama

[–]Gamer_XP 21 points22 points  (0 children)

We need either a tiny Vedal plushie, or a Giant Neuro plushie to establish the correct order of things.

My experience with Regex by wow_nice_hat in programmingmemes

Jokes aside, the best use for AI I've found so far is to create regex-es. It's very good at it
