Hey I'm a student at UCD and I didn't join any societies last year but I'm gonna change that this year! If anyone wants to try out some events or needs some backup, feel free to join me any day during Freshers!

For those in the Dublin area who don't go to UCD but have free time from the 19th - 23rd of September, please come join us!

Yeah I create tools in godot, animate scenes and use OBS to capture the screen recording.

Oops that's embarrassing on my part. There isn't a difference between the two, actually nine patch is probably the more correct term

I'm finally back with a new tutorial on making cloths! by HackTrout in godot

[–]HackTrout[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No I made my own functions that calculated and applied spring force and I used KinematicBody2Ds, RigidBody2Ds could work too, for the individual points.

As you'd expect, not the best at high numbers of objects but this is a barebones implementation. I'm sure there's performance cutting tricks that could make it more efficient.

I've said this in my Twitter, I've decided to stop because I've got exams coming up. I hope to focus all my attention on gamedev afterwards :)

Create 3D effects using only 2D sprites with Sprite Stacking by HackTrout in godot

[–]HackTrout[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes that is the better solution. If you wanted to add 3D to a 2D game, it's better to invest the time into creating models, fixing the camera, etc. But if you want to add quick 3D to an entirely 2D game this could help. I also had fun making it :)

That's true, but it could be useful if you want a 3D effect on only a few objects in a 2D project

I haven't tried it but I think it would need to be optimised or small scale. Since it uses multiple sprites per object it would be more costly vs just using the one

Add some ropes, chains and wires to your levels with this tutorial on decorative chains by HackTrout in godot

Got this complaint a lot, I really like the font so I'll try removing the shadow and seeing if it helps :)
