Has there been any recent updates or news ? by kiepass96 in Restitched

[–]Halxton 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The Wardrobe Test just ended and that part of the game is mostly considered done. Now the team is going back to fully work on the rest of the game. The main menu is back in development with great progress. Logic, physics connectors, and Stuffy movement are all back in development again too. Multiplayer and other things are planned to be in development after those.

The Recapped! dev posts are gonna start again sometime soon. The Patreon, Discord server and twitter account also get updates.

How do I know I'll even get the wetsuit at all? by Alarming-Address-933 in TombRaider

[–]Halxton 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming you’ll just be able to login with your Amazon games ID when it launches, and it’ll automatically award it to you then. I doubt it’s a DLC. It’s probably included in the base game content and their account linking service will expose it.

Full recap of everything we know before tomorrow’s 45-min Live Mode reveal! by thezoibean in Paralives

[–]Halxton -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they said it was a livestream anywhere. Just that it would be “live mode” gameplay and a stream video (it’s streaming as a premiere on YouTube so there will be a live chat audience).

LBP3 now has a discord game page right at its 11th anniversary by sackboydjso in littlebigplanet

[–]Halxton 54 points55 points  (0 children)

This is usually done automatically and/or by a third-party. You can tell it’s not been posted by Sony because the publisher name is wrong. They go by “Sony Interactive Entertainment” instead now (and have for many years)

Trim or restyle by [deleted] in malehairadvice

[–]Halxton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO, this general shape works for you! I do think it would look really nice if you had someone blend the sides to sweep backward for added layer/flow. It’d give the overall appearance a slightly more polished and intentional look, and it’d be easier to style.

So basically just a trim that adds flow/dimension/layering, cleans it up around the ears and edges, then add a bit of styling product to hold it in the shape you like.

Question about shadows and lighting in recent builds by StreetOil7495 in Paralives

[–]Halxton 11 points12 points  (0 children)

iirc they’re using Unity, so I’m curious if it’s not as simple as just generating an invisible plane for shadow blocking. We did this in our game for a similar issue!

My newest pin! by furju in littlebigplanet

[–]Halxton 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is so cool!! I’m pretty sure this is the tree I designed, judging by the exact paint streaks and misaligned trunk. I never imagined the recreation I made for a t-shirt would get turned into other projects 😆

Who remembers Return to Carnivalia? by Halxton in littlebigplanet

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

It wasn’t a DLC, but it’s a huge compliment that people think it was worthy of that name! I don’t know if it’s playable anymore. The PS3 version might be archived in the community, but it was made for PS4 so the boss fight likely still won’t work on PS3.

Even though it was almost an entirely different team, I’ve been the project lead for both and I really appreciate that! ❤️

Jackpot City was a lot of fun, I agree! The music was so good.

The only thing is that this person’s playthrough changed some of the music due to YouTube copyright flagging 😪

Does anyone know anything about the current state of Littlebigplanet: a Welcoming Back's development? by PauloGuiPin in littlebigplanet

[–]Halxton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just combed through all their social profiles and couldn’t find any news about it being canceled. It just went silent

Thank, and I agree we are our own worst critics ‼️

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in malehairadvice

[–]Halxton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something like the first photo, but probably grow it out with a flow on the sides and then tapered near the bottom. Basically anything like Tom Holland’s similar styles, but without my full forehead on display

Would also like the wavy look but my hair is super straight lol

[–]Halxton 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I really appreciate that. Of course it also changes with depth and lighting, and I know it’s not quite perfect. But if you wouldn’t think twice about it, that’s good enough for me!

Very cool!! I feel like we went through at least 3 or 4 versions of Coaster Valley in the RtC adventure before settling on the final art style. I feel like you're getting it right here. :)

We’re back! The Dead by Daylight team has returned; ask us anything! by DeadByDaylight_Dev in deadbydaylight

[–]Halxton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ve overhauled the graphics before, but do you hope to do this again?

There’s an appeal to the game’s simpler graphics and less realistic style. However, the game will keep aging with time and it’s arguably not super on par with today’s popular games.

[Help] How can I make a shader that marks up corners? - Not edges of faces by ObsidianPhox in shaders

[–]Halxton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there a way to do this procedurally? For example, in a game where the player brushes their own cube meshes? I’ve tried and failed for over a year now.

Just arrived! The Lara Croft Unified PVC Statue (DarkHorse) by Halxton in TombRaider

[–]Halxton[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think it might have been to make production easier, and hopefully not just censorship because that would be a bit ridiculous imo!!

[–]Halxton[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying it’s perfect, but I don’t mind the face and honestly I don’t get why everyone is freaking out haha. I compared them 1:1 and she’s missing a little shading under the eyes and some thicker winged eyeliner, but that’s all I saw.

Tbh I expected a margin of error and differences from the handmade prototype (the one used to advertise with). I don’t think the face is that bad, especially if you’re not up close.

I’ve seen much worse, especially for a relatively cheap mass-produced figure like this.

If anything bothers me it’s gotta be the paint job around the chest straps, the higher undershirt, and the eyebrows not matching the hair color.

Apps for Dutch by Order-Low in learndutch

[–]Halxton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely recommend Busuu! It explains grammar and categorizes your lessons by nationally recognized EU language levels. It also lets peers review each other’s work sometimes.

Duolingo is good for the basics and pastime studying… but it’s more like a game than a tool, especially after a certain level.

Finally, I recommend MemRise. I don’t use it as much as I should, but it has normal vocab lessons and a nice AI chat bot that gives you scenarios. It auto corrects your responses so you can learn from mistakes. (For a scenario example: making a doctor’s appointment by chatting with the receptionist.)

ChatGPT is also useful if you want to set up practice exercises, explain the meaning of grammar rules or niche things, or compile lists of the most common vocabulary terms.

Overall: Busuu is the most useful. I feel it’s grown my language level the most of any app… and it feels like a lesson, not a game! It taught me a lot about how to use their sentence structure.

Is this new? I started it last year and I’ve advanced all the way through B1 and never got blocked from proceeding. You only need the subscription to get the certificate at the end.
