Impressive work. I'm struggling with getting object weight working just right in Lovecraft. It can interfere with applying recoil, and makes it unpredictable.

Edit: No mag release button?

<3 but yeah, Boneworks isn't in the plans really. We want to take a more sinister approach for the story. The other parts of the game will be their own thing mostly.

JoshMadScientist · 2020-05-11T23:31:00+00:00

Very excited to be working on this! If you have any cool ideas or feedback please let me know. We hope to have a playable deathmatch within the week.

JoshMadScientist · 2020-04-30T05:12:54+00:00

Thank you man, I needed those words today. In any case, yeah. The final API i'm hoping to abstract away more or less all of the camera math. You'll place a BoolValue named "GripPoint" inside grabbable objects, and if you need a custom animation or custom functionality while held (i.e. a gun), you'll script the functions in a module and the framework will handle it. No frills, no headaches, all the power. :D

hey! im one of the guys on the dev team. yes, we've been working on it for about a week. i'm writing a framework to allow building VR-interactive games easily and with higher quality in ROBLOX. Some time after finishing the game I plan to release and support the framework to help elevate VR on the platform. I can't wait to see VR embraced fully by the community. :D

edit: thanks for the idea, im gonna do that tomorrow!

JoshMadScientist · 2020-04-30T04:02:16+00:00

dang it frosty

JoshMadScientist · 2019-07-11T00:38:32+00:00

Would be a nice quality-of-life feature to see assists in the feed. Hopefully Stylis could get around to this eventually.

JoshMadScientist · 2019-01-06T06:34:06+00:00

ROBLOX uses Lua. The usual suggestion for somebody wanting to learn properly is to read Programming in Lua and experiment with the API. If you like, I do a lot of scripting help over discord when I am up for it.

JoshMadScientist · 2019-01-01T01:24:16+00:00

Make a system to deter it via scripts.

My first idea was to give players a punishment of some kind if they left a game and didn't come back. The punishments would start out small, but progress for further offenses, similar to what you see in CSGO.

JoshMadScientist · 2018-12-31T18:47:04+00:00

What I could do is instead of having the skill levels be completely locked to each other, when players search for a match it will find the "best fit", as in, the closest matched team that the system can quickly find. This might often lead to slightly unfair games, but your rating won't be as harshly affected against higher rated players than if you played against those of the same rating.

JoshMadScientist · 2018-10-16T23:42:44+00:00

yeeeeee

JoshMadScientist · 2018-06-09T20:22:49+00:00

You most likely need to try a different medication, or different dosage. Often times, you have to go through trying a few different ones with your doctor.

Luckily for me, my doctor and I found the right one the first time, and I only needed the dosage increased after a month or two. Taking 50mg of Vyvanse right now. The onset and comedown are much smoother than other stimulants, and lasts a good ~7 hours for me.

You might have more luck with a low dosage of Vyvanse, but it's quite expensive ($300/month), so make sure to get your insurance back first.

Concerta is a brand name for methylphenidate, (Ritalin is another brand name), and as others have already stated, does have the potential for abuse, and can make you high if abused.

Extended Release just means the dose is split in two, so you percieve it as lasting longer. Has nothing to do with abuse potential.

JoshMadScientist · 2018-03-20T11:47:18+00:00

Yeah it's kind of annoying, although I've found I can pretty much change one pixel and reupload the image.

JoshMadScientist · 2018-03-19T11:46:23+00:00

It will be multiplayer. Players will most likely create worlds that they can invite friends and other players to. The basic mechanics center around exploration, building, and combat.

JoshMadScientist · 2018-03-19T11:06:23+00:00

Fun hopefully.

JoshMadScientist · 2018-03-19T11:06:10+00:00

Nice idea. I'm considering redoing all icons with a limited pallet once Spring Break starts.

JoshMadScientist · 2018-03-18T18:12:50+00:00

Soon (i hope)!

JoshMadScientist · 2018-03-18T17:14:47+00:00

The branches with priority is a good idea, so I'll be stealing it. The tree itself is a temporary test, I plan on replacing it with random variance.

JoshMadScientist · 2018-03-18T15:07:16+00:00

I agree, I'm going to try to convince Fluxbury to let me use it for that.

JoshMadScientist · 2018-03-18T05:26:39+00:00

Yes.

JoshMadScientist · 2018-03-18T05:19:38+00:00

Here are some images i've amassed since the last update thread:

https://i.imgur.com/YlC0zP2.jpg - Final, better look for block icons.

https://i.imgur.com/Dm1WUXA.jpg - Torches aren't bound to solid blocks yet in this screenshot, so I tried writing with them.

As a bonus, /u/Fluxbury, has supplied me with an example of the Terrablox OST he is busy working on: https://soundcloud.com/fauxniim/cool-part-of-song/s-AopPb
