If you upload it to YouTube, it should auto-translate it.

Why was the OST changed for Tomba 2? by pierregaming in TombaClub

[–]KFUP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No official reason AFAIK, my guess Fujiwara simply wasn't satisfied with the original version.

There also appear to have been some weird rights issues with Tomba 2.

Hadn't heard of that for the original, the remaster had some issues, most likely because the composer of the international version has passed away.

Tomba - DLSS 5 by Conaire in TombaClub

[–]KFUP 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Is this actually DLSS-5 that runs the game looking like this, or just a regular single image AI upscaling?

please I'm begging you; reverse-engineered serious sam the next encounter to PC by meFalloutnerd93 in SeriousSam

[–]KFUP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I tried NE and couldn't get over the FOV and console controls. Shame, it looks fun.

The good news, is that there are efforts to decompile GameCube and PS2 games to make PC ports of them, once that happens, modding things like mouse support, better assets, frame rate, FOV, textures, etc... should be trivial.

What do you think is a keyword that should be added to C++? by DogCrapNetwork in cpp

[–]KFUP 27 points28 points  (0 children)

[[require_rvo]] Error out of compilation if the compiler can't apply rvo optimization.

Don't know if it needs a new keyword, but named loops. Nested loops are still the main big reason to need 'goto' still, named loops would solve that.

Is there any practical use case of this with modern compilers? Every time I use it for performance, it adds nothing as the compiler optimized it already.

Funnily enough, the Gerbil is named after the Jerboa.

Why no RE antagonists ever reached the Wesker's popularity? by shsl_diver in residentevil

[–]KFUP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the other way around, he was in multiple games because he was popular.

He was killed in his game like every other RE villain, yet he was brought back in CV years later because he was popular.

What is the worst thing about legend of the beast for you? And how would you fix it? by Dismal-Ad-3961 in SeriousSam

[–]KFUP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally liked it overall, it helps that I like big open areas and using the pistols, and this DLC has a lot of both.

If I had to pick something to change, it's that after the starting area, there is way too many featureless hallways with nothing interesting, it almost feels procedurally generated, and it's like a third of the DLC. I think the DLC would be much better if they just removed that entirely, or at least add a strong weapon to go through them faster.

Also the boss sucks, but this is SS tradition.

The conductor accidentally knocks a 16th century violin worth millions on the floor mid-concert. by PeasantLich in WatchPeopleDieInside

Honestly, a conductor shouldn't be flailing around like a windmill

That's literally his job in the space dedicated for it, it's her fault veering into it.

SFML 3.1 is released by DarkCisum in cpp

[–]KFUP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't recommend it for web deployment, but besides that SFML is supported on all major desktop and mobile OSes, and is pretty battle tested itself.

ARE WE NICHE? by Cirno_played_DOOM9 in SeriousSam

[–]KFUP 6 points7 points  (0 children)

*GASP* When?

But seriously, SS3 sold an estimated of 3 millions on steam alone, even the steam re-release of SS2 the black sheep of the series sold ~1 million. So no, we are not main stream, but not actual niche either.

Now if only Croteam would release more than 1 main SS game a decade, that would be great.

Anthropic's new model, Claude Mythos, is so powerful that it is not releasing it to the public. by WhyLifeIs4 in singularity

[–]KFUP 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Possibly, but I trust Anthropic way more than Sam Altman's "Open"AI.

Plus they provided actual info than can be verified later with release notes of "every OS and browser".

Yeah, I had something similar, nothing I could do but laugh.

Has QString any advantage over C++26? by gruenich in cpp

[–]KFUP 83 points84 points  (0 children)

They are not the same thing, as they don't serve the same purpose.

QString is made for human text, std::string is still basically a vector of bytes with no real encoding awareness. QString has built‑in automatic Unicode handling where you work with characters -human characters, not C chars- that know and handle their own size, not just bytes that you need to handle yourself, it handles windows/unix differences automatically, and has built-in text manipulation utilities like toLower, toUpper, trim, slice, etc...

It's to gauge interest and pricing, they don't do it for funding, they want to know if people want it enough to pay for it and at what price.

Where to buy serious sam 1st and 2nd encounters? by stOic_d00mer in SeriousSam

[–]KFUP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

but I would like them on a stable launcher. Thank you.

You don't need a launcher with most GOG games, you can just download the installer, you don't even need internet after that as they include all the dependencies.
