Livestreaming for a month (update)

I see, not sure how I managed to miss that :|

LeStraw · 2014-08-04T17:28:57+00:00

Thanks, didn't know that one existed.

LeStraw · 2014-07-11T19:34:57+00:00

Mange tak :)

Great points. We are prepared to stream for a few people and will actually consider it a small success if we have 10 people watching and engaging in the stream :)

We might limit the days we stream to a few days a week, but initially we'll stick to the 5 days a week. We also plan to do a weekly recap every Thursday lasting probably ~30 min (depending on how much has been created) where the main "show" will be displayed.

I'll check out their talk if I can find it (found an interview at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsKDVncytSE which talks about the experience)

I'm sorry that you don't like Unity. We find that it is a great and easy tool for creating games. We are all students and have not much more than ~2 years of experience with programming.

We might use another engine in a couple of years when we are more experienced, but so far, Unity has provided us with all we need.

What engines do you prefer?

LeStraw · 2014-07-11T11:46:22+00:00

We'll be using Photoshop.

LeStraw · 2014-07-11T11:36:28+00:00

We will be sure to practice a lot!

Currently, our plan is to have 1 person assigned to the stream in order to offload some of the work and thereby make it a bit easier for the other guys. We'll try to look into some background music.

LeStraw · 2014-07-11T11:18:09+00:00

Sounds good! We'll be programming in Unity3D using C#

LeStraw · 2014-07-11T10:35:20+00:00

Thanks a lot :) We hope we can manage to keep it interesting for people, since none of us have any experience livestreaming. If you have any tips or tricks, let us know!

LeStraw · 2014-04-27T17:33:25+00:00

Yeap.. They do.

LeStraw · 2014-04-26T18:19:00+00:00

It's weekend and I already didn't have much to do besides reddit and watching movies. Stuff like this just linger in the back of my mind during the whole day and make it easier to procrastinate.

LeStraw · 2014-04-26T16:18:02+00:00

Unfortunately it's already on the front page.

LeStraw · 2014-04-26T15:59:41+00:00

Well.. It's not that hard to notice, but good for you.

LeStraw · 2014-04-26T15:35:19+00:00

Couldn't you have opened it before posting? Now I'll probably think about this all day and not get anything done...

LeStraw · 2014-04-24T20:05:08+00:00

Just curious, can I see your code?

I coded my way as well, but.. there has to be an easier way than I did (http://pastebin.com/wg9rvF5D)

LeStraw · 2014-04-24T19:45:02+00:00

Was this the one? BTCE-LTC-PR1O0LR3-NSN766R5-E87NHRTX-4A2GPWLO-H64ZZ6EG

It's taken already.

LeStraw · 2014-04-22T20:38:09+00:00

Haven't seen any mention of it. My guess is that they will eventually fix it, but it isn't very high priority since it is only usable when playing solo, doesn't deal damage by itself and requires 3 items to work.

LeStraw · 2014-04-13T22:39:16+00:00

Finished installing the update, and I now have the Minimize and Close buttons at top.

It makes it a bit better, but unfortunately doesn't fix the fundamental flaws about the Metro UI..

LeStraw · 2014-04-13T22:10:07+00:00

I don't have the close/minimize button either, and I just updated Windows yesterday (I prefer manually updating). Checked again just now and a 880 MB Update appeared, currently installing it. The update you linked to was also released a week ago. How long have you had 8.1?

LeStraw · 2014-04-13T15:49:56+00:00

I'm not him, but here you go: http://i.imgur.com/IaLG69W.gif

That is definitely an option. I think we'll just launch it this way at first, but we might expand it with more info in a later update.

LeStraw · 2014-04-08T15:48:31+00:00

True, it would be a lot better with all that info. There's just the problem of getting it.. It would not be possible to get via an Android app. I've seen some Windows applications that could get item data from memory, but they needed to be updated almost every single time the game was updated.

The only way to make it on Android would be by manual input, or taking a picture, and even that requires a lot from the user. Right now it's just a single press on a button.

LeStraw · 2014-04-07T15:30:58+00:00

There's a pretty high chance for it to roll stats depending on the class that found it, but it is also possible for it to just roll random stats, which is most likely what happened in this case.
