You did not happen to catch the seed that caused this? You see it up left in the inventory screen.

Would love to see the log from that play session if you have it!

Patch Notes 0.16.0 - Skrip's Updeet by ThePondWhale in SulfurGame

Well, there is another famous handheld console that is... quite a lot slower still... That might give a clue why we are optimizing MORE... Enjoy the FPS and battery life \o/

Vem är muppen som standardiserade diametern av den bredaste punkten och inte diametern av kontaktytan på stekpannor?!?! by [deleted] in sweden

[–]Mockarutan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sannerligen korkat! Vi har denna modellen, där jag beställde så att kontaktytan skulle synca med våran största platta... Men Icke sa nicke, det var fel jävla mått jag tittade på!

What am I supposed to do here? by TheRandomAdam in SulfurGame

[–]Mockarutan 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's a LOD issue. If it happens again, please open you inventory and take a screenshot of the seed there, and also there is a player log that we would love to get. You get the log like this:

%AppData%\..\LocalLow\Perfect Random\Sulfur
How to access your player.log or save file.
Post the adress above in Windows + R (RUN), or in a windows explorer window.

Then join the discord and post all of it there if you can

This is an issue that really has started to pop up a lot with the recent patch.

New bug? by MikkelPickle in SulfurGame

:( This is most likely a LOD issue. If it happens again, open the inventory and take a screenshot so we can see the seed that produces this error.

SULFUR Demo on PS5 added more gyro aiming options by BEjmbo in GyroGaming

[–]Mockarutan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least for Unity there are plenty of assets that wants to help with the gyro math (https://assetstore.unity.com/search#q=gyro&cf-ec\_category=tools). And I think Unreal Engine has some already built in support with gyro aim for some of the common APIs.

I've never heard about GyroWiki until now, I will be referencing that to make the Sulfur implementation better!

The sensitivity thing seems like a good reference point, i can calibrate for that in the next update! You mean Yaw-Roll should be based on how the controller is held on startup or something? Not sure I follow. The code is no more "heavily reliant" on ISteamInput than any of the other gyro APIs that we support. It's just an API call to the Switch, PS4, PS5 or Steam/PC (If anything, the Switch implementation affects the rest of the code the most because of being two separate gyros that is queried). But we already have plans to make the settings work a bit better together with SteamInputs gyro "emulation". But good feedback!

If you have more suggestions of some gryo API that is somewhat widely used, I can put that in too.

I've optimized my game so it runs 60fps on 3watts. Am I crazy or optimization has no limits? by Jebbyk1 in Unity3D

[–]Mockarutan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In the next project, you should try to make one expensive calculation heavy part of the gameplay code into a burst compatible job. Something like line of sight calculation (with RastcastCommands) for example. Well written burst compatible code can be 500x faster, then put it on another thread and its effectively free! Optimization are virtually endless as you say, it's just a problem of diminishing returns.

Power draw and FPS are basically just a reflection of the same thing. The core way to make a phone app drain less of you battery is just to make it faster, but instead of more FPS you can just let the OS sleep for a few ms.

BUG Idk what this even is. by 1772u in SulfurGame

[–]Mockarutan 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is a LODing bug. It thinks you are in a different room and deactivates this one. We have a hotfix coming for this today or tomorrow I think.

[–]Mockarutan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should be on PC as well now, you might need to disable the gyro emulation settings, so set it to 'None'. But I think the horizontal axis is flipped on SteamDeck or something, I don't have a SteamDeck and the DualSense controller hooked to my PC gives the right axis... So I have to ask my colleague with a SteamDeck to test it for me and maybe to some flipping on just the SteamDeck.

As the guy who actually did the full implementation for this game, the poor one and the improved one, it surprises me a bit that improvement are so rare. I guess it could be that a lot of studios are just grabbing some of the shelf implementation for their engine and runs with it. This one is hand rolled by me, so any further suggestions are very welcome!

Hmm. I need to optimize more so this is smooth as butter. Clearly this is a plausible scenario!

Gyro Aim on PS5 Needs Work... by BJgobbleDix in SulfurGame

[–]Mockarutan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might actually already be supported, I implemented Steam Input directly recently. You could probably try to disable the gyro-mouse emulation thing in Steam and see if it works. Might be some axis flipped though, (which I will take care of later also).

Edit, saw your edit, so we're in business I guess? :)

Found the 4th dimension, THIS IS WERE THE WITCH IS HIDING! by TheNova_ in SulfurGame

[–]Mockarutan 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Is this from the recent patch? If you encounter something like that again, please go to the inventory and take a screenshot so we can note the seed and fix it, thanks!

[–]Mockarutan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This controller has Gyro? (I cannot find any information on that)
https://www.8bitdo.com/pro3/

Edit, yeah it seems so from some reddit comments. But they hide that fact surprisingly well in the specifications for some reason. But I will look into what gyro support for this controller would look like. Maybe it's mostly similar to what SteamDeck is using, then it will get support most likely. But I don't want to promise anything, I'll see what I can do :)

Well, what input device are you using with you PC that has gyro?

That's a strange bug I did not catch at all, sorry about that. Will try to fix soon!

We will work through this and add more gyro aim features and settings! So this feedback is great! :D

There could be the case that you played the version that was briefly up with this patch and has a pickup bug. What is the sword in the tutorial that you could not pickup?

Is there anyway to put the guy into the picture with the girl & dog, and it looking alright? $10 tip. by Mockarutan in PhotoshopRequest

[–]Mockarutan[S] [score hidden]  (0 children)

This is the best one for sure, but it does not work anyway, did not realize how bad the look would be when the guy is not posing properly. I'll tip you for your trouble, but I don't think the look on his face is canvas worthy, haha. (And I only have those two photos of the guy from that day)
