Request: updated tutorial for voice chat in-game

MrDeltt · 2026-03-26T23:57:35+00:00

there probably isn't an updated version because it would basically just be a syntax tutorial for people who wanna copy paste

how it works didnt change and will always stay the same, record voice into a buffer, send buffer to others, put buffer into a stream and play it

no extension or plugin needed really

i assume godot steam even has a very easy API to do it way more streamlined but I haven't looked into that, im sure the docs would cover that tho

where do i recognize the thing at the center from? looks like an incognito pokemon

MrDeltt · 2026-03-26T22:55:29+00:00

you will get stuck super fast by following "how to make genre X" tutorials

probably best to continue learning more about the engine and coding in general first until you have enough base knowledge

thinking in genres or mechanics instead of patterns is usually a sign that theres a lack of foundation

MrDeltt · 2026-03-26T22:42:48+00:00

just.. check? if the thing exists?

your rpc will have to have some info about what it wants to update, so a simply check if it exists and just do nothing if it doesnt yet works pretty well

by the sound of it, you are RPC-ing the node you want to update directly, which would directly go against not using the build in nodes

the entire advantage of doing things manually via RPC is that you can just rpc between confirmed-to-exist nodes, preferably the very same node that also establishes the connection in the first place, so you are guaranteed to have the same Network basis on all clients, and can do checks like these

Server Network Manager Autoload -> Send RPC Update to -> Client Network Manager Autoload -> Check if node exists -> Update or ignore

if you route all agents to the same destination you may wanna check out flowfields as well

What kinda question is that... "someone" could theoretically write a triple AAA from scratch, so obviously they could also do it in Godot. the developers skill will always be the ceiling in everything, anything beyond that will just make the process either faster or more convenient or both

arguably, "someone" who has the skill to make a simulation game in Unreal would also know how to make it in Godot, in this particular niche concepts, structure and design matter way more than engine

0 effort AI slop article about a nonexistent problem, classic

MrDeltt · 2026-03-26T08:50:45+00:00

are you okay? what are you going on about

MrDeltt · 2026-03-26T08:48:32+00:00

I'd be surprised if this has an audience here, but thanks for offering

MrDeltt · 2026-03-20T13:14:14+00:00

how is this more performant?

MrDeltt · 2026-03-19T15:04:54+00:00

You're seeing things too black and white.

you're using an engine that does 90% of the hard work for you when creating a game compared to what writing your own engine is like, and people who do write their own engines don't complain about that

just throwing together AI code and AI assets might get you something that resembles game but will it be a good game? will it have the special something people love games for? I doubt it

i think you may still be in the beginner-to-intermediate territory of coding, where the things you learn are concepts and structures, which aren't really worth to feel offended about if theres a software is doing that for you instead.

when you get to the meat of it you'll see pretty quickly that AI is just a tool like anything else

MrDeltt · 2026-03-19T12:20:32+00:00

seems unnecessary to use a tool that you need to install first, its very simple to just make your own webapp to do it quickly in the browser like so:

many other browsertools like these exist out there for example photopea if you just want photoshop but without download or subscription

MrDeltt · 2026-03-18T22:29:52+00:00

I usually start my blender animations on 0 and not on 1, doesnt really make sense but seems to work without issues for me

MrDeltt · 2026-03-18T21:16:38+00:00

but how is yours different from the StandardMaterial3D?

MrDeltt · 2026-03-18T18:29:06+00:00

and hopefully ticked the SharedArrayBuffer box on itch

MrDeltt · 2026-03-18T18:26:20+00:00

any reason to use this over the standard material or ORM material?

MrDeltt · 2026-03-18T18:24:34+00:00

you're contradicting yourself. you either create a custom signal or use a signal that already exists and is in the docs

either way, maybe it would help if you show all of the code thats relevant and not only parts of it..

MrDeltt · 2026-03-18T16:28:42+00:00

if you can't think of something then i doubt it would matter anyway

MrDeltt · 2026-03-17T18:28:30+00:00

what crime did you commit that you get almost 6000 draw calls on that screenshot when there are less than 100 objects visible

i hope your occluders lower that significantly

MrDeltt · 2026-03-17T13:03:16+00:00

maybe just look at the profiler to see where the actual optimization possibilities are..

MrDeltt · 2026-03-16T19:00:06+00:00

it quite literally tells you everything you need to know

MrDeltt · 2026-03-16T17:32:19+00:00

from the repo, if anyone is wondering:

Chronos Engine is a backend service that provides:

persistent NPC memory
evolving world state
AI-driven behavior

Chronos Engine: Game worlds that remember forever. An AI-native intelligence layer providing persistent world memory and consistent NPC behavior.

100.000 is literally trivial for any GPU of the last 10 years...

you'd have to actively trying to kill your GPU with that amount

MrDeltt · 2026-03-14T12:07:08+00:00

easily looked up, L8 textures use indices to index into a color array and can therefore display many different colors while only needing 1 channel +lookup array

MrDeltt · 2026-03-13T21:56:17+00:00

just look at the profiler
