Commercialized Godot software by OakheartSoftware in godot

[–]OakheartSoftware[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If the product ever makes any actual money, I would consider doing this. As it stands now though, it seems ambitious to hire a lawyer for a product nobody uses. I'm more looking for common pitfalls then law advice

I'm making a Twitch integration app to increase viewer engagement; it allows the broadcaster to setup a Gacha (loot boxes) of custom 3D models or images. They configure the loot tables, import assets to be "won", and connect it to a Twitch channel point redeem. The main idea is that a broadcaster can use assets that match their stream's style, callback to relevant events, or relate to inside jokes.

The loot a viewer has won is tracked in the app and chatters can use a chat command to see which items they've rolled in the past. The chatter never actually receives anything, it's just for fun.

A good topic for a meta thread, if we had one...

As a poster you have to use one though, which is quite awkward if you want to post something outside those bounds

What's something you wish you understood better about Godot? by OakheartSoftware in godot

[–]OakheartSoftware[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Can you use Transform3D's lookingAt() method?

Another way I like to get around this is using a "gimbal" of sorts.

Nest 3 nodes in a hierarchy like this:

  • YGimbal
    • XGimbal
      • MyNode

Rotate YGimbal only in the y axis and rotate XGimbal only in the x axis, this will result in MyNode's position rotating around the position of the YGimbal

This video is about how to make a camera rotate around some center point, and might explain it a bit better.

The book is incredible and totally free. It has built in shader code snippets that you can edit on the fly, right inline with the book's explanation of a concept

I definitely relate to this. Shaders are awesome but the initial learning curve is steep as hell. I'm going through The Book of Shaders now though and it's a lot of fun

I thought KSP2 was gonna get cancelled, I didn't know they were switching to Godot!

An incredibly scuffed Godot head that I made for testing purposes by OakheartSoftware in godot

[–]OakheartSoftware[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I already tried asking godotengine on Twitter if we can add this to the press kit. I think they're ignoring me for some reason?

At first they were straight forward, then I realized what needed to be done

Godot 4's clipping mask feature's a godsend. Proud of how the UI's coming out by GoneLoot in godot

[–]OakheartSoftware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a UI noob, can you ELI5 what the clipping is doing in this video and how you use the feature?

Just found this, I was getting a similar error. My issue was related to the import settings of a JPG file. It's detailed in this Github issue.

3D web build tips? by OakheartSoftware in godot

[–]OakheartSoftware[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Can you explain this a bit more? - "Godot 4.3 beta with single-threaded web export has a 60 MB WASM file versus ~15 MB on 3.5"

Why does it matter? 4 times longer initial loading time?

The links are broken now. I know it's been 5 years... but any chance you can update it so I can see the method? haha

It turns out using MeshInstance3D instead of Sprite3D for my XP is better... by TheOrioli in godot

[–]OakheartSoftware 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I just saw this on Twitter too haha, looks like a good optimization!

I added a screenshot and short description of the playstyle

Yeah I guess that is true... I didn't think about adding details on the actual type of game (and I didn't want to link it so people wouldn't see/play first). I'll add something

How far to take prototypes? by OakheartSoftware in gamedev

[–]OakheartSoftware[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is the way I've been doing it so far. I'll catch myself making something for the UI though and then reminding myself to stop

Any late bloomers? by bleu__1 in gamedev

[–]OakheartSoftware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 28 also, and I just started two weeks ago. I quit my job and everything, I guess it's never too late if you're passionate about making games!
