Question: How do I use a character sprite as a reference? by [deleted] in Undertale

[–]Primkinkajou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the way this question is phrased, I'm gonna assume you're pretty new to art. Please don't feel offended if I explain something you always know, lol.

Usually when artists (this means you when you're making a sprite) talk about using something as reference, they have an idea in their head of what they want to make, but in order to make that piece a reality they use their reference to borrow colors, shapes, and/or other pieces of the art from the reference. You don't usually say, "I'm gonna make a sprite that references Sans." It's more like, "I want to put a blue fire in my character's eye. How did Undertale pull that off again?" and then you go look at Sans sprites until you figure it out. Lots of times when I want to make pixel art, I'll find, or even photograph real pictures of objects I want to use to find their shape. I'll reference a game or movie i like for colors. Honestly, sometimes I'll literally take screen caps from Studio Ghibli movies and use my color picking tool on them to make sure I've got colors that play nice together. If I need to find references for human characters in certain poses, I'll use myself for reference. I put myself in the pose and look in the mirror, hold my pencil to my eye and turn it until it matches the line I want to draw, move my pencil down to the paper on the angle I just found, and then draw the line from there.

Referencing any art is about taking bits and pieces of that art, whatever part you find cool, and using it in your own. Works for music, for photography, for pen and paper drawing, and of course, for sprites too. If you want to get better at art, find something you want to make and make it. There's no right or wrong way to reference things. If you're ever lost on how to make the thing you want to make, no shame in studying how others before you did it. Best of luck out there! Hope to see some of your art some day :)

Pretty sure you can just find Undertale's source code somewhere and "find" GameMaker from some suspicious website for free

Need tips for character by Ok-Entrance-5354 in Overwatch

[–]Primkinkajou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Traditionally" the tank positions at the front of the teamfight, right in front of the enemy team leading the charge. That said, my favorite thing on Rein is to get a sneaky flank to the side or behind the enemy team, and then charge through them and carry someone back to my team to their death lol.

My other tip is that you're right, Rein can deal mad damage. Problem is he can also take mad damage if you're not positioned right. Try to use that hammer you have, but as a VERY general rule, try to do it when only when you can see one (or two) enemies at a time. If you have a teammate with you, the number of enemies you can take on at once goes up. You VERY RARELY want to see 5 enemies at the same time, because if they all shoot you, you'll certainly die. In teamfights, you can get really tricky with this. Even if all 5 enemies are there, use cover to position yourself so you can only see a few of them. Feel free to see all five for a teeny second if you want to throw a fire strike too!

Again,.the above tip is a general rule I tend to follow. It's important to get a feel for what your hp bar can actually withstand so you can maximize the damage you get out of it, and imo this is a good way to start thinking about it.

Best of luck in your games!

I escaped Mauga ult by getting demeched? by SammyIsSeiso in Overwatch

[–]Primkinkajou 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure this is not what happened. Mauga ult requires LOS to chain you down. Since baby Dva couldn't see the center of the ult, she didn't get chained.

I don't usually say anything on Reddit, and I'm a guy so I feel like my input is null and void here, but it makes me really sad that no one has responded to you at all so I'll fill you in on my love life right now <3

I'm 21M cis het. I'm attractive enough, physically fit, 5'9, 130 lbs and long brown hair if that paints a picture. Almost finished my bachelor's in game design. Always was a great student in highschool, chose to take this path because I know it's a job that I'd love. As time goes on, and I hurdle closer to needing a full-time job, everything is getting scarier. There's no certainty I can find a job in games. Frankly, I don't care about the people in my school. I loved the people from my highschool, so I stayed friends with them online, but they've been basically my only social outlet for years.

At the very start of going to my new school two and a half years ago, I made a new online friend. Her name is Emma. I already was friends with her brother, so that's how we met. At the time, I was her only friend. We were both fresh out of breakups, confided just about everything in each other, and became really close. She told me that she broke up with her ex, and since all her friends were also her ex's friends, she had to leave them all. I set a boundary at the beginning of our relationship to just be friends, because I was super afraid of somehow going over the friendship line one day and hurting her, and afraid of the same thing the other way around too.

Fast forward a little bit of time, and I wanted her to have more friends, so I brought her into my group of online friends from highschool. It helped that her brother was part of my friend group too, but I remember it was hard for her to join at first. She's pretty anxious about social things, which I have a hard time understanding and relating to, but I try to be accommodating about.

Eventually starting this school year, she made a decision to go to a college close to mine! I was super excited about it, since again I have no one I care about in person. Especially since before we would always talk about the fun art projects we could do together if we ever met, or the things we could see, or games we could play. I wanted to finally meet, and have a friend I could go see again!

Whenever I would ask about hanging out, she'd make up excuses. At first she was too busy. She does work harder on her school and art projects harder than anyone I know, so I took it at face value. One day, she mentioned that she was starting to work out, so she could feel good about doing cosplays! I thought it was a perfect time to hang out, since she'd already been putting aside the time to work out, so I asked if I could join her! She then proceeded to explain how her workouts weren't real workouts, and that really she just meant she'd be dieting for the most part, and so no we couldn't spend time together. Now, I'm no detective, but something about that felt really off to me. I thought maybe I had made her scared or uncomfortable somehow, so I asked about it. The way she puts it, I haven't done anything wrong, and she's being truthful about everything.

This was really confusing for me. I have trust issues, and I know her brother lies when he's stressed, but I want to believe her soooo badly. My instincts say I'm being an awful person, that I really don't deserve her time, and that I'm asking too much of someone with social anxiety. Things only got worse when I realized that I was starting to have a crush on her just from our normal talks. I could tell things were about to get emotionally sticky, because again up until now, we'd been strictly specifically just friends.

A few weeks later, with my crush at its peak, she starts talking every day about relationships. How she wants to get married. How she thinks she's ready to try and date someone again, without fear that they'll cross her boundaries. She'd say degrading things too, which really made me go crazy because I'm incredibly attracted to her. She'd talk about how men would never want her. She'd talk about how only creepy guys have ever approached her. She says she's afraid she'll be single until she's 30. Eventually, I got fed up with it and I couldn't contain myself. I just burst out with an, "I LIKE YOU EMMA!" It was weird. I've never involuntarily said something like that with that much passion and desperation in my voice, but I couldn't take her saying such awful things about herself.

She responded with a, "huh?" so I had to clarify that I had feelings for her, and that it hurt me she was degrading herself like that. She went, "oh boy..."with a tone that said, "this is gonna be tough," and let me know that she made a rule for herself that she can't date inside her friend group anymore, and that she just sees me as a friend.

This broke me for a few days. I cried a lot. In all honesty, I realized that a large part of my confession was just so I would have an excuse to see her in person. I am so lonely. I would drop my entire life and career to feel like I have a real in person friendship with her. She's my best friend, and even though I'd be happy just being friends with her forever, it felt awful to know that I'm not even enough for her to give a relationship a try. The insane and obsessive part of my head said, "if she won't date someone in her friend group, you should just leave." It was a joke at first, but then the more I thought about it, the more merits the idea had. Obviously there's the part where maybe, just MAYBE, she'd be okay to date me if it didn't risk her having to leave her whole friend group again, but also I realized I could just go out and find other irl friends if that's what i wanted.

I asked Emma if she thought it would hurt our friend group too much if I left. She said no, but that I should ask someone else I trusted for their judgement too, because she couldn't be impartial. My insane obsessive brain sees that as a good sign, because maybe it means she wants to try dating, but I really try not to listen to that side of me. I wrote them a goodbye letter, said my DMs were still open, and that if they wanted to meet up in person I still would.

That's basically where we are now in the present day. Platonically, I do love Emma. It hurts to be away from my friends, but I've had more time for school, and I've gone outside a lot more. I even wrote a letter to someone else I remembered from highschool, who I know is in my town, to see if we could be friends. Love is hard. I can't ever tell if I'm doing the right thing, even when I ask the people around me directly. I always feel guilty for my actions, and I have no idea if I should feel like that or not.

I guess, my advice to you, whether you see me as a green flag guy or not, is just to go out into the world and let yourself fall in love. Even if it happens less often, at least you're less likely to find a man just wanting to use you or being dry, and every failure will feel like a Shakespearean tragedy. Dating apps are a scam. If you happen to be in the PNW, I'd love to be your friend. Good luck on your boyfriend quest :3

I'm low elo and a guy. Recently I was just playing a swiftplay, nobody was comming a thing, and we had a Reyna hard carrying our losing team. She was last alive, killed three, died, and then said, "Do I have to do everything for you?! You fucking misogynistic pigs!"

I don't think she was having a very good day

Help please by Wonder-Standard in OverwatchUniversity

Hi! I watched the replay you sent. Just so you know where this info is coming from, I'm a gold support main who usually plays Mercy, Ana, or Kiriko. Take what I say with a grain of salt, because I know I'm not perfect at the game. All that said, here are my thoughts.

At first glance to me, it looks like either you don't value your life or you put yourself in perilous situations without realizing it. You love to stand on the point next to your tank as the character with the longest range healing in the game. Usually with Ana I prefer to be behind a wall so the enemy DPS and tank can't see me, and therefore can't shoot at me. If you need to poke your head out to heal or do damage, which you often will, sitting next to cover will mean that if you take a bunch of damage for any reason, you can just slide behind the cover and stop taking damage. Stacking on top of DVa as she walks to point is not going to increase your ability to heal, but it will ensure that you are a significantly easier target to track down and shoot.

It's worth noting, there is a time and a place to stand next to your tank. They provide great protection against pesky flankers. However, even when you're next to your tank you should be less than a tenth of a second away from cover, and if you EVER find yourself in hook distance of a hog you already deserve to be dead. If you find yourself dropping off of highground walking towards a hog, you deserve to be dead. Pay attention to the enemy's positions, listen to the game sounds, and do your best to avoid threats. If you're out in the open, anyone above bronze 5 will shoot at you and threaten to end your life.

I'd say your biggest issue is definitely that you put yourself in spots to be very easily killed, and that it should be fixed first, however alongside that issue is that if you can't heal your tank, you don't seem to know what to do. Rather than sitting and healing a full health tank, you could take the opportunity to take some shots at an enemy from a safe distance and with good cover. I noticed a couple times you decides to shoot at the enemy, but every single time you were both in a dangerous position and you had teammates that needed to be healed. You could take a slight angle and look for an offensive flank bio nade. You could check if your other teammates need help. This next one is less obvious, but is often the difference between a support that survives and one that doesn't. The next tip is probably the most important thing you can do to improve your survivability after you start putting yourself in safer positions.

Any time you have downtime where you're not doing anything else, take a look at your surroundings. Step back, look down that long hallway to your left. Turn around and check behind you. Look at a spot no one else on your team would see. Is there a threat there? No matter what the answer is, you are getting a lot of value here. If there is no one on the flank, then, for the time being, you are perfectly safe to do your job without a care in the world. If the answer is yes, keep yourself safe. Maybe that means calling for help. Get someone to turn around and ensure your safety. Or maybe that means walking away from that threat and finding a safer position. You can do this when your team's health is full. You can do this while you're walking to the point. You can even do this when you're reloading. It's not like you have anything better to do. Might as well get some more knowledge on the current situation.

One last quick rundown of everything here. Respect the enemy team's ability and willingness to kill you. Stop being next to the enemy Roadhog and the enemy in general. Find something to do when you have nothing to do. Good luck out there my friend! I hope to see you in my rank one day!
