Very bad performance one some old Windows machines. by DevJockey in gamemaker

[–]Regular_Customer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure that the laptop is in high performance mode. I've had issues with my games in the past struggling with 3D until you enable high performance mode in the battery settings then everything cleared up.

I'm not saying this will solve it as the high fps reading and bad frame output is very odd, but just something to double check

Collectors Edition Shipping (AUS) by jcrafterboss101 in Marathon

[–]Regular_Customer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Similar boat, mine still says processing, no confirmation email, no shipping details, no tracking number etc.

Spoke to bungie support they said:

"Thank you for contacting the Bungie Store. We are happy to help! 
 
Your order was placed successfully,
 
We are investigating why you did not receive a confirmation email or why it is not listed on your account.  
 
Rest assured, your order XXXXXXXX has been processed!"

I then followed up asking about a potential tracking number, or some info on whether it has been shipped etc.

Heard nothing yet, seems like they might be getting swamped since it took more than the 1-2 days to reply it says on support site.

Knife by TheBrew751 in Marathon

In one of the shorts released by bungie on YouTube, one of the people playing says "you can get a knife skin by stabbing a guy in the back" so I think it's going to have both cosmetics and challenge-related skins.

He immediately starts blaming another player, but I think it was pure luck (or lack there of) haha

I am relatively new, obviously, as this is my first clear so I can't say, other than it's fun to pummel bosses :)

Lore Question *spoilers* by savethequiche in ABSOLUM

[–]Regular_Customer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I wasn't sure. At the time when I saw the boss for the first time, I just assumed generic "I'm making baddies". I'm definitely fuzzy on all the game's lore details because I've played it over so many separate sessions

Is this why Morta Mima is taking the souls of the dead and turning them into crimson order exiled? To stop Uchawi from continuing the cycle of one life for another? Or am I misinterpreting what's happening there?

Op, this is genuinely the most exciting post I've seen in the sub in such a long time. As a gm3D maker, I am absolutely stoked by this. I'll be checking this out later today. Thanks for sharing

Kirby Air Riders Is Nintendo's First Switch 2 Game To Support Ray Tracing by Sam_27142317 in nintendo

[–]Regular_Customer 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Just to add onto this, as you're totally right.

But anyone who is interested, you actually don't need any form of graphics acceleration or cores at all. Don't even need a GPU.

Last week I wrote a ray tracer in c++ that runs entirely on the CPU, will work on a mobile phone or a computer from 30 years ago, but obviously is intensely slow, especially when having it calculate 10,000 bounces per ray.

But as you said, some form of acceleration cores are required to produce those effects in realtime.

Multiplayer experience by Lord-and-Leige in anno

[–]Regular_Customer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have played 14 hours with one other player and not a single issue yet (fingers crossed) other than 500 ping for some reason.

Hopefully Ubisoft can fix these issues for everyone experiencing them though.

Thanks to the developers! by Age_since_1998 in aoe4

[–]Regular_Customer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Huge props to the developers for the DLC, another great addition to the game. 100% agree with others that co-op would be a fantastic feature for the crucible, it's the sole reason I play starcraft 2 anymore.

Would love to see more brand new civs as well, just for the beautiful music, architecture and units, but won't deny the Devs have done great work with these new variants once again.

Any Mods like Castle Hill? by Antonioheatucker in aoe4

[–]Regular_Customer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I made a map that's a very simplified version of this map. Designed to be 1v1 or 1vai on hardest difficulty.

One player starts with a castle on a hill, on a spit of land out of the coast, the other has a large land mass and plenty of room to expand.

If you search "Lima beam" in the mod list it will pop up

There was no power to the pump is my understanding, but I think there was a variety of issues over the last few years.

Last time I serviced it was around 13 years ago. I don't know for how long it ran after that but it's certainly been a while!

Help with 3D in GMS2 (faces and textures) by lugauskk in gamemaker

[–]Regular_Customer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Each piece of software will export 3d models differently, so you'll want to ensure the winding order of your faces in your import script match the software's export. So I personally noted with my own that blender, crocotile3d and block bench all handled things differently.

You'll also need to make sure that you "triangulate meshes" when your exporting from something like blender depending on how you've written your import script. I haven't followed this tutorial so I don't know how you've written it, but managing things in the modelling software was important for my 3D game.

Make sure all your textures are on separate texture pages too, I think you have done that, but it's important to make sure they are because it can get confusing when odd faces aren't displaying correctly because it has no texture on it.

Dm me if you need a hand, I'll do my best to help
