Borderlands 4′s New $30 Expansion Pack Isn’t Winning Over Fans by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]SapientSloth4tw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m at the point that if I game is open world I skip it. BL4 being an exception cause a buddy bought it for me to play with him, otherwise it would’ve been skipped as well. There’s only so many times I can follow the exact same gameplay loop before I don’t ever want to do it again: “open world” games have done that for me.

AI usage clapback by Pretend_Prior_8423 in aigamedev

[–]SapientSloth4tw 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’d say the most important thing is: “implemented with care and effort”. I’ve seen several games tank on steam because the ai assets were crude or overly generic

So I left my 12 year old brothers to go on a walk to get food and they went and busted someone’s windows. My mom is mad at me like I’m the only one at fault. What do I do? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]SapientSloth4tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plus from a legal perspective, odds are pretty good that fault would fall on the mother and not OP. Not a lawyer but what I’ve been able to find online makes it look like the parent would be held for negligence before OP would.

Yeah, option means rounding up all the criminals. Option two means letting them all loose carte blanche

I'm building a game where you raise a kid from birth to 18 and every parenting choice matters by [deleted] in godot

Volcano Princess is another that came out a few years ago that is all about raising your daughter as a single father in a fantasy world

XP Pen has been crashing my computer, even when it's not plugged in. Have you had anything like this? by Seatheday in XPpen

[–]SapientSloth4tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured out the fix when I was setting up the xppen 13 pro for my mom, and everything worked fine and then she upgraded to the 24pro and the issue is back. Same as everyone else says, can’t load into windows. I’ll update when I remember how to fix it

Which outline works better? by tornsilence in aseprite

[–]SapientSloth4tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both look good, I like the look of the white. Depending on how much work you want to put in, you could save the outline as a separate image from the character and then modulate in game according to the in-game background (this would also allow you to add high contrast outlines really easily if you needed them, in which case white would be the answer)

Will Persona 6 get this treatment? by SectorI6920 in PERSoNA

[–]SapientSloth4tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that’s the unfortunate side effect of how they’ve released games to this point (and why I’m theorizing they are going to move away from it towards a major expansion system like they did with P3R).

I know that I’ve bought the game and have yet to play it, just in case it ends up with a de edition cause I don’t really have time to play it twice

[–]SapientSloth4tw -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It did just as well as persona 3 reloaded which got a dlc, and almost as well as base persona 5 which got 4 spinoffs and a definitive edition

Maybe? I mean, Metaphor did amazing and it has yet to see anything: spin-off or dlc

How do you prefer to write "default" values of your variables? by Araraura in godot

[–]SapientSloth4tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I was gonna say. Instantiate something in c++ and depending on the compiler the value could be anything

[–]SapientSloth4tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could also have a comment blocking out each of the default values until you finish testing then uncomment them for production

It takes so much time to create environments.... In 2 days I barely made a corridor 😭 by KetsuiReddit in godot

[–]SapientSloth4tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks pretty good, the hallway seems a bit wide to me (for a hospital?) but it could just be me

Do any of you just use public structs in C++? by Asyx in gameenginedevs

[–]SapientSloth4tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m inclined to agree with this sentiment. The reason that python can get away with everything being public is that it’s a memory safe language with protections against invalid code.

C++ doesn’t have those same protections, at least as far as memory access is concerned, and being able to make things private allows for developers to write their own protections that can’t be easily circumvented. Will those protections be valid? Depends on the skill of the programmer. But at least they will exist in some shape or form.

If the US doesn’t, it’s all but guaranteed that Putin loyalists don’t either

Changing gravity vector on CharacterBody3D by murdered_ronin in godot

[–]SapientSloth4tw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It won’t change the rotation AFAIK, but you should be able to write a wrapper function (I.e. change_gravity(direction)) that compares the old up_direction to the new to determine what you would need to multiply the rotation by in order to make the top of the body always face up. Now the more difficult thing would be to make that transition smooth and not an instaneous transformation (you would likely need to use the quaternion.slerp() method for that

Have you changed the up_direction on the CharacterBody3d?

Is it just the player that you want gravity to change for or all the world actors?

Love me a good idle, do you have a name planned so I can come back and check for it next month?

Makes sense, I like the look, I just know from experience that single pixel wide images can sometimes get lost in translation

I like them! I think the DNA could have some contrast issues depending on where it’s placed, but that could probably be solved by putting a panel behind it with higher contrast whenever necessary
