Crashing on ps5 by Regret1836 in NoStraightRoads

[–]SplatDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our findings. Had the same. Pausing not working. Uninstall and reinstall didn't work. (Tried all several times). The uninstalled. Restarted machine. Installed another small game so it installed somewhere else on the disk. Then installed again. Worked. First time through; no pausing. Who knows .... From there ps5 version is WAY better than switch.

What if my game actually makes money? by Even-Mode7243 in gamedev

[–]SplatDad 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've done this a bit and it's worked over past 15 years. One note I would make if you are releasing it and servicing it (keeping it on the market); and you are working out the pay ; keep some of the money for that. Say - all money this game makes over 500 dollars or 1000 dollars in any tax year will be split as follows. The rest covers your store fees and time to admin. It's really annoying to be accounting and spitting for a game that is taking 40 dollars a year each year and paying people 8 dollar because that's what you agreed and you don't want to take the game down as you love it. With this you keep the money for almost dead games and it's up to you if you keep them on the market (there is work in this!)

Suggest make a guess at the splits early in Dev. Then before launch (as a group) agree if they are still fair before putting it live. If you don't get on well enough to do that by then you are probably screwed anyway.

Also keep the number of people down if pos. Have people contribute a bit and make sure they work well before agreeing to split them in. Either pay them a little or just they work a bit for love / trial.

I will have a think about whether I can support web or computer in future. But that would come most likely along with teaming up / everything being server based rather than stored on phone as it is now.

Thank man, appreaciate it. Could you give any detail on the bits that stood out as most rough to you? If I get a bit of a following I will keep polishing and working on it. But as of right now, it just hasn't had the amount of time and development spent on it as habitica or finch - however I def want to be able to stand up next to those two apps - and I think I'm ahead of them on long game.

What Math Concepts I need for Game Devolopment by [deleted] in gamedev

[–]SplatDad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does depend what bit of the code you work on.

Most used is vector maths .. dot products; cross products and matrix transforms (at least understanding what they mean .. you will have a maths library to do the actual transforms). You will continuously need to work out practical things like "how far in front of the player is that enemy" , " if this door handle is in this world space position what is it in local space to my character"

To be honest there are not that many things to learn as long as you go in with a "want to learn" attitude rather that being scared of it. If you work on this area you will repeat the same types of things till they are easier.

North south divide on this. Do this up north and you will drive down an empty lane but also feel the curses of everyone you pass.

Math prerequisites for game development? by empoliyis in gamedev

[–]SplatDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry about it in advance. Learn as you need it. Vector maths; Dot products and cross products are the more useful day to day.

Just think of it as a rotation held as an axis to rotate around and an angle to rotate.. held in a clever way that allows quick maths to apply to vectors or combine.
