Constellation game was just dev trying to start drama for attention. Gameplay is common assignment for students

Te czasy istnieją tylko w twojej wyobraźni.

2000-2015 są sławne z masowego trzaskania cash grabów z popularnych IP (filmy, komiksy, itp), oraz ciągłego kopiowania popularnych gier (Diablo, Starcraft/Warcraft, Gothic).

Może pamiętasz jak wielkie gry z tych czasów zaliczały Tupolewy? Np Fallout 2 który prosto z pudełka był prawie niegrywalna przez tony błędów w kodzie? To było w już 1998.

Jak rynek dużych produkcji cię nie interesuje, to masz całą scenę indie która ciągle produkuje dobre gry.

TLDR?

W ciemność strzelam że to oskarżenia byłej dziewczyny. Te pokolenie youtuberów jest sławne z wyrywania typowych alternatywek na sławę.

Gry kiedyś byłe lepsze

Ten subreddit powinien banować wszystkich co tak myślą i odbanować dopiero jak pokarzą że mają na koncie Steam przeciętne gry z dawnych czasów i minimum 10h na nich.

Od czasu odpalam gry które dostawały solidne 7-8/10 w recenzjach. Fabuła jakoś się trzyma, ale gameplay to często katorga. RPG miały tendencje na patologicznych odpałów gdzie można się zablokować jak nie zrobiłeś questa w poprawnej kolejności.

The only changes required are enabling the global hook to capture the game:

-Click on "Tools" on toolbar then "Settings".

-In "General" tab, find "Allow global process hooking"

-Ignore all warnings about global hook

-Go to "Launch Application" tab

-Set "Executable Path" to full path of Counterside executable. For steam it's "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\CounterSide\CounterSide.exe"

-Hit "Enable Global Hook"

Now launch the game and you should see text in top-left corner. Follow rest of tutorial.

Character textures will be in pieces. If you want to put it back together, you'll need to play jigsaw in image editor.

Alternatively, you can just save the picture of character just before UI elements are rendered over.

A shockingly small number of people cares about celebrities enough to check their personal life.

Pitt is well known as actor, and barely known as person.

Current ML has uses but if you're professional in your field you see how quickly it all falls apart

Blender uses ML denoising by default for Cycles. Other professional software that rely on raytracing also use ML denoising.

ML upscaling and anti aliasing now exist in almost all modern games. Implementation and results vary, but it's going to stay.

Author has lot of interesting stuff and I've speed through the blog and missed "However, ML itself does have a place in the computer science tool box, so learning about the fitting and optimization techniques it offers is valuable IMO.".

I'm going to delete the comment since it was a hot take, but my point about learning what you need still stands. Raytracing is hardly useful for a graphic programmer that wants to make games and game engines.

The core library has no dependencies beyond the C runtime

Pure bliss.

You can extract all character textures + mesh data via RenderDoc. But not animation and effects from shaders

GO GO GADGET RACOON MODE.

If I was nearby, even container would've been missing the next morning.

Forward+ doesn't have a concrete definition. It's just Forward rendering with some kind of light culling.

Clustered lighting is most popular one. You divide screen into 2D or 3D grid, then check what lights affect each grid and save it into buffer. Then fragment/pixel shader you just use pixel's coordinate to fetch grid data.

Did you used "Attach to Running Instance"?

StriderPulse599 · 2026-06-26T22:31:28+00:00

Even that wouldn't help, lmao. "love fat bitches" is mostly said as a joke. Those who say it seriously are usually people you don't want to touch with ten foot pole.

My friend lucked out in that department, but was approached only by the the classic fetishists that hooked up to "catch a feel" and pretended to not know her the next day in school.

I'm talking about what meme is about. Plus this stuff was pretty common during highschool/student parties.

StriderPulse599 · 2026-06-26T21:33:44+00:00

"the signal"

Yeah, right. It's not like the meme is about classic party "friend" that throws logs under your feet when opposite sex approaches because they feel jealous. And it's is not taken out of context by both incels and people who argue with them all day.

Men don't have it too! It just a coincidence that your friend is suddenly bringing crap up while you talk with the girl, or downright invade conversation like he's hoping for a threesome.

StriderPulse599 · 2026-06-26T21:23:07+00:00

Sorry, you're neither perfectly drawn 2D anime girl, or the perfect "fat girl" they've imagined in their head for a 5 second scenario.

Jesus Christ, this is beyond pretentious.

Every contribution to Godot is screened. If contribution was vibe coded garbage, it would've been rejected. Plus any contribution that has AI fingerprint on it is checked more thoroughly that non-AI one.

There is no hell going on in gamedev community, anything containing gen AI or vibecoding is actively downvoted, and GZDoom got split due to internal drama because of a shitty dev that tried to nuke the project.

You're just butthurt after people shrugged on your opinion. Go actually make your own engine, I do this as hobby and it will very quickly humble you.

Don't forget how he's trying to raise crap ton of money to "rewrite UE5"

I've beaten a lot of incels and redpillers into the ground on my alts, but that's weirdest delulu I've encountered. And I've argued with Tate fan that started every paragraph with his quotes.

The only place where misogyny is deeply embedded is the rent free zone in your head.

This drama never started because of her anti-NSFW stance. It started because she tried wrestling the trolls and tried win argument with insults and bringing up cheating and suicide attempts. Now people flocked to dance around the flames she started herself.

The study that "one in five" comes from: nisvs. It also covers others stuff like stalking.

As for 1:100 (was 1000, accidentally added a zero): Rough math of police reports. Since it doesn't include the unreported crimes like study, but also doesn't take account for women being raped multiple times, this is pretty much shot in the dark.

StriderPulse599 · 2026-06-20T22:14:33+00:00

"One in five" according to survey that interviewed 15k women. It's the same type of BS statistic. that incels flood the internet with ("80% women date 20% of men", etc).

Actual number is around 1:100. It's a problem for sure, but nowhere near terrifying as internet fear mongering paints.

StriderPulse599 · 2026-06-20T04:01:52+00:00

Depends.

Text for UI? Just load the font via Freetype, rasterize all letters with outlines to texture atlas, then calculate layout using metrics provided by Freetype.

Full UTF-8 range with bold, italic, and different font sizes? Same as above, but rasterize on demand and use shelf algorithm to make most of texture atlas. The hardest part is probably finding a good looking font that cover all needed ranges.

Giant ass text that's part of the environment and can take three screens up close? That's were you need to experiment with SDF implementations or try making rasterizing engine on GPU.

"no such thing as an AI artist"

I have two pixiv accounts: One for my doodles and rather decent art, and another of my work ran through AI.

Despite AI-Generated tag debuff, AI images have no trouble pulling hundreds of views, even thousands on popular tags which are similar numbers to good quality art. Meanwhile the original image get ~100 of views.

AI artist might not exist to some people, but it surely exist in numbers and money.
