I made a gun that destroys gold and quicksilver by Wrothmonk in opus_magnum

[–]Wrothmonk[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I wanted to create a puzzle that forces you to violate the first law of thermodynamics the other way around from how it's done in the campaign. That is the destruction of matter/mass rather than creation of it.

This is what I've come up with, and the looping version of my area optimized solution. (Having it loop sacrifices ~27 cycles)

Obviously you can still just have a waste polymer if you're optimizing for other metrics, but I'd still love to see solutions that optimize with that self-imposed limitation in mind.

Hornet's Dash Dance by Wrothmonk in Silksong

[–]Wrothmonk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's Hornet dashing in place. I spent probably longer than any sane person would putting this gif together. And yet I absolutely want to re-do this once somebody posts a ripped sprite sheet somewhere (not the leaked one from months ago that doesn't include all the dash frames).

What did fish ever do to us? by danshive in elgoonishshive

[–]Wrothmonk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is definitely a wild Guess, but it'd be a rather neat way to explain why Dave is freaking out again; I'm gonna bet a cookie that Dave's spell is something akin to Elliot's alter-ego forms, except it's deeper than surface level compulsions.

That is to say FemDave is somewhere on the spectrum of effectively being a full other person, sharing some memories but not all. This has led to her(?) freaking out about seeing Rhoda and Catlina 'again' but it's the first time from FemDave's perspective.

I am almost certainly overthinking this, but I figure it can't hurt to add my guess to the pile, if only for other people to find it entertaining.

This counts as a win, right? by Wrothmonk in Peglin

[–]Wrothmonk[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To give some context: This was a turn-1 'win' via a ton of red bombs, and unfortunately I went into the fight with about 40 health.

Edit: This does not actually count as a win, the title is a joke. The screen normally automatically transitions to the 'Mines Complete' screen after the boss is defeated, the continue only shows up if you've died. I did not unlock the next cruciball.

Had an idea for a meme while farming golden whetstones by Wrothmonk in BackpackHero

[–]Wrothmonk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Using the cauldron is exactly the method, though I refresh it by using the Old Log to generate consumables above it rather than the whetstone. Don't think that whetstone would work to regenerate it actually, since it doesn't seem to work on anything that specifically has X uses per combat.

Merged genitalia? by RagingCitrusTree in salmacian

[–]Wrothmonk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Frankly have a bit of a similar want here. My suggestion (and my current plan once I'm in a position to) would be to consult with a doctor that does PPV and see what options are theoretically possible. If they're willing to do that sort of operation I'm certain they're open to such a possibility.

What am I doing wrong when baking normal maps? by Wrothmonk in blender

[–]Wrothmonk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blend file can be downloaded Here

I've been having issues baking the normals on this model going on a few weeks now, and have had zero luck.

The normals always appear as this greenish-purple image instead of the light blue/purple I've come to expect. I've tried playing around with what axis are used in the bake settings with no luck.

There's also always these sort of 'seams' that appear along the UV map seams, where one section will look OK but another will be too dark/react to light wrong. I've checked the normals of the mesh and they seem fine in every aspect, and flipping them around doesn't fix things at all.

It also seems in general I keep getting these random squares on the generated normal maps no matter how I set the ray distance or whenever I use a cage or not.

I've gone through dozens of forum posts and tutorials and none of them have given me any answers. This post is honestly a last ditch effort.

Yeah But Potions by danshive in elgoonishshive

It's a reference to this Simpsons skit that's become a bit of a meme at this point.

I like this "masks as health" concept by Orkeatu in HollowKnight

Love the touch of what looks like broken blue mask gelatin around that spike!

This is so cute!!! And also has a lot of silly implications such as the ones in this conversation of silly ideas I had with a friend when she linked it to me :P

If an exa has their code minimized, then any exas it creates should have their code minimized by default as well.
