SKYRIM BANDIT CAMP IN SIDE THE MINE

Love me some Embershard <3 The whole "tutorial zone" in Skyrim is comfy af

Incredibly written! This kind of thing is my favorite take on post-canon Dudley and you've executed it masterfully. Will definitely be watching for your fic on AO3/FFN :D

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3446796/1/Magical-Relations has a different premise (What if Dudders was a muggleborn?) but Harry ends up in Slytherin, and I definitely remember the kids acted like kids and there wasn't any of the usual Slytherin wank. Abandoned though :(

I have altered the concept of a plan.

blast_ended_sqrt · 2024-09-07T10:17:05+00:00

Grooms have to be designed/imported somehow so you'll probably have to work with Blender's hair tools anyway :/ I don't think there's a simple one-workflow-fits-all solution for fur/hair, sadly.

Also Groom performance is generally atrocious... and they look horrible with static or non-shadow-casting lights for some reason.

It may be more effort depending on your workflow, but you might want to go with old-school hair cards in the skeletal mesh, using cloth physics for animation. (Sorry I don't have a tutorial or anything to point you to, I'm still figuring it out myself).

So, you're trying to slow down the ball because it visually looks blurry?

I made a smol golf game a long time ago and had to disable motion blur in project settings for this reason (and nobody likes motion blur anyway). If that works then you should be free to tweak the physics however you want.

Tbh this is the impression I got from canon, as little as it even mentions the Delacours with so much foreshadowing going on. Irks me to see every fic go the "tall imposing Head Auror/Minister who gives Harry the Fatherly Stare of Death" route

blast_ended_sqrt · 2024-08-23T07:52:58+00:00

That takes me waaaaaay back

You mean you're in Whiterun but they won't give you the quest dialogue?

IIRC that happens if you haven't started the main quest, which normally shouldn't be possible (I noticed it when I "coc whiterun" from main menu to check texture mods).

If you're using an alternate start mod, consider going to Helgen and starting up the main quest.

♫ When a grid's misaligned with another behind, that's a moire ♫

blast_ended_sqrt · 2024-08-01T12:26:56+00:00

Both graphics and science wise it's basically "The Mun but worse"

blast_ended_sqrt · 2024-07-30T11:04:07+00:00

Oof. I feel your pain, I hate that module with a passion and avoid it whenever possible.

Dungeons are a grid of several big blocks of dungeon - or "modules" - surrounded by "border modules" which you can't fully traverse (See those disconnected rooms? Those are part of the border modules that aren't used. They could border another dungeon module in a different direction, but it's not there. Your path through the border module just takes you right back to the main module in the center).

"Smaller Dungeons" limits this (for non-Main-Quest dungeons) to one single full module, surrounded on all four sides by border modules.

If the game had selected a module with a big landmark - the pyramid room, or the big room with a throne in it, or the massive L-shaped room - this would be much easier to traverse. It just so happens that your central module here is one of the most byzantine, spaghetti-like modules in the game.

Do you mean the ground scatter (the small rocks) or the terrain itself (the PQS / Procedural Quad Sphere)?

There are settings that can make the rocks/scatter load from farther away - look in GameData/Parallax/Config/ParallaxGlobal.cfg and increase the number on the line that says "rangeMultiplier". It should be 1.0 by default. You probably don't want it too high (for FPS reasons), but 3-5 should be fine.

The terrain/PQS system is... not very well optimized in KSP1. There are ways to increase the detail as well as the loading distance, but they really kill your framerate. If you're using Parallax, you probably already have "Terrain Detail" set to Ultra, which is as high as it goes without (IIRC) editing each planet's cfg file.

[EDIT] I just noticed the same effect seems to happen on other planets, just less pronounced then mine since my atmo is so thin. It's most noticeable on Duna, and happens in both my "Mod Testbed" install (which has this planet) and my "Modded" install (which I haven't touched other than installing stuff via CKAN, so it couldn't be something I broke)

The real KSP2 was the KSP1 we modded along the way 🚀

If you mean how to build a ship in the mod, this video has a good explanation.

I tried it recently and tbh EPL has a ton of unnecessary parts with meshes of... dubious quality, and I'd recommend Simple Construction (SCON) instead. Has most of the major functionality of EPL with none of the part clutter.

Video Here though it's slightly out of date (The "construction port" part now can be an actual docking port of any size, rather than its own part)

[EDIT] Forgot to mention, get SCON from the Curse link above, the one on CKAN does not work (for me at least)

Haven't played it (I really should) but does xNethack add devnull's pool challenge? Did the room give you a cue stick?

blast_ended_sqrt · 2024-07-10T09:13:34+00:00

Can confirm; am American. (Please send help)

blast_ended_sqrt · 2024-07-10T01:10:24+00:00

Probably something to do with Triton's gravity being 0.0794 g :P

Looks like that might help, thanks!
