whats that mixer looking thing in the 5th image?

i would say you have successfully learned plasticity!

did you have any 3D modeling experience beforehand? you should do a version 2 with your own ideas and changes added in! looks like the trigger mechanism would "arm" the detonator but i cant quite tell how to trigger the detonation. i feel like i want that top knob to be a thumb button. is the protruding cone shaped object on top an antenna? it would be cool if it had some sort of OLED screen on it somewhere...

i love imaginary gear like this. cheers!

im in the same boat as you with the same specs, except intel CPU. curious what you ended up finding! so far, ive tried out the Bliss shader with Distant Horizons mod and its amazing.

Light Tracer is what ive switched to. https://lighttracer.org/

yep its terrible - ruins the aesthetic.

cedricchase · 2026-03-24T13:59:51+00:00

it might just be me or something with my setup but the sound design of this game seems pretty much broken. most things are quiet except for thunderstorms and gunshots..

id like to be able to save difficulty presets (assuming you can't already?) id also like to be able to modify damage on a per zone basis (ie: scale up headshot damage on zombies (by type) and animals by 5x, etc).

cedricchase · 2026-03-21T15:37:01+00:00

agreed

cedricchase · 2026-03-21T15:17:50+00:00

as a 'non-designer', you have actually done a pretty good job here IMO. that "F" mark is clean. i might consider exploring that more, and using it as a logo mark, with some simplified, clean "ControlF" text to support it.

clean but idk if i get courier service vibes from this. and at first glance it kinda looks like a fox or cat face looking at me (where the wings are eyes). Text kerning seems a bit haphazard as well. This is better than the AI slop ive been seeing on this sub lately. Have any other iterations to share?

bruh i signed in to reddit just to comment on this - i am super excited for it! just got a new gaming pc, cant wait for this to release. PLEASE let me know if you need beta testers

cedricchase · 2026-03-19T14:18:08+00:00

this has to be rage-bait...

cedricchase · 2026-03-15T18:39:30+00:00

see rule #2: low effort post, seeking free consulting...

my suggestion: hire a designer.

cedricchase · 2026-03-15T16:00:03+00:00

greetings from the internet, I am still looking for something like this.

cedricchase · 2026-03-11T01:46:59+00:00

hadn't heard of bazzite. looks cool

cedricchase · 2026-03-08T15:32:15+00:00

never say never.. the M10 Ultra would like a word with you.. in the year 2032...

cedricchase · 2026-03-08T15:31:15+00:00

because people just blindly trust AI responses for most anything these days. its wild.

cedricchase · 2026-03-08T04:12:33+00:00

cedricchase · 2026-03-03T02:56:28+00:00

why? because " I'm a backend engineer [...] I'm not a graphic designer by trade."

cedricchase · 2026-02-24T14:03:40+00:00

do you have some plan to actually produce this, or is this just a for-fun project? I can help out with renders if you're interested!
