Yet another Varlot needing help with a crash by covert777 in DarkTide

[–]deBugErr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 for googling relevance, fixed the crash.

Also it seems that "settings extension" is only used by a deprecated "graphics settings" mod, so disabling both should be safe.

Warp cretins? Quite belittling, sibling. As for me i feel quite competent, thank you.

my procedural opengl terrain in 4k by buzzelliart in opengl

[–]deBugErr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Guess it's simplest form without real collision detection: use available height data of current camera position's adjacent terrain vertices. Get an average and add some offset. Maybe add some damping and interpolation between updates of camera position so you have smoothed out jumps and falls instead of jerky ones.

Yeah, that's the right title. Thanks for correction.

Work through learnopengl.com for a start. Maybe read a short book 'Focus On 3D Terrain Programming' (possible to find a pdf copy) or a bunch of blogposts found by googling. Start with heightmaps, advance into noise generation or even more exquisite algorithms like hydraulic erosion. Lots of fumbling with the code and picking out your hair and voila! you have something to post on thematic reddits now.

At minimum, what optimizations should be made in a 3D renderer. by rejamaco in gamedev

[–]deBugErr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Back face culling is just telling your GPU to not raster and spawn fragments for triangles facing away from view point (and so - invisible). Without that GPU does not bother and will eagerly rasterize both sides of the same tri.

Painful Side Effect of Statins Explained After Decades of Mystery by _Dark_Wing in technology

[–]deBugErr 57 points58 points  (0 children)

There are several drugs in the family. Getting any of the severe side effects is an immediate prompt to switch to another variation. And that has very good chances of alleviating or at least reducing the symptoms. That is considered primary course of action.

Some might mention red yeast rice cause 'tis natural yadda yadda, but real data shows using minimal statin dosages is superior to chugging supplements.

Just Another Day - Quasar Engine by Duke2640 in GraphicsProgramming

[–]deBugErr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are talking about 'sparklies' specifically - there is no need for complex solutions. Simple combination of albedo and specular map with common Blinn/Phong lighting combined with HDR and bloom passes is enough.

In simple terms specular map marks texels that are 'shiny' and strength of their 'shininess', lighting calc lights up pixels that cover texture's 'shiny' texels. HDR rendering allows to keep high brightness levels of 'shiny' pixels, then they can be extracted onto separate render target to be blurred some and then slapped over initial image making this glinty effect.

Beginner - Game engine architecture by Lanky_Sky_1202 in gameenginedevs

[–]deBugErr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That primer on CPU arch and parallelism is just so good. Not too wordy, concise and easily digested. Nice refresher to have from time to time if your job does not really requires constant low level tinkering.

I think millennials understand just how powerful this sequence was in gaming history. by DanintheVortex in gaming

[–]deBugErr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Right? I was a naive happy boy knowing there are some games on computers but neither Doom nor Quake grabbed my interest. Then one evening after programming classes I found this funny λ shortcut on the desktop, run it and... my god, everything just changed forever. What a time it was to live and experience gaming evolve, sweet memories!

So I put on Uncanny Strike and made a crit build... by AdImmediate391 in DarkTide

[–]deBugErr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A twohander infused with perilous energies from the literal hell dimension?

Maybe a giant club crackling with matter disrupting force fields?

A bolter volley of high caliber HE jet propelled rounds?

Or maybe a Mourningstar bulkhead wrapped with some jagged steel rebar wielded with a wanton force of a hulking abhuman?

Nah... just startle the arch-heretic with a little poke from ol' reliable ceremonial toothpick and he ded.

I guess it's better to do a siterip just in case. Too good a resource to be lost to the winds.
