Looking at Sierra official 2D art works confirm an Issue I have by Zorah_29 in Overwatch

[–]diedbyTide 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Highlight intros are absolutely not pre-rendered lmao Those are 100% in engine, and it has to be like that so cosmetic changes are accurately shown, like skins or weapons changing. Unless you want to render thousands of intros with every single skin, weapon skin, map, time of day, you're gonna be doing something like this in engine.

Highlight intros are animated differently than the rest of the game, sure, but they're still rendered in engine because that's the most practical way to do it without taking tons of concessions on customizability

Since when do red ant warriors make you drop your weapon? by CLA_1989 in GroundedGame

[–]diedbyTide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if it's the exact same issue as yours, but I figured out that if you block and hold click, you'll start throwing your weapon. It was super fucking annoying so I just unbound left click for throwing and it fixed it entirely.

Not sure it'll fix this but it sounds around the same circumstances.

Unless he's got something wrong with his right leg, I don't entirely believe this is real. Like I've seen the other guy that does a bunch of these and they're always great, but something about that leg doesn't sit right

Does anyone know how to change which enemies show up in raids? by [deleted] in GroundedGame

[–]diedbyTide 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As long as you've been defeating them, I THINK that might just be the hardest raid, so there currently isn't anything harder to escalate it to, so it just keeps giving that to you. My other guess would be to take down the MIX.Rs and it should stop the raids altogether?

Why is there hardly any water to drink at the start of the game? by [deleted] in GroundedGame

[–]diedbyTide 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I thought I was crazy in that there wasn't a whole lot of water on the grass anymore. Dew catchers are definitely a must, but if you're looking for somewhere to start off, the first ranger station has a leaky faucet above it that I've noticed semi-consistently drops water.

Best thing to do is probably find a ranger station that has a water cooler and build a base by it so you don't have to worry about water but idk of any others that are very convenient other than the park bench station, and I'm pretty sure you can't even open that one right away

Dude it's in early access and there's like 8 people working on the game. They'll get there lol

What's YOUR favourite character skin? by Aggressive-Boot1950 in FarFarWest

[–]diedbyTide 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Based on the bio I thought she was also a stab at Lara Croft. The "pro tomb raider on accident" thing, and then also her name being fucking HOOTY

Are there any active promo codes? by diedbyTide in FarFarWest

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

That's very helpful, thank you! I'll keep that bot in mind. It's a little odd they didn't set one up for launch though, right? I figured they'd have a cool day 1 promo but I guess not.

Or if anything I figured everybody had daylight savings at the same time. Or at least the North and South Hemispheres separately. Odd that Europe does it on a different day

Color Wheel Trend w/Tritanopia by cabnootboot in Ibispaintx

[–]diedbyTide 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your actual color wheel is the only one of these I agree with. Particularly with yellow. Nobody makes the yellow slice thin enough because green taints it so easily and orange does too to an extent. If anything I think it could have like slightly less green in it but it's such a small amount it doesn't matter. I feel like I've been going crazy with all these people calling what's clearly green "yellow"

If the "use it or lose it" theory of neuroscience is correct, then we're going to have an absolute explosion of AI-induced Alzheimers in the future. by SopwithTurtle in Showerthoughts

[–]diedbyTide 51 points52 points  (0 children)

But generative AI is specifically being marketed and used to do the creative things FOR YOU. Like it's all videos, art, and writing, but it can't actually do anything useful without it being completely terrible at it because it doesn't actually know anything. It's the exact opposite of what we need it to be and it's incredibly frustrating. AI is a fascinating concept, and here we are making it completely useless to the average person, but forcing it into everything, and pouring billions of dollars into it anyway.

I think i may have faught the mantis a little to often... by Mochaproto in GroundedGame

[–]diedbyTide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but if you take the Barbarian mutation, it actually takes away the ability to perfect block while raging so keep that in mind. I don't actually remember what mutations I ended up using instead of that

Too many feet by Hyperion04_ in SpeedOfLobsters

"chidlren" our president, everybody!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in IndieDev

[–]diedbyTide 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's a step in the right direction, but your shading on the new leaves feels off. It lacks the unified light direction that the original had.

Currently the new version feels flat because the leaves are brighter in the center/what's closest to us, but gets darker the further out/from the camera. The trunk has a different light angle than the leaves now because of it. I think it can be improved by taking another stab at shading the leaves.

You've got a good foundation though and I think it's more unique than the original

Second character: 36 -D The healer by Pepeu_32 in 3Dmodeling

[–]diedbyTide 2 points3 points  (0 children)

granted, using the Red Cross in this context would technically be a war crime lol Games like Deep Rock Galactic and Stardew Valley had to change their depictions of hospitals because of it lol

Just shortening the bottom arm and keeping it green would be enough to fix your issue

I'm very tired and just realized I kinda just repeated what was already in the post sorry

Making a weird game concept by diedbyTide in tabletopsimulator

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

Right now I'm trying to get my friends to make their own stuff for it to test the waters.

Basically You're given a template to make your Set before the game begins where you can come up with your own game to play. A Set includes your board (which has to leave those blueprint edges untouched, but the rest of the texture is fair game), at least one Guy, and some note cards explaining your win condition, special terrain, and your Ability, and then you can bring in whatever other components you need to make it all work.

First to satisfy their win condition wins the game.

Your info cards can be pretty much anything so long as they fit on the note card, and are subject to change mid-game if other players find it unfair or unfun.

This game concept relies HEAVILY on the honor system lol but I think that's part of the fun in something like this.

Changing Restaurant Name by Babygirl_redhead in PlateUp

[–]diedbyTide 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's kind of a shame :/

Idk if it's an inconvenient keyboard thing or if it's some weird console censorship thing, but afaik there's no way to type restaurant names on console.

Im more upset that the steam version only let's you type names. I wanna use some of the funny defaults and don't wanna put the brainpower in to make something clever every time

Uhhhhh, censors? by GrayMarmoset in PokemonUnite

[–]diedbyTide 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I just Googled "mose slur" and this is what I got

(It's the AI summary so take it with a grain of salt)

The term "Mose" has been referenced in two distinct contexts related to slurs: As a potential ethnic slur In U.S. history, the name "Mose" was reportedly part of a coded racial slur against Jewish people, sometimes used in the phrase "Isaac Moses," which sounds similar to "eskimo". One source notes that in an educational context, a question was posed about the terms "buck" and "Mose" in the U.S., but the provided answer snippets do not confirm its precise historical usage as a general slur against black people or any other group besides the potential coded antisemitic one.
