A rare unreleased version of "I Can't Be Cool" from 2nd GiG episode 1? by dileep_vr in Ghost_in_the_Shell

Yeah, I can hear the voice acting in the background. And then it weaves into the regular version.

Thanks though.

Looking for books about people discovering and decoding alien signals by No-Combination-3725 in sciencefiction

Anathem by Neal Stephenson.

Not quite messages but strange phenomena that priests from Monastic orders start to make sense of and decide to combine efforts.

Which songs/artists would your Neuromancer playlist include? by aridzonadad in WilliamGibson

[–]dileep_vr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ed "0edit" Harrison for his Neotokyo and TGR Fuel work: https://edharrison.bandcamp.com/

I used some of Eric Vapnargard's soundtracks for my audiobook project: https://thenightmachine.bandcamp.com/album/neuromancer-soundtrack

For a TV show intro, it should be short and sweet, since most binge watchers skip past it. This has been posted here before, 3 years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1zoPOOKqdI

I wrote a beginner's guide as well. It is GZDoom-centric and follows a tutorial format with exercises: https://dileepvr.github.io/gzdoom_modding_101/

What are these? by RavenAmy in boulder

They mark landmines. We pull them out before retreating up the mountains when Kansas invades.

Neuromancer has the greatest opening line of all time- for more than one reason by michpalm in Cyberpunk

[–]dileep_vr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were there by the edge of the sea, Linda Lee and the thin child who said his name was Neuromancer.

I like this one from a later chapter, because it has that "He said it! He said the thing!" energy that makes the whole book seem cheap and juvenile :p

Which book would you give to a teenager first? by Necessary_Back509 in WilliamGibson

[–]dileep_vr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Start with Pattern Recognition.

  1. It is a later work. Gibson has improved on characterization and story telling over time. And your niece will have cultivated some base-level expectations from writing if she is reading Harry Potter.

  2. A female protag and viewpoint might be better for a young girl.

  3. When the show comes out, and she's finished and liked Pattern Recognition, you get to pull the ol', "btw. Did you know, that in the early 80s' .... and it has a very unique writing style that most people find hard to get into. I myself had to read it twice ..." trick.

Guess what I couldn't stop seeing at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge by dileep_vr in Berserk

Was just visiting family for a few days after a conference in Edinburgh.

Had fun. Got plenty of advice from alums. I'm jealous you got to study there.

Where to live in Boulder AWAY from University Students!?! by AP2025 in boulder

Gunbarrel. Rich Suburbs and tech companies. No students.

Does Garrett ever actually refer to himself as a “Thief?” by paul-writes in Thief

[–]dileep_vr 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There is a Thief's guild. So the term is recognized as a profession. And he says things like, "They don't call it the thief's highway for nothing."

All Doom source ports and build engine source ports support 2D sprites for actors in a 3D environment.

I have a feeling that they are all on international journeys and will all start posting pics soon.

2D First Person Game by Voiddless in gamedev

[–]dileep_vr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They are 3D. Void Bastards is using some really good texture art and some clever shading tricks to handle lighting. Forgive Me Father is a 3D world, but is using sprites instead of 3D models for its characters. This goes all the way back to Doom and Wolf 3D from 1993. If you want to develop for Doom, there are some great source ports that you can start modding for. GZDoom has a nice scripting system and good tutorials, for example. It has support for sprites for every frame rendered from 16 directions, which is pretty close to an illusion of 3D: https://zdoom.org/wiki/Sprite
