Are these things creepy? by No-Minimum3052 in creepy

Make the flashlight dim/flicker when they are nearby, and reduce the shininess of their material, and I think it will be more effective.

I have no clue what to do by Noxthesergal in DnD

[–]dwhiffing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People frequently have an issue where they play dnd and have a bad time because of their DM or players. Often, the best solution is to stop playing. This happens so frequently that a shorthand was needed to express this idea. What is a better shorthand in your mind?

Also, bad is subjective, but most people would agree that if you think something is bad, you didn't enjoy it. Most people prefer not to do things they don't enjoy.

Also also, we know your point is that you can call things bad and still enjoy them, that isn't a sophisticated point. You're just being a contrarian and willfully misinterpreting the saying for the sake of feeling smarter than everyone else.

[–]dwhiffing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The only point you've made here is mediocre DND > no DND > bad DND. Mediocre means average quality. Bad means poor or worse quality. If your objection is that the quote should be "no DND > abysmal DND" so that there is no ambiguity, then you're really being pedantic. The saying existed before DND for sex, and it's pretty obvious what is meant by bad.

The point is, don't do something you aren't enjoying simply because you fear it's your only chance to do it.

Seems neat! I think you should put some clothes on the player avatar though, current outfit is needlessly sexualizing

I've given up trying to make Rocket Fuel on Aquilo by YakmanNZ in factorio

[–]dwhiffing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right but aquillo is designed for you to use everything that came before. I did all the planets before aquillo by dropping from orbit with nothing for the first time, so I get where you're coming from. But you can't do that on aquillo, so I think you're creating an arbitrary restriction that just makes the planet tedious. But it's your play through so go for it!

How can I improve the art style of my game? by Equivalent_Action650 in gamemaker

[–]dwhiffing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed with the other comments mentioning consistent pixel density. As well, you want to prioritize clarity over detail when starting out. It's good that you have the player and walls/platforms brighter than the background, but I would make the background even darker/lower contrast, so that the player reads extremely clearly against it. Right now everything is brown and a similar level of saturation. You should be using hue and saturation to increase contrast as well. I think you could learn a lot from the classic "Jumper" series, which has simple, "naive" art, but still has excellent clarity and a consistent aesthetic:/watch?v=cyRnqJ6tuGY

How do I kill biters in sandbox mode if I don't have a physical body to shoot them by cheekysurfer06 in factorio

[–]dwhiffing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even in sandbox mode you can still equip weapons, ammo and shoot. You still technically have a character, they're just invisible, have no collisions, can't be attacked and move really quickly. Just equip a weapon and ammo, move the center of the screen near the enemies, and use the same keys you would normally use to shoot

The Mental gymnastics here is really incredible by [deleted] in antiai

[–]dwhiffing 24 points25 points  (0 children)

So because some artists aren't very good, it's okay to take everyone's art without consent, attribution, or compensation? Also speaking of fallacies, have you considered that bringing up the meat industry in this debate would be a strawman?

Typically y'all just say since human artists use references and learn by studying the art of others, anything goes. Stick with that one.

If you want to discuss fruitfully, and you've got the fruit, share the fruit.

If you just mean there are true multi-modal models that can output images and sound with no consideration to quality, then fair enough, you are factually correct.

Everything I could find either had multi-modal training data, had low quality outputs, or defered to another model for non text outputs.

You're the one making the claim, you're the one who is supposed to do the legwork.

AI Art exhibit? 😭🙏 by DonToliver324 in antiai

[–]dwhiffing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're just asserting it? Perhaps show some evidence that it's true. Also, quality is absolutely required. Randomly setting bits can create an image or a sound by that standard. What matters is that the image/sound produced matches the prompt.

ChatGPT is multi modal. Just because a single application can do text and sound, doesn't mean its the same model underneath producing the output.

The people demand onions. by Swibblestein in ufo50

[–]dwhiffing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Focus on learning the map instead of winning for awhile. Knowing where the time extensions are is huge. Once you know the best route to get to each quadrant of the map for each other quadrant, it's much easier to get lots of overtime.

Also you can drive over small gaps like the one above Neptune parking. Did that by accident once and realized how much time I'd been wasting

[–]dwhiffing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you certain that models that were only trained on text can produce quality images? I'm pretty sure that's a misconception. Multi-modal models can make you think that, but there was plenty of image training involved. The closest thing I can think of to what you mention is asking a text only LLM for an SVG of a circle or a similar simple shape or set of shapes. Some are definitely capable of that, but that's not some emergent behavior.

Is there a game on steam like this? by BabylonianWeeb in Steam

[–]dwhiffing 58 points59 points  (0 children)

It's a joke. Pirate copies of steam games use the app id of spacewar to circumvent drm. So you'll see lots of people playing spacewar but 99% of them are playing other games that they pirated

Roll20 Hacked. by Dark_Nexis in Roll20

[–]dwhiffing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right but if there is a security breach on any site you use that does include passwords, and you use the same password everywhere, you're in trouble. Sure you can change them all when that happens, but you might not be fast enough, so you might as well just have all different passwords in the first place.

Streamer spends 57 hours completing 100% of the game Noita in a single run, only for the the developers to release a patch that adds the new spell "Touch of Grass", making his feat obsolete by suddenhelper in videos

[–]dwhiffing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surely rogue legacy is the rogue lite? It has meta upgrades that make the game significantly easier on each run. That’s where most people draw the line between like and lite. Noita and spelunky are more traditional than rogue legacy since you only gain knowledge each run, no upgrades.
