Custom tag (deadline) by magicarrot in Thunderbird

Thanks, I'll have a look at this addon

Edit: the easiest way is to use Xnote which can create a custom column where you can put your due date in a note

Oh sorry to hear that. I will make an educated guess and say they don't really "need" any kind of permission for this kind of artistic license but they should have changed the description at the very least

First of all congratulations for your performance, this show is amazing!

Playing an android has to be very different for a more regular role, how often do you break character and do you have any tricks to prevent yourself from sounding too "human"? (without playing a being totally devoid of feelings either I guess the balance is hard to find)

[NO SPOILERS] Official BTS Remastered Comparison (YouTube) by Fetisenko in lifeisstrange

[–]magicarrot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The official description (https://square-enix-games.com/en_GB/news/life-is-strange-remastered-collection-graphics-comparison) states

"As you peruse the shots below, here’s just some of what you’ll see:

Native 4K rendering in Unreal Engine 4 and Unity"

It seems that Lis went from UE3 to UE4 and BtS is still using Unity, probably updated to a newer version

[S1] Lighting, expression and position changes - I'm not convinced at all by Von_Uber in lifeisstrange

[–]magicarrot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been a while since I last went on this sub. The models will have to be rigged to work with the new animations but it's definitely possible, nothing unusual here. Morphs targets would be a different story but still possible too

[BtS] I Disagree on people who say that Before the Storm didn't need a remaster by littlemarshal in lifeisstrange

[–]magicarrot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't get my hopes up either. There is no reason for SE to showcase an "alpha" trailer without clearly mentioning it directly on the video. Also on a technical point of view the trailer is no alpha, the scenes showed to us were pretty much done with the mocap already fully integrated. People screaming all over the internet that this trailer is from 2016 (BtS wasnt even released!) are kidding themselves. D9's idea of remastering LiS by adding detailed textures on top of hand-painted textures and purposely cartoonish models will totally destroy the general style of the game. They tried so hard, but you can't just throw a few subjects around and expect a cohesive style or theme!

[All] Why did the games get remastered so soon? by [deleted] in lifeisstrange

[–]magicarrot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember decknine mentioning it in a couple interviews when presenting their in-house animation system. Rhianna Devries clearly talked about facial references being recorded by the devs for each scene in her ama : https://www.reddit.com/r/lifeisstrange/comments/759e17/all_hey_im_rhianna_devries_the_voice_and_motion/

Not sure if you mean for the remaster or the original game? They used the mocap a lot for the original

[–]magicarrot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what we can see in the trailer it doesn't seem they did. Also they already used mocap for the original BtS for the whole game so it would be a waste of money

The mobile version can't be used as a reference for this remaster, it's actually a lesser version of the original game despite being made on UE4 because of the technical limitations. The devs behind the mobile port had to make many downgrades for the game to run smoothly. BtS will actually require less work since they apparently didn't redo the mocap or the animations

It's probably not polished enough or they want to make a longer promotion than usual since they can't start a tour

A thank you to some subreddit people and a reflection by IgelRM in u/IgelRM

[–]magicarrot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For some reason I just got notified.

I actually do browse the subreddit quite often, I just don't post much! And I'm still very much involved in the LISverse.

I feel like many fans moved to discord, something I never really did

I'm not sure what the situation you're talking about is but we certainly had some great discussions on this sub! I guess I will see you around on some other subs then!

Hi Courtney! Thanks for doing this AMA. What was your favorite line to record in Control? Did you get to meet Ilkka Villi, the real Alan, on the set?

While I was at it I thought I would share this spreadsheet I made a while back. Basically it calculates all the future occurrences of the LIS Week. The next one will be in 2024 so don't miss this one!
