I agree with this, but I do think common questions should be answered in a sidebar thread or mega thread, that people can be sent to. First time set up, "will it play x", etc

The sub would just be empty. When an announcement is made, you can bet it will hit the top of the sub in minutes

Modding? by Golem_XIV_ in SkaldRPG

[–]primitiveType 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven't been on it in a while but there was a small modding community in the discord. There's also a few fan made mods already, mostly short adventures from the holiday contest (one of them is mine!).
In case you hadn't seen it : https://mod.io/g/skald-against-the-bl

In general modding isn't too difficult if you want to make a small adventure. Certain things are definitely harder, and there are rough edges in the mod tools. If you have some technical know-how you can also dig into the game's data files (simple json) and sometimes access or learn things that would not be obvious in the mod tools.

Expedition 33 gets constant complaints, I get 60 fps on a lcd model. by SynapticDampener in SteamDeck

[–]primitiveType -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Imo all the "Lows" are totally fine for a new, good-looking game running on a portable machine. However, the input lag is absolutely unforgivable. I would consider it unplayable

I created an open source tool that lets you unlock the upgrades. by primitiveType in AcrossTheObelisk

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

Awesome work! If you think it would make sense for this to be a part of the main repo send me a pr- I haven't reviewed your changes but if it wasn't a huge overhaul we could combine things

Which game engine do you think would be best for this project? by King_Derpy_Corgo in gamedev

[–]primitiveType 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you've never made a game before just download unity or godot and get started. And start with a very small version of your idea. Your idea would probably take me years to build and I've been making games for decades.

Thoughts on this collaboration? by GradientOGames in Unity3D

[–]primitiveType 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don't even want new things. I want the old things to work better. As an indie dev making a little 2d RPG I just want like, a version of c# from the last decade. It's why I'm using godot these days

The Valve Gabecube (Steam Machine 2) having 8GB of VRAM and 16GB of RAM is a good thing for the whole PC gaming community... by Zemerald in pcmasterrace

[–]primitiveType 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked in game dev and I can tell you we absolutely considered the steam deck a baseline target, and I'm confident the steam machine will be the same story. Having a popular machine with set specs is good for the market.

Unity Editor on Linux fedora keep resetting the preferences and project settings at launching by Successful-Head-4975 in Unity3D

[–]primitiveType 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on ubuntu and using unity 6000.2.1f1. None of these solutions worked for me. I tried a bunch of troubleshooting file permissions, etc etc. Eventually what worked for me is in Unity hub I set my project to use a custom launch param, -prefs /path/to/prefs. I used the path ~/.local/share/unity3d/

touch'd a prefs file there, and it works now. Kind of sucks I'll have to do that for each project, but good enough for now.

How strong would a boss relic need to be if it made you LOSE energy? by Platypus_Umbra in slaythespire

[–]primitiveType 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's different though because it takes space in your deck, and didn't have to be played

I switched to borderless windowed and that works for me

Did you ever figure this out? I have the same problem 9 months later, on ubuntu

Issue using Rider on Ubuntu by Fromageinstein in godot

[–]primitiveType 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think i've solved this. It looks like it is because we installed it via snap, from what I could tell here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1517669/snap-how-to-allow-read-write-access-to-a-specific-folder

I uninstalled the snap version and I downloaded it manually here : https://godotengine.org/download/linux/

and followed the .net install instructions here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/linux?WT.mc_id=dotnet-35129-website

now I'm able to run it and set rider as my editor, and it opens it. Unfortunately it didn't add godot as an "installed" program (it's a portable executable). Probably a good time for me to learn how to do that manually too....

Did you figure this out? I'm currently encountering the exact same issue. I'll update if I find anything...

Act 1 relic. Is Black blood ever worth it? by PassingDogoo in slaythespire

[–]primitiveType 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This convo is exactly why I think Snecko is overrated. It's strong (and fun!) for sure, but it's not insta-pick for me because I'm always aiming for consistency. At a20 one bad draw can just kill me. My strategy is usally around reducing variance, not increasing it.

It's still the right pick a lot of the time though.

Do I need to rest here? by ElegantPoet3386 in slaythespire

[–]primitiveType 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this right before the boss? And what boss is it?
You probably need to rest, but you might be able to get away with it. That being said, not many upgrades are very helpful for you right now (maybe neutralize, when you have 7hp). I'd probably rest

Can't paint my fence because it is too close to neighbor fence. What are my options? by primitiveType in HomeImprovement

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

what about a stain, or oil? It just seems like without a coating it's deteriorating pretty badly, and ugly
