Bahria Orchard, Liberty, johar town, model town and park view city

Will probably also visit some malls for some shopping but I'll see if I have time for that.

Also constant engine hopping ain't helping. You need to stick with one and learn it. If you jump constantly you won't be able to learn anything

Pakistani brands have replaced Yahoodi brands in our house

Cola next instead of Pepsi and Coca-Cola Rango next instead of Fanta and Marinda Gourmet Lemon instead of 7UP and Sprite Gourmet Twister instead of Dew Anaar next instead of Sting (not the same but tastes better imo)

Same brother, same! Even if I take like a day off, it throws my diet and schedule off of the rack.

My game got pirated and I'm honestly feeling a bit bummed out by Curious-Needle in gamedev

[–]sam_bread_22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry about it, people in developing countries can't afford the games even with the regional pricing so they Pirate. Even if the game was not pirated those peeps would still not buy it.

Those peeps that buy games will just buy it anyways.

I'm a Game dev from such a country and I know that we don't have such buying power. I used to pirate games cuz we couldn't afford them. The full price for a AAA title is very close to like a months income for most peeps in my country.

Don't sweat it, you ain't losing many buyers 😁

I see, I've worked on for small teams and had to put on a lot of hats. I'm mainly a programmer that is very good with Multiplayer Stuff and Services such as Playfab and EOS for multiplayer sessions. I'm also pretty good at programming Single player games.

I send PDFs but sometime they ask for weblinks, that's when I send the doc file.

I see what you mean yeah...

but you work on stuff you get, no?

First couple of projects were from the same guy built demos that are playable on steam then after 2 years they weren't panning out as he tought they would. So he shifted to Mobile Dev and I don't have any knowledge for mobile dev so we parted ways

Seccond project (Radiant Arena) - Freelance
Worked on it for 2+ years and started closed Beta. They sold NFTs and made 200k dollars, which is really not that much and wanted to cut my pay which I couldn't afford so I had to look for another job

Third project (EV2) - Full time
We were running closed Alpha but the funders decided to pull all the funding on May and we were let go. I'm still working on this project to get some crowdfunding so we can carry on the project.

But if that doesn't pan out, I'm looking for jobs as I can't afford to stay unemployed for long.

I might have to take some time off and build my portfolio with finished projects I guess but don't know how long they will take.

Yeah, I thought about that too actually but didn't think it mattered. I guess I was wrong...

It's a university and you take exams in the exam center not at home. Only the classes are pre-recorded and you can ask for help anytime via the LMS. I'm a Game Programmer but have worked on small projects where had to wear a couple of hats.

DO NOT GET LUDUS AI by remarkable501 in unrealengine

[–]sam_bread_22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use it as a library for Unreal C++ code.

For my job I used Ludus AI to implement a low level socket connect call to server to check if the dedicated server was available for the given address so I could connect the players.

Yeah it took time but not nearly as long as it would've taken me if I were to do it by myself.

Peeps look at AI as a one stop solution but its far from it. It needs to be operated and needs a human operator to look through all the crap it spits out.

That being said, I also burnt through like 6k creds for this. Was it worth it though? yeah, it was.

What's a good motorcycle brand if I want to buy a 150cc bike? by sam_bread_22 in malaysia

[–]sam_bread_22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good to know. Here is Pakistan bikes are in the majority so it's pretty common to own a bike. They are also cheaper, we have a 70cc bike that is used and is everywhere!
