@selkcip Sorry basic 3D transform math is illegal now

@Nifflas in almost any modern 3D application there is an object tree/scene tree. Is basic tramsform math that chlids inherit the transform of their parents. So yeah, Nintendo pretty much patented 3D graphics

I keep seeing the comment in the godot community that Baked Direct and/or indirect light is intended for low end devices and i don't really understand this perspective. In my opinion it can provide better light that real time ray tracing WHILE being less consuming. It should be your way to go if you are looking for detailed light unless you need other solution due to the nature of the game.

Am i missing something here?

@twilliability @djlink Only used it once years ago to ask something i don't remember about Game Dev code. Got 2 or 3 answer only telling me the site was for real programmers. I feel ashamed and never did it again.

This is Godot.

This is a 1.000 KG weight falling into a trampoline and launching my player up. No stuttering, no jitter, no problems. Not even sweating.

This is Godot Jolt and you can find it in here: https://github.com/godot-jolt/godot-jolt

If you were waiting for this to happen, why don't you go and try it yourself?

Boost appreciate to find people who help test this!

So #Meta has released it's new AI model. They claim is ethical and #opensource. Well, i don't think this is going to be a huge surprise for nobody, but contrary to the claims, it is not open source, is not ethical (They say, literally, that is ethical because it does not use meta users data... But it steal it from other places) and the licensing is just so chaotic that i have serious doubts it would hold in court. Read the paper, if you are willing to be treated like an idiot.

Is my birthday! I never thought i would live to see this day!

Let ME give YOU a gift! What about 8 CC0 Open source procedural materials for material maker?

Grab them for free or donate whatever you want!

Hi! I'm freeman, a neurodivergent game developer with no income focused on open source and this is the first release of my material library for Material Maker.

They can be used as they are or modify them to create more complex ones!

You can expect more materials and videos about procedural texturing.

Boost are REALLY appreciated.

I was going to make a pixelfed account but i think I'll wait. The creator is pushing towards extremely small communities (The default is 1.000 users). I truly believe that the idea of smaller communities being better for the fedi is actually hurting it. Negating the natural evolution of a community is never going to work.

YoSoyFreeman,
@YoSoyFreeman@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@Haijo7 That's a totally fair point. That said, i think we should try to balance things a little bit. For example, while this improves decentralization, it hurts people like me who only use local timelines cause we are into a specific topic and don't want to see stuff not related to it. In my case, for mental health. 1.000 users is too few, in my opinion. I'm okay with keeping an eye on the issue, but maybe not TOO much restrictions.

Made in Godot.

Will be part of open-source FPS demos.

@gdquest The motion looks really great! The only thing is that the view lines of the pose and the reticle are not align in the rest pose.

Have a good day!

@YoSoyFreeman@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@bloodaxe @gdquest
Glad to help! Even if you spawn bullets from the camera, human brain is pretty good at trajectory calculation. if the barrel does not align with the reticle makes the first person elements feel disconnected from the world. Whats why quake have the weapons in the middle. You wanna keep the trick :D

Programming under missiles and air defense operations.

Already a tradition, only night comes, star wars appear in the sky. I have a double feeling, I want to look out the window and it's scary. Explosions are scary. The sound comes with a delay, so sometimes I see a rocket flying quietly, hitting something, and then only the sound of flight and explosion

I'm going to say it: Mastodon UI is one of the best i ever used. Yes, it can be improved, but is still better than any 3º party app.

@YoSoyFreeman@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@fell exactly my same experience.

j, to fediverse

Still amused by all the posts declaring that "#Mastodon will never get any traction" because it doesn't have [insert completely unnecessary Twit feature here]. It's like people think Masto just suddenly appeared out of the ether six months ago. It's been here for years, and it's just fine. 😂

Working hard on improving my in-house tools used to release game assets. I've got software that automatically exports and puts sprites into sheets, 3D model merging, optimization, exporting and more. Hoping this will help me reach my goal; release a new #gameassets pack weekly.

YoSoyFreeman,
@YoSoyFreeman@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@kenney Hi kenney, could i ask you something? I'm creating a full open source PBR material library to help others and maybe get some donations cause i have no income. The thing is i can not offer updates that quick and I'm suffering a lot because of that. I don't want to make people loose time or made myself look incapable.

I'm a disabled person trying to fight and i'm a bit scared.

Any tip about how to deal with this feeling? I was very happy but now i fear my work is not good enough.

YoSoyFreeman,
@YoSoyFreeman@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@JD557 @kenney Thank you so much. I needed to hear that.

I would love to have a more stable income, but the reality is that i never had one. I tried really hard.

Making games is the only thing I'm good at. But never had a chance to study or work. So after a full life i decided that if nobody want to give me a chance i will do it for free. I hope this serves me as a portfolio to enter the industry at some point.

Until then, every buck is a world for me.

Anyone have any advice regarding Blender updates and backwards compatibility issues?

I've been trying to open a project that opens fine on 3.4 but completely crashes with no error message on 3.5. The only possible issue I can think of is that I have a hair particle simulation on that project compared to others on my system.

YoSoyFreeman,
@YoSoyFreeman@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@eoinoneillPDX When i had those problems i used to try appending the old file into a new one. It usually works. If not, i start appending parts of the file until i append the one that breaks it.

Tedious, but usually works.
