stablehost just announced a unilateral 60% price hike to all of their customers

after 7+ years of service, i'm done.

i've been waiting for an excuse to dump my hosting with them, and it's finally here ๐Ÿฅ‚

@pikuma While funny, kind of interesting that we have various syntax highlights through color, but is there anything which highlights using font size? Like specific template snippets would result in bigger text. Comment regions would be Headings. Etc.

if you're into "Pixel Art 3D" please try my Blender add-on "Pixel Unwrapper"

been using it for a while, and it's at a point where I can just smash "Unwrap" and no longer need manual touch ups! (after adding seams)

(also get in touch because I might need help soon )

@noio Big fan of it ๐Ÿ™‚ Haven't used it a lot yet, but from my brief trial it was really easy to pick up and worked just straight out of the box.

If you ever have a chance I would love to see 2-3 examples of you your pipeline for no-UV to fully textured mesh -- particular the texturing!

@noio that was my impression as well โ€” as a complete newbie I would just love to see the full flow. Even just a basic barrel or whatever could be worth a ton!

@noio Niceee! I'll check that out a little later.

Calling . I would love to explore a more graph-based internet community form.

I was thinking about how posts and comments onFacebook, Reddit, etc. is so short-lived. Forum fixes this, but things can also be quite detached from each other. Ex. News about an event can come in multiple threads -- what if we could follow the trend of this, especially after many years.

I am thinking of something like a knowledge graph like Obsidian, but for internet communities.

@jalict@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@voxpelli The discoverabiltiy of those are very manual and does not really create the overview I am looking for.

I would love to explore a more graph looking visualisation/representation of this information.

I guess one could create the representation with existing material. I was just looking for a front-end that already tried doing so.

So I have this years-old iCloud Photos album I use for design inspiration. 3200 images and videos. Iโ€™ve tried various methods of tagging and categorising them, but itโ€™s painful.

Is there a tool that will categorise them for me, or let me search through them with natural language? Doesnโ€™t have to be perfect, but has to be better than a bleary-eyed me manually going through all of them.

you ever think about how humans are totally blind to the color alpha but haven't questioned why we reserve a color channel for it anyway

I was reading about resource/asset packing file formats game engines use, and it seems that the answer always is "ad-hoc engine-specific binary format".

I'm starting to think that I'll just slap a zip file in here and be happy.

Getting rid of crap data - Gerry McGovern:
https://gerrymcgovern.com/getting-rid-of-crap-data/

I've seen pushback against this being effective climate action, but I'd say it is something easy to do individually (or as small groups) that could reduce manufacturing demand. Which makes it worth doing, as long as we don't stop here!

I understand McGovern is intimately familiar with this waste...

Any way to see all patch notes between two Unity Editor versions?

I've mentioned this on the other platform, but here are two games I'd really like to exist. They're sorta opposites. Both are for two players.

A: A competitive Tango dancing game, where both dancing partners are assassins trying to kill each other during the dance

B: A cooperative pro wrestling game, where neither player are trying to actually defeat the other, but just trying to put on a really good show for the audience, building suspense & creating payoffs

jalict,
@jalict@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@Nifflas Toribash is the answer to both of these for me.
