anyone using UE 4.14? should I avoid it like the plague?

Why?

I get it

I'm using it, it´s pretty good

5th for comfy jam ideas pls

4.14 is stable and has a few nice features

don't ever upgrade a project mid-development unless there is a feature you absolutely need though

you're a tree

I read spooky things on the forums

dumb animeposter

What's going on? Can it be stopped? How?

I can't say I've ever had major problems upgrading mid project

hard mode: online multiplayer comfy game to play with agdg

>UE4 devs in charge of making well-behaved software

thanks for a good OP

What's the best way to make Webms?

works on my computer

Dumb "dumb animeposter"-poster

rename your .gif to .webm

>insistent on jam based off of shitty, amorphous concept
>subsequently can't think of jam ideas

wow

OBS to record video, Webm for retards to convert to webm.

Got the basics of an inventory system down as well as equippable items, weapon power now factors into the damage formula.

Also, does anyone know why my Fraps has suddenly started recording everything with an orange tint?

We get it, you like kpop and not comfy jam

How to make inventory

I record with OBS to get an mp4, then i use free online service to convert that mp4 to webm, then i use another free online service to convert that webm to a webm without sound so i can post it on Veeky Forums

the thing you're using to tint your screen orange at night time is probably what's tinting your screen orange at night time

Are there any agdg-related stats anywhere? I'd really like to see the ratio of posted games/dead games, how long the average game gets posted before disappearing, how many new games get posted every month, etc.
With all the autists ITT, one would think that someone would be scraping every thread to find this kind of info.

OBS to record + Xmedia Recorder

are you using f.lux?

>Also, does anyone know why my Fraps has suddenly started recording everything with an orange tint?

just another side effect of Trump's America

Suggest a better team, you dumb gookposter

fine, the A-Team

I was, and assumed that was the problem, but even after disabling it entirely it still records in orange.

i assume the user who said he was gonna refactor my code was lying to me

you pranked me good

>ratio of posted games/dead games
Like 100:99

Here's a recap from 6 months ago

>jam that makes you think and gets the creative juices flowing
How about that

If I want to hire someone to be a model for my game how do I make a contract?

anyone have any tips on how to make a game that exploits the mobile market?

i know mobile gamers generally like really simple stuff but i'm not sure how to proceed. any recommended reading or tips?

Hillaryfag blames Trump even though Obama has done nothing to improve Fraps his entire time in office. I'll never understand the delusions of the radical left.

wish I could make a game about raping girls

He has long left the country to release your code as his own. Never trust anyone.

RIP spider UE4 dev

F

I think about 4 of these games are still being posted here

has anyone seen anything of Dark Elf other than that one static image?

>Ancient Saga
>Placeholder Title
>Whimp the Bold
>Tactical RPG
>Project Wingman
>Ctesiphon
Decent for agdg standards.

It's closer to 5~6

Check back in 6 months

>once per hour someone posts "give me ideas for comfy jam" or "wat is comfy?"
What a wild river those creative juices form.

says more about the devs than the jam

> video games are about overcoming conflict
> humans find comfort in the absence of conflict

yeah can't imagine why that'd stump anyone

People ask that about every jam. Remember the two button Ludum Dare? People were asking shit like
>what does two buttons mean?
>is a mouse two buttons?
>if I have three buttons does that count as two buttons?
People are retards.

no it's just animeposters finding comfort in removing the absence of relaxed loli pictures in the thread

There is a problem here. The projectile doesn't match with the angle from the gun.

>when you have a sweet idea for comfy jam and others are struggling
Pretty comfy

>not filtering all jam-related "discussion"

no, i think literally all he posted was a few wip animations

Re-asking from last thread as suggested:
I got fired and got some dev time now but I have a question.
I want to make a 2d roguelike, I have a few years experience with unity, would it be better to switch and learn something new focused on 2d like game maker or stay with unity because I have experience with it even if its not the best for 2d?

I have literal heaps of ideas. This is bad

>being this thinned skinned
>on Veeky Forums
You're not gonna make it.

In learning on 4.14 myself. One thing I found that you shouldn't do is put SetLifeSpan() in the constructor of an actor instead of putting it in BeginPlay(). It sent my instance into a crash loop in the middle of the fps tutorial until I manually opened the VS project and removed it from the constructor.

They don't update these tutorials as often as they update the engine, do they?

Caves of Qud and Sproggiwood are made in Unity. CoQ is ASCII/simple tiles, while Sproggiwood has proper graphics.
I guess it's really just up to you. It can be done, so if you want to stick with it, then stick with it. But if you want to try something else I wouldn't recommend GameMaker, it's being outclassed by Godot.

When does Want GF Jam start?

>""""""""""""""""""""""""dev"""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Everytime until you learn to stop.

progress: my.mixtape.moe/skfeix.webm

>my.mixtape.moe/skfeix.webm

How do you export such high quality webm?

CoQ is one of my favorite ones, too bad most of the features are half implemented.
Will check out some of Godot for sure, thanks mate

>making an actual Roguelike in Unity
The memes have gone too far.

by making it 14mb, user

How do i make those pomf clickable webm links?

I suck at CoQ so I haven't gotten far. But I do love that it gets fairly large updates weekly. I bought it on sale during the Winter sale, had no idea the devs still worked on it so much.

Depends on what features you want out of it - you could remake Rogue using C without any non standard libraries using the terminal output.

For auto tiling you should do it by tile quadrant and not the whole tile at once. That cuts down the number of permutations to 2^5 at worst instead of 2^8.

Just use Unity. It's fine for 2D and it sounds like the thing you're most comfortable with.

I'm not sure what that means.

Auto tiling requires you take the eight surrounding tiles into account. Naively, this means 2^8 = 256 possible combinations (each tile is there or it isn't). If you split the tile into four quadrants (corners), you only have to take the three tiles at that corner into account. So 2^3 * 4 = 32 combinations.

Per favore aiutatemi

how do I into texture painting?

Confirming animations

What did you learn?

HELP I'M BEING WAR CRIMED

Assign the base colors as materials to your mesh. Bake the colors and Ambient occlusion to the UV then paint over the bake. Also increase the resolution.

...

Yes and?

k

I made these cannons for practice.
I learned just the basics of how to use it to animate with vectors, how to control timing curves, masking, layer order, linking
The webm I posted had quite low resolution I think, that's why I deleted that post so I can post this one instead.

...

cuddling with anna kendrick? goty

klink klink glug glug they're coming for you :)

What are the orbiting red stripes?

I asked when Want GF Jam is gonna start

Has it been canceled?

Peanut butter jam when?

You can't cancel something that never existed, user.

Why would you reply to the autistic shitposter? Don't give him attention.

anime game ideas?

Am I thinking of something different?

Need GF Jam maybe?

You were never a game dev. Take your forced memes and your pathetic attempts to validate yourself and fuck off.

knock knock this is the RCMP, open up

you're a 2000 year old vampire girl out on a saturday night trying to get laid but for some reason, everyone seems to treat you like you're 12
