None of my assets are working with lighting in Unity properly. Every guide I'm using just says you need to set the object to static, but it doesn't work for my models. It only wants to work with Unity's default objects. Is there some crucial step that I'm missing?
Kayden Powell
Do they have UV maps?
Adrian Reyes
So how fruitless is it truly to try and one man a MMO?

Gonna start separating level generation from player stats to enable actual level progression (something I should've done from the start).
Cameron Cruz
Yes, just plain placeholder textures though. Not sure if there's a bunch of other things I need. None of the guides touch that part.
Joshua Cook
I'd say over 80,000 fruitless units

What is the most used graphics/game library/SDK for android game development? What is the most used graphics/game library/SDK for iphone game development? Is there a library/language that supports both? The only thing i can think of is C++/SDL. Is it better to develop your game on android first and than port it over?
Trying to create a game entirely by yourself is difficult. I can code just fine, but having to teach myself how to draw and make a decent story and compose music is stressful. Does anyone have advice for this kind of thing?
Anthony Morris
Post a screenshot of your scene etc

I've been debating whether the train should be physics based, or have 'perfect' motion travelling along a spline/equivalent.
I'm leaning towards the latter, I don't trust game physics to reliably follow a track, and it bugging out would be pretty uncomfy.
Am I wrong? I can still fake acceleration on slopes and whatever.

When I import a Blender model into Unity, some of the faces don't appear. I've recalculated normals but it keeps happening.
Jack Allen
1. unity reads blend files directly 2. turn on backface culling in blender, sometimes recalculate fails, probably because of shitty topology or duplicate verts somewhere
Nicholas Kelly
>Does anyone have advice for this kind of thing? Story/plot when youre in bed art when youre stuck on a programming problem. Final art can be last and iterating placeholders is dumb. and music can be a level by level basis. as long as youre making consistent progress, youre fine
Gabriel Moore
you don't even have a train
Jacob Ramirez
It's a toy train set, use your imagination
Brayden Sullivan
How about using physics but locking it to the axis the train is currently moving along?
Carson Thomas
is there any reason you'd need physics in the game ?
if not then why add a mechanic to your game that's only going to make it more expensive resource wise ?
Luke Fisher
How do people find people who would want to work with them on a project? Is there some sort of environment I'm unaware of where people get together to make games?
Asher Brown
Bet you feel pretty silly now.
Yeah I could do a mix of the two, where it'll follow a spline but still wobble and bounce a bit.
Fair point. People might like the train to be able to fly off the track, meme physics and all that, but I guess that goes against the overall theme.
Owen Watson
you could fake the wobble just as easily
theres really no reason for full physics here

Logan Hill
the downside to not using physics is that you'll have to code some behaviours by yourself, such as acceleration, deceleration, that kind of thing but it'll be worth it.

How export bone scaling animation from blender? How is bone formed?

Why does going back to sleep feel so much better than working on my game?
Landon Brooks
People to work with you in a project? At paid jobs.
My projects are my own and I 1MA them. I already do enough teamwork to pay for my living expenses.
Hunter Hall
make a game about sleeping

William Jenkins

that's a nice track builder you got there btw

If you change anything in the OP autists start flailing their arms.
Cameron Gonzalez
Anybody who actually did some mobile game development point me in the right direction? If you're given a large sum of cash to make a mobile game. Where do you start?
Oliver Smith
literally no-one starts flailing their arms at swapping out demodays and arm flailing at changing jams is rare
Ethan Davis
unity is great for mobile dev
Easton Garcia
iphone will make you more and the piracy of rooted vs jailbroken is much higher
Aaron Ross

Kevin Moore
I'm not scared of actual programming though. Even if it requires raw EGL. Wouldn't it make most sense to develop the android game in java using android SDK? And for iphone, using objective-c or swift using xcode? My question is, what do most gamedevs use?
In the end it has to work on both iphone and android so it doesn't really matter which comes first.

Gavin Watson
Made the attacks shorter in general
Colton Powell
Webm didn't get added, weird.
Anyway, added some more stuff, continued to up the juice, and made the attacks shorter so it changes up more often.
Sebastian Torres
I'm trying to design a magma insect kinda thing, but I'm at a loss as to what to do with the head and legs. Any suggestions?
Caleb Anderson
pretty sure unity is the most popular by far. ubisoft uses it for mobile dev, nintendo does, blizzard does, popcap used it for pvz heroes etc basically every good mobile game has been made in unity. unity makes testing really easy and you can easily build for every platform, including pc and consoles.
Colton Moore
literally what
Leo Brown
??????? I don't really see any
Charles Lee
I'm serious about this question BTW. I want to know before investing time and money into the project
Jayden Diaz
I finally fixed the sitting down bug, now to make my beautiful daughteru some clothes
Xavier Garcia
The only reason a person would post that on Veeky Forums of all places is as a cry for attention, which you are giving him so it worked.
1. You cannot make enough content alone. 2. Dealing with the net bull and server shit will melt you. 3. MMOs are on the way out.
Make a design doc of the idea and then file it away in case you ever become zillionaire.
Colton Roberts
I'll take your word for it. Its disheartening but I'm enough of a realist to accept the reality.
Instead, what sort of game should solo developers try to make? Point and click games? Simple shooters? What?
Thomas Lopez

Logan Hall
emojis are qt :)
Luke Sullivan
anything that doesn't require a massive playerbase, complex new programming, lots of content, or prohibitive server costs
John Ramirez
You're acting like there is no middle ground and by not making an MMO, you're making pong.
You can make complex video games as a solo developer, just not one with hundreds of hours of hand made content designed to handle thousands of players.
Jayden Watson
Did some odd staircasing.

Nice antichamber clone.
Camden Phillips
Pretty cool
What happens if I dig through it though
Justin Torres
Alright, thanks for the heads up.
I was just feeling really nostalgic towards City of Heroes the last few days so I was thinking about making an MMO and shit. The new Resident Evil is pretty cool, maybe I'll use that for inspiration. Time to make game.
Connor Morris
Indie first person horror games are pretty common, I hope you have some plans to make it special
Isaac Cooper
Giving the player a gun and actual gameplay beyond random jumpscare simulator x100 or run and hide amnesia clone is already pretty original.
Charles Wright
unlike you >:^)
Colton Jackson
Made sure you can't in this case - would probably have the current state no longer modifiable otherwise, leaving only one of the paths open.
Jeremiah Powell
pls take that back i am a delight

How do I make engine
Leo Williams
gameenginebook.com/ Will give you a good starting point to then do your own research into how exactly you want to implement things (or if you maybe just want to use libraries).
