/agdg/ - Amateur Game Development General

Trying to implement generic voxel cube procedural generation #4343434

I have no fucking idea what I'm doing

Fancy.

U wot? We've been acronymizing it since the start.

What happened to the recap guy?

I guess I'll try to find a fun idea within a scope of a 1MA.

Or get some chips with cider and watch Fight Club for the Nth time.

What do you mean? He comes the same time every week, tells you to post your progress, then collects it to a single image file.

Even though you are right, the recap guy had been replaced by another one. I don't know the reason behind that, but it's cool that someone had the balls to carry the torch.

You can check out the most recent one in the Google Documents folder.

Isn't he supposed to post the results though?

>in the Google Documents folder.
The wha?

Debating if upgrading to UE4.15 is worth it just for the foggy UI elements.

>tools.aggydaggy.com
>AGDG Google Docs
>drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B6j4pcv3V-vfb3hKSlhRRzlLbFE

And yes, he posted it.

>UE4 can't do outdoor environment
This looks crazy good

lol you actually use this site?

Who ever said that?

why shouldn't you?

Do people say that?

I uploaded the models from my Comfy Jam game as some user requested. Just the models and textures for the characters, since I doubt anyone cared about the others (rocks, trees, islands, etc).

Should I post the link somewhere else too?

looks like crysis

A lot of cryengine shills do, because that's the only thing that engine is good for.

Well, yeah. That's why someone is paying for the domain right? To use it.

Hopefuly I'll work a bit on some shaders for procedural terrain and water.

I don't get you, user. You seek the recap, but don't care about the website, the recap collection etc. I understand that you can not care about everything /agdg/ related, but I don't see the point in lolling those who do care.

I was so hyped for 4.15. Still no light functions for the "forward" renderer.

Thank you for sharing, user!

Mind if I upload it to the Google Docs folder?

oblivion movement

No problem, that's fine by me.

Based.

>Should I post the link somewhere else too?
It's fine there.

Why is UE4 going back to forward rendering when deferred rendering is the future?

Forward is just going to be an option for the games that benefit from it, it isn't going to be the main one.

deferred rendering was a meme, there's nothing you can't do better in forward

You haven't made it as a dev until someone's made porn of your characters

When using many lightsources the deferred rendering gives you much better performance.

If your game's only light source is the sun, then maybe forward rendering is the bettter option for you.

jokes on you, my game still doesnt have characters

We should shill agdg games on /h/ or /aco/ drawthreads to get more porn of them

Some user told me that this weapon was going to be useless, I disagree.

not true in 2017

do you even know what year it is?

no games use that many lights to begin with anyway, it's just a meme feature

deferred loses on every front

I can do it myself

that doesn't count

laser should be faster and it should be able to hurt you

Not specified in the first post, too late m8.

You haven't made it as a dev until someone likes the characters you created enough to make porn of them

You can't make yourself make it by drawing your own porn, that's not logic

>everything that exists has porn
>your game literally doesn't exist until it has porn
this is true and you know it

1. Many of Yandere Simulator's systems were scripted in inefficient ways, and I lack the expertise to refactor these systems properly. At some point in the future, I will require the assistance of a more experienced programmer to re-implement many of Yandere Simulator's core mechanics. Character AI is my weakest area, and is a huge part of Yandere Simulator.

2. I am unwilling to bring another programmer onboard the project right now, because refactoring so many parts of the game would most likely take an extremely long time (I'm estimating about 6 months) and I am unwilling to allow a delay of that magnitude to happen before the game's crowdfunding campaign, because a 6-month period without any hype would drastically damage the chances of a successful crowdfunding campaign.

3. I am very grateful towards every Patron who is generously supporting me, but the Patreon donations are actually a great deal of stress for me, because I feel an overwhelming amount of pressure to avoid disappointing my Patrons. I am heavily considering downgrading Yandere Simulator from a full-time job to just a hobby, because the task of making significant progress in a timely manner is proving to be extremely stressful and detrimental to my physical and mental health.

>You can't make yourself make it by drawing your own porn
You try and stop me if you think you can

So what changed in 2017?

The only art I have ever received was of a literal default cube

It was lovely.

Do devs really care about fan creations, not to mention if they are lewd?

I've seen fan arts get completely ignored before, and lewds which triggered the dev. It's like a total gamble from the artist's standpoint how will his work be perceived.

So he's self aware enough to know he's got problems but not competent enough to solve them?

What about lewd fanarts?

And you posted that because?

I'll consider it, need to tweak the damage output also.

>it should be able to hurt you
Not according to rain flush

Personally I'd take any art, innocent or lewd, as an honor
if someone cares enough about something I've made to create their own art based around it, that's a huge complement

I can understand devs not responding to every single thing they get though. I wouldn't personally get offended at porn but I know people who are anti-porn who would probably dislike it out of principle

i appreciate every piece i get, it's super rewarding to see someone else draw your stuff and i think most devs think the same
i'm sure people who get triggered by lewds only do it ironically

Ok so I need a bit of help with making a character look a bit more adult.
this is one of the MCs for my castlevania clone, her outfit is not final, I'm going to add a big fur coat that stops at her hips.
My issue is, she looks like a kid, and I want her to look a bit more ara ara~ (since she's a mom)

Any tips? I have a feeling it's mostly the head size.
I tried searching for models from Dracula X Chronicles for PSP for reference but for the life of me I can't find anything that works in blender

nothing it's been true for over a decade

Fanart is great

How much soda do you guys drink? Be honest

I literally haven't drank soda in 2 years

about a can a day

smaller head longer legs

head size but also shape, adult heads tend to be narrower while kid heads are rounder

1 can every 4-6 months I guess

Is Yanderedev autistic or does he just have a specific regional american accent? There's something about his drawl and intonation that I just can't stand

500ml per week or so, only when it's pizza day.

>yanderedev doesn't know how to make a state machine

how fucking embarrasing
it's literally just a fancy name for managing states with an enum rather than multiply horribly chained and nested ifs

a year ago I drank a can

I had at least 2L a day for a few years. Now I'm only on tea and natural juice.

wait what the fuck yanderedev's been using javascript this whole time?

how can one man be so incompetent, be aware he's incompetent, yet be too insecure to try and fix his problems without whining about it on youtube?

Is this one person?

3 years ago I saw a can at a store. Where is your game?

He's a weeb with a shitty unfinished game, what did you expect?

I'm venting a lot while slowly going through yanderedev's newest video if that's what you mean
I'll stop now

youtube.com/watch?v=CC0EnmKvEio

>Do devs really care about fan creations, not to mention if they are lewd?
I do. Anything fan made means someone liked my stuff enought to take the time to make something based on it.

well its just a mesh without any textures or materials and with pretty generic clothes wich i guess are going to be some sorth of aromur anyways
are you going for an anime style? because thats a thing with anime

about 1/365th of a cup a day

I find it so weird how he seems to be treating Yandere Simulator as if its anything other than a dumb meme game. Like, he's talking about crowd funding and hiring professionals and stuff as if he's making some sort of high budget epic adventure filled with lots of content and depth, when in reality its just a dumb meme game that got popular due to youtubers and kids.

post character receive fanart

I used to drink a lot of soda a couple of years ago. Lately I'm not enjoying sweet stuff too much so I switched to beer.

What are good camera controls? Currently I have WASD for x and z axis, scrollwheel for y, and shift+WASD to rotate.

Enjoy those bitch tits

>yanderedev thinks if he partnered with a company, them having 50% of the profit is unreasonable

how fucking dense can he be? How would he deal with working on a game with one other person if he was the one who came up with the idea, let alone a larger team?

why can't someone competent try and cash in on the anime fetish market so this guy gets his shit together?

Lots of anime porn games already exist, Yandere literally only got popular because of the constant controversies the dev drums up, not because it's a good game.

Why the fuck do these people overcomplicate things. People have been using mouse for rotation and WASD for movement for thousands of years now. Don't reinvent the wheel. You've got a mouse on pc so use it.

middle click + mouse gestures to rotate. edge scrolling

I've had maybe one soda in the past 3 years.
I used to drink like one can of soda daily. But I decided to just stop that. Now I drink water almost exclusively.

the main problem I can see is you've got your y axis rotation rotating around a focal point (with the camera being a radius distance away from that focal point), yet the x rotation is local to the camera's position rather than being based on the focal point like your y rotation. It should be one or the other

As far as controls go, what other controls are there for the game? It doesn't make sense using both the left and right hands for different aspects of the camera's movement if you still have to move the character as well

thanks my dudes, here's a bit of an update.
Scaled the head down a bit and made it just a bit thinner, lengthened her legs, and widened the hips a little.

Yes definitely, but I wasn't too happy with the shape. However I'll keep the shape for the daughter character later on.

You are cool guys then.

>not wanting bitch tits to fit better on his dev-wear

>drinking tap water which turns the frigging frogs gay
>poisoning yourself willingly with zinc
>having your testosterone levels reduced by the Big Water government conspiracy

well thats a big problem with anime, i suggest you look up designs by your favourite manga artists and try to figure out how they get around it
