Hello, thread. Parrying works perfectly now, pretty much all of the player's controls are in place. Now I just have to tweak them so that it feels slick.

The last time I posted progress about my game, someone said something like ">using le dark souls hud"
and I'll say my response again so more people can read it. I'm a novice, this is my first game I've ever created. When you're first starting out it's easier if you work with what you know, so my copy of the bloodborne hud is there to help me learn how to make everything work easier. My philosophy is, if I can make it work like the real bloodborne hud does, then I'll know how to successfully make my own hud out of it. Hopefully that's a good explanation of my feelings on the matter.

I'm trying to do what you've just said, but I have no idea how to achieve it. Jelly-dev said earlier that all he does is draw the stuff in PS, then Unity does the rest of the work (basically). I'm using SDL at the moment, and I'm struggling to how to get my stuff into it without any loss of quality.

>>148310812

yeah man. it's like we were on 4chan or something.

What's the best way to determine whether two areas are overlapping in Unity? I don't want them to have any physics interaction or collision or anything, I just need them to know that each other is there.

>>148310812
It's a character from one of AGDG's games, Idol Commander or w/e

>>148310514
Why is one nipple super obvious but the other is completely invisible!

>>148311253

There's no way to do this for arbitrary shapes without using OnTriggerEnter. Not even other engines can do this without using physics colliders in some way.

I redid a bunch of the save/load code for NPCs in order to fix a bug where the names of everything would get fucked up.

Cons:
- I can no longer dynamically spawn an NPC and save it
- Have to reload the whole level before re-initializing it, instead of just re-creating all the dead characters

Pros:
- The bug is fixed
- File size dropped 30%

Neither:
- No longer delete and respawn all living NPCs on load... now it just deletes dead NPCs

It could still use some work but I'm pretty sure it's now functional enough to cover all the things I need for the final demo version.

>>148311514
Is there a way to make a physics collider that phases through everything, including other physics colliders?

>>148311541
I like it! He looks tired. Where did my post go

>>148311253
If you don't want to use colliders, maybe try comparing the Vector3.magnitude of both positions?

Another thread, another free released 2D or 3D cute girl hope.

>>148311546
also this is probably my last progress post for a week or two. I won't be dead, just traveling a bit

>>148311667
Sent ;)

>>148311647
And if they got a Renderer, adjust those positions with bounds.extents
But you should just use colliders.

>>148311468
>>148311653
Dang, can you post it again on discord or somewhere? Would like to see high-res.

>>148311665
I already entertained the notion of comparing the coordinate position of both objects, but the problem is that there's no way in Unity to get a list of all objects at a particular location.

If I've got an object at (1,1,0), it has no way to "look" for an object at (2,1,0). I'd have to loop through every object in the scene, and check its transform.position to see if it matched (2,1,0).

I can't think of something that doesn't involve Physics.
That's probably because people had this problem before, thought of a solution and then crammed it into the Physics namespace, lol.

>>148311653
Why was it deleted? Had to go to the archve to see it, but looks great man.

>>148312089
I think what I'm probably going to have to do is make an object that just serves as a way to reference a set of coordinates, make a matrix of them with their position in the matrix based on the coordinates they're spawned at, and then have each one hold a list of anything that occupies the same coordinates as it.

>>148311647
You can customize your layers in Unity.

>>148311667
You should provide the exact specifications of what you are looking for, friend.

>>148312296
Are you by chance making a map/grid that holds all objects and their coordinates? It sounds pretty much like that.

Where can i find a guide to get started with GameMaker? I just want to know the basics of how it works.

>>148311647
If the collider is a trigger it shouldn't collide with anything.

>>148312708

How'd you learn /agdg/?

I don't think I'll be able to make a game with ECS. I'm just not good enough at coding. Maybe I should stick to bad methods until I get better... I'm not sure

>>148313437
I already forgot what exactly you were trying to do again. Whoops. My attention span & memory is that of a child, haha.

>>148313551
I was told to stay away from inheritance from a base game object class and was shown ECS and systems like that, but I don't think I'm good enough to implement any.

I don't have a crazy huge amount of experience making games and I'm not an expert at coding so maybe I should stay away from it and just use whatever works until I get better maybe

>>148313580
>different pixel resolutions
>character blends into background
>awkward color ramp for background
>no parallax for background
gross

At what scope do C# scripts operate? If I make a class in one script, and then a child class in another script, will they work fine while occupying two unrelated objects?

Is there any point to using the object hierarchy outside of binding the position/rotation/scale of the children to the parent?

>>148313647
If it was Unity, I'd just create a Monobehaviour and add that component.
Same thing, really. ECS is just an object made up of a bunch of objects strung together.

But hey, whatever is simple and works is probably a good thing.

>>148313647
you got trolled

just use whatever you can to make it work

>>148313924
If you instantiate 2 objects and add the parent/child class to them respectively, they'll work just fine.

And if you use SendMessage/SendMessageUpwards/Broadcast they'll try to call a method in the component in this object/all parents/all the children respectively. It uses the hierarchy.

That's neat and all, but is that really enough money to develop the game to completion full time?
That'd only be enough money for three months at the average cost of living.

>>148314029

to be honest I took a semester class in 3D modelling in maya and every minute I kept going "but I could do x easier in blender"

>>148315348
Did the math just now. That's 27 months of living expenses for me. That's even living pretty comfortably (eating well, keeping clean, exercising, going out once a month).

>>148315348
he's huehue though so 7k is like 10 years of living expenses for him

why are you guys still awake dont you have work

>>148315376
you said that yesterday :o

>>148315348
>>148315348
not that this guy did that, but people are doing some sketchy shit. there was a bigger game recently that just canceled their product because they ran out of money and admitted they under-asked just to make sure they would get money, and expected to make the real amount they needed from stretch goals. so they megascammed everyone

>>148315348
Eh I could live off of that for 8 months here in Canada with all my bills and rent covered (Though I have a roommate so it makes rent easier)

it's really not difficult, it's a tiling window manager with some buttons, menus and hotkeys

the problem is shit like your image is a poorly formatted list of hotkeys only, of course it's gonna be confusing, if you gave an overview of maya only in terms of hotkeys it'd be fucking confusing too

did the falling down, landing and standing up into defensive stance animations

I'm not sure if I want to go for a slicker metallic look or if I go full US flag texture like on the far right. Will see tomorrow while I work on the cockpit and controls.

>>148315348
The game was solid already when he got the money, he could have released it then

>>148315881
The problem isn't the number of hotkeys, it's that Blender goes directly against standards set in every major 3D app used in the industry. I don't see why they went and fucked with simple things like pan, rotate, etc.

really not that hard to get used to, does maya and max do this the exact same way too? Don't think so. the most useful hotkeys are very mnemonic, the rest you can search for with space

remake it and make it cuter than before with what you have learned

Hideo Kojima is not even a real developer. All he does is go on travel vacation and sending tweets all day. He is a hack and has never laid one finger on one of "his" game. I bet he doesn't even know what his game is about, everything is done by his employees while he is having vecation time.

Right in the fetishes.

>>148316247

>>148316289

When you transition from one thing to another?

current_number =Lerp(current_number, goal_number, lerp_time)

>>148316230
As far as Maya, Houdini, and a few in-house tools we use, I have never had any problems just intuitively clicking buttons to navigate where I wanted to go.

First experience with Blender was spending a while wondering what the fuck left-click did, trying to figure out how to select things, wondering why the thing I just selected is randomly moving around in 3D space even though I didn't click/drag any manipulators, and then spending a few minutes trying to figure out how to get the camera to where I wanted it to go.

If it's the first thing you learned it's probably fine, but I have no training at all with commercial tools and never had any issue at all learning the basics.

What is the LEAST furry animal I can use for my main character?

Caveat: it MUST have fur.

>>148316289
example: never, it doesn't even make any sense

what the fuck is inverselerp?

>>148316289
For a healthbar, maybe?
If you have c=min hp and d=max hp and val=current hp, it gives you something between 0 and 1 for your Lerp.
So if a is your minimal healthbar length and ba the max length, you'll set it to the current hp value.

if you dont try them based soley on appearance you wont find the one that actually cares about the concept.....case in point i just watched the one about an art club that i thought was gonna trick me like the others but it actually gives a shit. very surprised and excited. hopefully it wasnt merely an ep1 trick to get me excited to keep watching bullshit

It's good, I'm reading the manga. Fun shit.
But new game is good too. Complaining about the lack of gamedev is like saying they don't play enough music in K-On.

>>148321407
Which art one?
>only watched ep1
You got hooked by jap tricks.

But you don't go into <hobby> animes looking for all hobby. They're all just a feelgood series with a topic you like. And you may or may not learn or take away tidbits from it. But it's mostly a non-series thing.

just finished my nightly game #10

https://hephaestus_rg.itch.io/flappy-steven

ran out of time for sound or balance testing, but it's an ok game

A Zelda game with hentai content. The Hero can have sex with the girls he meets and get them pregnant, eventually leading to have kids when inevitably going 7 years into the future.

Hero then has to save his kids from evil villains.

If you want free game ideas, read JoJo

>>148321582
Yes, Japan already did that, it's called Rance.
Rance Souls W H E N

I have no idea how to structure a game. Class-wise etc. Anywhere I can read up on this?
I know I'd have classes for separate game objects but that's about it.

What is this nightly game thing? It's just a challenge for yourself to see if you can finish something over a night? Or is it an organized thing somewhere like a jam?

I'm happy for your success, nonetheless.

How do you guys record webms of your games?

>>148321686
I know but Rance is more of a Visual Novel than a game.

>>148321702
that depends what type of game you have. if you need to store multiple values together and perform a variety of functions on them, it should probably be a class

but you could probably google a tutorial for any of the basic game types to get an idea

>>148321710
kind of both. i post a theme every night before 6pm pacific time.

if anyone's up for the challenge they're free to join in on it.

i've made games of varying degrees of completeness and fun

last 10 days of games here: https://hephaestus_rg.itch.io/

>>148322653
K-On's animation has lower quality when you put it side b y side with other stuff by Kyoani, just compare any K-On guitar playing scene with Haruhi's one.
A real eyecandy series by the same studios, despite its flaws, was Kyoukai no Kanata, but they did invest a shit more of budget on that want to make it a recap feature film later.

Now to avoid off topic. Is the aggydaggy owner ded too?
Just noticed it's stuck on Demo Day 9 and May's recap.

Hey AGDG, do you enjoy fully customizing your character with a massive amount of (frequently forgettable) equipment?
Or would you rather choose from a (much smaller) array of unique, polished character classes that still let you decide a few specializations?

I'm stuck on a lil' AI problem. I've finally got pathfinding down but I'm just having trouble getting an enemy to actually follow the path. At the moment I've got a deque of tile co-ordinates which go back to where it needs to go. Trouble is that this if is happening the moment the enemy reaches the tile it needs to go to, I want it to happen a little later so it doesn't get stuck on walls like in the webm. How can I do this?

>>148324545
Well, it's a hard question to answer.
Having shit load of items is only good, I think, if they have a secondary purpose. Like in WoW, where you know that if you want to get the [Nose Picker of Forgotten], then you have to go to a very specific place and do a very specific thing. It gives a weapon some lore, and it makes you explore areas and the world in general.

However in games like Diablo, the weapon doesn't really matter. It's just basically another XP bar which you fill up with your time. If you kill enough shit, you might get something which gives +2 dmg. Same goes for item shops: basically in games where you have to upgrade your equipment with buying stuff, gold is just another XP bar.

If you can not find out anything interesting for the weapons, and just want to go on the random loot path, then I would say don't do that, and just make your characters interesting instead.

Cherrypick us a scene from K-On with good animation. Are you saying you cant compare animation quality of two shows just because they have different budget? That doesn't make sense. They are both animation. And MADOX-01 is from 1987. Surely animation with newer technology should be superior right? So the fact that newer anime looks worse than almost 30 years old anime makes it even worse.

So now you don't even think this objectively but you just prefer anime girls over mecha, so shows with anime girls are automatically better than mecha shows.

Also CGI mecha shows are small percentage and they are garbage.
