>UE4 is a good engine

UE4 Shouldn't be on the list, way too much overhead compared to other engines and most of the time useless except for the average "look at these graphics!!!" with horrible optimization and even more bugs.

EG; You haven't been able to use the orthographic camera for almost two entire years now because it doesn't actually work. I personally tried three times getting into the engine but each project barely got off the ground because all the issues.

Maybe once UE4 has matured in a few years it'll be a decent engine for creating games but right now its nothing but fancy graphics.

Stealth is incredibly hard to do right, and mark of the ninja is one of the few games that does it right I guess.

I'm thinking of letting them be able to ask for specific items, specific flavors which can be inherent to an item or added to an item, or a combination of the two

>>151017025
the problem with stealth is that you spend 50% of your time waiting, while you KNOW what you have to do

>>151017281
waiting in a high pressure situation is suspenseful though

This seems to work better in 3d than 2d.

This happens in every game engine and is a massive problem for commercial projects. This is the main reason many studios only use in-house engines despite the development costs.

you iterate over your item container looking for the id of the item you'd like to increase the count of and then you increase the count

>>151018841
basically the constraints haven't been fine tweaked to the point of absolute stability yet, they have to be perfect or else the characters joints create a feedback loop of spazzing causing them to spontaneously explode. i'm leaving all the constraints loose for now until the movement and combat are to my liking.

How do you guys like this style of outlining? I think I might break up the armor into more outlined pieces to make it easier to tell what you can click on to destroy.

>>151019817
Axe outlines way too jaggy.

>these reasons are fucking stupid
i dont like this reasons that will make my final game look and play like shit and make my devving even more frustrating than using another engine because i say so.ok anon
how about physics in viewport are different from final game even with fixed physics steps(so you need to package final game multiple times and takes from 1 to 3 minutes based on your rig)
how about ue4 using his custom AA that looks like shit?
how about cant even create an async loading screen
how about using "if" renders 2 copies of the shader creating a huge workload on gpu for no reason?(using a bool inside a parameter collection could solve this but no you need to create a workaround)
how about particle system takes so much gpu that makes your game run at 2 fps

even AAA title made in unreal run like shit.
>>151018526
yes and thats a good reason to stick with a more stable engine that actually fixes bugs before adding more useless stuff

>>151019192
lol what a shit degenerate you are! Here's a (you) go kill yourself!

>>151019919
Yeah, I'm still cleaning up all the curves, that outline is the auto-generated one, aseprite has some pretty cool tools.

I'll go with breaking the armor/clothes into more pieces, so stuff like the bra-armlet flows better. Thanks!

>>151020016
Its more like one object jerks because unity didnt like that collision and then it creates a chain reaction that makes the character fly apart.

>>151021556
>make the actions and items that you use follow some kind of precise logic
>be consistent in what you can affect

Going in the opposite diretion, I'd like to see a demake of point and clicks, where you have no itemse, and there is exactly one pixel that you have to find and click on. if you can make that fun, you've solved point and clicks.

REEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>151021556
Look at Machinarium. It's basically a puzzle game. You get a room, and have to find a way to get out. There's no dialogue or any grand story, and there's no usual point 'n' click bullcrap like you have to find X thing at a distant map to open some door Y chapters later. I wanted to love old school point 'n' clicks like Maniac Mansion and Syberia, but I always gave up after a while because it either was boring or the "puzzles" were just random. With Machinarium (and in every Amanita Design games) your goal is always clear, and you don't have to use cartoon logic to solve things. That was a huge improvement for me. The only point 'n' click I've ever enjoyed up to this date.

Try a different method. Collect all that is to be deleted into a temporary array. And then loop through the temporary array deleting everything off the original array using remove element.
It may be messing with the index value because you're removing things and changing the indexes mid loop.

Math is the most powerful science(magic) known to man

what's the best way to break down the modelling of a 3d environment? would I run into problems just making one enormous model and UV map or is it better to break it down into smaller sections and models?

>>151027253
It's better to break down into small sections.
First, consider that if you use a single model with a UV map, texture sizes are only so big. You'd be stretching one texture over an incredibly large amount of surface area resulting in a low resolution output.
Secondly, modern engines tend to use occlusion culling to avoid drawing things which are hidden behind other objects in a scene - if you use a single large model everything is drawn all of the time. If you use several large models, then if any single vertex of the model is visible, the entire model gets drawn and you've wasted resources.
Smaller models also lets you re-use these assets throughout your scene.

When making a game, should I better start with all the coding stuff and just use placeholders, or should I rather start with designing things?

I changed the player health system so that it is broken up into one live percentage and several recharges.

Quick damaging melee attacks can burn through them pretty fast, though.

In other words: looking forward to it.

Mess compared to what?

Have you worked with Cryengine?
Because I have in the last 2 years and let me tell you there is absolutely no information about anything and the small thing there is,it is about 2 version old that has nothing to do with the present engine.
For god sake even importing an Entity requires dinging into C++ not to mention they jumped from version 3 to version 5 and redoing the whole framework so now nothing works as it used to.
Wanna use the flow graph?
Good fucking luck,except 1 half-assed sentence describing what a node does with no examples and outdated documentation.

Start off with a rough design document so you have some general idea about what you're going to be making. It helps you identify your scope and what components you'll need to make and is really easy to change if you see something that obviously won't work looking at it.

Once that's done, whang out a quick prototype with placeholders to make sure it's actually fun. A short level showing off core features, for example. Show it to a few people you trust, if they like it then you're onto something.

That's when you start to rope in artfags. A working prototype is a great way to convince people to be interested in doing artfaggotry for you, as well as other programmers if needed. Make an asset list to give them some indication of what you'll need, which also makes it easy to divide up tasks by specialization and further locks in your scope.

Then you maek gaem and release it and it goes viral and makes you gorillionaires overnight.

>>151029109

is it possible to make a sprite based game in unity and have things move as they would in an old game running in a low resolution? it's hard to explain. say I make all my art assets to fit a faithful SNES resolution. when moving objects around they won't move per pixel they'll move incredibly smoothly. it always fucks me off when i see indie games with that shitty "retro pixel" look and they all have sprites rotating smoothly and things sliding around using realistic physics. shitty explanation, very sorry

>>151029423 cont
like undertale. it has a retro aesthetic but you have that snowball you can kick around near the beginning and the hotdogs that bounce around. it looks really jarring against the low res art style

>>151029116
Nothing as specific as level designs, more like how the game plays, what the objective is, what sort of abilities the player will have, that sort of thing.

>tfw your code is a mess

>>151027507

Nice. You'r game becomes more and more complex, just don't fall for the trap that Prison Architect has, where it go so complex and tutorials were so lacking that if you didn't follow their video dev blogs where they explained features as they were being added, you found yourself almost completely lost.

>>151029423
>>151029553
why are you trying to use unity for that instead of game maker?

presumably it's possible in unity but i imagine it's a pain in the ass to get it all set up (although maybe there's something on the store you could download for it or something)

>>151029656
i've put a good few hours into learning unity already because primarily I want to make 3d games but i've been making 2d things as practice and was wondering if it was possible

>>151029027

You can create a competent game in UE4 without knowing anything about code. IF you want to add code, UE4 is based on C++

I don't know how much Unity relies on C# though

round your vectors to get rid of the float precision and the movement becomes much more jerky

if the vector you move your thing to this frame is (30.25634, 20.2352), make it (30.2, 20.2)

I've done some other stuff too but can't remember everything. The blocking is still WIP and I plan to use some fake 3d bullshittery to rotate that circle.

There will be lots of enemies, including spell casters which will give you trouble without block. These knights are very early enemies (they don't dodge or block or anything) so they don't really represent how the difficulty will be.

I haven't done much progress on adding enemies because I need to get the core gameplay right first and my artist is working on porn game so no sprites either and my enemy designs are terrible.

that's just what normies do. instead of expanding their minds and being open to new points of view they just insult things they don't understand or don't seem normal to them.

To be fair bronies and furries are objectively mentally ill and the only one who disagree are themselves.

Why is 2D animation hell?

>>151040214
do you even tween

>>151040214
The classic two sprite key frames are there for a reason.

>>151040214

what? attack animations are the easiest. 3 frames, adjust the timing and done.

>>151039776
pretty sure this is sour grapes territory

Nevermind that the progress involved in those games look like they take a hobbyist's time investment, no, clearly their lifestyle consumed their entire livelihood and they aren't functional human beings, right?

Do you have performance problems? I wouldnt worry about it much otherwise. I like two lists so I can iterate all live entities if necessary.

About 3 weeks.

Is there any decent documentation on building an inventory menu in GM other than 40 minute youtube videos that I'd have to dissect for 3 hours?

I literally just want 3 slots to appear above my characters head but apparently that's some huge task.

>Assembly-CSharp.dll cannot be found
What did I do? Everything was compiling fine last night.

>want to make 3D games
>3D modeling is hard
>3D math is hard
>3D game logic is hard

I just want to have fun like I did making 2D games.

>>151041817
Making 3D levels is much more fun though

>>151041817

>3d modeling is hard

3d modeling is 95% drawing textures on a box

>3d math is hard

whoa. good thing we have engines for that these days

>3d game logic is hard

bruh, there's no difference between 3d game logic and 2d game logic.

>>151041817
>3D math is hard
One of the reasons one day I want to get into 3D engine devving is to learn all that sweet math. I have never cared about math, most of the times I only got passing grades, but game dev made me excited for it. Trigonometry and vectors are the pinnacles of human inventions.

Started on the underground area enemies.

They're goblins, the archer and swordman are basic ranged/melee enemies while the one with the mace and the jewish looking one are slightly rarer.

Red one will focus on tanking the player by using taunt (the player won't be able to dmg anyone but the red goblin for couple seconds) and using his shield (the player will have to attack him from behind)

Yellow one will buff his allies with increased movement and attack speed, but won't do any dmg himself.

I need a smaller text.

I mean yeah engines make it easier, but it's still a lot harder then 2D math.

>>151041994
>there's no difference between 3d game logic and 2d game logic
That's not really true.
3D games typically have more complex geometry. Mechanics that rely on movement, evaluating the player's immediate surroundings etc like a climbing system or grappling hook will always be harder.
