Made another new enemy. This one's name is Bombegranate. He launches a barrage of pomegranate seeds at the player when they get too close. Like with Nanners, the pomegranate also acts as a shield, and have to attack the opposite side to deal damage.

Is foot sliding acceptable for attack animations?

Shitter dev here, I was trying to make a "color palette" near of the character I am doing for easy access to colors but it just doesn't seem great. After a few days using Aseprite and making pixel character I am picking better tones without relying on it.

Or is this the right way to make a character?

>>152887074
Fair enough...
Friend and I are working on our first game and we decided to switch from Rune-like combat to less action oriented. I made a script that's using character controller to move around and it's working as it should, but the old jump script which is using rigidbody doesn't work anymore. I tried adjusting it to character controller instead, but nothing happens when I press the jump button.

Too similar in my opinion. Maybe he could bury himself for the duration of his attack instead?

Monday I will be upgrading to a Pentium from my Celeron! I eagerly await my increased power and memory clock speed.

I wish I wasn't poor.

Also, I'm starting to get into the groove. Just wrote my first few pieces of useful C++. Guns now use a C++ base class that has functions for shooting and shit.
Man declaring 2D Arrays is so much easier in UE if you use C++ instead of the batshit insane approach of the editor.

No controllers every, but reconfigurable controls.

Game is not working correctly if you don't need to put in effort.

Replay value comes with speedrunning and variety of loadouts and shit.

I try to avoid pitfalls of many games, like the two guns faggotry and time-based functionality that basically makes idling desirable.

In this SRPG game, your goal is to bring a relic to the other side's base. Kills don't matter. Just scoring touchdowns.

So, other than a football field, what other levels should I have?

>>152889239
I mean it looks to me like you're creating a default Vector3 which is (0,0,0), then converting that from a position relative to the character, TO a position in worldspace. Since (0,0,0) is the character origin in local space, the value will just end up being identical to the characters position in world space. Adding +10 to the Y will just mean the vector is pointing to a spot somewhat above the character, in world space. Unless Unity does something under the sheets I dont see any reason why the character would move, just because you're defining this vector3 and transforming it. I don't know how Unity does movement but it seems to me like you should be setting the transform.position to the point you transformed.

Make more seams. Pinning what's good and unwrapping again might also help a lot.
If it's still too wild to handle you may want to create different islands (separate a part of the mesh from the rest, using seams as well) for the parts that cause you trouble.

I found this tutorial pretty helpful
http://www.cgmasters.net/free-tutorials/uv-unfolding-blender/

>>152890295
Your mesh gets triangulated when you export it to your game engine. You want as many quads as possible when modeling. (Except in some rare cases where you want to stop the quad flow or add triangles to an area for better deformation)

>>152890479
Why so purposefully macabre to start?

Why not just have insane writing all over the walls with numbers of various colors. Then, somewhere else, have a lock with a four digit code. Above the lock, cleaner than anything else, Have the it say CODE: and then four splotches of colors. The splotches would be 1:1 with a number. So if there was a red splotch in the code, only have 1 red number. But if there is no green in the code, you could have 2 or more green numbers all over the wall.

This would give you an excuse to make the player explore the hell out of the room.

I can think of several games based around a single mechanic that would be a lot better if you'd plug that mechanic into an existing game with other mechanics.
Like think of Zelda or Metroid where you have a bunch of different tools that allow you to have a various ways of both exploring and fighting. Those games could've chosen to use a single ones of their tool and make the whole game about that but it's way more interesting to have all of them.

yep, pipelines are static, and this lets the driver know exactly what's going to happen. way better than the constant guessing game that is opengl.

you can actually cache pipelines and save them to disk so that you don't have to recreate them every time the game loads, similarly to the new SPIR-V shader format.

What the hell.

Anyone see an immediate issue with this function? The error is for line 19 but it clearly is fine. I even looked at every single if statement several times. I cannot figure out why I'm getting this syntax error. Not even on my own version but on the CREATOR'S version.

That's neat. How come it took vulkan to get a shader format with standard bytecode? Didn't D3D have that forever? The idea of leaving shader compilation to vendors and drivers sounds absolutely terrible

>>152895375
Yeah I was just about to ask, if you were to write an api like GL on top of Vulkan, would you just keep recreating pipeline objects at runtime for state changes? Not that I'd do that, just wondering if it's how it would be done

>>152895945
That's not mine, that is the copy pasted code of Dejaime because mine wasn't working because of that same error.

I even went to every single line of code and reformatted it to
if sprite_def == nil then
return nil
end

on the off chance that is the issue. I even straight up deleted/commented whole blocks of code to figure out the issue.

>>152895665
What is the 'then' doing?

>>152896131
>would you just keep recreating pipeline objects at runtime for state changes
Probably not, because PSO creation is expensive (better pay a large cost once and pittances from then on). You'd cache them in a hash map, keyed by state. I'm sure the existing drivers do something not a whole lot more ambitious than that.

Wasting space, the fact that anyone can edit it freely, and how the fuck are you going to map every color to an entity correctly with several layers? You'd have to write a custom map editor that exports several PNGs if you aren't planning on using the color picker to check if the tile is that specific blue hue. Jesus, what a horrible idea.

It's still better than using JSONs. I mean I love JSONs, but it's better to draw than to type your level.

Other than that, there's no safe way to protect your game's files. Even AAA titles' assets get datamined.

Not if you let the physics animate it.

You can export layers as separate images in batch save mode and just use the layer system in your image editor. Meaning you can have several layers in which you use monochrome masks or whatever else to set the direction of gravity, ambient temperature, wind or whatever else you could need.

>>152898106

Should you encrypt your dialog files?

>>152897581
You're mental. How are you going to manage everything? Do you plan on having a text file with every single object in the game assigned a value between 0 and 0xFFFFFF? What if you fuck up a tile where the blue differs by 4? How will you properly align map layers?

At least write a fucking tool that lets you manipulate sprites and export a png, you're gonna waste so much time.

>>152897951
>>152897956
Yeah, that's not really a problem, but literally everything else is. JSON is just another data format, doesn't matter what you use as long as you can export and parse that shit properly. Obviously people don't give a fuck about file sizes since they use bloated Unity and UE binaries.

Your point about flexibility and high chance of error is right, but at some point in your game you just have to do that kind of dirty work. It's like you can't magically assume that your game will know that your tiles in 32x32 or 64x64 or whatever. You have to tell it so it can read and use your sprites properly. Having an image as a tile map is no different from that. You just tell your engine which color is which and that's it.

I don't really look down on Blackshellmedia for it, if they actually provide a service. I just consider it not at all worth the 33% portion mentioned earlier.

Okay, so using PNG as a storage format isn't probably really that bad, but you're wasting space on chunk headers. Spore did something similar; every creature you created could be exported as a PNG that you could share.

I'm not sure what you mean when you're saying you got bored of text files. Did you actually manually type the map data in the text file, or did you export it to text from an editor?

For those who've played Zineth, how do they have the character stick so smoothly to the ground when skiing around?

Is there any reason not to use a Boost library in your project?
Every time I look something up the answer is "BOOST DOES THIS"

For the lewd jam am I supposed to blur tips and vag?

>>152902118
1) slow as fuck
2) you don't need them
3) you really don't need them even if you think you do

Lewd should even have tips and vag. It's supposed to be the implications that turn you on. But yeah, black bar that shit if you have it.

>>152901894
Why? Not saying you shouldn't learn it, but you should have a good reason. It's not really a good or interesting language, it's just widely-used.

>>152902118
It pulls in a lot of bloat if you only need one small feature. And a lot of features have been recently absorbed into the C++ standard library, or are now obsolete.

>>152902407
alright thx, I shall watch a couples JAV to get some aspiration going!!!

>>152902230
What do you mean? You can have lewd games on itch.io but when you're posting progress here you better hide the indecent bits or you might get bonked

Which languages are good and/or interesting?

>>152902230
Itch don't care so you might as well let the breathe free.

HTML still isn't a programming language.
Go be pedantic somewhere else, when people talk about programming they usually talk about languages that were made for programming, not something that happens to be turing-complete for some reason when combined with some other shit.

Is Oxygine any good or is it a meme library?

>>152903328
>engine comparison is okay
>image editor comparison is okay
>DAW comparison is okay
>language comparison is not

>>152903468
Never heard of it so it's safe to assume it's another meme library.

>>152903509
Just like gamedev is ok and enginedev is not ok

>>152903076
>maid
oh boy, code please

>>152903468
Looks like it's designed for mobile dev so yeah, meme.

>>152903580
>>152903670
What are some non-meme libraries that use C++

>>152903798
>libraries that use C++
>not C++ libraries
Mindset is all wrong.

>>152903798
GLFW (or SFML if you want something simpler) and your own engine.
You don't need to bother with the high level abstractions of meme engines if you're making a 2D game, otherwise you shouldn't be using C++ in the first place.

every time. Why are so many hentai devs boring? Futa or monster man would have been 10x better

Language comparison is literally dick comparison by other means. It is the height of unabashed faggotry and belongs in >>>/g/

I code exclusively in Francis.

So I was working on the village and Unity crashed. The project got corrupted and I had to reload all assets.
Everything is working now, everything but the scene that was loaded...the town.


The scene got corrupted and is empty now, all I get is this "iterator == end" error. Google is not being too helpul so if anyone knows a solution please let me know.


I do have a backup but it's like a week old. I'd rather try everything before giving up a week's worth of work.

I'm sorry anon but you fucked up.
If you aren't backing up every other hour you're asking for trouble.
