Not always the best idea anon. If you take the time to do something right, it can have good results.

As for your AA text, what engine are you in?

As an alternate idea, you could increase the font of the text dramatically, and then reduce the scale of the numbers.

>Not always the best idea anon. If you take the time to do something right, it can have good results.

Yup, but I'm also always conscious that if I take too long on any one feature you never end up finishing anything. It's a payoff, and I think nicely formatted text might be the sacrifice here.

>As for your AA text, what engine are you in?

I'm using the OGRE library for my 3D and the MyGUI library for other UI stuff. The cards and healthbars are OGRE, the buttons/text in the bottom right corner is MyGUI.

It might be worth trying to get MyGUI to do the healthbars, but MyGUI has been a temperamental piece of shit since the day I started using it and I don't like using it for anything but the most basic UI button shit.

>>162403517

Oh my god did you give the alligators more animations? They're more cute than before

>>162420835
I haven't used OGRE, but I would recommend you git gud at the GUI. If you learn the ways it is a piece of shit, then you can easily implement stuff later.

Added reloads to the hardpoints.

I'm still undecided on if I'll allow this on hardpoints like this in the game or not, but I need this logic in for stuff like missile pods anyway.

I'm leaning towards no, because the theory in my head is that you plan missions with not only your loadout in mind, but also your whole flight. Ideally when it comes to weapons and how much hurt you have available to distribute in a mission, you're thinking in terms of what your whole flight is carrying, not just yourself.

But that's all just wishful thinking. It's not like this will ever be finished.

can anyone here familiar with lua help me out?
Im trying to load vertices (3 of them atm) into a GLMesh class using a lua script
http://pastebin.com/7F5N2Gxh
if it provides any hint to the problem, when debugging using breakpoints, i got the pointer to the mesh created by newmesh.lua using getGlobal, and before running loadmesh.lua, i set m_LoadedVertexNum to 8, but after running loadmesh, m_LoadedVertexNum wasnt set back to zero like it should have been with ClearLoadedData. This leaves me to believe that GLMeshBeginVertexLoad isnt being called correctly, like it doesnt have the right pointer, but im honestly stumped.
If more code is need ill post it. pls help, it's getting late

>>162430569
What exactly IS the problem?

>>162430654
welp, nothing's being drawn, so there's that
none of my data is being loaded into the class, like at all. The scripts to create the mesh and to draw it were working fine, but i had to manually put in the vertex data in C++. I tried to make a script to load vertex data into the class through a lua script call loadmesh.lua, but it doesn't appear to be affect the class at all
im sorry if im retard, im very tired

>>162430864
I would start by putting some print statements or whatever in the functions to ensure they're actually being called.

yeah, i did something like that with the breakpoints, i am pretty certain that GLMeshBeginVertexLoad(mesh) is not being called correctly, either it has the wrong pointer (which would be weird because it worked fine in the other scripts) or i didnt register it properly (which im pretty sure i did)

I've realised that all I know how to do is movement in Unity. Like, I could make a basic shooter if I ever got networking to work, but otherwise all my time is spent trying to get motion feel right. I understand why those walking simulators are so common. I wanted to make a farming game and I realised that I understood literally none of what I would need to make it work.

I bet a lot of that sort of thing is motivated by the teachers in these programs.

I was in an artsy fartsy program once, and basically every project I got, I wanted to do something new, but the profs kept telling me to go back to previous assignments and re-make them in the frameworks of the new assignment. It wasn't as bad because it was a techy program focusing on "interactive" works so it was just boring rather than offensive, but the influence of ~le po-mo modern art~ culture was still pretty strong.

I wouldn't be surprised if the guy who made the shitty statue of a guy sucking himself off was egged on to do so by his prof(s).

I don't know if other engines do this, but it's really annoying that Unity has you re-download the whole fucking engine every update instead of just having a patcher.

>binaryWriter.Write((ushort)((i << 8) | (i >> 8)));

Man, that is ugly. .NET's BinaryWriter class works on little endian and the m68k on the Genesis works on big endian. You'd think that there'd be a way to configure BinaryWriter's behavior, but apparently not.

On the bright side, it was actually pretty easy to assemble Tiled tmx files into something the Genesis can work with (granted, I'm not bothering with compression). Just need to output a metadata file now so my game can actually do something with an 8kb blob of binary data.

So I have some low poly water, I want to move all the verteces up and down randomly so it looks like this is flowing, any good tutorias or examples.

If you can get a reference to each vertex you should be able to apply a translation along the up/down axis based on Sin(time) or something like that.

Or if you can apply a texture that determines the height, you can animate that texture to pan across the surface, mimicking waves.

I like the second one, because It means you can have different textures for calm, choppy, or high seas etc.

>>162438152
Nice!

Anyone got any idea how the rooms in binding of isaac are made on a certain floor?

Are they all drawn at the beginning of the floor, or is every room just data which is only drawn when the player actually enters the door for the room? I'm not asking about the random proc-gen mind you, I've heard it randomly puts together already made pieces but that's not what I'm interested about.

It doesn't look like there's a winter jam this year, but regardless, I'm thinking about whipping up a sequel to my only entry to last year's that actually got played. Been messing around for an hour and I've already got the bare bones finished.

I like where this is going.

Unity question: is there a way to project the camera view on the canvas/UI, maybe on an image? Got an equipment menu where I want to show the player model but I can't really find anything on this topic. Is there a specific term for this feature?

>>162444526
Wow, that looks delicious. The level background and level platforms look pretty nostalgic to me. Also, pretty good choice on making a retro 2.5d platformer game, which is better than 2d pixelshit and 3d blendershit in my opinion.

>>162445370
It probably plays like shit. There is a reason most of the good ones are pixel shit.

>>162445286
What you probably want is 2 cameras, one that show your menu and another that shows your character.

>>162445498
Maybe a little more juice can fix it? Also, I'd say Mega Man X8 is a good example for a good 2.5d game with good gameplay (even though the level design is kinda shit).

>>162445286
Render to texture is probably the concept you want, I don't know about the specifics of using it in Unity

>>162445610
this would be the easiest option, though a little expensive in terms of processing

>>162445738
Megaman X8 is not a good example of 2.5d and has the laziest design next to x6

>>162446226
what about megaman x for PSP?

>>162446316
He's going to say that it's shit no matter what you post.

>>162446316
x on the psp was arguably much better design than x8 due to the fact that it used an existing formula. Here is an idea though. Why don't you reference a game closer to what you seem to be going for.

The X series all seem fast paced and your game does not seem to match that pace nor be projectile focused.

>>162445995
You can probably render it at a lower resolution, very simple background, I can't see it being that heavy. In the UE4 equivalent you can disable graphics effects in a render to texture which you may also be able to do.

Is the game paused while this menu is open?

(not familiar with Unity)

>>162444526
it's a start but there really isn't a whole lot to say about this since you already know animations are shit

Focus groups and executive meddling are a bitch.

how can you force certain faces on a 3d model to display dark, as in unlit. Such as obscuring a characters eyes so that no matter the angle you can't see them. something to do with normal maps maybe?

Use an unlit material?

Well, that certainly isn't right

How do i post my game on that shitty ldjam page? I can't find it anywhere

I like the way this mess looks.

I'm too stupid to even be able to do low poly style.

I just need an art style that looks good and is easy.

Trying to make a 3D game, but cannot even get good at low poly.

Maybe should just do a pixel game.

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

It's kind of spooky, there's these weird runes in there that aren't anywhere in the tileset. There was a font in VRAM that should've been overwritten, I have no idea how it would've gotten warped like that instead, though.

Of course, I don't know why everything's garbled in the first place, but still...

Blow on the cartridge and jam it back in there. Sometimes you have to jiggle it to get the pins to seat.

That's the boat I'm in anon. I can't really nail any style, my modelling is still subpar, and UVs/Texturing is definitely not my forte, so I opted for a combination of low poly and toon shading.

I personally like the style, which is a plus, but it also helps me hide my skill shortfalls while I try to improve.
