I have a bunch of sprites that are white on transparent, then I use Sprite::setColor to colorize the white parts and it works as intended except it turns the transparent part into black, how do I solve this?

Can somebody tell me why this javascript for a muzzleflash isn't working for me?

https://hastebin.com/odaloxabab.php

I usually should get options in the Inspector to fill out with the muzzle flash and muzzle light, but I don't have this. I'm using Unity 5.5 btw.

you mean you want to buy hardware and then make vr games? if your phone can do vr, it's google cardboard. vive new is 899, oculus is 599 for the headset and 199 for touch. you'll have to check ebay for used, i have no idea.

if you have something to show, you can try and contact oculus/valve to get a free set.

The person I wrote this from wrote it like this, and it worked for him.

Unity said that renderer is obsolete and I have to write GetComponent<Renderer>() instead, but I don't know exactly how to write this.

No it doesn't.
And you're really not going to get far in game dev without knowing how to program. you dont need to be a master.

the basics is probably enough to get a solid game up.

I just find coding not fun at all. Especially learning it is the most boring shit ever.
So why should I spend months learning this shit, when I also could just simply watch tutprials and grab the fucking code from there?

There are tutorials for pretty much everything you need for a game.

>>165054675
he just threw it right into the water . jpg

>>165054608
But I want to develop games so I can play them with my friends

>>165054675
Because you won't learn unless you code, if you only watch you will only be copying other people's code without understanding it completely, which can lead to complicated scenarios when you want to add a feature but don't know which part of the code to change. Besides everyone has a different preffered formatting style
It's like reading a book about a sport and thinking that you can become a pro player with only the knowledge from the book without practicing once

>>165054675
Because apparently you can't just simply watch tutprials and grab the fucking code from there?
Otherwise you wouldn't be here, retard.

>>165054875
>if you only watch you will only be copying
I try to understand the code from tutorials, but it just takes fucking time, smartass. You don't learn this shit overnight, you know.

>>165054920
The only reason why I am still here, is because you retards are just aggressive shitposters who search for reason to start arguments.

otherwise I would be already on the next tuorial and just use an other code for what I want.

You understand it faster if you try to make your own than try to apply what you see from videos only. Sure videos help a lot understand the basic concepts, but they aren't 100%. Without practice you won't learn, it's simple like that
I made over 30 smaller projects to get used to it and even now I am rewriting my game from scratch because my old code was too messy

>You understand it faster if you try to make your own
If I'd try to make my own code from scratch, I could barely do anything. I would first have to read tons of stuff about coding, and memorize all the syntax and shit, dumbass.

That would be boring as fuck though, that's why I prefer to learn by following tutorials.

Blunt / Slash / Thrust damage represented by Rock / Paper / Scissors y/n?

>>165055448
You don't need to memorize all stuff before coding, you can learn it as you try.
This is why people make lots of smaller projects first before working on the big thing, expecting to work on a big project on your first try is stupid and the result will be subpar. It is what makes most people give up on dev-ing

>>165055520
No, there should be a parallel set of armor types that the damage types that the damage types defeat and that the armor types are good against, I'm using that kinda thing in a tabletop RPG and it works like a charm

i.e. armor A is strong against Scissors damage, normal to Rock damage and weak against Paper damage, B is strong against Rock damage, normal to Paper damage and weak to Scissors damage, etc

>>165055542
I'm not even working on a"big project" you fucktard.
I just do what I want. How big it will be in the end, is currently completely irrelevant.

And of course I have to memorize how to code first, before being able to write code on my own. That's why I am following tutprials though, so that I actually can start somewhere, and memorize stuff as I go. Otherwise I either couldn't do anything, or just simply have to read about coding for months.

>>165055520

>>165055780
So where did your brilliant way of doing things take you? What do you have now? Nothing. Maybe you were wrong? Hmm...

>>165055780
How I did was to code my own project while watching tutorials to maximize the time, and I learned more advanced coding stuff as I tried new things and looked up how to make stuff. You don't need to learn everything at once, because that is impossible.
Coding is practice, that is all I can tell you. WIth your attitude, it will be difficult for you to finish something. All I can do is recommend you to rethink how you do stuff, and if you think coding is not for you, hire someone to code for you and do something else like art or music.

I didn't say learning from tutorials was bad, on the contrary, tutorials help a lot.
But thinking only tutorials will take you is wrong. It has to be tutorials and practice together so you can maximize your potential.
As I said before, it is like reading a book on an activity and thinking you know absolutely everything about said activity without trying it once

>>165060209
Wasn't exactly talking about gameplay. It just broke into several pieces after someone other than me gave it a try. I only fixed the bugs I could find. Turns out a dev does not find every bug in their creation.

Do you like to script/code everything yourself, or do you use code made by other people for certain things?

>>165060461
Oh, yeah, that happens. It's even better when you get ones that you can't reproduce on your machine.

>>165060529
Code I've used from other people is input management and a thing for generating noise-based shaders. Basically if it's something where the only difference in result is going to be if you spend time or money it's just a matter of figuring out which you value more.

>>165060529
I don't ever copy/paste but I have no aversion to using a well-made library for something I don't want to do myself or implementing my own version of an algorithm someone else came up with.

>>165060529
In my experience having to mess with code written by others ultimately just slows things down.

If it's perfect, or completely abstracted like an engine, then it's fine, but when I need to actually change shit I don't like it.

Quick two seconds in photochop animation because reasons.

How can I rotate a texture in Unity? I'm trying to spawn a texture, but it always spawns at a wrong angle. I have to rotate it 90 degrees, but there doesn't seem to be a way to do simple shit like this. Even when I rotate the image for the texture on my desktop, Unity just always rotates it back to the wrong angle.

You can't spawn a texture dude, that's not how rendering works.
Rotate the mesh that actually uses the texture/spawn it at the right angle, you shouldn't have to rotate the actual image file.

it's not that it's forbidden but people will tend to laugh at posts for what turned out to be rudimentary and beginner problems. This isn't exactly the best place to ask that. Because sometimes, you get helpful answers, sometimes not. Have you tried asking in the official forums of the game engine you're using? It might even be someone already posted a question similar to your situation.

>>165063102
How exactly are you "spawning" it? A texture doesn't just exist by itself in the scene. Either it's plastered on a mesh, or you're using the 2d sprite system, or you're showing it via particle emitters, or something else. You'd have to explain more to get a helpful answer.

On a mesh of course. I thought it would be obvious that the textuire is on a mesh...

However, whenever I spawn the MESH, it just always appears at different angles depending on where I stand in the camera. I got the texture now turned at the right angle, but the mesh it is on, just always appears at different angles depending on where I stand. If I move forwards, it goes downwards. It only appears at the right anfgle when I don't move at all.

>>165065172
This has nothing to do with it, smartass. The problem is that the texture or mesh always points directly at the center of the screen for some reason.

>>165065414
Things like that don't happen by themselves. You wrote code that makes that happen, or should I say you pasted code that makes that happen.

What is the definition of a yesdev?
Someone who has made a game?
Someone who has made a good game?
Someone who has made a game and released it to the public?
Someone who is profiting from his developed games?

>>165065072
I'm just guessing but sounds like you're accidentally using the camera's current rotation value and using it as the spawned mesh's rotation value. if you shared your code I could point out anything wrong, but since you don't want to share code, I'll leave that to you.

Also I'm guessing you're using the mesh file itself as the thing to spawn. Some fbx converters end up rotating the model 90 degrees in some axis as compenstation for the difference between their XYZ orientations. Some 3d tools use Z-axis as the up-to-down direction, while some game engines use Y-axis instead for that.

Better to turn that mesh into a prefab, give the prefab your desired rotation values, and use the prefab instead.

>>165065613
Of course code is important, but there are enough tutorials. I just don't feel like following another tutorial and throwing the current in the trash, that's why I ask here if anyone perhaps knows the solution to this.

>>165066693
>instead of transform.position at the end

you probably meant to say transform.rotation

if this is a top-down shooter I'm guessing you want the muzzle flash to always point upwards (facing the camera)?

best suggestion I got right now is try using muzzleFlash.transform.rotation instead as the last argument to Instantiate, then set the muzzleFlash rotation to what you want (I'm assuming that's a prefab you assigned to it).

also referencing them from other .gd files without the get_node("ObjectWithScript")?

How'd you check how many downloads your demo gets?

>>165068363
I'll definitely be looking towards it. I really want to do seamonsters at least. Gamewise I'm not limiting myself to reality in any way.

>>165069830
You can create new objects (not necessarily nodes at the same time) by instantiating from a script. Ex: load("res://applecounter.gd).new()

Game: Skylarks
Dev: Mako
Tools: Rust, Blender, Logic, SDL2
Web: -
Progress:
+ Rewrote the representation of "scenes" (menus, gameplay modes, etc.) along with the parts of the input system that use it. The new way is much less error prone because combinations that are supposed to be impossible are no longer allowed by the type system.
+ Rewrote the asset loader to work with the new scene model. Now if something goes wrong it will show an error screen instead of just crashing the program. It's also fewer lines of code than the old version thanks to macro magic and Rust's new error-throwing syntax.
- The actual game part doesn't work right now

most people only play the 1 or 2 most popular games. other games are lucky to get 10 people, and only 1 of them will give feedback

>>165057334

>>165071726
some of the ones out are self-admittedly half-complete with not much to review on, so even though I played them I don't leave a review and just hope they release something more playable next time

Added the possibility for multiple enemies, although I still need to account for the second enemies turn. Also changed UI controls to keyboard instead of having to click on everything.

are there no unreal games in demo day anymore or am I missing one?

Is there any logic to release a game that's has less than an hour of gameplay on Steam? Won't people refund it?
My game could be completed in 7 minutes, each level is +-1 minute long. Of course most people will probably die 10+ times each level and begin from the start but still.
