>>170718617

>>170718364
I would say "where's your game"

Why is Godot so much better than GML?

>>170718848
It's not better until they fix the shitty performance in the scripting.

>>170718013
>>170718106
Considering the Katakana starts with an I and ends with an O I can conclude that you have literally no idea what you're talking about.

>>170718848
Just a difference in taste, really. Godot has a different workflow and language, which might work better for some people. Personally I like Godot more than Gamemaker. It does also have real 3D support, if that is something you'd need.

>>170718591
I must've torrented 100gb of games this week and i cant get into any of them

GTAV, Mankind Divided, Xcom, Hitman barely lasted an hour in any of them

Even indie games like rimworld, prison architect I cant get into

Longest I've lasted is playing cities skylines for 1 day

A question to all of you devs, why haven't you converted to 2D, and if you have, why aren't you using Clickteam Fusion 2.5?

>>170718617

>>170718909
GDScript already preforms better than GML, and it's going to get even more improvements in Godot 3.0. It's also getting C# support and dynamically linked C++ in 3.0

>>170719114
Yeah, but i've used Godot, and it's flow is crap. It isn't as organized as other engines.

>>170719015
>>170719015
as a guy who has played every game the most fun are the very competitive multiplayer ones for which ever series you find most entertaining

I find dota 2 the most fun because it is 5v5 team battles in that genre. You see what I am saying? What genre of games do you find most fun?

>>170719113

>>170718932

>>170719207
>>170719114
i agree with him, but i believe that godot is still a good engine to use

>>170719015
Yeah I've found as I've gotten older and had less and less free time it's incredibly hard for me to get into singleplayer games anymore, which sucks. I'll pretty much always opt for 7DtD/KF2/L4D2 with some friends over singleplayer stuff, so my backlog has gotten ridiculous.

>>170719218
FPS, rpg, strategy games

I have Overwatch ill probably give that a go

Here's a real question...

Unreal Engine 4 vs. Godot 3.0

it makes me proud to see that no one is using unity.

>>170719280
Nah you were close

Chou is Super

>>170719394
Godot for 2D. Godot 3 supports PBR, so its 3D is a lot better, but it still wont have all the 3D features than Unreal has.

I'd use Godot 3 over Unity though.

>>170719516
yeah because Unity is difficult to use for begineers even if you have some experience coding

>>170717745
Would you be interested in drawing a cponcept art of robot that flies around using a beany copter?

Is GMS better than Unity for 2D?

>>170719645
I would use a 2D engine to make a 3D game before I used Unity. Unity's physics engine sucks dick, Unity's lighting engine sucks dick, Unity just sucks dick in general.

>>170719207
I like Godot's flow.

>>170719734
t. pleb who couldn't adjust properly.

>>170719715
Literally everything is better than Unity for 2D.
Unity's ""2D"" is just the 3D engine with the camera being forced to use Orthographic. So any engine that has a proper 2D implementation will be better for 2D.

>>170719693
>Unity is difficult to use for beginners

Most beginners who know nothing use Unity, broski. Unity is a crap engine, not even professionals can use it. The company who makes it should go bankrupt and leave Unity 6 up as open source so someone can make their own good engine based off the Unity engine or someone can modify the engine itself and make it good or something like that.

>>170719919
why is it a crap engine compared to others lets say UE4 or Game maker studio etc

>>170719830
Are you defending Unity? What the fuck is wrong with you?

>>170718932
Must've taken a real genius to identify those two as bullshitters. Great job.

>>170720006
It has a shit physics engine. It has a shit lighting engine. It has a shit UI. It doesn't communicate with itself right. Why isn't it a shit engine?

Now Unreal Engine, that's a great fucking engine. Great physics, great lighting, great UI, communicates with itself amazing, it even as a great simulated sound engine, you can set it to where sound travels like it does in real life, you can set stealth games up WAY BETTER when the enemy can hear sounds within a certain range.

finally decided how im gonna do my equipment stuff for the character
>all will be doom like powerups
>which instantly gives temporal or in some cases permanent boost to any kind of stat the player has
>only 1 (one) equipment slot for an "artifact"
>inventory will be only for strategic items, such as keeping those artifacts with you and changing them depending on situation
>or resources used in crafting
>mission items and so on

>>170720425

>>170719892
What about 2D games like sidescrollers with 3D graphics?

>>170720475

>>170720552
Clickteam Fusion 2.5 is the best 2D engine, it's $100, but you can get it for about $2.74 on g2a.com

Reminder that UE4 is absolute garbage for sidescrollers and any kind of 2D game.

Friendly reminder to use this in your game.

>>170720996
It was never a meme, /agdg/ just hates anything that's new. The documentation has become a lot more filled in, and there's a lot more tutorials now. It's easy to get into, I was able to get into it with only a little bit of Python knowledge beforehand.

>>170720756
Use Clickteam Fusion 2.5, and model some 3D models in like, Blender, and turn them to the side, and export screenshots as .pngs to use them as sprites.

>>170720939
No it fucking isn't you retard.

-Learning cearve for wanting to do anything interesting and cool is too confusing and steep
-Literally only one person ever who's putting out guides consistently for this thing (SnailOn) and that's your only help
-Forums are jack fucking shit useless and provide no help as either everyone is too old and doesn't want to help you, or you're not worth their time
-Editor is extremely dated and clunky
-Literally only exports to Windows (.exe) and you have to DUMP LOADS OF MONEY to get any exporter ($600 worth of exporters are you fucking kidding me?)
-There may be a lot of extentions, but only a few are really useful, the rest are useless
-Transitions will just break for a few months and come back (Seriously? and I had a dev of Clickteam help me try and fix this and they can't even figure that shit out)
-Making a perfect pixel game requires a extention to upscale the screen, and isn't just built into the engine
-Music event literally only takes MIDI, like WHYYYY; you're forced to use the Sample event to play mp3s for music
-You literally only use the following objects: Active Objects, Background Objects, String Objects, and Number Objects
-Debug menu on the side is helpful, but in more cases than none, continues to lag the game down when open
-"Every ___" events are broken and awful, as if the game lags or is played on a bad computer that makes the game lag, this event still counts at regular speed regardless, leading to a lot of possible bugs regarding to lag
-Dev upgrade costs 300 FUCKING DOLLARS LIKE YOU'RE KIDDING ME
-The Dev upgrade is needed or else your product is owned my clickteam, no debates, no ifs, ands or buts, they own it. Regardless of the hours you put into it, regardless of you making 100% of it by scratch, THEY OWN IT UNTIL YOU FORK OVER 300 DOLLARS

-Stop being cheap
-The events work really well in my experience, you just need to take the time to learn, if you really wanna make your game, you would learn
-Fuck macfags and mobilefags, Windows is the superior platform
-I have used the save object plenty of times, I have experimentally used other objects
-If the game lags on a bad computer, that's good, that's what they get for not building a masterrace gaming PC for $1,200 and spending $2,000 on that work-specific PC.

I was hoping you'd solve it because my curiosity as to what the issue could be is piqued, perked, and primed and this point.

So you're 100% certain there's nothing going on with the image speed? The only drawing related code (as far as informing the object what its sprite should be) is "draw_sprite(spr_boxFP,2,x,y)"?

This has reached such a point of ridiculousness (not by your fault, of course) that I'd try making a copy of the sprite and deleting the original just to see whether something somewhere breaks in a way that might reveal something you'd overlooked.

actually, I did fix it the first time. I was able to make it that as you got closer to the pillars, the sprite changed to slightly alter perspective. Which was turned off for that webm, since it looked not so good. It was almost like the sprite was stuck until i cleared out all the code and put it back in. I don't remember what finally fixed it. But now I'm doing a similar technique for walking around objects. Rather than distance, the sprites change when the angle between you and the sprite is in a certain range.

The problem cropped back up in this object, so my code is secretly shit or there is a similar bug.

To make my question more clear, I would like to know if I can tell how to calculate normals.

Like in this guide, it gives you a simple math for calculate a normal per vertex, thus lights and shadows are smoother on surfaces:
http://www.lighthouse3d.com/opengl/terrain/index.php3?normals

However you can calculate a normal for a face, thus a face will have a constant shade on all its surface.

Is there a way in Blender to define the way how it should calculate the normals? I'm pretty new to modeling, so excuse me if it's something trivial.

The shading options doesn't seem to do anything for me. In the mesh display window, I can set which normals to display, but it's unclear which ones will be exported in the final file.

Can someone with Source Filmmaker knowledge help me? I decompiled a model, imported it into blender, sculpted it a bit, then exported it and recompiled it. I'm using crowbar to compile and recompile shit.

Anyway, when I load it up in SFM, the mesh is all janked up. I can export the .smd file from blender just fine, but it's when I use crowbar to recompile the files into the SFM format when the mesh decides to take a shit??

ale the IBH dev here.
Got some pretty valuable feedback from Demo Day and decided to change the direction of the game a little bit.
You used to just see the city you where in, I'm making the cities walkable now so you'll have to walk around to get clues and then run after the suspect once you find him in a city. Good thing I was already working on a new set of city assets that will fit the cyberpunk theme a lot better than what I have now, I just have to make them presentable from a street level now. The scope of the game grows significantly with this, but there's no point in releasing something that is not appealing or extremely niche.

This change in direction was not suggested to me, but became pretty obvious from seeing a couple of people playing it and not knowing what the fuck to do, so a huge thanks to everyone that played it and gave me feedback!

>>170728923

Why are your guide boxes facing down?

>>170729280
Well, game engines have mini-engines inside them that help by do things so you don't have to. Like a physics engine, that simulates physics so you don't have to setup your own physics (SETTING UP PHYSICS IS SUCH A TEDIOUS FUCKING TASK, TRUST ME, GAME ENGINES ARE A WONDERFUL INVENTION). Unity has a horrible physics engine, lighting engine, doesn't have a sound engine and it's UI is horrible. Unreal is however the exact opposite, great physics engine, lighting engine, it has a sound engine, which is a great sound engine (IT MAKES IT SO EASY TO MAKE GREAT STEALTH GAMES WHEN YOU CAN EASILY SET YOUR ENEMY TO ONLY HEAR WITHIN A CERTAIN RANGE) and Unreal's UI is fucking amazing.

Thanks for playing, dude. Looking forward to your thoughts in a couple months when there's more to do in the game.

>>170730105
Hell yes. It is easier when you don't have to program your own physics because Unity's physics suck. It is easier when you don't have to make your own dynamic sound system. It is easier when you don't have to texture out shiny textures because Unity's lighting system is UNBEARABLE. It's easier when the UI (User Interface) of the engine is really simple and is a comfortable environment.

As requested, I've put in a scrolling feature so you can look back up through the story you've gone through so far. Spent some extra time on it and made it so that if you're not scrolling your mousewheel and it's at the bottom of the scrollbar, it'll move itself down as new text appears as the old system did.

Also, turned off typewriter to boost performance and resolve some issues folks reported. This makes it easier to do a chunk like this without a huge loss of FPS as the anims get in and get out quickly unlike the old ones.

Also, progress webm because I figured it'd be good practice.

>UE4 is x
The thing is that Thief was made in UE3, not UE4, and thus didn't use blueprints. So Thief is completely unrelated to blueprints.

Just look at the DD13 list, how many of those were made in Unreal? If you think its biased, then look at sites dedicated to indie games, and compare how many of them uses Unreal, and how many uses other engines. It's clear that unreal is not the "most accomplishing" engine.

Linked lists are only better than array lists when you're doing way more insertions and removals from the middle than anything else. With a queue you never do this (and ring buffers handle adding and removing from both ends quickly) so there's no reason to ever use a linked queue.

Well, maybe for some lock free algorithm. Other than that, no.
