Ramón WilhelmToday, I'm going to try improving the Thumbleweed GUI in Temple of the Three Rules.Not visually, but logically.Well, actually not exactly, tbh. I also wish I could redesign the dialog option, too.I'm not a fan of the AGS Thumbleweed GUI.<a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/indiedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#indiedev</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/indiegamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#indiegamedev</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gamedev</a>

Perrin42This is pretty cool - back in 2010 Stardock released a game called Elemental, and it was a disaster. A buggy, unfinished mess, and not to their usual standards. They're not shying away from that, and in fact they are remastering, rewriting, and rereleasing what they think the game should have been. It'll be interesting to see what comes of it.<a href="https://forums.elementalgame.com/536736/dev-journal-01---elemental-reforged" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://forums.elementalgame.com/536736/dev-journal-01---elemental-reforged</a><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/gaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gaming</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Games" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Games</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gamedev</a>

Arvīds Kokinspretty much every non-mainstream approach I've encountered so far has significant caveats as wellI intend one of my next projects to be an exploration of various less popular available optionsthe goal is to make something that doesn't look ancient and renders various typical environments (indoors and outdoors), retaining (and possibly enhancing) the key recognizable elements while attempting to avoid the work that doesn't meaningfully improve the outcome<a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gamedev</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/graphics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#graphics</a>

Arvīds KokinsPBR ROIdeserves a longer write-up but I've been returning to it periodically and don't have "the solution" yetobservations: - PBR maps often do not meaningfully contribute to the image - PBR maps take a lot of time to create and need specialized tools/workflows - realistic light source intensities are often a pain and need to be counterbalanced with adaptive exposure - accurate reflections are complex and work/computation-intensive af - BUT it looks nice when it works<a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gamedev</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/graphics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#graphics</a>

Arvīds Kokinsrealized during dev that I could add switches for different PBR texture configs (MR/MS/SG) or even more than thatno need atm (or quite possibly in the future) but still nicealso realized I could make an equally configurable unlit multi-shader -but- would probably be best to create a special feature for exposing render states/bucket/order etc. as parameters first to avoid combinatorial silliness<a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gamedev</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/enginedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#enginedev</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/graphics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#graphics</a>

Rachel Wil Singh ~ Moos-a-deeSomething I don't understand about my <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gamedev</a> addiction that I've had my entire life is that... making comics, animations, music, etc. is never *quite as* satisfying as making a video game. I don't get that huge dopamine hit unless I'm coding and doing art/music for my game. WHY?

Arvīds Kokinsa few days of work later, managed to:1) integrate the previously mentioned variants into a single 8-variant multi-shader 2) see no rendering changes (apart from the things I broke by starting other changes previously and not having finished those)8 on-edit pixel shader compilations serially at ~600ms each kinda suck thougha funny side effect of D3DCompile: unused constant buffer vars aren't auto-removed from the output, creating extra useless vertex shaders<a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gamedev</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/enginedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#enginedev</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/graphics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#graphics</a>
