We also don't dig deep enough to find very old things. Coal miners have found some very VERY old artifacts embedded in solid rock dating to 100+ million years ago. The reset cycle may go all the way back to the dinosaurs, and if not, it makes a good videogame story! :)

Is that James May?

Hopefully the timestamp works: :emoji_pineapple:

Darpa is kicking funds around in small amounts to researchers attempting very theoretical EMDrive like stuff here and there. Maybe one of them will work? The modified inertia guy got a bit of money to try a sort of quantized inertia effect drive. The first one didn't work for sure but they...

Oldassa cracked me up That sounds like AI voice cloning reading that btw. Not bad but there are a few tells.

Yea there's another image thread down in tech forum or something. Wonder if we should merge them?

Story time: Long ago in my youth I lived by a church, and the preacher's son was a friend. He had watched me defeat Ultima 2 on the C64 and loved how Minax would say "Die fool!" So next sunday there are these little booklets you get for this sort of religious indoctrination before church...

Here's what the above mountain box looks like in my map build tool in a semibroken map:

That github thing is not too bad! I don't have it in game yet but these are the faces for a mountain set: Makes you want to mine some iron ore!

This vid has it figured out. There's a pluging + using :emoji_nose:monoscopic 360 vr:emoji_nose: seems to be the key. This gets me results like: So have to figure out how to convert that into a cubemap found this: https://jaxry.github.io/panorama-to-cubemap/

Gives us a month to get our UI working :D I'm still hoping to get my character import / export tool working with everquest models (at least the old ones) before then, but it is maybe 50/50. If I could get that working it would probably be easy enough to get robes working on non robe races, fix...

This month is the late shift's eco RP server again. I think it starts in a couple weeks or so. Always a fun time with lots of funny guest streamers and such. They are going to have some early unreleased features this time around, so early versions of boats and such. They released this little...

Here's some "forest, looking straight up at the sky". I had to go 512x512 as 256 doesn't seem to be big enough for it to work with:

Eventually I switched from Euler A to DDIM and it makes some really nice scenery: The real trick is going to be the top and bottom faces of the cubemaps. Bottom is rarely seen but it is nice to have.

I've been restoring my old BSP libraries to life again. This is a map compiler for old quake style map editors. I primarily use quake army knife. Anyway, one of the best ways to jazz up a map is with a nice skybox. These are 6 sided cubemaps that any face marked as "sky" projects into. They...

So we still don't have everything fixed. The plumbers are all buried in work. After our 6 days with no water, we got the basics going but all the holes where they tore out the busted pipes were freezing us. One void in particular was rather large... I went into the kitchen a couple nights...

I want them to make it. I want to see what kind of F1 car caddy would make. 😆 This sounds like a job for AI

Yea! I get the fever in feb/march. Summer sucks.

Bleh

How do they get the changes to spread to other cells? I wanna do some editing on myself.

Thanks for that command! Vastly reduces the annoyance.

Yep, I dug through renderdoc's bugs on github. Someone eventually added a setting in the mesh viewer. You can see I set it to right handed, and with that vert with 27 bone index highlighted, you can see it is on the right foot. Bone 27 is right foot for me. Mystery solved!

So I've been trying to get characters working in Linux, and getting lots of explodey parts and limbs stretched out and such as is usual. So I wanted to check to make sure my assigned bones were right. Art stuff does the bones by name but I convert that into indexes and it's possible they could...

wtf is Souls-like?

Grand finals rematch tonight. I frogot about it so I'm rewound Hmm it's the new shock, aka o2 blast, and yea like I said they are destroying last year's league champions.

Hopefully we get our water back today. If not at least stores are open maybe so I can go get some bottled.

Yea it's been a month or so, and I've had a few freezeups. The Dolphin file manager seems to be the usual culprit. There is some kind of watchdog that kills runaway processes but the hangup I get doesn't seem to trigger it. It always recovers somehow, but it usually takes 10 minutes or so. I...

I've been watching Hammond's workshop. It has been traumatic. The entire show is Hammond promising people work that he vastly underestimates, and then undercharges for. This is exactly what it was like in one of my previous jobs working for 2 english guys.

So league stuff: They lowered the eligibility age to 17. How that is going to work with highschool I have no idea. Boston's new team is crazy. I don't mean crazy good, just several super toxic players. All they need is Fissure to make have all of the biggest asshole players in one team...

Merry Christmas firesfriends

My hot water is still frozen. The room next to it I have heating nicely now, but it won't thaw. Earlier in the day there was more cold air coming in through the drafty-ass walls than the heater could put out, but the wind has died down a bit now. Since the main kitchen drain froze I am...

Like a giant frosty witches tiddy

This was so good. Very much like playing the survival game Eco irl

The hot side froze :( And the kitchen drain
