@tim_cook ಅವರಿಗೆ ಪ್ರತಿಕ್ರಿಯಿಸಲಾಗುತ್ತಿದೆ
The symbolism of indiscriminately crushing beautiful creative tools is an interesting choice.

- @Johnie ಅವರಿಗೆ ಪ್ರತಿಕ್ರಿಯಿಸಲಾಗುತ್ತಿದೆIt's gone sentient and started having a long distance love affair with my wifi connected stove.
- Hear me out: A game where you play a gnome wizard commanding a massive iron golem that you can clamber over for safety, repairs, or to reach high places.Game Developer @Toyojiro3619 showcased a new Unreal Engine 5-made mechanic that lets one climb giant characters, Shadow of the Colossus-style. More demos here: 80.lv/articles/shado… #unrealengine5 #ue5 #unrealengine #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment
00:00 - While we're on the topic of "impossible to build videogame styles"... I've always thought 1970s gouache watercolor concept paintings would look amazing in motion. (midjourney)
00:00 - What is this rendering style and has anyone ever tried to do it in a videogame?
- #UnrealEngine5.6 has a "Locomotor" plugin which provides a new #ControlRig node for procedural locomotion. It takes a target position as input, and outputs an array of feet transforms which animate over time to step towards the goal location. Pelvis motion is also generated.
00:00 - This is procedural animation in #UnrealEngine 5.7, using a Control Rig running a Locomotor to generate footsteps, and the new Control Rig physics to drive the pose to the target step locations.
00:00 - @elonmusk ಅವರಿಗೆ ಪ್ರತಿಕ್ರಿಯಿಸಲಾಗುತ್ತಿದೆThis assumes centrism is most closely aligned with reality. Which may or may not be the case. I say, stick to optimizing for truth and let the politics fall where they may.
- You should follow Industria 2 because... look at it. But also: This is your daily reminder that non-linear step frequency and movement speed is a huge underrated boost to animation fidelity. Real creatures don't smoothly glide around like an Unreal capsule; they lurch, bumpnew animations for our enemies🚶 added stumbles, proper foot placement and more dynamic attack swings!
00:00 - Locomotor is great for huge characters because it guarantees no foot sliding (which is 100x more noticeable on giants).
00:00 - Games need extremely precise control over the world model. I continue to believe we're headed towards a hybrid engine with traditionally simulated game state bolted to an AI rendering engine that will handle cosmetic VFX like footprints in the sand, cloth wrinkles etc.
00:00 - @notch ಅವರಿಗೆ ಪ್ರತಿಕ್ರಿಯಿಸಲಾಗುತ್ತಿದೆA custom engine is a luxury. I've released two indie games on Steam. One using a custom C++ engine, the second on Unity. Engine development became too costly and distracting to maintain.
