I got into vertex shading in lieu of doing anything UV-coordinate related.

For reference, that’s what Mario Sunshine used to fake most of the game’s shadows, and the original Homeworld used them to create the entire skybox back when 3d-dedicated hardware wasn’t too common.

That’s the problem when you have a bunch of narcissistic opportunities vying for power. Eventually, they start trying to push each other down the stairs…

Nah, icicles are occasionally sharp…

I’m going to start calling them Tesla hatchbacks.

I won’t even pick up a new game if it’s got more than 3 types of tokens/currencies anymore.

Especially if it looks like it takes more time to set up and explain the rules than it takes to actually play the game.

This is what happens when we let foreign interests fund our politicians.

I have to admit I have no proof other than it wouldn’t be the worst thing these kind of companies have done.

That, and as far as putting down any sort of ‘grassroots’ movement, making them look like fools is a move straight out of Freakonomics in regards to how the KKK was effectively out on blast by the Superman radio Broadcast of the day.

By showing how crazy and dumb the organizations ‘secret codes’ & ‘rituals’ were, their numbers dropped precipitously.

I’m still not convinced that these guys aren’t being fronted by oil conglomerates to make real climate activists look like morons.

Considering that a US hospital will charge you a few grand for even looking in their direction these days, $2,500.22 for something serious, like seizures, sounds like a steal :(

They’ve been doing the same thing to Hospitals for years…

Ideally, it would be the same word over and over, so that we can trick the AI into ending all sentences with the word. Bonus points if it is the word “buffalo”, since it can from a grammatically correct sentence.

Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo

Damn, has it been that long already!?

That’s the ‘soon’ I was referring to, I guess. He’d been working on another game in the same universe when he got the rights back.

Mentioned in this thread.

And I believe the designer got the rights back fairly recently, so I’m hoping for more of this!

Which ever episode it was were the main love triangle chick flipped her car in broad daylight on a mostly empty road with no traffic.

I realized that almost none of these characters would have survived the initial outbreak.

I’ve had a lot of fun with Book of Demons, which is a bit more simplified, but really respects whatever amount of time I have to put into it!

Or worry about all of the asbestos, lead, and formaldehyde -laced building materials that were all of the rage in previous decades.

Make it out of balsa wood. That way it’s biodegradable.

The only things in that range around these parts are going to be burnt out husks of a house with a cheery “fixer-upper” in the listing title…

Doesn’t matter how similar it looks though.

The only way to tell is to open up both models and look at individual points of the 3d mesh. If their positions in 3d space match up to, say the hundred-thousandth of a decimal, then it is a copy.

But if the model was scaled or rotated or whatever, there would be no way to prove a case because there wouldn’t be a match.

The same thing was done to prove games was lying about copying models from previous games when they claimed that it was too difficult to add all previous monsters into different games because their converter tool was giving them issues.
