    Made a discord community for free art requests... Linked it on my Mighty Pack page.

    discord community art pages confuse the heck out of me to be honest. I tried to get into them when Nexus mods started being petty tyrant vampires and a bunch of the best modders started refusing to update their mods there but it was so confusing trying to find the actual up to date downloads and stuff sifting through all the communications and such that I more or less just gave up after a while.

    Maybe someone needs to make a tutorial for how to actually use discord for such purposes and develop standardized, easily searchable means of doing so. I'm all for supporting people independently and not having to rely on corporatized monopolies, but its a lot more work than it should be actually finding people hosting through more independent means sadly and everyone has a different format to learn.

    Women always say "I want to be spoiled" then get mad when I spoil them. Why would you say that if you didnt actually want to know the ending?

    that's on the to-do list for scientists: figuring out the female psyche.

    PC got fixed finally. Back online again. Turns out I have no business trying to self repair pcs because it was getting to like 176F / 80C. Shop installed a totally new cooling system and now it runs fine and is super quiet.

    The worst kind of people are those armchair devs who've never finished a game but still act like they know what makes a game objectively good.
    Or those pretentious elitist types who hate everything popular so that they feel different, then wonders why nobody likes them.

    Can something like a game even be objectively good? I doubt it. Either way, you can still generally say something is good/bad based on your opinion. You don't need to be a gamedev to rate a game. You don't need to be a chef to rate a food and so on.

    That's like saying "If you don't like my game, make a better one." which is an arguably stupid thing to say.

    @SGHarlekin yes and no. It depends. "Objectively Good" means you have to assign the Objective yourself. If you're measuring "fun", then it's a matter of measuring emotional investment across players and how many have completed the game. On and on. Just have to state what you're measuring for "Objectively".

    Perhaps the site would benefit from personal status feeds rather than us all sharing the profile posts page. It could be designed that you can choose to share your post, and it has a cooldown to prevent spamming. Otherwise you can post as much as you want on your feed to your friends.

    People can already closely follow projects/developers they are interested in. In the first case, they 'watch' a thread and in the second they 'follow' a member.
    I did not say that this is only a product site; both my actual words as well as facts on the ground show otherwise. But it's primary purpose is not a social media site. Therefore there is no axiomatic reason why it has to provide more than it does.

    It's worth mentioning, I think, that over the years I've seen a lot of posts saying that they are glad that this site does not have the drama of social media sites.

    The main course is dev discussion.
    The off-topic channel is not the main course. But side activity to socialize if you want to talk about something off-topic. Removing it wouldn't help. Again, the main course is dev discussion.

    My PC just shuts off randomly now. Nothing coming up in Event Viewer. Power Supply Failure? I havent been able to replicate the shut off.
    Either way looks like Im out of commission for a bit.

    boot up from a USB stick with a skeleton system to rule out a virus.
    if it still shuts down, it's a hardware problem.
    if the fan ramps up too much, it's a heating problem.
    it being 50º has nothing to do with it... it could be the fan not being able to bring it any lower according to what's set in the BIOS, and so, it shuts down.

    to rule out a RAM problem, download RAMRush, boot up from the USB and run a memory wipe.
    if it crashes, that's your culprit.

    Or, if you're not super-savvy, most places I've looked have a flat standard fee for running diagnostics. So I don't think saving them time is a big concern.

    Super Mighty Pack is set to come out at like 6:09 EST today. It is not free, it will have a subscription service.

    I guess a graphics pack with a paid subscription service and dlc isnt actually as absurd as I thought.
    I guess some people use -a website we arent naming I guess- for that sort of thing. I dont know if thatd be right for me though.
    Releasing the SMP in waves might be an idea if it gets it out faster.

    Honestly it isn't that much of a stretch these days... So yeah, walked right into that one eyes wide open xD

    Wether or not it's sustainable in the long run is a different matter tho.

    Releasing things, especially large things, in waves is always good in my personal opinion both to retain costumer base' aswell as your own sanity.

    Has anyone else ever thought about how the title of Gym Leader is usually hereditary? Usually the gym leaders child or sibling becomes the next gym leader. Not always, but usually. Pokémon nepotism

    I can't remember every instance of this, actually. Offhand, I know Falkner, Janine, and Flannery succeed their fathers, though we only ever meet Janine's pops as a Gym Leader. Roark follows in his father's footsteps too, but they run two different Gyms in Sinnoh.

    I can't immediately recall any other cases of this.

    Spend more time building up what you like, and stop tearing down things you don't. If you only tear stuff down, nobody will get to enjoy anything.

    Came back cuz of the sale. Got MZ. The System 2 advanced settings for UI are so frustrating, and I see we still hate pixel fonts. Marvelous.

    There are some bitmap font plugins around that might help? Not tested any yet though.
    gstv87
    gstv87
    I'm not very familiar with the various fonts formats, but shouldn't they have like multiple sub-sets for various sizes?
    I mean, when you resize a font, it usually scales the main set... but I was under the impression that font files could have multiple sets for this, and non-standard sizes (unless what I saw was a very custom font that had this)
    shouldn't be hard to make a pixel font for MZ.
    The Mighty Palm
    So its confirmed MZ will have tile size locked at 48x48. So thats extremely lame. Still probably going to get it for the assets but Im gonna pout the whole time.

    I’m there with you :( ... I’m still holding out hope that this RM has a “just as good” setting they haven’t revealed yet though. For me, the issue was not that I didint want to upscale assets, it’s that it clashed with the menus that way...I never figured out a work around for it. :(

    There was shazs tile resize plugin’ but if you made the tile size smaller than 32x it breaks the menus too... (makes them small so everything doesn’t fit)

    My problem with a 3x upscale is that the icons don't scale evenly. You have to do 10x10 and have a couple extra pixels at the edges after an upscale, or 11x11 and have one pixel cut off, no matter what it doesn't quite line up with the rest. Working with 24x24 tiles and a 2x upscale is better, but there's not a lot of resources at that size and it's unlikely to be useful outside RM.

    I used to really enjoy them, but my allergies flared up big time and now I suffer a lot every time someone breaks them out. Since we have a local holiday later, it makes the entire month full of gunpowder and suffering.

Knocked through three more rough draft sprites. (A frog beast thing, a skeleton, and vampire bat) down to seven sprites and a thing more appropriately done as tiles.
