aaand login is broken entirely
well, back to starbound again
fucking LoL
 
position 1 in queue and 30 min to wait?
 
yeah that means no one's getting in
 
Just played ArcheAge for the first time

None.
 
whoo finally
 
Straight in.
Although it's just gone down for maintenance
 
position 1 in queue, approx wait 1 hr
 
I'll probably play it tomorrow night then
 
2:18 AM
Wow.
 
i'll beep you if I get in
 
thanks
 
@IcyDefiance ok
i left the login queue
and authenticated agian, and instead of waiting to login, it said "hey! ytou left a game! rejoin?"
 
just tells me server is currently busy
 
try again
looks like 4 of us in there

whoo
 
you have one of the best icons man
 
2:49 AM
OK.
Why do Python programmers have crooked teeth?
...
Because they don't use braces!
 
Anyone know a good library for writing a server for a simple multiplayer game? ACE seems to not have any tutorials.
 
de
I should turn my touchpad off. Hehe.
 
@IcyDefiance well, we won
:)
 
lol that was way closer than I wanted it to be
not sure if we should chance another game...
they enabled ranked again, but I kind of don't trust it XD
you probably want to sleep anyway
 
i could try one more
 
3:05 AM
COPPA is hell.
 
@IcyDefiance what's goin on
 
no idea, but something glitched out
you dc?
 
looks like it
weird errors

6:50 AM
5 minutes to my first highschool exam. Im so going to fail... the good thing is that I get to go home early, and might have some time to dev.
 
7:15 AM
good morning!
 
 
1 hour later…
8:28 AM
@Tyyppi_77 How did it go ?
morning @Christoph
Hilarious
 
that looks great
 
i don't think that's real game footage but its from the Destiny website
I am seriously tempted to give destiny a try
not having PS4 is sort of annoying but I aint buying 1 just for Destiny
 
8:45 AM
Too bad the game is solid, but mediocre at best.
 
user92578
@Wardy Quite fine actually :)
 
but getting aPS4 just for destiny...no
I just got a Wii U for Mario Kart and that was silly enough (but worth it)
 
 
3 hours later…
@GnomeSlice funky
 
user92578
How do I improve the performance of my (very) simple particle engine?
 
user92578
By not printing stuff from every particles Update() method... NVM
 
lol question:
How do I improve the performance of my (very) simple particle engine?
And the answer:
By not printing stuff from every particles Update() method... NVM
 
user92578
lol
 
12:14 PM
that was epic
 
12:29 PM
@Wardy @Christoph But you get Amplitude next year on your PS4!
 
?
I'd rather stick to being a PC gamer
PC games are better :)
when built for PC and not some crappy console port
 
But... Amplitude. I don't know how awesome the new one will be, but the other one was one of the finest video games ever made.
 
user92578
Working on some basic particle stuff:
 
user92578
 
user92578
I kinda like the gun flash effect
 
user92578
12:47 PM
Much better with some forward velocity:
 
user92578
 
Nice
Looks rather explosive
 
user92578
@SpartanDonut Thanks
 
1:15 PM
woohot side scrolling gun-shooting game?
 
user92578
@BlueBug Yup!
 
sweeeet
 
1:40 PM
Heh, potluck reminds me of Bowser in Mario Party :P
His potluck was, everyone gives 20 coins, he keeps it all :P
 
user92578
Aight, time to read to my english exam that's tomorrow...
 
you have the exam already?
that's easy ... sheesh
 
user92578
We have this thing called "The ExamWeek" in my high school.
 
user92578
7 days, 8 exams
 
user92578
then like 7/8 weeks of school, then another exam week
 
1:46 PM
UGLY:

Q: How do I recompile Bash to avoid the remote exploit CVE-2014-6271 and CVE-2014-7169?

AlBlueGiven the fact that Bash 3.2 (the version shipped by OSX) is vulnerable to the remote execution exploit CVE-2014-6271 and CVE-2014-7169, how do I rebuild Bash and secure my system ahead of an official Apple patch?

 
@IcyDefiance It actually made me check the logs to investigate :P
 
user92578
I had Health-Ed today, english is tomorrow, physics on monday, tuesday is free, music-test is on wednesday, math thursday and finally swedish in friday
 
user92578
Luckily I don't have more subjects in this period
 
cartoony Starcraft II mod
 
haha no way
for what its worth, "StarCrafts" is a funny series of StarCraft animations done in that cutesy style and are worth a watch if you are a fan
This mod makes me happy
 
2:02 PM
Icy and I won a game in his series... everyone got booted out of the game
so we had to log back in
but it said "position in queue 1, wait 1 hour"
trying again a couple times made it skip the queue and say "Hey! you have an unfinished game! reconnect?"
we almost lost though

Q: What's wrong with Dr Seuss?

user293594Our toddler is about the right age to start enjoying Dr Seuss books, and I don't see anything wrong with them (I had one as a child which I loved). But my own mother (despite this) hates them, and so does my partner's mother (who's a speech therapist). So what's wrong with Dr Seuss? Is there a c...

 
yeah saw that one
the suess-style answer is awesome
 
it sure is :D
 
Fox in Socks really is a great book.
“When beetles fight these battles in a bottle with their paddles
and the bottle's on a poodle and the poodle's eating noodles...
...they call this a muddle puddle tweetle poodle beetle noodle
bottle paddle battle.”
 
Reminds me of Rhabarberbarbara (Warning: Gerrman).

2:18 PM
That's fucking classic, Martin
 
2:41 PM
I thought Exam weeks were common in school. Finals, Midterms, Quarter-Terms
 
user92578
Well in Finland we don't have examweeks in elementary
 
user92578
Atleast my school didn't
 
user92578
We have 5 exam weeks in a school year, and the in the last year (3rd) only two/three and then national student-exams
 
user92578
Then we graduate
 
user92578
And then we go to university or "University of Applied Sciences"
 
user92578
2:43 PM
I don't really know the word in english
 
Mmm, that'd be like a Vocational School / University.
 
user92578
Yeah... we get to choose between high school and vocational school at the age of 15
 
user92578
after 3 years the ones in vocational go to work, and we in high school keep studying for 5 more years
 
3:05 PM
who else thinks that the rhabarberbarbara video would have its use in certain interrogation techniques?
 
hahaha
 
 
1 hour later…
user92578
4:10 PM
Added some wall-hit particles (not final!):
 
user92578
 
Almost any game is improved by adding more particles.
Witness Geometry Wars 2.
fuck i wish there had been a PS version of that >:(
 
Wii version was actually really good
 
4:50 PM
@Tyyppi_77 more particles please
like 10-1000x more with more bursts outwards
 
5:45 PM
i cannot fucking beleive people try to get schools to ban Farenheit 451 of all books. Wtf.
That kind of shit really pisses me off
 
@Almo can you think of a better way to get more people to read that book?
Telling teens not to do something is a sure fire way of having most of them do it.
 
@Tyyppi_77 I think you should make more particles like Hobo said, but smaller. And make the particles fly backwards towards the player. Maybe less gravity too.
@MartinSojka I've watched that one a million times :)
 
6:00 PM
@AidanMueller sup man. Yeah @Tyyppi_77 what aidan said. Bullets tend to throw particles backwards from the impact point, and past through the impact point.
 
That's why it has so many views.
 
@AidanMueller I got a question about UV editing in blender. got a sec?
 
@AttackingHobo That's not really the point though. If it teaches anyone that supressing books is ok, then there's a problem
 
@Tyyppi_77 @AttackingHobo Yeah the-WOW THE AUTO NAME COMPLETE NOW SHOWS AVATARS I FORGOT WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY BUT THAT IS SO COOL.
 
@AidanMueller yeah it looked a bit strange lol
 
6:05 PM
@AttackingHobo I may know.
 
I take that back, actually.
that argument leads to some incorrectnesses
:)
 
@AidanMueller I'm trying to auto pack UV coords with some buffer so I don't get pixel bleed
 
@Tyyppi_77 What I was going to say is that it doesn't make sense for there to be particles inside of the wall.
 
Work done today: none

the internet exploded in a thermonuclear explosion
 
like if two uvs are too close when I bake, there are artifacts from another color
 
6:07 PM
@AttackingHobo You mean like the UV from one face are visible in another face?
 
@AidanMueller NVM figured it out
My subconcious knew the answer
 
@AttackingHobo Did you spread them apart from each other?
Does pressing enter finally cancel an edit?
 
thats pretty much what I was asking, but manually. I did it once manually. never again
 
Nope.
Stupid.
 
In smart UV there is a paramater called Island Margin

Q: Game develop on android

RatMy computer stopped working recently. Is it still possible for me to develop games directly from my android device? I have already tried playir, but decided I ideally want something more advanced than a drag-and-drop tool.

 
Why the downvote?
 
^
Good question.
 
Solid question with a solid answer.
Too much elitism
 
Another answer might be to use JSFiddle.
 
It's not on topic for StackOverflow.
I didn't downvote it
 
6:12 PM
@Almo oh yeah its a "Useful Question" so obviously its off topic
 
No, it's not a question about a specific programming problem
it's a generic "can I do this with X" question, and vaguely askes for an off-site resource.
 
Pip
6:56 PM
ey
 
'Ey
 
Pip
Sup?
 
Frantically fixing bugs
Gotta get this abomination in a reasonable state for tomorrow
 
Pip
lol
@IcyDefiance heyo
Omfg... when you ping someone using the @ symbol, you can see their profile pictures!
Like, in the selection menu
 
Yeah it's super cool
 
7:03 PM
Look at that
 
Jon
can't stop thinking about this damn girl
anyone wanna see a day night cycle?
 
Pip
yeah
 
Jon
lol... shoulda gotten it ready first..
aight.. brb
 
Pip
Anyone hear anything about not being able to log in to Stack this weekend? I think Google and Stack were having some issues
I could only use GDSE, because I was already logged in... no chat or SO for me
Kind of frustrating actually
 
Jon
hmm, worked for me
although i was out for most of the day sunday
 
Pip
7:05 PM
huh, kk
Going to be away this weekend, too :)
 
Jon
how do you know?
 
Pip
Going to Richmond for a robotics programming conference all day on Saturday, then me and the rest of my robotics team are hosting a workshop on Monday
Three day weekend for me :)
 
Jon
oh fun
 
Pip
Sunday is a prep day for the workshop
I'm giving a presentation on programming practices and RobotC :)
Anyone have some tips? The audience is 8th graders, mostly
 
Jon
no way?
ah
 
7:07 PM
@Pip sounds like it's going to be an awesome weekend for you
 
Jon
programming practices to 8th graders, better keep it simple
 
Pip
Should be! Lots of programming and robotics <3
yeah, definitely
My powerpoint isn't even finished yet :P
 
Jon
if you get nervous, try not to picture them naked
 
Pip
lol, thanks for the image :P
Anyhow, I need another word for the Potluck Jam
 
Yeah I was having a difficult time coming up with words too
 
Jon
7:10 PM
fart tard jamboree
 
I used the stack of Magic cards on my desk as an inspiration :P
 
Anyone know what keyboard layout this is?
 
Jon
the gif is huge
qwerty
 
@OMGtechy Do you mean with the special symbols? Looks like the regular QWERTY layout to me
 
The symbols yeah
I've never seen one like it
Just bought one xD
 
Need to get Windows keyboard layout setup
 
Jon
converted it, sine the original is 20MB
oops
 
Almost a typical keyboard layout in the UK, but the ` and # are in unusual places
 
@Jon looks nice
 
Hey @JohnMcDonald, are my words for the Jam any good? I honestly have no idea.
 
7:15 PM
Use more colors though. sunsets are crazy
 
Pip
@OMGtechy normal :)
 
@Jon ooo night
 
Pip
Oh wait, I'm wrong
that's odd
 
Mmhm
Most of it is normal
most
 
Jon
I actually coded an entire day cycle -- the clock is at the topleft
 
7:16 PM
@Lokkij They are great! :)
 
@JohnMcDonald Yess. :D
 
I don't have a linux distro handy to help me though
 
@Jon you should render the clouds with 3d position and have a small amount of paralax
 
Jon
it has parallax, easier to see in the game
and it is in 3 layers .. each having their own speed and size
 
more layers that are further cause it looks like there are a few 2d images sliding over each other
more layers with individual clouds
 
Jon
7:17 PM
ok
yea, the clouds need to be redone
 
Something that looks like it stretching to the horizon instead of a few guys holding cloud backdrops moving across a stage
 
Pip
@Jon gif?
 
Jon
I was thinking of generating clouds with noise
then just placing them randomly, it would be more organic, instead of having this repeating pattern
 
Pip
nvm :)
 
Jon
did you find it @Pip
 
Pip
7:19 PM
yep
Should make the sun and moon bigger, that's my only criticism
 
Jon
ok, so more color, and better clouds
the sun and moon and placeholders :)
 
@Jon also you might want to have more gradients in the daytime
 
@Lokkij mine are better
 
Jon
like, darker at the bottom?
 
Jon
7:21 PM
hmmm
 
@SpartanDonut Nooo! I have been defeated!
 
Generally lighter on bottom :)
 
Jon
yeah.. i thought it just looked visually nicer like this, lol
 
also clouds at sunset = OMFG eye orgasm
 
Pip
@JohnMcDonald how 'bout mine? I just submitted though, so it might not have hit the spreadsheet just yet.
 
Jon
7:22 PM
hmmm
@AttackingHobo thanks :D
gave me a few good ideas
 
@Jon you know it!
 
Jon
I think I could reflect the sun on the liquids
as it comes down
 
Pip
@AttackingHobo Omgf.... when I worked at a summer camp this summer, I watched the sun set over the Chesapeake Bay every night <3
 
Jon
and the surface of the ground
 
yeah. that would be cool
hmmm what about caustics
sun reflecting/refracting through liquids
 
Jon
7:24 PM
yeah, my artist said he could do something
oh, probably won't go that far
i'll probably just let the light bleed
up to a certain depth
 
@Jon you should include some SUPER EXTREME BEYOND ULTRA graphics settings
that don't give a fuck about performance
 
Jon
lol
 
future proof your pixel art game man!
more shaders than you can shake a stick at!
 
Jon
You are crazy
you should see the design doc for my day/night cycles
 
Sure. host it on gdocs and send me a link or something
 
Jon
7:30 PM
the general idea illustrated here
 
Pip
 
no. :p
 
@Jon cool diagram. Just add a ton more transitions
Watch some timelapses
 
Pip
If I edit it @Noctrine? :P
 
Jon
yeah.. i could slice it up a bit more
 
Pip
7:32 PM
Those are the first words of the video :)
 
Oh, I was saying no because you asked and I'm not starring it :p
 
Pip
lol
 
Hey @SpartanDonut guess what I worked on last night.
 
Jon
bunch of free apps on amazon android app store
riptide 2, out of this world, +more
 
@Jon I can't stand amazon app store
 
7:36 PM
@Noctrine :O
 
@Pip It hits the sheet instantly, and will even update as I'm looking at it. They're not bad, :) I'll make sure to get after people if words are unusable
 
Pip
kk
 
One point though. We're going with robot-ish things ahead of animals. Soooo much easier.
 
Pip
@JohnMcDonald was having some trouble being original there :)
 
hello guys
I just got back from school, they were having a "programming club" XD
 
7:40 PM
Why the " "" "
 
XD
Because they dont know Java yet
 
@TheMuffinCoder Hey, are you going to participate in the GDSE GameJam?
 
@Lokkij Nope not yet
 
What were they using to program with? Wouldn't learning be the point of the programming club?
 
@Noctrine Java
XD yea thats the point but am not going to join it
I was going to be the one to debug
 
7:41 PM
It'd help you learn though.
 
I rather finish learning C++ and blender....
@Lokkij Hey do u know what the theme is?

Q: Anniversary Game Jam 2014 Preparations

John McDonaldOne year ago, on November 1st, we held our very first community game jam, and it was very successful. Every quarter since then, we've continued the tradition with a seasonal game jam, with the summer jam having as many entrants as the previous two combined! Let's keep these jams thriving! For th...

 
Am not going to join but I want ideas on something to make
Ah I see well anyhow thanks guys cya
 
Pip
wut
 
:\
Spotify >>>
 
Pip
7:45 PM
lol
I love Spotify
kinda cool to look at that
 
FIRST?
 
Pip
mhm
 
neat.
 
Pip
Thanks :)
 
Also, we (the entire internet) all know where you go to school now.
 
Pip
7:48 PM
well.... whatever
oh, true
huh
Anyhow, that's an FRC team, and I am also on an FTC team, if you want to know anything else about FIRST
 
I was my schools team captain senior year :p
 
Pip
nice
I am probably going to be programming captain by my junior year
Don't really want to be in charge of the whole operation, there's like 75 people (on the school's FRC team, not my FTC team)
 
We essentially started senior year, was kinda lame - had to drop JROTC for it.
 
Pip
Aww
There's a huge ROTC and JROTC program at my school, never heard of it before I moved here
 
Yeah, IIRC the Detroit Public School system had the largest District JROTC program. It was pretty intense.
 
Pip
7:54 PM
cool
 
@Pip Well... you have an entire month to change your mind, :)
 
Pip
True, true :)
 
Jon
or an entire month to build a time macheen
probably be easier to try to bend time to slow it down, effectively allowing you to travel into the past
 
So... what am I going to do for the jam? I'll have seen all of the words before hand. Do I post these words up somewhere for people to see too?
sorry for just jumping in the convo
