@Rapitor heros of the storm is a good, simple moba

@StrixVaria the reason I haven't tried it yet is because I don't really like playing online with strangers and also I have never managed to like any moba

Rapitor

@TheAce topdown controls = nope

StrixVaria

@Rapitor This is what I don't like about LoL.

Chippies

Smite just seems like the gameplay is more interesting than the mouse driven mobas

Rapitor

the only reason I played smite is the controls

StrixVaria

2:01 AM

I like the idea of mobas, and I love the controls in Smite.

It's so nice compared to every other moba.

Rapitor

there was another moba that was like it that I actually liked a bit more (Land of Chaos) but that game didn't survive

Chippies

another thing that keeps me from playing any moba is the need to memorize a ton of stuff

TheAce

@Rapitor thats the main reason i hate smite

StrixVaria

@Chippies I still don't really deviate from the recommended items in Smite.

TheAce

@Chippies don;t have muchto remember in HOTS

Rapitor

2:02 AM

also, i never play the 3 lane 5v5 stuff, not for me. TDM or Assault(ARAM) is all I played.

Chippies

@StrixVaria I suppose you could play for some time without having to research and learn much

StrixVaria

They're updated pretty frequently, if necessary, and even if you turn on auto-buy the items it gets for you are adequate.

Chippies

@TheAce I can't deal with the top down mouse driven mobas, I don't play RTS's either

Rapitor

Smite is also probably the best to newbies, just have auto-buy and auto-skill on and you only have to worry about playing

Chippies

2:02 AM

If you want to get into the standard game mode (conquest), you'll have to spend some time learning. If you want to just play the casual modes, there's really no preparation needed.

TheAce

@Chippies i love them lol

Chippies

we should all play Xonotic some day, that game is the best

@GnomeSlice can confirm

TheAce

@Chippies googles

Rapitor

There was one MOBA (well I wouldnt really consider that, but idk what else to call it), by Square Enix called Fantasy Earth Zero. it was 50v50 and damn incredible

Chippies

@TheAce it's basically modern quake 3 arena

GnomeSlice

2:05 AM

That game rocks

@Chippies Not that modern

TheAce

looks alright

Chippies

@GnomeSlice more modern than Q3

and it requires very little computer resources

I actually played it on my intel gpu once by mistake and it was doing 60+ fps easily

on my nvidia gpu it does well over 120 fps

GnomeSlice

Nice

TheAce

downloading now

Chippies

@TheAce awesome!

I haven't played it in months... blame @GnomeSlice

GnomeSlice

2:07 AM

You know what another awesome FPS is?

@Chippies knows.

Chippies

@GnomeSlice NO!

TheAce

prob can't play it here tho

GnomeSlice

YES

Chippies

IT'S THE WORST, DON'T EVEN MENTION IT!

GnomeSlice

@Chippies you used to love playing that with me

Chippies

2:08 AM

@GnomeSlice I NEVER!

GnomeSlice

Don't lie, we had a shitload of fun playing that awful game

TheAce

what game?

Chippies

I used to enjoy making fun of how shitty it is

GnomeSlice

Recon Arena

Chippies

GAHHHHHHH

THAT NAME! MY EYES ARE BURNING

GnomeSlice

2:08 AM

wtf can't even play it in chrome now

> Sorry, Chrome can't run this app
You are using a version of Chrome that does not currently support the Unity Web Player plugin needed to run this app.
We recommend using another browser, such as Internet Explorer, Firefox or Opera.
Alternatively, you can enable NPAPI plugins at chrome://flags/#enable-npapi (requires browser relaunch).

If you enabled the NPAPI flag and the plugin still does not work for you, try manual install.

I've been seeing this lately

I did the flag change too and it never made a difference

Chippies

@GnomeSlice lolwat

are you using some weird chrome version?

GnomeSlice

apparently some chrome update fuct this recently

My chrome says it's up to date

Chippies

also, try manually downloading the plugin

GnomeSlice

I did

Chippies

or don't

as long as it doesn't work, I don't have to come up with reasons why I won't play that game

GnomeSlice

2:10 AM

Admit it, we bonded over that game

Chippies

@GnomeSlice doesn't make the game any better!

we could've just as well bonded in a different game

although the crappiness of the game helped bond, I guess

Private Pansy

Chrome is dropping NPAPI support for its plugin

Yuuki

Curse my hometown pride. Even though I only lived there for two years and have visited rarely, I'm tempted to buy this Assassin's Creed thing because China.

@PrivatePansy Yeah, I've been having problems with a third-party plugin at work because of Chrome dropping NPAPI.

Chippies

@Yuuki uPlay. That should be enough to stop you from making this mistake. You're welcome!

Private Pansy

And Unity decided not to create a new plugin that's compatible with whatever framework Chrome still has (NaCl?)

Yuuki

2:15 AM

Ooo, Don't Starve Together now includes RoG.

Private Pansy

> In April 2015 NPAPI support will be disabled by default in Chrome and we will unpublish extensions requiring NPAPI plugins from the Chrome Web Store.

> In September 2015 we will remove the override and NPAPI support will be permanently removed from Chrome. Installed extensions that require NPAPI plugins will no longer be able to load those plugins.

Oh, Chrome has PPAPI (Pepper), which Firefox is not supporting

This is going to be a problem

Unity doesn't support PPAPI, while Flash isn't going to support NPAPI in a few years time

TheAce

@Chippies playing it now

Chippies

@TheAce that was a fast download! :P

did you wanna 1v1? ;)

TheAce

really? lol

sure

how do?

Chippies

actually, I need to find if I even have it installed

TheAce

2:27 AM

Chippies

oh hm, I have 0.7 :O when was 0.8 released?...

TheAce

january

Chippies

gonna have 0.8.0 downloaded in ~2 minutes

TheAce

cool

Chippies

@TheAce that explains it then, I haven't played this year for sure

I only play it 1v1 with @GnomeSlice

TheAce

2:28 AM

nice :P

gonna hop into single player just to get a feel for the controls

Chippies

@TheAce yeah, that's a good idea

I have you on steam, right?

TheAce

you do but give me a min im gonna put it on my good computer

maybe you should do your writing for free

spugsley

GodEmperorDune

@Rapitor ooh, what bands/songs?

spugsley

unless you wanna pay me fore some Tom Hiddleston smut? :p

Rapitor

@GodEmperorDune mostly edguy, avantasia, nocturnal rites, and sonata arctica.

user15026

I like sonata arctica

GodEmperorDune

@spugsley how much for a hiddles/dolan fic?

@AshleyNunn yeah me too

spugsley

@GodEmperorDune no amount of money would convince me to do that

NOT EVEN A MILLION DOLLARS

GodEmperorDune

@spugsley how about a billion dollars

spugsley

someone just told me "I don't like your editing work so I won't pay you for editing"

SHUT UP

I hate people

DON'T HIRE ME IF YOU DON'T LIKE MY WORK

Rapitor

4:01 AM

spugsley

I wrote a big post about appreciating art and the process of art (because most clients just see the finished product) and showed a before/after of nonedit with edit to show the difference between an out of camera shot and an edited shot. And so people can see how much work it is.

GodEmperorDune

@spugsley people don't like seeing behind the curtain

if they want to be cheap and have their buddy take blurry iphone pics to record their wedding, that is their problem

user15026

@spugsley in the same hand, people just might not like your style of editing, and may choose something different than what you do.

user15026

Not saying it isn't hard work, but it just might be a stylistic choice.

GodEmperorDune

also it would be cool if you did like a time lapse of the before being edited into the after, unless that reveals your secret methods or something

Rapitor

4:05 AM

it'd probably be a bit of extra work, but you can ask the client what kind of editing they would like done. Although, the customer rarely knows what they want.

spugsley

@AshleyNunn ....yes. I know that. But then don't hire me. It's pretty straight forward

@Rapitor this is a bad decision

@GodEmperorDune I have my secrets :p

user15026

@spugsley okay, you gave like no context.

GodEmperorDune

@spugsley i can see it now "why does she keep using the eyedropper on tom hiddleston pics?"

user15026

I'm just trying to pretend there is a world where not everyone is a bag of dicks.

Rapitor

4:07 AM

@AshleyNunn not in this planet, i'm afraid

spugsley

art (and artists) is pretty underappreciated in general :(

Rapitor

i think it's more misunderstood.

spugsley

perhaps

Rapitor

most people just think its take picture->print->seal->sell

spugsley

a lot of people want art but don't want to pay for said art :(

@Rapitor THIS

so much

user15026

4:09 AM

I mean not everyone is going to be happy with every experience. Had a photog friend my mom hired for family pics, we liked her work online, but when she did edits on our stuff, she did odd things that we didn't like for our specific photo, like over emphasizing the brightness of my unusual hair colour and things. So it is entirely preference.

spugsley

you know who appreciates art? @Ktash :)

user15026

There are plenty of people who appreciate art, but also want something that matches their style and wants, and sometimes, it doesn't turn out how they expect.

spugsley

@AshleyNunn and I hope she made changes based on your preferences because you were her client. But if you don't like someone's work beforehand (not in your case, since you did :) ) don't hire them

Ktash

@spugsley I do, in fact. I have lots of great art on my wall to show for it too

spugsley

find someone who fits your style instead of making them change theirs or making them feel bad about theres

user15026

4:10 AM

@spugsley if someone hired you and then told you they don't like your work, turn down the job?

Rapitor

@spugsley it's not case by case? like adapt to what people want?

user15026

@spugsley well, if I had asked her to edit because her style wasn't liked, wouldn't she feel like you did?

GodEmperorDune

@AshleyNunn i would think it depended on how big the edits were

spugsley

@AshleyNunn you paid her. When money is exchanged, that changes things

user15026

@spugsley. See the thing is, you just came in here and said stuff that sounds exactly like what I am saying, so I am missing some sort of context.

user15026

4:12 AM

Did someone hire you and then decide they didn't like your editing style?

GodEmperorDune

@AshleyNunn i thought these were complaints on @spugsley's blog post

spugsley

@AshleyNunn I certainly did. Sucks because I don't really understand why they would a) hire me then b) tell me they don't like my work...like...wouldn't you just find someone who better fits your style to begin with? O_o

GodEmperorDune

@spugsley sometimes people are not very fluent in expressing such things

spugsley

@AshleyNunn yah. They booked a date and then right before the deposit was given, they said they didn't like my work...lol it was very weird

user15026

@spugley maybe they like your posing or framing or people arranging?

Rapitor

4:12 AM

@AshleyNunn i think she was hired, did the work, customer didn't like, she didn't get paid

spugsley

@Rapitor thankfully it didn't make it that far

Rapitor

oh good

GodEmperorDune

@Rapitor always get cash up front

user15026

I mean people change their minds. Maybe she showed her grandma who was like heck no we can't have fine art, we need boring Sears portaitd

spugsley

@Chippies I manual focus and use a remote timer :)

GodEmperorDune

@AshleyNunn that sounds like an excellent wedding, tbh

Chippies

@spugsley but... how do you focus on yourself if you're not there when you're focusing? lol

it's a also a lot of very not glamorous running back and forth between camera and location

@Chippies either put something in place or run back and forth until it's exactly right

Chippies

spugsley

@Chippies also I'm magic, obvi :p

Unionhawk

@Yuuki I did, woo

@spugsley that's more like it!

@Chippies @spugsley just doesn't want to tell you she's mastered time travel.

And uses her future self to take her self-portraits.

spugsley

4:22 AM

Also I have a twin

Chippies

I recently learned about using live view + zoom + manual focus for very sharp images, it changed everything

spugsley

I also do expansions. So I take a very close shot of me (or model, depending), very sharp and near at like f/1.8. And then I take shots alllllll around and assemble them in post.

so I have a full environment and a very crisp model

is that more magic-y for you? :p

Chippies

@spugsley that's like... literal magic!

spugsley

@Rapitor the newer program is really streamlined, imo

@Unionhawk god yes

Rapitor

yeah, I think i last used it it was CS5 or 6.

Unionhawk

There are entire graduate programs in my field related to image processing

I can take classes on it, but they're all 500 level iirc

It's some crazy stuff

spugsley

I wish I could take classes :( But I taught myself through the intermediate level and most places want you to start at the beginning

I need the advanced stuff

Unionhawk

Classes on it as in processing images on a low level

Rapitor

4:31 AM

no classes. just dive in headfirst and hit buttons until it looks not ugly

spugsley

4:33 AM

@GodEmperorDune yah

Chippies

last time I tried gimp, I had no idea how to do anything

Unionhawk

Like, the math involved in image processing stuff, rather than using photoshop, sort of classes

Chippies

the fact that everything is a separate window did not help

(I've heard you can change that now)

Unionhawk

And that just sounds really hard

GodEmperorDune

@Unionhawk like gpu and graphics engine stuff?

or image recognition?

Unionhawk

4:34 AM

Probably both, the vision lab here is crazy

Image recognition is a graduate project iirc

But like, imagine the math involved in that deblur algorithm

Holy shit

user15026

I just don't art.

GodEmperorDune

well its the phd guys that come up with the algorithm, then they give it to mere mortals to code it

Ktash

Yeah, Adobe has a whole department of PHD people working on that stuff. Called the Advanced Technology Lab. That's just the sort of stuff they do. And then they show it all off internally and it's like "whoa, uhhh... I'm gonna go back to my code now and hope they don't realize I'm not that smart"

Also, the deblur is crazy, but not too terrible for the math. But the processing of it is intense, and the algorithm is crazy I'd imagine

Recently, I came across this question. I wanted to edit it because of obvious reasons. The title was bad, the question was bad and there was irrelevant text in it. Also, it had the wrong tag. But, sadly, I could not edit it. The edit button was greyed out and was no longer a link. So my que...

Q: Is there a way to track total mission playtime for the 'Raid Night' Achievement?

Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty has an achievement to complete the campaign on Normal in under 8 hours. I've already seen the recommended mission list, but is there any way to track how much time in total has been spent? Or do I need to go to the mission screen and add up all the times manually? ...

Remember how pissed of people got at me because we didn't let people charge for mods? Remember how that made me leave Mojang?

Because I'll forget to do that in the morning

Why are gamers literally unpleasable? What the hell. Remind me to never get into game dev.

Kevin van der Velden

@Unionhawk but game dev is fun!

Unionhawk

But gamers are a bunch of unpleasable fucks

Broadly speaking of course

Dear games: please only map keys like Caps Lock to functions that one would typically toggle on for a time then toggle back off. It's a minor annoyance, admittedly, but it takes far longer than I like to admit to figure out why none of my passwords to anything are working after a play session.

@KevinvanderVelden I'm currently annoyed at the use of capslock in GTA 5

Also, at least it's a toggle thing in Skyrim

Kevin van der Velden

Wait, they're using capslock as a non-toggle thing?

(Though to be fair, why would you ever want to disable running in skyrim?)

Sneaking, perhaps?

You're automatically slowed way down by sneaking anyway

Q: Real racing 3, farming for R$ and level up

Which is the most sought after race in rr3 that can shell out most R$ and xp using both the 100% race bonus everyday and manager & agent before said race. Is there any other way to farm using least possible R$ and gold ourselves. P. S. I am aware some R$ and will be used. For the sake of argument...

oh god, there was a rather awesome third-party git tool that tried to ease the merging of two very long branches by literally merging every commit with every other commit

Mad Scientist

@badp It might have gone over better if they paid more than just 25% to the modders, it looks like a blatant cash grab this way. I think paid mods are a bad idea anyway, but not the end of the world

badp

most commits wouldn't give you a conflict, but some did, and those that did were the ones that actually mattered, and you could only solve a small bit of the conflicts every time

and eventually you would end up with a clean merge between the branches, and you'd be done, and the tool would delete all intermediate commits.

I can't remember what it is called.

@MadScientist Mod makers only get 25% because Valve takes a 30% cut on everything they sell and Bethesda decided they'd take 45%.

(On almost all other games, charging for mods is outright banned by the EULA, that is when you are allowed to make mods in the first place.)

I guess what people really are bemoaning is that Bethesda is getting a cut, any cut.

Any fraction of a penny Bethesda gets by sales of SkyUI is them being rewarded for shipping with... the other one instead.

I can see this being a problem.

StrixVaria

@MadScientist Valve takes 30%, and the publisher of the game determines their own percentage. In this case, Bethesda chose 45%.

@badp I will see myself out.

Mad Scientist

@StrixVaria Those details don't really matter for public perception. Everyone getting a larger cut than the modder just looks bad.

badp

@StrixVaria Nah, it's okay. You can help me figure out what that git tool was called.

@MadScientist Sure the net result is bad, but take it with Bethesda, not Valve.

@badp Or both.

All I know is that I really resented having to sign up with NexusMods and installing a custom launcher just to get SkyUI.

I dunno if I $1 resented it, but I did.

Kevin van der Velden

@badp you didn't need the custom launcher you know

You can download it (large files do require an account) and unzip it manually

badp

@KevinvanderVelden hm? I do think you have to use skse_loader

Kevin van der Velden

@badp I thought you were talking about nexus mod manager. But yeah, to use something that hooks various dll functions in skyrim you do need to launch a different program

SkyUI being on steam would not have changed that

(SKSE, for the record, is the SKyrim Script Extender, which makes a lot of stuff possible to mod which isn't possible in vanilla Skyrim)
