>I saw if it could be ported to Godot and, guess what, it's not possible, not only due to incompatibilities, but due to stupid engine limitations.
Anything in particular? I'm curious because you mentioned "Touhou like", which sounds suitable for Godot

>>1028134
To be clear, a Touhou game is perfectly doable in Godot, without any addons the engine is perfect for that. But a big selling point of Unity is the addons, and Danmokou was so good that it made doing it in Unity 10x easier and prettier even as my first gamedev project.
At wich point I had to ask myself "why am I using Godot, the beginner friendly engine, if even in my first attempts at moving pngs Unity felt better?"
The reason why that happens is because abstractions and limitations will trickle down to even the simplest projects. It doesn't matter that it's unintelligible techno-babble to us, you'll still feel it's effects.
Once you go into more complex games without a clear template, I'd argue it doesn't get better but worse. Shaders, assets and scripts come in clutch in your darkest moments. And Godot is too green to have a real supply of them.

>>1028134
godot is newer and has a smaller ecosystem so nobody has done all of the work for him yet like with Unity. This makes it worse. A game engine is only feature complete when all of the code is already written, leaving him free to spend all of his time poly modeling little girls in blender.
not to say godot isn't objectively worse for 3d, but saying it's worse because you actually have to make your own stuff is retarded.

>>1028191
Well every commercial engine requires you to write an "X game engine" inside of it before making the actual game. Unity has the upper hand because it's the most popular "outer layer" engine so there's bound to be a Touhou template for Unity.
Still, someone had to code Danmokou, and that on its own is much harder than to just sit down and a make a bullet hell as-is. That said, it seems to use a custom DSL for events or whatever which is retarded.

I was curious about which engine limitations prevent the sub-engine from being ported to Godot (like you said here >>1028101).

I've got an awesome project going but /3/ hates the design style I'm going for so I don't post it.

The solution is, and always was, project threads. Dont just post in /wip/. If yku have a whole project you're doing mke a threas for it and post updates.

how exactly do you make money from porn?
you just put your portfolio with anonymous profile out there and hope someone decides to commission you?

>>1026714
Depends on what you want to do, People make animations, still 3D Stills. if you tap into niche kinks that can draw people in as well. You have to at least build an audience before you'd get commissions unless you create stuff out of the get-go that people want commissioned, there is also the route of patreon/substar but lately that's been iffy, it's a good tip jar but if you want big money on there you'd have to basically be a content mill with decent quality work constantly or people will stop donating.

Which one are you thinking of? The tools for most of them are well preserved

>>1027795
I was trying to make a character fir a really old game. Quake 3 Arena. I got really far but couldnt export it because theres no exporter that works on newer programs. Turn out theres a lot of support for Quake 2 but not much for Quake 3.

>>1027755
> is it possible to use AI/LLM?
Sure. Also YT tutorials. It all depends on your game in question.
>>1027797
You probably could export it as obj or fbx or gltf and continue from that using classic tools.

>>1027792
RE engine games are a special case because the tools already exist and they just werk when a new Capcom game is released. Contrary to popular belief, Capcom doesn't really try to fuck modders by obfuscating their engine.

>>1027948
This is the same case for popular engines like Unity and Unreal Engine btw. Although UE is harder to mod when it comes to scripting due to the game scripting being made in C++/Blueprints instead of C# like Unity/RE engine. C# is designed to be "modded"/overridden.

>basically you won't find a fixed setup that looks great from all angles, anime faces just don't work like that in 3d.
DJTHED's pony models (for blender) do this. It works using a simple script/algorithm. The angle of the (pony's) snout and its position on the head changes relative to the camera angle that blender's camera is viewing the model from.
Same with the eyes.
It does this because in order to replicate an effect like that which is seen on the show, certain angles need to be "formatted" onto the body/face shape, formatting impossible otherwise without actually disfiguring/demorphing the model.
And so it does this to attain a show-accurate look in 3D.
As of Dec. 3, 2019, it is free (all the models).
You can try it out here:

Maybe it will help you in building some automation/3D-facial-disfiguring tools in your own software/workflow.

is it possible to drive this using camera angles in a videogame

>>1026674
You can automate it the same way you would in Blender, make a couple key poses for different angles and blender them depending on relative camera angle.

But that's really overkill. In a game either you're in a cinematic pose/cutscene and you'll author that for a predetermined camera angle or path in your 3d software, or you're in gameplay and you can get away with a fixed face that looks good from most angles

idk i see some people talking about the industry dying then i look at their portfolio and i am never surprised. people have some unrealistic expectations to say the least

>>1027327
Back in the day you didnt even need a portfolio, just a copy of 3ds max and a functional brain. Indians and other third worlders ruined the industry that you need to be an ultra Aaa senior for your first job.

Lol this is a lie, you know what out sourcing is? You dont hire anybody in your country when you can hire 10 indians for the same price. Why do you think theres so much talk about tarrifs?? Because the govement is forced to tarrif foreign companies so American companies can develop shit at home because everything else is being outsourced, and when WW3 comes along we wont have any production. This massive globalization is whats creating our dystopia. I got nothing against immigrants but when its en masse it will destroy the job and housing markets, not to mention the culture, but this is exactly what globalists want.

So before you say this is not true, you may want to get a look at the CEO of Microsoft, and CEOs at Google, and every other major tech corpo because theyre jeets hiring more jeets.

Oh and this is not even the final boss wait until Ai get better, and people can do full 3D animations with a prompt. I dont know what any 3D artist is going to do then. Just work on your indy projects as a hobby because I dont see anybody making it with everything thats going on.

>>1027337
Everything is going to hell in a hand basket. ID Software was made by a couple of Nerds and their legacy is still around today. Now you got 400 million dollars and 400 developers working 10 years to produce a massive slop game full of lgbtq and gender politics, ugly characters, and the same generic mechanics every other nodern gane has. Do you really want to be part of this industry? Because I celebrate everytime another woke studio closes. Like I said small teams is the only path forward, just look at No Mans Sky, that game is huge and only made by a very small team like in the 90s. The problem is getting people together with minimal budgets.

>>1027794
I work as a 3D artist in one of the biggest outsourcing studio for video game in the world and am based in europe, i know.
i don't know why you're talking about microsoft or google which are almost not into video game at this point
and you're right in microsoft and google with jeets, the issue is that the quality has gone to shit, and we all know why. imo it's a matter of time before there is a reverse of direction

what i'm saying is that, no big and serious US game company actually want to hire indians or asians. I work with our asian studio daily (no indians) and it's a serious step below. most real and serious game company would rather pay a bit more and hir eof on me than a jeet
so in that regards, yes, if you are trying to get into video game (and not a 2 man studio or scam studio) you are competing with europeans/americans, AFTER that against jeets/asians. just if you can speak and write english, you are already ahead of most asians

That’s noob level, you need to learn rbg, individual model lighting and moving the light. Only then can you learn the advance lessons

>>1027506
You have the backdrop, after that the 3 point lights and the hdri are the most basic things, and after that you can take a look at directional lights and volumetrics.

>>1027511
>That’s noob level, you need to learn rbg

rgb will come right after this (i will not grind these)i just wanted to see if i can improve on rendering,any settings i missed,if the lighting position is bad im focused on values for now as i get a better understanding ill move on

Those are basic driver stuff, not geonode shenanigans or whatever. Just watch 5 minutes of a basic driver tutorial and you'll be golden

>>1026635
you mean you want some kind of adjustment bone? it's the same as normal driven shapekeys then, you just have a non-deforming bone parented to whichever part of the arm which will control your drivers instead of the joint bones themselves. watch a basic driver tutorial as >>1026641 said

A while since I've done this. You'd want to use the eulerangles of posebones in your drivers.
Blender has some sort of autocomplete for selecting an armature and it's bones for driver source but that doesn't work. It has to be posebones.
Also found this:
https://extensions.blender.org/add-ons/easy-driver/
Probably easier to set up. They show the exact use case you mention.

>>1027410
holy shit this is exactly what i needed thank you

>>1026635
imma be so real, use corrective bones instead.

theres def gonna be a time to use shapekeys, but i cant be fucked to learn drivers when the sound of the impending nodification of blender on the horizon.

All we need now is a node for shapekey fields themselves.
