The way I'm going about the upcoming release is basically using the playerbase as alpha testers. You guys will probably find a myriad of issues, I'm expecting dozens, that will need to be patched over the first few weeks or so, because of just how large and dynamic the game is. I couldn't playtest all of it, at least not efficiently, if only for the reason that I am but one man. When (not if) you find a bug, I'll have a public scrumboy to report them to.

>>43556298
That is actually a really good idea! I'll add that! I'll just make it so that Anon, as any race, can use "unicorn" levitation magic to hold shit in VR. It's a little off-canon, but it's a clever solution, and can be handwaved (hoofwaved) away by saying human magic shit is weird. I don't think constant magic visible hands would work since "Hands" aren't really a concept in Equestria, but it'll be little glowy indications of where your hands are and whatever you grab gets a magic sheen around it in sync with the color of your eyes. I'll try to have a function to switch between that and controlling the bones of your actual pony legs so you can boop a pony with your hoof.
>>
>>43555136
will there be a smaller map option for better performance? I don't think twice the size of Skyrim is totally necessary, personally.
>>
>>43556574
Tried it; gets around 5-10 FPS more. It's already a default option on Medium and Low settings, so if you need the extra FPS turn down the render distance.
>>
>>43556794
What are your specs?
>>
I agree with this strongly, I’d love to have a fully realised Equestria the size of Skyrim.

I would also love if this game had photorealistic graphics.

I would also love if this game hired the voice actors from the show and also was co-directed by Faust.

But I can have that. I think it would be best if anon dev just focuses on smaller things, like Ponyville. I mean most of us are probably going to stay in Ponyville longer than other places anyways.

Anon, this is a sandbox game where you create your own story in Equestria using AI. I imagine the "story" is going to be a short intro about you getting to Equestria. Everything after that is up to you and the AI.

Well, fuck. I owe it to (You).
Even if I give up on developing more features and fleshing out the game even further, I will still release the game as it is, which is entirely playable right now as just cute AI ponies doing cute stuff, with quite a lot to do. So rest assured that the game is already 'done' and has a 0% chance of not being put out there in any capacity. I cross my heart hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye, that I won't just vanish. Right now it's just being refined, polished, and further featured before initial release.

To the dev, as a future transport option I really hope you'll be able to use the train to travel around Equestria in real time.
One of my favorite VR experiences was the VRChat Friendship Express map, just sightseeing with the show accurate landscape and landmark locations in the distance, listening to the chugging of the train while instrumental songs from the show play, it was unbelievably soulful. It's one of the few times VR has made me feel emotional.

>Call a pony from anywhere
How about a flare gun and having multicolored flares in inventory
Shooting one into the sky calls upon a pony
Are you thinking about spawning it in the vicinity, like RDR2 does? Or having it more complex, like making a pony travel from wherever they are?
Could also be a system that compares how much a pony likes you vs distance. If one is unlikely to follow you around town, why would they bother going anywhere when you call. Or I guess AI will handle deciding it if the call is just a prompt for it to find you
>>
I think a whistle would be better. I feel like a flare gun would just leave such an ugly trail in the sky. I think a whistle, with a wheel selection for a pony, would be a quicker and more lore friendly way of doing so.

It also allows ALL ponies to be summoned. Flares would be restricted by colours. For example a purple flare might signify Twilight or Cheerilee.

A whistle could be preloaded with the mane 6 and then if you want, you could tag a pony and then whistle for them later.

Whistles are also just more intuitive, being something you would use on an actual horse.
>>
I also feel like having a flaregun in a mlp game like this out be a little out of place. Why not instead having a letter item where you specify which pony you want to meet, then derpy comes right away, takes the letter and then the pony you wanted to see shows up?

Whistle is a good idea; it'll be an option exclusively to ponies who are 1. In the same town/city as you, and 2. have become one of your Close Friends. Either that, or the AI can trigger it once you become a Close Friend. I capitalize "Close Friend" to emphasize that it's the relationship scorer feature like the PPP impressions mod rather than a nebulous concept of deep kinship

Honestly I love the idea for a unicorn but it sounds immersion breaking for anyone else. Ponies lean back on their hind legs to hold stuff or raise their forelegs all of the time; maybe some optional way to toggle raising your hooves would work so it doesn't look super jank with your hooves up constantly?

Maybe make it so the hooves only raise when you are holding something. Then have "ghost" hands when not holding something so you know where your hands are. Don't know if that would be possible or if it would look strange.

It's been around 2 months since I had the idea. Am I making good pace? The larger it gets, the harder it becomes to make new features, and working backwadds to previous features reveals the issues of how they intermingle. At some point, I have to call it done, so I'm not gonna add any MORE features and just work on refining what is already here.
>>
>>43569161
I'll be a bit harsh, but know I'm 100% supportive of the project and appreciate what you're doing. It's really cool.
>Release is taking longer than I'd like.
>It's been around 2 months since I had the idea. Am I making good pace?
You were a bit too optimistic with the first estimation, IMO. It's the classic 90/10 rule; the last few optimizations and bug fixes will take way more time than you expect.
The more you advance, the more difficult it gets for the models too due to the size and complexity of the project. You'll need to test things yourself, and adding a feature can break others you've already done, so testing compounds the further along you go.
There's also the motivation/morale factor. You're excited at the start because cool stuff is getting implemented, but the more you work on fixes and small things, the more that excitement fades. It's normal, but it's why a lot of hobby projects die in the "almost done" phase.
I'm really glad another anon pushed you to focus only on Ponyville and the bare system first, because you were really scope creeping. I still think you are to some extent, but less so now.

Still, at the end of the day, you're doing a hobby fan project, so don't sweat it if you need more time. I would've said you're free of expectations, but you did take donations, so still focus on delivering something. Just take your time. Better to release something solid late than something broken early. Everyone expects bugs in a first release, but if it's totally broken, you'll have more difficulty regaining anons' interest in the future or having them have faith in the project.
>>
>>43569186
I'm testing right now. Playing the game as I would an end user, having fun, and it's going quite well, if not for a few minor things. I have all I need to ship a delivered, mostly functional game, where you talk to AI ponies that come up and hang out with you. After the release I'm sure I'll be... flooded, with bug reports, but after the v1.1 patch all will be fine, probably. I only have one game tester besides for myself.
>
I agree that the ponyville focus was very, very necessary. I still think that, 2 months from "basic idea and walking simulator with no ponies" to what I have now is making pretty good time. And I'm well aware of the 90/10 rule...
My most problematic area is AI control over the ponies and navigation. I'm working on it and it's getting better, but because there are so many infinite edge cases, it will never be perfect. There are just some things it can't do.
Getting a good navigation system is really hard, as well. Dynamic pathing is a fucking nightmare.
You don't fuck with people's money, though, so I'm working really hard on getting the game to be up to snuff with what was promised.
>>
>>43569161
Bruh, it's a full VR experience. This shit is far further than we would've seen by now. Quit worrying about how much time it's taking and worry about getting down the basics.

When on the moon, Anon's shadow seems to have no head.
I guess it's because he actually doesn't have one for FPS purposes, but most engine let you make shader that *only* render their shadows, mostly for this exact kind of situations.
Unity even has that directly into the basic MeshRenderer component, not sure which engine you are using.

>>43598834
I might have leaned too far towards cozy rather than cartoony. I'll see what I can do. It's unfurnished at the moment, which should help. Also, the creators of rnl_ponyville commented giving me their blessing to use their assets, which really relieved me, and they even offered to help create/work on models! I'll see if they follow through with their offer, but wow, kudos to them for being cool.
>>
>>43598769
I think it shouldn't be overly cartoonish though. That would take the realistic feel and immersiveness away
>>
>>43598531
Its not the best, but it should be powerful enough to run a very lite version on low fps. Its a few years old samsung galaxy. I don't care if it would lag a lot. I don't expect it to work flawlessly on a phone. The important thing is that I can play it on Android at all

Use an AI provider, first of all... and second of all, maybe you can get around ~40-60fps on Very Low. The Quest 3 is around equivalent to a 1060 so maybe.

>>43587061
Fantastic work anon. Part of me almost wants to wait a year or two for when it becomes a truly polished experience, but I know the moment the alpha drops I won't be able to resist. This is probably the most hype I've had for a VR project other than the Marrow 2 update for Bonelab

Not involved in the project but I assume you may be able to tie in a different language model to adapt to yours if one is available. Can an experienced anon who does AI stuff chime in on this? I'm curious if something like this can possibly tap into multi-lingual scenarios.

Also a side note, that giant Celestia was pure unf. It would be cool have her appearance in ponyville be an event like the Trixie show idea. She can appear in a winged chariot while a bunch of ponies gather. A similar thing could be done with Luna, but at night of course.

How is the AI voice provided? Is it local, do you have to provide an API key?

Also a bit of a dumb question, but the specs conversation got me curious how a 3060 12GB, Ryzen 7 9800x3D, and 32GB DDR5 RAM would run this alongside a Quest 3?

(I've been struggling SO much to post on this thread OMG)
>>
>>43631043
It'd probably run it fine, nonny. Voice AI is provided by you, preferably moss-tts but other tts providers can be modded, probably.
>>
>>43631105
Alright, thanks. I'm just a bit new regarding TTS, so how hard will this be for beginners to set up?
>>
>>43631249
No idea. That's kind of an x-factor, depends how good at technology you are lol.
I'll set up a Google Colab notebook that allows you to run a TTS instance with a free google account and paste a link in, and include it in a "full tutorial" section.
>>
I'm fairly good, at least I'd hope so. :P

Regardless, I can't wait to dive into Equestria, it's been a dream of mine since I started watching around 2 years ago, 12/4/2024. Twilight shall get all the praise I can give from the bottom of my heart :3

Das not nice :c
What about softer butt patting or swiping that makes it still jiggle but(t) less? Or grab and wiggle it like jello?

Playing spike should just turn the game into a standard RPG, with quests and (non-pony) enemies.
Probably too much effort for the dev tho, so just a wishlist item

Bump
>>
>>43644621
It's an interesting idea, but i agree with the anon above, it would be really too much effort for the dev, making an almost completely new game, basically. But that's something that could be worked by any modder out there, and also add the combat system which was scrapped completely iirc.
Also, another interestng idea, would be to take like mini quests, not full blown adventures in some distant part of Equestria or smth. More like, doing favors to locals, maybe saving a lost foal in the Everfree, etc.
