*ruins your immersive video games experience
Testers liked it though. Are you more qualified than actual videogame QA? Didn't think so
>>736883739I haven't played a single game that resorted to using yellow paint because the developers were too retarded
>>736883739immerse my ass on your face
>>736883739
>>736883739>immersiveI don't get immersed because I can tell the difference between reality and fiction.
>>736883846This I don't play shit games.
>>736883739There isn't a single good game that uses yellow paint
Sounds like a real problem, it would be a shame if an extremely powerful specimen were intentionally guiding you toward a world-ending catastrophe
>>736883739I've never played a game with the yellow paint.I will say it's given me some joy. The Final Fantasy webm that:>has paint marking over a place you can climb>the path ends in a dead end>a button prompt on screenIs hilarious. These design tools goes beyond "the player is stupid".
>>736883739Yellow paint exists in real life.
>>736883739australium isn't that bad
>>736883739I get why they do it but surely, there must be better ways of funneling the player.
>>736883739Holy shit a floating can of paint
>>736884163Seen this mentioned before and even though it's lampshaded as a specimen like this...>this (3rd sector)>one splat in the control room area to show a path past the turrets that would otherwise be impossible to know>one splat in the night realm at a confusing place (4th sector)>ONE handholdy splash in power services (5.5th sector) that I've never even seen someone else notice>can't think of any in the 6th sector>one that's literally in a vent with no alternate path in the final sectorThat's all in the whole 90 hour game. It's a pretty barebones joke.
>>736883739>be OP, waddle outside (he's obese and never does this)>see the road>"HURRRRR BAD DESIGN"
>>736884339Wait until he learns it's used to give hints.
>>736884590
>>736883974>Getting immersed in something means you can't tell fiction from nonfiction lolwut?
>>736883974retard doesn't know what immersion means
Yellow paint is a consequence of everything being extremely detailed in modern games. In older games, important or interactable objects were given more detail than others.So games need a different way of telling you what you can interact with.
>>736883739>TFW like yellow>No one in Warhammer paints their army yellow
>>736884746>>736884783>people who can't separate reality from fiction big mad>bigly>of the madly>immersivelyLAWL KOK RUFFLES LE MAOTake the L, Gary.
>>736884952>actual IESLBBeing immersed doesn't mean you think you're transported into the virtual world, retard.
>>736883739Indiana Jones and the secret circle was pretty good with this actually.It uses white paint and rags wrapped around stuff to mark stuff in Vatican because there's literal reconstruction work being done and you see painters working. In other places like Egypt or Siam it's mostly weathered/worn out stone texture.
>>736884836>In older games, important or interactable objects were given more detail than othersI believe that more often than not, this was due to technical reasons and not intentional (objects being sprites, not part of the background and later on, objects being 3D instead of pre-rendered) but it had the useful consequence of making stuff obvious.
>>736884932https://unitcolorcompendium.com/tag/yellow/Time to Battletech.>>736884989Ok, Gary. Keep being immersed, Gary.
>>736883786I was gonna say there are plenty of examples of QA people being giga retarded like in that HL2 webm but that kind of person is the target audience so maybe they do know best
>>736883739In the nearly 5 decades that video games have existed as we know them, no developer on the planet has EVER found a way to get players to look up. Gamers are fucking retarded, and you NEED to have your hands held. Shut the fuck up and cry the fuck more, you stupid little bitch.
>>736883786Testers need it, because they don't have two brain cells to rub together. Ruining the visual design of your game so that dumb people will immediately know where to go doesn't seem like a good trade. The only one that gets a pass is nuGoW, where is the paint is diegetic and has a in-lore reason for being there and why it's yellow.
>>736885049Okay, keep being a third worlder ESL faggot. BOOM btw.
>>736885010>Vulkan gameNOPE.
>736885250Gary's been shitposting about yellow paint and immersion for years. GARY BE MAD
>>736885105There's a reason why mouthbreathing retards are used for testing. Experienced players will gravitate towards what you're "supposed" to do. The average player will run into things devs wouldn't think of doing because they don't have the idea that you're not "supposed to" do it.
>>736885253vulkan mogs dx12, winjeet
>>736885319oh great another "you lost, eric" schizo just what /v/ needed
>>736885406Then why do all games that use Vulkan flop horribly, lincel? Nobody wants that *p*n s**rc* shit on their brand new Dell.>736885482>Gary so mad
>>736884583There's more, but that's the thing, the paint is ironically very easy to miss, because the areas are actually well designed and don't need to literally paint the way for you.
>>736885510what a clown you are, defending a corpo with 18k jeets in their employ
>>736885594Red Hat has 18k jeets?
>>736885631no, microsoftthere's a reason dx12 loses benchmarks, it's complete jeetware
>>736885510>Then why do all games that use Vulkan flop horribly, lincel?Does the average gamer even care so much about graphics APIs that it can affect sales like in the late 90s?Because that's what you're implying here.
>>736885809Yes. If they see a game has Vulkan or OpenGL, they don't buy the game. They steal it instead, since filthy *p*n s**rc** lovers support thievery anyway.
>>736884583almost every door that is accessible or a shortcut is also yellow, while always locked doors are usually red
>>736883739Maybe you can use some Yellow Paint to guide a Bitch to your Penis, Fat Boy.
>>736885945The first part isn't the case in any consistent fashion, only the red locked doors are a real pattern.
>>736885510seethe lmao
>>736884989my anus is so immersed you wouldn't believe
>>736886051I just thought it was a fairly nice concept that seemed to be kept in mind, as I first noticed it in Flathill. Sure there's always fences or different colored doors, but a lot of the progress ones happened to be yellow, too.
>>736886145Now post your evidence.>I-I can't!
>>736886051There's one red door in hydroplant to trick you with that's openable
>>736886252where do you think i got it retard?https://youtu.be/hg8sFv2I1Sw
>>736886316Now post YOUR evidence.
>>736884163Is the implication that Dr Cahn was just manually painting to lead you to end the world and not that it's a real IS with magic properties?
>>736886365i'm not booting into my windows install for a winjeet shill
Instead of yellow paint, why don't they just have a feature where you press a button and the game tells you where to go/climb?
>>736886434i'm using arch btw
>>736885874I know this is just a FUD bot or whatever but open source devs are stolen FROM by closed source devs massively more than the other way around.
>>736886496>stealing something people give awayAre you that dumb?
>>736886438Why not just do it Dead Space style and make a literal GPS.It's at the press of a button so you don't need to use it if you don't want to, and you can instead focus on making believable level design. Not that modern devs care about level design.
>>736886468so you're just going to keep being annoying, winjeet? directx12 is going to drown in the same toilet that windows is currently being flushed down
>>736886529They show legal contracts about giving credit and often needing permission to use them. They are also OPEN SOURCE so if they steal anything, it's extremely easy to spot. Are you going to keep up this dishonest charade all thread?
>>736886653>stealing open sourceIt's open. You can use it. Don't be an Indian giver, Indian.
Shouldn't enemies and attacks and bullets zipping by also have yellow paint?
>>736883786>
>>736886778If only we knew how bad things really were
>90s>look up guide if we were stuck>2020s >we need yellow paint despite all the youtube videos, guides and social boards able to help us
>>736886778And everyone uses them because why not? They literally surround your cursor with every single bullet and footstep.
reminder that no one could've realsitically painted this in context of dead rising 1
You want perfectly yellowless games? Come back to the Virtual Boy, red man.
Why not just have an option to turn on yellow paint when you begin the game?
>>736886316Ok, so I only have one game installed that supports Vulkan: Zombie Army 4.>it's a bad choice because it doesn't confirm my biasFuck you and fuck Vulkan. Top is DX12, bottom is Vulkan.I got rid of the individual times for every frame shown (it was like 160k lines), but here's the log for the DX12 run: https://pastebin.com/5PE33ZpnAnd here's Vulkan: https://pastebin.com/BZKPSNFp(Point of interest, the first 5-6 frames of DX12 start at 5msish and stay that way, but the first frames of Vulkan are over 25ms before it levels off.
>>736887175They're textures baked into the world design, not easy to remove unlike UI elements like sparkles.
>>736887271>literal who game>overinvested in microjeet shilling with one of the most overpriced nvindia flagshipswhat a trustworthy source you are
>>736886637
>>736887375>I post my evidence>you can't post yours because you're a filthy liar who watches yt videos instead of actually playing games>"t-the game you chose isn't good enough!"Of course it's a literal who game. It uses VULKAN.Why even care about benchmarks when YouTube videos cap out at a pathetic 60fps?
>>736887281I've done 3d stuff myself, you can just plug in a variable that swaps the base textures.
>>736887452But you'd need a texture to replace it which is the same surface minus yellow paint. The paint isn't an additional texture on top of the surface. That requires redrawing, since you don't have access to the actual source material.
>>736883739i thought that it was most memes and stuff but this shit really is all over the place in RE3 remake
>>736887441yes, a youtube video is a more trustworthy source than you, you got that rightdirectjeet is going to lose long term whether you want it or not, no one is going to bother making shit for a single platform that's constantly slipping and xbox goes extinct
>>736887571>can't post evidence>still keeps lyingWhy can't you just honestly present the overwhelming evidence that there seems to be supporting how superior linux is?Why lie, liar?
>>736887586Jeet means victory
>>736883786Testers and QA are different even though they both do "testing."Testers are there during early-to-mid development to decide what sections of the game need to be iterated on. Like if a puzzle is unintuitive to solve.QA is usually done very late in development and most of the extent of what the QA can report and fix are text mistakes and crashes. The QA can report shitty game balance bullshit but the devs are very unlikely to make big adjustments to the game at that point.
>>736887657wow, an actual schizo*takes a picture*
>>736887498I've used substance painter myself, they just need to create the non yellow paint texture then bake it. Then go back and make a copy and then add yellow paint, then bake it. There now you have two textures. Here I'll show you, it's literally just layers than can be turned on and off.
>>736887498Doing it the other way you suggested would be trivially easy. They removed all baked in lighting to force your PC to do the same thing manually, they can do the same thing but easier with new yellow paint games.
>>736887724>man posts evidence>failed mail fails to post evidence>man is a schizo because he called out failed male on obvious dishonesty>failed male refuses to back up claims>failed male tucks>failed male does furry RP anus symbols
>>736887790>still thinks he's in a debate about Linuxbro I was hoping you would just say you replied to the wrong thread and then we could laugh about it
>>736887785But I'm referring to after the fact. Yes, in development, it's easy. You can even layer textures with paint having alpha channel. The problem is most games just bake the paint and be done with it.
>>736887673no one cares what poo scribbles translate to, they're not tolerable in text or speech, being named sukhjeet dikshit isn't something to brag about
>>736887790bro sorry I replied to the wrong threadI concede that DX12 and Windows are superior and I'm a communist bitch who furry roleplays on 4chan *kisses your glans*
>>736887878that's gay but I'm glad you realized this isn't the Linux thread
>>736886857Even in banham hard difficulties remove the indicators. Many modern games don't.
>>736887831>The problem is most games just bake the paint and be done with it.You can go back an do another rebake. Shit takes less than a minute. It's the same method they use for palette swaps in fighting games.
>>736887878why are winjeets like this?
>>736887878I'm sorry I said that was gayI replied to the wrong thread againhmu on discord (fursona: Firedash69) and I'll send pics of me squatting on a bad-dragon horse dildo*slowly gives you a handjob outside your pants while you eat ice cream*
>>736887968I think that's only Asylum. It's a New Game Plus feature in the other games, not from Hard Mode.
>>736886705Not the guy you were arguing with before, but holy shit your parents should've beat you more for being this retarded
>>736888447>Goodwill stole the stuff I donated :(
>>736883739>>736883786>muh testers
>>736886705you're so brown you don't understand what a high trust society is, hence your cluelessness about what open source licenses are
>>736888470>Gorilla brain can't understand issues with a modicum of complexity
>>736884501they decided level design was cringe and that it can be outsourced to india just like everything else
>>736883739it was really annoying to play outer worlds 2 with the yellow cables and yellow blankets all around
>>736888716He knows, he's being paid to be wrong.
>>736883739*was always there in different ways
You kids don't remember Kings Quest design philosophy. No one actually wants to pixel-hump again for unclear progression, you think you do but you don't.
>>736889171>people shilling the open source corpoglobohomo initiative
>>736883739Yellow paint is the product of diversity hires as testers toblow iQ to play a single game, but they just want the tester money.Tester pools from DEI campaigns Female age range 18-35 Male age range 18-25(Most of them they don't even speak English they just get the job because it pays them $9hr) Usually provided by some temp hire agency.They rude predominant from one demographic, loud, obnoxious, and create litter and break/damage equipment on every session.If the testers fail to pass the level, or accomplish the set goals, their low iq feed back is return to the developer (more yellow paint group B,C,D spend 40 minutes looking for a door)The game has to be dumb down to its most simple play form factor, becuse the testers are dumb as a bag rocks.
>>736890787People were stupid before that. Adventure games always had problems with people who said "moon logic" when they were too stupid to figure out simple puzzles.I give yuropoors a pass on the monkey wrench in Monkey Island 2, but there's a lot of stuff that the average gamer is too dumb to figure out.Hell, the first Monkey Island with the map/recipe puzzle, or Sam & Max with the Vortex door puzzle. Some people just don't have those brain functions.Now with gaming being a more popular concept, you have a larger and louder pool of retards. They now just watch the cutscenes on YouTube instead of playing. You have to cater to them or your game won't succeed.
>>736890992Remember games that age well usually don't insult the player intelligence.Thats a fact!
>>736890748>corpoglobohomoyou mean windows?imagine wanting your operating system to be a jeet filled black box that you can't control
>>736891325That's why I don't run linux. I don't want China putting exploits in compression libraries.
pretty funny that instead of preaching to the choir about the same old issues with yellow paint, this thread is filled with some madman and chumps who don't know one shouldn't feed the trolls
>>736892935mark the trolls with yellow paint then we'll talk
>>736893186>fantasy rangers dump paint on forest trolls so that peasants don't get ambushed by a hill that suddenly comes to life
>>736883739Immersionfags deserve it.>>>/wsg/6124628They just want games to be like movies but still look like a game. The ideal immersionfag game is a game with a super AI constantly tricking the player into thinking that they are playing challenging game well. For example, if the player is a shitter who can't be bothered to learn basic mechanics, the game will do it for him and gaslight him to thinking that he learnt to do it himself.
