>>558713678how about you watch the whole thing instead of skimming through it
>>558713301I do AI because I'm afraid to ask for advice here.I looked at a ton of tutorials but they never seem to explain what I'm looking for.
New thread feels good as fuck
You should make a top down rpg with platforming and puzzles
reaching a level of quality that will BTFO the industry.
Happy birthday stardew valley!
>>558713580[SAD NEWS]Benbo Quest is cancelled. Dev that was taking part in v3expo said he's done and through gamedev, citing his family as a reason. That also means he's a fakecel and a normie so fuck 'em.
>>558713891That's because you're retarded and you're looking for quick fixes to fundamentally unsound solutions. Our exchanges are the equivalent of>how do prevent groundwater from seeping up through my floor?>build a proper concrete foundation>no no no but I already started building my home on topStart over from a proper humanoid base mesh.
>>558714556video games are NOT toys they're a serious artform for real men to enjoy!!
another day of thinking about making a video games and then never doing anything
Give me names of games/animes/movies with large, seedy underground cities. I need to make a mood board before I start drawing.

>>558715163Looks like a pretty useful site.>>558715282This is very close to what I had in mind.Thanks anons.
>mfw no super saiyan 3 trad wife virgin girlfriend to financially support me while i work on my game
give gamers what they want
>first you get the woman, then you make the game, then you get the money-eric
>>558714582I don't know what the fuck you want when you say "Proper humanoid base mesh."I look at all these meshes, including ones that are all P*1 inspired garbage and legitimately don't know what the fuck they're doing that I'm not.

>>558716118NIIIIIIIIGGAAAAAAA!!
If you're a solodev you should absolutely not be making a 3d game. Have some common sense
>>558717263If you're a solodev, you absolutely should be making a 3D game because they're easier to buy assets for.
>>558716118this but NTR
>>558717078I know that. I just see the same patterns on my own and am confused why it won't properly twist or turn up.
>>558717462You're not even close. Your fucking deformed creature doesn't even have a shoulder.
>>558716118this is part of my dev process
>>558717340NTA but I like 2D because I can easily make my own assetsIt's generally a quicker process than 3D if you're doing your own assets
I'LL NEVER MAKE A GOOD GAMEI'M SORRY ERIC SAMA
>>558717901The skill floor and barrier to entry is lower, but the quality you need to be commercially competitive is also higher.
>>558717562I see a shoulder. Look at the lines.
>>558717263first person 3D is easy though
>>558717901You need 2 years of experience to make good 2d art.3D you just need to make shit textures and a good shader.
>>558716118
Starting to think I don't need years to make a game, and most fags that spend 7 years, did shit like remake the game like 4 times from scratch and created 30 hours of content.
progress before i go drivingmulti crew selection implemented + pathfinding fix (they used to claim the same node when pathfinding)also just showing camera scaling when battle is over just like in FTL.
>>558718310You don't have a shoulder. Topology is engineering. It's not an opportunity for you to try to be creative. Just copy what works, retard.
the reason you should make a 3D game is because no one is going to buy your 2D slop anymore
>>558719434>if only highguard was done in 3D then it wouldn't flop
>>558718089git gud retardo
>>558719363I do have a shoulder. I highlighted it
the biggest reason i dont make 3d games is because blender is garbage and i cant afford to pay a subscription fee for softwareone day maybe i'll make my own blender with blackjack and hookers and sell it on steam aseprite style
>see next festYeah I don't think I'm gmi. Where are all these talented devs and studios coming from! There is no way I can compete when the entire market is getting cornered like this! Feels like my only choices left are to give up in the next couple of years or teaming up with other anons. *sigh*
>>558721840People are insane
>>558721840>next festI only see low effort AI slop
I’m just miserable
>>558720937That's not what a shoulder looks like. Go the fucking gym.
>>558720484>eceleb faggot and bochi spammer, probably pedo tooI wonder how many of the worst posts in any thread can be attributed to the same 4 posters (fygoon, betz, eceleb tranny, trannadev).>>558722172Find God.
>>558722651Why doesn’t it? I see a pectoral and a deltoid. The character may be wearing clothes, but you really can’t see the pattern?
a hole lot a talk, butt no gayme
>>558723041You don't have a deltoid. It's supposed to bulge out and in. You need an extra loop cut. I don't know how to fix what you have there because it's nonstandard and has weird tris. Just start over. Literally pick a premade mesh like the free blender one, and just cut and extrude your clothes out of it. Why the fuck do you have to make this so difficult for yourself, retard?
>>558723709So it’s less a matter of pattern than it is a matter of how the vertices are arranged.Also if you must know, the tris are more meant to prevent me from having to do a whole new loop and thus wasting polys for minor details.
>>558721840>Where are all these talented devs and studios coming from!AI took over the corporate jobs and that generated an influx of people trying to make it into the game industry.
>>558724082It's a matter of how the edges and loops flow because the topology needs to make sense for the entire range of motion of the joint.
>>558724372So it’s basically about “Drawing” consistent lines?I guess I just think “Everything needs to be connected.”Like, if I drew a more “Accurate” shoulder shape with the knife tool, I feel like it’d look weird Also I feel like a “Bulging” shoulder would make it harder to turn up, no?
bump
>>558724810Why do you insist on making this so hard for yourself? You are not being creative. You are not being original. You are being retarded.Every human body has the same very specific muscles and bones that create very specific shapes and forms. Every human (i.e. anyone who might eventually play your game) has spent their entire life looking at human bodies, making them incredibly good at detecting when something is "off" when a retarded artist depicts incorrect anatomy.

>>558726714Cheers, Eric Cobbee posts are wholesome and have good energy.
i feel like /agdg/'s entire purpose nowadays is just to prove Joey Fygoon right every single thread *sigh*
Can't I just have make the game for me?
>>558728676i like proving him right

>>558725883I'm not trying to be "Creative or original."Is this what you wanted? Because this is what I did based on what you're saying.
>>558729092Not me! I have a postman job!
>>558729601I want you to start from a correct base mesh and build from there.
>>558729723stop trying to give advice to brown people
>>558729601Hey, man, for your sake, stop arguing with him. He's actually giving good advice as far as I can surmise but since you're just starting it's ok to do half measures. It's alright if your model doesn't animate or texture paint perfectly. As long as you make progress all is well.
>>558729723What's incorrect then? You asked for deltoids and a smoother line, I gave you deltoids and a smoother line.
>>558729601Lil bro go download the human base mesh bundle from the blender website and use that. This is a solved problem. Then go do a donut tutorial and gain some basic familiarity with the tools. Then a few years down the line after a few thousand hours of practice try modeling a human from scratch. The human body is not a beginner-friendly modeling project.
>>558729891I'm not arguing with him. I'm just genuinely confused as to what the fuck he means by "Correct.">>558730071Then what's wrong with it?
Buy my game. Buy my game. Buy my game.
everything is goonslop nowadays
>>558730656I can!
>>558730594why is that body so L O N G
>>558730859IDK, it's just some ref I pulled off the net
>>558730859That’s just what bodies look like when you’re taller than 5’9 little buddy.
>>558730594
>>558730594Correct as in anatomically correct. You're modeling a human being, not some strange alien creature.
>>558731047men's heights are in their legs boy... women have longer torsos and shorter legs proportionally. Look it up.This was an intentional decision to make a "gender-neutral" body, I guarantee it. See through that fog.

>>558731228What's alien about it? The lankiness?
I saw Eric Barone at a Stardew concert in Soho today. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and show him my game or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued to look for my seat, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I went to get a snack during intermission I saw him trying to walk backstage with like fifteen chocolate bars in his hands without paying. The black girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Mr. Barone, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any delightful infetterwnce,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
lets discuss ideasany idea?
>>558732428This man is a fucking pseud. All those philosophers are
>>558721840Found a game kinda like the one I've put on hold due to a lack of skill. It's probably going to get 1000-3000 reviews >>558722083I've seen several decent looking games thobeit
>>558732428video game, but it exists as computer software and not just in your imagination
