By which I mean for example a texture, each sprite would grab whatever value is under it on the texture. Then you just render the desired wind/whatever motions onto that texture and everything will animate along with it.

I just don't get it. My next experiment is to make world chunks with cached tile sprites, and I can't do it. Why have I never heard of anyone struggling so much even though this seems like an impenetrable wall to me? The problem is once again sorting the sprites.

Take for instance Starbound: metal is always on top of leaves, which are always on top of crystals, which are always on top of dirt. Each of these overflows their own tile boundary and go on top of the adjacent tiles, from all sides. This means that they NEED some kind of layering mechanism, and you can't localize it per-chunk, it has to work across all tiles on all visible chunks which also means it has to be re-done when new chunks load and old ones unload.

How do you build the buffers to draw this? There can be something like 20k tiles on the visible chunks, not counting the background layer. You can't sort and re-build that kind of sprite instance buffer in real-time, which means you also can't walk around the world without frame drops, nor modify a lot of blocks rapidly, nor move the camera between 2 locations instantly.

In this case you could just abuse the depth buffer, but Starbound has entire biomes filled with semi-transparent tiles, you can't layer those through the depth buffer. I also want the ability to use different shaders for tiles, similar to how you can use "negative paint" in Terraria.

Maybe you can pre-gro

>>2259
You're overthinking it. Just draw them from back to front order per chunk and have the boundary to load new chunks in be offscreen and no-one will ever see it correcting boundary overlaps after a chunk is loaded.

>>2262
If you draw one chunk and then another chunk, the edge between the chunks will be wrong. You have to mix and sort the sprites from both chunks together.

I just got an idea that might work: what if you crop the overlapping part of the tile and draw it separately? That would allow you to pre-generate all the sprites for a chunk and just draw it by itself, which is the ideal scenario because all the chunks can be immediately ready to be drawn so you can move the camera anywhere in the world with 0 cost.

>>2263
This is unironically a good idea. Old RPGs would do something similar to this with the edge sprites.

Maybe the animations from wikipedia?

Newer doesn't always mean better. There's people who still make amazing stuff with just C or "C-like C++" (AKA C with only a select few C++ features) because the fundamentals of programming haven't really changed in decades, it's much more important to nail that part than some C++ features.

>>2108
I haven't read the books but I would avoid the Java ones because that's a pretty abandoned language these days and was always a mistake in a lot of ways. It may be useful if you want to get a job maintaining some old ass crapware that was built on Java though.

Visual Basic stuff will probably get you locked into Microsoft's ecosystem, which is extra bad since Microsoft has been heading straight into the trash in recent years. Some of that stuff is probably obsolete too since Microsoft keeps updating their shit.

>>2109
>Newer doesn't always mean better.
No, but C++11 got some new features to the point it might be considered as a different language (lambdas, vararg templates, range-based for, constexpr functions, etc. Concepts can also be useful if you do templates, but they're a newer additions and assumes you're not stupid. Of course still no static reflection, so you'll be forced to roll your own for anything but the most trivial programs, but that's just how C++ evolves, useful features have the lowest priority)
>fundamentals of programming haven't really changed in decades
Yeah, but these books look more like teach language X instead of teach programming fundamentals.
>I would avoid the Java ones because that's a pretty abandoned language
Thank you for contradicting yourself in one post.

>>2113
I'm not against Java because "it won't get new features", I'm against it because there's no future for it. There will be less and less jobs for it, less of a community and discussion and help, and the virtual machine that runs Java will probably have less support in the future, who knows if it runs on future consoles or phones.

>>2114

I wouldn't say it so clearly. Sure, not as popular as it used to be, but lot of enterprise garbage are still written in java. Visual Basic is much worse in this regard (not that I'd miss any of them, both languages are an abomination).

I'm thinking about getting back into SNES games again. I used to play a lot of them on my laptop in high school but kind of stopped over time. Last thing I played was Chrono Trigger. If anyone has any obscure SNES RPGs worth suggesting I'm all ears :)

just got done playing through every mass effect game, below are my thoughts on 3 as it is still fresh in mind

the good:
i greatly enjoyed the combat and feel that it is the best of the series its fluid and faster paced, way, way more weapons, no arbitrary restrictions on what you can or cannot use, the powers are very fleshed out and fun to use regardless of class
the consolidated paragon/renegade morality system is how it should have been done from the beginning giving greater opportunity for roleplay and actual decsion instead of blindly following the pre-determined paths
killing 300,000 batarians is made canon, the objectively best part of mass effect 3

the bad:
cerberus fighting against you from day one is so out of character it feels like the writers at bioware hated that anyone even remotely agreed or liked them and were like 'NOOOOOOOOOOO! YOU CANT LIKE CERBERUS THEY'RE EBIL SPACE NYATZEEES!' despite the fact cerberus hasn't done anything any other race's black ops hasn't ro wouldn't given the opertunity, looking at you STG
the squadmates are lifeless and uninteresting, further more there is literally no reason to speak to any of them, unfortunately even garrus is significantly less cool than in previous games, for a game series that is at bare minimum 50% character focused tanks the experience beyond words
ironically the game with the best version of the morality system is the one least equipped to exploit with it, every dialogue option is paragon or renegade, upper right or lower right, no neutral options at all, maybe its because the writers were fed up with people only really going for paragon options that they threw up their hands and said 'why even fucking bother?'
the side fetch quests are me2's scanning for upgrade materials but somehow even less engaging and more annoying
legion is killed off for no reason
no exploration of the effects of indoctrination on a galactic war, given that any exposure to reaper tech leads to indoctrination

>blew the fuck up at Peashy 
Honestly, I did not even consider the Ultra dimension version, this is likely where the difference in opinion stems from. V is not often on my mind since I am not a fan of how they were characterised. That said, the first Blanc was pretty open about her insecurities, at least when someone pointed them out though those were more related to her not fitting the image of a goddess rather than her chest specifically.
>impression that you're into someone else.
I guess? I think it would be pretty obvious but I cannot say I understand the mind of someone who would get this idea despite evidence against it to be honest. That said so long as she does not let it fester and actually talks to me about it if/when she gets such thoughts it would not be a serious issue.
>processors
Fair, I was only thinking of the standard ones. For what it is worth even with the difference in attitude these days I do not think the unlockables will get hit. Then again they could just not include any extra processor units, pretty sure that has been the case since VII.
>cover censorship
The cover censorship has always confused me because of what is in the games and going off of 2010, probably on the back of the box as well. We got a naked Neptune on the back and within the first few minutes of the first game yet NISA decided to use the covered chest image from the back of the JP box. A bit of cleavage was visible on other covers at the time so I really do not get that decision.
>loli fanservice
This is a pretty likely explanation unfortunately, we know how much they like to stick to their set concepts. Whatever the reason I will be disappointed though, not many people would complain if Blanc got some ecchi stuff too.
The idol thing was weird, yeah. Even if they wanted to give the twins some screen time there was nothing stopping them from being a trio.
>why I kinda resent Rom and Ram
I would not go that far but I do get it. This is really an issue with the writers rather than them inherently being a detriment to Blanc so my chagrin is entirely directed at whoever Compile Heart & Idea Factory have writing and their apparent inability to do anything besides duo with them. I wonder how much YuiKaori being a duo had to do with that.

Yeah, I don't think Compile Heart is going to try porting any more of their Vita backlog to Switch after the Re;Births, Tokyo Clanpool and Hyperdevotion all got fucked out of western releases and Hyperdevotion bombed in Japan (barely 1.5k copies sold per Famitsu). It kills me because I was practically begging for Blanc's game on her console instead of fucking N*ire's. But Compa can't help but shill Soyny and her favorite pet. Honestly, as I raged about when it was first announced, Hyperdevotion's Switch port was a very tone-deaf move from Compile Heart in many ways.
As for TGS, I wouldn't be so sure. I don't think Idea Factory even has a setup at the venue. Which is strange because Inti Creates and Eastasiasoft both do.

I'll laugh if they announce Idol PP.

Either way it technically works for me since it's the only game I lack a physical of.

any tips for cutting your own hair? what is your hairstyle like?

my dad always cut my hair when I was a kid. he always cut it berry short though, like a buzzcut, and I never liked it that way.
I have been to the barber only a handful of times in my life.

I haven't been to the barber (or my dad) for over a year now. Last time I went was before a job interview and the barber didn't do berry much tbh, the hair was bretty long already and I didn't want him to cut it all away.

It's about 20cm long now and I tie it back (ponytail?). I kinda look like some homeless guy though when it's not tied.
I think I will just keep it like that for some time but am looking for some inspiration.

>>15220
>any tips for cutting your own hair? what is your hairstyle like?
I don't have any tips for cutting longer hairstyles.  I buzz my hair down to nothing for convenience with drying, never needing fixed, and playing nice with hats.  My only useful suggestion is going to be you need to plan where the trimmed hair will fall and how you can clean it up.  I like to lay down torn open grocery bags to catch catch as much falling hair as possible.

In a way it is and in a way not. The beach many decades ago use to be the local town's trash heap. Eberrything was dumped there but gradually they put a stop to it and removed eberrything that didn't decay normally.
Except the glass. All the wave and sand action turned the broken shards of glass into pebbles. So there was to real reason to clean it up. After all glass is just amorphous SiO2. Eventually it's just going to turn back into sand. Berry glittery multicolored sand.

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rp6_bfZ4nuE]
its like what i already said and its really obvious when using mmx [8:00], these old programs that were heavily optimized with these now legacy instructions usually run like garbage on modern cpus where the focus on optimizing is using newer extensions instead of these old obsolete ones that really should just be removed but hey its backwards compatible.. which for intel just means it 'can' run old program, if it runs like shit thats your fault for using out dated legacy stuff

thats basically the attitude for a lot of things

If this is really the case, then why do game constantly show errors with trying to run "16 bit" software? I've even had this fun with trying to install some Windows 98 games where they outright refuse to work on my PC running W7 64 bit.

>>5086
thats an os problem, im just talking about hardware, you can still run a 16bit os like dos on a modern cpu and run 16bit programs no problem, when you start using a modern os then yeah its up to how compatible the os is with your program, thats like running a linux program on windows, you either use emulation or boot linux, its not a hardware issue

>>5088
>thats an os problem
Okay, that I get

Here's another question that I have, this is in regards to something like MMX. Now I get the fact that we have "newer processes" that are suppose to be "faster" and more efficient in regards to processing some data, but are these actually faster?

What I mean is something similar that I see with the modern ray-tracing meme. One of the biggest reasons people are pushing for the tech is that it would supposedly lessen the load on developers to make things like proper reflections and lighting in games (Among other things). However the trade-off for using such tech is that it requires far more power than games that came before, prior games which did have elements like proper lighting and reflections (Even if superficially). Is that what is going on here? Are the replacements for processes like MMX actually proven to be faster in application and usage, or are they only theoretically faster and made to seem like the "Better" option because of Intel's shenanigans.

>>5089
mostly yes, its not really comparable to ray tracing, thats always going to be the slowest way to render
with cpus if you had to do something tedious like add 1 to 1000 32bit pixels then with mmx, which has 128bit registers, you can do 4 pixels at a time so its 4x faster than using 64bit registers, but with avx you have 256bit registers so you can 8 at a time, with avx512 you have 512bit registers so you can do 16x pixels at once, so obviously youd think more is better, since obviously if you can do more data then its faster but it gets complicated because a cpu is still a physical machine so passing electricity on gigantic 512bit registers is going to create way more heat than registers that are 1/4 its size, so while you can do more data you actually still slow the cpu down since it will thermal throttle and it does that preemptively because its guaranteed to go volcano mode when using those instructions, the instance you use a single 256bit or 512bit register the cpu immediately downclocks, i think the penalty is 20% 50% respectively but thats a small price to pay when you can process 8x-16x the amount of data, however if the programmer is stupid and only does a single avx instruction and isnt really using these for bulk data processing then you trigger the downclock penalty and effectively slowed the cpu down for nothing, and your normal instructions are running at 1/4 the speed now for a while, so nor
