Ok. And that should be recording as well
and I see people coming in. I am going to unlock this post right now. How do I do that?
Oh, unlock. There we go. Boom.
All right.
The
Oh, actually, yeah,
post is unlocked.
Ok.
It's also recording too
Chromos so it should be all good.
Alrighty,
we'll give some time for people to pop in see
if there's anyone else available on the team popping in
or
questions
rolling in.
Um
All right, just popping in. Did you put the the question somewhere?
Uh It is in the
so if you go to office hours questions, you'll see the top one right there.
Do you want me to do another ping for office hours again?
Uh No,
it's I kinda already did seven minutes ago.
Yeah,
actually a good idea is taking the
office hours link to the post
copy link. Go to the
think here
there
within the uh stage chat. I posted the forum.
Uh
ok,
give it a few more.
Yeah, we'll probably start around uh five after here. So about three minutes.
Feel free to see all your questions in there.
Mhm.
Ru
is on vacation.
They'll be back next week.
As for real, I think he's taking it easy today, so I ain't gonna bug him too much.
I just been in the blender off and on
working on battle night stuff.
I would stream that in here but last time we streamed something, it uh
apparently crashed people out of the uh chat. So
yeah, unfortunately,
let me take a look here. Ok. Good
people are labeling
questions. Thank you.
Ok.
Um
If it one more minute,
yes, we'll keep it up open and
Lynn knew her.
Thank you.
Mm
Yeah, we can go ahead and start now. Uh you're recording right?
Let me double check again. Yes, we are.
Ok. Cool.
Your audio's going through mine is going through good.
So
first question, Tron
de la
asks,
are there any future plans for more official worlds similar to the
cloud home or any experience worlds made directly by the team?
Yes,
as well as a
update to the uh cloud home and tutorial as well over time.
One of the things that
is being worked on currently that
we can't really do much yet of, but it utilizes the uh
oh
this the thing, for example,
data feed of the world. Yep,
it is gonna be an update to the cloud home and tutorial world to allow users to
sessions easier after they go through the tutorial.
That's one of the reasons why Fruits
is working on the uh
data feeds for works
So unless we do want to make more experiences,
not entirely in the same style, but at
times, we do wanna make use that style here and there
say for example, the uh battle nights, it's slightly different style, but
we definitely make war worlds.
Hm.
He also asks, is there any plans to make a lightweight version of the cloud home?
Current one can be pretty heavy for we computers.
I know some users have done it
but it would be cool to see an official one
and let users pick if they want full or light.
Now,
I wonder if,
say that new data feed comes in and if there's a way to
direct the user to multiple different types of cloud homes.
Now, that is actually a good topic there.
If that is possible to change like where they go
from the tutorial world and automatically set that as their
cloud home.
That'll be interesting.
We'll keep that in mind
and
being a lightweight version of it
doesn't seem something
that hard to do as well as I do. Would like to put a reminder of
there has been an optimization pass on the tutorial not tutorial.
Well, both tutorial and
cloud home
uh fixing up the resolutions of the textures and cleaning up some unused assets
that have lingered in there since launch.
But I do know even then still some people have performance issues. But
yeah,
um
was asks
uh on top of Battle night uh what will be consisting of,
um I believe we have a public board now,
uh agent. Would you be able to drop that in the office hours? Chat here?
Conveniently, I have the
get hob open.
So I'm going to reply to that and just
based it right there.
Yep, that is the public board at the moment.
So we, we're still developing the event a bit here.
Uh But the, the,
the premise of it is essentially a team V team
to a single winner uh style e sports competition that also
um works in community made like segments and bits
um into the uh production.
Um
We have a channel as well
um in our general discussions tab
um dedicated to it that's gone over a bit of the, the progress that's been made so far.
Um If you wanna know more definitely. Um check out that channel.
I'm gonna try to find it because
it,
and sometimes that auto closes it off.
Uh huh.
There we go. Let me also provide a link to this
community discussion. No, not, don't lock it.
There we go. Copy link
and it will be right here.
Uh There's a couple of questions
so
was stamping over you.
Uh
uh Sorry.
Um The next question,
uh Are there plans for official tutorials posted to the resonate youtube?
Um I think I saw next jump in if you want to take that one.
Yeah. So there are plans to do that sort of thing.
Um Currently I just have to get together uh with Ru
Jason Ravi
to start those up right now. Ravi
is on vacation, I believe. Uh Ravi's on a boat right now,
but I'm pretty sure afterwards, um, we can start to figuring out that
section makes some really good tutorials for all you guys.
And uh some of the process is being streamlined by
uh chroma with the video templates they're working on.
Yes, sorry to see y'all and
you good.
Um
Next question, will you ever make constant reality
and less sees community post
is
running at less. Now you fix some issues.
This would encourage people with less experience to get feedback and
more people can see how an official content career deconstructs the resonate um
in some environment when
applying it to a small task.
Um
hm
Has anyone else had any thoughts on that? I mean,
yes, but
I think it's more of a question of,
I think we probably prioritize tutorials over that at the moment.
Um Though I know in general we're trying to
expand some more video content at the moment.
Yeah, I'd I'd see for something like that.
If we had a tutorial that relates to that, we can
one ask the creator for permission for that, make sure that
it's good to post something like that and that we can use it as an example.
Like say if it's a topic about like,
I don't know a door animation or a vehicle or a weapon or a avatar or
what not.
That definitely
could be potentially a thing.
That would be my answer
and I didn't really understand the
question. So it's kind of hard for me to
really answer if I'm not really understanding it fully.
Uh It sounds like a series on basically just fixing community items which,
uh,
maybe,
but
in some cases too, that's why
I'm thinking it's better off saying to have those as examples rather than
see what's wrong with someone else's work.
Uh
The next question is an appropriate time
range for the implementation of rigid bodies.
No, there is not.
Uh We're
slowly working towards it, but I cannot give uh any time frame for that at the moment.
Exo
has a good summary that echoes what frooks would say
between now and the heat death of the universe.
Although the only thing I will say other than that
is some of the performance updates that are coming up
will be basically steps towards
implementation of physics.
But it's also a matter matter of uh prioritization.
It's just some of those stuff that we're,
they're doing
for the coding side of things is just
prerequisites for it.
And Chulak
asks, are the assets like guns for battle nights ready to be released
in some form. No, they are not.
They're still being worked on. There's a couple of bugs that need to be
uh
weeded out as well as
the weapons to be implemented into a attribute system or health system that Ravi
was developing,
but they will be available when they're done.
Yes. Um
We also plan on
eventually providing um some documentation on that too
so people can take apart those system a little easier um
and apply it to their own
uh items.
Yes.
Seeker asks for user inventories.
Old items that were migrated over no longer have given size,
have a given size next to them. Would there be a way to trigger an inventory wide
size check, refresh
on one's own items because it's just not feasible to spot on every
item individually to check slash, trigger the size
and see what's taking up the most space.
That sounds more like a technical question to bring
to Prime
Prime's office hours which are at every Tuesday
as well as a
github.
So I do know the
inventory menu
is due for, we work alongside a lot of others too.
But um that'll be nice to
have, see if there's a github
that talks about the,
the
size that objects would take up
if it doesn't exist. I'd probably make one as a key
be to request
or buck fix. In this case.
Uh
Nki Raccoon asks tips for optimizing worlds with objects
that have heavy assets, avatars or pictures thereof, but other stuff too.
So, I mean,
no,
it was lower resolution box players, we can do it.
Uh
Well,
uh
is there of avatars, I mean, less bones typically
the
uh more performing or less dynamic bonus that it is.
Um
But
um
other than that, I don't know,
they would have
more,
you can also um put on uh led s on objects.
So if you have a lower resolution of set object,
you can put that as like an lod and then it can
perform a little bit better. But
that's a kind of a rare use case.
So that's gonna be a more specific built system too.
Uh But if you can make that system, that would be a cool system for someone to,
you put it as like a general tool. I believe it's just a component.
There is a component, although I do believe there is a,
I don't know if there's bugs with it at the moment.
There is
check if there's a get up for it. If not,
please make one
because that'll be something that'll be good for you.
Like let's say you had a very high poly rock,
if it is something that could be low poly at distance,
then that would save a lot of performance.
And when you have like an object that has a very complex geometry, break it down into
different for like the collision,
you make a simple collider and uh
either build it out of primitives like
boxes, cylinders, spheres, pillow colliders, cones
or, or
break it down into convex holes. Basically anything that isn't convex
or concave you can turn into like a convex collider
and simplifying the geometry as well too.
That means less triangles to calculate for that collider.
The better
if like say for example, in games,
they have like uh the the visual mesh
and the collision mesh and then sometimes say like couple other types of like
uh objects within there that would
change depending on like
what kind of settings you have.
Maybe you make like a world setting
within the menu that spawns for everyone and you can change like the
uh
settings for like uh
fidelity of a world
or avatar specifically, I would say
make two copies of your avatar one as like the master one that you use.
And then for any subsequent ones, you
can bake the blend shapes you're not using,
you can also separate the mesh
measures of the stuff that uses shape keys. Say if it's just the
avatar that just has shaped keys on that face for like vines
or face tracking, eye tracking,
you can separate it from the rest of it. That means
uh
it would perform better because every time a shape he changes on a mesh,
it calculates every single triangle on that mesh.
Now, if your avatar has like,
I don't know things that change like the body
proportions or that and you need that on that character
that makes sense.
But
utilizing
all these different features that resonate has
and even within things like blender,
my uh
three disc max, et cetera, ways to optimize avatars is pretty good
and
that's
off of the top of my head. A lot of the optimization stuff. So it's
probably best that we
make more tutorials on that stuff and document it.
I do know on the wiki, there's places to know about that
but figured out play it there. So
PS A as a, as a, as a full tutorial, that'd be a really good idea.
Mhm.
Uh I'm Erin asks, will there will, will we be getting a folder in the rest
of the essentials for Prescott items and other similar things,
things for the recommendation.
That's something we can do.
One of the things we wanna do that is on
our general task list for the uh
uh content team is going through and updating the
uh
the essentials folder to
sort out the
uh assets that we have. It's kind of hard to navigate it at the moment
and we can definitely add that
to like the different things because I know people want
access to all the icons and logos and such,
which would be incredibly useful even for us on the team. So
uh next question, are you all? OK. Out of five stars. This is the least enthusiastic.
It just sounds sad.
Um I
I'm doing fine.
Today's just been busy and I'm like working on things like
I'm actually working on stuff in the background while
doing this. So
I am just a little,
uh
I, I'd, I'd say the same
like, um when we started, I also have Blender Open but
um right now I'm just managing the questions and recording at the same time, but
I don't drink coffee
or drink any caffeine. So,
yeah, I mean, until you start out good sunny day, I had a,
a hammock in the backyard which I just like had
green tea and hung out with for a bit.
Um
Yeah, I don't know.
And Arnold Palmer sounds good right now.
That does sound good.
So exos ask me question for next y green.
Um
It's the color that stands out.
Yeah,
that's about it.
Let's see here.
Scrolling down, catching up here. Uh
We got a lot more questions this time. This is good
on the led answer.
No
response. Is there a way to generate lower led levels and resonate itself?
Not yet
though fruits wants to make
a
dynamic mesh decimation thing.
It's just
not a priority at the moment. So that'd be really cool.
I think the way that pros
was describing it,
he really wants it to be a all around system to where you make the world and
then you hit a singular button and it just does the optimizations that you need for it
with how you set it up uh for the percentage of that.
So if you want a world that was utilizing those lower generated LO DS,
you just click a button and everything would be set to that lower lod from a distance.
I'd like to add to that 22 things. One is
books or one of the um
prerequisites for something like a
automated mesh decimation is a way to triangulate models.
I know fruits wants to,
I believe on their board of like fun,
like get bored of fun things. They like to do
one of am
mess triangulation.
And what that would mean is like,
say you make a shape and it would make it out of triangles.
And that would make things like uh 3D text or SVG
files incredibly easy to import into here and make work.
And
if I recall that was one thing that could be a prerequisite for that too.
But um another thing I wanna bring up to in regards of like optimizations that
just came to my head is calling
even though we don't have occlusion culling. Technically resonate uses
what is called frustum culling, which is your viewpoint
and anything you look behind you
or that that is behind where you're looking is not rendered
and
everything. Of course, when it is in front of you, it is rendered
ways to kind of cull things a bit more
dynamically than that at the moment
is creating like volumes, whether it be tracking
users or players via like mathematics like hey, they're in this
box or sphere volume or using much easier way of doing it is via colliders,
you
you can set up like a whole array of different
areas or culling zones, loading zones.
Other games do this too back in the day where, and even now
where you walk into an area, it loads that part of the mesh
that you,
let's see
that you would see in that area
as well as like, say it blends two areas together. So if you're in like
between two areas,
it would only show those areas as well as hide everything
else except for the uh stuff that the player is in.
That's one way to kind of make manual culling in a world.
That'll be a good tutorial topic. I believe there are a couple tutorials out there
already that cover it.
But yeah,
and China
is also asking, is there any way to import an object from blender with a
custom different mesh as a collider?
Yes, you can do this. You'd probably just have that as the regular mesh collider.
Um
But a lot of the times when you're importing out objects, even a
converting it over to a convex hull collider is good enough.
Unless it's a building,
then you wouldn't be able to enter inside of that convex collider.
So
just,
yeah,
but you can import it as a mesh collider and it could
be pretty simple to add to that when you import a model.
And by default, it would,
well,
you can either
like use the normal like settings for money import but um,
actually, you know what I'm gonna, I have resonate up, I'm gonna track and drop
a
FBX here. But if I recall there is
a
uh
thing where you can change if you want collisions or not on a model,
but usually I keep collision on collision on it.
And, but if, when you have the,
the component for
colliders, it'll start out as a mesh collider
and you can like swap it out to
say convex ho if it's like a convex one or change the
settings on each individual collider to be either static or non collision at
that point. If you don't want collision at all, I just remove it
but say if you want
it currently right now though,
it just with the advanced settings where if I go into advanced settings right now,
I can't like import it as a convex collider.
No, not like uh to import it without colliders at all
or remove colliders and then you would add it
after the fact by going into the inspector.
That's
what I was getting at. So sorry.
Um
Yeah,
so this one is, I guess kind of direct me since I do media stuff here.
Uh where it's saying with tiktok content,
if I happen to make more on and showcase the resonate platform and media outlet,
contacts me wanting some sort of interview with, resonate, what should I do?
Um
I'm pretty sure that information can be
redirected to us. Um
if they're wanting, if they're meaning that they want to interview you, then
you're fine on doing whatever you need to do now.
But if they want to interview us, you can just get
in contact with any of the team members. And
yeah,
I the the best way.
So like, yeah, you don't have to,
you don't have to send it over to us. Um, if that's just not needed, but like if you
want us to be part of that,
then the best way to get our eyes on it like collectively is seriously just the email
uh
on the website
right now.
Um
And that would just we we do look at those just
like constantly throughout the day and go through every email.
So
um
yeah, it it would just be the best way.
Yes,
intact. There we go. Um
Actually does the contact us thing go to our business email.
Yes.
OK. So I can just
that actually makes it easier because it gives you like a template.
So
uh
they will paste the link to that
as a reply. Boom.
And I just realized X
beat me to it.
I need to scroll down more.
Yeah. Aaron's also asking uh who would be responsible for redoing the
emos available in this discord.
We got the
camera frustum and the black square but not even a mentor badge.
I
have,
oh I have the mentor badge now.
OK. Cool.
Um But yeah, uh a lot of our graphics and a lot of those that you're seeing,
those are uh made up by chroma.
So,
yeah.
Well, she does a great job with that.
Can we get a microwave reveal from the team here
as in,
I am not looking, but is that just like a picture of our microwave?
I'm not sure. Maybe it's like I've seen stuff like this.
People like spinning in a microwave
and
the door being open. I, I have no idea. I,
I really don't know how to answer that.
Um
From what I think it would take
or multiple options. What that could be.
No.
Oh, this is continued a bit from Prime's office hours yesterday.
Oh, the she
is. Ok. Yeah, that sounds about right.
Ok.
Did it, did prime stream
his office hours yesterday?
Is that what happened? They stream at you guys?
Yeah. What's it happened?
Oh, that is correct and very nice.
Ok. So our next question is here from Sky Wind.
Uh What can you tell us about battle nights? What is the game about
murder
and killing each other? Were my amusement.
Gladiator style.
All overall.
What?
Um I think there was a
link to the, the latest word on that on
github.
I don't know if the discussion was also, I'm sorry, I'm trying to add the,
the freaking
where did the icons go or the emojis.
But yeah, there, there should be an answer to that
where they're up in the chat, I think.
Yes, there will be lots of explosions to the sky.
Well, that was so far. Our last question list.
If anybody has any more questions, don't be afraid to ask them
any suggestions for emojis too.
Apparently we have 100 86 slots available. So,
no, I hadn't suggest.
Um,
right now I'm just rendering stuff in the background.
The default avatar emoji.
What is the default
avatar about?
Gosh, I was muted. Sorry.
Um
Oh, the uh person probably made a
Yeah, I can
actually, I think we have one somewhere for
the car.
They also want glu
holding a knife. Um
I
can
do
that.
Yeah,
on
the default avatar holding a knife.
Uh
I'm doing the mentor badge first and then I'll do a blippy
holding a knife.
Lovely.
You
guys
should be
dream work.
Yeah. Can make a evil
avatar emoji.
I
frooks making faces. Well, thats up the frogs.
I don't think frooks would want his IRL face.
Um
Yeah, I'm not gonna, we're not gonna do that one.
Yeah,
that's probably what, you know,
as avatar maybe
we couldn't even have like an icon for like, I know that we have icons for M MC I think.
Or is that off the other ones?
I
know that
other
ones.
Yeah.
You have one for ball
nights.
That'd be kind of cute.
Yeah, we could do that eventually here.
Um That one's a little, I don't have a thing made for it. Already.
Adding a knife to gloop is easy enough.
Uh
I should make like the uh
gloopy light bulb that I rendered as like a cutout image.
You already added the mentor one.
Yeah, it's
like
uh posted it.
I mean,
considering that you already have the mentor one
might as well add moderation as well,
right?
How do we not have that? All right.
Uh Yeah, give me a
sec
here. I need a good funny knife.
All right. Google. What you got can be creative commons.
Oh my gosh,
bye.
No, I don't think we're gonna put the knife on us.
Be happy that you already got the knife on the gloopy.
Yeah.
Stop complaining.
Yeah,
stop complaining.
Yeah.
Remember no mentors and new moderator will kill will
kill you but resonate will specifically your PC.
Hey Google, when I ask for creative commons,
I don't want a giant list of things that say liable
licenses.
I just want free to download easy shit.
God.
Yeah, specifically
be.
There's um
uh so, uh dragon
asks, can we get a unity crash screen sticker?
No.
Yeah, I
don't know about that one.
If you do get crashes,
please send your logs and send it over on the gab
so that we can fix whatever might be giving you crashes.
We would rather have no crashes whatsoever to uh
a
really
you already, you already post your crash pictures enough in discussion channel.
I'm not gonna give you more power.
I realized something about the unity crash screen sticker
when we get sauce
that will be relevant.
Oh, no,
unless if we still technically use the video uh player. But I don't think so. I
think by then would be using something else.
Unless if well fruits wants to work on the
like a converter
for unity scenes to resonate.
That is a good hub.
Can we get stickers of the tool? Thumbnails? I can get those.
Should we also make those uh
emails?
What like animated like moving around?
Uh
Well, just emails in general like
like chroma said we got like a crap load of slots
having the uh
Yeah. Yeah.
Even just the static ones,
I will be constantly set on the de tip.
Mhm
Please do send in your questions too. Don't forget
uh Nookie asks.
This is a question for you. Is the name of the mentor badge. Emoji a mistake.
Oh color 1 to 8.
Mentor. No, that's just what it's called.
Yep, that's his name.
Yeah.
Although I think we can rename
the uh
a
emojis. At least in here
you could,
I
mean, to be honest with you, every single last one of the miss color 128.
So I mean like,
yeah,
I don't think
wants to,
I'm not gonna do it. Sorry. This bit line going so far.
Yeah. And it's not gonna make more work for me that I
don't have time for.
Yeah, they are. They're already putting a knife on gloopy for you guys.
What more do you want for them? Seriously.
Hm.
But please uh more of other questions. You guys would be lovely.
These homemade biscuits are really good.
Damn,
you should have thought of that before. Uh Dr
the six hats. Why six when it could be seven?
I'm not,
I'm not go
because there's only like six spots on.
That's the point
when the seventh when you gonna be right in the middle.
How the fuck does
gopi grab a knife? Hold on.
If only we still had a qu uh only we start a quotes channel. Um
He g loops it. Yeah, they just like they absorb the handle
on one.
OK? We, we got a
push from nookie again. Let me oh Thank you for marking it.
Can we do something to get more standardized names for slots and variables?
I
find myself working in detail level systems and other things
be useful if we were all using the same names
that
I mean if I recall there is OK, I'm gonna go to the wiki real quick.
Uh Rest of night wiki.
Uh the,
the the system a page. Yes.
You
know
there is a page
community naming standards.
Ah I knew there was something about this.
This is like the standards
closest thing
you could do to contribute for something like this
within the
wiki.
Like for example, on my avatar,
I have like body markings that kind of glow with different colors and such.
There's like cloud variables that people use
for their music visualizers and it connects that
I even connect, connected it to like a car and such and it works
really good.
We could expect to have typical emojis,
but we can use better nights to get a nice gloopy.
Oh boy.
Don't make me get the biblically accurate gloopy
the evening, Joe
group
with a knife.
You saying there's no question of being asked to
talk about what you're all working on right now.
Uh I just finished group with a knife.
I'm working on it is what it is models for battle nights at the moment,
mainly like a staging platform for
contestants to like set up their stuff, pregame,
kind of like a pregame lobby
and different track pieces for,
well, the racing portions of it
as well as after that, I'll
have to figure out how to
turn the main floor of the stadium to a
kind of twisted middle
e battleground for the combat vehicle combat system.
I am watching through the final honorable mentions for M MC,
uh youtube video and that should be posted sometime tomorrow.
So that's what I'm doing just looking through the edit.
Yeah, but that
gets posted out
Y XL.
Why
I
feel like that lifeguard
shouldn't be even anywhere in the green with that. Um
Hi,
we, we have moderation now too.
Nice.
Thank you, Karma.
Thank you for the
nice.
Yeah, I'm gonna do a moderation with the knife. Next. Hold on.
Oh, no,
I don't know.
I
feel
most controversial one.
Let's see.
I'm back.
Meanwhile.
Message from beer.
Um, chroma, why does the moderation badge have a knife on him?
Um, there's gonna be options.
What?
Now, here's the thing
and then there's like, just,
just posted that gift
and then right where,
where he said there will be options and all the options are nice.
That's why it just,
hm.
That gift is too perfectly timed with your voice. Uh There problem.
Good.
Hm.
Can we just have a redo of that gift?
Just said uh quote with chroma just there will be many options.
Also the nearest
it's too late. It already has happened.
Yeah,
we got moderation with the knife now.
It's because the prime reference, what if,
what if Gloopy was a
evangel boss? And I'm like, yo, I should do that.
That's awful.
Maybe, maybe, maybe this is what we should do for battle nights
like Gloopy in its final form.
I should make that a cut out in a uh
hey,
a good defense is a good offense, I guess.
Sorry, mentors. You ain't getting knives.
That is where I draw the line.
Anomaly 5005.
0, I gotta see this. This is on our wiki somewhere, isn't it?
Isn't there like the anti mentor thing?
The, the red badge?
Yeah,
there is an anti mentor.
Ok.
You
got
on the
list.
An official one,
an official anti
mentor.
My goodness.
Sorry, bad enough.
Yeah,
the anti mentor definitely would be using a shotgun
without a doubt.
Yeah.
Oh, I see.
What is the proper cut FF 7676. Ok.
I just like how we now have like an SCP level, like
pages on our wiki.
You just gotta really dig for them.
They're all just satire pages. But
I've seen two variants of that. Let's see if there's any questions though.
Please keep them going. We have about uh
13 minutes.
This is quite chaotic at times too.
Favorite types of cheese, um
pepper jack,
pepper Jack will order.
I'm trying to remember the other one but
that'd be my number one. Go to
um favorite cheese
Colby
or Pepper Jack.
Good choice
comma
um
No comment.
Alright.
There's the answers.
If I recall, I've seen like two other
like variants of
that icon, the anti mentor badge,
that one and like
one with like a fist
as like the bold part
or at least something very similar to what Nki has made. But
any and all ques uh content related questions and even
general platform questions we can try to answer.
Let's
get down to the bottom. There we go.
Let me get
a
screenshot of the
pregame lobby platform.
I'm working on.
Yeah, it is pretty chaotic.
One thing that's
different in regards to the uh aesthetic compared to the cloud home tutorial is
the addition of like Tron
E
like glowing lines to the
style. So that's one thing I'm gonna experiment with
anti office hours.
No,
I mean, we're all just grumblings on the inside, aren't we?
There? You all have now the legally distinct uh evil mentor
uh badge.
I'm curious of what it looks like.
This is like, bro.
Um Do you have any questions for us?
I don't know.
Do you have any,
have any questions
for our community?
Why are you here?
This isn't the beginning of red versus blue.
Yeah. Go wild.
I don't expect them on a breast or anything else anytime soon.
It's definitely something
I
says because I like being able to hand people
things instead of sending them a gun link URL.
That also saying, hey, do you wanna check out my game?
Should check out my game and,
and play it.
Click on this link.
Glad you guys are actually spawning that it was mostly rhetorical but
it
uh ST
yeah, a lot of people here.
He's also saying it and more seriously because I love
you guys and you're here every week answering questions.
Uh
How
wholesome
voice mode emotes?
Oh That'll definitely be good to add.
I too indeed. Drink hot
leaf juice said it's delicious. I only do that when I'm sick. Although
earlier I was saying a
Arnold Palmer sounds pretty good right now.
Still does
AO is asking for the knife.
Don't, don't, don't give the,
not giving the knife. You can find the knife,
medical reasons for medical reasons. It probably shouldn't.
I'm sorry.
But why does people, why do people think that that's gonna be a thing? Like, hm,
I need this knife for medical reasons. Highlander has a good answer to that. Yeah,
you need a doctor's note.
Watch
X so quickly make a fake doctor's note
and to, uh, answer farc's question either or
I like either
should, should we feature the rubber room?
No,
no, we're not featured during the rubber room.
No, no,
I don't trust any of you fucks.
I'll be honest,
ain't gonna happen.
Terry is like I was gonna ask that.
I mean, I'm,
I'm just saying if I made
a featured video on that,
I would go crazy.
That's all I'm saying.
It hurts
dressed like with the
ol article.
I mean, it is a published world. So I'll give it that.
I was tempted,
I was very tempted to feature it,
starters, content,
institution drinks and containers.
I know several people have made similar systems before
but
ok,
find your own knife.
Mhm
Well, we got five minutes left. Everyone.
Ye
hippie.
We're so enthusiastic, right?
All
I do, I do enjoy this now and again, but today has just been busy.
Yeah.
Oh Highlander Wolf has a question.
A good one at that. Could the wiki be made into an endgame book?
Actually, I believe someone already is doing that
because there is PDF support someone is, I recall turning the wiki pages into PDF S
and turning it into like
either in an automatic way or manual way. I don't remember what. But
if somebody knows
that
idea who is making that or where to find that,
that'd be good to boast it in here or
link, link uh them to that because
that would be really cool.
We do also plan on making a new
tab on the
dashboard, which is gonna be a help tab.
That is something that even Rao
is gonna be helping out designing out the
uh layouts and stuff with chroma
for those
NIE
answered. Thank you.
OK.
I think I was thinking of another type that was using PDF S but
I think I was thinking of a thing that shows a web page as a PDF.
That might be the thing that I got confused with.
Mm
mhm
We have another question here from Tara saying
uh a LR technical question then could there be
made a setting in which you can be in the local room for a while longer?
So the map loads properly before you enter a map,
seeing the unload textures gives up a bit of the creeps
at this current state, not right now,
but well,
there is a way
that you can do something like that. I actually have made a system before
where you can preload the world.
Um So technically you could make an object or item that before you go into the world,
it just pre loads it and then you enter inside of it immediately.
You can technically do that.
Um I made a portal to where when you walk through the portal,
it would preload the world and then you'd be in
this environment that was still technically in the same world.
And then when you walk through a secondary portal in that loading environment,
then you'd be immediately teleported inside there.
So,
is it possible? Yes. Is it something by default? No,
but you can make it
if you want Tara, uh you can dissect the one that I have on my avatar
that's in world aside me as next one
and you can
have a copy of it.
And yeah, it's uh what Leo said, have a look at the open world PF mode. Yeah,
that's probably the note that's being used,
which in all honesty, I really should uh make something
that's uh like that just by default there.
You don't have to be in the inside environment just
whenever you want to open up a world instead of you just tell 42 it just preload you,
which
to be honest with you, I,
I think that would even be a pretty easy
setting that you could have under the general settings.
Like that would be an interesting thing to recommend on github be like, hey,
why don't we just have this to where before you load into a world you
just state in the world that you're at until the other one is fully loaded.
That might actually be a really good uh feature request.
Leo has a uh
wiki article to check out too. It's
the proto
flux
that deals with opening a world
that
definitely can help with something like that.
OK. So we'll answer off this uh last question
uh Before we close out here,
uh protype is saying, is there an easy way to organize your inventory
at the moment?
Not at the moment.
There is plans to rework the inventory system entirely like menu
to where you can rename folders, move things around easier as well as
say, put shortcuts to those specific items or folders within
individual facets,
say you put it on the facet anchors that are like on your arms and such
or
view or even when we have facets
within the world,
probably
have something where you can like spot items from
an object that would be pretty
kind of like clouds spawning.
Actually that is that, that is cloud spawning, that's a whole other
um feature. But
yeah, it's, it's planned to make it easier.
Yes, I believe that we have come to an end. Now,
uh
You
have some
question about reflection proves
wait until they
type in your last questions.
Now, we're doing a cut off until these people are done typing.
So whoever's already typing, finish typing,
I'm going to uh
make a
uh
Emmo or gift or something
then saying who will be hosting the battle nights when it's done.
Um It's relatively just gonna be the team
that's hosting it.
We will also be streaming it too.
There we go.
Yeah.
Um If I can still ask,
is there a way to add objects that will be like in a different spot?
I've got this sign in the world. That's right.
You change here
thing.
Uh I've got this sign in the world that is right next to the reflective surface.
But the prob but the probe puts it on the floor because of the angles
you have an answer to that ages.
Give me a sec.
OK. So when you bake a reflection probe, it creates a
uh
cube map and that cube map doesn't change unless if you have it set to real time.
So you can put the reflection probe where you want to bake it
and then you can move it where you want it to be.
So
I hope that helps as an answer
because it's a static image. So you can like like a camera, you bake it
and then you can
do whatever the hell you want with the uh baked image. So
that could help.
Mhm
Let's see here.
So I don't
remember
right now,
I'd have to,
I'd probably put it in the uh
the questions
and help for them
within a discord.
All right.
Well,
I guess now
we'll wrap things up.
Thank goodness,
you gotta say it like that girl.
My goodness.
Ok. Hi everyone.
Thank you y'all pretending his office hours.
Oh,
nice.
Oh.
