anyone know of any goood website hosting services?

00:19

like super cheap where i can just drop code in and it'll host

00:20

oh cant github do that

github.io

those svgs are looking good :)

pm me louis

@louis yes github hosts static sites for free

01:00

if its for a teeworlds project i can also maybe host it for u

it is

hi

01:45

how was "kinta" named

01:45

for kintafly

kintaro

do u know what ma p@plsplsplslol

what

nvm

02:08

did he just invent it or smth

Kintaro* & para invented kinta fly. some people call it kinpara too

03:48

finished gun, altho its a little wonky

03:49

will do entities soon.

03:52

i think the more hi res stuff i have the longer it takes ddnet to load, lmao

03:52

oh well, it's only a few more seconds and it's not like i'm always opening and closing ddnet.

05:21

hi-res entities?

cool

@louis pls Tell me how that’s even done? Aren’t all those images of fixed size?

@louis yeah, because they all get loaded into memory during startup

06:41

also the reason why we don't ship with so many skins anymore

Are you recreating them in svg and then render a hilariously big image?

@louis I beg you, don't leave those corners rounded & transparent...

3

06:52

Fill them with solid color and keep those tiles square

3

ye i saw that too

12:43

yes @ChillerDragon files are not fixed size

12:43

they are read by the game thru ratios i assume

12:43

so it can be large as u want as long as it fits the ratio

2

12:57

@Soreu better, right? :D

. . .

❣️

@louis ye but vector images are required to be svg files, so how do you use them ? U have ath ?

export as png @Neben

z

@louis so thats what chillerdragon said, they are not real svg, just high res images

yea

14:36

Keep freeze (f3) or use classic freeze (f4)? (edited)

1

Ah nice

1

Are you actually just creating high res pics?

yes

Bruh

How high do you go with the resolution @louis

i export skins and gameskins at around 983.04 dpi and entities at 300 dpi

14:44

so skins+ gameskins almost 10x

14:44

and entities 3x

14:44

that's just now tho

14:45

at the end, i will probably export all somewhere in the middle (6x or 7x) to maintain continuity

14:45

the files do get big tho, oof

how much more cpu does ur client use when playing with this resolution compared to normal resolution

so if i upload them i will probably export them in each multiplier so people can choose based on how much they need

2

14:47

quite the difference, although it may be the case since i'm using extremely high quality

14:47

10x is a huge jump imo

very little difference?

14:48

like 2x more ram tho

huh

14:48

little difference?

14:48

it looks like a bit to me

14:48

oh cpu

14:48

yeah theres a bigger diff in memory

I mean

14:49

10x qulity

14:49

2x memory

14:49

Seems ok

ye, maybe if when i finish most popular skins and particles and all it might be a bit more, not sure

14:49

we'll see

i think most people wouldnt notice 2x increase in ram usage, but might notice 2x increase in cpu

14:50

so ye its ok

ye agree better waste ram than cpu

15:14

do you see the improve in FullHD without zooming in?

if u sit close to monitor maybe

15:14

hmm

15:14

i'll say

15:16

entities - yes

15:16

gameskins/skins - maybe

15:17

it's very subtle, i'm not sure how the big picture is because i only have a couple skins and a few tiles done

15:17

zooming in is fun tho :D

1

@Ravie Why didn't we think of it?

louis zoomer

1

@Soreu of what? scaling up images bigger than they need to be?

1

@Ravie Ye, and pray for them to look better ingame

they won't

15:19

unless you zooz in a lot but why

We neither scaled them down to go turn into Minecraft :p (edited)

default resolution tilesets (entities too) are getting scaled down anyway

15:20

skins also except for feet

then if I zoom out I'm losing even more? xD

15:20

that's by the way weird af

15:21

1. Create template 2. Load everything separately 3. Scale everything except for one piece

15:21

literally TW logic

do the original svgs for tw graphics exist

yeah skins should have all parts in 1:1

15:22

or at least get scaled even amounts

@louis there aren't original svgs

15:22

most stuff was done in PNG, for 0.7 it was redo by other guys

15:23

and I'd be surprised if anything in 0.7 would have svg saved somewhere

that's kinda why i'm vectorizing some stuff. i kinda just wanna have svgs for most tw graphics for multiple purposes

15:23

i mean you don't have to use it ingame, you could use them to create screenshots, profile pictures, etc

15:23

scaled up entities look a lot more clean as well

I understand that, really, and I'm also glad that someone else is doing it :p

ye

15:24

idk i'm a noob at vectorizing so it's not the exact same but it's pretty similar i think (edited)

I even started turning my entities into vector, but well... I won't say more about that xD

15:25

Thank god there's Ravie who does probably everything in vectors now

15:26

<3

default resolution, only feet could look a bit sharper

ye hes vector art pro

simply cleaner exports already look much better

wait whatd u do to that

15:27

1.5 scale?

15:27

oh its vectorized but default res

I said default res

@Ravie I guess that is fixed in 0.7 or still not? xD

0.7 skins are an abomination

i mean the 1:1 proportions of everything

we don't talk about those (edited)

xd

what

15:28

they look cute

15:28

you can customize them

their proportions are all wrong, feet are shifted, half of the custom parts are simply awful

I'm gonna leave before screenshot of his tee xD

xD

15:28

you mean my shit stained stoner pig?

I have seen it enough times to have nightmares already

what

15:29

send

.......nope

15:29

*temporarily leaves the chat* (edited)

oh i see what u mean about the feet

15:29

whys it look wonky when you jump

also I feel like 0.7 feet are just a bit too big

15:30

my 0.7 dude is cute tho

0.7 is bad

the thing i like about 0.7 skins is customization (edited)

15:31

i wish we had that in 0.6

you get more customization by removing all actual customization

ye but then you have to like make the skin yourself if you want it custom

I guess it's better for noobs who can't make a real skin but wanna feel cool

what

15:35

big idiot

15:35

its fun

15:35

its like sims

15:35

character customization

I'd rather have full control

we could have both maybe

15:36

hm

15:37

maybe not

15:37

i mean its possible but it'd be complicated

why have both when you can just have 0.6

making custom skins is literally so hard

15:40

literally impossible

idc if tees just had default skin

15:45

the fun of the game is so much more than the skins

ok mr i have 50000000 hours in fng

16:00

we should add this feature

16:00

i think most people think its gameplay over everything. thats why so many people play in entities. on kog i think 99% of ppl use it all the time

especially those who suck at designing maps troll

why u record ur mic for that vid

oh oops

@louis we have it already, it's called a dummy, dummy

mic wasnt plugged in so my crappy laptop mic was feeding

16:16

@Ravie but what if it could be a block monkaS

you already made it a block

16:18

._.

@louis ur 0.7 skin looks like a tit lol

16:56

(thats kinda cool)

when are we all gonna play 0.7?

16:57

still didnt try it yet

lmao

when skins look better

when the sound doesnt lag by some reason

epic

@jao no map release this week?

rls

like Brosty ?

iMessage games anyone?
