In that case you either the license of the stuff that you depend on has to account for that, or you need to be able to plug something different there.

For 99% of single player games you could just do that, you've already released those binaries. I can see a problem where you need to release some additional binaries that normally aren't shipped (like server binary) and this relies on some other stuff that you don't control.

Regarding licenses for stuff like Havok. How an EOL build is different from a standard build in this regard? Stuff like Speedtree doesn't matter, these are just DCCs to make content.

I can't get used to The Witcher in english. Don't get me wrong, it sounds fine, but as a Pole, I'm used to the OG version.

At this point I don't know which soulless piece of shit corp I'd like to Johnny Silverhand first.

I do 6-8 for multi joint, and for single joint like this 8-10. That's the optimal amount based on data I've seen. Easier to the progress too. But I'm not a trainer, so 🤷♂️

Why do more though?

Jus to summarize - I know it's not retroactive, I'm only talking about future games. The initiative accepts accepts the fact that current games might die. That's a bitter pill, but one that you have to swallow if you wanna be fair with devs and publishers.

And that's going to be a fraction of games too. 95% of games are ones you buy, so they can't change the term in EULA. Now they wouldn't be able to just kill them by pulling the plug from the auth server that's required to play a single player campaign

Publishers being obligated to specify a end of renting period would be a win itself. How do you estimate that? How would people react if they see "expires in 2 years" on a box when buying a game? That's not a good look. Maybe these things by itself would make a reasonable EOL build a cheaper option

You can't do the EULA thing in the UE, there are laws already protect consumers from unfair terms in contracts. Also, the stop killing games directive itself would supersede EULAs.

The fact that snapping doesn't work in this case makes sense, really, as the projected texel-size can change from frame to frame as the camera moves. It also explains why TAA helps mitigate this. Sorry for taking so long, I myself would like to have more time for this :D

@nicebyte.bsky.social I'm sad to report that snapping doesn't work, but overall it's not too bad as you can see. The swimming starts once the camera starts moving rather slow, but then TAA can clean this up. If you don't want TAA, then maybe you can have "TAA" on the cascade splits themselves

I've recently started coding it and there's definitely swimming, but I don't feel like it can't be fixed by proper filtering and snapping. I'll share my findings once I get back to it, but this can be tricky as currently I'm catching up with all HL games before playing Alyx on VR :P

Cool thing you can also do if you have HiZ is extend the shader to also calculate the min/max (whatever you Z setup is) and then tightly fit the cascade frustums based on min and max depth for greater precision.

The most important thing about swimming in a freezing lake is to tell everyone that you did it

You have to fight for them, not with them and they need to feel it. That's especially true for politicians.

You're right that liberals are responsible for tone policing, but I feel like the left has fallen for it, fallen into thinking they have an ally. On the other hand, the only way to power in democracy is through the people and their votes so some tone policing is needed, they can't feel attacked

Also, there's still a lot of hard problems to solve, more than ever after decades of neoliberalism and technofeudalism. So the left better get to work, the romance with centrist was not worth it, cut it. That was more like a toxic relationship.

Historically, it's the left that was the driving force behind things we consider civilized now - labour laws, women rights, democracy, public healthcare (sorry US). And it has to continue to do that, although now that labour laws are normal, it's the left's job to push for more "soft" stuff

IMHO they're kind of right about snowflakes, but at the same time I feel like the left has to be like that, it has to care about the language etc and the hard part is how to do it without alienating people, making them feel bad when they say "the wrong thing".
