really though, Gintama is an excellent show

its basically set in neo-Feudal Tokyo (so sort of Feudal Japan, but there are things like cars, cell phones, etc mixed in) with aliens

its kind of an actiony anime, its a parody of actiony anime, its a parody of really any anime, its funny, its sad, its got great characters

The first 15 or so episodes may be considered kind of slow because there is a huge loving cast of characters they have to introduce

Last i checked that drat show is still going tho, is that still true? I like shows that have an ending too...

Quick update on Ryan "the Tracer" Archer.

I have since sent his information and his stolen art to the copyright owners.

Eric Belisle who worked for WotC/D&D.
FOX Network and Seth Mc Fahrlan for the Family guy Chicken Boba trace.
Disney for the Boba Fet trace even though it was a copy of a copy.
Reported him to LinkedIn. He got an endorsement from Ben so i think he is one of Ben's buddies. He is also a real bellend: "I am passionate about Art, Marketing and Web Design. I believe good marketing means taking a good product that people want and getting it in front of those people." (https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanarcherart)

I also contacted some friends at SONY, Warner, EMI and Universal to see what can be done to make his name poo poo in the whole industry. People like him that pad their non existent portfolio with stolen artwork need to be blacklisted.

Sorry for the rant, still on meds and sick, i go back to bed now.

Your service has not gone unnoticed, commando.

Man, sometimes when I'm working on solar plebeian, I just have these holy poo poo, is this actually happening? moments. This was one of those moments.

code:

    {
        switch (shipRace)
        {
            case Ship.Race.Goonrathi:

This is part of the logic for spawning new ships during the game. It asks two things:

What race are you? Goonrathi, Sperg, or Stimpire?
What class ship do you want? (options are: Scout, Shuttle, Fighter, Corvette, Cruiser, Capital)

It then returns a reference to that ship's "game object" and the spawn logic creates a new instance of that ship at the position requested (most of that is not in the code I pasted).

Ah Alright, Gotcha

Are you putting in more effort than CIG at this point? Cause it almost feels that way :v:

I haven't played much myself lately, but I still keep up with the goings on and I think it's been a slow stead march of improvements, if nothing really new or amazing (aka Paul is still there). There's a shitload of 'Mechs available and they're getting better at making them all more OK vs most being laughable garbage with a few standouts that everyone uses.

Ah, cool to hear. I've just been checking into the thread now and again and its not caught my fancy but it was fun to shoot mechs with Squawwk Goons.

e: I think if CW was what you were interested in it's a resounding :| though. The underlying robot game itself is still good at least, so long as some of the remaining boneheaded decisions don't send you in to a fit of rage.

I kinda got this from the thread and how theres been no active drive to turn more goons to the game again.

Solar Plebeian Tech Deep-Dive: Asset Pipeline part 1.

This my first time actually narrating a video, so feedback would be great. I noticed right off that I shake my loving mouse around like I just went for a roll in CIG's cocaine swimming pool, so I'll work on that. Also, I was well into the Stella Artois, so forgive the occasional word-snag.

It's pretty techy stuff, so if it gets boring, let me know how I can spice it up.

If you get bored, at least cut to 7:00 to catch my CIG/CR normal map rant.

As much as I want to believe this as being true.
I kinda have my doubts because of the whole TOS section...

Why would any employee even bother commenting about a TOS change? This has literally nothing to do with them.

Oh well I give it the benefit of doubt.

While i too hope against hope for this to be true, it ends on " a few weeks", which should tell you everything you need to know :v:

My theory on the $15 fee is that the guy getting charged received the ship from someone else, that person demanded a chargeback, and CIG is extorting the fee out of the gift recipient by holding the account hostage.

So not a monetization of the refund requests, but an indirect monetization of the grey market?

I'd say that sounds like a slippery slope.

That is, if this wasn't CIG and the fact that they're already past the slope, past the greasy sludge pool at the end of the slope and firmly inside the backer grease refinery where dreams are made into lucrative glue.

So what are the bets on the first fatality when this project finally folds? Backer suicide? Devs lynched by by distraught citizens? Bens precarious health gives out in the face of seeing his idol fall from grace? I seriously can't see this thing fading away without some bloodshed given how invested so many crazy people are at this point.

The people who spent tens of thousands of dollars and lost their spouse/family due to this insanity rate very high on the suicide watchlist after all this is over.
