00:48.50 | Wormy_semi_here | Monet, Liquid_Ink, DrodoEmpire: Linnormr http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/File:LinnormrFinal.png Tell me if the blue halo is visible on your monitors. |
00:49.13 | DrodoEmpire | If I get what you mean, then yep |
00:49.46 | Wormy_semi_here | cool |
00:49.49 | Wormy_semi_here | And stars? |
00:49.57 | Liquid_Ink | Yes |
00:50.50 | Wormy_semi_here | Awesome |
00:53.32 | Wormy_semi_here | Looks like a brilliant skiiing resort imo |
01:03.23 | DrodoEmpire | Could be yaeh |
01:03.25 | DrodoEmpire | *yeah |
01:05.02 | Monet | The stars are faint but they're there |
01:05.31 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
01:13.08 | Wormy_semi_here | Good, I was playing with blending modes, that one cut down the the harshness of the halo. I brightened the stars but I didn't want them too bright, since they shouldn't be very visible in such a glare |
01:13.17 | DrodoEmpire | Ahh |
01:13.50 | Wormy_semi_here | But of course they disappear if the image is small or on certain browser settings |
01:14.10 | Wormy_semi_here | If enough people couldn't see those features at all I'd make it brighter |
01:16.00 | DrodoEmpire | Just read the page |
01:16.03 | DrodoEmpire | Pretty awesome |
01:16.45 | DrodoEmpire | Should definitely be used as a setting in a fiction-- maybe with Timonax? |
01:17.01 | DrodoEmpire | Speaking of-- would you want to work on Chapter Three Wormy? |
01:17.35 | Wormy_semi_here | That would be great. I imagine Linnormr is currently lacking in women, so the Vikings might want to go raiding for them |
01:17.46 | Wormy_semi_here | I can now, yes |
01:17.46 | DrodoEmpire | True |
01:17.49 | DrodoEmpire | Awesome |
01:22.29 | Tek0516 | Maybe I'll work on another Roreinia chapter |

15:08.55 | NeonPanda | hi all |
15:09.39 | NeonPanda | Hachiman: so Fracture of Biel-Tan is out, sure enough craftworld gone crack and Iyanden almost went with it |
15:18.23 | Hachiman | Shit |
15:19.47 | NeonPanda | Prince Yriel died and then un-died |
15:20.09 | NeonPanda | and in other news, turns out the Ynnari have four of the five Croneswords, and at that only four because one of them wasn't where it was supposed to be |
15:21.06 | NeonPanda | also, Vect and the Haemonculi are verymuch opposed to the Ynnari, but Lelith has straight up said "look, if you guys are legit I'm all in" |
15:21.43 | Wormy_ | Hachiman, Monet, Ghelae: "Science with Kylo Ren" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjsMV1MglA4 |
15:21.57 | Hachiman | NeonPanda: Interesting on Lelith's part |
15:22.08 | NeonPanda | and Yvraine and her followers are indeed capable of bringing wraith-constructs to full sentience, such that they move with the speed and grace of living Eldar |
15:22.32 | NeonPanda | in fact, most of them have started taking up their old names and family runes, organising into full on family ghost-houses |
15:23.11 | NeonPanda | and gdi I want to play a pathfinder character based on them now XD |
15:24.05 | NeonPanda | but it'd have to be for the right kind of campaign |
15:24.20 | Hachiman | As in, Lelith Hesperax? |
15:26.13 | NeonPanda | Lelith Hesperax, queen of wyches, yes- she sent a cohort of her Wyches to support Yvraine, and if what she claims is true then Lelith has offered to put the full force of the Cult of Strife behind the Ynnari |
15:26.21 | NeonPanda | if what Yvraine claims is true* |
15:27.02 | Hachiman | Makes sense |
15:28.13 | NeonPanda | tbh it's almost entirely self-centred at the heart, but hey Yvraine will take the support |
15:29.40 | NeonPanda | oh yeah, and the Ynnari have some pretty fucking dirty rules |
15:29.54 | NeonPanda | like they're not OP in a vacuum, but the potential applications for the clever are delicious |
15:36.40 | Wormy_ | Hachiman: Just noticed Jack in the new trailer doesn't have his magic sword |
15:36.49 | Hachiman | Ooh |
15:37.00 | Wormy_ | That probably means some quest to find it once he regains his purpose |
15:37.05 | Hachiman | Yeah |
15:37.18 | Hachiman | Perhaps Aku or one of his servants has corrupted his sword, or its been destroyed |
15:37.45 | Wormy_ | Yeah, meaning he'd have to find a new weapon to defeat Aku |
15:37.54 | Wormy_ | Maybe that's why he gave up and went into hiding |
15:37.57 | NeonPanda | that or he weeb-magics it to purity again |
15:38.24 | Hachiman | I like the idea of Jack being a master of multiple weapon forms |
15:38.30 | Hachiman | I mean, that's what he canonically is |
15:38.48 | Wormy_ | yeah |
15:39.50 | Hachiman | He travelled the world in his youth studying under a number of cultures and societies about different martial forms, being tutored by the likes of Samurai in his homeland, Shaolin monks, African warriors, etc |
15:40.10 | Hachiman | And he's adapted fairly well to the martial forms and styles of the future as well I think |
15:40.40 | NeonPanda | and apparently he's not a half-bad dancer |
15:40.54 | Hachiman | One thing I hope for is that Aku is still an entertaining villain |
15:41.37 | Hachiman | The premise of the new season seems fairly dark and grim but hopefully there is humour underlying |
15:41.57 | Hachiman | It looks like it's still gonna be fairly artsy though, which is good |

15:45.32 | Hachiman | hur |
15:46.34 | Hachiman | I wonder what alignment Aku would adhere to on the alignment chart |
15:46.42 | NeonPanda | NE or LE imo |
15:47.09 | NeonPanda | I'd probably say NE cos while he does rule with an iron fist, his reality isn't exactly the most ordered |
15:47.32 | Hachiman | Yeah, that makes sense |

18:02.07 | Xho | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lion-man Oldest discovered piece of human art |
18:02.20 | Wormy_away | Well the prehistoric version of Rights of Earth will revisit the Aurignacian culture |
18:02.47 | Wormy_away | And precursors were actively taking interest |
18:17.49 | Xho | Wormy_away: Ever listened to Leprous |
18:17.52 | Ghelae | If you want to continue the theme of basing Precursors on races reported by alleged UFO abductees/contactees, it probably won't surprise you to know that cat-people (and indeed specifically lion-people) are amongst them. |
18:18.17 | Wormy_away | I haven't |
18:19.02 | Wormy_away | Yes, I've heard of contactees being feline-humanoids |
18:19.47 | Cyrannian | I wonder if there are reports of canine-humanoids |
18:19.50 | Wormy_away | Probably when I used to watch compilations of poorly illustrated aliens on Youtube |
18:20.09 | Cyrannian | Like a human-shih-tzu hybrid |
18:21.26 | Wormy_away | Ghelae: I think I might have found a version of the dog alien story, although not in France as I remember it http://karlshuker.blogspot.co.uk/2012/10/my-top-ten-strangest-aliens-close.html |
18:21.49 | Wormy_away | There's some others there too, like the "vegetable man" |
18:21.56 | Wormy_away | but stil humanoid |
18:22.19 | Wormy_away | I'm not going to browse that tonight as I'll be on my own |
18:22.48 | Ghelae | has a look |
18:23.10 | Ghelae | Cyrannian: Canine humanoids are common, but not usually interpreted as aliens. |
18:23.25 | Cyrannian | Just a particularly exotic dog breed |
18:23.46 | Xho | anubis was an outside job #staywoke #polytheism |
18:24.07 | Wormy_away | Shit I can't help myself but read it |
18:24.18 | Ghelae | Werewolves, usually. |
18:26.05 | Ghelae | Basically, for most people, if they see something glowy and weird in the sky, they assume it's an alien spaceship; if they see it in a graveyard or creepy old building, they assume it's a spirit of the dead. Likewise, if they see a weird humanoid creature, if they see it with a UFO they assume it's an alien, and otherwise they think it's a cryptid or paranormal entity. |
18:28.34 | Ghelae | Wormy_away: So the non-humanoids there are the brains, "crazy critter", jelly bags, and tripod (which I've seen referred to with names like "the Enfield horror"). |
18:29.08 | Wormy_away | What's the Enfield horror? |
18:29.32 | Ghelae | "THE TRIPODAL TERROR OF WABASH RIVER VALLEY" |
18:29.58 | Ghelae | Out of the other three, two are limbless blobs. Must be inconvenient being one of them. |
18:30.38 | Wormy_away | lol |
18:30.50 | Ghelae | "FLYING JELLY BAGS AHOY!" is suspiciously two months later than the cinematic release of The Blob. |
18:30.52 | Wormy_away | Non-humanoid depictions of aliens are really quire rare |
18:31.39 | Wormy_away | Also, it turns out the Flatwoods Monster proceeds an edition of a popular comic book with strikingly similar aliens. |
18:32.42 | Wormy_away | Hm I don't want to come across vegetable man |
18:35.29 | Wormy_away | Why would human blood be any use to it's biology? |
18:44.35 | Ghelae | One of the comments blames it on The Thing: "The vegetable man sounds very familiar. The 1951 film The Thing from Another World has a blood sucking vegetable man alien attacking an Arctic base." |
18:44.44 | Ghelae | i.e. another report based on a movie. |
18:48.31 | Ghelae | There is a much longer time between the film and the report, so it's not quite as suspicious as the blob-aliens, though. |
18:57.53 | Wormy_away | Regarding one of the comments above, it seems to me that most people don't see ghosts and UFOs, or spirits / faeries and aliens |
18:59.10 | Wormy_away | Though there are commonalities in themes between forteana, the outer appearance seem to be suited to particular people |
19:00.12 | Wormy_away | I know people who experienced a lot of "nature spirit" type entities and never seen the paranormal manifest as UFOs or aliens |
19:01.06 | Wormy_away | It all implies a psychological cause to me, based on people's beliefs and so on |
19:02.02 | Wormy_away | Psychic experiences wuld be a more common theme linking them all in many cases./ |
19:03.55 | Wormy_away | And I should say one of those people had a strong interest in UFOs at the time they were experiences these spiritual apparitions |
19:51.02 | Tek0516 | Ugh. So now Wikia even gives me messages about using adblockers. I thought the video ads I already got anyway were bad enough. |

22:26.54 | Monet | Really sorry to say. I've seen it a lucky thing if one or two people comment when anything's posted to the IRC.. |
22:35.42 | Monet | We're a small community. By the logic of the 80-20 principle much of the community will be silent or busy when a post is made. |
23:01.30 | Wormy_away | Xho: Well I think maps of Koldenwelt are one of the better types of content in the fic universe |

23:04.33 | Wormy_ | It may interest people that most of image for Tzquuucha was made in Spore |
23:05.42 | Wormy_ | Its an old picture of mine taken in a funny camera filter of Spore effects. I used this picture I made years ago http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/a/a4/Quantum_probablity_space.png/revision/latest?cb=20110623194632 |
23:06.19 | Wormy_ | Then I cloned it multiple times and arranged the model into a funny shape using image editing software + played around with blending modes |
23:07.02 | Wormy_ | I love blending modes |
23:07.10 | Liquid_Ink | Nice |

23:12.09 | Wormy_ | My method of making Linnormr involved a simple ring shape, with a bump map (fakes 3D) using fractal textures to generate mountains and ridges, and a surface shader for the halo effect. The rest was again, digital post-processing |
23:13.08 | Wormy_ | I wanted to use particles to create orbiting icebergs, but they weren't behaving very well this time. |

23:16.59 | DrodoEmpire | what is this |
23:19.43 | Wormy_ | I bet it still brutally enforces the law, just for the good. |
