| 05:28.36 | turtles1 | So I'm trying to figure out what causes a certain bug to happen in my map so that I can reproduce the issue |
| 05:28.53 | turtles1 | and managed to find a simple replay where it happens |
| 05:29.49 | turtles1 | but when I watch the replay to try and study it, once it gets to where the bug happens I get a screen which pops up with "Replay Desynch" |
| 05:30.20 | turtles1 | and buttons to return to Bnet or view score screen |
| 05:30.48 | turtles1 | Wondering if that would indicate that theres some kind of memory corruption going on or something? |
| 05:31.10 | turtles1 | the game itself did not drop. Just the replay. |

| 13:24.20 | ckSynergy | Elo Jademus, how goes your day? |
| 13:25.11 | JademusSreg | Just started, more or less. Slept well. |
| 13:26.03 | ckSynergy | That's good to hear :) |
| 13:26.15 | ckSynergy | Whats on the agenda for today? |
| 13:27.43 | JademusSreg | AI work, weighting AI waves to sort by priority for new unit assignment. |
| 13:28.30 | ckSynergy | Interesting. I always wanted to try my hand at AI scripting, but I've been afraid I might totally crash sc2 lol |
| 13:29.01 | JademusSreg | Naw. Besides, plenty of easier ways to crash SC2. |
| 13:29.43 | ckSynergy | true true. Like loading the UI Editor. lol |
| 13:31.51 | JademusSreg | Can crash nearly any SC2 game simply by launching the client from the editor, and playing a game on bnet, and using the editor console to use the game command to issue in-game commands. =D |
| 13:33.15 | JademusSreg | Or a behavior which apply effects to decrease the count of that behavior, that would always crash, dunno if they fixed it. |
| 13:34.17 | JademusSreg | Discovered that bug while working on a tiberium poc. |
| 13:35.32 | JademusSreg | https://www.dropbox.com/s/hxx7y0xsbz8gucx/Tiberium%20Red%20Zone.jpg |
| 13:38.48 | JademusSreg | Tragic, I love tiberium (who wouldn't love a dynamic self-replicating proton lattice?), but can't do anything meaningful with the concept, given it's part of the C&C brand of game-shaped pooturds. |

| 13:44.32 | Merc | so is that one big minable patch of crystal, or what |
| 13:44.54 | Delphinium | Someone requested a grapple hook model from me |
| 13:45.07 | Delphinium | any one has ideas on that? |
| 13:45.30 | ckSynergy | ummmm |
| 13:45.31 | Merc | <PROTECTED> |
| 13:45.35 | ckSynergy | what kind of grapple hook? |
| 13:46.05 | ckSynergy | Like, one that latches onto units, or onto buildings? |
| 13:46.09 | Delphinium | I don't know, but I think it's the one can grapple walls. |
| 13:46.13 | JademusSreg | Each individual crystal replenishes itself, visibly growing or shrinking depending on the resource value it contains, applies its own cracks+glow, and self-replicates to adjecent open areas. Quite nice. |
| 13:46.15 | Merc | and 'hook' gives a lot of unrelated hits :D |
| 13:46.23 | JademusSreg | *crystal patch |
| 13:46.44 | Merc | that's pretty interesting |
| 13:46.50 | ckSynergy | Jademus: That's your map screenshot? |
| 13:46.52 | Merc | could give a good twist to economy |
| 13:47.03 | JademusSreg | That's a demo/poc screenshot. |
| 13:47.08 | Merc | too many scvs and you are in danger of mining out the patch, hurting you in the long run |

| 13:47.28 | ckSynergy | Can you do me a favor? |
| 13:47.32 | JademusSreg | ? |

| 16:33.01 | JademusSreg | Attach |
| 16:33.58 | JademusSreg | Attach messages have parameters for siteops, often for local rotation and local offset as well thus avoiding the need for siteops. |

| 16:48.34 | JademusSreg | Why would you set the target when you can put the event in the actor to which they should attach? |
| 16:48.47 | pirate | cuz quads are cray cray |

| 19:57.00 | JademusSreg | Naw, the have a process. |
| 19:57.03 | JademusSreg | *they |
| 19:59.04 | JademusSreg | Unfortunately, HR being what it is, nothing useful was gained from the experience, since feedback is apparently taboo for their tribe. |
| 20:09.56 | Merc | probably some underqualified bozo with a good network that gets in |
| 20:12.24 | Arcane|Work1 | Possibly, though, as I'm learning/have learned, technical qualification is but one of many things needed. And yes, it is known for job postings to be posted for various reasons, when the person for that position has already been determined (either a specialist of some kind, or personal recommendation, or a former intern). |
| 20:13.40 | Arcane|Work1 | Blizzard does have a fair amount of interns, and although not experience, are not underqualified, at least if my classmates are to go by. I imagine Blizzard draws a fair number of their software interns from UCI, given the proximity. |
| 20:14.10 | JademusSreg | Got no information, either way. Not useful to assume, as people are often so inclined in defense of their egos. |
| 20:15.12 | Merc | In other news, I polished my Orc Shaman for a bit: http://i.imgur.com/quAomw6.gif |
| 20:15.16 | JademusSreg | Only reasonable position in this case is agnostic, pending more useful information. |
| 20:15.20 | Arcane|Work1 | Yes, unfortunately, for HR, there is nothing to be gained, and much to risk, by giving any kind of feedback. Feedback can be used as a basis for a lawsuit, however poorly and misguided it may be, whereas no feedback means no lawsuit is even possible. |
| 20:15.47 | Arcane|Work1 | Merc, very nice |
| 20:15.55 | Arcane|Work1 | like the flashy lightning effects |
| 20:16.14 | Merc | they're in teeeaaam colorrrr |
| 20:16.24 | JademusSreg | Rwwwoooorghar. |
| 20:16.35 | Merc | gotta add some effects like that to make each unit stand out |
| 20:16.44 | Merc | aint easy being green |
| 20:16.49 | Merc | they all look the same |
| 20:17.02 | Arcane|Work1 | Although, from a technical standpoint, unless those flashes are to be inherent to the model and the mode never reused, it would have been better to make the flashes a separate model and add to the base model as part of actors, with various site ops. |
| 20:17.30 | Arcane|Work1 | But such a viewpoint is purely techincal, I do not presume to know your design intent. |
| 20:17.40 | Merc | yeah I thought about making a base orc and add shit to it with technical magics |
| 20:17.41 | JademusSreg | =D |
| 20:17.59 | Merc | but considering I cant get beam actors to display properly, one step at a time |
| 20:18.05 | Merc | the file will just have to be a bit big |
| 20:18.55 | Arcane|Work1 | Wise course of action, better to have something working and then decompose and refine later. As the saying goes "Premature optimization is the root of evil" |
| 20:19.13 | Merc | don't know about that |
| 20:19.22 | JademusSreg | See also: YAGNI |
| 20:19.25 | Merc | I just dont want to plan to do stuff I don't know if I cant avoid it |
| 20:19.43 | Merc | this gets the job done, and I get to move on to other stuff |
| 20:20.08 | Merc | if I happen to learn how to do it later, I'll consider it. At that point I might have a reason to need to redo the entire thing anyway |
| 20:21.22 | Arcane|Work1 | Exactly :D |
| 20:21.29 | Merc | Like I had to redo this guy just now, because I realized I needed Unload animations |
| 20:21.41 | Merc | and I had just learned to do those particle thingys with flipbook animations |
| 20:21.48 | Arcane|Work1 | There is a fine balance between planning and doing :) |
| 20:21.53 | Merc | so I thought I'd add some fancy lightning |
| 20:22.01 | Arcane|Work1 | Spending too much on one makes one rusty at both. |
| 20:22.13 | JademusSreg | Spritesheets. =D |
| 20:22.39 | Merc | if there's one thing I got experience with, it's those |
| 20:23.45 | JademusSreg | Just have disdain for the term "flipbook", moreso when each is a separate texture asset. |

| 20:34.43 | Merc | what's wrong with sprites |
| 20:36.24 | JademusSreg | You used the term, haha. And spritesheets are fine; SC2 uses them all over the place already. |
| 20:36.44 | Bounty | *gasp* you never heard of a flipbook? |
| 20:36.55 | Merc | well the term seems to be flipbook in sc2 |
| 20:37.01 | Merc | says so in art tools |
| 20:37.07 | Merc | when in rome |
| 20:37.26 | JademusSreg | Damn you Blizz for using that infernal term. |
| 20:38.12 | Bounty | Technically everything is a flipbook lol |
| 20:38.18 | Bounty | *shrug* |
| 20:38.24 | Merc | bedtime now. I was gonna pump you guys for some tips on my shitty chain lightning that wont display |
| 20:38.46 | Merc | later I guess |
| 20:38.59 | Bounty | There should be a tutorial on chain lightning effects on mapster. |
| 20:39.08 | Merc | thats the one that I cant get to display |
| 20:39.30 | Merc | great tutorial, but I went through everything and I cant find what I did wrong |
| 20:39.34 | Bounty | Damn... I guess it got patched. |
| 20:39.38 | Bounty | It was kinda old. |
| 20:39.40 | Merc | and apparently others had the same problem |
| 20:39.55 | grim001 | https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/22137420/particles.png |
| 20:39.57 | Merc | and there were replies like "nvm solved through IRC :)" |
| 20:40.10 | grim001 | that's 2 million particles |
| 20:40.15 | Merc | while I am like "GOD DAMNIT WHAT WAS THE SOLUTION YOU MOTHERFUCKER" |

| 20:41.15 | Bounty | haha... gotta love it Merc |
| 20:41.19 | JademusSreg | Merc, I'll assist ya, laterish. =D |
| 20:41.55 | grim001 | transform feedback was the biggest pain in the ass I've had to implement since I started this engine |
| 20:42.14 | grim001 | probably was the last major hurdle though |

| 21:23.35 | Swordman | How can i change the design of a progressbar in a dialog? |
| 21:25.42 | Ahli_ | images? |
| 21:26.50 | Swordman | yeah but i have problems configurating them. It's just an image behind the progressbar. i want the images to replace the standard progressbar border. |
| 21:29.11 | Ahli_ | btw, you can always create your own progress bar with a background image and an image that you resize for the progress. |
| 21:29.23 | Ahli_ | the progress bar's image is just a single image, afaIk |
| 21:34.08 | Arcane|Work1 | ^ |
| 21:34.52 | Arcane|Work1 | The progress bar has 2 images: The background one (which is normally placed on top and as a border) and the image that makes up the progress, which is scaled to to fill the bar relative to the current and max values. |
| 21:35.31 | Arcane|Work1 | I can't remember if the game tiles the image or scales it (I think it tiles). |
