Looks good!
What theme are you using? And I'd assume your using rainmeter for your CPU, etc.. stuff. What theme is that? I really need to change mine lol.
It's not rainmeter, it's called Sidebar diagnostics.
And the theme is Arc for windows 10 AU.

So I did a clean install of Manjaro last night and it turns out that it run WAY better on my hardware than any other distro, even Linux Mint. Drivers installed perfectly without conflict, nothing extra had to be done to get steam running, ect.
I went with Manjaro for a few reasons
One: It's basically Mint meets Arch. It's still rolling release, but they test each update to ensure stability. So I still get the latest software, but I know it's been tested before I get it. Which is nice knowing I can update safely.
Two: Like I said, hardware is perfect. The hardware detection is amazing, it worked perfectly with both open and closed source drivers and switching between them is painless.
And last: All dat AUR/Arch software.

So my journey for the day ended up bringing my back to Mint. Why? Because with Manjaro, the second I locked/unlocked my screen, it broke the drivers. Regardless of free or non-free, so that couldn't stay
Then I tried Chakra Linux and after it installed, it just soft locked upon boot.
So then I tried Sabayon Linux and installing that was silly, so I gave up.
In the end, Mint seems to be best for my hardware.
Lesson of the day, AMD is shit with Linux, go Intel if you can.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
