Re: Game saves vs scripts

First off, yay for the Lua2JSON conversion. For the equipment, the problem is somewhat linked to the fact that we don't really differentiate equipment types and instances, mostly because when I wrote it I didn't have the courage to discuss it with the grown ups so I stuck with the statu quo. But hey...

Re: New Music Candidate

Oh yeah, I totally agree on the FFVII vibe. From the first high notes I kept expecting Sephiroth to come by my office and slaughter everyone... While a nice piece in itself, I can't see a situation in Pioneer where it would be suitable. The overall slow beat associated with the imperfect chords are ...

Re: A simple (sort of) description of Pioneers rendering.

Question/clarification : about the const vs uniform distinction, uniform means data that will be the same for all vertices but will not be constant across frames, right ?

Re: Compiling Pioneer for Raspberry Pi (ARM)

Oh hey, I should get my Pi out my drawer and try this! I'm using plain old Debian on it instead of Raspbian (Raspbian uses armv5+float because of the Pi1 whereas the Pi2 can run the armhf port of Debian).

Re: Wish to work on System generation, and more...

As a (perhaps emeritus?) member of the "core team" [0], I wish you wouldn't say "we". You're actually using it way more often than the people that actually do the work, and I'm fairly sure that, not knowing any better I'd assume you were a prominent member, if newly arrived, of t...

Re: no music linux build

Re: gameplay idea (FPS)

Well, Pioneer is open source, so I don't think any of us would turn away somebody who wants to implement it and has the knowledge, time, intention and willpower to do it, but don't count on that happening. On the other hand, there isn't anything like that in the scope of the game for good reason. I...
