Oh boy I lo- hate these things because I have to think of good things to talk about and I only post them because I have nothing good to do.

* How many of you are dealing with touch support and alternative input sources? How are you doing it?
* Have you tried allowing rebindable controls? I don't see it in other games, ever, and I don't know why people don't implement it.
* There was a post about tipping. What if we all got some description of tip address *ahemfedoras* and used that instead that'd be far better than Roblox t-shirts
* What is the most complicated thing you've had to serialize in your developments?
* What -is- the Scripters meta anyway?
* Pokémon. My little brother is obsessed and insists I give them a mention.
* How do I convert a 2D vector into a 3D rotation (Assuming the 2D vector can be taken to express a movement around an arbitrarily sized sphere)?
* Rawr.
* Anyone found good use for the Neon material yet?
* Done anything cool with BillboardGuis lately? No me neither.

That is all. Thank you for your time.

@Op, I was thinking about making a vamped version of Robloxs particles with billboards. Vamped being more customization with same or little worse preformace.

a somewhat transparent neon brick is pretty nice for blurring the camera, you can position it right in front of the local player's camera and it will make a nice blurring effect. hacky though

@Insta who invited you to this thread? But to add to your concept why not use the 3D GUI module and a semi transparent neon for a blur?

@dev

You could try tipping with FedoraCoins. They're a commodity with very little monetary value that you can get in large quantities.

well, as for rebindable controls for your character, that'd be a bit more challenging

however i'm doing them for a gun, that's why i said "something similar" :P

Rebinable Controls?

As in remove this control, then add a different one, and then remove THAT control and add another control?

@elun What's the difference in math behind billboard particles and screen GUI particles if you need a new discussion thread?

"Rebinable Controls?

pretty much, the option to customize your keybinds to keybinds that you want.

Not really cool but i updated my replacement of the roblox humanoid name thing core gui. It is a bbgui which displays the players name above their head; it looks a lot nicer than the default one.

* How many of you are dealing with touch support and alternative input sources? How are you doing it?
Not I

* Have you tried allowing rebindable controls? I don't see it in other games, ever, and I
don't know why people don't implement it.
I'm too lazy to create something worth changing the controls for

* There was a post about tipping. What if we all got some description of tip address *ahemfedoras* and used that instead that'd be far better than Roblox t-shirts
The asterisk from the bullet point and the asterisk from the fedoras comment lines up.
Can I play a jazz instrument while my fedora is out?

* What is the most complicated thing you've had to serialize in your developments?
I don't really use RBX.Lua anymore

* What -is- the Scripters meta anyway?
hm?

* Pokémon. My little brother is obsessed and insists I give them a mention.
lol I met a kid a few weeks who told me he was too busy breeding his eevees or whatever. Who plays pokemon competitively??

* How do I convert a 2D vector into a 3D rotation (Assuming the 2D vector can be taken to express a movement around an arbitrarily sized sphere)?
The question is too ambiguous for me to understand.

* Rawr.
glub

* Anyone found good use for the Neon material yet?
lateregistration made a sassy blur effect using them that I pretty much copied

* Done anything cool with BillboardGuis lately? No me neither.
nope, almost seems a little too robloxy for me to use in any real work


did you get abducted by disco aliens or something? otherwise where've you been for the past X days?
