guildz@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Godot@programming.dev•Godot's Direct3D 12 Rendering Driver got merged today!English8·2 years agoEverything is locked down and filled with NDAs when it comes to console development. To access the xbox game development documentation - you need to sign an NDA (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/gaming/gdk/_content/gc/getstarted/gc-getstarted-toc). To access the SDK (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/gdk) you need to be a “Registered Dev Center Partner” which requires a publisher, fee payment, and agreement (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/publish/partner-center/open-a-developer-account). BUT even more specifically section 3 of the public GDK license agreement (https://github.com/microsoft/GDK/blob/Main/LICENSE-EN-US.MD) gives an idea of what you are allowed to do with that SDK code once given access and you can only use the code for “internal” use and only make one copy for backup use. This isnt even getting into how using the GDK makes your app subject to the usage agreement (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/usage-rules-for-digital-goods-rules-83812b1f-1ecd-9a46-d3a7-ad1eadce49d1).

guildz@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Godot@programming.dev•W4 Games raises $15M to drive video game development inflection with Godot EngineEnglish6·2 years agoThe following is just my opinon on all this, but the way that I see it is that W4 represents industry priorities in the engine. In this example, the industry needs strong console support or cloud gaming and is willing to invest in it; or previously DirectX support. The Godot Foundation ensures that godot is able to focus on non-industry needs as well as community management. So they technically both contribute to the engine, but dont really overlap with each other cause they represent different groups who need to do different things with the same engine. That said - interop is needed as well because it is the same engine. ATM I trust juan and crew and the buracracy that is being built around godot to protect it and us while maintaining momentum.
It was between this one and https://mastodon.social/@ryanhoulihan/111497118442295008 ; which someone else can post

guildz@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Dear Lemmings, how can we funnel reddit users to lemmy?English9·2 years agoHonestly, lemmy and the fediverse as a whole will have natural growth and thats fine - mastodon has been around for like 8 years and is only recently getting a small amount of attention and mainstream usage. Like take the long view - like the really long view like 15 years from now. It’ll probably be huge, but until then we will just share memes and have a good time discussing stuff.

guildz@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•People who do this shitEnglish1·2 years agoKarma is the total upvotes - downvotes across all posts made by an account on reddit; on the fediverse there is only upvotes (likes or boosts depending on implementation) and downvotes (dislikes) per post. Theoretically you could calculate it for your account, but because you cant display it anywhere (and it isnt used for anything) it wouldnt be of much use.
guildz@lemmy.blahaj.zonetoLemmy Support@lemmy.ml•How does "language" selection work in Lemmy?English0·2 years agoOh, yeah I guess that would be an instance admin thing cause mine has a whole bunch in that settings box. Let them know that “undetermined” needs to be included as an selectable language.
guildz@lemmy.blahaj.zonetoLemmy Support@lemmy.ml•How does "language" selection work in Lemmy?English1·2 years agoOn the web interface, go to your account settings and out of all the languages selected; ensure that “undefined” is one of them. You can select multiple languages by holding down the “control” key and clicking. For example, right now I have both “english” and “undefined” as the languages I use.
