#unity #unity3d really shat the bed, and speaking as a full-time #panda3d simp, now seems like a good time to simp hard and get some people to see the light. It's battle-tested for #MMORPG and #VR by #Disney back in the day (#BSD3 now). Use #python to write your #3D games so you don't waste another minute on #compiling. Has -all- the features, from skeletal animation and glsl to a robust shader pipeline to collisions and physics. Not to mention amazing community! #gamedev panda3d.org

Wrote a very simple #livecoding #repl for #panda3d so I don't have to constantly restart #python every time I make a little change. This works like a dream and is going to make writing #procedural #art tons more #convenient #gamedev

You can get the code here: discourse.panda3d.org/t/simple

This goes with what I said earlier, every gamedev community (outside of /agdg/ threads) is pozzed. You will be ostracized unless you fully subscribe to SJW ideology. It's why even in the indie scene, it's hard to find non-pozzed game developers. You even have to request an account (while providing links to other sites and profiles for manual approval) just to be on this instance.

In the wake of the Godot situation, I am here to recommend alternatives. Not all of these are engines. Some of them are frameworks, but all of these are FOSS and general purpose.

2D:
* SDL - libsdl.org/
* SFML - sfml-dev.org/
* Allegro - liballeg.org/
* Gosu - libgosu.org/
* Love2D - love2d.org/
* Pygame- pygame.org/
* FreeBASIC - freebasic.net/
* raylib - raylib.com/

3D:
* Irrlicht Engine - irrlicht.sourceforge.io/
* OGRE - ogre3d.org/
* ioquake3 - ioquake3.org/
* Panda3D - panda3d.org/

Both:
* MonoGame - monogame.net
* GDevelop - gdevelop.io/
* jMonkeyEngine - jmonkeyengine.org/
* Lightweight Java Game Library - lwjgl.org/

Shedding DEI and activist hires?
===
Per various notices and filings reviewed by The Los Angeles Times, a total of 393 employees from across the Overwatch 2 and Diablo IV developer’s various offices were informed that, in the coming months, their roles had been deemed redundant and would soon be eliminated.

Said cuts will see the loss of 140 jobs from Activision Blizzard’s Irvine, CA headquarters, 110 jobs from their Santa Monica office, and 143 jobs from their Playa Vista location.

Notably, the exact duties of those cut employees run the gamut from “accountants, software engineers, the director of human resources for World of Warcraft video games, artists, the director of technology game designers, game producers, sound designers and a game director and vice president.”

Senator Scott Wiener is once again at the Folsom Street Fair. The fair features public s*x and extreme degeneracy which are too graphic to post.

Here’s Scott Wiener’s record:

- faked his own hate mail
- attended public s*x & p*** parties
- passed a bill that would no longer require adults who have a*al or oral s*x with a 14 year old to register as a s*x offender
- passed a bill that will no longer make it a felony to knowingly give someone aids without informing them
- introduced a bill that would allow a 12 year old decide if they want to live at home if they don’t like their parents
- Made California a Sanctuary State for kids to receive medical transitions
- Suggested to implement "drag queen 101" class in K-12 schools
- Attended and supported public p*** parties in SF

Godot moderators are going insane blocking anyone they perceive as criticizing their political messaging... Including people who have been long-time Titanium donors. I'll bet that donations to their project are going to tank pretty quickly... Probably even have a lawsuit on their hands. That's what you get when you bring the activists into your organization.

"Godot's self destruction begins as major devs begin to question the amateur and vindictive response of the community and discord managers of the open source game engine."

"Tech guys need to stop putting their social media in the hands of activists, even if they do it for free. The guy who made Godot has been replying to people today saying he has no idea why people are being blocked that haven't even interacted with it."
