One might even say I called it. I personally lie pretty squarely in the neckbeard brogrammer camp. At work, I'm accused of being a hipster on a near daily basis, which is annoying bc it usually interrupts something really important I'm saying about Wilco.

Mainly because there was no perceived etiquette, and secondly that we'd gone from a relatively Nerdy enclave before the summer that never ended spewed Aol users through the BOOTP gateway. On the one hand, 'me too' chains had a completely different resonance, and on the other hand it was a fertile ground of absolute insanity to cross and poo poo post your way through. There was an ebb and flow of nearly hundreds of accounts, and you could draw people into some crazy, crazy poo poo. The trick is to be detached. Don't take it personally. If you do find yourself taking it personally, walk away and do something that makes you happy. it's one of the reasons I don't really engage with Citizens, because at least three of the boosters are career trolls. The rest of the shitheads on the internet are the bored tween coming into his first bloom of manhood before saying the wrong thing and getting the first slap; the internet makes it easier for this variant of shitlord to flourish, right up until they overstep the line and someone gets hurt. It's easier if you're using a persona to do this. As a real person, I wouldn't engage. One of the things I learned in those usenet years was that the supply of idiots was inexhaustible, and it's not the one that are out for the fun of denigrating someone else, but those that have _nothing else_ to do than denigrate other people. We're hitting peak societal penetration of the internet, which means the whole thing is becoming an interesting projection of the human Id.

PederP posted:My games may be poo poo, but loading and saving is fast I agree with your assessments of xml and json btw. The fact that CryEngine uses xml to define mesh topology is absolutely insane. There was some 10 for the designers where a new guy was describing his job, which included using an internal CIG tool to "build ships", which was literally an xml editor. I almost fainted. Also, word of advice: You don't even actually need to make games any more. All you need to do is pound coke, make a bunch of cokey, cokey promises to stupid people, take their money, run. You could be elected president.

PederP posted:My games may be poo poo, but loading and saving is fast We gzip over the wire a lot. Back in the day we used to automate zip and unzip from FTP's XML files, so we tend to treat binary packing as somewhere in layer 7. Chucking around <1500 bytes in data usually means a single packet, so it's horses for courses. Toops posted:I agree with your assessments of xml and json btw.

Chucking around <1500 bytes in data usually means a single packet, so it's horses for courses. That said, SVG fits vaguely into the category of “sending data to god-know-who using god-knows-what tool” so XML not an absolutely bone-headed idea as a choice. The problem is more that we're stuck in what reminds of the early days of HTML, when those tools — while ostensibly compliant to the scheme — have a funny tendency to not implement everything equally, much less using the same encoding methodology to get across whatever effect you're trying to create.

PederP posted:It can be compared in the sense that XML is very often used when (custom-format) binary data should be used instead. Games should use highly optimized, bespoke, binary formats for almost everything. The fact that CIG has used XML to send mesh data is insane. This isn't data to be shared among applications from different vendors. JSON, XML, etc. can be used in various parts of the production pipeline, but it has no place in run-time data for games. Config files being an exception, as they need to be edited by humans and are not really a performance bottleneck. Okay, someone answer me a dumb question. I've never worked on a game project but I am a programmer of 10+ years... Why aren't these extremely bloated formats (XML, JSON, etc) compiled into a single entity object at run-time. Yes, you'd lose a bit of fidelity... but is it needed to have everything in XML outside the hanger? Lol.

ManofManyAliases posted:We don't know the circumstances of the termination (if any, and if it was done properly), so we can't say otherwise right now. That clause also says they can't use any competing engine for a two year period after termination, so can you explain how the circumstances of the termination would affect this clause? Also interested in which termination clause you think they used.

CIG signed a deal to exclusively use Crytek's engine, this is not about the exact reason of termination. So you just admitted that, yes, they are in deep waters. Either CIG 1. Showed Cryteks source code, violating their agreement 2. Changed engines to no longer be Crytek's, violating their agreement 10 million dollar nothingburger

So they might have proof of termination but they hired a lawyer who is as incompetent as them and forgot to include it in their response? Actually yeah, I can see this happening.

XML is a good format for games to expose Game stats to their audience (gamers) who can then create wonderful tools and stuff. It's also useful for Savegames in SinglePlayer Games if you want to allow your players to be able to do fun stuff. Like with tools: While your hammer is cool and good for hammering nails. It might be be really bad at opening your Power drill. I mean opening it in a way that allows you to put it back together.
