Re: The Ethicality of GenAI ZScript

Less cheeky: The ethical issues with LLMs in general are less about your intent in using it, and more about the externalities. I fully believe there's a lot of creative and earnest people who wish to use "AI" the "right" way, to create meaningful things beyond their skill ceiling, without dishonesty ...

Using GenAI/LLM code is a great way to never get any better.

Re: How are you all putting skies on walls (survey)

So far as I'm aware, only 2 is considered "valid". The rest are accidental and shouldn't be relied on. At least that's the only way I ever learned; I could be wrong.

(note: this does not include Line_Horizon, which is also valid but not a classic engine method)

Re: UZDoom 4.14.3

Hi. If this is meant to address a bug in UZDoom, please open an issue report on Github. No one is going to just add your code into the engine like this.

Also works fine for me.

Note that the new theme might not show up until you refresh the page or navigate to another page.

Re: Thy Flesh Consumed Re-ordered

The download is still working for me. But since it's only 4kb I'll attach it here.

Re: I'm an artist looking for a job.

Do you have a portfolio anywhere?

Why did you choose this community to advertise your services?

What made you decide to come in asking for paid work instead of joining the community as a member and gaining some trust?

Re: What’s Happening With UZDoom?

Graf hasn't been removed from anything. I think in the past developers were mods by default, but that hasn't been the case for an extremely long time. Developers do have some light modding permissions for stuff like moving bug reports.

Re: New Valve Hardware Announcement

The main special sauce with the Steam Machine is SteamOS, which is basically a custom Arch Linux that boots into a fancy new Steam Big Picture mode.

You can get all the same baseline compatibility for almost any Linux PC just by using Steam normally.

It's a prebuilt midrange PC with console-like ...

Re: UZDoom 4.14.3 Pre-release


Congrats on the release.

Aliens TC has had a behavior issue in GZDoom for some time: in E2M4, xenos are supposed to drop down from vents into the medlab, but they do not and get stuck on the edges. Changing compatibility modes does not seem to resolve it. Any chance this can be fixed?

Re: What’s Happening With UZDoom?

Didn't sign the announcement because I've mainly just been watching from the sidelines, but I do want to say that UZDoom has my full support and encouragement. Looking forward to what the future may bring.

Re: Whats happening ?

Some of the cornerstones that UZDoom is building itself on are community, trust, and respect. It's hard to see total radio silence on the ZDoom home forum, while carrying on a lively discussion elsewhere as being consistent with that.

Like I said. It seems like a mis-step to me.

Re: Whats happening ?

An the UZDoom GitHub page it is mentioned that UZDoom is based the DOOM engine. While that is true in the far, far distant past, it is more based on Randi's ZDoom, Rachel's QDoom and Graf's GZDoom.

Is it so difficult for the UZ team to acknowledge the contributions made by those before them and ...

Sorry folks, I've been absent due to Real Life issues. Most of the discussion about this has been happening in realtime on Discord since that's where the most active developers live.

When stuff like this happens, it can be hard to determine who has the final say because this whole site and ...
