The quirk chungus sausagemen branding is weird and feels very dated. The main icon for the game looks like something that belongs to an early iphone app too. The whole thing is stuck in the past millenial slop.

I was saying it’s not mandatory or replacing anything it’s just a new model that Gary chose to show off the physics engine.

I got a Steam notification today that said they revoked my beta access. What's that about? I haven't touched this shit in years.

>>737010616
Got the same. I imagine it's because the beta is over since the game is meant to be released next week.

I dont know why but I have a hate boner for Garry, never interacted with him or anything, but just something about him that makes me automatically hate him immensely, a kind of gut feeling
has he done anything bad?

Didn’t somebody post sales stats a few days ago showing that he’s already made half a million off skin sales?

>>737009120
You know you're not bound to only using those models. The entire point is that you can replace everything.

don't hate the sausage characters or whatever, actually kinda liked them. There was just nothing worth playing during the beta and if there was it wasn't easy to find. Half of the shit that was on there was a worse rip-off of a game on roblox that was already a shitty rip-off of something else or TTT/RP, which represent Garrysmod's last dying breaths to me.

I thought this “game” allowed you to develop source 2 games in realtime and export them in real time and even resell the games you make while owning the license.

i can't believe valve leveraged community source 2 game development to garry instead of giving us a fucking SDK

>>737013506
Honestly. It was such a weird, and stupid move from Valve to give the keys to the sdk to Garry.
I hope someone at some point just extracts the sdk from it after it releases, and makes a standalone version without the added pointless bloat literally not a single person asked for.

So what's /v/'s take on valve's deal that you can sell games made with s&box on steam royalty free? I saw a bunch of youtubers freaking out about how this was supposedly going to kill unity and make s&box the most attractive option for indie devs and /v/ just seemed to ignore it.

I guess it depends on whether royalty free means just the engine or whether that also means valve aren't taking the usual steam sales cut. If the latter that would be huge.

>>737015868
I imagine you still have Steams fee just no engine fee
which is a pretty big deal since you only pay once and then you can export your games directly onto the store

I'll maybe try it again with friends in a few years, but after playing the beta, my hopes are about as low as can be. It'll be a miracle if I even remember it exists.

>>737015868
Valve is still going to take their cut from the purchase and skim their usual marketplace transaction fee on every applicable marketplace cosmetic trade. There may be some standout titles in a couple years that prove me wrong by a miracle, but currently the """games""" I saw in the beta gave me no confidence anything too exciting was in the immediate or even close future. I don't see this overtaking any other engine alternatives in popularity given how late to the party it's arriving

The current selection of "games" are low effort shit with AI slop thumbnails you'd see on Fortnite or Roblox, and the one populated server to join with a double digit player count was a singular RP server with forty players on.

i am a unity dev and i am swapping.

i don't really know how well the s&box platform is going to do, but holy fuck the engine is such a joy to work with after having to deal with unity's shit for so long
i genuinely thought that it was bugged when i renamed a script and recompiled and it finished before i took my finger off the ctrl+s key. in unity, you move a script, change a value, rename anything, it's got to recompile which can take 10-15 seconds. want to hotreload, a feature that should be implemented by default? pay the marketplace, goy.
the GameResource property is just scriptableobjects but better. making editortools is legitimately fun and easy as fuck. you don't need odin or alchemy and have to struggle with shit documentation
it's open source so if there's anything you don't like, just go and change it. the mapping implementation isn't finished at the moment so I just went in and rewrote some hammer features. took me like 6 hours, but everything works perfectly

i spent like my first 20 hours with the engine just trying to port over stuff from unity. things like an abstract audio manager that handles pooling. my own character controllers. an event bus system i rolled + game events.
for almost all of them it ended up being pointless because the engine implements it by default because why the fuck wouldn't you. i was so brainwashed by unity and being forced to DIY so much logical shit that should always exist in video games that I forgot that it doesn't have to be that way

One of the main points of s&box is that facepunch pays out monthly to games and maps depending on their traffic. So if you can make a mildly popular game then that's an extra easy source of income. They want to expand it to more than just games and maps, like models and other assets, but that isn't implemented yet.

>>737018053
thats one of reasons to move to s&box retard-kun, moving over from source1 to source2 to unlock the limitations of the former

I'm going to give it a try for the next project. Source 2 with an easier to use dev kit sounds great.

Making a Roblox alternative is kind of smart considering the Roblox company's reputation even among normies is currently in the shitter. There's a lot of eager devs who'd jump ship.

I will never EVER purchase a game developed with s&box

>>737009120
I don't care its ugly, and understand its supposed to be gmod for VR. The problem is he's getting rid of the entire developed gmod community. It also will never go away since VR and PC are different platforms. Even if he did make S&box a VR compatibility mod for gmod it would never work our properly.

The entire soul of GMod was the source assets. Seeing Half-Life character acting wacky and absurd is funny because they're so mundane it creates a contrast.
Nobody wants to be a guy that looks like a fat down syndrome retard.
Also the market this is trying to create was already taken over by Roblox and shit unity games. No serious developer is going to pour resources into a project on the smallest platform.
Also the name S&ndbox is terrible and I guarantee is going to hurt their SEO on almost all platforms because they put a stupid fucking ampersand in the name.

Roblox is like 800mb and runs on a toaster, and they'll be esentially the same. I really don't understand the selling point of this game. The audio is crackling out of the ass and loading times are abysmal, who would in their right mind pay $20 for a shitty roblox clone?

And /v/ will continue to assume its a flop, spend the next ten years agreeing with eachother it was a famous laughingstock and financial downfall, without ever looking into it or talking to anyone else about it, and when the facts come up they’ll just blow it off like >>737026526

if you can't replace models, then this isn't even GMOD, so you're complaining about nothing

>>737051519
Im not saying that, but lets be real the guy is making millions. Those models are kind of ugly but for making your product legally distinct in order to make millions off of what was a mod, they get the job done and when you see people talk about like its a flop over the next ten years, they’ll be ignoring the fact it makes a fuckload of money from fans who really like it

>>737012481
maybe its shit on purpose to force people to replace it? just an idea

>>737051852
oh okay. It's a creative flop then, not a financial one

>>737051928
It’s a few TTT servers away from being relevant again.

>>737045297
yes i for sure want to buy a game that has $100 "micro"transactions, with no content that I used to have access to for free

>>737051928
I get what youre saying but it wont be a creative flop for the fans
Besides gmod is not actually a game about the developer’s artstyle, its a 3d moviemaking tool

>>737024845
>game about user customization, originality, community creation
>Selling skins for the ugly sausage people models
How exactly is this supposed to work? When someone makes, say, a TTT server with naturalistic models that don't have massive head hitboxes your skins are useless? Why would anyone buy this crap then?

Also, Garry's Mod is on the Source engine, which is very well optimized, so a lot of people can play it on their computers. S&box is on Source 2, which from what I've seen(Half-Life: Alyx, Counter-Strike 2) is not optimized and will require a powerful computer to run, which will leave out a huge portion of players. Unless S&box's developer has some optimizing tricks up their sleeve, the full release of the game is going to be a shit show.

>source 2
What a wreck of an engine. My closet junk PC has an R9 280 and a who-gives-a-fuck CPU can run Red Dead 2 at 40fps. It can't even boot a game of CS2

>>737052424
csgo skins are also ugly, unrealistic, and lazy, but people buy them to resell in the market. they're like nfts for zoomerd

Guys this is going to blow your fucking minds but the models are actually not nearly as bad as you think and are acting. There is in fact accounting for taste

>>737052774
I think you're missing the point of my question. Yeah they're ugly, but they're at least usable for clout and are not immediately made useless by an inherently game mechanic that lets you replace them with any custom asset you want.

It's good for sloppa devs. I'd be researching what already works well on Roblox and then replicate it but tailored for a more teenager audience instead of more kiddy shit. You already know that stuff like amongus clone is going to do well, friendsloppa is going to be easy to make too, maybe a bunch of tycoon games since incremental is doing well on steam already

>>737053716
You're years behind "what already works well on Roblox". There's fundamentally no way to take something like Steal a Brainrot and make it able to entertain anyone but ipad toddlers.

>>737054428
>the only parameter is some shit from a few months ago
Nigga... I'm talking about the entirety of Roblox, and also sosigbox is just really starting out now as a platform compared to Roblox which is unironically older than the posters here. Also, a reminder than skibidi toilet was gmod brainrot

Honestly, my hopes for S&Box is to be able to make something interesting using it, with full intention of shipping it exclusively standalone.
Because, from what I've seen, to compete within S&Box's inner game hub ala Roblox sounds kinda nuts.
I could be wrong on this, but from gandering at their Discord, there's lots of old dogs hounding near Garry, ones with actual experience making code and assets, and they can seemingly ship things 10x faster and with 10x more polish than I, or any other newbie indie dev, can.
Point is, once the thing is shipped, and the money starts flowing in, there'll be no sausage-man-tier circlejerk to stop it, nor will there be Roblox kiddies with low impulse control that'll play and buy anything comes their way, no, I predict that thing is going to be a slaughterhouse, the wild west of indie game development.
I hate to use the word toxic, but in this case, I fear that the highly-skilled of course, but also, the most toxic, thieving, scummy, trend-chasing, Garry-glazing cocksuckers will be the ones coming out of it millionaires, and the rest, they'll the cannon fodder, to be used for pumping viral ideas and assets.
But that's just the vibe I get.

This thread is now a Boog-posting thread

If you can create your own environments in VR and have it look like Alyx in VR then it’s going to be epic. Because Alyx looks better in VR than AAA vr games.

>>737056494
my current plan is to publish long demos on s&box and full standalone on steam
asked one of the lead developers if that was permitted and he had no problem with it, so that's pretty cool. you can double dip by publishing your demo on s&box so it gets playfund revenue and then publishing your game on steam so it gets actual revenue

as for the storefront itself, i don't really have any hope or care that much for it at the moment.
darkrp and garry's mod gamemode recreations are going to dominate as well as any kind of procgen sloppa like roguelikes/incremental/etc. it's just not the kind of games i like making
if the platform takes off, it's going to be massive companies flocking from roblox to harvest the free shekels they'll get by porting their games

>>737033168
>no workshop
DOA. Workshop is the heart of Gmod and the creativity and enginuity of screwing with source surpasses any games modding community besides maybe skyrim

Source is a piece of shit that runs like ass even on computers so far beyond what was ever existent between 2004 and 2013. Just spawn more than 15 NPCs and watch the framerate plummet even if you're some rich retard with a 5090 and a 9850X3D.

>>737062086
it has a not-workshop that lets people upload and import models, sounds, prefabs, maps, and more (including editor extensions) directly into their projects and games
also the streaming method they use to download this content means no need to restart your game/editor or set up any subscriptions

They're revoking beta keys for most people outside of those who were working on games so you'll have to buy it.

I really hope a community goes and creates a ground up game for source 2 that is essentially gmod 2 but under a different name. Something that allows for a powerful and broad ranged lua system and a workshop because nothing was funner than playing gmod with batshit insane and creative mods on flatgrass

why didn't he just use the NPC models from Alyx?

No assets from Alyx or Valve outside of the engine itself because that would've costed more in licensing them. All he wanted was the engine license and not the assets too.
