@haydebug_ founding vision of the web but social 3D

[Avafe @AvafeIsMe]

roblox devs should band together to create a 3D internet, comprised of open standards owned by no single platform or company

[Avafe @AvafeIsMe]

@RaenLua love w3c but ideally something more viable

[ev1 @nonbinary]

people got what they asked for and now the narrative is finally "the parents are at fault"

its too late now 😇

[Avafe @AvafeIsMe]

@nonbinary Yeah I guess you'd have to upload them as meshes if scripts can't access raw union data

Roblox blocked cross-asset usage of InsertService:LoadAsset() so I'm using ModelSquash to load in cosmetic model files at runtime

Part of new monetization features coming soon to an Avalog near you #robloxdev #gamedev

[Avafe @AvafeIsMe]

@hiddenreplies12 The policy changes only affect models published to the Creator Store. Games can load and require assets as they please

[Avafe @AvafeIsMe]

@Adonis_RBX Assets published to the Creator Store using require() or LoadAsset to insert other assets via code. It was restricted to prevent remote code exploits but without a viable alternative for safe and legitimate usage (loading models, effects, etc)

roblox is still very profitable for devs but the spirit is fading.. remember that you can always learn another engine

[Avafe @AvafeIsMe]

@kikarhakadurim I make software for other Roblox developers. This software in particular depends upon sending requests to my own web backend, so I pay for those server costs myself

[Avafe @AvafeIsMe]

i noticed my cloudflare bill was unusually high so i "made" an SQL query to find the biggest "request wasters" per game id

i'm being accidentally spammed by a set of steal a brainrot ripoffs which teleport users between clone games to avoid roblox moderation and- 🧵

-while avalog generates them revenue 💀 so i'm now creating rate limit rules to block their use of avalog in case there's larger scale abuse

moral of the story: cut off your enemies and starve them

[Avafe @AvafeIsMe]

-artificially inflate their metrics. Avalog calls my backend whenever a new server is created, and their servers don't last long because players are constantly teleported in and out

their waste ratio is up to 300x higher than other adopters and they have cost me a whole $5- 🧵

Lives alongside the telemetry ingestion endpoints, querying Cloudflare's Analytics Engine with SQL

I've awoken with very few memories of my life before; all that I do know is that several scrolls have washed up amongst the shoreline.

I need your help to guide me back to her.
