Hey y'all! There's a longer post on the site, but I've finally gone through and refreshed my Patreon as I pivot toward talking about and monetizing my entire game development skillset instead of just avatars! Check it out here: https://t.co/O3wJUfH86V

@Ethyriel How deeply interesting. It seems it may be worth transferring mine to be particle-based as well. What's the highest refresh rate you've been able to get?

[CometDev @cometmbpkg]

@vixxyblast It's really just that. They need to make money, so they're capitalizing on the nostalgia users carry. By definition, a game like VRChat is very bad at making money, and without money, its subpar infrastructure choices will bite them in the ass and eventually bankrupt them.

Hey y'all! been a bit but I figured I'd go ahead and update my Patreon with one biiiiggg post on what I've been up to recently. There's a load of cool stuff in there, including extra details on that Minecraft stuff I was up to.

@LukaszBorges Yeah i get you dont worry, i had to heavily censor my reply because i hold nothing but negativity for people who are scummy enough to do such things. I hope you're alright, man.

[CometDev @cometmbpkg]

@LukaszBorges my isp blocked me from port forwarding so i decided to write a mod that fixes that :3

[CometDev @cometmbpkg]

Got dedicated servers and mod diffing working. It's pretty sweet. It needs some major refining before any kind of release but its def getting there. Java is way easier than C++.

[CometDev @cometmbpkg]

Taking a break from LCE: Steamworks Edition because C++ is making my mind melt, so I'm instead working on Steamworks4Java: A java mod that adds Steamworks Multiplayer support.

[CometDev @cometmbpkg]

@cry_twink yeah i do all this stuff in my freetime. this time its because the pre-existing solutions pissed me off and im too damn broke to afford server hosting

It's got a kink or two, but Remote Play Together splitscreening works! It was super easy too, since steam presents it as just another controller. kinda just worked out of the box.

neat right?

[CometDev @cometmbpkg]

@cry_twink ive added full colored lighting, java-style texture packs instead of the dumbshit prepacked bs, im working on fixing saves, chat system, etcetc its alot of neat stuff i cant wait to show off

[CometDev @cometmbpkg]

I've been tinkering with the LCE leak, and I found it stupid that we're lacking WAN multiplayer, so i added Steamworks.

The tests in this video are done with a second computer on a separate wifi, both running the same build, both with eachother friended on Steam.

neat right?

[CometDev @cometmbpkg]

@cry_twink wait until you see the new stuff i have cooked up

[CometDev @cometmbpkg]

@hereswhisper We could discuss it surely! My discord is comet_s

[CometDev @cometmbpkg]

To any of you still keeping up, I setup a ko-fi so things are potentially more available for people, since I know my custom storefront has issues for some! I'll still sell on both, but options are always good. https://t.co/wU5prKMkHE

@Ari05VR if i can finish it! texturing is the bane of my existence and thats kinda where im stuck now... though if i *can* finish it id like to make an iron lung fangame with it but we'll see.

[CometDev @cometmbpkg]

Deviating from usual posting, I recently watched (and forced my friends to watch) Iron Lung with me, and got so inspired, I began modeling the SM-13 herself. It's not often that I do a from-scratch model, so I'm very much diving blind here.
