v0.0.4-maredev patch notes>Ponies wait for you nowWhen you start talking to a pony she stops what she's doing and actually pays attention. Walk ~8 m away or don't say anything for a minute and she goes back to her schedule.>Pay poniesPonies have wallets now. Hit J to open a pony's profile (or point at her in VR), there's buttons to pay 5/20/50/100 bits. She gets told about the payment. The AI can't just decide to take or spend money on its own.>Trixie showsYou can hire Trixie for 50 bits from her profile page. She does a whole ~3 minute show with fireworks, 15-30 ponies show up to watch, and her icon pops up on the map. She'll also sometimes just do a show on her own.>LOG SHARING!!!!You can read back old conversations. It's in the pause menu and title screen. You can save any conversation as a picture, goes into your Pictures folder.>New menusUI overhaul merged into main. Thanks, MLPChag Anon. >In-game updater (Windows/Linux)The pause menu tells you when there's a new version and can download+install. You can turn this off in Settings > Updates.>Wardrobe8 new sock colours at the wardrobe mirror.>FixesApple trees work properly again. Ripe spring through autumn, regrow after 2 days. If you picked them in an older save they'll be back immediately.Love/friendship gain is roughly 2x faster now, but capped per reply and per conversation so you can't cheese it in one sitting.Hayburger blackscreen fixed.Enter to open chat doesn't drop whoever you're carrying anymore, and doesn't stand you up either.Your outfit stays on when you sleep.Fixed the "I think I hear someone knocking" line showing up in basically every indoor conversation.Ponies don't think you grabbed their hoof anymore when they raised it themselves.>QuestInstall over the old APK.I'll be releasing an overhaul and improvement to Trixie shows to see if auto-update works. Please reinstall for v0.0.4. If it works, it'll be the last time you need to reinstall.

>>43664496Worst pony edition*
ETA on the Rock Farm mod/expansion? I want Marble
>>43664531Probably after Canterlot, and then Cloudsdale.
>>43664531I want Limestone*ftfy!
>>43664438Based devanon adding my socks. Ill check out the new update when I'm not too tired from wageslaving
>>43664423Trixie is in this game? Dropped
>>43664438>>Pay poniesBut can ponies pay me? It'd open up the ability to RP some activities that aren't in the game yet. I've had Twilight and Rarity offer me a job doing something for them around the library/boutique, but pretending to do so and then telling them the job is done doesn't earn you any bits.I've also had Pinkie offer me sweets for free, but she's not able to actually do that, so maybe a gift-giving feature in general would be nice, where you can give and receive gifts or bits.
>>43664549Yes, they can!
This was mentioned at the end of last thread, but someone wrote up some lyrics for a Home: Equestria song. It'll be to the tune of the original FiM Theme (if you don't know it... the fuck are you doing here? Go look it up on youtube, retard). If any Anon's are interested in contributing, reply to this post, and if I get enough, I'll throw something together in audacity. This is mostly to gauge interest. Also to see if we need to improve the lyrics, or just go with what the other anon wrote. I'm not the one who wrote these, so, yknow.Devanon said that if we pull it off, he'll have it play occasionally in the menu. So, get those vocal chords going, fags.LYRICS:My Home:Equestria, My Home:EquestriaAhh ahh ahh ahh…My Home:EquestriaI used to wonder what gaming will bringMy Home:EquestriaUntil Devanon shared his project with meBig open world, tons of mares,AI minds, limitless mods,Posting threads, it's an easy feat,And drama makes it all complete!You have my Home:EquestriaDo you know you can do what you want?
>>43664438Appreciate your efforts and quick turnaround on updates devanon!
>>43664555Thread hitting bump limit so fast and so often that I have to put this shit on the double-time to get an update out of the door for each new thread so I don't finish it 5 minutes later and have the OP be outdated for a few days so please forgive me if these last few updates have been rushed I haven't really had the time to sit and test them rigorously
Love the new log system, fantastic work.
>>43664550Eggsellent
>Bug report anchorPlease reply here with bugs/issues/feature requests.
>>43664560Not DevAnon, but the Anon who pushed this.If you see problems or want more features, don't hesitate.
>>43664563Once again requesting an ARM linux build for standalone play on the steam frameFEX translation does not work and just crashes, Proton with the windows version crashes when booted in VR mode, and Quest version patched for the frame starts, but once you hit play and load a new save, it forever hangs in the void.If any of these could be made to work too, I would happily take it
>>43664551Maybe it should be>Don't you know the fun never ends Or something to parallel the "FRIEEEEEEEENDS" part.
>>43664569I'll work on it ASAP.
>>43664574Thank you devanon!I cant wait to go out into a large empty field with my headset so I can walk around ponyville with my own two feet!
>>43664578That's a really cool idea, shit. I wish I could do that without worrying about tripping on shit or being seen by people. I hope it actually works in game, I'm not sure how the code handles moving around physically. Let me know.
>>43664565Would love to see more themes, it got a little buggy when selecting text. I picked 5 lines but when I chose picture mode all the other lines were selected too. Had to pick and unpick a couple of times before it behaved properly, could've been a fluke or mistake on my part though.
>>43664570>Do you know you can do what you want?sums up the arguing that took most of the last thread, I think. Although phonetically it doesn't hold up...
>>43664423I reckon we should have an anchor for logs,mods,videos,greens,wip or ideas!
>>43664597I'd prefer the fun little theme song not to focus too much on some gay drama
>>43664570I was thinking the ending needed to be redone too. It kinda just falls flat near the end. I like your idea. Maybe "Don't you know the ride never ends"? I think that sounds good, especially if a bunch of anons are singing in harmony?
>>43664600true, should be something more time-proofYou have my Home:EquestriaThat's where I'm going to beeeeeewould fit nicely, being the main menu music
>>43664551Lyrically, wouldn't it make more sense to have it be>I used to wonder what gaming would beIt fits with the original lyrics better
>>43664438>Love/friendship gain is roughly 2x faster now, but capped per reply and per conversation so you can't cheese it in one sitting.Would it be possible to have an option for "classic" slower love/friendship gain in settings? I loved the pace of the game in previous versions and wouldn't have changed it, personally. Then again, I might end up liking it better the new way, but it'd be nice to have the option.
>>43664606>Don't you know the ride never ends"?I like this idea
>>43664569Makes me a bit sad I lost the lottery for Steam Frames, but real happy for you.
>>43664438>Love/friendship gain is roughly 2x faster nowIf you didn't get to 100 love with your waifu before this update, then you didn't beat the game.
So, how do I get text to speech to work? When I press T and speak in the microphone, I just get a message "Speech recognition could not read this recording." Do I need to install something (I'm using Mint) or connect somewhere, or how does this work?
>>43664438What's the time system like behind the scenes? The VN in /chag/ has a whole calendar with seasons and holidays and whatnot. Seasons and weather might be too much to implement in one go, but if you can grab that calendar the date and any special events could just be an optional string sent to the model. If it could be updated in game then you could even schedule dates and ponies could learn Anon's birthday and such.Also thanks a lot for the fixes like the knocking issue and hoof grab. Immersion breaking stuff is doubly impactful in simulations like this.
>>43664423Can I play this game without a microphone, just by typing? My headset broke recently.
Good news everypony! Due to my ADHD, we might be able to get assets into the game easier! Found a way of taking an image and making a 3D render.https://u.pone.rs/lelhddki.webm>>43664551I made some horrors. Enjoy. Country: https://u.pone.rs/nbfauiiw.wavEpic: https://u.pone.rs/feigvoyy.wavPop: https://u.pone.rs/xpupdpni.wav
>>43664644you reminded me of an old mod for GTA IV that would set the time and weather to follow your PC's clock and weather app. Might be some takers for such a feature.Regarding birthdays, each pony could have their date to invite friends for celebration. If there's nothing canon established, we could use Pony Days?
>>43664551 (me)A lot of good suggestions to update the lyrics so far, anons! I'm trying to think up something to replace the "and drama makes it all complete" line, as another anon said, the drama line kinda dates it, we need something timeless. So far I've come up with:>And (you) make it all complete>And anon makes it all complete>And shitposts make it all completeI'm not a lyric writer though, so, maybe these suck, if someone comes up with something better, I am all ears. Once we get this sorted, I'll post the updated lyrics and we can begin getting audio in.
>>43664671Holy AutismUI. How many GB of VRAM does all this use? I need to find a fucking job and upgrade my old PC.

Below are the finalized lyrics unless someone really, really has a problem with it. Please begin sending in clips of you singing. Once I think we have enough, I'll begin the fun of making things in audacity.

>>43664558Please don't feel you need to rush anything out devanon. No one's gonna fault you for not getting an update out every new thread.
>>43664781The point of a sale team is to sell a product that doesn't exist.
>>43664792I was more talking about luddites who claim AI is zero work.
>>43664653Yes, you can.I actually play this way, it is more natural for me.
>>43664857it's another tool, both ends of the extreme are wrong. yes, I am very intelligent.luddite is a retarded term
>>43664788we're missing one syllable for the final line but otherwise I like it
>>43664869Did you know we have the very best maaaares!In other news, spent the whole day with Starlight discussion how to launch Trixie to the Moon from a cannon that is fired from a cannon (two-stage cannon).Trixie wasn't impressed, Luna had a polite chuckle, Starlight agreed to start a new cult with me.
>>43664863I care.
>>43664869The way I see it, it's gonna be kinda scuffed no matter what, may as well embrace it a bit.
>>43664653>My headset broke recently.Stop raging over video games, bro.
>>43664895Give him a break, his waifu friendzoned him
Kinda new to GitHub. If there's a new version out, must I download back the whole game or will it auto update itself
>>43664927An auto-updater was released with v0.0.4, so after a final reinstall of the newest version of the game you will never have to reinstall again, hopefully.
v0.0.5 + v0.0.6-maredev patch notes>Tiny updates (under 1 MB)On 0.0.4 or 0.0.5 (Windows/Linux): open the pause menu and press Update. It downloads in a second and the game restarts. Don't want the updater? Grab the zip/tar.gz from the release page and put the .pck inside next to HomeEquestria.pck, replacing the old one. New players: get 0.0.4 first, then update. Quest stays on 0.0.4 this time.>Smaller, faster updatesFixes now ship as small patches instead of a whole 3 GB download, so expect them more often.v0.0.5-maredev>Longer daysDay length setting goes up to 12 real hours per in-game day now (Settings > Day length), if you want. Default is still 60. >Trixie's showShe opens with a speech before the curtain. Everypony near the stage shuts up and watches, and they actually face the stage now. Acts run longer, with a line from her between each.>FixesPonies watching a show don't stand up and sit down every 30 seconds anymore.Sleeping ponies keep their eyes closed. They used to sleep with eyes open from far away and snap them shut when you walked up.Ponies can find Sweet Apple Acres. They used to walk off in the opposite direction. "The farm", "the orchard", "the barn" and "Applejack's house" all work.Apple family talking about Granny, Winona, who aren't added, and nonexistent rooms. No more "go to your room" or "I'll be in the kitchen". Ponies in general stop inventing family, pets and rooms.Ponies who share a house choose a bed as their own forever. Furniture you place no longer stops the house's own furniture from showing up. Couches place again.Fluttershy's door and lamp fixed.Fluttershy's cutie mark fixed. Updates now save VR/Desktop choice. v0.0.6-maredev>KnockingRight click a closed front door to knock. If you haven't installed v0.0.4 in it's entirety, this won't work. This is how updates will be handled from now on.

>>43664970I did write a lot of this myself, but remembering every single bug fix is a hassle, nonny. I also like to post every minute bug that was fixed because it's helpful for archival, and for players to understand what might break. >hey it says you fixed this but i tested it and it broke!
>>43664975Posting patchnotes is a good thing, as is them being detailed, but I see at least 6 terrible claude'isms in that post which is why I, from one claudewrangler to another, really recommend you to run that skill over any user facing text.
Anyone else getting this error? This spams it every second or so btw, game crashes after I open my eyes on this new save.Idk why it happens though.

Where can I see which version it's currently updated to? Would be nice to have a text with something like: "You have the newest/an outdated version (V.x.x.x)" then I'd know if it's updated.
>>43665006The Winter Moon Celebration should be a thing on Dec 21st since it's the Winter Solstice.>inb4 it's fanonYeah, yeah... I know... I just want Luna to have her special day too...
So I'm retarded and can't get past this part. I press J, click Twilight, then press J again but nothing happens. Is something suppose to happen?
>>43665022Luna’s special day is Nightmare Night where she comes to town to try to scare you and the ponies
>>43665023I found that I sometimes had to walk a step towards her before she’d say something.
>>43664990 (me)New Version fixed it! So nevermind!
>>43665023You DO have your AI hooked up, right anon?
>>43665042>You can play without it, but you'll just have a bunch of silent maresI guess I took this way too literally. Thought I could walk around Ponyville just to have a look around first.
>>43665051You can, just choose the option to pass the intro when NEW GAME
>>43665051You can. Select the option to begin at the Golden Oak library. The everfree is a tutorial which requires AI to get through it.
Me and Minuette totally breaking into Fluttershy's cottage while she was away, and petting all her (imaginary) animals.
>>43665060>all those fucking tagsNow you Anons can take a little bit of a peek as to how intricately the game functions, kek.
>>43665054>>43665055Thanks anons. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't a bug.
The Hayburger is fucked when I started shift mare that show up just turn around or just stand outside when they get to the entrance
>>43665080You smell, clearly.
>>43664563There's a bit of an issue where the game misinterprets one of the ponies requesting the player join them for an activity as a demand for the pony to follow the player. For example:>Rarity: I'm going to the library to see twilight, walk with me dear.>Player: SureAt this point Rarity will be set to follow you, rather then the expected behavior of the horse making its way to the library allowing you the opportunity to follow her.This also seems to break shit, as the model will treat wherever you take her as the library, with her suddenly hallucinating the presence of Twilight regardless of where she is in the over world. She will also become stuck and simply sit wherever you've decided the library is forever.
v0.0.7 patch notesAdded what version you have to the homepage along with a check updates button to the "Updates" tab. >0.0.4 and below, please read!AFTER THIS UPDATE, I WILL START PUSHING PATCHES WITH FOUR NUMBERS for better version managing, i.e v0.0.7.1. So PLEASE UPDATE! 0.0.4 does not have the capacity to receive updates with 4 numbers. If I have already released v0.0.7.1, your updater will fail. Please manually install the .pck and you won't have to again. If you're on 0.0.3 or older, reinstall 0.0.4, then update. Thank you! This is getting a little bit confusing, but I promise the kinks will work themselves out with time.
>>43665140That looks good. Appreciate you doing all these kind of little updates, even if they seem like small things they really improve the system overall especially for new players and people figuring things out.
>>43665062I keep my local model's kobold window open on my second monitor all the time to see what it's (slowly) doing.You get used to it. I don't even see the code. All I see is: Bon Bon, Big Mac, Redheart...But seriously, while interesting, running a kinda dim local model and also getting to see all the repeating workings as well as the hidden little thoughts of the ponies does take a smidge of the magic away.I try to mainly look while it's gennig to see where it's at, make sure it doesn't collide with the "memory" prompts, or fail to actually send the pony's messages.
>>43665062It's great that everything is open source, but also players will always optimize the fun out of anything. Hope that this doesn't devolve into optimizing the variables.That being said, since it looks like there's a mood value is the AI choosing from a predetermined list or could it generate any string there? I can see pros and cons to either approach.Will pony moods change due to factors other than the player's actions? That could be a way to make the world feel more alive. And it could be nice to cheer up sad ponies and such.
I made a green about my experience with version 0.0.3Playing as semi-realistic, semi-comedic human AnonDesktop modeAI Model used: Claude Haiku 5.5Day 1.>Immediately freak out after waking up in the Everfree>Twilight finds me, scream at her to tell me what the fuck is going on>She tries to calm me down and explains she needs to get me somewhere safer>Howling in the distance>Tell her okay, and she teleports me to the library>I am stunned a little by the teleport and the existence of magic>Ask her if she can use her magic to send me back to Earth>She doesn't know how, says she needs to write a letter to Princess Celestia for help>Just as I'm about to ask who Celestia is, Rarity suddenly bursts into the library>Ask Twilight who the hell this new pony is supposed to be>Rarity is offended, immediately calls my outfit trash>Tell her that my suit is high fashion where I come from>At the same time, Rainbow Dash shows up at the library too>Rarity continues to trash my style, "such dreadful seams, darling">Dash backs her up, tells me I look like a lumpy pillowcase>Argue that they aren't even wearing any clothes, so how would they know?>They just keep telling I look like shit>Decide to ignore the two new mares and ask Twilight if Celestia can get me back to Earth or not>Twilight says if anyone can, it's Celestia, she raises the sun>Tell Twi that raising the sun is impossible, the planet just spins on its axis>Twilight gets a little incredulous and tells me I'm wrong>Rainbow backs her up and mentions that pegasi can control the weather and walk on clouds>This is all too much for poor Anon"This is insane. This is all fucking insane.

Sleep there any way

So I might do that and start a new game with a different AI model.
>>43665282>claude haiku 5.5 Sounds about right for such a dumb, nu-claude model, but it shouldn't be doing stuff like that. Please send me your logs by going to Support and following the instructions within. Upload to https://pone.rs/I'll take a look at all your logs, exactly what went wrong, and why the context broke down over time. I was worried this might happen as more and more facts get piled on.
>>43664423Checkers and chess mod.https://u.pone.rs/zmoxcyfu.zipI won't push a PR right now because it's still in beta, so don't hesitate to report problems.This mod lets you play checkers and chess with the ponies. They all have their own levels, and even for ponies of the same level, they have different openings and play according to their personalities.There's a board in Twilight's house.https://u.pone.rs/nceqtbnk.pngA public board near the fountain.https://u.pone.rs/zcxcwarc.pngAnd you can buy a portable board for 30 bits too.https://u.pone.rs/besflnze.pnghttps://u.pone.rs/kjxivgtu.pngYou can pause it and call a pony to play. Aim at the small side piece to take it back.Here's me bullying a filly at checkers.
>>43665472For the sake of people who just want to play chess with mares casually, add an average lower tier that starts at ~350-500 ELO, and one for ~800-950.
>>43665472Awesome. Can't wait to try this out. Does it work in VR as well?
>>43665472Add a vibrating buttplug that I can buy to help me win
>>43665486>Does it work in VR as well?It should; you can move the pieces and grab the box of checkers to switch, for instance.But I don't have a headset, so it's mostly theory.
>>43665472Also, I forgot to say, but the ponies know about them. So if you ask Twilight to play chess, she should come to her table, for instance.
Do ponies actually start talking to you by themselves in this game or do you always have to initiate conversation yourself?
>>43665390
>>43665405Perhaps I am retarded, but I can't find where "Support" is. It's not a button on the main menu. Also, I am on version 0.0.4 and the auto-update settings are on, but I don't get a prompt to update or anything.
>>43665594Force an update check. Delete update_state.cfg from your save folder to force a check on next load.Windows: %APPDATA%\home-equestria-public\, Linux: ~/.local/share/home-equestria-public/The update will appear when you load into the world and open the pause menu. Right now, it waits 6 hours to check the github for the update prompt. For others on 0.0.4 the same applies, so try it if you don't get an update prompt.
>>43665612Thanks. I got it updated and now I'm on the latest.Here's the logs:https://u.pone.rs/wynuzyis.zip
>>43665640Aha. I see. According to this report of your logs, pony's thoughts never ended and their "on their mind" things never went away. I'm building a complete overhaul to the love system that works on level-up tiers, and splits between platonic and romantic. I'm also fixing this issue. Too many people are reporting that their love meter doesn't go up, or that it feels too restrictive, or something.The new love system has to be tested entirely by all of (You).
>>43665390>pear obsessed dashie
>>43665659>pony's thoughts never ended and their "on their mind" things never went away.Makes sense. It explains why Twilight kept stressing over the letter too. If what they keep in mind is controlled by AI, it might be good to have a hardcoded fallback just in case thoughts get stuck for days on end.

Alright. Final Solution to the Update Question, I just made a universal, version agnostic first-time setup launcher that just installs the latest version of the game. https://github.com/homedevanon/home-equestria/releases/latestThe OP link works too. Just open the exe, press install, game works. This is my first time making a video game, and figuring out what works and what doesn't is a real-time activity, so please bear with me.

got absolutely bamboozled by Pinkie. Trying to see if ponies can give you bits, doesn't seem like they can at the moment.

oh no bros, I made one joke about turning angel into rabbit stew and now she won't even talk to me.

>>43665966Based. Fuck that little shit.
>>43665966I somehow don't think you need to worry her doing anything. This is Fluttershy after all. The downside is now the entirety of Ponyville will hate you for upsetting Fluttershy.

So are the AI voices not working right now or am I fucking up? Share links for Gradio are down but I'm a newfag with this so I'm not sure if I'm looking at it wrong.
A red flowing cape would be nice to have as I'm going to announce myself as the Horse KingSpeaking about Angel, Winona and Granny mentioned earlier, would it make sense to give the AI an excuse as to why they're not there, or do you just RP along?
>>43665966The key is to not joke so she knows you're actually a beastmaxxed apex predator and not a creepy faggot jealous of a rabbit.

Holy shit, don't let Sombra, Glimmer, and Diamond Tiara get into an argument. The amount of combined stubbornness, sarcasm, and ignorance (with the fact they can't kill one another) is too kino.>Try to give Sombra a hayburger>Sombra: A king does not feast on compressed weeds offered by an insect.>Glimmer: To be fair, I tried one. It mostly tasted like grass and desperation.>Anon: That was my finest quality desperation.>Glimmer: Oh, well, in that case, compliments to the chef. Really captured the terroir of existential dread.>Diamond: Ew. Daddy imports real oats from Trottingham. Who actually buys desperation in a bun?The foals innocently interjecting/inserting themselves and taking things out of context is too fucking cute as well. Three times:>Try ego boosting Trixie and two foals run up and smother her saying how cool her fireworks are, horns flashing in excitement.>Sombra says he's going to turn my new suit to ash and Ruby Pinch runs in between shouting that Anon needs his pants or he'll get cold.>Diamond threatening Sombra that "daddy could buy your silly little shadow kingdom before lunch".Also applebucking is a pain in the ass since all the apples roll down the hill. I'm scared to try this game in VR purely because of this job, my glutes will become indestructible hydraulic presses.
>>43666158Applebucking is a pain in the ass because we can't carry the crates with us and every apple belongs to a specific crate.Once this mechanic is improved, we'll be just fucking every tree and then go down to that ravine and gorge the crates with apuls like mean lean packing machines we are.
>>43666145IDK, probably will get one in time.I play VR and like the idea of having a cape, it looks great Can you make it pony-compatible?
>>43666168As in, for a regular NPC pony or a pony avatar?
>>43664644>>43664675>birthdaysJust have the birthday pony wear a hat for a day, that the AI recognise when it sees it. Leave hosting a party for itself to decide

i know canterlots a few updates away but whos gonna be there? and will you be able to have ponies from other towns interact/know about whats going on? assuming cadance and shining armor will be in canterlot instead of the crystal empire.
>>43666182Not devanon btw. Its possible, but would require a base code change due to how items are handled in the shop. You can buy Trixie's cloak in Rarity's shop, apparently, if you want a pony to be cloaked up.

>>43666158>It mostly tasted like grass and desperation.>Who actually buys desperation in a bun?Is there any reliable way to make an LLM drop its AI-isms? The last time I fucked around with a local model I typed a page worth of do-nots and the distilled journoslop it continued to output made me want to vomit.
>>43666302AI prices will only increase in the following years. They'll probably switch to a model where a household pays for a monthly 20-50 dollar subscription to use an LLM, and a monthly token limit to paying costumers. But using LLMs for free? This is over.
>>43666318>Is there any reliable way to make an LLM drop its AI-isms?Not really.They all have them, but some models are hit harder than others or have isms you'll hate more than others, so the first thing is to find the model that's the least bad for you.Then you can try giving them instructions, and to some degree that can mitigate the isms you dislike most, but you'll never eliminate all of them, and giving too many instructions will bloat everything and worsen the output in other areas.The current best ways to avoid isms are:>PrefillBut it's not usable in-game and wouldn't add much for this specific case anyway. Models with a strong prefill effect are also deprecated and will be killed off eventually.>Context poisoningModels are becoming more and more resistant to this, but basically, the idea is to have a context written in the style you like so the AI tends toward that.Since the game has no editing and also has a ton of necessary backend instructions to make it work correctly, it won't be very effective either.So your best bet is to find the model you find the least bad and try to vary your own inputs and situations a bit, but that won't have a dramatic effect either.
>>43666318Oh, those lines were likely referencing me proclaiming to be the burger flipping king of Ponyville and attempting to force feed every visible mare with hayburgers the day prior.
>>43666338Body fat slider mod incoming
>>43666338Anon is mostly talking about the>tasting like desperationpart, which is something some LLMs like to spam a bit too much>you smell of sweat and desperation>it looks like X and despair!and things like that. There are sentence structures, word choices, rhythms, etc., that you tend to identify after a while of using them, which is why the initial exposure when you don't is so magical at first. So don't try to analyze this too deeply and just enjoy.
more fluttershy!
>>43666354>Home: Equestria - Feeder EditionFat pone are disgusting
>>43666389>>43666354Someone in an earlier thread mentioned size changing. Actually changing the body proportions on the models seems like it would be a lot of work, but a simple scale multiplier up or down seems like it'd be a lot easier.Devanon, grow/shrink spells or potions? Now that bits have a purpose having some potions with whatever effects are the easiest to implement that could be used on anon or ponies would be fun. Maybe for Halloween/Nightmare Night a spooky ghost potion that's just a transparency effect and no clip if that's easy to do? Even if the effects are simple just the fact that these would exist would make the world feel more magical.
>>43666406Most of the everfree already has noclip
>>43665472I lost against a filly...
>>43666417>>43665472If ponies actually teach anons to play chess better that would be amazing.Does the AI model get passed a history that includes wins/losses? It would be funny to see other ponies acknowledge anon lost against a filly, or having like an ongoing competition against Twilight.
>>43664423How do you actually talk via text if you disable speech-to-text? If I press the push to talk button, it shows the icon of a microphone and thinks I'm still trying to use a mic. Shouldn't there be a text field instead?If it matters, I'm running a local LLM.

Hey Devanon! Love the updates and all the new content, but the trust/love gain feels a bit too fast now (got 40 love points in just an hour). Dialing back the speed would make the progress feel more rewarding. Otherwise great work as always!
Output Console Mod (Shift+X to open and close)And Smallest of Dates (For V.0.0.8) - Filly Dating Mod can be found here:https://mega.nz/folder/v6hkgD7a#JKqAoV1PIdrHbRoR4E1NoAI'm doing more mods soon probably.
>>43666514So it is. I swear I hit every button on my keyboard trying to find it.I feel like a fucking idiot, but thanks.
>>43666522It works in levels now. When you get to 100, it'll reset, and the next level will take 2.5x as much "XP" to level up again. I'll try to make that more obvious.
>>43666539Ah okay, I see, nevermind then, you are already 3 Steps ahead
>>43665323Kino
>>43666539Idea for a future update: add house radios, or a portable one you can buy with bits, that play random tracks from your local Music folder so you can listen alongside your favorite pone. The pone could even react to the genre based on the file name or ID3 tags, which would avoid the extra cost of analyzing the audio itself.
>>43666572I love it. I'll add it. Working on v0.1.8, first iteration of the spa, letter writing, radios, and various bug fixes.
>>43666094>>43666135We need some King Haggard drip.
>>43666406>grow/shrink spells or potions?Hm having a mechanic where you can change into Human/pony/femoid via potion might be interesting especially if you want to keep your relationships, but I'm not sure how much it will affect the AI.
>>43666536Tbf it's not listed in the keymapping. Took me like five minutes to figure it out.
>>43666539>>43666522Making the functionality clearer to players is a good thing, but don't fret the pacing too much because every player is going to want something different and even the same player could want different paces at different times. Just a default that you think is good and letting the player tweak the pacing with a multiplier (either above 1 for faster or below 1 for slower) is probably the closest you'll ever get to satisfying everyone.
>>43666606Oh listing this would be an easy add that would help a lot, just a heads up for >>43666577
>>43666534Nice!
>>43666595Noooooo transformations
How many animations do the pony models have? Making some animations that all the models could use like rearing up or such and allowing the AI to call the animations at appropriate points might be a nice way to make the characters feel more alive. Since all the models are so similar I'm guessing that one animation could be used for every pony character?
>>43665006Since Christmas is fast approaching, I'd love it if snow and decorations were added in time for Hearth's warming. Being able to celebrate the holiday with mares would be amazing.

Being able to full-on pause the game has been a powerful boon for me, running a local model on a weak PC.It lets the cute mares think about what to say, in the stopped time, without both themselves and the whole town walking away before they are ready to speak.The clouds keep moving even in Za Warudo mode, but I'm pretty sure the game's daytime clock does pause, so no more short conversations that take all day!Also Spike sus amogus
Anyone tried having multiple romances going yet? Like side-chick style?
>>43666534How can an offboarder namefag be so based?
>>43667177im attempting to do a run with fluttershy and rarity as my side-chick. but i occasionally try to trick the retard to consummate with me. it never works though.
>>43667304i forgot to attach this
Twilight! I got stuck behind your fireplace and I can't get out! Help me! HEEEEELP!
>>43666958I only watched up to the end of season 7 once and I don't recall her at all.
>>43667390Can you shout in the game? You know, like a mode where NPCs can hear you from farther away.
>>43667390Would be nice to have a “I’m stuck option” that would get you unstuck.
>>43667173>Being able to full-on pause the gameYou can do that? That's incredibly useful, as I still haven't found how whisper/speech-to-text is supposed to be enabled in the game. No more writing replies only for ponies to walk away before I can press enter!
>>43667406You can unfortunately not write in the caht box while the game is paused.But I get past this hurdle by writing my text replies in a text file on my second monitor and copying it once my local model is done chugging and I'm ready to unpause.The game accepts Ctrl+v paste inputs into the text box. It also does both Ctrl+c and Ctrl+x cutting and pasting in the same box, in case you want to save what you already typed into the box to catch up to a pony who's walked away!
>>43667412i do the same thing but in discord.
>>43667403>>43667390Is there an easy way to toggle no clip in game? A console menu with all the standard 3D game options like that would be good.
>>43667412Following up with this Devanon, being able to type when paused would be nice. Even better would be a "freeze time when typing/talking" option.
>>43667390She's too busy reading her book
is anyone else getting this error when trying to load MOSS?
>>43667523It says right there, you hit the usage limit. Google doesn't give free infinite resources. I took me about 2h30 hours to hit the limit. I believe you need to wait for a day after that.
>>43667645is this included in the payment with openrouter and deepseek? or do we have to pay jewgle too for collab usage? I seem to have not hit this limit yet but I have not had a huge amount of uninterrupted time to spend playing yet so I am unsure
What would actually be nice to have are some desktop user animation for anon's model, walk animation, Jump and all that, I think that would really help the immersion, if your shadow and you aren't just static :)
I'm excited to try this setup out, I have a headless 4090 24gb (they both fit with ~2gb to spare) and just tested these models over the LAN:| LAN Nemotron STT, BF16 | 0.084 s || GemBrain 31B, llama.cpp reply | 2.24 s |I got real nervous in the game last night and the long latency didn't help (I was trying cloud inference with nanogpt and the default whisper model). I'll do a screen recording to see how it goes in game, but I was really impressed with the speed in a CLI harness
v0.0.9-maredev patch notes>Letters addedWriting letters to mares! On desktop, type with the paper open. In VR you touch the quill to the paper and talk, "scratch that" crosses out the last sentence. "Dear {PONY NAME}" at the top chooses who it gets sent to. Stand outside and hold click for a second and Derpy flies down grabs it and fucks off. The pony actually reads it and is sent a prompt as though it was said face-to-face, so some shit like "Meet me at Sugarcube Corner at 9 tomorrow" should work. The market sells paper and quills. >Spa addedRing the bell at the counter and three ponies are chosen. You massage and file their hooves. Pegasi then sit in the wing nook for a wing massage, preening and plucking stray feathers. 10 bits per station, wings are 4 plus 1 per feather. It's very rough right now and the experience will be refined in future updates.There is a bug where you might get stuck after ringing the bell. Just relaunch to fix it. It'll be fixed in v0.0.10>Relationship levelsNo more 0-100 bars. Friendship goes Stranger, Acquaintance, Friend, Good Friend, Best Friend, Blood Brothers, Kindred Soul. Love goes Crush, New Couple, Marefriend/Coltfriend, Head Over Hooves, Soulmates. The bar fills to the next level and resets, each level takes longer than the last. On a level up hearts and her new title pop over her head and she knows it. Old saves keep whatever level they earned.>BoopImproved desktop boop experience and animation. >Timestop while typingFor local anons: Settings > World "Ponies freeze when I talk or type", "Ponies freeze when thinking." >FixesPonies stay longer after silence 50s -> 5mRainbow Dash doesn't fly in loops 2 feet off the ground anymore.Golden Oak: no more falling into the hollow treetop. Stuck anyway? Pause menu > Support > Get unstuck.Ponies lifting own hooves don't think you held their hoof. Update is available in your games; launch and go to Settings > Updates, "Check for Update" to pull it.
>>43667792Continued to be impressed about how many little improvements you make based on comments in the thread and how quick you turn them around. You're really good at this devanon!
>>43667792Yes, it is very kind of you to even add nice features for stubborn "local model on a toaster" mules such as me, anon. Thank you.
>>43667792Sounds like a wonderful update
>>43667792Oh, also want to chime in on how clever it was to make the letter writing need in-game paper and quills and have them sold at the market. Although players being able to pull unlimited letters out of nowhere might be more convenient, having it actually be part of the setting is much more immersive and makes the world feel more alive. The previous linking to one of the "Pony Animal Crossing will never exist" feels even more relevant because Animal Crossing did it the same way for similar reasons. You're doing a good job slowly building up a living world here bit by bit.
Working on something, that may or may not be your thing.Far from done, so far piss works, I have a bladder meter that randomizes at start, so everpony goes at a different time. The Meter fills up over time. If you give your pony a drink it'll add + 10 to the bladder bar on instant.I'm still getting the following to work;Current Sound effect is not working with the sound volume settings yet and the Visual effect is still misplaced on the Pony bodys.I'm probably gonna get the first mod version out in the following days. (Not adding pony pussy with this mod, just gonna say that.)
>>43667792>”Meet me at Sugarcube Corner at 9 tomorrow" should work.Finally I have a way to get Dash out of her house.
>>43667871>read a banger update from devanon>press update before i run to the store and go to bed>pic relatedi fucking hate it here
>>43667866Actually, my main inspiration for that was this one animal crossing decompilation analysis where letters like a.a.a.a.a.a.a would get -300 points but A.A.A.A.A.A.A.A would get 5000 or something. I wanted to add a similar system, but since we have AI that can dynamically judge your letters, they'll affect how the ponies see you with no need for a rigid scoring system. I think the "Animal Crossing but ponies" synopsis is kind of exactly what I'm going for. That 2014 anon was really given the gift of prophesy...>>43667839>>43667851Thank you for the kind words! I am just shocked at how few issues there have been. Launch seems to be going quite well, besides the kinks to work out.>>43667871Speaking of kinks... God almighty, offboarder-kun. I do not like these mods you're making. I won't stop you or anything but... let it be known I disapprove. I at least respect the fact that you're actually making them instead of begging someone here - or me - to do it. >>43667877Kek
>>43667878Fair.
>>43667878Bladder aside, seeing that did bring to mind what do you think of ponies having the typical hunger/thirst/tired meters or such? Is there already something like that going on behind the scenes so ponies go for a hayburger or apple when they're hungry, or is it all controlled by a time schedule? Taking a marefriend out for food when she's hungry or carrying her to bed when she's tired would be nice.
>>43667888Checked, and I agree! I'll add a "sleep" and "hunger" meter. I do feel as though feeding your mares has no consequence at the moment.
>>43667871It's just for realism, right?
>>43667900If that's what you think, then it probably is what you think.
>>43667871Why?
>>43667792Love the spa! Pegasi having a special wing massage is a fun detail. Maybe something unique for unicorns and earth ponies too? Polishing a unicorn's horn and massaging an earth pony's haunches?
>>43667871LMAO based
>>43667666This has no relation to openrouter or your LLM of choice (in your case Deepseek). You can use colab for free but it's limited, you can pay for more usage if you wish. If the message of the picture shows it means that for some reason (less available servers, running other collab projects etc) you have hit the limit. I suggest just being pacient, after you hit the limit just play the game with the TTS, it has less wainting time and less setup.
Did a screen recording with this setup >>43667782and immediately Dr.Caballeron assumes the position?!
>>43667971Touch the horse. Do it now.
>>43667888>carrying her to bed when she's tired would be nice.From what I found while working on the bridal carry, ponies are assigned a bedtime each day that can range from around 7 PM to 3 AM. Once it's their bedtime, they immediately head to bed unless they’re being held or following you.If you bridal carry a mare who's comfortable with you past her bedtime, she will eventually fall asleep in your arms, so long as you're not sprinting or jumping around. You can tuck her into bed once she's tired or asleep.
>>43667882anon i have to ask, where were u enjoying poni before u found /mlp/?
>>43667977>>43667971Touch the horse, do it of course!Really though nice recording. Very funny to see just the kind of shenanigans that happen, glad to see more people posting gameplay in the thread.
>>43667983Normal Stuff Youtube, etc.Lewd stuff, Derpibooru and I talked about lewd pony stuff with friends often.With this game I found this "sub"-fandom I guess?I like it here tho, even tho I'm a newfag.

>>43667985I was hoping to be able to post the full thing, but there's a couple problems:- didn't have audio hooked up to OBS correctly, so it's all silent- flat monitor view wasn't full screen, so desktop buddy got in the way along w/titlebar etc.I'll definitely try and get some good recordings to post soon, and hopefully optimize conversation delay (and get a TTS model running too! I think I should be able to fit one in)>>43667997lmao>>43667998yeah geez, I told him to go dig a hole and find some cool stuff somewhere else

>>43668024ayy devanon, my inventory shows up with my palm down (you can see in the vid when I pat his rump, gay)That confused me when I did the intro in Everfree, the text said palm up I think
>>43668028It's kind of figure out the motion to pull it up and then once you do you've got it. Sometimes it'll trigger palm down OR palm up, it's a fucking mystery how it works at allBy the way, you don't have to wait for me to reveal myself by namefagging, I'm always around and replying even if I post anonymously (UNLIKE SOME BOARD PROJECTS I COULD MENTION)
>>43668033Mention them
>>43668038... I was bluffing ... I actually don't know any right now ... You've caught me ...
How hard would it be to make a custom pony model for the game? Do they all share the same animations? Is there like a base body with eyes that gets recolored, and then stapling on the mane, tail and cutie mark, and horn if unicorn or wings if pegasus?
>>43667792Fantastic work man, you're pumping these out so fast, I hope you aren't pushing yourself too hard. Should say though, I don't think the get unstuck button is working for me, just keeps saying "Nothing to move right now" and isn't teleporting me to the nearest door.>>43667871Ah yes, the three central pillars of Equestria
I need a list of the ponies that are in the game.
>>43667990>>43668014WE ARE *THE* FANDOM NIGGATHE FANDOM WAS BORN ON 4CHAN
>>43668067Thank you. I'm pushing myself a little harder than I'm able to keep up with, but I know as development slows down and the initial hype relieves the pressure valve, there will be less to work on as I focus on one big feature at a time, giving myself time and room to work while players have a breadth of stuff to do while I work without getting bored.
>>43668069Sure, Anon, that's not a weird thing to ask for at all. Here you go!https://u.pone.rs/ijavzufj.txt
>>43668097NTA, but way more than I thought.
Yo Devanon.You have thought of everything from getting not getting this project C&D right? I do not want to see another project get canned before it even gets to v1.0
>>43668126The worst case for a C&D is it happening before the game's code comes out and before it's playable, both of which are milestones we have passed already.
>>43667871Are you thinking of adding anything else or just piss?
>>43668156Working on just a piss system, so far.It's going to be a piss only mod. I'm currently still fixing the animation. Sound Effect is fixed so far and applies it's volume correctly.I'm currently also working on ponies actually deciding (via. Ai) if they want to look for a private spot to do it (which is just a randomized spot) or just do it where they currently are. This is planned, but not sure yet;Ponies in town conversations should be able to go peeing together, Idk why; Just thought it would fit.If you have any mod Ideas tho, just reply to my posts, I'm vibecoding these, but I try my best to test em' in every scenario.
>>43667871You madman, you actually fucking did it. Fucking keking my arse off right now.>>43667937Filing a unicorn's horn would be perfect, like in green isn't your colour.
>>43668097Would you consider adding Cheerilee in the future? I think it would be really nice if the foals could actually go to class in the schoolhouse, and I know there are some cheerileefags who would appreciate it.
>>43668278Woah, what the shit? Why isn't Cheerilee in the game? I could swear she was in the development builds! I'll put out a patch right away.
>>43668278>Cheerilee is added>She and the foals have school-specific schedules now>Devanon adds actual classes and subjects>You, the giant alien man, can be in her class too>Devanon is a little shit and adds genuine tests and quizzesImagine Cheerilee announcing that you, an adult, got an F on a math test in front of a class full of kids

Phonetic lip sync should probably be default :oI was wondering where the lag in conversations was coming from after optimizing everything else
>>43668326>not understanding that electrons, neutrinos, electromagnetic fields, the Higgs field, and the carriers of the weak nuclear force behave and interact according to specific mathematical relationships and that these allowed interactions and their strengths are determined by respective fields, masses, coupling constants, and field symmetries
>>43668371
>>43668350Yeah devanon, if you haven't looked into this yet it's something Mantella does for Skyrim to speed up the text to speech for AI genned dialog.
>>43668350I'll look into this and patch it with Cheerilee.
>>43668180>piss onlyDamn. Mares have other needs too.
It's insane that we have a piss mod before a sex mod. Where are the sexchads at to mog the pissfags?
>>43668480I know, sadly I'm not into that, not gonna make it, if someone's willing to do it, they should do it.
Someone earlier was showing how AI could turn a 2D image into a 3D model, so a bunch of items from the show could be made into objects in game. What would be the most meaningful ones?Not specific to the show, but some simple physics objects like a ball could be good. Having a bouncy ball would probably result in a bunch of silly shenanigans that would be good for clips, and any kind of interactable object could let you play more games with mares like the chess mod. The advantage there with something generic like a ball is the actual game can be left up to the player and the AI rather than having to code any particular game rules or anything.
it was fun, but i'm quickly losing interest due to the ai still being too limited and some jank
>>43664563I'm having an issue. I can't buy anything in flat screen Every time I go up to some shop and click on the item, it just doesn't work
>>43668455Here's a recording with a local stack:https://odysee.com/HomeEquestria-Twilight:13e8315b48ea00e28e39728a381245e73d6f5018I'll try a smaller LLM so I can fit MOSS and see how that does

>>43668818Explain?
>>43668878another one, with Rocinante X 12B and the MOSS TTS. It's an RP model so it couldn't handle the required format most of the time. The first interaction with Big Mac was a comedy of errorshttps://odysee.com/@MLP:2/big-mac-tiara-rocinante:2
>>43667871>filly update >piss update Then I guess the guro update is just around the corner, if you're like the rest of them.
>>43667792>spaHow about painting hooves with nail polish? There could be some variety available, from clear to colors, that ponies could choose from like the menu at hayburger joint? Then they could wear it for a day or something.
>>43667792>spaAdd the ability to put lotion on their hooves, and by lotion I mean my cum.

>>43669010both the rudimentary 3d and the writing of newer ai models take me out of it and make me less immersed than i should be. past the wow effect, my immersion breaks quickly, i find everything around the pure interaction with ponies more of a bother than anything, and even the interaction itself isn't great due to slop writingthat's not on the dev, there was a ton of work in what he did. i just thought i'd be more into it than i ended up being
>>43669252aw, that's beautiful anon>>43669254for me conversation latency was killing it for me, but I'm drilling into that right now along with some other ideas.Curious what model were you using for the 'slop'?
>>43669252Soul
>>43669275>what model were you using for the 'slop'?argon, 3.8 flash, opus 5.5, opus 4.6. didn't try deepseek but i doubt it would do muchi've just been chagging for a while, so the ai writing started to get tiring and predictableit's not the game itself, even on the rare occasion i boot silly now, i need to directormax a lot and create whole scenarios from scratch to get output i'm decently happy with
>>43669290Those aren't models to sneeze at, but I guess if you're familiar with them I could see it being old and predictable.I wonder if anyone has trained an MLP text LoRA on fanfic (and or) /mlp/ greens. I haven't really done any /chag/ stuff myself, more into the tech than the art side of things I guess. Played around with some shitposty fanfic with some old 7B local models back in the day and I feel like I'm having the same kind of fun with this now.
>Sunset Shimmer was removedOh no no no no, did we get too cocky?https://u.pone.rs/eqczhncu.mp4Bring back the FiM-appearing bacon PONY in future releases and there will be an end to the horror.
>>43669307Not really. Just like in the show, eqg shit should not be part of Equestria or the real pony fandom.
>>43669304There's a Mistral Nemo finetune that was based on the FimFic archive with a parameter for the score, if I remember correctly.https://huggingface.co/Ada321/Nemo_Pony_2/tree/mainBut that's an old model. I doubt it would do great with H:E, for instance.>>43669290Take a break. These things always get grating after a while, because despite the open-ended and supposedly infinite nature of them, they're still pretty dogshit at creative writing or coming up with great ideas or twists by themselves. You see the limits and patterns quickly, but some of the magic can come back after not using them for a while.
>>43669307I guess some people are into horror games

We NEED the mirror pool for infinite pony.
>>43669334>How to immediately waste all your tokens with one simple trick
>>43669337To be fair, Devanon *could* probably make the mirror pool pones not connected to the LLM, instead using good ol' regular NPC's that wander either a specific path or randomly around, spouting some pre-selected voice lines. Maybe they just select from the "real" pones logs at random.I'm not sure how hard any of that would be, but it may be worth looking into.
>>43669307looooooool well done
No cloaks for pone or Anon yet, running into some gamebreaking bugs. I've got a workaround but its probably best devanon applies the fixes first.>v0.0.9When did that happen?
>>43667024btw this still happens almost everytime a pony follows you down this path.
>>43669354>not bridal carrying pone over the Disappearing Bridge. Skill issue
>>43669317useful, thank, even if only for it's link to https://huggingface.co/datasets/Amo/FimFic_Omega_V3I'll see if I can come up with something interesting, no promises since my previous text LoRA experiments haven't been great.
Wait, can you romance a mare who's already married? If so, how does it work?
>>43667971What a faggot
>>43667871>>43669307I didn't check on the thread for a day and now there's a filly dating mod, a piss mod and an eqg mod. Offboarders and barbiefags are being more productive than we are. Is this the end?

>>43669473ABSOLUTE CUNGADERO, ANON:wheeze:
>>43667792How do I advance relationship? Every time i inquire, they say we should go on a real date, but basically nothing happens around this mechanic.
>>43669317AI Models will continue to improve over time, which will basically be updates to the game without devanon having to do anything. Same reason to go back to EquestrAI / Pony Pony Paradise (the /chag/ VN) when there's a new generation of models, the experience keeps improving.That being said, the more open interactions with ponies that the AI can use in some way the better since that means more content and preventing the "I've done everything" feeling. Things like being able to pay bits and get bits are great examples of that because they're so open-ended that can support a million different things with the AI model.
Deepseek users, if the prices will go up suddenly, what model will you use instead?
>>43669604>AI Models will continue to improve over timeVery debatable in the case of our particular usage. While they got smarter, the range of ideas or proactive actions they can take on their own declined, for instance. Then you have the random slopping of prose like Kimi K3 to 3.1 or the Opus 4.7–5 family compared to 4.6; 5.5 got better, but still not that great.The 3D models and the optimization of the game should get better and better, though.>>43669617It's an open-source model with a lot of providers. If they all decided to raise the price somehow, it would have to be some sort of global event that also affects other models, realistically.In the same price range, you have Mimo Pro, which can be fun too, and GLM 5.3 Flash, which is below.
>>43669604>AI Models will continue to improve over timeYeah, unfortunately like >>43669654 said, not so much for AI mare lovemaking purposes. They're all aiming for ""safe"" corpo coding assistant sloppa machines, making them worse at creative writing and more censored. And then to make it worse, they kill off the earlier ones that were better at it.
>>43669323He's right
>>43669654>>43669676This is exactly why local support is important. Even if local models can't compete with corporate models on size, at least they can be uncensored and might be able to compete with creativity. With general tech improvements and better algorithms and such hopefully local models will get better too.

>>43668097>Flitter in Ponyville, but Cloud Chaser in CloudsdaleThis is killing my autism, devnigga. You have to keep them together.
>>43669752Every time I've talked to Flitter, she's actually been trying to talk to a phantom of her, wanting to get her input on the situation, like "wouldn't you say, Cloud Chaser?" after most statements she makes.Some times she even says something like: "Oh. I mean, if she were here I mean, haha." when she realizes she isn't actually there.Kinda sad.
>>43669307Why did they suddenly start dancing? Anyway, more effort in your shitpost than I expected from a barboid, that's for sure.
>>43669759 (me)>Every time I've talked to Flitter.I should have said: "THE FEW times I've talked to Flitter". Just to be more precise.
>>43669654>The 3D modelsI'm impressed by what these new models can do, even if it's still not perfect.Here, for instance, is something I tried with Opus a while ago. It even placed the tree from Look Before You Sleep.I might make my own 3D Ponyville for fun.
Devanon, you dead mon?>>43669782I'm surprised it didn't complain about copywrite stuff
>>43669790>I'm surprised it didn't complain about copyright stuffThey're pretty lax for fan projects or "personal project" stuff. I've used them for fucking around but also to translate obscure games that aren't in line for near-human fan-translation projects, and they don't give a fuck. Even Claude or GPT.We're in an era where they're also pretty good at decompiling existing projects and software, which is why you see a ton of slop projects being developed.Right now may be a good moment if you want to do some personal stuff. I can't see them keeping the models this lax with future better versions. That would kill some big software companies, and I don't see them just letting that happen.

>>43669424it's only when the map first loads thank goodness, FPS isn't *great* otherwise though (usually 30-60fps). I snuck into bed with Twilight and noticed the star pattern on the blanket was geometry instead of being a texture so I'm sure there's A LOT of things to optimize to get FPS up, but luckily it doesn't make me feel sick or my sessions are short enough to not mess with my head
>>43670161>Tail constantly fluttering like thatGood thing there's no VR smell yet
>>43669307Fucking hell, Anon, kek. I respect the shit out of it. You've forced my hoof... I'll re-add Shimmy pony.
>>43669726... nothing changed; he's still right
>>43670083it might not be there, I've been battling models hallucinating ablities ("Sure I can fly you to Sugar Cube corner anon!") and people and places:Nurse Redheart invented a doctor named "Prince" and was walking me to the clinic which might not exist.Then I gave up on the clinic and talked to Aloe the spa pony and she invited me to get a massage in a place that probably doesn't exist either? I haven't dug around to see if they're locations yet>>43670177don't give the brapfags ideas
>>43670086Kek did you expect anything else?
everytime I press play and select a location the game freezes and reboots the computer, am i retarded and set it up wrong or am i just a poorfag and need a better pc
Why can none of you set the TTS up correctly?
>>43670197I actually found the Spa in the meantime, it´s directly next to the Hayburgers, it´s just not named properly in the game yet.The hoof filling worked fine, but, at least in vr, the Hoof Massage stayed at 0% for me, I´ll try later again
>>43669790Good morning, nonny.>>43669812I didn't do this. >>43669955Cool!>>43669473Fucking kek, cinema. >>43669252Happy birthday, nonny. >>43669221Very true. There are already mailbox props. I'll add it. >>43670210I have genuinely no idea. What are your specs?
>>43670210if your pc is rebooting and not just closing the game....you have bigger problems anon
>>43670225Also, separately, calling HEGuide Rentry anon, requesting a separate mods section at once! We're being flooded with mods!!! We need a collection!!
would love to see a feature where if a pony is a bit too irritated with you, she'll shove you a bit. i just had an argument with rainbow and i called her an egghead. she said to take that back but couldnt do anything to me other than just look at me lol.
>>43670210Are you getting a BSOD with some kind of memory error or such? Like >>43670243 said that seems like an issue with your machine.
>>43670186You cannot negotiate with terrorists, devanon. Next thing you know, they'll be asking you to add a mirror that goes to barbiefag land!
>>43670091>one anon's Floot wants to kill him over a joke about Angel>this one's wants to watch him mutilate/kill things
>>43670260add a feature where ponies can beat your ass and send you to the hospital
>>43670210post logs nonny, system logs too if you have them, idk if windows has those or not
>>43670272Add a feature where the ponies can kill you and dump your body in the river. Or rarity can give you a new pair of concrete shoes.
>>43670186What? Why? If he wants to release an EQG mod then let him but I don’t want that shit in my game.
>>43670281The pony was already in the game. Don't seethe over this, it makes you just as bad as them.
>>43670210Probably a driver issue. I hope you're not running Intel integrated graphics or shit like that.
>>43670278add a chance for mares to buck you in the face if you bring your head too close to their hindquarters
>>43670284She was removed, which was an improvement. I don’t care much because I’ll just remove her myself but it seems dumb to readd her when someone is making a mod that adds her and more for those who want EQG.

The pathfinding bug with doorways and rough terrain is really irritating. Trying to work at hayburger and watched 2 ponies get stuck in the doorway and then no others can get through.
>>43670292BRO yeah you need to save up and get something newer. try and get something during black friday or something next month
Devanon, do you intend to align the houses with the roads anytime soon?If you aren't, I try to burn some tokens to mod some better placement in as it maddens me a bit when a house is plonked right over the road.Are you interested in the result if any?
>>43670302I am. If it doesn't break anything, sure!
>>43670292>8 GB RAMAssuming you're using Windows 11, how are you even browsing the internet?
>>43670292Dude... Are you like... a time traveller? Welcome back 2013.
>>43670295Actually I think I’ll keep complaining since it bothers you so much.>>43664423In your livestream, you said the game took place in a season 2 setting. So why would you add Barbie or characters from later on in the game?
>>43670306Complaining is not doing you any favors, especially not when you also try to gotcha the dev.
>>43670309>stop complaining about being forced barbieslopNo
>>43670303>>43670302>>43670296Thanks for being open to other contributors devanon. It does seem like fixing all the collision issues would be a big help but also a big pain in the ass. Maybe trying to fit one or two collision fixes in each version and eventually it'll be in a better state overall?Alternatively, is there an easy way to check if a pony is trying to travel somewhere but hasn't moved in X amount or time, and then either no clip or teleport the pony to fix it?
>>43670306Don't be a parasprite.There's a bunch of ponies from post Season 2, like Caballeron, Starlight or Windy Whistles.What Season 2 means is that Twilight doesn't have wings, there's no Crystal Empire and tree library still stands.>>43670303I was hoping to just fire it off for Sol to work on and then I remembered you have it all open-source and there's no excuse for me to not to open the scene in Godot (4.5.2, correct?) and to not do it manually.
>>43670252this
Devanon can do what he wants, but I did lose some respect for him for bending the knee to >no hooves. Just a little bit.
>>43669307LOOK WHAT YOU'VE MADE ME DO! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW!? YOU'VE DOOMED US ALL!!!!!!https://u.pone.rs/lzguscya.mp4>Added to v0.0.9.1, along with Cheerilee and a minor bug fix.
>>43670321NTA but what's with the crystal empire marker on the map then? Genuinely curious what the plans are for it.
>>43670281stop bitching constantly this is getting old
>>43670335We'll see in Season 3, I guess.
Why are there barbiefags here again? You have your own threads. Go away.
>>43670334
>>43670334kekGlad you have such a great sense of humor devanon
>>43664423What AI is best for this? I'm in the mood to play this now.
>>43670334Fuck you for bending the knee to the most cancerous group on the board, bar none.
>>43670321>What Season 2 means is that Twilight doesn't have wings, there's no Crystal EmpireWhy do you have such a huge map then with Chrystal Empire, Manehattan etc.?
>>43670362Nonny, I'm not the devanon, I talk out of the same ass as you do.
>>43670360>most cancerous group not a hivemind
>>43670252Added a section, but ideally we'd have something cleaner.https://rentry.org/HEGuide#modsI can look into making a Neocities like the /chag/ ones or the RD or AJ one if you want.We only have two mods now, right? Chess and the filly one.>>43670358https://rentry.org/HEGuide
>>43670370Thank you.
>>43670358Model recommendations in the OP anon >>43664423Also if you want more options check out >>43664004 , that covers pretty much all the different options available
>>43670366>>43670362"Season 2" is more of a loose term I used off-hand for describing the cozy, low stakes and Mom-led feel of the first two or three seasons. It also means no creatures or Habershit. t. devanon
>>43670374Based, Ponyville belongs to the ponies
>>43670374Should add creatures, but only as enemies we can kill for bits. Like we can travel to Yakyakistan and kill those filthy fucking yiggers. Let us repopulate their lands with ponies.
>>43670374>no creaturesBut there were Diamond Dogs, Minotaurs, Dragons, Griffons, Bison, etc.
>>43670384You're very funny, anon.>>43670383+1
>>43670374Season 2 vibes are good vibesAgreeing with >>43670384 about creatures though, re: /chag/ anons talking to Rainbow Dash about Gilda's pussy >>43655443 and >>43655528Makes sense for now to just stay pony focused though, so that all the models can share animations and wearables and any other stuff better before making different bodies.
>>43668069>ctrl+f cadance>0 hitsNot to dump more work on your plate, devanon, but you know what you have to do.
>>43670374Dev, remove the EQGhorse, please. I want my Equestria experience comfy without retarded spinoffs.If barbiefags want their characters, they should mod their shit in just like the pedos. They already got the modder, after all.
>>43664965>Sleeping ponies keep their eyes closed. They used to sleep with eyes open from far away and snap them shut when you walked up.>>43664965I'm kinda wondering if you could do a "ghost" system for ponies that aren't in your sight range similar to how Orbit does it in Single Player [Tushonka] https://github.com/Chazut/ORBITMay not absolutely need it yet though and just something for down the line.forgot to actually quote the relevant part of the update that got me thinking of it
Is the mod that adds mare bits compatible with 0.0.9? Also anyone got a link to it?
Pegasi Uber Ride hits hard in VR
>>43670401Perfect. PR this to the github, I'll pull it and push as 0.0.9.2
>>43670392Can we stop this complainfaggotry pleaseCrying over a joke. Bet you didn't even look at what the dev added
>>43670225Made two bug reports, one of them game breaking when adding clothing.
>>43670402We need distance fog then
>>43670374But... please?
>>43670408I think Gilda is cute. I might add her specifically because she is Mom-approved.
>>43670409You don't have to add her right away. It would be nice if sometime in future.
>>43670409Fausticorn as an easter egg?
>>43670399Someone's working on a mare pussy mod but still WIP I think.I don't think there'd be any changes between versions that would break a pussy mod unless the models actually changed, right?
>>43669334>>43669473 top kekGot you, anons. It's batched: one request, one response, that gives X (up to a limit) clones something relevant to say. Shouldn't melt a TTS server either, as clones only speak ponese.Also, see that Pinkie copter? It works, animations and sounds.Soon.>>43670186>>43670334As for my end of the deal, they are ash and will remain ash, this is the last time you'll see them from me as long as the contract holds, it is done: https://u.pone.rs/wdufepmt.mp4And the truth is, I only wanted everyone to have the chance to experience mother/daughter kino with Celestia and Sunset.>>43669761>Why did they suddenly start dancingIt's just an event tied to a keyword: ">ISOLATED".They're fancy Chinese models (TuYunY) rigged up to Half-Life 2 and Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines animations with a few tweaks. So at a base level they've got Alyx's idles+gesticulations and the VtMB ones ride on top for more detailed interactions/emotions. The dance sets and music (the isolated meme) from VtMB were a bonus, and they were all boopable, carriable, pettable, and handholdable too + eye, head, body tracking.
>>43670417Oh its still in development, couldn't remember if it was
>>43670421>POWER WORD: >no hoovesHoly fuck, Anon, I don't think I've laughed that hard in a while. Also, you are really good at modding my game. Would you like to come on as a co-dev?
Devanon, I noticed an asset from a depreciated build was in game again, something labeled "Sunset Shimmer". I've updated my old scrumboy report, hopefully you can adjust this next update. Thank you for your attention on this matter.
>>43670421>spike dies too
>>43670391Slut
>>43670374>It also means no HabershitWhat about Glim*er?
>>43670455Glimmer is more Larson than Haber, isn't she? I think she's cute, and she makes the late seasons more watchable. I've not watched 8 or 9, though.
>>43670421>Twilight is still pouting SciencoBabbleAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHFUCK LLMS
>>43670374Look at the replies, devanon, and shudder what could have been if you added any 18+ stuff in by default lol.Told you you'll thank me later.
>>43670457>Glimmer is more Larson than Haber, isn't she?Haber literally had plans to replace M6 with Glimmer and her friends.
>>43670470Evil cannot create, it can only corrupt and destroy.
>>43670467Your comparison makes no sense. A fraction of the board likes EQG, which is why there’s a knee jerk reaction to hearing it’s being added.Whereas anyone who isn’t an offboarder wants to fuck a mare.
>>43670482This, you'd have to be an offboarder turbo newfag to think horse porn could ever be more controversial than EQG here. It's not like we're xitter or something.
>>43670374>Mom-led feel of the first two or three seasons>Starlight Glimmer is strolling through PonyvilleHuh?
I get what devanon means. It's about the feel rather than a specific hard line.
just had a moment with flutters witnessed me getting crowded with birds lol
>>43670367>we're not a hivemindMeanwhile:>>43670295>>43670309>>43670336>>43670352>>43670403Barbiefags already scramble to damage control.Hey dev,>>43670402Let me tell you about barbiefags since you seem to be missing some crucial context behind why they're so fucking hated.The main issue with them is that they try to insert themselves into just about every thread they can. They constantly need to be included and if they get their initial inch, they then take the mile and try to take the limelight despite EQG being hot garbage.This came in form of coordinated pushes to push EQG content in threads, which very often followed a pattern of a thing getting posted and several comments commending it popping up soon thereafter.People told them to use their own threads, but of course the words fell on deaf ears, so autists who just wanted to be left alone with their pony-only threads got fucking mad.I was here 3000 years ago when these autists raped barbiefags so fucking hard that they had to run to their pocket mod to hand out bans for hurting their fee-fees. Bans were handed out like candy but that wasn't enough, so they got their pocket mod to instate a list of auto-ban words. >picrel is one that refused your post and caused (probably still does!) an instant 3-day ban without any warnings.I must remind you that here on 4chinz you can call jews kikes, call blacks niggers, call lgbt crowd troons and fags, you can call jannies any and all slurs you know BUT GOD FORBID you call barbiefags what they really are.Moreover, later a couple of their discord servers were leaked which they used to coordinate bumping threads they didn't like (i.e. where they encountered some hardcore resistance) off the board. They'd time bumps of their own and seemingly-unrelated threads such that they could create a thread just at the right time to bump the one they didn't like off the board. This is colloquially known as sliding threads.There were other issues that I'm not privy to, other anons may add whatever they bore witness to.Overall barbie posting got so bad, a splinter pony imageboard was created that explicitly banned barbies - something about no hooves and no business or something - it was/is pretty dead.Anyway, you have eyes in your head so you can clearly see the same pattern of coordinated damage control/praise in this very thread. That shit never went anywhere. That dude gave out their hand via a suspiciously specific denial - they really are a fucking hivemind.My only request, as a decorated veteran of this autismal shitflinging of ungodly proportions is to remove shimmer from the game. Only pure, untainted FiM, that's all I ask.
>>43670531Oops, >picrel didn't get posted, re-attaching...
>>43670531This is a consequence of "pride and inclusion" being narrative bludgeons employed against civilization through things like eqg and other compromised and weaponized productions like a bioware game. They are programmed npcs.
>Dash asks me to go fishing in the evening>Go to stream with her>Roleplay an entire evening fishing with her>Banter the entire time>Feelin immersed>Feelin good>Pack up the caught fishies>Start walking back with her>She clips through the bridge and disappears>Haven't saved since the morning of that day>No way to save her from the backroomsFUUUUUUUCK! fix the damn clipping and pathfinding PLEASE!!
>>43670531>Overall barbie posting got so bad, a splinter pony imageboard was created that explicitly banned barbies - something about no hooves and no business or something - it was/is pretty dead.So the true ponychads are in such low number that they can't have a board without barbiefags? That's kinda pathetic.Also, you're gay.
>>43670531Anon, since you took the time to write all that shit out, I'll give you a synopsis of my opinion.I hate EQG, too. I don't like it, haven't watched it, don't wanna watch it, whatever.So some eqgfag comes in here, with a barbie mod fully featured with mouth tracking, and rigs, and like the Joker he says he'll release it unless I give into his demands. So, I add an (OPT IN, MIND YOU!) button called "Summon the Great Evil" that spawns Shimmer with a fucking bolt of lightning, faux-screaming about how fucked we are. Satisfied, he replies with an equally humorous video where the barbies literally die and turn to ash after POWER WORD: >no hooves. We are joking with one another and we both clearly have a sense of humor. Adding shimmer, as this evil boogeymare, is funny to me. And because it's funny, and it's my game, I'll do it. So unclench your anus, and please, stop shitflinging. All of you. Both of you. Neither of you. I don't care. Please.
>>43670545The bridge keeps eating our wives!
>>43670555Fucking based as always
>>43670534>picThere really is nothing more embarrassing than the jannies having an automatic ban in place for an insult directed at you. I don’t know how barbiefags don’t feel an immense amount of shame over this.
>>43670531You might want to talk to a therapist about this, you seem pretty traumatized
>>43670548>So the true ponychads are in such low number that they can't have a board without barbiefags?Funny you mention that, barbies tried REALLY hard to worm their way into that board. Tried the 'Can I post shimmer? She's a pony!' trick, too! Saw them getting banned and getting mad over it in real time with my two eyes.Really makes you think.>Also, you're gay.It warms my heart knowing that my mere existence still makes the doug-lovers seethe.>>43670555>And because it's funny, and it's my game, I'll do it.Well, you just got played like a fiddle by barbies, that's all I'm going to say.Dropped.
Update on Piss-mod (no release just yet)- https://pastebin.com/h1v0e4tX
>>43670555NTA but I think the anon's point was more about how if you submit to barbiefags demands, they'll ask for something else next, then another, then another, and next thing you know you've added canterlot high and the barbies take over. Giving them one thing is letting the terrorists win.Personally, I think the whole thing is funny. With how offended barbiefags get when you call their dogshit show dogshit, and how upset ponychads get when you don't have 100% poners. It's like watching a cripple fight.
>>43664423Dev, I pushed an important PR; please merge ASAP.https://github.com/homedevanon/home-equestria/pull/10>SPIKE THE LITTLE FAGGOT IS SLOWING DOWN EVERYONE'S GAME.He doesn't have>NEAR_DIVISORSo being near him kills what switches distant ponies to cheap versions.I had the problem of loading a save in the Library putting me at low FPS, and it was because of him.I went from 25 FPS to 166.If you have big slow downs on your game it's because of him.
>>43670586I KNEW THAT FAGGOT COULDN'T BE TRUSTED! DEVANON, ADD SPIKE ABUSE NEXT UPDATE!
>>43670579I can promise you this: I will always do what is funniest to me specifically because it's my game and it belongs to me. It's open source, so like I told the barbiefag, if you don't like it - change it. >>43670586AAAA!!!! Thank you, Anon!!! Pushing now as v0.0.9.2!!!
>>43670592clubbing spike
>>43670574Good piss
Before the wife eating bridge claims any more lives, having some kind of debug command to teleport ponies in case of emergency would be nice

>>43670644I have the fix for the bridges.Give me 3minutes and I will PR
>>43670626I said this two threads ago. We really need a console with some basic commands. It'll help with bug hunting and fixing bugs, especially with how early into development the game is.
Is there a way to get rid of the 'Speech off' tooltip? I'm a text-only desktop patrician and it's overlapping the input box.
Fuck off, hag, she's mine.
>>43670303Here's what I allowed myself.Going to test right now, but wanted to check with you.I moved the treebrary the way that when you exit it, you see something like picrel with Ponyville landmarks (and I guess the skating park out of door ramps to the left, lul).Is it okay?
>>43670735Here's the general view, I didn't mess with the bridges.
>>43670644I know it was mentioned before, but I'm having issues where the ai keeps repeatedly asking something despite being told to forget it moments before:>Chatting with twilight and she says she wants to learn more about earth>Say about going back to the library to do so>Get there and one of the first things discussed is flying machines>Explain how planes and helicopters work>"Oh, let me get a parchment and quill so you can draw a helicopter so I can understand it better">Deflect and continue talking about other shit because theres no feature like that in the game>over the next hour of talking she asks about it like 5 times>Eventually say fuck it lets play chess after outright declining to do the drawing>Get absolutely mogged in chess by twiggles>Tell her well done>Says thank you>Not 30 seconds later: "So, can you draw that helicopter now>Fucking no, tell her I refuse to draw it ever and I'm doing it just to spite her>She concedes>Lull in conversation for another minute or less>"So anon, let me get some parchment and quill so you can draw that helicopter for me"HOLY FUCKING SHIT ENOUGH WITH THE FUCKING HELICOPTER REEEEEEOn a somewhat side note in our chats in the vast majority of replies she will repeat the main part of what I said as like a clarification. Idk if thats to do with the code or to do with my LLM but I switched part way through to a different model of claude and it made no difference
>>43670741How nice of the ponies to build the school for little fillies right next to the spooky forest filled with monsters
>>43670749Imagine thinking only pegasi were smart enough to create rainbow factories.Earth ponies know a thing or two about child sacrifices too!
>>43670743Try this:>Okay, Twiggles, here's what it looks like. Look at this sketch I just drew on the parchment you gave me. You see that? That's a helicopter.You've gotta abandon mechanics and roleplay a bit. The model can keep up with abstractions.
>>43670743The /chag/ VN has a ton of prompt direction that gets pushed to the model. Devanon, are you doing the same here or is it just sending the text input raw? Having some kind of prompt content setup that usually works and making it player editable might be good for overall experience improvement.

>>43670743>>43670754I think the LLM pipeline can be shored up a bit too though. I'm about to start working on that, mainly because the smaller local models I'm trying to use need a bit of extra help where larger models can just take the ~4KB of summary input and deal with it "well enough"... but I guess there still are issues where a refusal should update that summary, so Twilight might say something like:>I know you said you didn't want to draw the helicopter, but I just wanted to let you know I'm still thinking about it...instead of just being completely out to lunch
>>43670741I shouldn't be saying this myself, but I kinda like this opening.
>>43670768>5 FPSSPIIIIIIIIIKE
>>43670741Not the dev, but could you make a mod pck so I can try it out? There are something’s I really like in the current map that I’d want to preserve, like some houses having a fence outside, or stones leading up to the door. Curious to see if those are still in this one.
>>43670776I fucked up some ramps, so I'll be fixing them right now.Also moved and lost Trixie's cart, sorry, TGAP.Yeah, this is going out as a mod first and foremost.
So I'm using the latest version of the game (0.0.9.1) and supposedly the spa has been added, however when I go over to the spa its just the exterior building and I cant even walk up to the door just like it was in older versions. I've even tried making a new save to see if it works but it doesnt. Any idea what's going on or am I being a massive retard? Also, where are these new socks that got added a few updates ago?
>>43670794Not the latest.>>43670586>>43670644
>>43664423Here, dev.https://github.com/homedevanon/home-equestria/pull/11It should fix the bridges problem.Even if they somehow end up in the banned dimension, there's also a rescue system to make doubly sure.
>>43670782Looking forward to trying it out. Would be nice to have the town look more accurate to the show.
another bug. When im working (ex: heyburger) they speak and order, and when im preparing the food. If i speak back to them at all the character will cancel the order. plus any food that i need to use will not be able to be built. I have to end the shift and start it again. same thing happens at the spa.
>>43670797Oh you right, updated. Though its made no difference, spa is still shut
>>43670811I've had the same issue as well
>>43670811Just put the hayfries in the bag, anon
>>43670814Doors should open at 9am.
>>43670831Nope
>>43670838Odd. It’s working on my marechine
>>43670809That's for later.At the moment I just want roads to be roads and for anon to took his mare on a date somewhere nice.Later on I think we'll recruit people to gather artpacks for refereneces for their waifus houses and work from these hotspots.Like, Fluttershy's cottage should be on a small hill, but doing this right now is likely too early.t. not the dev, Ponyville rearranger.
>>43669307Even when the barbiefags do as OP said and add their own shit, retards still seethe. Pottery>>43670384You're just being obtuse. You know exactly what anons mean when they say no creatures.>>43670531Imagine being this angry over an optional joke character. Holy shit. Haven't seen anything this funny in a while.
>>43670782She looks so sad. Give it BACK.
fluttershy said she wanted to see zecora i didnt even know she was in the game
>>43670838>Day 12>>43670845Does the game need to start from scratch in order for major new systems to work as intended?Debug printouts into a log file (maybe with a togglable checkbox in game for a debug mode?) where every time a schedule event occurs it prints something along with any other info/warning/errors that would be helpful for bugfixes might be a good idea.
>>43670923She looks really retarded and is undercooked right now so I tend not to mention her in development
>>43670213Autism.
>>43670213Very severe mental retardation.
>latest version is a dodgy executable at 70mbNah that's too fucking dodgy mate.
>>43670985You underestimate your work. I'd boop her.
>>43670920I did what any responsible software engineer does, I went to Sol and said "I did a booboo pls fix", so now shit's being fixed.I have twenty years of experience, not a troll.
>>43670743What about if there was an 'action' hotkey. Similar to text to speech, so you can describe an action you are taking that the game doesn't have implemented
>>43671013It's an installer rather than the entire game build. It helps with new players getting the newest version of the game, helps me get updates out faster by not requiring a full 30-minute long rebuild and repackage and reupload of the full 10GB of game files to MEGA and github every time.
>>43671057Something like this or a narration/director mode where you can describe something happening from the third person perspective would be good.In the meanwhile, AI LLMs tend to be flexible enough that if you narrate actions along with dialog it'll probably work.
>>43670776How do you like them fences?
>>43670303>>43670809Here it is.Tested on 0.0.9.4 and 0.0.9.6.https://u.pone.rs/rbiszqvf.zipMoved tons of houses, then asked GPT to clean up my booboos.Aimed to have well-defined streets, to align the doors with "paths".Ramps do work and don't flicker, ponies go up and down.Fences are quite fine. Moved postboxes out of the boonies.Reorganized the carnival area to make it less cluttered and more carnival, moved Trixie to be under the hill near the sales action.Moved Spa a bit, put it outside of Hayburger, two for one kinda deal.Rotated Carousel Boutique, now the door is where the gravel (?) path is.Moved the Treebrary, rotated it, so the new Nonny walking out of the door (we do need a higher res texture on that freaking door) will see Ponyville landmarks and not a railway station.After loading the existing save ponies do not move with the houses but seem to still remember where they live and seem to have little to no novel problems with navigation, ymmw.Enjoy.
Can anyone spoonfeed me on how to mod this?I have a Claude sub, but I have no idea how to generate/add models or generally mod Godot.
>>43671289Ask it "claude how do we mod this"?
- Pony piss mod can be found here, if interested -I'm working on the filly mod once again -> Since it broke with the last relationship update.https://mega.nz/folder/v6hkgD7a#JKqAoV1PIdrHbRoR4E1NoA
>>43671300That was my plan but I want to hear from the more skilled anons first.Like, how pony models were even made? I remember that the original stole- uh BORROWED ones got replaced due to impending DMCA bullshit.
>>43671303We got piss and filly dating before good old fashioned maresex. Equestria has fallen. Where are the maresexchad's at?
>>43671319The dev said he’s a virgin and that sex scares him so I haven’t modded it in out of respect
>>43671324I'm a virgin because I'm saving myself for Equestria. And I told you that in CONFIDENCE, YOU JERK!
>>43671313What kind of mod are you thinking of? It's my understanding a good way to work with AI for coding is like a funnel. If you're thinking of modding models for instance, start with a general question like "I want to add 3D models to a game. What should I do?" and then take whatever response it gives you and drill down from there. By the end you can give Claude a code file and say "I want to mod this file to do X, how can I do that?" or that kind of thing.
>>43671303Based, peeing on fillies mod when?
>>43671303>>43671319>>43671236Okay, so hear me out. Fillyanon's comment made me realize his mod just used the relationship system and made a new bar called Bladder which is why when the relationship system changed it broke. Devanon implemented a new system where there are different levels of Love and Friendship and the bar fills up and resets at a new level, which seems like a good system. And then this other anon mentioned maresex and there's already an anon working on a pussy mod but it's WIP.Should mares have a Hornyness / Lust meter?That could be part of the pussy mod or just a separate mod. It could work just like Fillyanon's mod with mares getting more pent up over time until they get off. And just like the sudden jump for drinks with Fillyanon's mod, make Zecora could have aphrodisiac potions to make mares' lust jump up? And/or when there's a calendar having an actual estrus season. Maybe smacking a mare's ass could increase it too, perhaps relationship dependent?Already working on multiple personal projects now so not sure if I'll be able to work on a mod, but this seems like a good one that wouldn't be too hard to implement.
>>43671363I wanted to mess with mare models to try to make them cuter, mainly in attempt to make their faces look less like steve minecraft.If there's a decently easy way to add new character models, I'd try adding Gilda, making her a rare reoccurring minor nuisance around the town.Kinda have to know the dev's process that he used to make pony models for that.

>>43671414Investigating
Filly dating mod should be patched for this current version -> Get it herehttps://mega.nz/file/mu4ByZRJ#rglkBvs4HeUW1JDvsHzHbkJM9OQ3FD_Z8-4HyjrgpM8Didn't have much time to test, looks legit tho. I'm gonna be in bed, so I have to run my own tests tomorrow. gn.
I found the true culprit behind the mare-eating bridge. It was Twiggy Piggy this whole time!
>>43671303Runs like pee. Went from a stable 60fps to 14fps when running the mod.
>>43671400I don’t know if others agree but I personally think the OpenPony models look really good. You know, the ones from /opg/? I don’t know shit about models and software but from what I’ve seen it’s pretty easy to use those models elsewhere
>>43671384I think this would be good, if nothing else, to bring us one step closer to the true Maresex Experience. The one issue I could see is maybe getting the models to play ball? Though if they're willing to go along with fillies and piss, I dont see why not. When marebits anon and whoever does the lust bar are done, we would just need the intercourse part and then we'll be able to combine it all into the Sex Unofficial Patch
>>43671384Seems like it might be treading into gooner territory to me. I like devanons original idea where sex should be earned through relationships, not just a horny meter.
>>43671484If the Horny-o-meter is only visible AFTER a certain love level, it's not too bad. It would add a bit more depth instead of being able to go up to a mare and demanding "SEX NOW", like how it'd currently work.
>>43671456It was developed between version updates, im gonna try to fix it eith new code tomorrow. Until then try to play with it or uninstall it for now, I'll repost it here once done.
>>43671499What if the meter showed you a range value instead of a true value, and the range got smaller as you got closer to her. That way you can tell if she's worked up or not at all, without knowing 'she's at a 76, and 75 is the threshold for this specific thing'
>>43671414They never got pushed to the github repo, for some reason. They've been sent now. >>43671484I agree. Please do not go too far gooner. As we've seen from example, that's offboarder behavior. >>43671400My 3d modeling process is boiled down as such:>Give chatgpt-image 2.5 references, describe what I want>Iterate, iterate, iterate, get a solid base until I'm happy with the design>Generate front, left, back, right images>Go to tripo3d >Generate body with those four references, make sure everything aligns properly, maybe touch it up a little>Smart mesh, multi-view>Generate textures, rig if applicable (Sometimes I make buildings) >Test with weird poses and stuff>Put it into a coding agent like claude or codex, ask it to fix anything that tripo fucked up like a rigging issue or misaligned skeleton or clean up AI smushed textures, then ask it to put it in whatever I need, or to retarget the walk animation to the bones it hasAI is a tool, but you still have to have taste and art direction. It can't make it "look good" for you. Hammers do not build houses. Here's a development timeline video of the Femanon model I'm working on. https://u.pone.rs/rhnpirmb.mp4
>>43671499Yeah, I can see that working. Maybe have it on the dating level so you have to be real close to a mare to get some.
>>43671516That could work. I do agree with devanon's preference to not super gamify it, and locking actually sexing the mare behind earning it with the built in love bar, at least by default. If some gooner wants to fuck around in the mod settings and adjust values that's on them.
>>43671289I probably have a different setup, but I like using the CLI harnesses (Claude Code CLI, or Codex CLI, or Pi). I'd just start if off with "Clone this repo <github repo for the game> and pull the most recent release downloads. Take a look over the project and see what it would take to make a mod for <idea>" then read what it says, ask questions and then start digging in. I've never used this, but it looks pretty sweet: https://www.meshy.ai/?noRedirect=true you might be able to sign up and get a key for Claude to generate assets as you describe what you want.
Looks like we need a new thread. Devanon? You here?
>>43671534>Please do not go too far gooner. As we've seen from example, that's offboarder behavior.Love making with AI mares is board culture. Don’t be too much of a puritan, and let anons sex the mares how they want if they’re the ones making the mods.Just my opinion.
>>43671588Working on it
>>43671635I'm only chiming in with my opinion as well. Celestia knows I can't really do anything to stop them. I guess, besides actually hindering their progress by implementing deliberate checks to see if they've installed the mods and bricking their game or some shit like an assmad Twitter gamedev streamer. It'd also be impossible because the game is open source so they could just remove those checks, so it'd also mean making the game closed source encrypted. But that would be so very, very faggoty of me I'd cut sooner cut my stomach open with my sudoku board.And truthfully, I don't care that much. It would just kind of upset me if the game was made into nothing but porn mods. I want to see people create stuff like the Skate mod, chess mod, Pinkie pool, that's the kind of shit that makes development worth it.
>>43671236Noticed a few things with this mod;- Treebrary half under the grass, nearly none of the sitting cushions work- Spa has a much less noticeable clip in the back left corner- Fluttershy's ramp no longer reaches the ground- There was a fence placed directly in front of the house beside Aloe's. The name for this house is not showing on my map, not sure who lives there and I have not seen anypony try to get in, but i imagine it will cause some problems- There are a few floating/clipping items, a bench near the school, a hay bale floating/clipping into a home near the town hall- Despite the above, I very much like the map changes made, a little more polish and this will be great!A few things about the map in general;- The Carnival area has a lot of hills that are not navigable and, while I have not noticed ponies getting caught up, it is quite annoying to follow the path only to run into a unscalable hill- The cellar door on the school house is placed improperly- The path leading to Applejacks is cut off by the fence corner
>>43671736back right corner* fuck, it was on the left side of my screen in the screenshot i was referencing but it is in fact the right corner of the building from the entrance
>>43671534Thank you for such a detailed answer.Looks like some Blender knowledge is still required. Welp I'm SoL, gotta hit up them donut tutorials.>Hammers do not build houses.Yes, yes they d-[Hammer Level Editor PTSD intensifies]>>43671565Coding side of things I think I'll be able to get through (been modding a ton in the pre-LLM era), it's the packaging the mod properly, making textures and models w/ AI, etc...
>>43671736trixie shows seem to be busted as well as they happen behind the stage on the grass
>>43671766coding knowledge puts you leaps and bounds ahead when it comes to this stuff then. If I'm gauging your XP level right it'll go something like this:1. There's no way an LLM can do this.jpg2. You fiddle fart around and get help doing this.jpg while you're micromanaging stuff (this is not a bad thing, I'll explain later)3. yay look, this.jpg now exists with LLM assistance4. slowly realize SotA LLMs can take a prompt like "Make this, don't stop until tests are green"5. Now you're realizing you're now free from donut tutorials, and are picking up vocabulary just from troubleshooting with the AI assistant6. No more micromanaging at the start, instead asking the AI to generate block diagrams of systems so you can reference things to work on.7. Realize it's actually better than 90% of human coders and your micromanagement is just getting in the waySo, literally just ask your assistant about packaging mods correctly, give it examples, you're now a context/prompt engineer. If you're a real sicko you'll start wanting to build your own harnesses running swarms of cheap Chinese model agents.jk, idk I never got to that last step myself. Literally have got things done beyond my comprehension with simply the provided CLI harnesses. Part of the process is letting go and learning to provide examples and references and letting the model figure out the answers to your questions and let it build. Blender has a python API that it gleefully and competently uses
