07:00 * Ali read ConfusionRift as RazorSharpFang and was confused

07:00 <RazorSharpFang> Aha, no snow over here.

07:02 <Finwe> It sometimes snows as late as in May.

19:00 *** ChanServ sets mode: +qo Ali Ali

19:01 * SunsetShimmer applies affection at Ali!

19:02 * Ali squeaks and pulls SunsetShimmer in for snuggles

19:03 <ADragonDreaming> Started, aye

19:04 <ADragonDreaming> graphics quality set to low by default, which actually isn't _terrible_

19:04 <ADragonDreaming> expect when you get a good look at the water.

19:04 <ADragonDreaming> need to fiddle with medium.

19:04 <ADragonDreaming> see what my computer can handle.

19:07 <qtd3n> I'm still surprised openbsd runs so well on my thinkpad

19:07 <qtd3n> I wanted to play starcraft the other day, though, but that's impossible when WINE won't work on obsd

19:09 <Cepheid> Yeah MHWorld works relatively well if you disable a certain graphical effect that is hard on rendering.  I'd argue low-medium is regular PS4 quality.  My PC can handle much higher so long as I set it to 30 FPS max.

19:09 <ADragonDreaming> which effect is that?

19:10 <Cepheid> Global illumination I think.  Lemme refresh my memory right quick.

19:12 <Cepheid> Off-topic, but https://youtu.be/CSim6uwB6EY also sorry for rotated view.  Phones are hard for me to hold in such a view.

19:12 <Cepheid> Volume Rendering Quality I believe is the effect.

19:12 <Schism> Cats knead.  o3o

19:12 <Cepheid> This isn't kneading.

19:12 <Schism> Cepheid: Also, yup.

19:13 <Schism> Because the clue is on a statue of Tiamat.

19:13 <Cepheid> This is the onset of some sort of behaviour where he attacks my wrist and bites me a lot.

19:13 <Cepheid> Wait, the statue is Tiamat?  Where'd you learn that?

19:14 <Schism> Well, I didn't myself, but that's what Tiamat looks like when you fight her.

19:14 <Cepheid> Ah.

19:14 <Schism> And I imagine there are murals around of her.

19:14 <Cepheid> Yeah I suspected a humanoid.

19:14 <Cepheid> Her wedge for example shows a human face.

19:14 <Schism> Yea.

19:15 <Schism> Also, that's like the one action I hadn't found a use for, and it's similar in ways to the Dance of Life too.

19:15 <ADragonDreaming> I do not know what Spitfire is doing.

19:15 <ADragonDreaming> I believe it is a form of affection.

19:16 <Cepheid> Ironically the dance of life is what made me aware of it, schism.

19:19 <Cepheid> Right, so image quality has a huge impact on MHWorld.  As does Volume Rendering Quality..

19:19 <Cepheid> Shadow Quality has no impact that I can see.

19:19 <Cepheid> Same with AA..

19:19 *** Joins: DashedRainbows (uid13850@is.a.pretty.pony)

19:20 * DashedRainbows barks sadly

19:23 <Cepheid> Max LOD level, not seeing any impact.  Foliage sway has an impact.

19:23 <Cepheid> AF, no impact as expected.

19:24 <Cepheid> Motion Blur, DOF, no effect.  SH Diffuse Quality, no idea what that does.

19:24 <ADragonDreaming> shadow diffusion, probably/

19:24 <Cepheid> Vignette Effects, nothing. Z-prepass, nothing.

19:24 <ADragonDreaming> so mostly it's image quality and volume rendering.

19:25 <Cepheid> Image Quality is basically dynamic resolution.

19:25 <Cepheid> If you don't mind the resolution changing over time, you can keep it at low or prioritize performance.

19:26 <ADragonDreaming> Default Loq Quality ran with zero issues.

19:26 <ADragonDreaming> *Low

19:26 <ADragonDreaming> so I'll experiment.

19:26 <ADragonDreaming> Performance over looks, of course.

19:27 <Cepheid> Of course.

19:27 <Cepheid> Dynamic range may or may not have an impact, I can't legitimately tell.

19:28 <Cepheid> The annoying part about testing some features is that they can only be set at the title screen.

19:30 *** Joins: LibrarianofHope (Librarianof@Pony-tvo.ro0.207.187.IP)

19:31 <LibrarianofHope> hello

19:31 <Cepheid> Volume Rendering seems to have the highest impact.  Title screen goes from 45 FPS to 75 FPS by disabling it.

19:31 <ADragonDreaming> Aye

19:31 <Cepheid> And all that seems to do is... add some fog.

19:34 <Cepheid> And disabling Screen Space Reflection grants another 15 FPS on top, to 90.

19:34 <Cepheid> So Screen Space Reflection and Volume Rendering Quality seem to be the highest hitters, alongside image quality.

19:38 <Cepheid> SS Reflection seems to be involved in lighting, so scenes with a lot of light will be impacted.

19:38 <Cepheid> Volume Rendering Quality seems to just do fog, and nothing but fog.  Why the hell it costs so much is beyond me.

19:38 <Cepheid> Image quality just appears to be their name for dynamic resolution.

19:39 <LibrarianofHope> how was your christmas?

19:40 <Cepheid> I spent most of it going insane.

19:40 <Cepheid> Ask Schism, he can vouche for me.

19:40 <LibrarianofHope> please elaborate

19:42 <Cepheid> I've been playing La-Mulana without a guide.

19:42 <Cepheid> You should try it.  It's fun.  </Demonic Lying Skill>

19:42 <LibrarianofHope> whats that even about?

19:43 <LibrarianofHope> i hav seen it on some stores, never checked

19:43 <Cepheid> Basic gist as I understand it:  Your father found the lost ruins of La-Mulana, you decide to go after him.

19:43 <Cepheid> And basically descend into madness.

19:43 <LibrarianofHope> ohh

19:43 <LibrarianofHope> i wetn to vegas for some days

19:43 <LibrarianofHope> fun place

19:44 <Cepheid> Schism:  By the by, two pieces of software that aren't critical to the game, but you may be interested in:  There's one in the Dimensional Corridor, and one in the Graveyard of Giants.  They both need the Snapshot to find.

19:44 <LibrarianofHope> brought back a small galaxy tab im using as a notebook

19:44 <Cepheid> Schism:  One thing I like about the boss tracks is how they open, for the record.  Gives a real sense to the fact that you are probably screwed.

19:46 <LibrarianofHope> is the us still unswe closed goverment?

19:48 <Cepheid> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOpcUAGM9lg An example of what I mean regarding the openings of boss tracks.  Also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pclKnj8_uiw  Every track seems to have one.  I'm surprised more games don't do this.

19:50 <Cepheid> Schism:  Oh, there's also an easy way to learn all the numbers.

19:50 <LibrarianofHope> tech question

19:50 <Cepheid> Find a tablet that uses numbers, read it, then read it again without glyph reader.  Compare the two, and you can extract the numbers.

19:50 <LibrarianofHope> how can i make a touchscreem more sensitve?

19:50 <Cepheid> Not sure.

19:57 <Schism> Oh, I got the Graveyard of Giants one, Cepheid, so I take it that the second one is similar.

19:57 * DashedRainbows licks PinkieShy a lot

19:57 * PinkieShy hugs DashedRainbows

19:58 <DashedRainbows> This better be amazing

20:00 <DashedRainbows> How is the PinkieShy?

20:04 <Cepheid> Not quite, Schism.  It's actually hidden with no visible clue, as far as I can tell.

20:04 <Cepheid> Unlike the other La-Mulana writing murals.

20:05 <PinkieShy> I'm doing great. How are you

20:07 <Cepheid> By the way, you were right about the number 7, Schism.

20:07 <DashedRainbows> Meh

20:07 <Schism> Cepheid: Ah, this would also be how to learn the La-Mulanese alphabet, naturally -- though the characters are difficult to distinguish.

20:07 <Cepheid> The only reason I was confused about it was because of the philosophers.

20:07 <Schism> Ahh.

20:07 <Cepheid> They use a symbol similar to that of 7, but with extras.

20:08 <Cepheid> Schism:  I'm debating learning the La-Mulanese alphabet before playing LM2.

20:09 <Schism> Might not be a bad idea.  Heh.  There is also the Galactic Standard Alphabet, but that's not a thing in LM.

20:09 <Schism> er, Standard Galactic Alphabet.  Heh.

20:10 <Cepheid> The total sum of all gems + Lameza, is 488..  Divided by two, that's 244.  Now then..

20:13 <Cepheid> Bingo.

20:16 <Cepheid> That is adorable.

20:17 <LibrarianofHope> we have the clean our eeeeee

20:17 <Schism> Also, eeees love banana.  https://twitter.com/Raphaelite_Girl/status/1038854742670286849

20:18 * Schism offers Surry bananana.

20:18 <Cepheid> "Bud, Migera, Led and Fut built a flying tower to return the Mother to the sky.  8-bit is so hard to read."

20:18 <Schism> Bahaha.

20:19 <Schism> Course, that means the Tower of the Goddess is a spaceship.

20:19 <Cepheid> Yeah, that was pretty obvious from the onset.

20:22 <Cepheid> "I used to talk like this in the past." :P

20:23 <Cepheid> Which implies one of two things:  The translation of the relevant text was accurate in the original, or the dev is aware of the translation of the original, and at one point even played it.

20:23 <Schism> It really is like night and day, comparing the two versions.

20:24 <ADragonDreaming> Image quality to Mid, so far no visible problems.

20:24 <Cepheid> And it is, yes, Schism.

20:24 <ADragonDreaming> Might change once actually out in the field.

20:24 <Cepheid> I've been watching a playthrough of the original.

20:24 <Cepheid> There were quite a few changes.  Notes moved around, different puzzles.  An entirely different Eternal Corridor.

20:25 * PinkieShy sips his coffee

20:26 <Cepheid> Even symbology was changed.  Apparently they decided to remove a lot of the references to Christian concepts.

20:32 <Schism> Heh, that DeceasedCrab's playthrough?

20:35 <Cepheid> Nah, I don't like people talking over playthroughs.  A player by the name of Sicris.

20:36 <ADragonDreaming> steam

20:36 <SunsetShimmer> Whereas the only reason I'd watch a playthrough IS for the commentary and perspectives.

20:36 <ADragonDreaming> stop opening the game every time I download one of the free DLCs

20:37 <Cepheid> Schism:  The riddle tells me to ask a player who's played the original about the item hidden in the Gate of Time, but yeah.

20:37 <Cepheid> Hmm.

20:39 *** Quits: LibrarianofHope (Librarianof@Pony-tvo.ro0.207.187.IP) (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)

20:40 <Cepheid> Ah whatever, I'll figure out the item's location later.  It's not super-critical.

20:44 <Cepheid> Voice, tail, body, wings.

20:46 <Cepheid> Right, need flares.  Lots of flares.

20:46 <Schism> If you take the item fairy to that one spot in the Chamber of Extinction, not only will you get a ton of coins, but flares also seem to drop quite readily.

20:46 <Cepheid> I am aware.

20:51 <Cepheid> Man she has a lot of health.

20:51 <Schism> Sophia?  Yeah.

20:51 <Cepheid> I'm hesitant to ask how one is supposed to kill her without hurting themselves.

20:51 <Schism> Er, wait, not Sophia, what am I thinking?  That's, uh... Tiamat, right.

20:51 <Cepheid> Especially without using subweapons.

20:51 <Cepheid> Like... seriously.

20:51 <Schism> Aaaand... yeah, I used those frames to hit her from the shoulder.

20:51 <Cepheid> You can't get close to her without hurting yourself.

20:53 <Schism> Eh, wanna know how I damaged her without subweapons?

20:53 <Cepheid> Nah.

20:53 <Cepheid> I suspect it is Death Village + ?, which extends invulnerability frames.  Followed by damaging yourself with your caltrops.

20:54 <Schism> I... ...forgot I could use caltrops to damage myself.

20:54 <Cepheid> The biggest issue is knockback.

20:59 <Cepheid> Right.

20:59 <Cepheid> Stand in middle, double jump, axe her in the face.

21:00 <Schism> That's the ticket.

21:01 <Cepheid> At first I didn't try it 'cause I didn't think it had enough reach.

21:01 <Cepheid> Turns out it's just *BARELY* enough.

21:05 <Schism> Yeeeeah.  Those things seriously hurt.

21:07 <Cepheid> Bah, I messed up that run, got hit by tidal wave both times she used it.

21:09 <Schism> Ah, yeah.  It doesn't help that the safe spot is like 5 pixels wider than Lemeza.

21:10 <Cepheid> Right... after the tidal wave in the final stage, she follows up with laser, so best to move out of the way.

21:27 <Cepheid> And murals with glowing eyes. o3o

21:28 <Schism> And you're missing a grail point.

21:29 <Cepheid> Among other things.

21:29 <Cepheid> As you said, I've been through the ruins countless times, over 60+ hours.

21:33 <Schism> I don't have that Djed pillar you mentioned, and I have like three mantras.  I should probably go through and explore more.

21:34 <Schism> Well, sweep over the areas again, that is.

21:34 <Cepheid> Want a hint? :P

21:34 <Schism> Nah.  :P

21:34 <Cepheid> Good. :P

21:34 <Cepheid> By the by, sorry if I seemed irritable with you over the week.  While I seem to be under better control of my mood, extended periods of lack of progress still seem to make me... moody.

21:34 <Cepheid> As they would anyone, I imagine.

21:37 <Schism> Nah, s'alright.  And indeed.

21:38 <Cepheid> My gods this whip is nuts.

21:38 <Cepheid> 2 hits to kill a lizardman.

21:40 <Cepheid> ...

21:40 <Cepheid> I just found an item that really, REALLY would have helped with Tiamat.

21:40 <Schism> Oh?

21:40 <Cepheid> Fairy Clothes.

21:41 <Schism> Aha.

21:41 <Cepheid> Cuts damage in half.

21:43 <Cepheid> Finally some closure with that riddle.  Annoying, but worth it for the end.

21:44 <Cepheid> ...

21:44 <Cepheid> Why's the Shrine of the Mother warp point missing?

21:45 <Cepheid> ... Oh.

21:47 <Schism> That's the grail point to which I referred.

21:47 <Cepheid> I thought you meant more along the lines of "There's another grail point I missed."

22:26 <Thelema5> Hello everypony

22:29 <Cepheid> Morning.

22:30 <Cepheid> Schism:  Meanwhile, you appear to have an item I lack, from the sounds of things.

22:30 <Schism> Maybe?  Like I said, still don't have the Djed Pillar, I can't imagine what I've got that you don't.

22:30 <Cepheid> Well, technically you have two items I lack.

22:31 <Cepheid> You likely have Mulana.exe, from the Gate of Time, from what I recall you saying of that place.

22:31 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, the other item is a piece of software.

22:31 <Cepheid> Hah.

22:32 <Cepheid> Xelpud just mentioned the crazy-hidden area to me via e-mail.

22:33 <Cepheid> He asked if I was also almost done.

22:34 <Schism> Heh.

22:34 <Schism> Crazy-hidden area... oh right.  Hell Temple.  I guess it's possible to get to now.

22:35 <Schism> Er... sorry, I trust you knew about that ahead of time.

22:35 <Schism> I hope.  ._.

22:35 <Cepheid> It's been mentioned in the game.

22:35 * Schism nodnods.

22:35 <Cepheid> I actually found one of the areas mentioned that is associated with it.

22:36 <Cepheid> Knowing my luck, the item I need is contained in one of those murals that requires Snapshot.

22:36 <Cepheid> Guess while I'm at it, I can poke around for the mantras.

22:37 <Schism> Come to think, I have the Angel Shield, so I think there's a laser I need to get past.  If I can find my way to that room in the Chamber of Birth again, anyway.  Haaaate that area.

22:37 <Cepheid> Tower of Goddess, go right, down, left, down, down.  You'll arrive in the relevant area.

22:37 <Cepheid> I've got this map memorized to a T, almost.

22:38 <Schism> Yeesh.

22:38 <Cepheid> It's why metroidvanias are only of interest to me the first run through at 100%.

22:38 <Cepheid> Because I memorize the layouts nearly perfectly.

22:40 <Cepheid> Once I've 100%ed a game, there's no point playing it again.  Outside of hard difficulties, etc.

22:40 <Cepheid> I inevitably sequence break as much as I can.

22:41 <Cepheid> Hum, that room has changed.

22:41 <Cepheid> The room above the spike trap in Guidance Gate, the one where you hit the block in the mouth of the mural?  The block disappears at some point.  The room changes.

22:41 <Schism> Hmm.  A hint, clearly.

22:41 <Cepheid> Unintended one.

22:42 <Cepheid> It implies that the room was replaced.

22:43 <Cepheid> I mean, besides the obvious change in that all the La-Mulana crosses are now glowing pink.

22:44 <Schism> Hm.  And the crosses were added afterwards.

22:45 <Cepheid> Hum.

22:45 <Cepheid> There's a wall that can be struck down in the Mausoleum of Giants, like it can be broken.

22:45 <Cepheid> But when I hit it, the Eye of Retribution well... retributes me.

22:47 <Schism> Try hitting it from the other side?  Sometimes I've run into walls like that.

22:47 <Cepheid> No can do.  The other side leads to the room with that pit that drops down to the gate to the Graveyard of the Giants.

22:47 <Cepheid> I'm gonna hit it with bombs.

22:47 <Cepheid> They hit multiple times in rapid succession.

22:48 <Cepheid> Hum, nuttin'

22:50 <Cepheid> Oh, hey.  Mantra.
