space-nerds-in-space VS OpenRGB

I don't know if this counts, but I wrote a parser for "the ship's computer" in my game, "Space Nerds in Space". It's described here: https://scaryreasoner.wordpress.com/2016/05/14/speech-recogn...

I also wrote some toy "interactive fiction" things (with less sophisticated parsers) in python and Lua as a way to gain familiarity with those languages, not that they are very interesting in and of themselves, though they demonstrate a fairly standard technique behind these kinds of games in a compact way.

I have this book, which I got about 10 years ago, and found it very helpful when writing my own (primitive, not even close to state of the art) game in C, and I have recommended this book to others on reddit many times over the years. My copy of the book still has the CD inside, never opened. I never looked at it, mainly because I found there's no need, the algorithms are not very long for the most part, and I needed to understand them and fit them into my codebase anyway.

Space Nerds in Space - multi-player starship bridge simulator so you can captain your starship through adventures with your friends.

Space Nerds in Space (github) is an open source spaceship bridge simulator so you can captain your starship through space adventures with your friends. Each player mans a station on a simulated starship. There are stations for Navigation, Weapons, Engineering/Damage Control, Comms, Science, and a gamemaster station. It's written in C, with a Lua API for writing "mission scripts". Multiple starships can be present in the simulation at once if you can manage to gather enough friends to crew them. It even supports speech recognition and natural language parsing if you're so inclined.

This is what gaseous-giganticus uses. Combined with some other techniques, it can help with making some clouds for earthlike planets, but not in real time. Mentioned here previously. The process I use for making earthlike planets with clouds for Space Nerds in Space is described here.

As an example, I made this game which is basically a multiplayer star trek game where each player is a member of the crew of a spaceship. There are "scenarios" -- little missions -- that are coded in Lua, some written by me, some by other people. You can see them here: https://github.com/smcameron/space-nerds-in-space/tree/master/share/snis/luascripts/MISSIONS There's a Lua API my game provides described here: https://github.com/smcameron/space-nerds-in-space/blob/master/doc/lua-api.txt

Not an MMORPG, just a LAN game really, but my spaceship bridge simulator Space Nerds in Space is open source (GPL2) and in C. The network server architecture is pretty simple, TCP, and a read thread and a write thread per client, which would be a bad design if there were a large number clients, but for less than 30 or so clients (realistic number of clients is 5-10, leaning towards 5), it's absolutely fine (KISS principle). There's some documentation about how it all works here: Hacking on Space Nerds in Space and the website for the game is here: https://spacenerdsinspace.com

I have an open source game project I've been working on since 2012 or so. I have received patches from 23 people during that time. Maybe 4 or 5 have made significant contributions (more than drive-by bug fixes, and I'm counting myself in those numbers). Well, you can take a look for yourself and see how the contribution graphs look

The nvidia proprietary driver sets this anyway after installation. This fixes the issue of KDE Wayland often times freezing on first login before nvidia proprietary drivers are installed. latest mesa release version provided for AMD/Intel desktop/GL drivers, mesa-git vulkan drivers provided for latest vulkan fixes/updates, built and updated regularly (every few weeks to a month on average) glibc patched with clone3 disabled (fixes CEF compatibility in applications using outdated CEF such as Discord, Steam beta) glibc patched with broken commits reverted to allow EasyAntiCheat to work for Rogue Company dnf max parallel downloads increased to 6 gst-editing-services disabled — causes WINE to hang when creating new prefixes lspci symlink from /usr/sbin/lspci to /usr/bin/lspci for Dying Light: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/forum/topic/2766/post_id=17381 ‘nobara-controller-config’ package provided for easy installation of xone and xpadneo drivers and firmware. gnome variable refresh rate patches added for mutter: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1154 gnome mutter check-alive-timeout increased from 5 seconds to 30 seconds. This is the amount of time gnome waits before trying to determine if an application is not responding. At 5 seconds it almost immediately triggers for league of legends (and some other applications) if those applications are still in the loading phase. We feel 30 seconds is a much more reasonable wait time. gnome mutter patched with x11 fractional scaling: https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/mutter/-/raw/ubuntu/master/debian/patches/ubuntu/x11-Add-support-for-fractional-scaling-using-Randr.patch gnome mutter wayland and x11 fractional scaling enabled by default: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/HiDPI#Fractional_scaling gnome shell patched with https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2358 to allow gnome-extension-manager to auto-update without needing gnome-extension-app installed. (They both function the same but gnome-extension-manager allows management of extensions without a browser). gamescope version regularly updated goverlay version regularly updated mangohud version regularly updated vkbasalt version regularly updated vm.max_map_count = 16777216 set by default for Star Citizen xwayland patched with fix for locked fps on some systems: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/home:hwsnemo:xwayland/xwayland/xwayland-vsync.diff?expand=1 supergfxctl and gnome extension + kde plasmoid enabled for laptops. Vendor agnostic and works with any combination of intel/amd/nvidia gpus.

I have a 30 series ASUS card, and Armory Crate didn't even detect my Strix 3080. Took me awhile to remove all of their bs software from my system (big thanks to Autoruns and BCUinstaller). Now I use OpenRGB to control everything.

Have you created an issue here?

OpenRGB doesn't see my Steelseries Apex 9 keyboard - is there any way to fix this? I saw adding Apex 9 recognition was requested here and a GitLab branch that adds the Apex 9 recognition was even linked but I don't know how to add this user-submitted update to OpenRGB. Any tips?

I'd much rather we had some convergence on a common standard so we could all just use something like OpenRGB, except knowing the monkey's paw that is modern tech we'd just end up in relevant XKCD territory.

OpenRGB is my current choice, open source is always a plus.

Before upgrading myself to a Keychron Q3 i used OpenRGB to control RGB on Logitech trash hardware : https://i.imgur.com/mkzcQDU.png
