2026-03-11T01:02:18  <OpenMW-bridge> <Matt> is the length of the parry window dependent on your block and/or weapon skill?
2026-03-11T01:02:24  <OpenMW-bridge> <.arrean> yes
2026-03-11T01:02:31  <OpenMW-bridge> <Matt> dope
2026-03-11T01:02:39  <OpenMW-bridge> <.arrean> and current fatigue
2026-03-11T01:05:24  <OpenMW-bridge> <.arrean> to clarify - you can hold normal "guard" for as long as you want, for now. "perfect parry" window is 0.0seconds + curved(weapon) *0.6 + curved(block) * 0.2 . All of that multiplied by current fatigue percentage of max.  curved in current implementation means that every next 25 skill points are 9% less effective towards this calculation. So e.g. skill of 50 will not provide 50 points, but  ~47
2026-03-11T01:05:48  <OpenMW-bridge> <Matt> makes sense
2026-03-11T01:06:01  <OpenMW-bridge> <.arrean> I'm actually about to drop skill impact on perfect parry about in half, they feel too long

2026-03-11T04:08:53  <OpenMW-bridge> <josal32> Playing around with a shader "rope cable" for the grappling bracer. Occlusion is still wonky in third person when you rotate the camera. The rope also highlights the positional drift that happens when the player interacts with objects and terrain; the player's left/right and forward/back positions shift in ways that feel off. Feels like there should be some kind of "gravity" pulling the player toward the point they
2026-03-11T04:08:54  <OpenMW-bridge> actually targeted. Right now the rope's anchor point while rappelling goes from the targeted location to above the player's head. Ideally I'd love to attach it to the bracer's barrel instead, but I'm not sure how to assign shaders to bones or anything like that yet. I'd also imagine the arm wearing the bracer would be extended overhead while hanging, since it'd be supporting the body's weight. I'm open to suggestions on how to improve
2026-03-11T04:08:54  <OpenMW-bridge> things or methods for attaching shaders to bones.  https://youtu.be/WG5YdUHE5o8

2026-03-11T11:56:14  <OpenMW-bridge> <cybvep> https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/58356 installed this mod for fun. HBFS lowers item condition of items used by the enemies on their death. You won't believe what happened some time after I looted the slain enemy who had a broken magical dagger... :36vehks:  I love when mods interact like that
2026-03-11T11:57:09  <OpenMW-bridge> <sosnoviybor> Like model-accurate collisions?
2026-03-11T11:59:31  <OpenMW-bridge> <stormatronach> Yeah, kind of
2026-03-11T11:59:55  <OpenMW-bridge> <stormatronach> I spawn a line along the blades and check for a minimum distance
2026-03-11T12:17:51  <OpenMW-bridge> <sosnoviybor> Neat
2026-03-11T12:18:23  <OpenMW-bridge> <sosnoviybor> Though when I tried mod with "realistic" attack reach it didn't feel that fun to play 🧐

2026-03-11T12:19:57  <OpenMW-bridge> <stormatronach> I'm just toying with the concept for parries
2026-03-11T13:24:29  <OpenMW-bridge> <.arrean> Hmmmm. I was toying with doing something similar for the purpose of properly spawning impact VFX. How tricky was on the neighbor engine?
2026-03-11T13:25:34  <OpenMW-bridge> <stormatronach> Relatively easy once you jump through the silly hoops

2026-03-11T14:59:38  <OpenMW-bridge> <hangon3415> so happy to see lua progress
2026-03-11T16:00:02  <OpenMW-bridge> <maxyari> bwahaha doing that in a shader is pre smart ngl
2026-03-11T16:01:37  <OpenMW-bridge> <maxyari> Do you think its possible in openmw? Since there are no bone position infos, nor a way to figure equippem weapon info, that i know of - I really have some doubts if this can currently be done
2026-03-11T16:03:39  <OpenMW-bridge> <.arrean> I haven't found a way yet. I can approximate it with actor positions and some offsets, but that is a bit jank, and only really works on NPCs and humanoid/bipedal creatures
2026-03-11T16:04:30  <OpenMW-bridge> <.arrean> Which, for my purposes is enough, but needs refining, and I'm busy making dremora/golden saints work with parry controller at all
2026-03-11T16:21:00  <OpenMW-bridge> <josal32> Is wolvman still working on his character controller stuff? I remember hearing something about bone movements and animations

2026-03-11T23:04:04  <OpenMW-bridge> <jubek9513> OH MY GOD. 😆
2026-03-11T23:05:02  <OpenMW-bridge> <jubek9513> I remember in a game I've played, Arcanum (top-view RPG early 2000) first time I played, I dropped a dagger on the ground while shuffling through my inventory, then a random fellow came by and picked up my dagger.
2026-03-11T23:05:12  <OpenMW-bridge> <jubek9513> "What the hell did you just do?!?!" I was baffled. XD
2026-03-11T23:07:49  <OpenMW-bridge> <cybvep> Dude, when I dropped meat for my dog to eat in KCD, some guy came over and took it before Mutt. It was mad :36vehks:
2026-03-11T23:08:24  <OpenMW-bridge> <jubek9513> HAHAHAHAHA!
2026-03-11T23:08:37  <OpenMW-bridge> <jubek9513> That is crazy!
2026-03-11T23:10:25  <OpenMW-bridge> <jubek9513> KCD is one of the games next on my to-play list. It's a nice preview of the game. 😛
2026-03-11T23:11:35  <OpenMW-bridge> <jubek9513> I'm definitely going to get a dog in that game too. Now I'll be wary of passersby when I'll try to feed it. 😆
2026-03-11T23:12:43  <OpenMW-bridge> <sosnoviybor> I wouldn't recommend it yet, because it adds quite a bit of lua overhead even when idling

2026-03-11T23:13:35  <OpenMW-bridge> <cybvep> I'm in no rush. I will probably wait for the first update or two. These kinds of mods tend to get better quickly after release and the author is very active and responsive.
