@@Dumb_Dash It's all the parts of a game being made one by one. He's making all sorts of systems so that he can then either make a game with the parts, or maybe sell the project as a template for others to use as a starting point for their games. I'm not sure what his endgame is with this, but I'm excited no matter what.
Marrow is still better so far in my opinion just because it’s already polished, but nimso does take the time to perfect every little detail like “wibble wobble” for example. Eventually this system will be ahead I think, but not anytime soon. Nimso is also just one person and the Marrow engine was created by a whole team.
@@Fllook12 to put it in simple terms, bonelab or bone works puts bandaids over their physics by implementing code. If they have a problem in the physics they just put a code bandaid over it and move on. While nimso is trying to let physics do physics and have it just physic. You can watch Mind Palace Of Madness’s video on Nimso’s project to better understand what I mean.
the biggest flex in the whole video is when you opened the case to find that you had accidentally closed it with two shell casings in it which had not only stayed in the case, but were rolling around realistically and could be swatted away with perfect collision
What's most impressive to me is how quickly you appear to be able to iterate to a solution for problems which most other devs have failed to solve in many years. You're solving so many completely different problems in what appears to be a relatively short timeframe and that's also a tip of the hat to the engine flexibility you have developed. Super impressive work and you deserve all the success.
I would say it's because he really has no time restraints/worry for this being an actual GAME yet so that definitely helps, but it is still incredibly impressive. Something like Boneworks/Bonelab was trying to do what he was doing and making a full fledged game at the exact same time but this is levels above in terms of actual physics polish imo
A suggestion with the pistol magazines: It might be easier with the controller collision to have the mags be grabbed from the bottom in a cupping sort of pose. Not only that, but it’s also how people grip them in real life.
I've noticed that when you play specific characters those characters head details poke through the camera. Wether you like or dislike this I would like to recommend a system where those details only appear when you look up or down as they slowly float into the screen and out. This way it's not constantly floating in your view out of nowhere but you are more immersed into the characters.
There isn't any intentional design there yet. I just took the models as they are and used the ragdoll system. For the proper demo/game I would have custom models that actually support culling the face and accessories. Additional bits like viewable noses or glasses frames would be a system on their own.
I really admire your work in this project. It would be great if the game could simulate in the sword or melee fighting “binding, winding and parrying”techniques from medieval combat, where the strength and weight of the enemy can influence the sword fight. For example, if the enemy is stronger or their weapon is heavier, or his weapon, they could gradually overpower the player's blade if the player’s character is tired or significantly weaker ( and vice versa ). This mechanic would add a realistic layer to the combat, that i havent seem at any vr melee game, like, when it happens, only happens in the enemy, not on the player. I know your game alredy have something like this at certain points.
NPCs are built exactly the same as the player, so everything they do will rely on their strength and weight. There's a lot more that needs to be done for NPCs to act in a way that won't be the same as what you might have seen before.
This! A realistic ish sword, axe, club hack n slash game that shows true interaction. Doesn't have to be a VR game, but maybe both. The game engine is so good
@@TruthIsKey369no it’s a game engine and think of everything else you see as a showcase of what you can accomplish. We need it as a Vr game, not no ordinary game because we already have an ordinary games. Once this game engine is complete, we can make so much things
Hey NimSony, have you thought about uploading some clips to TikTok? I noticed that you started making RU-vid shorts, and TikTok seems to get way more engagements for indie devs in comparison. The developer for Wrought Flesh, who also has an active RU-vid channel, reported that his TikTok uploads which were just clips from his RU-vid were making millions of impressions and bringing lots of people onto his main channel. I'm not a TikTok shill, (I don't even have an account,) I just think it would bring more people on board. This project deserves so much more attention!
Whatever your game ends up becoming, i really hope it'll have a mod sdk, because i would love to make mods and custom levels for a game like this. Love your work nimso :)
This is by far the most impressive VR game engine I have ever seen. Every game in VR is just… rough. Whether your character is clipping through walls or having your magazine phase through your gun every game is riddled with these physics bugs, but your seems so smooth at all times. And even the small things make a big difference like how changing your grip seems effortless compared to Bone lab or Blade and Sorcery or how watching your character start to realistically army crawl instead of having your legs fly around like in many other VR games makes it feel so much more real. I wish you well on your project!
It would be really cool to see you recreate something like Corridor Digital's Tacticool Reloads with this new mag system - it seems like it might work (though also might be impossibly difficult)
@@NimsoStudios thats exactly what I was thinking of when you pulled that nifty trick off the first time. Can't wait to see inventive ways people use this to get clips lol
I love how happy this guy is. If you do a type of funding, I don't normally do/chip in any $$ but I will be for this! Kepp up your amazing work and amazing personality!
I dont even own a VR headset nor played a VR game but I will probably buy one just to play your game sir. I watch all of your videos on your new engine and I am hype tbh
I have a suggestion for your videos. I noticed that when you are aiming your gun. Your non-dominant eye is being tracked through the lens. Therefore when you look down a reticle it looks different from what you're seeing when you're playing your game. I would suggest looking to see if you can record out of the other lens to match up with your dominant eye. Lots of people are right-eyed dominant but they're capture software captures their left eye.😊
Guessing this is what he's seeing with the magazine round count as well... the numbers aren't 'going through' he's just seeing them with his dominant eye.
@IamtheWV17 Really. No, the text in VR is rendering right through the objects including walls. The reason that it's set to Left Eye is because even if I change it every time I press play it resets to Left Eye.
I am so incredibly excited for this. So many things can be accomplished with what you've made. It's so refreshing to see pure creativity and the will to make something good shine above all else in your work :)
okay Ive got some cool ideas which Ill just list. -Cars -Trains -Seats/Seatbelts -Backpacks I think all of these would be really cool, and for cars and that sort of thing you could have it so you can move around in the car until you use the seat belt, and back packs (If you could get cloth working) would be awesome too
Oh also you should make it so when your using the wrong magazine type your gun can jam, it would make it so you have to pull the slide a couple of times to lose the jam
Just wanted to say that I love what you are doing, and that you also share it with us here on RU-vid. Looking forward trying this myself one day. Or even license the physics system for my own games. Keep it up, you're fantastic!
you're incredible, the way you just casually show something that blows me away shows how smart you are, i really hope this goes far not only for the vr gaming industry but because you deserve all of the money in the world
Add a feature to where if you're holding down trigger on a gun that is not primed or has no ammo you're able to Rag doll it pretty much allowing you to rotate it forward and to let you add velocity so you can spin the gun just something that I thought would be cool.
And also I think it would be cool if you made guns to where they actually had a holster to where you have to slide it down. Kind of like how you did your mag So you could slide your gun down until it clicks.
This engine looks incredible. I really hope this gets used for a big online game in the future. I wanna interact with online friends with physics and weight in ways i cant in games like VRchat. Even just being able to physically grab and shake someones hand would be incredible. I wish you all the luck and fortune in your development journey.
well, the multiplayer is likely fairly easy to implement, but from my experience with physics systems I know that fully simulated interactions with other players is already extremely difficult in conventional multiplayer, and probably even more so in vr. I'm not saying he can't make it work, but it's not likely to work or be available any time soon. most likely the multiplayer will only have very basic player physics interactions, or none at all.
This system is awe inspiring, as someone who has been playing vr for about 7 years this looks to be one of the most amazing frameworks in gaming period. I also wonder, would multiplayer ever be in the cards for this project? If not I’m sure this engine would still be the BEST but I feel as if the potential to experience this with friends would make for a truly breathtaking experience.
Thanks for the compliments. The systems involved in this have been improving steadily for about 7 or 8 years also, videos showcasing the early versions of this stuff go back to the start of the channel. It's easier to get an idea of the plan if we separate what's being shown here in to 2 things. The mechanics and everything under the hood I've called the Hybrid Engine. The game itself is currently named ProjectTX but that's just the working title, it might change. For this first game, I want to keep these raw mechanics, really showing how much intrigue and fun can come from the nature of these mechanics, though it'll still be a proper game, a relatively simple storyline and simple progression from start to finish. The Hybrid engine is a pretty big collection of systems but I want to keep pushing it further. I plan on licensing it at least in parts to make these standards usable outside of just my own games. Multiplayer will be possible in future, but I will be making more games after this one to start implementing those extensions to the engine.
i know this is one of many ideas, but in the future you should make custom inventory positions, like you open up the options panel and a mannequin pops out or something and you can move the places were you put guns and stuff. kinda like the cosmetics for steam vr, also you prob already had this in mind but custom gun and mag offsets when you reload guns might be cool.
Hi ! I just heard about your work, and I devoured all your videos during the day, it's really an awesome job ! I first wanted to send you my congratulations and inform you that you have just awakened my hope in VR, not really in the big studios, but in the more modest ones, those who really seek to revolutionize the usual engines and their usage ;)
Hey Nimso! I have a suggestion for further enhancing the dual wielding mechanics of your game! The proper way to do a dual wielding reload in real life is to drop the mags from both pistols, then transition the pistol in your offhand over to your dominant hand, so that you are holding both pistols side by side in one hand. Then you grab two magazines with your left hand in the spaces between your thumb, index finger, and middle finger, then guide the two magazines into the two pistols in your other hand at the same time. If you could incorporate a system that allows you to attach the pistol in one hand to the side of another pistol facing away from the palm it is being held in, so that it is "grabbed" and remains stationary and a way to grab two magazines side by side with the other hand, kind of like H3VR's mag palming system, (you could also disable grabbing two magazines if you have two different kinds of pistols in one hand, so you would need to index two different magazine types, and might need to do two grabbing and loading operations for both pistols) that would easily make your game the best dual wielding VR experience in existence. The closest thing you can get to a system like this in other games like bonelab is to balance one pistol on top of the other, and grab and insert a single magazine two times. This can be fairly practical with some practice, but you can still only do it when standing still, because the moment you start moving, the balanced pistol will fall away, and sometimes bringing a magazine into proximity with the magwell of a loaded pistol may cause it to automatically eject the loaded pistol's magazine, which is super aggravating. H3VR's mag palming system helps with this to some extent, but it is still super janky trying to insert both magazines at the same time and often, you'll end up just inserting both magazines one at a time. It would be a dream come true to see this incorporated into your game. I have been wanting to see this done properly in a VR game for such a long time now. Not even once in any video game have I ever seen a faithful representation of a tandem pistol reload. Thanks a bunch!
Any chance you'll partner up with another studio to create a full fledged game with stuff like a campaign with a story, and character progression to keep people playing, and maybe co-op? I can only imagine how successful a game like Destiny, Warframe, or the Division would be for the VR medium if it was made by a AAA company. And unfortunately you can see that even huge studios have issues with even the most fundamental VR gameplay design. You obviously have made the most perfected VR gameplay yet, and if it were incorporated into a live service game.... the money to be made would be crazy.
Partnering with other studios is something I'm hoping for in future. Having said that though I generally don't have the same development principles as the modern large companies. I want to push innovation while also ensuring high quality standards. Nimso Studios will primarily produce games that push new ideas, rather than following the general trends in gaming. I intend for it to be a trend setter instead of trend follower.
You should make it so any object that accelerates up when under the transporty pipe gets pulled up. Would let the player jump up the pipe instead of having to press a button! Could even let the player throw in items to throw them to a platform at the top or something
It currently pushes anything within the pipe up while active. Technically you can stand on any object going up, but while you're in the pipe it will be pushing the player up anyway. These are just simple things I did for testing what's possible with the physics setup. In the final game I'll have plenty of physics puzzles and mechanical structures to fiddle with.
I can't begin to imagine how many cool game modes or levels that could be made with this engine! Especially if it was a game like TF2, since that game has both weapons and crazy fan maps where you can see players chilling by a beach or trying to platform for secrets. But that's just one example of infinite possibilities!
Incredible work! Congratulations. 💯👏🏻 I am Hyped. With a system like yours, it will be possible to develop a game similar to Resident Evil 4 VR... (which I already played, and I can say it is excellent), or even a clone of "Half-Life 2" (for VR) or "Alyx". Although to be honest, I'm more of a "Mario VR" guy, I would really like to play a clone of Super Mario 3D in VR 😁
I have some questions. 1-are we getting the effect of the shells coming out of the gun? 2-theoractly we could throw a magazine in the air and then swing the gun just at the right time to reload? 3-are gonna get a realistic holster?
You should do a video talking with Anton, the creator of hotdogs, horseshoes, and hand grenades. His game has a lot of gun physics as well and it would be really interesting to listen to :)
I usually don't comment on videos, but I have to say, I am amazed by your work! The quality and dedication you put into it are incredible. I wish you the best of luck, and as soon as I can buy this VR locomotion system from you, i will! 😁 Wishing you great success and that you never have to worry about money. Keep up the fantastic work. The hype is real! PS: From what i can see, everything should work perfectly fine in a 0g enviroement (no gravity), is that correct?
You're doing alot of tech working for all these systems and it looks great. If you make paid asset for all these systems i think it will be very popular, so people could do boneworks like physics and concentrate on game itself, not on engine implementation. I wish we have more games with this kind of physics, but no one could just do that because there is no such systems on the market and making it from scratch looks like pain in ass. Not sure you consider making public asset out of it though
i think i remember him saying he's gonna make the engine available at one point? i sure hope so cause this seems like the VR breakthrough we needed (as long as its highiy customizable)
When your finished with this you gotta make a Mario type game with these physics cuz your cat and all the textures you have remind me of the games and you added the Mario pipe
it would be cool that with the attachment system there was an item like a belt that you can wrap around your character's hips and that gives you the ability to attach things such as a gun to your character
I use the same button for pocket activation and energy grab, and I don't currently have any head direction checks, so if there's no pocket access the gun will fall and immediately entered energy grab area while I pulled my hand away.
