Chapter 265: Chapter 178: Why Do All Protagonists Have a Little Sister? (2)
"Try your best to negotiate."
Chen Ba sighed, "Talking about future prospects and ideal ambitions is all nonsense; we just offer money, straightforward money."
Giving money is the most practical.
How many idealists are there, really?
Everyone is out here trying to make a living, just talk about salary and benefits, talking about ideals and the future beside making people laugh is useless.
In this regard, Tianba Studio is quite confident.
After all, they have "Divine Grace Animation" as a cash cow, bankruptcy is impossible in the short term; if they pay enough, there’s no worry about not being able to recruit people.
"What about the ga engine?"
After discussing the arrangents for setting up the motion capture team, Lu imdiately asked, "Ba, didn’t you say you want to specially develop a Tianba Engine?"
"Soon, don’t rush !"
Chen Ba felt speechless.
A ga engine isn’t sothing like cabbage, you can’t just churn it out as you wish.
Although he can cheat, the performance of the Iron Fool System is really worrying, brewing a ga engine takes at least two months of simulation.
That’s already quite impressive!
Two months’ ti to create a brand new ga engine from scratch in the gaming industry is absolutely miraculous.
Chen Ba glanced at it.
The progress bar of the system had reached 51%, it was estimated that in another 20 days, Tianba Studio would have a brand new ga engine.
So exciting!
The physical computing engine independently developed was already so realistic and powerful, what will this all-purpose ga engine specially made for AAA titles be like?
Can it catch up with Dream Building 6?
...
The news that Tianba Studio was secretly developing a ga engine was not deliberately concealed from others.
Mainly because Chen Ba didn’t want to hide it.
Releasing the news in advance, mixing truth with falsehood, to give everyone a precaution so that when a never-before-seen ga engine pops out, the whole industry won’t be confused.
Players were full of expectations for this mysterious Tianba Engine.
No one dared to think that it would reach the heights of well-known ga engines like Dream Building Engine and Origin Engine, nor did they think a first-gen engine from Tianba Studio could rival such mature engines.
After all, you’re just starting out, how could you compare with others who have updated and iterated several versions of their engines?
But based on the powerful realism of the ga physics engine of "Speeding Frenzy," everyone held very high expectations for this unknown Tianba Engine.
Chen Ba likewise.
But he knew more, so his thoughts differed from ordinary players,
The physics engine used by "Speeding Frenzy" was specially made for racing gas, with not much relation to this ga engine.
This ga engine’s main function is to cover most of Tianba Studio’s future ga developnts, not limited to racing thes.
In other words.
The physics engine for "Speeding Frenzy" was great, but it wasn’t the core of Tianba Engine, calling it a small plugin wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
Chen Ba added the core elent to the Tianba Engine, which was AI Artificial Intelligence!
Exactly!
This isn’t on the sa track as traditional ga engines. You can even understand this as Chen Ba specially crafted this substitute to fill in the art shortcoming of Tianba Studio.
Besides graphic rendering and physics simulation, Tianba Engine also includes currently popular AI illustration and AI animation functions.
"A ga engine of the era."
This was the only evaluation Chen Ba gave for this engine.
After he slogged hard for nearly a month, finally got the finished product, and went through multiple rounds of test usage, he finally understood why cheaters were universally condemned.
Cheating is indeed shaless!
While others were struggling with code, Tianba Studio had already begun leveraging AI for ga developnt.
"Amazing!"
Yang Dong also tried out the new engine, although he only gave it a brief taste, he could see that this Tianba Engine was indeed more powerful than expected.
The most intuitive experience was that the engine automatically generated various necessary art resources for the ga without needing "Alchemy."
"Alchemy" is a specialized term.
It refers to training AI to learn from a particular artist, to learn a certain specific painting style before it can produce various works in that style. This training process is also called alchemy feeding images.
The new engine avoids such hassle.
If you use this engine to develop a ga, you only need to start it, provide so preliminary ga art resources, set a basic frawork and art tone with the AI.
The rest can be left alone.
This is very convenient and saves ti and manpower; Tianba Studio doesn’t need to hire many full-ti art designers.
One or two people are all it takes.
These one or two full-ti art designers are responsible for determining the art tone and style of the ga, getting the ball rolling, then handing the rest over to the AI for automatic generation.
"For creating map resources, you just need to draw a village, and the AI can generate the entire continent’s map art resources..."
Speaking of this, Yang Dong smiled and said, "This is simply too convenient, and this AI not only draws but also automatically generates corresponding code."
This is what’s most impressive.
Just drawing is nothing special, but if it turns what it draws into ga content, that’s a bit over the top.
For instance, Yang Dong asked the AI to draw a church building within the Tianba Engine.
This building is not only an art resource image; it’s part of the ga project and can be interacted with, such as opening the door to visit inside or NPCs coming to the church to pray.
"But speaking realistically, AI is still AI, creating a ga can’t overly rely on these things, completely replacing humans is unrealistic."
"Nonsense!"
Chen Ba certainly knew this was unrealistic.
No matter how powerful the Tianba Engine is, it’s still just a ga engine, it can’t reach the point Yang Dong ntioned where it automatically generates a ga from specific instructions.
Up to the present, the features of the Tianba Engine only play a supplentary role, how well it works and how useful it is depends on how developers use it.
The engine is here, the motion capture team is also in place.
Chen Ba made a swift decision to use this brand-new Tianba Engine to create a super cool open-world role-playing ga set in a modern city.
He’s even decided on the na.
"Global Evolution!"
This is a story about "Spiritual Qi Revival," where all things evolve, and humans fall from their pedestal before reclaiming the top spot among the Ten Thousand Races with the main character driving change.
In AD 2045, the world suddenly changed.
Extre thunderstorms surfaced globally, accompanied by torrential rain, resembling an apocalypse.
This rain wasn’t ordinary...
"Did everyone who got rained on evolve?" Lu suddenly envisioned.
"Correct!"
Seeing Lu glance his way, Chen Ba guessed this lad had been reading too many online novels, and nodded, "The rain lasted a full month, and all animals or plants exposed to the rain underwent mutations."
Humans fell from their pedestal.
Fierce beasts rose; human firearms were completely ineffective, even plants beca horrifyingly strange, leaving humans weak and defenseless, forcing them to abandon vast territories and retreat to base cities.
The story originates from Jiangning Base City.
The ga’s protagonist, Chen Yun, experiences the loss of his parents during the first beast invasion after the world mutation, struggling to survive with his sister Chen Jia.
"Why does such a protagonist always have a sister?"
Lu wanted to quip on who initiated this trope, making it so that subsequent works across gas, ani, and novels all featured a sister.
"How would I know, anyway everyone has a sister, so our protagonist will have one too..."
Chen Ba didn’t think it mattered.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s a sister or a brother, ultimately it adds depth to the male lead, mainly serving as a tool character, not sothing worth fussing over.
Moreover.
Other protagonists start with deceased parents, a sibling, and a house. Tianba Studio shouldn’t break the norm, and since everyone has a sister, they should have one too!
As long as she’s not a burden...
