Ask Burggit!

Ever had a question you wanted to ask? Get an opinion on something?

Well, here's the place to do it! Ask the community pretty much anything.

I have a bunch of things I have cooking, kinda on and off.

  • Working with @[email protected] on Burggit, obviously.

  • Have a minecraft modding project I work on occasionally. Not something I think I'll ever share publicly (might share some screenshots at some point though.).

  • There's a super secret super cool project I've been working on for Shota Services, which I hope people will enjoy when it comes out.

  • As well as a bunch of smaller things like tweaking various sites and some other things which are too early for me to reveal.

What have you been doing to express your creativity recently?

What have you been doing to express your creativity recently?

This is such a motivational question. Because what have I been doing that's creative lately? Not a lot! I've basically been consuming things. After I got a job again (very good thing) I was super busy. I thought I'd get back into my projects once the job stabilized, but that hasn't happened. And it's not going to happen unless I actively start making some changes.

So here are some plans:

  • Been wanting to do more with AI, both art and text. Bought a new GPU so that's a start. It's something that has fascinated me ever since I ran ELIZA as a kid. Also, I'm hoping this will help me express myself more clearly.
  • I was having a lot of fun writing simple calculator apps and games. It was a creative challenge to produce something on such a limited platform. My goal is to dedicate some time on Sundays for this.

If you want to muck around with AI, I'd recommend taking a look at Kaggle. They'll just give you a bunch of boxes to run machine learning & stuff on, completely free. They also give everyone an allocation of 30 hours/week of access to an Nvidia P100 GPU.

Thanks! Since I sent that I've I purchased a GTX 3060 12GB and it's been working well so far.

I work on coding a genshin impact private server. It take the somehow acquired from the client resources and tries to emulate the behavior of the server. Super buggy, but I'm slowly ironing out bugs and making the quests possible without using too many manual override commands.

Interesting. Didn't know something like that was possible

Theoretically, you can basically do this for any game (or similar software) that primarily runs on your computer, but connects up to a server for various purposes. If you know what information your game sends up, and what the server sends down, it's entirely possible to create an alternative server that sends down the right information, along with some method of redirecting the game to your new server.

The biggest examples would be things like wiimmfi or pokemon event distribution servers
