    Dawg what is your bio on about?
    Your tanks are some of the most creative and unique stuff on the site, you’re one of very few builders that have an instantly recognizable style.

  • car.jpeg one month ago

    I’ve figured out what the issue was with collisions, this thing uses control bases for the suspension. In order to make this work with the refueling station I would need to replace them with normal springs.

  • how do i post something that doesn't immediately get deleted by mods? one month ago

    Because spam? You’re reposting things that already got removed?
    This is grounds for a temp ban I believe

  • SimplePlanes Builds in SimplePlanes 2 - Part Four one month ago

    @Graingy from a stack overflow thread I found quoting App Store EULA:

    Except as set forth in the next paragraph, an Application may not download or install executable code. Interpreted code may be downloaded to an Application but only so long as such code: (a) does not change the primary purpose of the Application by providing features or functionality that are inconsistent with the intended and advertised purpose of the Application as submitted to the App Store, (b) does not create a store or storefront for other code or applications, and (c) does not bypass signing, sandbox, or other security features of the OS.

    Mobile modding doesn’t have to be an arrangement of things already in the game, it just has to work a certain way that isn’t the way that it currently functions.

  • SimplePlanes Builds in SimplePlanes 2 - Part Four one month ago

    @Graingy I think they could make it work and even be pretty versatile. Based on just what’s currently possible even just in the mod tools they could 100% implement it even into the current version of SP. They probably just don’t want to do that kind of work on a game of its age. It doesn’t have to be limited either; it’s just a matter of finding a file format that will let everything work fairly efficiently.

  • SimplePlanes Builds in SimplePlanes 2 - Part Four one month ago

    @Graingy maybe an xml file with different points on the terrain, location of trees, etc. maybe some prefabs could exist or could be imported into this format (albeit a little inefficiently in terms of file size). Gaps could be filled in procedurally. This is already a thing with JNO and it could be implemented without crazy difficulty.

  • SimplePlanes Builds in SimplePlanes 2 - Part Four one month ago

    @Graingy but maps and such could be expressed that way.

  • SimplePlanes Builds in SimplePlanes 2 - Part Four one month ago

    @Graingy
    -Minecraft mods and world files
    -the literal airplanes available for this game
    -Fortnite maps
    -emulators

    The apple restriction is against unsigned code, which I take it to mean is stuff that is essentially additional chunks of the game being added that aren’t published through an authorized platform. Mod support, if we take that to mean specifically user-created content with scripting enabled, is 100% possible, it just requires an approach to compatibility that they did not take on SP1 all those years ago.

    On Android it’s much easier, they just gotta use a different backend

  • Hi, MSLITecnik here! one month ago

    Just sign in to Steam with your old account, no need to buy anything again

    Should even be able to keep all your save data because of the Steam cloud.

  • SPVR mods? one month ago

    From what I’ve heard you can run mods if you’re using the PCVR mode. Reshade as well as parts/map mods should all work fine. If you’re running it on a standalone headset you can not run mods as that version is basically a glorified Android build.

  • Simpleplanes Settings UI not appearing one month ago

    Deactivate all your mods and verify the integrity of your game files through Steam. This is a really strange bug but it might also help to roll back to an older version of the game. My memory on how to do this is foggy but it should be in the “Betas” tab of the game properties menu in Steam.

    @THEOKPILOT doesn’t that make the bars at the top of windows grey, not that blue gradient? Or are you tweaking additional things to make it look that way?

  • SimplePlanes 2 | Environments Part 1 one month ago

    Is there any chance of dropping the mod tools before the game so that modders can start cooking stuff up? Porting in the old maps and the like?
    Also that vehicle in the last screenshot is diabolical

    @THEOKPILOT check out the Linus Tech Tips forums, lots of like-minded individuals there as well as status updates and stuff like that. I would hesitate to comment there as almost everyone there will be more experienced (and older) but it is a very interesting place to check out.

  • should i remove the construction warning in my bio? one month ago

    No offense, but literally no one is emotionally invested except you. There’s a difference between off-topic (things that aren’t related to the game but are interesting) and stream of consciousness (posting literally whatever you feel like). This one falls solidly into the stream-of-consciousness category of posts that have no relevance to the game, aviation, or anything anyone cares about really. The forums are a place where this kind of stuff is acceptable to post, but as someone who used to do this I would encourage second guessing before you click the “submit” button if this is actually purposeful in any way. Putting 5 words in a bio isn’t something that needs to be questioned in public. Maybe in a chatroom, or in a Discord group or subreddit or something. The forums have got pretty brain-dead lately and I feel that this post is an example of the times. You’re not posting anything crazy unusual, but I find it very unfortunate that this is the direction that the forums are headed.

  • Late at night on Windows XP. one month ago

    Ok so does having your wallpaper be a solid color actually improve performance? I heard computer nerds back in the day liked to do that because it used less RAM than having an image.
    Also no shot that anyone would be using that resolution, the computer would be pretty much unusable if you couldn’t make out text lol
    Heck the NES used 480p 20 years before that

  • i DON'T remember creating this account on Juno one month ago

    Juno and SP share account systems, so you automatically get a JNO account when you make an SP account . Having an account on SP with a certain number of points (idk how many, I assume 1000+) gives your JNO account 100 free points so you can do things like make a bio and embed images in your posts.

  • WHAT one month ago

    I don’t recognize this browser (Chrome on iPad?).
    Websites load a file when you load them. This is an HTML file, which references a CSS file that’s stored on the server. So the CSS file might say that the text color is green so that when the HTML file loads some text it comes out as green regardless of what the HTML says. This is useful for web developers because instead of manually writing out the style rules for each page they can just make it reference the CSS file that’s on the server, which is why websites usually have fairly consistent styling across the board. What’s happening here is that for some reason (bad internet, DNS error, Lord knows) your device is able to load the HTML and the images that the HTML is referencing, but not the CSS file. That’s why all of this is default formatting (dead simple, all aligned to the left with no columns or anything, Times New Roman) which is usually defined by the browser iirc.

  • Graingy PSA: Graingy Official Website Sample one month ago

    @Graingy yeah that makes sense. You might want to make a template so that for each page you can effectively just write the descriptions or repurpose them from whatever random stuff you have on the SP site.

  • Graingy PSA: Graingy Official Website Sample one month ago

    Honestly pretty good. What’s complicated about getting more sub-pages? I feel like you can just make the pages, put the files into the server, and put links to them? Unless this is all being done with php or some godforsaken method that I do not understand. Also that logo in the background is very well executed.

  • SimplePlanes ownership issues on Google Play one month ago

    @Jaspy190 I’m not sure how their server bills work so I can’t say for sure, but this stuff usually works in price tiers so it’s unlikely that by yourself you would generate enough content to actually cost them more money. The problem starts when a few hundred or a few thousand people are doing it due to wide availability of APKs or whatever

  • SimplePlanes ownership issues on Google Play one month ago

    @Graingy I guess from a Jundroo perspective if this person wouldn’t be able to buy it anyway it’s not exactly hurting them, so they aren’t making money but piracy isn’t exactly hurting them in this instance. It’s more harmful on a larger scale when people use the website and upload content without paying so the developer salaries and the web hosting bills aren’t being subsidized.

  • SimplePlanes ownership issues on Google Play one month ago

    @voytek blud that’s called piracy, it’s illegal and is the same as theft. No hate, just letting you know what you’re doing might be a lil unethical
