I'm not making GTA 7 - Devlog 10

Can a solo developer make a game as complex as GTA San Andreas?

Do you think a trailer is necessary to launch a Steam page? Join the channel to get access to these irresistible emoji kzbin.info/door/RhfRoASZt6WTYeOODihxFgjoin

I have questions is there gonna be mobile version of the game

[@Marcis.]

Very unlikely

[@user-uo9qt4rt7h]

OK so is the game gonna have mod Support like workshop on steam

[@Dominikkkkkkkkkkk]

Trailer would be nice isnt needed tho

[@olbapinidlos3708]

@@Marcis. I have a question will there be a sega genesis version of the game

[@Ceeed100]

crazy how old we are that people think this is GTA lol The good old Driver seems to be forgotten ayyy

[@ethanwasme4307]

gta3

[@VortexStory]

In fact, it's much closer to the Driver series, which is a good thing!

[@terrazicaio]

Its insulting calling your game a GTa colne when its clearly a driver 3 clone with driver 2 graphics =P Jokes aside, i do love the style you achieved, a perfect mix of old ps1 asthetic with modern touches like better lighting and damage models

[@rEd1337]

Things like these 3:10 are screaming how good gamedev you are man. You care about what you do, you want to make a world which feels alive... I have nothing but respect. Holy shit, keep up the great work

[@JuanGamer0202]

To be honest, its the first time I see a video of your channel and I just gave it a chance cuz it realy looks like Driver

[@wrefrme]

instant Driver feel. let us know when preorder drops :)

[@zombie4034]

Been a while, I'm still hyped for this.

[@adsz8426]

4:40 WooooooooooW this is amazing damages system

[@breadop67]

As a fellow game dev it honestly annoys me way too much when people call all open world driving, shooting games "GTA clones" or "games like GTA" because their just not. Not every game is based on GTA. Just annoying. Anyway, love the game progress so far!

[@jenkims1953]

Clearly this game is a GTA clone

[@breadop67]

@@jenkims1953 May I ask how? If you really wanna say it's a "clone" of a game, wouldn't it be the DRIVER series? Car based gameplay? police? limited out of car gameplay? Still this game is a complete league of it's own. It's not a clone of anything. While it has features of games we all know it's not a clone of anything. Just watch more videos on the game.

[@jenkims1953]

@@breadop67 he says it himself in the video its a gta clone

[@jenkims1953]

5:39

[@jenkims1953]

he also states at the beggining of the video that you can drive cars and run around and shoot people and there will be cops but its not gta. Well it is not GTA because its a gta clone

[@JoeyBonzo]

Feels like we've come such a long way from setting up the car collisions

[@xb2856]

Glad you are still working on this project, love to see updates.

[@razvanivanco8613]

honestly cant wait to play this game it looks so good already

[@B_Leech]

Happy to hear from you. Respect

[@AaronMYoung]

Woop another video! Fantastic as always! I can't wait to drive around the parking garage!

[@bahshas]

in the future making a video game is going to be as easy as writing a book and making a good video game is going to be as hard as writing a good book

[@FirstCrimson]

You're using some pretty awesome tech, never knew that plugin existed for creating instanced meshes. Could be worth learning how to make more complex blueprints that use instanced meshes, for the example of the parking lot at least I think it's definitely doable, might just need a bit of work to get going. Not sure if it's entirely useful for that use-case but I'm sure something else will come up in the future. Keep up the great work, loved the video!

[@artoodiitoo]

Even youtube labeled this as GTA San Andreas xD It looks very much like Driver tho, good luck with the project! I always loved Reflections' games

[@PatrykPonichtera]

Looking forward to wishlisting it on steam

[@oculoids]

wow what a long way, i remember when you only had the car and some street, now we have a city, i wish i could be as committed then i will actually see progress in my project

[@doomstarrobo7807]

Unreal can already convert meshes into HISM or Intstanced static meshes. Select all the meshes and then go to merge actors. Then go to batch.

[@btmhustles2265]

im working on a little game atm bro trying to get it to a decent demo so i can post my first devlogg.. great channel i subscribed looking for awsome developers to get inspired from.. i love this old style graphics aswell..

[@mishovy1599]

this channel is a gift from the gods

[@portersky]

Cool stuff, keep it up.

[@TranscendentalAirwaves]

Looks amazing! Like Driver 1 or 2 mixed with GTA. Love it!

[@vantablack6288]

man this game really feels like final fantasy 7

[@SpaghettiniFiveMillion]

Interesting video. I like the car damage model. However I feel the parking garage piece count is over kill. It seems like most of the pieces are just cuboids without 3 faces. A single wall section could be replaced with a single cuboid with the vertices stretched to desired length and the texture could just be tiled. It might even be possible to merge the inner vertices to create a corner without needing a separate corner piece. I mostly do 3D modelling and I haven't coded any mesh generation, so take the advice with a grain of salt.

[@OpenMawProductions]

Everybody knows this is a Body Harvest clone.

[@DatGuyGLK]

I was about to mention that you can use Packed level Instances to comfortably create prefabs and Unreal automatically batches meshes together, but I realized you are on UE4.

[@MrRudiMentary]

I really wonder why you couldn't just keep the laggy separate object version in another level and then convert it to 1 static mesh every time you make a change you want to put into the actual level. How often are you really going to edit the parking garage?

[@Summmer85]

I really like what you doing. I would become your padawan.

[@Bigsperg]

I'm trying to figure out how to make lights on the buildings for my game

[@bahshas]

i guess devs back then (psx/ps2) did not have modularity. they had to think of something and make it as a single thing and if they wanted to change it they had to change the whole single thing. is that right?

[@yourcommander3412]

I think they had modularity but it was directly merged down in the modelling package.

[@GoldenCoastGTA]

No frustum culling or occlusion?

[@Pixels4Games]

Hey I love your game. I dreamed of making such a game too but so far we made only 2D games, but maybe one day... :D Keep going man, it will be a great game one day. ;) - Dan

[@yourcommander3412]

Always possible you'd create something that R* will eventually steal cause it improves the feel of an open world game. Rather then chasing every feature and and nuance of a triple AAA developer. Besides its all about fun in the end anyways. People just want to turn their brains off from the world and goof around for a few hours.

[@dragoburnhard]

would it be funnier if people called it a driver clone lol but as for instant's mesh's... not sure if your going to have the benefit you want when you expand to larger levels..... (physics acting crazy... at least it's not a BSP hole lol) as for steam page you need to be alot more along in development before a steam page to be effective...(it's very easy to get lost in the crowd of indi games right now)

[@VortexStory]

To be honest, it looks MUCH more like a Driver game than GTA.

[@Marcis.]

Hi VortexStory! Love your driver videos. Been watching for a while now!

[@VortexStory]

Thanks! I don't understand why I didn't come across this project sooner! Does it have a demo or something to make a video on it?

[@Marcis.]

Hehe... who knows! There isn't a demo at the moment. I'm still putting the pieces together. I had an idea to make a test build for people to try the handling to see how it feels.

[@thatoneguyyouforgotthenameof]

Yo this game is open world with pixel textures it’s *literally a Minecraft clone*

[@thatoneguyyouforgotthenameof]

Yes I’m joking.

[@bierkules2608]

People who call everything a GTA clone have never heard of the game Driver lul.

ah i see you are making gta 8 ? i cant wait !!

[@ethanwasme4307]

i'm famous

[@bahshas]

not right now the single gamedev cant make a gta clone but SOON in the future all games are going to be made by one or two persons and they are going to be the masters of the machines and make the machines do all the work to accomplish their vision, then we will plug ourselves into the videogames and it will be indistinguishable from real life. it is actually going to be realer than real life. 5-10 years for that to happen tops.

[@bahshas]

in the future video game development is going to be a lot more like farming and day-dreaming than programming

[@Yuriy_Tsezar]

I want more gameplay, I'm ready press 'like button' on every gameplay video. just do it! 🥹🥹🥹
