Quoting: Pengling

Quoting: elmapuland least but not least: japan loves nintendo, unlike here were a lot of people are starting to hate nintendo or already do, in japan the love for nintendo may be ubiquitous or almost that.

Unusually, as far as I'm aware, even users in Japan have complained about the build-quality problems of the Switch and its infamous controllers that break just from looking at them funny. :tongue:

maybe nintendo used quantum controllers, they break by just looking at then

i hate to say that but valve probably dont want trouble with nintendo.

think about it for am moment:
Sony lost an similiar case meaning emulation is legal, so legally speaking they are probably in their rights to allow such software to be published in their platform, its not an ilegal tool.
but even then , we dont know what sort of arguments their lawyers can find, what kind of interpretation they can do and we cant guarantee that valve will win world wide, maybe nintendo can win even being wrong and valve can be force to pay... bilions?
even if valve win, they wont be making money from selling this software and its not like people cant find how to install on steamOS by thenselves, its not a big loss.
and least but not least: japan loves nintendo, unlike here were a lot of people are starting to hate nintendo or already do, in japan the love for nintendo may be ubiquitous or almost that.

if the news spread in japan that valve and nintendo are not just rivals but "mortal enemies" that valve was involved in an piracy schandanl of nintendo products...
their reputation there might be tarned especially with people who dont know then yet.
"Poisoning the well " as they say.

its a lose lose situation, either valve lose and have to remove the emulator/pay nintendo.
or they lose their reputation in an important region.
now that we are speaking about that... maybe they can improve it elsewhere by fighting an fight that many people arround the world want someone to fight, but no one is doing...
but im not sure if that would increase the sales.

You are free to use Godot Engine, for any purpose
You can study how Godot Engine works and change it
You can distribute unmodified and changed versions of Godot Engine, even commercially and under a different license (including proprietary)

The only restriction to that third freedom is that you need to distribute the copyright notice and license statement of Godot Engine whenever you redistribute it. So your derivative product may have a different license, but should still state in its documentation that it derives from the MIT licensed Godot Engine (see below).

Quoting: GuestSo IANAL but I think they broke the license according to what you said (i'm not familiar with the original story at all)
IANAL but can follow plain text.

o.O wow now i'm a bit surprised i guess read it licence a LOOONG time ago, so i couldnt remember that part

Quoting: GuestHmm so again they violated the license, sad but *the norm* for corporations - and it's going to continue as FOSS has no legal chance to enforce itself because reasons .

nope, that dont violate godot licence at all!
its MIT not GPL!
its just a shame they didnt give credit to it, it would be a massive boost for its popularity

As a reminder, the Steam Deck work will be for external screen handling, since the Steam Deck itself does not have a HDR screen. Although, perhaps with a Steam Deck 2…

unless some other company try to sell an HDR screen mod for the deck.
ya know, some are already trying to sell screens with better color/resolution, so who knows?

the only negative thing here is a reminder that features like this appeared first on windows, this is not an incentive to migrate to linux its one less incentive to stay on windows instead.

not that im asking for "exclusive features" or anything like that but open source should/need to stay in the forefront of inovation otherwise no one will value it, it will always have this labeling of "alternative" and even worse, that word with an bad conotation.

Quoting: GuestDo you know any games using Godot? Would be interested to have a look at them. Official site doesn't seem to mention any games using it, but maybe I missed it.

edit: Actually - found a list of last year games mentioned here: https://youtu.be/watch?v=UAS_pUTFA7o [External Link]

Brotato being one of of them - hugely successful game. Seems Godot is already pretty significant player.

TailQuest Defense
Ex-Zodiac
Pingo Adventure
ProtoCorgi
Primal Light
Gourdlets
Project Heartbeat
Circle of kerzoven
Fist of the forgotten
Brotato
Dome Keeper
Blastronaut
Beat Invaders
Lumencraft
Cassette Beasts
and of course:
The Interactive Adventures of DogMendonça and PizzaBoy

you're welcome.

there is also Sonic Colors Ultimate wich combined their own code written in C with an custom built of godot that they used internally and called it something else in the relase, but people dumping the files and trying to reverse then to mod and stuff quickly realized it was made on godot.
