#worlddesign — Public Fediverse posts

Installing #Docker in #Linux today to self-host a wiki. I'm doing this so that I can make/transfer my #TTRPG and #WorldDesign stuff to a format that doesn't rely on outside hosting or nonfree tools (I've been using Obsidian for ages).

Is there an easier way to do this? Sure! I could just use TiddlyWiki or FeatherWiki. I could use different note taking software, or even (gasp!) a simple text editor. Or hell, I could use a Word Processor.

But none of those much easier options would teach me Docker. Also, I could have them set up in like two seconds, which means I'd have to actually start writing.

And you know what? Owlbears are total procrastinators.

As I've been struggling to find full scans of some books I wanted to put on the virtual bookshelf, and I needed to fill the space with something, I modelled a huge pile of LP records and an unnecessarily true-to-life 3D replica of a Sony Dynamicron L-250 Betamax cassette (that Sony tried and failed to force as an industry standard in the 80s' Japan to oppose VHS).

Planning on adding an Audio-Technica Sound Burger portable record player, and a Sony SL-2710 Betamax cassette player to the world later when I feel like it.

Started reworking my VRChat home world I carried over from Second Life because I got tired of 1024x1024 maps and because all the diffuse textures came with baked lighting and shadows, and I wanted to change it from day to night.

This bookshelf is complete and total nonsense and I realised I now absolutely must research, model, and stack on shelves roughly 300~500 books I read over my lifetime with accurate sizes, thickness, and bespoke covers. Hoo boy.

Necropraxis' post on supernatural magnitudes offers some insights on handling power levels. It mainly focuses on damage, but it feels like there's more implied stuff about how we categorize magical beings.

I think a lot about this blog post on how treating setting conceits as unique or localised grounds your setting:

【跳舞的生靈師】

調整了一下位置，確實變得更好了……

畫完了，但心裡的感覺很複雜，因為感覺能畫得更好，但卻不知道該怎麼弄。這樣實在是滿令人難過的…… 不過真的覺得畫得不錯了。

很棒的事情是，這張很適合當作 iPad 的桌布。

我想我可以再提升速度，粗線和細線一次完成，不要分批畫了。

這是另一個的角色第一次出場。

畫過這幾次以後，有幾件事要做：
1. 生靈師的更細部設定：不能再每個人都長得不一樣了。
2. 要開始畫新角色了。
3. 線條粗細不能再不受控了。

【生靈師與他的店】

有毛筆真是好玩，墨這東西是可以用燒的燒出來的。
旁邊那一袋看起來像是米的東西我其實不知道是什麼。

記錄一下畫畫的時候想到的東西：
⭐️ 這問題想第二遍了：要用貨幣嗎？
⭐️ 會鞣皮革嗎？聽起來就好難而且好毒。
⭐️ 聚集的人少，應該是不會鎖門窗的。
⭐️ 沒有玻璃，所以窗戶做柵欄，是用來阻擋出入，而不是防風雨的，因此，應該要有兩層窗戶。
⭐️ 不知道沒有施肥就種出來的水果是長什麼樣子，一定很難吃。
⭐️ 這木工的技術好像有點太先進了，熱帶的樹種到底適不適合建築？
⭐️ 可以造紙嗎？造紙容易與否、成本高低，影響到使用頻率。

我畫完了，今天也算是很滿足了。
這張畫完以後就直接拿去當iPad 的桌布了。實在是很合。
等等回去休息個一小時，然後早點開始讀書吧。

意識到這筆刷寵壞我了。在下面另外放一篇用來檢討。
之後再來補描述吧…… 東西太多了。

Ok folks, here the first vehicle sheet with fluff…#tabletopgames #Gamedevelopment #Worlddesign

Something that lives rent free in my mind every time I work on some world design, which deserves to be more widely known:

« About 16% of all wild bird species have been known to hybridize with one another; this number increases to 22% when captive hybrids are taken into account. »

[...]

« The reality of bird hybrids calls into question modern definitions of the word "species". »

What is even a species?
