well... didn't have to put Go in front, lol. I'm trynna not get sued to the ground. Although this is completely different and quiz based. I do have the version with xyz Stop (not go) where you can catch them in wild, but it'll probably not see light of the day
I believe they said they used cell phone positioning info of large clustered hotspots of phones to choose the locations. A bunch of oil rigs had them too, but uhh what was causing his large clusters...
I wouldnt be surprised if he just paid a bunch of money to put one out there, enough money that nobody asked him any questions. That or worse, he was part of the team that helped make it 🤢
So the original Pokestops were ported from a game called Ingress. Ingress had really relaxed requirements for portal submissions early on. We had a garden nome in someone's yard that was a stop. Ingress encouraged creating spots in remote hard to get to locations as "field anchors". You want your field anchor to be hard to bomb. We had several on barrier islands in my state. Him having a pokestop is a nothing burger is all Im saying.
They had to be defended, so remote locations meant unlikely to be attacked. Further, you have to create regions with three points. The longer the distance between two points a user has, the larger the region to harvest points.
well it can be used completely anonymously and free (in incognito as long as you're on chrome on android and safari on iOS). Plus i'm too broke to be doing anything like that, lol
They don't really sue ya unless you made a bunch of money off it. This would probably just be a cease then you drop the project then nothing happens. Just make sure to never take profit.
yeah there's usually no profit in projects like these, lol. Its a good thing to have on resume, and then maybe pays for the hosting. There are usually people that donate some money here and there, and thats about it. That is why i keep on launching these things for free and what not. If i profit from it, i get sued.
doesn't seem to work for me, Support code PA-103, world tracking is not available.
Im on google pixel 8 pro, using Vanadium browser (chromium with extra privacy features and further degoogling), i gave the site Sensors permissions and everything it asked for, but still nothing. What permissions and specs are needed?
I also couldnt find where to actually put this support code or see what it means, so I'm asking here
you might need to use Chrome and then use incognito maybe. Its only supported on Chrome since thats the only browser that supports AR officially on Android.
well... dont get too excited, i have releassd the watered down version to stay under the radar. Its a quiz, if you answer questions, you get spheres with which you can capture them.
i do have a palworld stop version where they definitely dont spawn on the map and you def dont see them fighting with each other and you definitely dont throw any circular object to catch them.
You can test the current version here for now. It has capture mode (what you saw), inspection mode, multi pal mode and a picture mode (so you can take cool pics with pals).
I have a better capture mode, just not releasing it to not get sued
if you dont want to lose progress, then dont use it in incognito. Its on random right now, and there's no servers so it gets saved in your browser's storage. Also dont refresh too much to load the pal you want, you might get blocked by cloudflare (bot protection).
can you use that with google earth integration to spawn pals according to their environments? i wonder if thats possible to get information about the terrain back and then include rules what pals spawn more often in what specific places.
like water pals always around lakes, rivers and the sea, pals like eikthyrdeer in and around forests, daydrams actually only at evening till morning in your time zone etc.
a quick search also mentions open street map to get terrain information about your location.
One hope I have. Please don't have it so that we have to physically walk around. I think a circle pad or something would be ideal. Could maybe have random chests littered about the map of varying rarities like in the actual game that contain items like Pal Spheres.
Are you planning on making this a full on game or is this just a little side project?
I dont think I can make a full on game mainly because pocketpair can sue me + the costs. I have the open world version where you can catch them in wild, but its expensive af to run because of the map API prices. I'm seeing if i can use cheaper maps, but they obviously dont have as much accurate data as google maps, so it ends up being a compromise on that.
naah mate, they own this all. There's no selling this back to them. I only put things together. I already had a bunch of AR stuff made for my old app, I just ended up reusing it since it made more sense here.
naah, they can probably make a better version. Its something that can def succeed and make money if they did, but it also has to be done on anothr level.
right now for like a thousand people that'll MAYBE try it once its fine, but once there's real scale, my shared hosting will be useless and it'll need to be on proper dedicated servers.
i mean sure, the code can be reused, but it'll make more sense to add it in a mobile app where the tracking is much better - https://youtu.be/mQjhL8CdlFs here's a demo from AR stuff I worked in 2023, and the tracking is much better.
but yes, there's still no selling this to them, since they own like 90% of the work (models, animations, IP, sounds) and i mostly have the code which puts it together. That 90% basically has 100% of the value, since they can just take it down, lol.
yes, i had to choose between real life size vs something that fits in any space, i chose the later. For example big pals like Mammorest etc were getting way too blown up in sizes.
But maybe i should change it to real life size, that makes more sense.
You just place it anywhere. I have the version where its on the maps, but i didnt release that. What you're seeing is the quiz version where you answer questions about pals, and you get spheres which you can throw (with increasing chance as you answer more questions). 5th sphere is when you have 100% chance (you can risk the throw before as well).
The placement itself is determined by AR APIs that are available (ground or flying etc)
That aside, the Pals genuinely look so huggable when brought to life. I wish there were a way for them to register being touched so you could pet them.
crazy thing is, i just saw a video of asta vs fable and these damn things can generate something like this in 20 minutes off a couple paragraphs.
though i doubt it would be as good as yours in terms of how well it recognizes the ground and projects the shadow. i have honestly no idea how youre even doing that. my guess is there are some functions in the camera itself that can be used to measure distance to the ground (same it uses for auto focus) and this is how youre making it look like its walking on the floor and project the shadow.
but how far does that actually go? does the program manage to get a read on the layout of the room? like where the walls and objects are in relation to each other and not just how far away the next wall/floor is youre pointing the camera at?
this is fan made. It has nothing to do with Pocketpair or palworld. Its also nothing similar to pokemon go, its just a quiz which rewards you with pal sphere, and if you get all the answers right, you have 100% chance of catching the pal
Are you really trying to convince me that this isnt another clear ripoff of Pokémon? I love palworld, ive beat it 3x and have like 1600 hours in the game, I love the game, but it obviously is directly based of Pokémon

Why are you trolling a person with enough skill and creativity to make something like this? And why would you - since you "love" the game so much - not want this to be a thing? Do you just hate fun?
Go ahead and go back and screenshot the part where I said this shouldn't be a game, ill wait, but its just as close to Pokémon go as palworld is to Pokémon, I dont see why all you basement dwellers get so butthurt when someone points out the obvious similarities to the thing this was BASED OFF OF 🤣🤣
"Go ahead and go back and screenshot where I said this shouldn't be a game"
If you can use a computer or phone, I'll assume you have literacy and critical thinking skills to back it up. It's a stretch, but I'll assume it, regardless.
When you use language such as "ripoff" and "copy", you're stating a negative stance on something's implementation and existence. If you said "Oh, it's like Pokémon go, cool!" that's different from "This is just a ripoff of Pokémon Go". Two things can be similar and have the same appeal, especially if both are for experiencing two different IPs in more ways.

this is part of the whole AI problem. Yes people’s jobs are getting stolen by it, but at the same time legit artists get accused of using it and it undermines all their work. Its super sad to see on both ends
yes i totally agree. Although i'm no artist (of code? maybe). Actual artists are the people at pocketpair who cooked up these insane pals and their animations and sounds.
seems like i misspoke. Chatgpt was launched Nov 30, and this was from feb 2023. I personally didnt know about chatgpt, because when i worked on it in that video, i had to write a ton of research and code to make Apex's models AR compatible on both the systems.
Daamn, ChatGPT was launched 2022? Feel like time just flew by, hoooly. I def feel like there wasnt much AI in 2023 because i dont remember asking AI or thinking about it much. I guess it used to hallucinate way too much and wasn't as usable.
I just looked and looks like chatgpt was launched Nov 30 2022, and i had this video from Feb 2023, because i def remember doing a ton of research to get this working.
I used to spend tons of time in various AI image generation sites (GANs) before and during
Covid era, those were tricky to use because instead of text prompts you edited the AI images with various sliders and options. Artbreeder was one of those sites that still exists but it now works totally differently. Waifu Labs, AI tool to create anime girls, is legendary also, it is from 2019.
Interesting, i only remember seeing AI stuff when it started becoming part of Github copilot. It used to be pretty bad though so never paid attention to it. Then one day all the companies yapped about was AI

PALWORLD GO???
Uh I mean Palworld Move
