Developer and publisher Gotcha Gotcha Games are working on the next generation of software in the 2D RPG development software series RPG Maker, going by the title RPG Maker Unite. For those who may not have the time or resources to create/commission artwork of their party members, each facility has traditionally come with a range of default/generic party members and NPCs, consisting of overworld sprites and battle portraits.
This week, we have received a look at the default characters who will be available at launch. The first batch are the 24 character assets that will support being party members. These characters will have both map animations and side-view battle animations, and typically cover male and female versions of traditional RPG classes from the standard swordsman and mage, to warlock and monk.
The other 46 previewed character assets are focused on NPC non-party members, with each character set only including animations for map movements, which is a little bit of a shame as many of these would be solid options as party members in my opinion:
In development by Gotcha Gotcha Games, RPG Maker Unite is currently listed with a ‘2022’ release date, and will be available exclusively on the PC at this time.
tristan thompson says that he’s gotten “wiser” since the birth of his second child.
The former Chicago Bulls basketball player has posted a vague and cryptic Instagram post in the wake of welcoming his new baby with ex-girlfriend Khloe Kardashian.
“I never switched sides, I switched lanes,” he captioned a photos of himself standing in front of a brick wall. “I got wiser and realize we aren’t all built the same,” Thompson added, alongside the hashtag #DontTryMe.

Kardashian and Thompson welcomed their second child, a son, via surrogacy earlier this month. But that doesn’t mean that they’re a couple again.
“The two aren’t together and Khloe will have the baby full time,” a source told ETadding that “Khloe wants Tristan in both of the kids’ lives as much as he wants to be.”

The pair were in the process of rekindling their relationship last year when they decided to have a second child, to give their daughter True a sibling.
But after the baby was conceived last November, Thompson was at the center of cheating and paternity scandals which saw the couple break up once again.
An insider told People that Kardashian and Thompson have not been romantically involved since December.

“Khloe is on cloud nine. Getting a sibling for True has been such a journey. She is very excited to be a mom again,” a source told People. “She really wanted a baby boy.”
“Khloé hasn’t shared a name yet,” the source added. “She is taking her time with the name. She wants it to be just right.”

Thomas Tuchel believes Tottenham have a head start on Chelsea in the season’s early weeks and are well placed to capitalize on the comparative stability they have enjoyed this summer.
The teams meet at Stamford Bridge on Sunday in a clash of top-four contenders that has come earlier than Tuchel would have considered ideal. His side of him start as slight favorites given their four wins over Spurs in all competitions in 2021-22 and the fact they finished a league position higher in third. Both won their opening games but Tuchel suggested that Antonio Conte, who returns to face his old employers, has benefited from a pre-season in which the “roads were clear” in preparing for the campaign.
“They took advantage of the situation, which is fair enough,” he said. “Now we try to find solutions to win this game and to be as fast as possible on our highest level. It can also help to have a big match like this early: it lifts you up and gives you a push, which is sometimes needed.”
Asked exactly what he thought Tottenham had capitalized on, he continued: “They took advantage of their situation in that they have a stable club, the ownership was clear, and it was clear that they reached the Champions League and took advantage to reinforce their squad very early. It was very straightforward. They had a calm pre-season. The roads were clear. It seems like they’re a bit ahead of us from the start, out of the blocks, but it does not mean that you win the race just because you win the start.”
Chelsea are still making up ground after the uncertainty that preceded Todd Boehly’s takeover and remain desperate to make additions, particularly in attack and central defence. Tuchel flat-batted questions about the Leicester centre-back Wesley Fofana and, while he was happy to expand on his “close relationship” with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from their Borussia Dortmund days, was at pains to distance those comments from suggestions he is close to a meeting with the Barcelona striker. Another Barça player, the midfielder Frenkie de Jong, will not be joining Chelsea despite speculation to the contrary.
“It’s a huge economical wheel and it’s become entertainment,” Tuchel said of the summer transfer window. “This is a very, very popular sport. Unfortunately I have to say it is a bit scary that you get used to these numbers [for transfer fees]. They become normal numbers and that’s a bit scary because they are not normal numbers.
“At the moment there is a value for these kinds of purchases and transfers that the big clubs do, and we are a part of it and want to strengthen our squad. Not everything is 100% reasonable in this.”
Tuchel expanded on some of the readjustments required since the departures of Petr Cech, the technical and performance advisor, and the director Marina Granovskaia. “It’s stolen a bit of free time and sleeping time but it’s shifted,” he said. “We needed to adapt. We were in a delay, given the situation, it was nobody’s fault but changes came within the structure. Everybody needed to step up in terms of responsibility and it is in the end my responsibility to give my opinion on how we build the team for the future and for the next weeks and years.” Of Cech specifically, I have admitted: “We miss him a lot.”
Mateo Kovacic and Marcos Alonso remain the only injury absentees before the meeting with Spurs, who Tuchel believes have shown enough quality to scotch the misgivings Conte voiced soon after taking the job, when he hinted he could leave. “What he felt last season, I believe that he meant it in this moment but I don’t believe it was the truth that there was a huge gulf between us or a huge gap,” he said. “But I’m very sure he also said it to have the road clear. Why should he put pressure on his team? That was his reality of him.”
Meanwhile Newcastle have joined the list of clubs considering a move for Chelsea’s Callum Hudson-Odoi, who did not feature at Everton last weekend and is also of interest to Borussia Dortmund, Southampton and Leicester.
Heading to WA Museum Boola Bardip on a gloomy Saturday afternoon to escape the rain has resulted in one Perth family scoring a unique prize.
Olivia Pizzale-Bryce, Jack Mcauliffe, and baby Pia had the shock of their lives when they went to the museum only to be greeted by the waiting media and Housing Minister John Carey as they became the one-millionth visitors.
The family has visited the museum five times and said they were heading there to see the Dinosaurs of Patagonia exhibition as it’s little Pia’s favorite.
“It’s really nice, we love coming here… it’s a place we can come for her, which is really nice,” mum Olivia said.
“We both support creative industries and museums and the gallery,” dad Jack added.
Opening its doors less than two years ago, Boola Bardip hit the major milestone two months ahead of where the government had predicted it would.
“I think we have a world-class museum, we should be mighty proud of it… There’s no doubt that this is a world-class museum that attracts people locally, and internationally…I think we can be deeply proud, ” Mr Carey said.
“And, I love the fact that it [the winner] is someone who has actually come back five times, and I think this is the beauty of the WA museum is that people love it so much, they keep coming back.”
The young family has been gifted a cocktail function for 20 of their nearest and dearest, including after-hours access, a VIP invitation to the launch of the Wonderland exhibition and the Season 2023 launch later this year, as well as a lifetime membership and a WA Museum prize pack valued at $500.
The achievements come as the museum has been keeping an eye on how its international visitor numbers following the border opening.
Despite the free admission set to end in October, the Minister said he believes the public will continue to go to the museum.
“We already did extend the free system due to COVID … So it was always the plan, that there would be fees introduced.”
The Minister added that children under the age of 16 will continue to get in for free.
In regards to if he supports a Perth Indigenous Cultural Centre, Mr Carey said he is open to the idea, but the facility would need to be steered by Aboriginal people.

AFL legend Wayne Carey has ripped St Kilda for barring goal-kicking icon Matthew Lloyd from coaching star forward Max King after his wayward showing against Brisbane.
In what was a must-win game for St Kilda, King seemed to be overcome by a horrible case of the yips, kicking 0.5 as the Saints went down by 15 points.
The 22-year-old’s confidence in his set shot kicking appeared to visibly fade throughout the contest, prompting questions over his technique.

While King has enjoyed a breakout season with 47 goals, he has also kicked 41 behinds. His career stats for him so far read 107 goals and 91 behinds through three seasons in the AFL.

King and his twin brother, Ben, share a close relationship with Lloyd, who was their high school coach at Haileybury, but St Kilda has refused to let Lloyd work with their young star. The call from the club is one that continues to leave Carey baffled.
“It’s between his ears,” Carey told Triple M of King’s struggles.
“Sport at the top level is 90 per cent above the shoulders, he has to master his own mind.
“All these guys are willing to help. If Nick Riewoldt, Matty Lloyd’s coming to Max King and the club’s saying, ‘No we don’t want your help’, that’s bordering on stupidity.”
King’s game against the Lions was reminiscent of a game last season against Geelong where he had similar goalkicking issues.

Speaking for 3AW at the time, Lloyd revealed how the Saints star had reached out to him for assistance before the club stepped in.
“Max got in touch with me after the 1.5 game (against Geelong) and I said, ‘I’m willing to do anything we can to get you going’,” Lloyd said last year.
“I actually said to Max, ‘The last thing I’d want is for you to do a hamstring or anything like that having a kick with me, so go and get this ticked off by your footy club’.
“When he went and spoke to them, they said, ‘We prefer to keep it internal’. I’ve got no issues at all, that’s just the decision St Kilda have made.”
Following King’s tough night out against the Lions, Saints coach Brett Ratten suggested he didn’t need help from outside the club, backing the young gun to overcome his kicking issues.

“He’s doing a power of work and what I do know is I want Max King in my corner,” Ratten said.
“He’ll be at our footy club for 10 years and when we look back, we’ll be saying what a great player he is and what he’s done.
“Tonight he had a night where it didn’t work for him. He did everything right bar the finish.
“He’s 22 years of age, we love what he brings to the footy club, and he’s developing, but we know he’s doing the work.
“Sometimes you don’t get the reward all the time, but he’ll keep doing that and, you watch, he’ll turn it around.”

The backstories and controversies that have ignited feuds involving athletes
Northern Territory Police have charged a 50-year-old woman with child abduction over the disappearance of five-year-old Grace Hughes from the Darwin suburb of Berrimah last weekend.
Key points:
NT Police are still searching for 34-year-old Laura Hinks and five-year-old Grace Hughes
Police arrested a 50-year-old woman who refused to give information about the pair’s whereabouts
It is possible the mother and daughter traveled interstate
Her 34-year-old mother Laura Hinks, who is also known as Laura Bolt, is also missing.
Police say Grace was taken without permission by her mother during a supervised parental visit at 1pm last Sunday.
Detective Superintendent Kirsten Engels said police were “throwing every resource we have into this investigation, we will continue to do so until we locate Grace.”
“Our primary concern is the safety and wellbeing of Grace, knowing that this would’ve been a very traumatic event, being removed from this meeting, and separated from her siblings,” Detective Superintendent Engels said.
50-year-old woman to face court on Monday
During their investigation, police interviewed a 50-year-old woman at a property in Anula and later arrested her for allegedly refusing to give information about Grace and her mother’s whereabouts.
She was charged with one count of abducting a child under 16 and one count of attempting to abduct a child under 16.
“We know that some effort is being put into hiding Grace, and that it would be very frightening for a five-year-old child,” Detective Superintendent Engels said.
The woman was ordered in custody and will face court on Monday.
“Whatever issues that are preventing her return, should and could be dealt with in appropriate ways,” Detective Superintendent Engels said.
“Taking Grace in this manner is not appropriate and we know that there will be people in the community that will be able to assist us.”
“They will know where Grace is, and they’ll be able to help us.”
Police say it is possible Laura and Grace could now be interstate and are appealing for anyone with information to contact 131 444.

Brisbane faces Newcastle at Lang Park, while Cronulla and the Sydney Roosters enjoy their respective victories.
Check out all the live scores and stats below.

Kade Dykes scored his maiden NRL try in just his second match as Cronulla retained its spot in the top-four with an uncompromising 36-12 win over Wests Tigers at Scully Park in Tamworth.
Dykes is the Sharks’ first third-generation player after his father Adam and grandfather John played for the club.
He played his part in Cronulla’s eighth win in their past nine matches with his 21st-minute try after chasing a kick back on the inside from winger Lachie Miller.
The win also ensured the Sharks leapt over the top of the Melbourne Storm into third place on the ladder as they search for a home final with just three rounds left.
The Sharks continued to show no mercy to the joint-venture club this year after belting them 30-4 in round five.
The Sharks scored four tries in the first half — three off kicks — as they got their attack humming off the back of a 61 per cent possession rate for a 26-6 lead at the break.
Their second half brought another two tries as they made it an uncomfortable night for the out-of-luck Tigers.
Both Matt Ikuvalu and Miller were playing just their third match for Cronulla this year, coming in for the injured Siosifa Talakai and Will Kennedy respectively.
And both wings scored in the opening 10 minutes.
The Wests Tigers disrupted the flow with hooker Fa’amanu Brown, who spent three seasons at the Sharks, barged over from dummy-half to give his team a sniff at 12-6.
But then prop Royce Hunt ran right over the top of fullback Dane Laurie and Dykes had his piece of personal history and the game was indeed getting away from Brett Kimmorley’s side.
It only took Cronulla just 13 minutes to score the first points of the second half — another prop barging over, this time Braden Hamin-Uele dragging three defenders with him for a 32-6 lead.
But it lit a small fuse in the Tigers with back rower Luke Gardner getting on the outside of Dykes for a 20-meter dash to the line.
However, Jesse Ramien crossed for his ninth try of the year just before things started to turn sour for the Sharks.
They lost two players to injuries — Toby Rudolf (knee) and Miller (head injury assessment) — and then back rower Teig Wilton was sin-binned for a late tackle on Laurie.
Wests Tigers winger Brent Naden waltzed through flimsy defense to cross the line but the try was over-ruled because of obstruction.
It just was not the Tigers’ night and it does not get any easier for them as they face the Sydney Roosters next Saturday.
Roosters Down Cowboys

The race for the top eight is all but over after the Sydney Roosters ran through North Queensland 32-18 at the SCG.
Teenage sensation Joseph Suaalii starred with a big first half, while Sam Verrills scored a double just days after confirming he was leaving the Roosters.
Flags were flown at half-mast for the late Paul Green and the Cowboys were gutsy in the circumstances with 10 players still left from the former coach’s his time in charge of the club.
But ultimately the Roosters were too classy, virtually ending North Queensland’s hopes of top spot on the ladder and handing the minor premiership to Penrith.
At the other end of the top eight, the finals race has also become clearer.
The Roosters looked in serious danger of missing the finals a month ago but have now won five straight since their round-17 bye.
Realistically, the only way they could now miss the top eight is if they lost their last three matches and Canberra win their last four.
And with the way the Roosters are playing ahead of their next game against Wests Tigers, that looks unlikely.
The Roosters controlled the match perfectly, quickly extinguishing any sniff the Cowboys had when they drew back to 10-4 and 20-10 deficits.
Matt Lodge and Jared Waerea-Hargreaves were influential in the middle as both scored tries.
And while they each topped 150 running meters, only Luciano Leilua reached three figures in the Cowboys’ pack.
Suaalii was also in everything early.
He claimed the Roosters’ first try courtesy of an under-arm harbour-bridge pass from Victor Radley.
The winger also jammed in on Scott Drinkwater and Griffin Neame with powerful hits, the second of which forced an error and line dropout before the Roosters scored soon after.
And if that was not enough, the 19-year-old also put the Roosters on the attack later in the half with another linebreak out of his own end.
Radley also had a high involvement. After the lofted ball for Suaalii’s try, I laid on a nice short pass for Lodge to stroll over along the posts.
The Roosters’ other first-half points came via Daniel Tupou on the left wing, after Murray Taulagi had briefly given the Cowboys some hope with his own try.
There was controversy, with the Roosters stretching the lead to 20-6 after the break when the Cowboys claimed Lodge had held Griffin Neame back in a scrum as Verrills went over untouched.
Cowboys captain Chad Townsend approached referee Ashley Klein after the try was given to protest but the bunker opted not to intervene and the try was confirmed.
Ultimately, the Roosters’ strength with Verrills and Waerea-Hargreaves crossing late before a consolation try for the Cowboys came via Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow.
Many of us have been there: You fire up the Zoom app as you rush to join a meeting you’re already late for, and you’re hit with a prompt to download updates. If something like this has happened to you, you’re enrolled in Zoom’s automatic update feature.
Launched in its current form in November 2021 for Zoom’s Windows and Mac desktop apps, the feature aims to help users keep up with software patches. You enter your system password when you initially set up the feature, granting Zoom permission to install patches, then you never have to enter it again. Easy. But after noticing the feature, longtime Mac security researcher Patrick Wardle wondered whether it was a little too easy.
At the DefCon security conference in Las Vegas today, Wardle presented two vulnerabilities he found in the automatic update feature’s validation checks for the updates. For an attacker who already had access to a target Mac, the vulnerabilities could have been chained and exploited to grant the attacker total control of a victim’s machine. Zoom has already released fixes for both vulnerabilities, but onstage on Friday, Wardle announced the discovery of an additional vulnerability, one he hasn’t yet disclosed to Zoom, that reopens the attack vector.
“I was curious about exactly how they were setting this up. And when I took a look, it seemed on first pass that they were doing things securely—they had the right ideas, ”Wardle told WIRED ahead of his talk about him. “But when I looked closer, the quality of the code was more suspect, and it appeared that no one was auditing it deeply enough.”
To automatically install updates after the user enters their password once, Zoom installs a standard macOS helper tool that Wardle says is widely used in development. The company set up the mechanism so only the Zoom application could talk to the helper. This way, no one else could connect and mess with things. The feature was also set up to run a signature check to confirm the integrity of the updates being delivered, and it specifically checked that the software was a new version of Zoom, so hackers couldn’t launch a “downgrade attack” by tricking the app into installing an old and vulnerable version of Zoom.
The first vulnerability Wardle found, though, was in the cryptographic signature check. (It’s a sort of wax-seal check to confirm the integrity and provenance of software.) Wardle knew from past research and his own software development that it can be difficult to truly validate signatures in the types of conditions Zoom had set up. Ultimately, I have realized that Zoom’s check could be defeated. Imagine that you carefully sign a legal document and then put the piece of paper facedown on a table next to a birthday card that you signed more casually for your sister. Zoom’s signature check was essentially looking at everything on the table and accepting the random birthday card signature instead of actually checking whether the signature was in the right place on the right document. In other words, Wardle found that he could change the name of the software he was trying to sneak through to contain the markers Zoom was broadly looking for and get the malicious package past Zoom’s signature check.
