the advent of fire was what took us to grow bigger brains

fire to cook meat o.o
zinc matrix
i mean, fire -> cooking
edgy ice
yea but we did it because raw meat is pretty energy poor
zinc matrix
actually no?
it just raises your chances of not getting some harmful bacteria or proto
edgy ice
heres a pubmed scientific journal about it
its fascinating stuff
our modern human bodies are pretty insane when you trace back the origins for why we do things
like theres strong evidence to suggest we can process alcohol because the earliest proto-humans found that fermented fruits were more energy efficient
and we evolved to seek it out
meat honestly was the biggest evolutionary step toward our enlarged brains and the way we function(specifically our stamina, by running down prey, efficiently using energy to keep up the pace)
veganism/vegetarian lifestyles were a thing in many parts of the world, especially where fruits, nuts, veggies and other things were highly abundant and meat was a bit rarer
zinc matrix
that is broad study, the author mention even modernity on it
edgy ice
well yea it is a broad study, im not saying youre wrong
zinc matrix
and there is another point to questio, which is, when a bigger brain leads to dominance?
zinc matrix
well yea it is a broad study, im not saying youre *wrong*

edgy ice
all of us are basically grasping at straws as to why the hell we are who we are
zinc matrix
what made us thrive as specie is not bigger brains
agriculture plays a very important role on how we are stabilished today
and at the start it was / is mostly plantae stuff
humans started to eat meat a lot not long ago
300 years ago eating meat like some ppl on 21st century would place them on the position of kings
plus justifying meat eating by our ancestry behaviour is really primitive
if you want i can link some recent studies on nutrition that analyze the structure of protein in the animal kingdom and the plantae one and how it behaves on our body

someone just starting out completely should learn first the basic mechanics, after you got the engine itself down pack, you should learn all the essentials via their documentation and other good tutorial series
and no, you dont need to learn C++ when first starting, blueprint opop
but learning it down the road is always an ideal thing.
zinc matrix
wow
edgy ice
its worth doing over a weekend
edgy ice
it goes over ALL the basics
edgy ice
rude ways of saying stuff aside, he isn't particularly incorrect. game development isnt quick at first but thats kinda the beauty of it
start simple, make tiny goals
zinc matrix
sometimes all you need is a banana-boost
edgy ice
- i want a character to exist in my world
- i want him to move
- i want him to swing a weapon
take it day by day and sooner then later you got a full game
zinc matrix
Youtube generally has a poor culture of teaching stuff
edgy ice
but to learn the engine its fine
zinc matrix
sometimes you can cut down a video in 5 minutes and it has 20
edgy ice
the guy is 100% brand new

Zach tutorials on Blueprints are all you want, newcomer
right, Zach?
they disappeared
maybe i throwed the banana to quick
compact gate
so the best thing to do is learn myself? Alrt thanks
HOPE ALL OF YOU ARE SUCCESSFUL WITH YOUR CREATIONS
zinc matrix
so the best thing to do is learn myself? Alrt thanks
you can get guidance on topic you do not know here, people are usually friendly
but starting with what Epic offers you as educative content is a good bet
really well polished tutorials
i think there is even Pins messages on general chat linking tutorials to watch
compact gate
what is raytracing?
compact gate
Alrt
zinc matrix
just feel it
compact gate
๐
zinc matrix
makes your games beautiful, btw
zinc matrix
Ill try
i am self taught without prior experience too! (i am still on the ballpark of being a beginner)
but if you think Blueprints too abstract to understand
i had an easier time learning the basics with Godot
then i went back to UE and it was easier
zinc matrix
is there a way to create games with your friends on seperate stuff?
sure, learn about source-control!
compact gate
I meant like collaborate on the same project
zinc matrix
sure, learn source-control
compact gate
alrt thx
zinc matrix
alrt thx
and please, do not get scary by the amount of things you will need to learn
bit small pieces and in some time you will get the grasp
compact gate
ALL I CAN DO IS TRY
zinc matrix
ALL I CAN DO IS TRY
YES!
LETSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOO
i am off the race to eat rice and mustard
maybe some lentils or tofu
Zach, calm down, i will be off for a while ok?
compact gate
is it best to start with a "blank world"
edgy ice
@compact gate that depends on what you want to do, for learning the basics i would do a blank world with starter content
compact gate
alrt
edgy ice
alternatively if youre more of the "poke and prod and break things" kinda learner(like me)
compact gate
blueprint or C++?
edgy ice
blueprint
compact gate
hmmm
edgy ice
for now, just do blueprint
compact gate
thx
edgy ice
C++ is better and everyone will tell you that(and its true)
but you would need to learn C++
for now, keep it simple and small.
compact gate
What about mobile vs pc?
stiff crystal
mobiles still suck
compact gate
alrt
on the verge of giving up
Ill make an attempt tomorrow! Just not in the mind space rn
Sorry

i think this guy is better suited to Unity or Godot...

@ epic games, make a launcher that works please
it shouldn't take 5 minutes to launch fall guys. my friends just wanna game
cursive crypt
Is this because of the Launcher tho?
rare sparrow
When the launcher takes half the time to load, yes
next flint

Need to boot Windows too.
Windows boots in like 10 seconds. Launcher boots in like 2 minutes.
Then for whatever reason Fall Guys also takes like 2-3 minutes to load

real question here is.. why it took me 4h to join this group after joining discord
makes no sense
maybe it just doesn't want to embarrass the user
if you really want, you can get the message count using discord search
topaz depot
quite a few messages
zinc matrix
when copyright and fees will enter on the database that AI art is using?
would be so neat having to share % to some artist responsible for a style if you are using AI to generate stuff on the same ballpark
stiff crystal
copyright laws are not up to speed when it comes to any new things
right now anything generated by learning others past work is in gray area.. today you get away with it but there's no guarantee it'll be like that in the future
zinc matrix
dead people are fine
stiff crystal
it's kinda weird concept really.. like if we accept this, how big dataset we need to launder the original work away?
zinc matrix
i would get sad if AI replaces some artists just because it is using everything without any barrier
stiff crystal
you have to stop posting then or you'll ruin it
stiff crystal
yeah it could be way worse

over half of my messages are in this channel

4 days, 1,500
stiff crystal
I guess mainly because I've been at Unity land so much I haven't really bothered going for on-topic channels so much
zinc matrix
did i?
i do not remember this one
i think all i got was on my first account, a strike
stiff crystal
if you did, you wouldn't admit you got banned
zinc matrix
i have a 3 second memory
stiff crystal
because this would automatically ban you again here
zinc matrix
if you did, you wouldn't admit you got banned
i think so actually
i mean, it is a cool place here
but discord has millions of users
i can lurk somewhere else
stiff crystal
no but avoiding bans isn't allowed
stiff crystal
I dunno if it's in the rules but that goes without saying
zinc matrix
i do not filter myself too much
everyone that is up to a chat i am on
if you are not being xenophobic, racist etc. for me it is fine
stiff crystal
one thing that kinda accumulates around here is amount of people you block
I'm pretty sure majority of these are from this group
zinc matrix
the total count
zinc matrix
ah ok
the users you blocked
wow 171
i think the only person i blocked was a teenager on a chatting server
they were annoying as heeeeck
and i got banned from a server rated to 45+ years old ppl
they discovered my age eventually
actually i faced agaisnt the mods
stiff crystal
most people I've blocked have been either acting entitled asking others solve their 101 issues or just acting toxic
zinc matrix
i had 3 days of nice chat with everyone and i tried to prove that the age limit was pointless
or it was 35+
stiff crystal
I don't mind helping new people to get going but I do have issues with people expecting everything offered to them without them putting in any effort.. when you help people like that they just come asking you everything after that and it never ends well
zinc matrix
that happens frequently on Blender server
stiff crystal
happens on all places with tools involved tbh
ancient ingot
๐
zinc matrix
seriously, some you wonder if they have some mental disability
ancient ingot
๐คฃ ๐คฃ
stiff crystal
it probably more of boils down to general availability and popularity of the tools.. these are marketed to all people on how easy these are to use.. you can even use UE without knowing how to code etc (epic has told this to people) so you kinda start to understand why people then act it should be so here too
zinc matrix
yeah, but i think UE has a trap
if your game is not dead simple, you need C++
and there is a bit of a barrier to get in with C++
ancient ingot
c++ โฅ๏ธ
zinc matrix
sure it is coding
stiff crystal
but essentially BP is a programming language like the text based ones
zinc matrix
but the amount of api exposed to it does not get closer to c++
i think the term is api
actually BP are genious
they will stay the same, no matter how much upgrade Epic will do
sure some nodes gets deprecated
stiff crystal
I'd like BPs more if it didn't break in all directions when you couple underlying c++ class changes to it
zinc matrix
but it is on another ballpark compared to Godot scripting language, which on the new version of the engine they are releasing there is syntax changes
for example
not the changes are huge but still
and i wonder why they are taking that direction with a proprietary code langugage
Epic tried, Unity tried
both gave up after a while
median wraith
did Godot finally added dynamic fonts resize?
stiff crystal
Epic is still doing Verse, right?
zinc matrix
did Godot finally added dynamic fonts resize?
i am out of Godot loop
hurts me think about them
for the most ethical you can get on computers is to use foss software
but the amount of resource to get closer to my vision is so small
unity has tutorials of anything you search
median wraith
The projects I know that started on Godot, has been moved to ue
stiff crystal
did Godot finally added dynamic fonts resize?
I'm more worried about basic functionality right now... I opened recent Godot 4 alpha and even their transform gizmo was like this
zinc matrix
even if it is on a niche part
stiff crystal
I just closed and didn't look back
median wraith
That editor isn't made for artist tbh
stiff crystal
- the whole gizmo is supposed to rotate
- it gives you value for the axis you picked but actually rotates all 3 axis on the transform values
if this is like this by design, I don't want to find out the other operations logic in Godot
zinc matrix
hehe
at least is on alpha
i envy their Navmesh generation
you can do from meshes directly
stiff crystal
I wouldn't be surprised if it had some backwards logic here though because all OSS tools do UX like that
I'd love to be able to use Blender
it just fights my brain every step of the way
stiff crystal
2.5 did bit better there... and 2.8.. and 3.x now
stiff crystal
that's like the biggest mistake I made when I tried 3.0
because.. you know.. blender
if you go for industry standard layout, you are stuck with their generic rebinding dialog, instead of the fancy one you get with blender's own layout
so if you want to remap the spacebar back to search, you have to do that for dozens of items separately
instead of having that nice one time toggle on blender layout
zinc matrix
hm
so far, it fits perfectly mine stuff
but i am aware i am not the most efficient modeller out there
i have at least the advantage of modelling very low poly things
stiff crystal
of course you can just remap these one by one
it just shows how stupid the UX here is.. they could have at least some default key and you could just override that per editor if you wanted
zinc matrix
oh yeah, i found ridicule they getting apart from the industry standart
stiff crystal
this is my all time favorite (has been like this always when I've used blender):
zinc matrix
just kills potential userbase
the Windows version does not allow you to change the emulation 3rd mouse button
on linux you got a box behind it to choose the key
maybe on Windows is lying somewhere on another tab
stiff crystal
you mean you want to use another key for it?
zinc matrix
yes
stiff crystal
alt + left mouse is the industry standard, no?
zinc matrix
i know, but in case you wanted something else
how do you pan by having Alt + right click as rotate?
stiff crystal
basically what I've found the best myself is to just check that box and then just adapt to rest on blenders key layout
zinc matrix
well my stuff is dead simple
this is the most complex models i make
does not get more complicated than plants
stiff crystal
also found this last time I tried blender
this makes sense for meshes
but not as much for cameras and such
but I guess it boils down on blender having line art for these
zinc matrix
from time to time you always find strange stuff on foss software
stiff crystal
it's one of these things you just have to adapt to
zinc matrix
Gimp has no option to search for a file on folders
you have to type the exact name of the file if you want
๐

does gimp have normal selection box nowadays?
stiff crystal
when selecting part of the image

in past they had that resizable thing out of the box

krita had really weird eraser

but i do not think it can compete directly to revenue of proprietary
i think they will never will until the community start valuing the GPL freedom hehe

I'm actually quite old school on image editors and I just keep using paint shop pro
been using it from Jasc days but it's gone to trash once Corel bought it
zinc matrix
i do not know how Gimp stopped at my hands
but fun fact, i was able to finish the first year of Marketing college using it instead of photoshop
just because i was a rebel and not taking the college seriously
my parents obligated me to do it
but we learned basic stuff
i think the most complex, which i rejected to do for moral reasons was to increase some boobs size
and correct symetry on faces
the teacher was nice to me, he liked me alot
as he was the photography class one too
and i always had burn for photography
i love getting out there controlling aperture and whatever
it is been a while i do not do it by the way
@ionic flame actually now you chatted i have a duality if i was banned or not
i remember that i had a smile profile picture

it's also super slow to launch now
