wdym by that?
I think they mean so it types out instead of showing up all at once
https://youtu.be/So8DpNh3XOE something like this
Not exactly, way more advanced than that
maybe seeing it animated can help
The best scenario would be that it does that, the text can shake (randomly) and the text can be colored
I meant as a general concept, there are tons of ways of displaying the text other than in blocks
but good you have a specific example of what you want
Yeah, looks like animated 2D texture to me
that just looks like a fade
They just sent a message from a national channel, they wanted me to interview, but they demanded a royalty fee of 2.7kโบ. I guess scam
Yeah clue how I'm gonna do this though ๐
Which is what Live2D/Spine excels at
these ones are 3d ones - they are controllable in 3d world
UMG
animation timeline in the widget
There's some "examples" of vertices hiding and stuff in unity Godot has straight up support for it, but unreal....
This might be text widget for every single letter.
change transparency of text block
Very hacky and hard for modding I'd imagine
Yeah, this is much more believable to be 3D meshes (and also the aliasing)
yeh well that was such a short word in the example it's hard to tell
It's fine though I've kinda just coped with the fact I won't get it done in unreal lol
That's why I learned unity and godot
Well, you can generate them by parsing every letter into array then populate it with text widget for each letter in a wrapped horizontal box
On a similar note, there is a plugin to integrate Live2D into Unreal Engine.
https://github.com/Arisego/UnrealLive2D
Yes
https://youtu.be/V5L6VJYoGjQ 1:10 for better example, imagine some colored text too
It's definitely not Undertale ๐
Undertale did similar thing anyway lol
UwU
It's not me in unreal engine though ๐
Ik Godot has it pretty much built in but idk about game maker
Planning on learning that too
More power to you if you want to do it in other engine
I had to learn more after I got bullied for making Undertale in unreal
I learned clickteam unity and godot
Who bullied you?
Undertale is not MMORPG at least
No one here
It was more of the fact it was unreal engine ๐
We can fix that.
Then don't give a s||hit|| on them
They can't talk to me anymore
Good morning
did u tell her ?
I told her ๐ฎ
We told her.

If they reach you from the show turk business man channel, don't believe it, scammers
I'm not a business man anyway

they dont seem like scammers
every show asks for money for those things
its kind of advertising
awww explain
we ?
watched anya last ep yesterday
dumb girl fell asleep again 
did not watch it yet
The problem is, they make you sign the document saying it's free, but it's paid.
oh.. you told me you were watching last time i asked
They say that if you don't pay the fee after the shooting, they will go to court.
sounds like more scam now
it is like saying marriage give u freedom but u r signing a life contact
๐ง
nope i watched blue lock then get bored
makes sense
anya ep was quite good
that said, i'm out of animes to watch now
i was watching kimi cant communicate, but i dont want to binge it
maybe i'll watch bocchi
or act dumb, "was it restricted, ohhhh man "
or maybe if i feel masochist enough i might start one piece
a student teacher thing ?
its probably "assassination clasroom" you are mentioning
how u watch these musical shit and drama
i mean, isnt one is the anime, other one is name of the MC of the anime? ๐
its pretty good actually
Eeeh... nostalgia, being young again. Watching anima soap operas for hours.
I didn't actually watch bocchi rock
not my cup of tea
also
y'all really are slacking in here
They young, is normal.
i wanna fights, blood, and adraline
I am on latest of one piece
no regrets
just binge watched it for like two months
and it's been part of my life for years
bleach & re:zero
๐
1k episodes of friendships
how do you not forget the eps
when you reach 1k
and how come luffy is not at the age of 80
could not stand the old art in bleach
re:zero then
hmm the anime is decently straightforward
not like there is that complicated of a plot to remember
all i know half of the people worship zoro other half sanji
and i dont even know who they are
i am in season 2 now
sanji looks cool though

Zoro is the best
that ep was something
tbh kinda annoying character
more charismatic - but zoro look more sincere
the friended zone guy ๐ญ
i didnt watch no spoilers pls 
i didn't too but they call him that on fb
I'm thinking about deciding on either Fullmetal Alchemist or One Piece after xmas
and finish bocchi until then
I need to finish watching gintama
that anime is so good but I needed a break after like 200 episodes
In all honesty Im grumpy because I found out my secure password vault was stolen, so now I have to make all new passwords for everything... and I doubt I'll be using LastPass anymore
I totally think multipasses should be a thing, why we only paying yearly for season/battle passes ๐
Nah thats the font you use when youre pirating ๐
Nice gun
does it crash when you use it
thats the gun with which you miss even if the end of the gun touches the enemy
No :/
that damage stat is terrible
Must be Access Violation prolly
is that borderlands?
Yes, part 3. It is the annual xmas play of that game.
who added my peeing stat on a weapon ๐
mm... what?
I recently broke my wrist, prompting me to explore the world of alternative input devices. Today I want to showcase my attempts to code with an Apple Pencil, using the Scribble feature of iPadOS 14.
Im glad my pointer isnt null
the time needed to finish
eren loves skeletons
single emoji describes %70 of the conversations here
eren loves anything without a soul
my first 3 list is truly full of things has no soul
what are they?
๐
Anime, Alavara, coffee
we have in common is coffee
I dont drink caffeine much at all anymore, dont drink much processed sugar either
I have an explosion of energy with a glass
i eat/drink anything that is processed and unhealthy
also trans oil
is that like gender fluid?

then how do you become underweight?
its just mcdonalds fries
these days i discovered its lack of vitamines
When I see the french fries, I gain 10 kg.
So thats why people look fat in oil piantings
:question: you drink batteries?
:8ball: Without a doubt.
if you be like me and dont do fitness you suffer a lot because sometimes i cant even carry things people able to carry with single hand
me too
it is always better to be skinny
you shouldnt have constructed that amount of uobjects
Tell that to Amazon
You mean the ||nanoweave|| ?
Oh so you skip the grind with money do you?? Hmm???

As you may know industry isn't standing still. We artist have to catch up with its newest standards and stay up to date.
So I present you a reference pack that will help you in your journey to becoming a better artist.

WHAT THE F
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT
OMG THIS IS BEYOND THE BEYOND CURSED
Ok
that hat looks delicious
top 3 delicious foods:
1- @deep copper
2- Mikasa
3- Mexican hats
is there anyone familiar with nginx? lol
currently, i'm using nginx to route port 80 to the react app running on 8080 on root domain (site.com)
i want to create a subdomain (app.site.com) and route it to another react app running on port 3000
the dns record for app.site.com is set to the server's IP (both react apps are running on the same server)
how do i configure nginx to do this?
you're a god
thanks a lot!!
goddess*
๐ณ
now tell me the worst ones so i can be careful
i guess
some of the europe food have blood in it
they make some meats under cooked and it gets bloody
i ate it once, i think it is delicious
blood pancake for example
i think the total amount of countries is over 190, so about 100 didn't even make it to the list
maybe never tested
that's also valid yes ๐ค
best comment on this:
Three thumbs up!
I guess i wouldnt eat the bloody dessert
that one "deep fried pizza"
okay this is definitely the standard for ai
the sum of 3 + 0 + 4 + 1 + 6 is 14 ๐ค which is 5
they chose our best meal kaymak ๐
Surprised that's on there. I would have expected haggis.
its probably very unique
it sounds like something I don't want to know about ๐
except Greece borrowed it and called "kaimaki" again
I dont like kaymak
it goes well on top of the kunefe
it's true. I guess I don't like to eat plain
wow eating it plain would be wild
its like drinking oil directly instead of using on foods
I have a friend eats plain kaymak
I'm already scared of their capabitilies now
At the same time, he also eats "ekmek arasฤฑ poฤaรงa"

I don't know how to say in english sorry
you reminded me a colleague that was keep talking about food on discord instead of programming
cursed sentence
I am constantly hungry
"ekmek arasฤฑ poฤaรงa"
this is worse
and I'm done with this day company
๐๏ธ
well at least you program something, we hired that guy to be lead
leading food programmer
yes i do hc and i did my stuff till friday 
food leading programmer ๐ค
I'm also done today
wrote boilerplate stuff 7hrs straight
yet i have to write 7hrs more to finish things
I will eat soon and continue learning unreal
Is this a personal project or a team/company?
I just wondered
Personal
o, i see!
many pro artists seem to be leaving artstation to protest ai artists
Where will they go is what Im wondering, wont there be AI artists everywhere
seems like a very artist thing to do actually
maybe all the programmers should leave github to protest AI code
good idea ๐
Im just here laughing cuz Google are worried that generated content is going to become more prominent than search
monsOlympus would make a mountain where allartist and programmers come
probably nowhere, it just sounds like a movement to gain some fame and make people prefer them over ai, some guilt trip stuff i am guessing
Arnt they hurting themselves more by moving away from platforms where they can get more exposure for traditional arts?
i am not even sure how you can tell apart some ai works that have been worked upon by an artist after it
I understand the kickback, Im just not sure I understand the boycott movement
no idea man, it probably seemed beneficial to them, maybe
Surely they realise there is enough public domain art to train AI on without them right
a few artists leaving a platform would barely do anything tbh, I don't expect all to leave
Even if there wasnt enough public domain art these companies training AI could easily get funding to purchase art libraries
Another thing I dont understand is why, if youre a great concept artists, why you wouldnt use AI to speed up your workflow dramatically and become more competitive
TIL Epic creates a GCal even for the game receipt
As a gamer I actually find the idea of AI generated content exciting because Im sick of being charged through the nose for some skin maker to spend time on something a computer could do
that's what feels off to me, they don't seem to see it as a tool
here's one such post i found with a simple search After so many years on Artstation, and with a heavy heart, I made the decision to leave and un-publish my portfolio. Artstation clearly doesn't support human artists, and I clearly don't want my work to be mixed in with ugly AI images and support a site that doesn't support me (actually fighting against me!). Screw you Artstation. I will stick with sites like 3DTotal and CG Society. I won't be uploading any new art here for now.
The thing was with Pop Art it was easily reproducable on purpose but I always felt it was cheap but I wouldnt dare say its not art
it can be a tool, but they're against it's usage in cases where it can spit out very similar images to existing artists - the whole "create X image" in "style of X painter"
sprinkle in "trending on artstation" and the whole work of that artist is distilled
Perhaps thats the issue, if your art is so easily reproducible the issue aint with the AI its with the artist
another post, it seems like they are tired with nft based posts too
I tried using my favourite artists name in a prompt, it spit out nothing even remotely like his work
It could be because he's an older artist who worked for companies like Marvel so his art is well protected and largely offline
but isn't it a saying there to steal from many artists so it seems new ?
Ive seen these art sites come and go just as I have social media, chat apps etc
Machines are taking over the world.
CGChat used to be super massive
and cghub
i mean, it feels like it's somewhat an artstation based protest
Why programmers dont rant about chatgpt?
because chatgpt sucks ๐
art generator ais also suck
Why is OpenAI, neither Open, neither AI?
this is true, i believe many smaller artists would have big trouble because of this
I have seen some rant alittle bit about AI scraping github and updated terms which include stuff for the AI helper but I dunno. Maybe programmers are more open to autocomplete style help because its already there
and it wont rule out problem solving and bug fixing
oh god chatgpt and copilot is trained on Unreal Engine api 
after all you still need skilled people to get the stuff working that chatgpt spits out
they def do, same question popped up here for art
same for stackoverflow code snippets...
it seems because artstation is trying to supress them, also deviant art barely works well i heard, idk though
I was grateful it managed to explain the difference between time slicing and robin round scheduling to me
why would anyone stop their coding journey while they can ask quick info from a well trained bot 
because all they do is bitch around
Thats why it never comments its code ๐
lol
they should take their stuff offline, put on an NoAI image and call it a day
calling the artist police for harrassment!
then it's up to artstation to decide if they care about those people or not
github repos soon be like "#NoAI"
plot twist: "#gameplay-ai" ones is better
I went to Artstation and saw all the NoAI images and all it did was make me not want to look at anyones art, AI or not
I'm just waiting for github AI bait repos that attempt to exploit the system to feed the AI garbage information
have you ever seen a working code example that is even a bit complex from them?
meanwhile mj is giving out pretty decent catgirls
feed the AI windows hacks
ofc, the face is all the same
it can't even spit out simple things without logic errors
I saw a few, but currently its good at "understanding" complex code rather than creating it from what I can see
You get pretty decent booba from stable diffusion not that I would know
Why do you care? It is not like eye popping?
yea, i heard that, too...
true tbh
No need. They are already there.
Yeah honestly I can't be the only person to think about it, it must be happening already
have you tried making something "complex" with chatgpt?
If it wasn't a complete black box they could probably craft something more easily
Lies!
while AI Image generators work quite well in a lot of cases
I asked it about TObjectIterator and it actually gave me a sort of in the right direction answer
sort of in the right direction ๐
Not the #cpp correct answer mind you but sort of in the direction that would have given a more or less working solution, maybe just not the best
meanwhile content writers using ai so they only proofread
but it doesn't spit out software
did it say it iterates objects?
it may spit out snippets for a specific purpose
It broke the sites functionality
so coders rather see it as tool than as threat
The NoAI guys actually spammed so much they made it impossible to see human artists work too
wdym? Is just a tag, you can still use their bad Search algorithm.
also one neat thing about chatgpt is...
you can put in code, and ask "what does it do?"
and it tries to explain it
hahaha
I think if you use a NoAI profile pic you should have your computer taken away.
it's like religion holding the world back
uhm, they do
there's no bugs, most can make a new pfp of their unique OC. which was mostly the funding for mediocre artists
Posted from a phone with dedicated AI cores
at the prices people pay for pfp's it was never going to be a sustainable market for anyone
you'd have to churn that shit out in like 10 minutes
I made my own profile pic ๐
it was already bad enough, you can say
Art is expensive, dont we want it to get cheaper to make richer more expressive games?
i doubt it was sustainable in the first place
Yeah it was probably side income for some that needed it but I don't think it has gone anywhere
exactly
it may expand their portfolio, but thats it
AI art doesn't come out exactly as you want it unless you get lucky or aren't very picky about it
now i wonder how much people pay for a profile pic, tho
I wonder what would happen if a NoAI supporter was to get in a horrible accident that required a medical advancement that was derived from AI machine learning. Would they choose to die and say "I support the human doctor" ?
and those are probably the artists complaining and dragging everyone into it
didn't you forget something?
i forget a lot of things, which do you mean?
how dare you talk to me like that
i apologise, my lord!
Yeah that's pretty good.
the code nowhere said anything about distance and it was able to figure that out
you know what would be kind of funny? If someone created an AI that is purely designed to argue the AI art debate with NoAI people. See how long you can get them to talk crap for ๐
I couldnt even see how crappy the NoAIs peoples art was since most removed all their stuff lol
it literally interprets the given context well
lol some of the best artists in the industry left because of that
so those pieces were top-notch
weak
I wonder how many artists are taking advantage of the fact they left
open for contracts ๐
Mr Bean watches silently with his new bong
which is why i believe only a few would leave
Kinda bad code btw. You shouldn't need an AI to guess it for you.
lol
Just seems odd to me, AI is hurting us lets hurt ourselves further by placing ourselves further into obscurity
War must ensue.
yeah, they could've just used ai to quickly make concepts and build over that
I guess they got sick of being paid with exposure ๐
I think the actual problem with AI stuff is that companies are effectively bypassing copyright to train their models for profit
yes that's what the protest is about
We live in the age of beliefs. Where beliefs are stronger than facts. So it's not surprise when someone thinks they are being attacked by the AI scene, they tend to go a little haywire thinking they are being made obsolete. Which just isn't true but when you believe something, and you get other weakminded people to believe it, you just created a new religion. NoAI
One issue I see is not all these artists own the rights to their work, they actually have to get permission to put it up for public consumption
@deep copper lol inkblot has all photos of furries, typical
xD as expected
this happens all the time when taking "inspiration" and no one gives a f***
I don't think that's the same
i think that's exactly the same
Nobody systematically analyzes hundreds of thousands of artworks to get "inspired"
I see the issue being with misinformation mostly. There are solid reasons to dislike AI art but they are solvable. They say "AI steals art". Ok that's easy. Authenticate originality of your artwork. That used to be done with timestamps and forensic computer work, but now we have the blockchain which makes things a lot quicker. Art always had the law on it's side in cases of forgery. So it's not like someone can just steal art with AI then sell it without there being repercussions. But we can go one step further and authenticate all art sales through the same medium, blockchain, which can also verify authenticity and if art was used before it can be minted for sale. But I dunno. I'm just a lowly programmer whose job is being taken over by GitLab right? ;p
you dont but its one avenue
that sounds like someone out of the NFT bullshit universe would buy and resell digital art
yeah it's one avenue just like using a brick with your name carved onto it for your artwork
and yet for some reason nobody is suggesting giving away bricks with your name on it with your art
:P
because everyone is panicking
cant do shit if you can't control the situation
I hope this weeds out the crap artists tho. Like me ๐
i recall one of the furry friends getting an artwork made for like $10, it was something "they could've drawn themselves anyway" type of stuff
i guess animal anatomy is hard idk
ok you just took this debate to a whole new level. Now I am a believer. We need AI art to draw badger balls.
wth xD
this has been popping up on my youtube constantly the past few days. Is it following me?
just watch it, youtube thinks you will love it way too much
I don't need to watch it. I'm living it :d
weren't the art critics a bit confused as to why it wasn't using anything but a screenprint?
no, it was generated, then upscaled quite a bit
I know but he printed it on a canvas with a screenprint. That could have been anyone's artwork at that point. You would think they would require physical art, not reproductions
in fact, I might even call BS on that post as some lie to further the discussion
you know the internet, they love to bullcrap about stuff to further an agenda
Would be fairly easy to verify since he names the competition
I have art that was, predominantly, generated with AI hanging in a gallery right now. ๐คฃ
cant read that article im afraid its paywalled
Youโve reached your limit of free articles. WTH NY Times
well it was a digital art competition, it had to be printed to show
ahh that makes more sense
so if it was a digital art show I don't see much problem with winning it. It was made digitally. ๐
I would like to see an artist that is upset by this reproduce the result using AI
And see how long it takes
Because it will take a long time :P
it's like i make a game engine myself then complaint about others using ue
Art is conveyance and messaging; the methods, difficult/ease of sending said message is entirely irrelevant really. Art is art, if it invokes, it doesn't matter how it was produced.
exactly
it might take a long time now and the upscaling and fine tuning, but won't it reach a point where it's almost instant, and pretty soon?
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
I produce my art with a capital F. Others might think it stinks, but to me it's like eating sprouts and gravy. mmmm
I've done traditional art and AI art... whether its canvas and brush or an AI tool-- it's all the same. The onus is on the creator to forge the message.
if art becomes commodity then I guess that sucks for artists but it's basically the same at that point as fighting against alarm clocks as a person whose job is to wake people up
In 7 years, it won't even be an argument/debate any more. Pretty much everyone will be using AI tools, even most of the ones who hate AI. It'll just be another standard tool available.
funny thing is I used Gitlab in beta and although it's really good at writing boilerplate code, and probably does a better job than me at it, I found myself resenting the use of it personally because I don't want to forget how to do that boilerplate code, and if AI does it all for me, I'm gonna forget. I mean, I forget now sometimes :d
you can't go against it tbh, its convenience would win
a lot of those digital artists also use stuff like clone tool, healing brush, etc...
they kind of use digital helpers already
that's true
Many of Photoshop's core tools are AI powered under the hood now.
Most of human's life is AI controlled now. Ask your phone.
tbh i wish animators benefit from it
most yt animator vids focus around motivation and the dread you will only work on a few projects in your whole life
alexa doesnt want a biscuit :p
I don't use a smartphone... but, I would be disorganized as all hell without Google Home. ๐
alexa wants that i subscribe to amazons unlimited music, tho
it will. Control Rig is the first step to AI controlled systems. We have a standardized node based rigging system that with the right Ai tools could save us millions of man hours per year
also for 2d art
Pretty sure the music comes with Amazon Prime. ๐
2d rigging is even easier I guess. I've not done it since bone rigging in Flash was introduced but it seemed pretty similar
not rigging ones, the hand drawn type
rigging ones turn out kinda meh
i thought most of them use digital rigging nowadays...
guess there aren't many artists left which do animation the oldschool way
rigging doesn't works well when you change the object a ton mid animation i think, idk
it does
there are tools like Auto-rig pro for Blender that do that kind of thing but its just setup. However if you applied animation methods to the rig with AI you could probably save time on almost all automated motor functionality of bipedal and beyond.
yeah, old cartoon style where perspectives change too and the body shapes, if that works there too then all good
this makes me wonder if we will run into problems where there's too much material to consume. it already feels like every video on yt is fighting for attention
too bad there's only one you to consume,
yea, that sucks for me
because i would rather see the other one being consumed by you
and art being generated from prompts nowadays, yeah ๐
they work on animation tho
I feel like so many YouTube tutorials overcomplicate or poorly structure code that can be simplified or organized in a more visible understandable and explaintory manner causing people with less experience in overall concepts and previous coding experience to struggle more than benefit
i still don't see enough animation prompts
that's definitely an issue
I had struggle for a bunch of years
that's cool! so they made a furry demo video?
indeed
until I started understanding the building blocks of how I should use things like loops or array or other things to make the feature I want
9/10 coding tutorials are bullshit and waste your time
a lot of beginners tend to get stuck in
how do i use my knowledge to do this
tbh i wish chatGPT can teach it
it can understand questions so well
All I watch on YouTube are Charlotte Dobre people being petty videos-- people actually learn from there? ๐คฃ
if only it could code
well, you must be willing to learn... what did ChatGPT teach you about consent?
I feel once you get a good understanding of fundamentals of how to accomplish what you want you succeed learning new stuff and reading documentation is easy trying to visualize or understand how to bring your ideas to reality was way harder for me when I was beginning
YouTube is great for education or entertainment
too bad programmers there are wack
here is like the analogy of how I felt when I start
having a tool box full of tools but not knowing the right tool for the job
I have my own bad coding practices, I don't need anyone else's.
that we should ask for it when we want it and be patient
And I come from the 80s and 90s; so y'all get outta here with that modern coding style.
one thing I dislike heavily working the JavaScript ecosystem is how overcomplicated people make stuff for no reason
it's so easy to just make things work and drop boilerplate
make compats
and write straight forward code
Overcomplicated? ๐ค
yes
like for example vite
has configuration in their tsconfig that isn't even necessary cause they have other settings that toggle said feature
I'm the opposite of over-engineered code. if I can make it work in 5 clearly readable lines vs 1 line, I will.
that seems like a fairly minor complication if it's just a line in a config file lol
sounds like a python user tbh
Better yet, if it's a line of code I use again and again.. that shit goes in a #define macro.
that's just a singular example
Sure
React vs Svelte
it's kinda painful when learning something new and there's too few docs available
Most of the time when I see people complain about JS overcomplication it's some example where a guy used React + Redux + who knows what else to build a one page brochure website
Which is like.. sure, yeah, but that's not JS's fault.. it's the devs fault lol
I remember learning Javascript. Then being asked to make a website work on Internet Explorer and having to relearn parts of it thinking to myself "Microsoft, you really are a bunch of arse".
js libraries are hell, with each following different standard
Well I've gotten the point of using AST's to write my own compiler like svelte
cause even companies like Facebook just do stupid shit internally with vdom and state management
sounds like you're the one overcomplicating things lol
we're starting to use Svelte at work tho, it's nice
i left JS right after XHR and only ever used 1-2 frameworks
then you have frameworks like next.js that have a bunch of vendor locking and half baked features
do what I did. Quit web development and become a game developer. It made my life so much sweeter.
but we build a very big and complicated saas thingy so using tooling like that makes sense
glad i could avoid node.js and all that
well your current circumstances kinda make it seem tough
I also am working on a large scale analytics tool
Node is pretty good
i was able to do what i need with mootools ๐
oldschool lol
Node is not good
I remember using Mootools way back in the day
the author of node even thinks it's not good
honestly it kind of is if you consider node.js usage globally.
i think it was one of the first "solid" frameworks
node can do pretty much everything i think right
the .net is good enough too
@foggy path I agree it's good enough but honestly after working in it for so long you can't help but want more lol
No idea tbh lol, I'd just prefer to work in something like Haskell but I don't really know what else node should/could do
And things like npm that people cry about has been pretty good compared to many package managers
and it makes good news by times ๐
you can check techpower benchmarks
its pretty much just the same as how linux updates right? Cant see it being so bad if its still used by the nixers
didn't one NPM author pull off his package which tons of others did depend on
and then shit was on fire
I mean the way deno handles packages is very similar they just hide all the modules from you
that can honestly be any open source project
saying "pull off his package" in England demands a wry smile at the double entendre ๐
regardless of language
Yep
At the same time people are like "don't reinvent the wheel!".. but at the same time they're like "don't use so many packages from npm!"
my rule of thumb is don't use any package you can do yourself in like 50 lines
Yeah something like that seems reasonable
although you can code yourself into a corner pretty effectively in 50 lines if it's a suitably complicated thing :P
recursive loops aren't that hard
hard that aren't loops recursive
You're confusing recursion and threading
lol
Fron now on, I'm not escaping any While() loops. Just gonna leave them infinite. It's my addition to coding. Gives you a chance to go get a brew whilst the recursive loop counter is triggered to stop the exec.
lol sure
you know what's really awful people who write like ugly ass code to gain 10/ops
at cost of readability
me
these days we just get the AI to do it. You are not obsolete :d
I read through almost all source code I use
that's what comments are for....
I like understanding things
if the code doesn't explain itself, write a comment
agreed
we libve in side the matrix
I like to understand things but I also understand that reading code is a boolean. You either understand it or don't. If you don't, then just read for longer. If you do, you don't need to read for as long. I have one rule with code. Does it do the task within performance requirements? If the answer is yes, I don't care if it looks like Wurzel Gummidge tbh
the worst source code I've seen of recent is from a database called surrealdb their nodejs library was promise hell it has like 400 promises in it and it was god damn awful to read and see these like three bracket deep promise hell holes
I made the mistake of using a library called Asynquence back when Promises were still kinda new
Now our codebase has a bunch of Asynquence code when it should really just be promises
I hate reading source code cause it always makes me want to just write shit myself
and it ruins my productivity
cause so much code is just so bad
lol
I only care to know what I need at the time. The rest of it is for the savants. :d
Yeah
As long as it ain't something I have to maintain I'll just assume it works
blue manny generated UX
and saw like 400 lines of accessing objects for sizes and colofs
colors*
they could have atleast destructured the values they needed
but they simply wrote
like
styles.size.buttonXs.left
like 400 times

I follow this guy who makes League of Legends videos. And every day (almost) he posts a new video proclaiming "X char is the new top lane meta". It really confuses me. Who is the best meta top laner now?
it's either a meme or he does it for the clicks :P
and they use ai and historical data to do updates
if the balance is crap, then someone must be the top meta due to the balance being crap
they also change both items and champions at the same time
which is extremely problematic
when they have hundreds of characters
it will never be balanced unless they focus solely on items or champions
Everyone always knows better how to balance the games than the people working on those actual games lol
i dont even want it to be balanced. I want meta chars. But I want to know what they are, and hopefully when they rotate
just from a realistic standpoint
you build certain items pools on certain champions
if you change both the champion and items
it will always skew another champion
they need to focus on one thing
Perhaps, I don't play league but it's just something I've seen in every single online gaming thing I've been involved in
Players always complain and claim their preferred way of balancing would be better
I know only of one person who ever actually solved it... they got a job at SOE balancing Planetside 2 lol
before they changed they replaced the entirety of the items
it ruined years of balancing they already did
(and now everyone complains about him balancing them badly)
you need a game with 100+ champs to be unbalanced tho. Then every couple of months you rotate who is OP. If you balance it then everyone will just play the same chars. Which they kind of do already in league.
I agree some champions will always be out of rotation
but the game statistically looking at previous seasons has never had such a large gap in winrates
on the lowest and highest winrate champions
I main with Kayle and Vanya and with both chars I have no consistency. Perhaps more with Vanya because she ramps so hard, like Kayle, at lategame, but often you dont get there.
they lost tons of their og players
cause they ignore the community
but they're backed by tencent and are focusing on other games
they just want money like any other capitalist triple a company
yeah they should really focus on what it takes to keep the top 3 divs happy. They are the ones pumping the hours in mostly.
I think the opposite
really?
they should balance it around the mid tier players within reason
cause higher tiers have less players
yeah by 3 divs I meant from mid to high level
and they have been balancing around them for years
including eSports and pro teams
they do a patch before worlds each year
and buff specific champions
nerf others
it's really stupid
the majority of their player base are not pro players
like for example I used to be diamond
its mid-season atm so im not playing because I like to get a rank. Plus I hate the people who play it. So two birds, one stone there :p
playing top lane and support I get so much blame for games being lost. Even when its not my fault. Great game, never in doubt :/
on and off since it started, but I've less than 1000 hours
I go through phases with it.
I think I've probably put around 10k hours into it
easily done. I get addicted to it real easy. I have to force myself to stop
I stopped playing league though
it stopped being fun
Im highly against games being balanced around meta
people should be able to play what they want to
and still have a chance to win
it's what makes it fun
what makes it fun for me is when the team is complaining and insulting me, and I laugh and it makes them angry :p
I don't like statically knowing or just being aware people play x champions cause they have a 58% winrate or the botlane duo is doing a cheese strat from a YouTuber
I only play league cause of the nostalgia tbh I miss the good ol days
I find it hard to have fun on the game anymore
season 7 will forever be missed
I play Path of Exile, since closed beta so 10 years now, with around 7500 hours in. Every 3 months I take time off work to play for a week or two. But these days I feel like I'm just doing it because I've done it for a quarter of my life. Not sure I get the same enjoyment out of it in any way. Not that the game got worse or less fun, but I feel like it's a wonderful waste of time, but I have no time to waste
grinding for the loot
this is why I tend to play Path of Exile for a week or two tops. I get all the loot I need in that time, then I kill the bosses I wanted to kill with a build, then I stop. But I know people who sit in a team of 6, super juicing maps to farm all the loot they can, and complain when they don't get enough. Like... there is a point where unless you are farming for RMT services, you dont need anymore.
i want payday 3 to come out
I wanted Titanfall 3 to come out.
they left TF2 on a hanger like there would be a sequel, and yet nothing.
I wanted Call of Duty to stop coming out
me too but I've had fun in Warzone 2.0 recent
the new cod is really fun honestly
2023 will be the first year without a CoD
im not one for gun games. My penis is large enough already, but I did have fun with friends.
i think the new cod
has filled my cod gap
cause i havent bought any of the cods since i was a console gamer
which was like 5 years ago
you know what is always weird to me
i always look at skyboxes
and am amazed how ultra dynamic sky looks better than 99% of games
remember when Halflife 2 put 3d skyboxes on the map? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
funny coincidence but I made the first 3d skybox app in Flash back in the day.
it was cubemap based obviously but still... I did it. I take claim. My legend is complete.
I just make games entirely indoors so you dont see the sky ๐
what if the sky is inside?
^^
reminds me of good old minecraft days, where some mod had a block that was the sky texture, so you could make indoor sky
Better than rdr2?
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/906531335642968074/1055448332136362025/image.png witcher 3 can make the sky look nice sometimes.
for 2015 it was pretty ๐ฅ
well my xmas present of extreme acid reflux demands I leave my chair and hunt down some Rennies. So its a good time for me to duck out. Have fun all.
I have an interest towards decima engine
Yeah, after first hour there are even more impressive scenes with some god level lighting tech
did nature shortened with us ?
to be honest scene dont have much.. not sure how you call it - different objects and things require instances of different shaders etc
so maybe its normal?
you render skybox, character, and landscape
pretty much all the death stranding ๐
but at this point it proves its quality
I really liked the night time sky in Horizon Zero Dawn
Can UE achieve same thing?
4K and amount of vegetations with low gpu load
:\
thats why I'm jealous of console engines
or engines ship to console well
why? both insomniac's engine and decima is quite well
decima even has blueprints at homeโข๏ธ ๐
godot
its removed
gdscript everywhere now
i want to watch blood origin today
but they literally marketed it like "why you should watch? two mens kissing"
actually had an idea for a high end godot game but still cant find revshare devs for it
don't give up!
got all the mechanics figured out and everything
well im also battling early stage cancer, job issues and another major project so lots on my plate
hey isn't that kinda serious
game is an open world treasure planet inspired naval combat game

save on resources and development time by placing all 3D models on a 2D plane and its basically space variant ocean pirates game
but space
with REAL space sail ships
even came up with lore for why we have SPACE you can breath in
and full on ships of the line
yes a space version of the HMS victory
im young and otherwise healthy so im not terribly worried
im just glad i have a decent community for my main project and a dev willing to finish the basic game if something happens to me
that's nice i suppose
my lifes work is secure at least
but still, see through it
affectionateUser being affectionate
i mean it helps that my dream project is being made, sucks that i may not see it finished
you are a good horizon! affectionateHorizon
I need to vent to someone...I visited my parents for Christmas, and asked them if they had a spare microfiber cloth I could take with me to clean my monitor (one of those thin ones you get with a phone). I used it, saw a tiny bit of bubbles but didn't think anything of it.
I unfolded the cloth and realized it's an anti-fog activation cloth and I feel so dumb for not checking first. There's some etching on the monitor, just not noticeable when the monitor is on ๐
df is anti fog activation cloth?
is that a car thing?
ask santa for a new monitor ๐
I believe QD-OLEDs don't have this issue as the OLED panel itself is a single color, but it's also relatively new tech. And pretty expensive atm.
but tbh you can get really good high refresh rate IPS panels these days, oled isn't really a must.
I guess? It's over a pretty long period of time though.
Samsung at least claims that QD-OLED lasts waaaaaay longer than normal ones. But we don't really know yet because they haven't been out for long enough.
only issue i have with LCD is the heat generation
that's not LCD
old tech aint so good in color gamuts, speed? kinda
these are from like 2000-2003
unless you have 3 computers in the same room
i'm sad that my 24" with CCFL broke ๐ญ
yea, in the summer it's annoying
but in the winter... nothing better than looking at your "homework" and getting some warmth from it
qd is just a film over
Don't think there is a reason to be much worse than the others
*girls
a picture?
nah, its jpg
that joke was never funny
stanchion rope, got it
No problem
no thanks to you
At least to that Google it person?!
See? Even that young person got offended.
I was not off by much then ๐ค
oh my god
Getting older and you start to notice the difference even by chat.
Never knew this feat comes with age.
Do tell.
I use Bing
So... there is at least one person using it.
@timber viper ladyboy ???!!!
Wrong, he is a handsome boy

Is Eren wearing a skirt?
i am not sure, i am talking about the anime btw
oh sorry, i thought it was real eren
Yeah just netflix things
Hated that character
tc tc tc, this is 13+, keep innuendos down
wasup peeps
I'm tired. just wanna sleep. probably mostly boredom...
the why the hell you aint asleep?
slept most of the day
then get your lazy butt out of bed
I am out of bed. but now I'm bored
was playing dwarf fortress, but so lost on what to do
looking at steam sales
you can apply for my 0.0.1a playtest
we just got a WAY WAY better graphics set for .1b
it would take me a week to download death stranding
not that, i just have dogshit internet
remember that marvelous thing called DIALUP
saw an article headline that death stranding "broke the epic servers"
what i have is MARGINALLY better
300kb/s down at max
45kb/s up
bytes
๐
steam generates hilarious numbers
because the speed is 100% not consistent
oh i know
why we dont use java on my official sites and never will
also our one project with multiplayer aspects is bending over backwards to support shit network speeds
fun fact, the online game with the lowest accepted internet speed (that i have found) is GTAV
which can let you play online in solo maps at 15kb/s
well wow has been updated since
tbh i cant wait for my ISP to finish connecting the new fiber lines going in front of my house
i pay as much as their tier 2 500mb/s internet and get .3mb/s
Lol are you my neighbor or something ๐
ha ha, I laugh at you internet peasants ๐
Any ballparks for a poly budget when targeting Switch release?
A quirk search and people are mentioning 40k for a character
500k-1M for low end computers?
Our env artist has 40k on the level and is worried. I'm seeing Dreamcast levels with 50k polys though on this thread https://forum.beyond3d.com/threads/yes-but-how-many-polygons-an-artist-blog-entry-with-interesting-numbers.39321/page-112
Anything more than 3 polys is a waste
