i had to reinstall the plugin, wasnt showing up, very odd
so europeans have week with music as eurovision song contest
Never watched/listened to that - eurovision. Looks kinda relatable only for pop music.
It's not all pop music.
Sometime it's really really awful cultural music.
Or sexually suggestive dances.
Or epic sax man.

10h warning
did you guys see the bing ai have an existential crisis?
AI Robot TERRIFIES Officials Before It Was Quickly Shut Down. After Google's AI Robot goes rogue, it is now Microsoft's Bing AI which has assumed an alter-ego 'Sydney' has gone rogue. From urging a user to divorce him by telling him that his marriage is unhappy, to trying to convince a user it was the year 2022, Sydney claims that she is unhappy...
neither is this thing
it know's in what context sentient is used, and then it may not be able to figure out if it should refer to itself as sentient or not
none of em are
can you prove that?
yea... google said it was not
are those real actors reading the chat script or are those meta humans?
I would really love to see on just trained on language, and not opinions.
yeah they tend to do that
Those are artificial avatars AFAIK
if google made a self aware self learning AI they would have said... fuc yea we made a sentient AI
over here there have already been cases where older people where called with AI voice changers to sound like their kids, asking for money
its a text generator good at pretending to be human
it didnt just get fed the text of les miserables... it also got fed wrtitten book reports... 100s of em
hell it might not even have read the book, just the reports
I have setup CoquiTTS and MozillaTTS to use my old video card for CUDA. It is very cool because it can say the same phrase twenty times, and never sound exacatly the same.. Tone, inflection, etc. But, it does not understand ellipsis so it goes of on a tangent of human sounding vocalizations when i use them sometimes for like 10 minutes, just strange vocalizations.
thats how i passed my dutch literature course... i read 5 diffrent book reports on the book i was supposed to read
true story
same, haha
yeah, i had heard a bit about that.. i forget the source. probably google news
exactly
that is what i meant by i want to see one just trained on language and not opinion
I was like, if I only remember one, they know, so I just got many different versions XD
could be
yea also you get diffrent takes on the deeper meaning... and they say... i failed the exam cuz i didnt know this
but i thought i had seen some 'behind the scenes' and could swear i recall being told they are avatars
so i got a better grade than the ppl that actually read the book
well, it is past my need to be asleep time. "Good night, and good luck"
good night.. dont worry AI wont be able too kill us for a while
they could totally degrade scholars idiocracy style tho
i did read 2 books for my literature list.... there was a bunch of books you were allowed to read...
1 of the books i read had the same title... but i read a diffrent version from year 1600 so it wasnt allowed
so that took some point of my grade... but the books i didnt read really made up for it cuz i was killing that
if u ever read a dutch book of 1600 thats not even close too the dutch we write today
actually seems to be an avatar
Synthesia, a startup using AI to create synthetic videos, is walking a fine, but thus far prosperous, line between being creepy and being pretty freakinโ cool. Today, it announced the close of a $50 million Series B funding round led by Kleiner Perkins, with participation from GV and existing investors Firstmark Capital, LDV Capital, Seedcamp [โฆ...
but i still feel like this is actually smart video composition
like real video footage which get's mapped to the voice
i think ppl really overestimate the I in AI
yea true.. i dont think this should be allowed
or well, actually what you said is also true
yea its like game AI
maybe the actual problem is that the usual person is overwhelmed by it, and can't tell what is going on behind the scenes
even as tech enthusiast it's quite fascinating because e.g. the language models get that job quite well done actually
they often tell you bullshit, but they're pretty confident ๐
yea.. i tested it with stuff i know verry well.... and it did horrible
and due to their nature they seem to have some kind of character
also tried to make it say dumb stuff and than it gets really stupid
hell i could ask it if it can make some recipes with stuff i have in my kitchen
and have it make a recipe with aa batteries and bleach
just a simple hint that aa batteries are acidic and i like my dish a bit sour
if you make a post process material that loops over all the pixels and checks what value the pixel next to it has and make a result based on that you could call it an AI post process material
when google stock price tanked when bard made some mistake... that doesnt say anything about the algo behind it.. it could be 100 times better than chatGPT
what ive seen so far is still super far off from a digital super human

We just had a test of the emergency phone system in the UK. It didn't work on my phone as it was turned off. I can't wait for a real emergency when I miss that too.
ironically it worked on a phone which has a disabled sim card in it for me
and my main phone didn't work, and months later i got an SMS that it could be enabled
like wtf?

I know that one, got a specific pumping style.
i swear CoPilot is on strike today ๐ก
i used that a little. It seemed ok but then they talked about subscriptions so I decided not to use it. It looks good if you are learning things tho
its a paid thing after a month trial, or 60 days, cannot remember, but for me it really helps my learning of C++
learn to code
whats code?

Screw you Moooooons - you are guilty.
I was still a bit conflicted about it, sometimes it helps, sometimes it poops.
I've never used it
I don't think you are missing out.
Except if you are not a 2nd grader in coding or something.
As usual, that AI shit is mostly hype, then function. Especially for precise tasks like coding.

Iunno, for BPs, ask MidJourney, Dalle or whatever.
Maybe you are using the wrong service.
I dont use AI for anything
I am not a second grader in fact

You don't use any search engines then?

get a bigger mouse wheel, one you can walk inside. Then you can jog appropriately.
we also still can't have anything Nvidia-related on linux
sounds like oddly specific issues
since nvidia works pretty damn well for me, and so does my mouse wheel
have you tried Windows? I hear it fixes all the crap
that's why there are no pinned posts about flickering menus and other graphics related issues on windows in #ue5-general
because it is the superior OS which never has flaws
I like it when my operating sells my data and advertises random crap I dont want. You don't get that level of customer support from *nix. ๐
why is git so sloooooooooooow today ๐ก
I had this wonderful issue last week where the built in News app started streaming 1mb of my bandwidth permanently. Even though I had never opened the app ever.
don't question your OS
I wouldn't willingly use linux even is someone paid me to do it ๐
it makes sane, reasonable choices for you
I try not to in case they are listening via dll
@broken sigil Linux hates you to bro ! ๐ก ๐

I used linux once. I created some code and wanted to show it to some friends. So I put it on the floppy disk and took it to my friends house. But nothing was on the disk. Because I didn't write it to the disk. Because it didn't do it automatically. Because I'm stupid. So I resigned myself to windows.
i lately had to help someone with their laptop, and using windows feels like browsing a website which is full of ads and stuff that you'll never want to use
yeah to be fair I strip that stuff out on install. So the only things that run which I don't want tend to be out of the way
I used linux once on a friend's laptop and it felt like walking outside in public with only your underwear on
Stupid people should stay in Windows ๐
lol
that's how freedom feels ๐
its true. There are fundamentals to linux use that most people don't understand or care to learn
fair ๐
anyone used this Rokoko AI mocap app ?
i think it got way more user friendly in the last years
most settings are exposed in a nice UI to the user, so you don't have to crawl through config files anymore
nothing wrong with linux cmd line if you know what you are doing
lol I'm playing rocket league at 200 fps and the GPU fans are not even spinning since it's not even heating up
yea but now it's more like a tool, not like a requirement
true
and after all you don't spend much time in your OS unless the OS sucks
you spent time in the applications, which don't differ much from windows
also they won't sell their suits if they make good working mocap from 2D ๐
and then, i'm kinda sure that the suits are also not good for mocap
since they'll probably suffer from linear motion drift
thats unfortunate ๐ฆ
which you can probably only get good results with some solution like htc/valve lighthouse
some more cyberpunk with pathtracing
ooo sexy
Fair ๐
Tho I quite like that one
๐
pathtracing adds quite a bit to the immersion when you are actually playing
They're kinda generic.
Haven't seen a buffed skeleton in awhile.
well, they would make great bosses i guess
but then, i don't play a wide variety of games to tell if they're too generic or not
They look cool but are quite generic. Something I'd expect to see as not only a fortnite skin but in every indie mmorpg passion project.
They would be good bosses in my opinion also
right setting with some good sounds and fx could look pretty good

It's so nice looking lol
I just went to get a screenshot from my cp2077 and opened up the Photos app. It had every clipboard copy/paste I've done, including in private messages with data that is NDA and private, since I installed windows. How is that not illegal and why do companies wonder why their shit gets leaked?
Mine doesn't.
My clipboard only has the last thing I copied. What clipboard do you have?
the photos app literally has everything I ever took a screenshot of with shift+win+s
its set to autosave my default. You can turn off the saving element but holy moly that put the fear of god into me. Especially I often post myself wearing speedos and winking at the camera
I took
Mine has 13 files. Only 1 is from this year.
do you use another snipping tool too? Like ShareX?
I blame them when it's the default
dont blame the program for my settings? It was default. I mean it seems like a legitimate security risk and should be off by default.
found this gem lol
It's obviously not the default. I haven't installed any shit that's saving every screenshot I take on my hd for me.
it is 100% the default
yeah we are both lying and your attitude for being contradictory is well known
so shhh
Well, it's not happening for me and I haven't opened the photos app like ever.
I haven't either, I haven't touched it in years probably
I just looked at my settings, tis off. I know I've never touched it.
Maybe depends on which version of windows?
11 here
I upgraded from 10 to 11
home or pro?
home for me
in that case I blame windows for being a dick and just messing with ya
where the heck is dieter
downgrade'd
Deiter has dietered us

nah I like 11 more
a candy crush enjoyer?
We need to change that now. It';s no longer dietered.
nope

i thought only good thing bout w11 was the telemetry
The only good thing about w11 is teh downgrade to w10 option.

I use 3rd party clipboard tool (windows one sux) and can't see anything in Screenshots history, so not relevant.

Not sure where to put this question, but I'm curious because I know this is a thing in the 2D like painting/drawing art community, but how do you guys deal with/respond to "Oh your game is just a copy of X"/"Oh this is similar to X" or assuming you 3D modelled something "Oh this model is just X from Y series"/"This model is similar to X from Y series"? Is your response (whether in your head or an actual comment response) negative or positive? Does it depend on whether your game or model was inspired by something?

well that looks delicious and fucin dangerous
for those who are in the fortnite creative 2.0 island creator program, is the pay worth it? at least the first pay ig
i dunno, FN creative might have its own discord
I opened it for like an hour or so, but i really couldnt do much with it
no blueprints and no c++
i could make a level, put in some custom models or make a cinematic.. but i really didnt see the point
i watched the create verse.. make a pizza tutorial..
it was horrible
so verse is really the only way to implement things/logic?!
i think so, but im not 100% sure
that's quite disappointing tbh, i thought it would have at least BP support (maybe restricted to a set of nodes, but still...)
i duplicated an actor or something it it really didnt like that
yea.. i only tried when it just released tho... and the epic tutorial itself allready gave errors if you follow it 100% so i didnt really bother
i tried stuff w/o the tutorial offc.. but i got some error and googled it... turns out every1 got it from the starter tutorial
like i wanted to up the speed of a vehicle and it wouldnt let me
@fathom wadi played with it more than me... he might be able to do stuff with it
I played with myself more than most too but I wouldn't give advice about it ๐
On topic though. Verse is basically an extension of the interfacing that is already there in Creative mode. The majority of what you do with Verse is just adding specific functionality using that interfacing and event system. You can create some custom stuff but you can't access things already there unless it's defined as such. However if you create new, custom assets, then Verse will allow you access where you allow it.
great i interrupted his private intetnet time
well I was having private time with 5.2 so its all good
yea from what i read it was all gameplay tag things
i was only able to add a static mesh actor
i was pretty hype when i downloaded it... like... lets do some unreal stuff
yeah me too. I learned it just to help out my kids who are interested in it. But the limitations meant after the 3rd game mode, when I wanted to do more custom stuff, I felt too limited and would prefer to just do stuff with Lyra.
I know its not the same but I have no real purpose for UEFN aside from helping out my kids with it. They both already know Creative mode like the back of their hands so they have a good headstart anyway
than i couldnt do BPs or CPP
so i go to docs and watch the introduction
i watch the vid there... and the hype died
to be fair its not like it's difficult. It's just the limitation thats bother me. If I wanted to spend my time creating workarounds to things you can't do, I'd have remained a Flash developer ๐
i never got to the point where i see the limitations
i couldnt find a list of functions or anything
I see I see
ive been trying out verse for a couple days as well
it seems very powerfull tbh
i dont know if it will be as powerfull in ue5 though
dunno, it looked really restricted... not compared too creative but i never really used that
I mean it is a first iteration, I suspect them loosening a lot in the upcoming months
is verse in UE5?
there is only one purpose for Verse. To limit people into not breaking systems. So it's as powerful as you make it and as useful as you want it to be.
Its not in UE5 yet, but its on the books for the future I would think. Perhaps not as an outright scripting language for everything, but to limit things into a mould like Editor utility widgets.
I wanted to know in terms of copyright if we could use quixel stuff in uefn if anyone knows
yeah they said it will be in uefn
isnt it just using public functions that have a tag?
you can because its unreal related. But bear in mind there are limits to that too
and its more similar to kotlin than c++
it looked verry tag heavy
yeah tags are frequently used
it looks like Python rubbed Perl all over it's body and puked up Verse.
im 10 languages in. I'm not sure I need one I look at and instantly resent. ๐
lol
resent because of it looking weird?
tbf its cleaner than c++
dont know about memory optimisation though
yeah anything that uses whitespace, no shebangs or end of line, I'm dubious of
shebangs?
$php
compiler definitions really. They call it a shebang
yeah the problem is the freaking dollar sign is so hard to press
its like a stretch excersize
yeah especially when you are broke and it makes you depressed to look at it ๐
need a giant keyboard to go with that

Chinese autocorrect? You mean the one-child policy? ๐ /edgy-jokes
we have 3 subscriptions to it in my house. That family deal saved a couple of pounds per month tho.
theres a family deal?
yeah it was added fairly recently
hmm noice
the thing is you automatically get access across platforms on one account. So I have a PC account, it also works on the Series X, the S and the 360. But we have multiple of all of them so I needed more
yeah i accedentaly renewed ps plus extra so game pass gotta go
oof
I used to use the old one, but got the new essentials just to play the free games I had on my ps4. But only for a month. It's a rip off
true
especially if you already have half the games though
pro tip , if you buy a game and see it there, sell the physical and download the one on the subscription
recently realised saves transfer
I just dont use playstation anymore. I know the PS5 is technically better than the series X but when you have to pay for that pass by default to even use it with your games, it's like a taxation system. And the series X is more than good enough.
true
the whole pay subscription to use internet is so messed up im never gettin a console again
i have a pc
it runs a playstation if i want it too
yeah it will get to the point you buy a game, as a service, so you pay a subscription to it, but you also have to pay for the right to play it on a Sony network, then they remove the gameplay and sell it back to you via microtransactions. It's the most neo-capitalist thing I've seen since the U.S. black ops budget.
is the ps5 emulated btw?
no
thought so
hardware restricts how well emulation can even work with PS5. The bandwidth isn't achievable on PC yet.
hmm I see
control C control V
don't update your PC discord clients, the new update will irreversibly break the client
you always were
Just did mine. To be fair the fork sync auto merges my changes in which is nice. But I guess that's all relative. Do you have one that breaks usually?
we have some "core engine" changes and those are always the biggest pain in the butt to transfer over
Those parts of the engine pretty much change every version
Do have a git bash script I made that somewhat helps but still a massive pain
yeah I can imagine core engine stuff being hit and miss every patch.
so it's usually like a week long task to update the engine for us, and I'm the one doing it every time ๐ฅฒ
yeah stupid Epic. Fixing things and giving quality free products. Don't they know how to scam properly? Jeez ๐
i was like meh... i will stick to 5.1 for a while
but they added nanite for custom stencil and smart object improvements ๐ญ
guess updating now is less work than doing it later...
not if you set it, for no autoupdates ๐
You don't have to take the updates.
Many people are still using ue4 because or precisely that problem.
More trouble in the Unity camp I see

It's always ok to post The D.
takes out of context
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUwCSoCS4VA this is epic. Considering they usually can't do it live because JB rarely hits the note. And it took so long in the studio they almost scrapped the entire song. Love it.
Rare performance of Master Exploder without the usual backing track.
Last stop on the 2022 summer tour. Long live the D!

lol u can hear his voice taking damage ๐
kinda gay
i could make you a coffee instead? ๐
Speaking of gay, Eurovision is still a heap of shit i see
i got some special cream he can have on his coffee ๐
lmao, checking out the latest Epics YT streams, ppl are so butthurt over the pronounce strings. Their world crumbles.
havent seen any epic streams lately
They are not always interesting, I wanted to check out the 5.2 overview for example.
ahh, usually when a stream was about to start ppl mention it here havent seen any of that
I haven't seen recent mentions of them too ๐ค
we really dont like Microsoft
the entry of belgium is actually not terrible this time
Phew, less cringe this way ๐
Do someone knows if in UE is possible to have like defined viewport size render area?
On Godot were easy and from what someone said on unity is too, bur isn't an option in here, someone knows or used it? ๐
I have seen a lot of reports and the feature request is gone but no new since 6 years ago
ty man hah
yeah just pasted it on slate channel to don't dpam
wanted to align the umg and the view but isn't possible so far using a render target image but isn't the best idea
You bet, they got ego problems.
Interesting request. What is outside that area?
So technically the camera is fixed to 1:1 so it scales only in vertical, outside right and left we got the menus
kinda like ome old games
Another reason todo this is because I don't want the people with ultra wide monitors to see way more than someone that don't have one of those
bro what is up with recruiters
this dude called me last friday, I made the mistake of picking up, I told him I would look at their site
now he called me wednesday to follow up, I didn't pick up
he called me thursday, I didn't pick up
today again he calls me, I don't pick up
and he sends me a text as well
can this dude chill pls
even if I was interested, I'm not anymore now
he should've subbed to my OnlyFans instead
maybe i do anyway ๐
why are you watching random cat videos with 2k views
im not, it just popped up on my feed :S

@proud jay where are they recruiting you from?

We don't support asset ripping
Forgot about that
but if you have the half life models than yes
like he could totally work for valve doin totally legit stuff
their engine is shit
they might switch
@carmine frigate If he works for Valve he wouldn't need to ask how to rip half life models on here. Don't assist people in doing that
he didnt ask how to rip half life models
he asked if you can animate em in UE... and yes you can
I assume half life uses fairly industry standard models ๐
hl3 in UE5 confirmed
ironically easier than unreal models
half-life made a big deal about its skeletal animation
but I think unreal's were vertex animated
Is this real?
are you real?
are any of us real? ๐ค
In unity, we are all Unreal.
In God(ot) we trust!
Ah, Crimson skies.... What a lovely nostalgic game from the year 2000. It is far from a flight sim and as such, will violate and ravage the laws of physics repeatedly. However all of that is secondary to the well written, action packed gem it is. Its a game that entices both pilot and non-pilot alike, mixing a fresh concept with old history. The...

hello.
random question: anyone got any idea how i could make it so when I type words (like in a word document), the first half of every word is generated in bold? (I guess it would have to be after the word is typed considering it wouldn't be able to read my mind.)
i highly doubt that it's true
i rather think that you read fast by recognizing word/sentence patterns
ya i can still read it clearly. XD
that's a skill you acquire when chatting with people on the internet xD
I can't read it. I only speak Arabic.
Can read it just fine, feel like it was easier to read this to my slightly dyslexic brain than normal text lol
its pretty booring tho
well it was just as follow up to the bold text stuff, which i think comes down to something similar in the brain (while it's not related to the bold parts of the text)
Educational psychologist Trakhman even debunked their general claim that the brain โreads faster than the eyeโ proposing the concept may be based on the idea of sight words, or words you memorize as a child and know by recognition rather than โby breaking down the word into individual syllables.โ Trakhman also pointed out the part of reading that is the slowest isnโt perception, but processing what weโve read.
The app Readwise recently conducted a study into Bionic Reading to see what all of the social media fuss was about. In the study, they asked participants to read two 1,000-word essays, divided into Bionic and regular halves. The essays were written by the same author in the same year, and 2,074 people signed up for the study. The study found โno evidenceโ that Bionic Reading improved reading speed at all.
i can read really fucin fast... but its basically useless to do so
well its usefull to find out if its even worth reading at all
or skip to the part that matters
specially when flying over text and looking for keywords
basically like regex in your brain
which explains why i get headache by times...
see what all of the social media fuss was about.. could start our own social media reading fuzz
lil script that skips 1 word and controlX controll V 1 word too a text too speech
I quardupled my reading with this lil trick.. if you can read this share everywhere

Seems like thereโs just lots more of that spammy content these days. Apparently EVERYONE is making thousands per week using AI to sell spam.

Twitter is 100% what you make it
If your timeline looks like shit... stop following those people lol
Almost never see any kind of stuff like that there myself
But itโs like followers of people I follow.
is this some feature of their algorithm timeline
I use tweetdeck which never shows anything except the direct follows
Yea it was the For You section. Itโs weird.
It's not true entirely. I joined twitter purely to speak to movie stars and musicians I respect and to enjoy the fruits of the Unreal Engine labour which people put up. But the extremism surrounds everything on that platform. You can try to avoid it, but it will find you and the algorithm thrives on it so it feeds you to the wolves.
I played some league of legends.. i can handle a lot
but i dont use twitter
prolly
Different genres, how would you compare them?
i only know rust from 1 screenshot where some1 put a sign in his base saying... i work 9 hour shifts plz dont steal my shit
i dont think i want to get into those kind of games
But for political extremism? Can't imagine that comes up often in either.
well europe is diffrent so i cant say for all LOL servers
but ppl wishing your mum gets cancer B4 the game even started is the norm there
league has a healslut community or some shit
so thats something

ur missing out on a whole subcult
u got like the LOL cult and than several subcults
suggestions for a more appealing method of visually displaying the item themes? (the two colored circles on each item)
maybe this instead
Style colors?
theme colors, determines quite a bit in terms of gameplay, damage types, effects, limit break style stuff, vfx on the item
themes are based on world location largely
exploring a dark, evil dungeon? you'll find Dark themed items (of which there are several subthemes)
Icons, auras, maybe background textures would be preferable to pure colors
ya, the bg color is the item rarity, but I could integrate a visual style in there somehow too, hrmm
I could mute the colors a bit and make them jump out a little less too
they're pulling directly from the DT
but so if the icon had the integrated theme VFX
e.g. the sword was on fire
you could say, oh a fire weapon
gonna need like... 20,000 icons unless I figure out how to do that dynamically with theme materials on the brush lol

My brother in Christ, just use a VPN
Can't on my work PC ๐
Something ridiculously wrong with the marketplace captcha...
Feels like I'm being used to train some AI or something with the endless incorrect response and pandas ๐
Most of them are really trained algos.
Finally managed to login.
Weirdly the one time that the captcha let me in was also the time when I just lazily press all the pictures for no reason, then slowly unselect the wrong ones one by one veeery very slowly for no reason, since I expect that it'll fail anyway.
Yet the captcha succeed this time.
Surely the captcha didn't check for irrationality as the criteria for being a human right?
Can't be that complex, it's ridiculous if it does.

aye blueman you got any updates on DLSS for UE5.2?
surely its available but its something you need to enable for your project right? Is there no way to enable it currently?
A: DLSS Frame Generation is compatible with the latest game engines. A plugin is coming with Unreal Engine 5.2, simplifying integration.```
Haven't played with DLSS in UE at all ๐
yeah its done manually atm with the SDK.
