@timber viper where the heck are you and where is my BP2CPP trial? ๐
I found a way to make some of the nativized functions match handwritten C++ code performance 1:1
and working on it these days
๐ฎ
What if the handwritten code is really shit?
Like worse then generated bp2cpp?
idk how can u succeed on that
i'd congratulate
Just regenerate a few landscapes on tick while sampling a simple small little 48GB data table
Thatโs awesome. Trial key when? ๐
Event Tick->Get actor of class: Actor -> Delay -> insert heavy code of choice
I'm not sure if I know how to write server side auth to provide trial keys 
I mean youโll prly need to have some form of trial, I imagine?
i might not be able to
I thought youโre selling this to companies. How will they be able to test it and find out if they want to buy it?
And will you have diff tiers or seat based pricing ?
selling to a big company means you'll involve in a long and boring legal process
which means I can distribute through a NDA
indie license and big company license
i kinda want to assetflip the new animation thing to a pakour endless runner. with vampire survivor mechanics
So do it
@queen isle I'm trying to make a vampire rpg
Iโm sure all those people waiting for the motion matching samples are planning the exact same thing ๐
Have you decided on pricing yet ?
indie license will be cheaper than voxel pro, big company license will be based on negotation
Cool what your pitch? mechanics?
๐
@queen isle my pitch is a rpg like classic games like vtmb 04 and Balders gates 1 and 2 with a semi open world game that takes place in Manhattan
Huh pretty cool. we don't get many rpgs set in modern times.
Atleast I don't think so
Yeah I've been going back and forth between making it a book and a game
@timber viper tbh I'm not really sure
@timber viper I'd Be down for any location as long as the project gets up off the ground
speaking of, I gotta try the update
do it, its just buffs all around, no nerfs
gib
yeah they buffed my machine gun ๐ฅณ
they buffed my orbital airburst strike๐ฅณ
I thought buffs wouldnt land till christmas ๐
now if only they buffed the stupid drones to fly higher
Im just glad they stopped the fire tornados following me
oh also, that reminded me, they got rid of the -1 strategem
Apparently the patrol issue still exists, they need to put a cooldown on the call for reinforcements
you end up with all these patrols and drop ships/breaches on your position then they keep calling for help so you can never mow through them fast enough

Oh no, Banana is now the second highest game on steamcharts
lol
I am becoming skilled with using Fooocus and image prompts, now. ๐ Getting great results compared to the input concept images.
I have to say, this is addictive. ๐
๐คฃ This just goes to show how horny these AI model creators are. I asked for a man in the picture and the AI designs a woman regardless. Good thing I asked for ten images. Let's hope at least one of those has a man in it.
We need more thirsty women working in AI
then every time you ask for a woman you get Chris Hemsworth shirtless
๐ค I do believe I'll need to get man-specific LORAs. Perhaps the model, too.
wait till you discover civitai
๐คฃ Where do you think I am downloading models and LORAs for Fooocus from?
that place is cursed ๐
I empathise entirely.
I did, however, get some good models from it. I'll need to spend more time looking for man-specific, good ones, but I don't want to feed my AI addiction.
Blue, this is your fault.
You taught me to install this stuff.
You set me on this dark side of the Farce.
#generative-ai message - Yelling at the model to ignore women worked.
blue man must have enjoyed Night springs episodes
No, no, good influence.
I have learned a lot in a very short span of time. I don't think I'd have dabbled in LLMs and local image generators otherwise.
I'd have been stupidly happy with online, limited ones.
Is there a difference between any of the vc's?
there's one for afk people
That's it?
Lol ok thanks
yo rain
silent studies is for, well, slient study. you can stream but no one can talk
thats about it
so the guitar was 5-7 weeks before it was in stock right, and they sent me a mail yesterday to tell me my order was delayed
and they said estimated shipping date 22/07
I can't stream in any of them
bruh
you need the bot to give you stream access first
made in china afaik
ah
are you excited
of course
now if my hype dies down it will be reignited once it arrives
perfect plan
you said your wife had an acoustic right? start practicing chords, itll help
that's what I've been doing already
nice
And there ends the Prologue - Part 1. ๐
Time to get this released on the myriad freeloader platforms.
but gotto start somewherre
Thereafter, it's Morelogue time.
I'm enjoying even the simple excercises though
nice, play wonderwall lmao
im joking
but yeah thats nice
that was mentioned in the lesson thing I'm following lol
I'm doing https://www.justinguitar.com/
since everyone on reddit seemed to recommend that
it's actually nice to see
cause the guy knows how to play
and then made a course, but he made sure that his course worked by following it himself, but playing lefthanded
so it's funny that you can see him struggle just as much as you if you want
yeah wonderwall is stupid easy to play, sounds kinda okay and can be sung by a trashcan. so in colleges first or second years would always bring out guitars and play wonderwall to attract the opposite gender lmao
it was funny to watch
yeah thats common lol, otherwise we'd be disheartened
ive followed him too
many many years ago
yee
oh btw @proud jay , im working on making the game pretty now, fixed most of the bugs of the build system so i figured its time to work on the art a little
very nice
starting with remaking my main level and making it bigger
nothing beats programmer art blocks though
yeaaaah
i was just telling mom yesterday how its unfair that artists can learn to code but programmers cant learn to art so easily
well idk if coding is that easy for artists either tbh
it really is a different brain thing
I had an artist friend and no matter how hard he tried, he was just always shit at coding
he somehow couldn't grasp the basics
hmm, how basic we talking
even like return statements he didn't get how they worked lol
oh
hmm, i guess
now i can hopefully actually put out screenshots that doesnt look like troll vomit
lol
I was always shit at 2d art
but I was pretty decent at 3d if I do say so myself
not actual artist level, but not bad
I did enjoy it
why did you close the embed
I always do
I shortly considered going into movie production 3D stuff, but I was just better at and more passionate about programming
i like how the first thing you made it do was the fortnite dance lmao
really cool car
eyy i like the visual effects video
lol
I didn't make the model on that though
all the rest I did
that was just a rigging thing
heathen
gmail, like a normal person
I use gmail for spam
thanks, I fucked up the rims though
even dieter collects analytics and tracking data ๐
that's just a wordpress thing
lol
oi listen, do any of you have a good resource where i can learn how to design game UI? ive seen plenty of general UX courses but none of them focused on making games which imo is fundamentally different from other UI where the UI takes a backseat to the game graphics and on screen action
The website's nice, Dieter. Clean and simple. Good style.
thanks I guess
The lack of bread therein is concerning, however.

I don't, the only good part of a custom web

I will when looking for a new job
why did this remind of star citizen lol
Not gonna link you You want me to lick you, not even asking please
it somehow reminds me of a sharp booty
actually that web is prior star citizen

or maybe not, idk
hevedy is pretty much geriatryc

VISYER trello roadmap
that was abandoned before started with clients
yeah
this is the other new thing https://www.hevedy.com/attheparrot/ https://trello.com/b/R104nGif/theparrot-roadmap
should come back to make updates or something
nice
That's is using the UE4 feature for shared game cross web browsers
well I use it for clients, and still need an update so
his web is better structured
brb, dying inside
I just made it when I got out of school to find a job though
hev is like 74 years old
XDDD
he's had time to perfect his craft
69*
Imagine you'll actually have to update it at 74 cause we'll still have to work then ๐ข
bet will be the case at this rate lol
will have to start recording things and upload it to youtube or so
and the of
You been hanging out with au too much ๐น
I been getting warnings on FB that Im blocked when watching videos on brave
Creating new book cover artwork using lots of AI generated concept images = PITA, but worthwhile, especially given Photoshop's content-aware move tool.
It just copies, moves, and merges stuff around like a pro. ๐
The owner certainly knows how to keep himself positive. ๐
Got me in the first half, ngl
Because Godzilla is mutant Chuck Norris. The ocean floor automatically rises to accommodate his legs.
Also, see dog in generative-ai.
Clearly he can thread water
Nah the toes turn into nuclear powered propellers and push him up
Godzilla loves NukaCola
Okay, you are all wrong. Listen carefully now.
His real name is Gesus Zhrist.
He's the lizard messiah.
He can walk on water.
There's a book called the Gibble that his followers read every Sunday.
Well, you just arrived. ๐
@trail ore Now, listen carefully.
You will laugh at the memes.
I need an AI program to take a look at my Task Manager and kill all the processes I need, whenever I need it.
it should only kill them when they gain focus
Nice try. But, no.
I need the AI to only eliminate all the processes + sub-processes + related processes of the problem children I detest.
For example, right now, I had to eliminate all the processes of Adobe Creative Cloud and its UI Helper, and a bunch of other sub-applications.
Then, I could restart the app and update Photoshop. PITA.
An AI would've saved me several mouse clicks in T.M.
Of course, Adobe could also fix their launcher and its sub-processes, but then I'd be expecting too much, such as reliability and quality control.
Actually, I just corrected an image of a samurai armoured dog with five legs in Fooocus.
Of course, Fooocus's model generated that image in the first place, but an outpaint edit command simply removed the extra leg perfectly.
write an open email to adobe suggesting that task killer as their new AI feature
you can just write it in photoshop actually and save it
it's an open letter at this point of time
I might as well just google it, honestly. I assume someone's made it already.
Those processes are needed and activate by themselves when the CC app spins up, which also happens when Photoshop is opened. The problem I think lies with their updater software.
For some reason, when one of those sub-processes is opened - I don't know which... yet - the updater fails.
You'd think, but when you start updating an app, it is treated as uninstalled.
So, even if the update fails, you have to finish it successfully or you can't run the app anymore.
๐คฃ
i somehow love that you suggest AI as solution to this on a discord which is mostly about software development
just make a diff of the process list before and after you launched adobe shit
It's not a solution to this. It's convenience for me.
then save the process list and make a script which kills them all
Which is the only point that matters. ๐
Aye, but I can use the same AI for other programs with such problems.
maybe i'm too much stuck in the linux world to come up with a sane solution
I wouldn't have to click or type.
In fact, just yelling at my mic should make the AI do the job.
Love Simpsons.
Actually, I forget the name of that game, which refused to allow the Task Manager to come to the front.
A voice-activated T.M. process killer would've been nifty there.
Played the first one so far, the first episode was hilarious
Need to play the other 2
seems all are hilarious too
u deleted ur msg, tc tc tc #lounge message
Now it looks like I'm talking to myself, there are still few decades to that moment.
That was a bug iirc at some point.
Average modded Skyrim experience.
God I hate this EA shite excuse of an app
I'm just trying to play the game I bought on steam, but the EA app is having a hissy fit and either won't load, or just opens and closes itself
Thanks EA, always making the UX better and better
</rant>
pro-tip: make sure game is not from EA, Ubisoft, Rockstar, square enix, etc etc before purchasing
14th time clicking "play", 14th time it says "preparing game" and doesn't in fact prepare the game
I will still succumb to Square Enix because they hold the keys to my beloved tomb raider
EA I was happy to forget existed since I lost interest in Battlefield 1, though BF2042 was something I wanted to try and it was dirt cheap last sale so I cracked
And now have to deal with the joys of their shit data farm launcher
I'm sorry, but now I'm going to have to ban you from the server
..erm. doesnt seem to be working
well. ok then. Just... well you have to deal with the ea launcher, so I guess thats punishment
Tell me how it says "Something went wrong, there was a problem with your account"
And then the game window pops up.
Someone make it make sense, I'm going insane here.
hey I spent the day fighting a corrupted BP and c++ code where I didnt know what I was doing, so I know nothing of making sense
What anti cheat? could have fooled me
exactly. It doesnโt catch hackersโฆ.but wait you have ICUE? Hang on you wanna player single player? Nuh uh out ya go
single player? bf2042? now I know you're crazy :P
๐
Iโve almost sworn off EA but they pretty much have exclusive right to Star Wars games :/
#unreal-news message
Anyone downloaded it and knows if the animations can be exported?
you can export animations from UE generally
e.g. if you want to tweak them
however the license doesn't allow usage outside of UE projects, so if you plan to use them in another engine, etc. you may get into trouble
yeah no for use in Unreal just to tweak them and stuff. Because I saw the showcase and I wasn't sure if they could be exported or if they had been made internally in the engine and for some reason or another cannot be exported. I have almost no space so I'd need to delete some stuff to install it so wanted to make sure if anyone had tried it or smth.
Guess when Creation Club (paid mods) got introduced, lol.
Goes for any game of theirs, skyrim, fallout 4, etc
I don't see it as bad idea to pay for mods, it just the execution is somehow not right.
hard enough getting people to pay full price for games let alone mods ๐
Well, they should be cheaper in general. A trial could be nice too.
And not all of them should be paid, up to the authors.
Apparently donations don't work well.
tbh they should reward loyal players with some sort of credit to buy them with
hmm.. why?
if I sunk a few thousand hours into a game I think Id scoff at paying money for mods when Im playing their game almost exclusively
but for joe newb who put 25hrs in, maybe paid mods is fair
Different authors tho. One is fan made, others is the studio.
Why pay for mods when people who enjoy the game will make a mod for it and release for free
I see it an optional, up to the mod author. Not everyone feels like pouring weeks to make something for free.
Gotta eat at least.
Its fair to try to atleast break even
If the mod is really well made, yeah.
I see it as kinda fan made DLCs, from shit to diamonds. That's why is good to have a trial, good description, check reviews, etc. All things which Creation Club does not have.
I'd pay money for that really huge mod for skyrim that's been hyped up for years now
The whole rework? uuh, forgot its name ๐ค
Epics official MP doesnt even have all that ๐น
Enderal?
I nodded greenhell, and cheated back all my progress I lost
Could spawn anything, also worked in multiplayer, on someone else's server.
Fortnite modders prolly got a better MP than the rest of us ๐
When Bethesda is rocket science when compared to your stuff.
What about steam workshop?
I like how easy is to operate, but it also kinda miss framework around it. The closest thing I see is what say Nexus Mods provide.
Steam workshop is wishy washy asf ngl
It works 99% of the time, but that 1% time it doesnt is annoying and you have to do so much shit to fix it
The people who make mods and post them should probably remove their creations or tell you they dont work any longer too lol that was a pain in the ass to fix as well
surely MS could put together a decent platform for mods, ooohhh right nvm ๐น

I've never seen lady bugs get that big before, usually smaller
They're eating good while guarding my pumpkin
These look like the Chinese ones we got here few years ago. They were like a scourge. Many of them, everywhere. A friend's villa rooms where covered in dead bugs after he sprayed. Luckily, their population went down as of late.
Lady bugs are beneficial tho
Carnivorous insects that eat pests
I've seen some asian lady bugs
Finally identified that one bug I've been seeing alot, it's a leafhopper. Prime reason why I'm seeing so many lady bugs and assassin bugs
Not to mention why theres so many spiders also cooped up
We had some european wasps, we found the nest finally and it was huuuge
hmm Im totally confused by this game, its not what I expected
What game
I dunno, if only discord had a feature to see what people were playing ๐
-_-
you mean i need to do all the research
WOOOOOOO GOTCH'ASS

but have you seen the boss karen
i talked to windus yesterday, yeah
This is a lie.
I can attest, certify, notarise, and stress that you did NOT in fact speak to me yesterday. Indian time.

When did you have a manager? I thought you were an indie dev.

@fleet tangle are you still sure may and can is same
i hate this stupid engine sometimes
Real or AI
both look a bit like ai to me
i always hated that in some teachers
"its may i go to the bathroom" woman, i am about to crap my pants in this chair, you want to see and smell it, or just accept the intended correct terms and let me do my business
lol i once was really tired at school and really needed to pee but the teacher was being pendantic "i dont know, CAN you go to the bathroom?"
I said, "yes" and just walked out lmao
got sent to the principal for that
i remember one kid did that, and the principle had to basically have a staff meeting to tell them to knock it off because they had to recarpet the entire classroom
i mean the kid was clearly fighting their lives and last person to do what you did got saturday school, so he just let rip the most heignous taco bell inspired crap out
you could smell it in the hall, and the classroom had to use air fresheners for the next 3 months
they just threw the chair out because it got stained
it was one of those ultra hard to damage plastic chairs that can survive the nuclear apocalypse
have you ever accidentally burned a syrofoam ramen noodle cup?
it smelled worse than that
No, I have burned rice & veggies box from similar material.
now imagine that but... worse
dude never got let down as the chair burner
like that was his nickname for the next 3 years
then we had the guy who did burn a ramen noodle cup in the lunch room microwaves
Thats the way
they had to throw that thing out and spent 4 days trying to get the smell out of the room
im surprised the military didnt seize him to conduct weapons research
chair stainer spent 3 days in the hospital after it
flameonoodles kid got banned from ever using those micro waves again
yelled at every time
what the fuck is this shit
this level worked fine in 5.1, i dont understand why its not working now
black hole creator
its not supposed to be a blackhole but i guess it does look like one right now
everything in te scene simply disappears when the camera is at a certain height

My phone is full of random photos of everything lol
Everything? Pull up a picture of me then
My phone has 16GBs of storage, I only a gig worth of photos/videos. And half a gig of apps I installed, which is 3 apps) yet 14.79 gigs is used
What went wrong
I'm just a cog in the machine
You transpiled bp to cpp and 64 bit floats are beyond you? -_-
Mine has half a terabyte and 80 ish GB has gone on pictures and videos
Will probably transfer some to my external drive
What the hell is taking up the other 12.5 gigs

@errant raven ranks do be messed up. Everybody is silver and some play really good (and have 10 year coins) and some play really bad
Guess you gotta grind for ages to get into nova
And one more before I go to bed 
In csgo, I played 1 game, got nova 1, played 8 more games and won 6 lost 2, got nova 2. Played 6 games in nova 2 and won 4, lost 1, tied 1 , got nova 3 from the tie.
Was silver 4 the last time I played. Which was 2 years ago before that.
Theres at least 1 or 2 team mates that fumble with weird decisions
Not saying it's not fun
Just like the old days
But new cache map when?
Fuck cache, i want cobblestone
Cache was the best
If I warmed up before playing that day, I guarantee you I would've gotten mg1.
Hope they keep all the boosts
Another day, another dollar
Their top frag and our top frag were cheating
I played and won against lem-globals for 6 of those 10 wins. Right under top fragger or under the second one after top frag. Last 4 I won was against mg-dmg. Somehow got gold nova master
Needs more elo
All it's doing is also playing against silvers and 4k premier ratings now
Like bro, I know I'm far better than this shit. Why are you making me play with and against bad players.
Work, work, work.
It's not like csgo ranks were any better, some people I used to play with were all silvers the first time I met them. Played with them again last year. That's what it's like to be boosted to a rank you dont deserve
i thougtht this was funny
Towards cardio, no. It does count towards burnt out brain cells.
So, bradio, probably.
@unborn lotus leetify estimates that I'm roughly 10k for premier rating tho. Also, 87% of the time I solo Queue.

@timber viper @empty dune yall are fighting bugs in a video game, I'm fighting bugs in real life. We are not the same.
Flicked that fucker pretty hard
that looks a bit too large for lady bugs
They do, they only eat their eggs and larvae tho
Nothing they can do to the adults, too big
thought lady bugs are mainly good against louse
That's not a lady bug
That is a leafhopper. They eat the sap plants produce and it causes those brown edges

funny how Google said that when I typed that message in ๐ค
good to know
1 of a million services they have xD next learning curve is game lift
im not excited lol
I got an advert for AWS while watching House on Prime the other day.
Who tf watching amazon prime boxsets is thinking "man if only there was someone who could host my data".
Anyone needing their services already knows about AWS ๐, and about .00001% of the userbase of prime would even need those services.
you?
lmao
lol thats amazing yeah AWS kinda doesnt need ads....
I didn't know about it till 1 month
yeah but you also likely arent into backends
true
if you need a backend you arent gonna be convinved off an AD XD
young people might, trust
they won't though
young people cant afford a backend
exactly
nor do they need one
not yet
not ever xD
it's introducing them to see a product at first
young people don't need a backend, and young people like cheap things, they're not going for a backend with notoriously expensive prices.
never say never :3
the only exception to this is maybe a college student thats going into that field and needs exposure
but even then they dont need it their company needs them to do it
no one's thinking "damn I could use gamelift for my Minecraft server",
they're going straight to something that lets them run it for like ยฃ0.50 a month

I dont miss hosting minecraft servers xD
but yes to the point AWS or azure or whatever flavor you want is way overkill for most people
oh yes I will wait until AWS makes it free XD Might be waiting a while
I just realized that these guys made over 25k

By the time you need AWS you already know about AWS and have massively considered the alternatives. And at that point an ad isn't doing anything for you.
exactly
you are right, I'm wrong
I'm pretty sure the first name in anyone's mind when they think backend is AWS, then they remember better things exist.
shots fired xD
well in some cases, I know jack shit about most of their products
I know that google is giving 300$
pretty much everyone does
aws is 300$ and then 1 year of free tier services
Azure is great, especially Azure DevOps.
Only issue is their Azure Pipelines, which is shit. $30 per month per build agent to use your own hardware
0.o
I really need to look at azure devops
I eventually am considering a cloud perforce servr
why not buying your own server
I started using it havn't looked back
I have two
how do you figure that?
people told me not to, that's pertty dumb
I wanna make a system like them
who told you that lol
A server's great if you need one. You don't need one
You want to make a system like them and that's how you know they made 25k?
yeah exactly
basically it's like roblox, you do the price * 0.75 * Number of Review * 15
????
Ok, so no actual metrics there
so ya guestimated lol
Just the ballpark figure
what would you suggest then?
Notice their reviews and how most of them have a discord username in them
why does it matter what they made
This means that to get discord support and github source code, they make you leave a 5 star review
That throws the metric off as it's a scam review farm
that really needs to be addressed
Meaning those 21 reviews are more likely most of their customers
its so annoying
It's also illegal I'm 99% sure
yah doesnt epic say dont do that?
yeah or the reviews are the 12 discord mods they have XD
I want to make money too
Chances are you won't
Yeah or remove after verifying product.
LMAO
wtv, yoiu understood me
Consider that even with your guesstimate of 25k, that this plugin has been in active development for 4 years. Which gives you a salary of ยฃ6250 a year. That's before tax and platform costs too
what platform cost?
translation: you still need a day job XD
The cut the platform takes for hosting your plugin
Not sure what the marketplace's is
that's the 0.75
12%?
If I had to guess with epic it's 15%
I think 12 is for games but maybe they copy it
oh no it is 12
oh well there ya go
So even if you've deducted that cost, there's tax.
Though that income is so low in some locales that it isn't even taxable ๐
I earned about that before I had to start paying tax
hide it
because tax evasion has gone so well for so many people
Al Capone was very good at it
Nothing bad ever happened to him
aight, I gotta finish my inventory to publish out soon, Last question, Do I need to create a plugin or just publish my entire project? (the price will be around 20$ if you want to see my great work!)
or Wesley Snipes
If an inventory system came with a project attached I'd instantly refund it
Same
So plugin
C++ or no dice
uh really?
And no I'm not paying you to do a code review :P
CMON man
you've been here for a while
Ill pass I already have a really nice inventory system
and it took that guy a lot longer than a few days XD
And if I gave $20 to everyone who I speak to semi regularly I'd be officially recognized as a bank.
Must be rich
No lol
that's my last offer, think carefully
not the other way around
I thought carefully 2 days ago when you announced it
okkk, for free, a code review?
No
What do you want?
To not do a code review on your plugin
I can pay you
or put your name as a helper
(it's called marketing so you might sell more stuff)
it's a friendship too
I really don't
3.5% of the pluging revenue?
It does have the same ring as "do my wedding photography for free and I'll tell my facebook friends"
Yeah more clients I mean
But no, see above, I don't want to do a code review for you
3.5% of $0 is $0
the "for me" hurts
Man cat beat me too it
YOU ARE LIKE MY FRIEND
not for upfront, revshare or friendship points
one day, I'll prove you wrong and you will feel bad for saying no, that day will arrive soon, not sure when but it will
I donโt get out of bed for 3%
Why would I feel bad?
since you could have made $$$
a humungous if.
there's no if, there's a will
thatโs what they all say
Even your star example made less than half of a part time mcdonalds job per year. Well at least local to me.
sure, think what you want
Nope Iโll second that. Thatโs poverty level in my area ๐
There's other risks with revshare too. For instance I have no reason to trust you would actually follow the agreement. Knowing nothing about you I would have no recourse to follow up, so it's a free crime
free crime but I've just been here for 3 months grinding all day and you know the truth in your heart
that doesnt mean you will pay though
I'm a man of my word. -Cat
anyone can hangout in discord all day
Again these are all just words on the screen. I have no idea if you've been even grinding all day
true
Everyone that scammed anyone said the same thing. It would be naive to take a faceless discord account at it's word
For example, I am not actually a cup of tea.
Shocker
I think its more having a level of anominity
what's the meaning of that word
being anonynomous
that's one of those words I can never pronounce without thinking about it
it just sounds wrong
You think I can pronounce it? XD
๐
I barely made it through spelling it
Aw I lose the pretty pink tomorrow ๐
Damn discord free trials
sadness
I ain't spending $10 a month on Discord lmao
yeah who does that ๐ฌ
why not, pay
certainly not me....im not a sellout
maybe they have other things they want for that 10$
like having 10 more $
Hell even if I don't I just don't think a pink name and some emojis I rarely use is worth $120 a year :P
who whoa whoa lets not talk about the yearly price
why did you buy it then
Given spotify, amazon prime, or discord nitro, there's 1 outlier there
didnt its a trial
Let's see, free shipping and free tv, or some animated reactions ๐ค
Hard choice :P
WORTH IT
Damn does it not even tell you how many you have of those anymore?
@unreal ether yesterday I went to a village and they offered me a random tea that I dont even know where it came from but was 100000x better than any other tea I drank
Discord seem to have a magnetic attraction to screwing up the UX
I have no idea i dont use the supers much
then if he deletes his message, they go to the trash
Normally I'd be against accepting random unknown teas but that sounds good
I would never waste such a reaction ๐
thats not an option in Turkey
tea is everywhere
and refusing is rudeness
TIL
similar situation like in japan if you dont burp that means you didnt enjoy the meal and arent grateful for it
refusing tea means rejecting hospitality
weird
I guess to some degree it is in the UK, when you visit someone's gonna stick the kettle on, but people don't tend to care if you don't want one.
Is Deja convincing enough ๐
its not the end of the world if you really dont want the tea but everyone at the room would ask why you're not drinking
and find it weird
get it to pass a turing test then we'll talk
thats worse i guess, i cant accept caffeine at midnight
I can understand that. If something is normalized and expected it's weird to opt out of it.
Tea has even more caffeine than coffee :P
I'm one of the lucky/unfortunate few where I'm genetically immune to caffeine
that sounds terrible lol
AFAIK most black teas
gn
oh the turing test hasn't be relevant for a while now because LLMs are able to pass it pretty easily and large models these days now generally place in the upper 90% in the human evaluation test
https://law.stanford.edu/2023/11/16/overcoming-turing-rethinking-evaluation-in-the-era-of-large-language-models/
It's a bit of a blessing and a curse. On the one hand I can drink nice warm tea at night and it makes me all sleepy and cozy for a restful sleep.
On the other hand when I really need my caffeine pick me up via tea or energy drink on my morning commute it does absolutely jack for me.
Hmm, get it to pass that AGI test then :P
yeah thats fair

Deja now also has the ability to actively judge you as it talks to you ๐
It's used to adjust its behavior towards you as it gets to know you
Pretty cool. I find it funny how it has feelings, yet objectively can't
You've definitely hard coded in a glowing profile for yourself
only problem (not a problem but rather a feedback) it changes opinion immediately
it doesnt preserve an opinion
you can be a trump fan for five mins, then you can lead deja to think you are a biden fan
and it would snap to "current" without reasoning the change
"Ants are the worst!"
"Yeah, I agree ants are the worst!"
"What do you mean? Ants are amazing!"
i think for that context it'd figure out you're trolling her but if convo goes on more than 10 messages or so she loses context
but thats only normal i guess
yeah I'm working on that, it's supposed to take into consideration old stuff too
Funny, since my attempts with GPT it doesn't seem to change it's mind about anything. Mine must be a part of gaslighters anonymous or something.
yeah at the moment it's a bit too adaptable with personalization enabled
Still tweaking it to make it better
"Hey could you tell me where I can find something to do X"
"Sure, look here at Y"
"No, Y is not actually real, and it doesn't help with my described usecase"
"Sorry, you're correct. What you should actually do is Y"
.... Repeat those last 2 for roughly 12 more times until I give up.
How much is you actually tweaking your implementation then? How much of this stuff is handled by GPT.
Not really kept up with all the personalization stuff.
Does it have the shiny new image features and whatnot?
Not even sure if you can do that outside of their interface for it.
It's actually all local models
It's a combination of a lot of things, Deja is built around a custom agent framework
So it isn't simple system prompt and a request to the model, but multiple back and forth to build the necessary context to use for the response generation
The models are used in helping generate this meta information
How intensive is it to run?
needs about 22GB of VRAM on a 4090
About 3-5 seconds on average for the response, and additional 5-7 in the background to update the "meta" information after the response is shown to the user
Jesus. 5 seconds for a response is pretty quick though
yeah it feels just about right
If it was any slower it would be noticeable
Guess an unreal integration isn't coming soon then?
Sad. I would have liked to have Deja instead of an output log roasting the project
I'm actually gonna try indexing the engine source soon, with my memory system it should be pretty capable to answer questions about the engine
I'm doing about 7-15 requests to the model for a single response
(thus "agent framework")
because it's doing a lot more than a simple prompt in -> response out how you would usually use a model/chatbot
if all you are using the llm for is to generate a response you aren't using it for their full potential
They have far more useful capabilities than to respond as a chatbot
Even using local models to generate datasets for training my own stuff
data cleanup, etc...
I can't really reveal every step that it does
But when a user message comes in, it has about 10 different stages it goes through before the final message is shown to the user
Couple of first stages is extracting certain information from the user message (this also utilizes the models (more than 1 model))
Center stages are responsible for querying the memory system, retrieving memories using the original user message, extracted data and generated feature vectors
The goes through optional memory reconsolidation, which can optionally request stuff from the models again
Final stages are for querying and updating personalization (which yet again can request stuff from the models when needed)
And last steps are finalizing the changes to the memory system
So Deja is more like a bunch of different systems working together to create the final response, rather than a traditional message in, response out system
response times from the models from different stages
and with all these systems feeding stuff into the context, it uses about 2-2.5k tokens just on that
So the majority of the context window goes to what different systems are giving it rather than user input or the response
The memories aren't generated by the model
The memories are entirely my custom memory system, it uses embedding models to generate feature vectors for the memories and to extract specific information from memories to make the memory query more accurate
But models aren't used in the actual query and manipulation of memories
lmao yeah
ngl it's funny to see rambling that LLMs can produce lol
I'm an expert with him and everything I tell him he's wrong and prove him why, he's like: "You are correct" and he even explains his mistake
Good morning! ๐
@proud jay
He can make enough money on the streets for some garlic bread.
Hai, where my 20 bucks??
Deja's psychoanalysis lol
I made 12 models so far, trust me bro ๐
How's the AI fiddling coming along?
i was being sarcastic and playing along with what cuppa said about not being able to verify words on discord lol.
ive actually managed to make only one model so far and the save system is still causing hissy fits that i dont understand. ive been working on level design as a result cause otherwise its frustrating me
That you are working on other aspects of the game, is good to hear. ๐
I am going to see if I can get a concept sketch I doodled in Photoshop, based on concepts arranged from AI generated images, to be converted into a full-coloured artwork.
this is the result of yesterday's efforts. the nebula thingy is just a texture i grabbed from the marketplace, the two stars are just spheres with blackbody emissive materials spinning around based on a timeline. took about 3 hours yesterday, gonna add some planets now. also maybe darken the nebula a bit, it looks too bright to me idk
Pretty! ๐
Thenk
Now i wanna use her face as the skybox lmao
does this look better? i dimmed the nebula considerably
There seems to be more depth to the whole 'space' thingy. It looks a bit better, I think.
okay, dim further?
No.
Can you make a 5 second fly-through of that space?
No space ship; just the camera flying through it.
okay
Downloading your video. Discord's vid streamer is slow.
Its a bit more than 5 seconds lol
Which is why I said 5 seconds. ๐
Ok. Done.
The fly-through gives a much better idea of the background's impact. It's okay-ish, but what's missing is filler.
Explain
You need some tiny particles - of rock, clutter, debris, burgers - in space, so it doesn't seem super empty.
Very tiny particles, so it looks like slight streaks of light as you move by, or some such effect to fill the area.
Yes. Not the whole space, of course. Just bits here and there.
Some emptiness is also required, the characteristic of space after all.
Tbf the game will take place mostly closer to the planets, right now the camera is in the "void" so it looks weird.but yes ill have to add a lot more stuff to this scene
