It's super strange to see how relevant was UE once started and how every content became banal
But isn't only UE
celest musk
what do you mean by content?
median wraith
Videos, resources, created games, even the one by Epic. This used to be a show and when you did something on forums and Reddit or social media use to get lots of likes and exposure.
Now there people making a tutorial each 5min and games releasing everywhere, even the Epic videos are half ignored
Problem is you spend the same effort
celest musk
yea, i guess the bar for standing out and getting attention got raised
is that bad tho?
median wraith
It's like going for gold to the mountains
at this point there is only bits of dust
and you better sell machinery
when the market is filled it lost the value
Not because you product is worst or didn't take the same time

It's always been about who you know, if you want to succeed though.

Okay. But poor people have another opportunity opening up soon.
Asteroid mining, planet pioneering, radiation testing, etc.
They'll get lots of hazard pay.
Honestly, one of the reasons rural America lost a lot of income was because mining shut down and jobs moved to cities.
Same with factories moving out.
I guess it is/was the same in most nations (will be too).

Yes, I would like to play a game with some reason/purpose in mind.
It doesn't have to be complex.
The world has gone to hell and there's a zombie outbreak is also fine.

some for sure
but most not I think
except for the first job maybe
but I don't have a masters and no one ever asked
median wraith
I got fired on the interviews here once I didn't had a major degree etc, long ago on my starting steps
median wraith
but I don't have a masters and no one ever asked
but you got a sciece degree or something or software one, don't you ?
the one I got related is lower tier
proud jay
I have a degree in Digital Arts & Entertainment, major in game development lol
idk if that counts as science degree
median wraith
well I didn't expect that
Na the ones I got are computers // servers // hosting // web // java related
but aren't unisersity degrees per se
it's like "Higher Level Vocational Qualification"
idk hows called there
proud jay
is that like an extra year after high school or some shit?
median wraith
4 years
it's like high school then you can do the first one that are 2 years for the job you choose
then you can do the Post-Compulsory Secondary Education 2 years
and then the high one is pre university degress another 2 years (you don't need this to do degrees, it's like a pre degree thing to get a job directly)
most of the people this days have those for common jobs
most of the programmers I know etc
so I have both
after high school you can go to Post-Compulsory Secondary Education and then the degree you want
or you can do those 3 without a degree
summer cedar
You can get fully-recognised degrees online, now.
I completed my Masters that way.
It's quite flexible too.
median wraith
idk, on my case my exp with the educative system was real bad
summer cedar
Yes, but you can explore the systems outside Spain too.
For example, Indira Gandhi National Open University allows international students to enrol too.
There's also the People's University in New York City.
median wraith
in one of those I did pass the second year interconnected online Java apps Subjects (had todo network based software with realtime chats etc)
but I didn't pass the "how to code" subjects because I didnt had time
the teachers didn't care or give a shit
like HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE
summer cedar
Well, if I remember correctly, you can do a Masters in Computer Applications from Manipal University entirely online.
You also get 5 years (3-year course) to finish the whole thing.
So, you can do your assignments with ample time available.
That's a slightly costlier course. IGNOU (the university I mentioned earlier) has a cheaper alternative - same time flexibility.
median wraith
yeah but those requiere all the time don't ?
summer cedar
yeah but those requiere all the time don't ?
No silly. Didn't I say online education?
It's fully distance.
summer cedar
No, zero expectations in India.
median wraith

summer cedar
You just have to submit the assignments for the semester BEFORE you take the exam.
That's it.
You can decide when to submit them and when to take the exam too.
summer cedar
Well, yes, depending on the university, you have to attend the exam at the exam centre but only once per course.
BUT, Manipal University's is entirely online.

For people with serious skills, it's the reverse.
They negotiate with the companies and job-hop every week or even faster.

There're always going to be companies AND individuals who have no idea what they are doing.

megalights is SUPPOSED to boost dynamic light fps.
It MIGHT help.
Otherwise you're just hungry and lowering your own FPS.

two lights will obviously require at least a 5090.
three lights need 7090; so postpone that for 2030.

@median wraith I just read something interesting. When you compress a 200MB 4k texture to ASTC, the size is around 8MB according to Reddit dude.
If that's the case, why is a game client size 70GB?
Are there just that many ASTC textures?
summer cedar
No, mips are apparently not included in astc.

Eat one, bet it tastes worse than a clean ass
summer cedar
Android can ONLY use ASTC, but the format itself is for Vulkan and OpenGL.
summer cedar
Oh, the audio files are massive, along with the cutscenes, world levels, etc. That's why the client sizes are big, even if you use ASTC for the textures.
Fun stuff.
--- Duplicate and unoptimized files: Developers may include duplicate or unoptimized asset files to reduce loading times or due to strict development timelines. With cheap storage and fast internet, aggressive optimization is often a lower priority. ---
Lol.
--- Live service content: Games like Fortnite and Call of Duty: Warzone frequently receive updates with new maps, characters, cosmetics, and weapons, causing the game's file size to grow indefinitely. ---
At least Path of Exile's GGG is nice enough to include a pack checker. Saves you 10s of GB after updates.
This is all very interesting. Gives me ideas I want to try in my level building and stuff.
But first, 😴

One last thing.
I found this great guide to measuring texel density.
For whomsoever it proves useful. 😄
median wraith
I mean yeah you can compress a 200MB texture to 8MB fine, but I don't think that texture is RGBA
summer cedar
Fair. And I guess every texture will have varying sizes. But, my question was more general. If it ain't 200MB per tex and more like 10-20-50MB, then 70GB becomes kinda weird.
But, as Gemini told me, there's audio, video, levels, etc. etc.
median wraith
Let me give you real numbers

doesn't unreal even have a view mode for that? (at least it got something like that for lightmaps)
summer cedar
nobody uses 8k
who said 8k?
median wraith
this morning or so you said "even 8k..."
summer cedar
?
median wraith
summer cedar
The compressed size of the ATSC file is 8MB.
celest musk
i've seen 8k textures in UE tho
i think even in some epic materials (twinmotion stuff)
median wraith
yeah 8k is the UE limit
but nobody uses it on games at all
aside from some specific
celest musk
you wish 😛
summer cedar
Lol. I just meant that as a joke about Gears of War.
median wraith
BACK TO THE TOPIC!
Albedo 22mb
Normal Map 22mb
AORM or AORD another 20mb
all 4k
that's compressed

Not sure. I have never measured texel density.
median wraith
that's compressed
so by end of the day each material is almost 70mb
celest musk
by which math? nvm
median wraith
a normal small map can have easy 200 lightmaps in case they use baked light 1024 each
celest musk
that's for a unoptimized material tho
often you get away with way lower resolutions for ORM/Normal
median wraith
~~by which math?~~ nvm
ZpanisZ math
actually usually is the reserve or at least I did on my productions and clients
normal maps and ORM get bigger res than albedo
as you see more the details
banned from here
celest musk
that really depends on the material i guess
median wraith
it depends for sure
celest musk
i've never had albedo on lower res than ORM/Normal
median wraith
I did almost on every project I worked
or another solution is to have a micro texture normal
I mean in a need case sure, ORM goes first out
celest musk
1/3 shows how realistic that recommendation is 😄
median wraith
COD2 could surprise you
about why the textures looks wrong but the normals better than many games still today
by groups
and by platform
UE is awesome for that
median wraith
groups per profile per platform
median wraith
or directly in the texture
never!
celest musk
for me always!
you can do like a global 4k limit and in the textures you can do per material
i don't need 4k for a thing which never occupies 1/4 of the screen
median wraith
i don't need 4k for a thing which never occupies 1/4 of the screen
that's right

I have an actual question always there, you are dev at Bendy games ?
I like those

no
