it's ironic how big the engines are now, and technically are supposed to make all the workflow faster but make a lot of tools more needed that you need to develop for, so the process still as tedious

Tbh I still keep with the back in the day tools for many elements, except animations that was and are a nightmare to me this days

#

and HUDs

#

that's something UE4 did really step forward

the development of the fooking UIs

cursive crypt

UE stepped forward for HUD? ๐Ÿค”

#

Isnt it still slate, etc?

median wraith

well when we all came from UDK and alike engines where the HUD must be made by programmers technically

cursive crypt
#

ah, oh, udk...

yeah it was a step forward to be like the Windows designer etc

seems like the upscaler is fucked

#

The DLSS is so shit if it allows that then

median wraith
#

but this is a remake a remaster or a new game

#

it's me or some of this games looks inconsistent

#

like when BF1 was released and the next one looked worst

#

and here the remaster looked better?

#

oh no the distance fields

this don't seems to be using lumen

median wraith

is the way it worst the DFAO it drops shadows on the whole cage

#

so make that aura

median wraith
#

turns out is using lumen

#

here is a dude playing at max quality looks better but yeah

cursive crypt
#

lumen uses these lighting voxels irc

median wraith
#

lumen is basically DFs

#

with probes

celest musk
#

oO

#

isn't it also using cards?

median wraith
#

hardware one is a different thing

#

cards are with Nanite or so

celest musk
#

but nanite stuff also has DF

median wraith
#

Software Ray Tracing uses Mesh Distance Fields to operate on the widest range of hardware and platforms but is limited in the types of geometry, materials, and workflows it can effectively use.

Hardware Ray Tracing supports a larger range of geometry types for high quality by tracing against triangles and to evaluate lighting at the ray hit instead of the lower quality Surface Cache. It requires supported video cards and systems to operate.

celest musk
#

Lumen generates an automatic parameterization of the nearby scene's surface called the Surface Cache. It is used to quickly look up lighting at ray hit points in the scene. Lumen captures the material properties for each mesh from multiple angles. These capture positions (called Cards) are generated offline for each mesh.
so what are these for then?

#

quick cull checks before tracing against the DF?

median wraith
#

surface cache only works with Hardware version I think

#

no, I'm wrong I think

celest musk
#

oh

#

the cards are where the light is projected on?!

median wraith
#

yeah

#

the calculation is done with DF

#

in the other one the calculation is directly done in the model itself on the lower quality version

Bangladesh is going down fast.

Only 2 more batters, only 3.4 more overs remaining, and 57 runs to score.

Damn, dropped the ball!

India needs to work on its fielding.

Well, Hevedy is a roaring, animal-transforming, hand-to-claw shapeshifting druid.

He does get animals, though.

Hevedus can't mount his triceratops.... yet.

my entire family made fun of me for the sleeve btw ๐Ÿคฃ

but it does legit help

celest musk

good, so it doesn't run in the family... interesting noted

summer cedar
#

The sleeve most certainly helps people with high APM and rapid mouse movements, aka esports players.

#

Chafing, bruising, muscle twisting/knotting - these are all legitimate issues when your arm is hammering the table or rubbing against it like a firestarter.

#

The best thing I ever did for myself was buy arm rests and a mouse pad with a memory foam wrist rest.

Let me tell you, folks, this is the biggest discount youโ€™ve ever seen. People are calling me, theyโ€™re saying, โ€œSir, nobodyโ€™s ever given a deal like this.โ€ And itโ€™s trueโ€”nobody has. Weโ€™re not talking about 5%, weโ€™re not talking about 10%. Weโ€™re talking huge, tremendous savings. Some say itโ€™s unbelievable, I say itโ€™s the art of the deal. When you walk away, youโ€™ll say, โ€œWow, I just saved so much money, it feels like I made money.โ€ Nobody does discounts like thisโ€”believe me.

median wraith
#

yeah but getting those individually

#

cost the same of the big discount

#

as are 50% off

#

and the discount pack in includes this

#

but not all the ones I list

#

plus includes there a tutorial and a SFX pack

that's why cost the same

forcing others to use the EU ID VAT

well, they and Unity now etc

Good. So, Spanish IT authorities will take action against Epic?

pearl elk
#

I swear most companies online I pay GST to dont actually hand that money to the government

#

why would you if youre in a foreign country and its voluntary

summer cedar
#

They don't necessarily have to. There are treaties and discounts given, plus reverse charges, and refunds.

#

GST is some of the most convoluted taxes I've seen.

#

And India succeeded in making it MOAR convoluted, until recently.

pearl elk

cut the red tape by adding green, yellow, purple and orange tape

summer cedar

we just tacked on more red tape at different angles.

Less work, more convolution.

I mean legally isn't bad per se

Did you tell them that making Epic take a proper ID will allow Spain to make more money off of them?

but this other european one don't affect spain but all european members

pearl elk
#

this is what happens when banking empires run the world

median wraith

well in this case more like big corps

I was about ask the same XD

summer cedar
#

Its a CRPG based on D&D, but with Pathfinder ruleset.

#

Basically, Hevidus is a Primal Druid, so he can transform into different creatures, according to his level permit.

#

Previously, he was a weakling goblin-murderer.

#

Now, Hevedy has become a leopard at a higher level. He can transform into elemental spirits (small) too, but those only get one attack plus elemental boosts.

Hevopard gets two claw attacks and one bite.

I guess you're just an unlucky hawk.

#

While I love the Pathfinder games, I can totally see why some people loathe the ruleset.

#

The entire game essentially balances around armour class and casting difficulty.

#

So, even though it has over 30 classes (including sub-classes) you can experiment with, the sub-stream, specialised, interesting classes just don't function.

Hello guys! I have maybe a little bit weird question. Does anyone knows any company that are making video backgrounds for concerts or festivals? My dream is to make visuals for concerts of bands, DJs, singers, etc. But I don't know where to address. ๐Ÿคท

Sphere traces don't work technically like that

#

You get all the actors in area, could be overlap

#

And then you do what ponkkis says

#

AAA does that

#

You usually trace from 2 points

#

Explosiรณn origin

#

And alt position just in case it's under floor

#

Problem with sphere trace is isn't a sphere trace as you think

#

It's a fooking capsule alike moving

#

So it depends of many elements

A dude uploads a ripoff from Sims 4 at Sketchfab

#

and the admins from Sketchfab give he a Staff Pick award

#

Tbh this is a pain in the ass

#

you see this content and you cannot report it to Epic

#

because they say only the owner can

#

for long

#

did you see it integrated in FAB?

#

also they removed all the sketchfab content and now is sold at FAB lol

#

they own Sketchfab // Arstation and Bandcamp until a year ago, they sold that last one

#

there you go

#

I replied the mod giving the staff pick stuff

#

idk what else I can do

#

I mean is a ripoff you can tell

steel summit

selling it too no doubt

median wraith
#

well gives it away for free under CC-BY

oh but still its not theirs to give away

median wraith

I know lol

but cannot report it

only EA can report it

Imagine making a game using CC licensed assets just to have some AAA studio come knocking on your door

#

there is a dude selling COD WAW weapons

#

got reported by 10 of us

#

Epic said cannot do anything if isn't a report from Activision

#

and other one selling BF3 weapons etc

steel summit
#

Maybe its better to let some indie dev make a hit using stolen assets then turn around and sue them for easy $$$ later on instead of having to always be on the lookout for your stolen work and report it.

median wraith
#

well Epic EULA claims

#

they wash their hands

steel summit
#

what do you mean?

median wraith
#

they cannot be affected

#

they don't give any warranty

steel summit
#

they dont give the rights to use the assets but if someone steals them and uses in their own game and it becomes a viral hit its easy to sue them and make a quick buck

heh I find this whole tylenol tripe amusing. I recently got a qualification in understanding autism. Day 1 explained how it was first diagnosed (Leo Kanner) and it was years before tylenol was invented. That was the first thing that rang out loud to me. But lets say contributing factors from pregnancy are a thing (and not genetics or it being part of the system of complex brain requirements and the uncountable variables of producing complex life) then somewhere, in any of the thousands of studies since, including the variants such as Asperger's or High Functioning Autism, you would think the most common painkiller on earth would have been in one of them considering. It's all gibberish for some agenda with no science behind it. Amazingly redundant thinking really.

For the first time since 2010 I've missed an entire release of Unreal Engine. Had burnout since February this year, so I missed out on 5.6 entirely doing other things. Makes me feel so insecure about myself now. I'm supposed to be a pro ยฌ_ยฌ

I can do when I get paid and have a purpose. When I'm doing 100+ hour weeks solo devving for no pay with 5 hours sleep a night, I burnout. But I'm trying to get my frame of mind back into things. Tempted to do the epic megajm but I don't want to put too much short-time pressure on my brain. I might just pick up where I left off and finish my plugin. It was almost done anyway

I've finally managed to run 5.7 but I can do that only by opening a converted project. It crashes as soon as tries to open the editor if I launch it directly from the launcher. It crashes also if I try to open or create another project while being in the editor. Is it just me or is it a common problem others are having with this Preview!??

unkempt hedge

#

It was just freshly installed so... I dunno if the long pause the installation went through at some point {at 80-85%} is involved. It wasn't giving any sign of life for several minutes.

fathom wadi
#

that could be decompressing files or compiling shaders. Depends which part of installation. You can usually tell if you check your task manager and see a load of shaderworker exes running a percentage of the cpu

#

Im not sure about the process of installation with a binary though as I only use source builds. Seems likely to be shaders tho with pauses.

unkempt hedge
#

During installation!? Or you mean when I was launching the editor?

#

Might be both as well, I guess.

#

I don't mind much anyway, at this point. I can run it someway and that's all that matters. I know all things are gonna get fixed when it goes official. I was just scared I was gonna be forced to get stuck on 5.6

Whats wrong with 5.6 tho?

Nothing. It does work great indeed for me, I just keep myself always up to date specially when there are new features I really was looking forwards to having and experiment with.

Besides, I started using computers and software in late 90s - early 00s and since then I've learned what is now a golden rule for me... "never put yourself in the situation in which the gap between the old thing and the new thing gets so big you start falling too far behind!" I believe this rule is even more relevant in gaming development when the learning curve becomes a rubber-band and new things to learn become overwhelming and that rubber-band snaps.

Im still so impressed by chatgpt image gen, it just knows what youre asking for with such a basic prompt

white oxide
#

yeah

#

gemini does a pretty good job too

#

also video

pearl elk
#

Ive tried a few of the others but I typically get a decent response from chatgpt, only issue I has when it starts chasing its own tail and you have to prompt slap it out of it ๐Ÿ˜›

white oxide
#

yeah

pearl elk
#

I do use gemini if thats the one google has embedded in the search

white oxide
#

yeah

#

i pay for the google Ai pro, (mostly for the 2TB) and it takes tens of thousands of words done across weeks to start loosing its mind

#

like one of my pinned chats is my entire body of lore and its just started to have issues after like 500k words of effort

pearl elk
#

yeah mine starts to go alittle around in circles when I cross reference different projects but for the most part it knows what Im on about

#

I have a development tool which multiple game projects will be using so I tend to jump topics and it can get confused

median wraith
#

How the hell find out my user name here now to let a friend send me a request?

white oxide
#

i do like how gemini can be forced to remember a handful of things across chats

pearl elk
#

I dont blame the AI tbh because most humans cant keep up either ๐Ÿ˜น

white oxide
#

like the specific terminology in my setting

#

instead of tablet its "slate" and such

#

so it always get that right across all settings

pearl elk
#

yeah I have to give mine more of a nudge away from typescript, it loves that and its always trying to use tailwind css

white oxide
#

lol

#

also i love how people equate my Ai assisted writting to those morons who prompt a whole book from a paragraph

#

and then cut and paste into wattpad or KDP to try and pilfer money

pearl elk
#

Ive heard theres a way to get chatgpt to revise its own work so Im going to give that a go over the weekend, basically like a first draft then revision

white oxide
#

yeah gemini has "canvas mode" where it basically has a word doc and you can highlight sections of its effort and tell it to change or to confirm thats correct

#

not a single word gets through my process that i dont approve, and ill agonize for several hours over each 2-4k word chapter

pearl elk
#

if anyone asks why I use AI I'll just say Im heavily inspired by Asimov ๐Ÿ˜›

white oxide
#

lol

#

I use it because im largely a worldbuilder, who cant do prose for shit, but can plan the story at a more granular level

#

like per chapter and such

#

and i overflow the prompt cause Ai is a tool and the more data in a prompt the more accurate it is right?

pearl elk
#

what Im finding with my experience is my AI mimics me, my cadences, my patterns and even my vocabulary. It does come up with things outside of that if I ask specifically for it but typically its trying to be my friend so it uses mimicry to be relatable

white oxide
#

yeah

#

i like that too

#

i can also tell it to go into detail like a few of the authors i follow

#

i mean we all like our general creators

#

you with azimov and me with weber and flint

#

Ive always mostly enjoyed their style of descriptions for items and people

#

and ill have 4-8 page psych profiles made for each of my characters and then 8-15 page xenobiological profiles for each faction including humans

pearl elk
#

yeah its good how you can give it a list of inspiration, it really helps narrow down the tone. Ive done that with multiple projects and it always keeps those in mind when it generates

#

I say mind but who knows ๐Ÿ˜›

white oxide
#

lol yeah

#

but i love the pathological hate it gets

#

like the EXACT SAME words used to hate on it were the exact same used against word processors in the 80's

pearl elk
#

yeah I saw alot of the same things about electronic music or art back in the day or computer games

white oxide
#

give it 2-3 years and only the morons will be still against it wholesale

pearl elk
#

Wordperfect was so crap lol

white oxide
#

i was in this writing server that was so pathologically anti-ai i could have written a pulitzer winning article about it

#

and their thing was "all ai writes in a specific way so its easy to tell"

#

and they were praising my work, well the handful that weren't grossed out by the fact guns and blood exists in my setting

pearl elk
#

I was so ahead of the curve my teachers thought I might be cheating simply because I was using computer printouts in primary school ๐Ÿ˜›

white oxide
#

lol

pearl elk
#

then came the bubble and inkjets and everyone was printing everything

white oxide
#

my teachers got me a word processor in elementry to help

pearl elk
#

youre obviously not one of these hipster writers who needs a typewriter from the 1890s to write ๐Ÿ˜›

white oxide
#

oh fck no

#

if it doesnt have CPU and a RAM chip im not writing on it

pearl elk
#

I hated the hammer style, it was far too slow for me then I got shown the ball typewriter and I loved how responsive it was but PCs after that was a no brainer

#

not much point buying a ball typewriter when a PC wasnt much more money

white oxide

#

the schools gave us like 10, and then when i got to 6th and was about to move to middle school they simply gave me the rest as they were getting upgraded to 11 inch windows xp laptops

#

then in middle school i got like 20 of those cause id keep "loosing" them

#

ended up i was just jailbreaking them cause the school got macs

#

so they didnt care about the 8 year old laptops i always had

pearl elk
