Sculpting isn’t something that blender does objectively worse.
cursive crypt
Worse than?
frosty halo
Z
carmine frigate
its better at sculpting than any other free 3d software i tried 😛
cursive crypt
Use what you are comfortable with 🤷♂️
carmine frigate
never tried z or mudbox or anything tho
frosty halo
Flipped normals basically said that most pros including them mostly use less than ten brushes for sculpting. All the ones they listed are in blender. So same tools really - if you fail sculpting in blender chances are you won’t be better in Z
Tools in the hands of skilled people don’t matter as much as subject matter knowledge.
cursive crypt
True as long as the tool allows you do something easier & faster. A good art can be done in whatever.
frosty halo
What blender lacks is probably convenience.
carmine frigate
i can sculpt a lil
frosty halo
Z has had much more time to build up convenience functions
Blender is playing catch up.
But if you look at ArtStation - artists who do both blender and Z sculpts have works that make it impossible to tell what they used unless you’re told.
cursive crypt
Well, I'm not knowing both app to compare them objectively. A fact is tho, that Z is dedicated since many years and has a lot of expertise put in and used about. Blender I think is still far from there, but apparently is improving.
fresh heath
Blender has inferior performance in Sculpt Mode compared to ZBrush, but Pablo Dobarro is fixing this
frosty halo
Yeah Z does have that really optimised
carmine frigate
on a decent pc thats 2mil trist +
frosty halo
Unless you use the dynotopo thing constantly on, it basically never slows from what I saw.
The again I dunno what rigs those people had.
carmine frigate
can prolly do 5 mil depending on zoom level and brush size and stuff
frosty halo
If they leveraged GPU in blender sculpting - they win.
Well.. win in general. Not against anyone.
I dunno, I personally feel like if the end result is the same - what you use doesn’t matter.
carmine frigate
i think the whole edit /sculpt/animation/texture mode setup is really nice
its all there, sometimes can get confusing cus hotkey change with mode aswell
and everytime i try the latest version it feels everyting got a complete overhaul 😛
if you want to sculpt retopo, texture , animate and export a character you wont need like 95% of blender stuff 😛
frosty halo
True. But it’s the fact that it’s so versatile that makes it so nice.
carmine frigate
i rate the texture paint tool in blender lower than paint btw 😛
carmine frigate
i linked blender to krita years ago and new versions still use that setting
cursive crypt
Maybe for editing textures? I linked gimp.
carmine frigate
just download krita and put the exe as blender external image software
carmine frigate
just save and reload in blender

I've thought about building something like that too
you could probably just get some off the shelf microprocessor and other chipsets for it... obviously it's not quite as straightforward as just that but yeah :p
mossy nexus
It's just a breadboard and some chips, wires and a bit of soldering
fathom wadi
Funny thing is, back in the day this was standard. There used to be a substantial market for DIY computers until the "console based home computer" was created to mass market gaming machines. Convenience took over.

I kinda wanna design my own CPU
I know the theory of how they function
but that's about it
:D
fathom wadi
It's nice to deal with binary things that are logic gates. Often there is solace in that when you can't stand the illogical stuff you see in the world. Probably why I do logic flow in programming as my zen thing.
Although I've found a lot more comfort in creating with Blender recently. Having the peace and quiet to just trip out into some artwork, seeing the imagination come to life at a pace that doesn't have to feel rushed (because Im not getting paid for it) is often a beautiful waste of time 😄
foggy path
I have a "game" on steam which can do some of that sorta logic gate stuff, it's pretty interesting for figuring out that sorta logic stuff
fathom wadi
I never went out of my way to learn all that because I grew up with the Atari and Sinclair Spectrum. But when I got to college I took up a class in radio technologies which included all the core concepts to schematic reading and so on. I paid attention 100% of the time and soaked up what I could. It ended up being more interesting than I gave it credit for. If I were born 10 years earlier I guess it would have been my thing. Mail ordering pcbs and tripping out with a soldering iron
fringe sundial
if you want to build a CPU in a simplified way, there is a "game" on steam called MHRD where you build a cpu from logic gates
the game is built as a puzzle, you program each piece of the cpu in a very simplified HDL language where you essentially "connect the wires"
it will only take a few hours to finish, and it builds a real, working, 4 bit cpu

I'm trying to put a massive heatsink on my NVMe drive...
fathom wadi
I already have a gpu where mine should be and there is no room for it. SSD does the trick though. It's like NVMe with a pre-built heatsink and easy to fit somewhere other than under my red hot GPU
north torrent
My motherboard has two NVMe slots. The one on the front is PCIe 4.0. I heard those can get hot if you don't have a good heatsink and airflow.
fathom wadi
yep exactly why I dont have one until I get a mobo where it's moved to a place I can use a heatsink
north torrent
But my motherboard also has a heat pipe going from the front NVMe slot to another heatsink on the motherboard.
fresh heath
Here's a fun way to build a CPU online: http://nandgame.com
north torrent
The NVMe sits there, and that heat pipe runs to another heatsink block thing on the left.
Then you put another heatsink block on top of that black heatsink.
But I am trying to take out the black heatsink and instead use this.
Which is basically just a solid block of copper around my NVMe.
Then that heatsink block goes down on top of that. I am going to put thermal paste in between the two to make sure the heat transfer happens. I am also putting thermal pads in between the NVMe and that heat pipe.
frosty halo
maybe everyone can be bill gates
@zinc matrix Theoretically, the majority of people could. But human nature gets in the way.
Which is basically just a solid block of copper around my NVMe.
@north torrent For 99% of people this won't matter. Also NVMe's don't get hot enough with standard heat spreading interfaces to the point it becomes problematic. They just don't output that sort of heat.
Unless you're like me and you hate temps above 30c when ambient.. then you spend your life min/max'ing the rig.

@north torrent @frosty halo SSDs perform better when they are warm/hot if it does not go over 85°c you fine. You do not need to cool them.
But i doubt they get over 50°C
I have a prebuilt computer with intel UHD 630 graphics and I'm looking to buy a graphics card. I have 16 gb of RAM and an i7 9th gen processer. I am not very good with computers so can someone recommend me a good card that would be around 150-250 dollar
@zinc matrix Do you need it right now?
nah im planning to buy it around black friday or for christmas
It is a unfortunate time to buy a Card now. Do you need it this year?^^
For what do you need it?
Are you a Beginner in 3D?
yes
also I am interested in tensorflow
why is it an unfortunate time
Is that running on a GPU?
tensorflow is a lot faster running on gpu
And i see you need a Nvidia Chip card
becasue of CUDA
yea
I do not know where you live and where you buy it, becasue here the prices are different you should check in your price range what you can get and post it here and i can help you further.
It is unfortunate becasue Nvidia is rolling out there new GPUs that are much faster and cheaper
frosty halo
@north torrent @frosty halo SSDs perform better when they are warm/hot if it does not go over 85°c you fine. You do not need to cool them.
@zinc matrix basically. Yeah. I’m just mad about airflow and temps. My CPU and GPU are totally fine to idle at 35-40c but I have them sitting on 24c when idle just cause I like temps as low as possible
I’m not that bothered by drives or ram.
If my main components are cool enough, secondary ones will be too.

Is it really made in engine? Cause the layout keeps breaking for me. If I resize the launcher, hovering over button X actually highlights button Y next to X. It’s annoying af. I wouldn’t thought that’s something that shouldn’t happen if it was rendered in-engine.

You're playing a game like mario-kart and there is that "ink effect" that covers up your screen and makes it hard to see. Now, with human players, you don't really need to do much.

I can't speak for iOS because I've been on the IHateApple team way before Epic got on the wagon but unless outdated hardware or drivers are in question, I honestly think it should be fine on either chip

gouda cheese idk what that is
Truffle flavor sauce things
What about calories?
@cursive crypt nope, just these things for people that can't eat some elements
these allergic or whatever

anyway I usually go Burger King over Mc Donalds
still no one of two put me on the table a nice looking burger like these

Sometimes I wish I had food delivery service available around.
median wraith
I think this ones have, but when worked near home in the office the fridays we order food but you rather order from other place
and still the burger were super expensive for what it had
I paid once 15€ for a burger with less things than the one in that image
no drink no more just the burger

I like Burger King too but they are a little too "much"

@cursive crypt the ones white wet from bottle

so you don't really know what the hell they do

median wraith
but yeah... no far in the time like 10 years ago the common were to go the main market of the city and buy fresh fish
never frozen etc
when the worm and that wasn't a common
ancient hornet
well the fish you bought was meant to be cooked anyway 😛
which should solve the problem as well as freezing no?
median wraith
yeah but usually depend of how you cook it don't reach x temps or whatever at some spots
is better to freeze
must be like 2 days min in a common house freezer
from what they said
you got the other worm too from meal
XD
in that case isn't much you can do I bet other than cook well the whole meat all sides

@fluid bloom apple can emulate x86 code on those arms
ancient hornet
I just don't want Apple in that position even if those new CPUs are very tasty 😄
lucid walrus
An Apple engineer posted on Twitter that I think some sort of NSObject reference counting took 60 nanoseconds on Intel, 5 on the M1, and x86 emulated on M1 took 14...
fluid bloom
@fringe sundial so are those comparisons all targetting x86 architecture?
like the webkit compile time is compiling for x86 target?
in all cases?
lucid walrus
but M1 is highly optimized for Apple stuff... doubt it will be as fast if Microsoft managed to port Windows onto it
fringe sundial
@fluid bloom webkit is being compiled most likely for arm. But its compiled with an arm-compiled compiler
fluid bloom
if it's arm for some and x86 for some then they really aren't that comparable, no?
fringe sundial
it is
because the inmense mayority of the compile time actually isnt the instruction output
compiling for x86 and arm takes basically the same amount of time
they are running LLVM
this has a few layers
fluid bloom
yeah, ir and then machine code generation
fringe sundial
Clang (cpp compiler) (huge amount of time spent here couse Cpp is retarded) -> C AST -> LLVM IR -> LLVM optimizations (most time spent here) -> instruction output
instruction output goes at very high speed
fluid bloom
but LLVM optimization also probably has to consider what sort of instructions are available on the architecture?
fringe sundial
not for like 90% of them
fluid bloom
I see
fringe sundial
inmense mayority of LLVM passes run on LLVM IR
and dont really care that much about the arch
tho there are some tweaks
what is arch specific is register naming and instruction output
register allocation can be slow couse its a unsolvable algorithm
but in this case.... arm has more registers than x86 has
so its easier on arm lol
but even then, its really not that big of a % of the total compile time
specially when we are talking about Cpp programs
fluid bloom
I'm getting PTSD flashbacks from uni's computer architecture course
fringe sundial
in Cpp programs most of the time is spent on Cpp fuckery
lucid walrus
ah, wasn't an apple engineer... but still
fringe sundial
the problem in Cpp is the untold amounts of repeated work
every header gets reprocessed and reprocessed and reprocessed...
its stupid beyond any measure
fluid bloom
well it does have its benefits when you have a ridiculous core count in your CPU 😛
cursive crypt
reprocessed each time? 🤔
fringe sundial
its still beyond early, but you can start to tinker with it
do you know what i found?
a 100x compile time boost
fluid bloom
oh, nice
fringe sundial
because you can do "import vector"
and then, instead of copypasting the vector header into your cpp file and compiling everything
it just loads the precompiled data for that header
so its instant
fluid bloom
I maybe didn't remember the article correct...
it could've been about compilation speed increase vs. core count
fringe sundial
the article was utter bullshit
ancient hornet
C++ compilation can take a LOT of times when you look at your template code an notice it's O(n^3) in the number of types it needs to create for your tuple like type 😄
fluid bloom
where a header system enjoyed a more linear increase in speed
fringe sundial
its bullshit
fringe sundial
still absolute bullshit. I know what article you are talking about
the issue is that it was using autogenerated projects
fluid bloom
oh, good. I wasn't dreaming then 😄
fringe sundial
that were, of sorts, pathological projects
real projects dont have such an absolutely retarded header dependency graph
the big issue with modules is really architectural
you need to rearchitect your program
as an example
fluid bloom
I wonder if 
uses cpp modules or not 🤔
fringe sundial
circular dependencies are banned
and you cant forward declare
this is... a pain
i dont know how the fuck to architect projects with modules just yet
i was trying to port a project i have to modules and was suffering significantly
but where modules excel
is in single-file-libraries type stuff
in there its just amazing
for your actual app they are such a goddamn pain. But if you can split your app into standalone-ish small libs, modules will help you a lot
cursive crypt
Is that 20 out? 🤔 Haven't played with it.

The CPU cores don't take the majority of space on the M1 chip, more than a half of it goes to the GPU and other stuff, and then there is the Firestorm/Icestorm setup to reduce power consumption

nested types

Then again it’s probably on par with pythons errors
If you don’t implement your shit with proper error handling - 80-90% of your time is gonna be scrolling through a monumental trace back stack looking for something.
ancient hornet
it's a chain of function calls each returning a new type nested from the parent
frosty halo
Like I get that, I just mean it reads like shit
Comparable with the above. Etc etc.
If that chain was intentional - it wasn’t done well.
In fact why would you need this many chained calls to begin with? There’s plenty of other ways to handle passing data from one function to another through traits or otherwise.
ancient hornet
it's LINQ like stuff I guess
hmm, the M1 chip seems somewhat on par with a Ryzen 7 4800U
fluid bloom
@shut bloom I think some recent nightly compiler change reduces the nesting a bit
can't really remember which version, maybe try compiling with latest nightly?

The RT will be worse than nvidia if the non-RT is the same
Someone ran a benchmark between 6800XT and 3080 (I believe) and got 470 vs 620 fps respectively or something like that

It's gonna be better than RTX on Pascal/non-RTX Turing tho, 100%

it is a raytraced solution
nanite does the streaming tech
I'm sure it's DXR based

Lumen does not require hardware accelerated ray tracing like RTX
dense atlas
like basically I'm all geared up to port to UE5 before I release with GI
but it is accelerated with it, right?
I can't imagine they'd just not bother using the hardware
mint onyx
no
it may have optional HW acceleration
but, like how Nanite doesn't require mesh shaders
broken sigil
Lumen is combination of Screen space GI, distance field GI and can't remember what the 3d one for up close was

It makes it feel unnatural
The player already had their action of pressing the mouse button, any delay starts feeling awkward
Even if it fits your game design
And if you do release with a delay and then argument yourself as for why, there will be a group that relentlessly tells you to remove it

I’m trying to make the game as realistic as possible. Any gun firing from an open bolt needs time for the bolt to fully close, which is usually a fraction of a second
