It's a misunderstanding on power regulation rule, and practical on other home electric appliances.
Simply put, the US is regulating yearly power consumption, and it just so happened that few Alienware AIOs haven't passed the test, and MSM deep fried it so hard
Well...
the smaller your device more regulated it is
Didn't know that
I saw jaytwocents video about it and didnt find thing from california site
I'd make a comment about the quality of the US power grid, but my area almost had brownouts during that heat wave recently
Mutahar did find about the Californian regulation article
Alienware have one setup as certified even other systems have same setups
But you can't dig straight down

Anyone else a beginner intimidated by the UE4 learning curve?
Not me, even back then in 2016 :3
You musta been brave
Oh lemme guess
You had past coding experience, didn't you?
Well, yes 
Though granted I never actually code in personal capacity, at least finished one. I do have modding background, and dipped my toes into C++ and a bit of Python before Unreal days.
Ive just resigned myself to the fact I'll never know all of UE4
Your advice doesn't count if you have past coding experience prior to UE4
Do you ever wrote a usable program at all, in the past?
Yeah, but I'm not even experienced enough to code anything myself
Yeah, had a class in college for Python, I believe but it was very hard and unbearable for me
If youre not experienced enough to code anything it doesnt really reflect on UE4 tbh
I've seen some banger UE4 games made by kids and artists alike
How so? After all, aren't the blueprints just snippets of C++?
cuz if you cant code you cant code, UE4 or not
people who can make games in UE4 have transferable skills they can take to any project
Honestly my problem is that I'm probably too impatient to take my time to learn the basics at my own pace because all I can think about are the end results of the game I wanna make
learn first then make games later
yup, if you try to do it all at once you'll demotivate yourself by not being able to hit lofty goals
its good to have ambition but still need to be realistic
You have no idea how many shit games I made with Game Maker back then :P
I used to just make little snippets of games for other peoples games
FYI: It's hot and I'm tired of it
... I just had an idea
Has anyone thought to build something in Unity and then embed the web player in Unreal's CEF?
I'll... show myself out
Maya has a tutorial with a bot character now what?
I would say something about how "everyone has robot things" but.. all my characters are robots so...
Am i insane to think this might be a good time to buy the dropped Blizzard stock and sit on it until a new and "reformed" exp comes out sometime in the future ?
Eh.
the hype potential is there tho
Really, not much is likely to change in any kind of meaningful way on that front.. probably ever. So, the real thing is whether or not it's dipped enough to be worth dumping at the spike of a new release... which is probably a bit off
Diablo 4 is who knows how far away... pretty sure WoW fatigue is real... and there was just a CoD released not too long ago
We're also on the cusp of a 2020 redux, so... everyone could be dead before then

I COULD NOT find any lyric videos for this song so I decided to make one myself :) plz comment.
much love,
That some obscure knowledge, but will check it out π π
During the 90's I didn't listened to music so much. Changed later.
I'm old and I remember almost everything
Some people have good memory for these. I don't remember movies, lyrics, names and such.
Trust me; you don't want my memory.
No need, I have mine.
I hear this song at least N times per day, where N is how long I set foot outside into the city
Important question: How is N measured?
Really, ain't it old song? Not so bad, I listened to it, but I it will tire me quickly, lol.

how can I not stand that song but you got me singing this is how we do it 9x a day

with other classics such as, but not limited to:

those 2 nelly songs and that 1 p diddy song
Because you can't adequately convey, in text, the way in which it's said in that song
You can't even get the "PUMP" part...because it requires you to do something weird with your mouth. And the "up" in "pump it up" falls off a cliff.

I tried out a radial menu plugin in the marketplace. It just caused random crashing and other weirdness... so now I'm making my own radial menu thing. I wonder if they would let me upload this as a plugin and call it "radial menu with blackjack and hookers"
excellent
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1662740/marked_for_removal/ apparently it was once called "runnerdot"
that's very strange lol
go get before gon

I've been playing The Ascent; It's basically Ruiner with a slightly wider color palette and permanent weapons.

The review quote from Kotaku is ... interesting. βThe Ascent Makes Good On Cyberpunk 2077's Promiseβ
I'm wondering which of the two games they didn't play.
Didn't know game devs were that agile
There are a few different jokes there
Lolwut, how do these two games even relate...
game journalism, they probably only played one game and 40 minutes of play time at best
Naa. If I had a suit it would be more of a splat and a trip to A+E. Using Cascadeur. Only took a few minutes to throw that together.

Huh, that program is free
How is that even a thing
:P
and even the basic tier pricing which removes some limitations is actually very reasonable
ive been eyeballing that one since it was in beta, just havent had a reason to try it.
I've had it since it was in closed beta but didn't really use it. With the latest release I decided to give it a go. Was not disappointed.
Things that I am also not disappointed about: I'm watching Mortal Kombat. It's... pretty amazing.
the original Mortal Kombat movie?
Yep.
the intro of the new one was really well done, after that it goes downhill faster than a snowboarder chased by an avalanche
btw anyone have any good suggestions on how to do radial menus in photoshop?
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0293429/
^ there is this crap
this is a quick mockup that I did, but if you pay very very close attention, you'll notice the radial menu segments don't actually line up 100% because it the segments are manually cut :P
and there is this piece of ccult classic gold: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113855/

MK 1995 is actually kinda fun
have you listened to the soundtrack album for it?
it's on Spotify and probably on YouTube too
Also, my solution to your problem would be "do it in Krita with assistants"

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119707/
and then there is this, which actually is really bad
worst cgi ever
Oh, I had it
I think on cassette and compact disc both
I can't remember who all was on it aside from KMFDM
Released in 1994 on the Vernon Yard Recordings label (a division of Virgin Records America) -- Mortal Kombat: The Album is a concept record written and performed by the tandem known as The Immortals.
Learn more about Mortal Kombat: The Album and the entire tracklist: https://www.mortalkombatonline.com/c/media/thealbum
#MortalKombat #JohnnyCage...
this is the one I was referring to
The Immortals is basically Praga Khan who was a prominent 90s techno artist
Oh. Yeah. Also familiar with that
I love it it's so freaking cheesy lol
I used to make secretly terrible mix CDs for people.. and I don't remember what track I included.. it might have been that one though
I seem to recall that Killer Instinct was the one that had its soundtrack game on point
I don't quite know what the relation between this soundtrack and the movie was though
because I don't think any of these tracks were featured in it
other than the title theme
The Test Your Might one is in there
They had that album playing on the PA at the rental store once
have you seen the russian guy's version of the mortal kombat theme? lol
And I wish that Mortal Kombat Annihilation was still on Netflix
Alexander Pistoletov, aka The Dongcopter Pirate lol
I feel like I would remember someone named "The Dongcopter Pirate"
I don't know if I should link it, even the version where he's not waving his dick around has him in swimming trunks :D
I'm not sure I need to see this
lol
Also, I will never forget this dialogue exchange: "Sub-Zero, I killed you in the first tournament." "That was my brother." "Oh."
I think Surf Ninjas might be a better film
not as good as everything IFD has ever put out
I don't have a lot of movies on DVD, but I have this one.
American Ninja is pretty incredible too
Jesus. Was this filmed on a super 8, but they cut the film in half?
it is possible
the director is famous in certain circles because he uses the cut and paste film making method and produced a lot of terrible movies using it
basically the film company would buy rights to some unknown asian movies, or perhaps asian movies which were never finished for one reason or another, and they were cut and pasted together with segments they would film in Hong Kong to make a totally dfiferent movie
the resulting movies are about as confusing as you might imagine, but some of them are kinda enjoyable, and the fight sequences actually have some decent choreography
lol
I think that was also cobbled together from several different things
Yeah I think with power rangers they used footage from a super sentai show cobbled together with footage they filmed in the US
Unrelated: I'm torn between wanting a greasy-ass hamburger and curry
but the original sentai show had a similar premise as power rangers overall, so the result was not that bad :D
"We're just some American teenagers and now we're defending the planet from bullshit."
Cyborg with Van Damme, best movie ever
Just get both
Those are not two great tastes that taste great together
I'll never forget his performance as AMERICAN FLAG TATTOO Colonel Guile in Street Fighter
Where he had such an excellent grasp of the English language, you wouldn't believe that he wasn't American
I'm getting distracted too much.
I think the soundtrack might have been where I heard of Gravity Kills
tearing down old wallpaper sucks
LaTeX zone
does that changes anything ?
Will this make it run better or worse?
because my PC already barely hits 60 fps on performance mode, I won't survive if it's worse ;-;
I think better. UE5 has Lumen and Nanite. The first one provides new global illumination in real time that was previously impossible with decent framerates. The second one has made possible to have huge models with full textures without a big performance hit, which was also impossible before.
π poor people
September
Well Nanite seems to perform okay on lower spec machines even now
Lumen... not so much
BUT RTX IS ON
Fortnite will be surely running a modded UE5, game team must be 4x the size of the engine team lol
Something went wrong. Check the logs for details.
:no_entry_sign: Unknown212#5048 was banned.
the fact you can define your own actions makes it seem pretty limitless
still feels kinda nuts to just stuff 1 million actorcomponents on an actor
Kinda wised this is available in UE4
Modified engine and last gen consoles
*and low end hardwares
ah
I assume with the same config UE5 should run with the same speed?
but I might be wrong
ahh I missed a nanite for ue4 free download no virus again didn't I?
Tried disabling Lumen and Virtual Shadow Map, still get some performance regression compared to UE4, in third person template
super TAA as well
but yeah, I feel you
I imagine there's some other harder to find scalability options
Isn't TSR basically Gen 5 TAA?
Enabling it in UE4 doesn't pose that much slowdown. 
I thought it was distinct somehow
In the Alpha Point presentation, they didn't specifically mention Gen 5 TAA, but do compare TSR against Gen 4 TAA, which makes me think that Gen 5 TAA = TSR
https://old.reddit.com/r/hardware/comments/nozuvo/testing_unreal_engine_5_temporal_super_resolution/
I found this
an extreme example to be fair
I'm imagining a world where Temporal Anti-Aliasing doesn't look like buttholes
DLSS
SMAA T2x
DLSS is just so good
So good at what?
Being an argument to force someone to have RTX cards
Because DLSS is RTX exclusive, and non-RTX users have to use other anti-aliasing options.
Though TBF, DLSS was meant to facilitate the expenses of realtime raytracing
But also it'd be the perfect tech to increase performance on lower ends
The problem with it is that in practice, it's not as ideal as that theoretical performance gain.
Have you actually used it?
It generally shaves off a few ms and makes the image ever so slightly blurrier
It's a win in my books
removes the need for AA as well
AMD is getting an equivalent tech as well iirc
From what Ive seen of direct comparisons FSR is faster
AMD already has stuff that isn't proprietary.
but I think more importantly is perhaps that Nvidia requires more watts to get their result
especially important if you live in California π
Oof
Feel like AMD cards will become more popular there for that reason
They do seem a lot more power efficient for equivalent performance
HOW THE TABLES HAVE TURNED
Also, Nvidia fatigue
I have no interest in buying more cards from them
Is the animated Mortal Kombat films gonna be better ?
I don't trust anyone with full admin privileges in a server I own.
I think I left that particular server ages ago
@graceful sequoia I see you're considering the switch to UE5 soon!
I'm slowly getting the itch
oh yeah I'm down for sure just not yet. we get so many people jumping in a little too soon
I can't wait to leverage nanite specifically
I'm looking forward to Lumen. my whole game is to heavily rely on lighting
which may actually end up screwing me up a bit... so I'm trying not to get too far into lighting to avoid having to scrap the whole system once I make the switch to ue 5
I don't think you'd need to scrap much...
you'll probably need to retweak a lot
yeah the light detection system works by raycasting from the light source to determine if char is in light. but with lumen, they'll techincally be receiving light even if there is no direct line of sight to the light source π€
I'll probably just have to fake a lot of it. either way, I'm excited for the eventual move π
"the" light source?
wouldnt it make more sense to have your lights be an actor with a collision component and a light component, and then use the collision to determine if they are "in the light"
this would be combined with perception subsystem to handle visibility checks etc
I actually did do this early on. I had custom collision meshes that detected if the player was in them, and applied the necesary gameplayeffects

may not be a bad idea to revisit this method. the free (for this month) spline custom volume tool that's in the marketplace may actually come in handy for this
i suppose that if you were in a deep shadow, and another character approached you from the side where visibility checks passed, but you were still "in shadow" it wouldnt be what youd want
but im curious how line traces would solve for that
i guess basically youd gather the light sources within a radius of the character, then line trace from the light source to the player, and if any of them were valid then it would be considered "visible"
you could still do the same in lumen though
it might be less shadowed
that's the solution I was using previously. I may go back to it, we'll see.
basically, probes get placed on the character on whatever sockets you want at begin play
nah i think the line trace model youve got is better
i just dont think lumen invalidates it
light sources take an average light value, based on all your light sources, and give you your luminance val
so I see a couple issues. like if you have a pillar between you and the light source. you'd still be visually lit due to the rays bouncing
but I'm sure I can just fake it by adding another invisible light source for those situations
i wonder if the player is really going to care if they look visibly lit but they dont get caught by the monster
don't give in!
you do have a point. may not even matter in the end at all. I guess I'll worry about optimizing if I need to when playtesting
though getting real tired of my whiteboxed levels. need some pretty art 
shopping time π or tons of hours in blender time π¦
I think having the "how illuminated am I" system favour the player is the best option
probably shopping time. but I haven't spend too much (read: any) world building before. everything I've ever done has really just been whiteboxed or shitty placeholders.
I'd love to find a somewhat complete environment.
spent some looking, but can't seem to find anything that really suits me. wish unreal's shop had better sorting
this is absolutely right. thanks. I'll have to keep this in mind
I kitbash everything
but the value of blockout cannot be underestimated
I've never fully understood kitbash. you mean just building out of modular pieces?
yep
actually slams a kit into a wall until it looks good
instead of hand designing in DCC
but blockout let's you get the "big picture" right before you go in and add tons of detail that you end up needing to change after you've done all that work
if only 
I've found it a bit hard to find kits for the general style I'm looking for. most I can find are medieval, or futuristic/scifi
I probably own every medieval one at this point lol
lol. also it could just be that I can't find them due to unreals shitty marketfront πΏ
yeah I was remarking the other day I'd love to see marketplace get some love-- how about bringing 3d previews in or being able to see the list of assets and their folder structure, or being able to import specific assets (and their dependencies by necessity) instead of the whole pack, or having an itemized list of what "conflicts" in the project being imported to versus the pack being imported
in theory conflicts shouldn't be a problem because they have standards for the vendors but in practice I run into these a fair bit
just found these guys. they have some jawdropping kits.. and unfortunately none of them would work for me
https://kitbash3d.com/collections/kits
They do have gorgeous medieval ones though
damn that sucks. I haven't yet run into this issue, but I'm not really using many marketplace addons/content yet
well I have more than I know what to do with lol. at this point I kick myself for not forward planning it to keep package sizes down
it's not terrible but I think 13GB based on how far into the game I am is a bit high :-/
that doesn't sound too bad
a game of your caliber i'd expect to end up pretty big tbh. I feel as though most people don't care too much of game file sizes nowadays
could be wrong! but π€·ββοΈ
yeah we'll see. I'm hoping that the remaining 3 quarters of the game will not add nearly as much as the first quarter, especially now that I'm cognizant of the costs
can reuse a lot of this
π€
All engine changes are merged back.

ue6 when?

Coffee and rum: breakfast of champions
is that quote brought to you by the same people that don't know the difference between Cyberpunk 2077 and The Ascent?
I knocked my shitty chromebook off my bed earlier in the week... I had to take it apart and reshape the case a bit
You need whatever that jumbo fucker is that has the secondary display
I will still be saying the same thing about realtime raytracing in games for at least 8 more years.
(assuming I'm not dead inside the next year)
Sounds like another reason to tell them to eat a bag of dicks
Would those be "fEauTuREs"?
I believe the "correct" way to say that might be "distributed cuda processor". Gotta keep up with the times of phasing shitty terms out of tech.
By the way, I wasn't being shitty about it or anything
But it is a thing that's been going on for a while
That's kind of the problem... some things don't have good replacement terms for what they do. That specifically is about removing "master" and "slave" from tech
But, yeah, people were saying "you can use primary for a master server/service and secondary for slaved stuff" ... except that doesn't mean the same thing
employer/employee 
Which is basically saying the exact same thing these days.
personally I don't really care what people wanna call that stuff
I came to the realization a long time ago that the whole thing is a kneejerk reaction resulting from all the fucking awful people in the US
and if someone wants to call it something else because it makes them feel better then let them, it literally has no effect on me
I don't really know why some people throw such a hissy fit over it :P
heh
yeah language localizations can be weird
I don't even know if there's a translation for master/slave into finnish IT terminology, at least I've never heard it called "orja" which is slave in finnish
That's the fun part of culture
Some people it doesn't affect because they have a different culture where those things were never really an issue
Yeah
And being American and a "tech" person for basically my entire life... there are some things that I get... and some that I think are stupid.
I used to get shouted at by one of the overly aggressive feminist moderators on the nodejs irc channel
because I used "he" for everyone out of habit because finnish doesn't have gendered pronouns
that turned me against that whole they/them thing for a long time but I got over it lol
The whitelist/blacklist thing is dumb. Because that's like.. retroactively attaching some kind of racial discrimination that was never there and it doesn't have any such implication its own
:D
For the longest time, "they" wasn't an accepted term to use for an unspecified gendered fictional construct of writing
So, you had to pick one.
I would be curious about the actual etymology of the word of whitelist/blacklist
like why does blacklisting have the meaning of banning or such
Which is what resulted in "let's change what gendered pronoun we use for this construct every other paragraph"
Huh, they usually don't have that deep details on wikipedia for those, let's see
Hmm, it doesn't really say why it's called a black list
why not a red list?
I think there often is some reason for it though
What's the association of the color black in this context, I guess it could be death
Yeah
so I guess in japanese a whitelist would be the bad one to be on
since white is the color associated with death :D
We have long-standing mythologies and whatnot about "light" and "dark" being "good" and "bad"
That "Medical context" of that article is pretty rough.
I think it could still be argued that due to modern context there could be a negative connotation with a blacklist
while it's kind of stupid, it's also kind of stupid that black people are called black.. because they ain't black
The United States Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) found that reviewed hospitals did not generate incident reports for 93% of adverse events. The 7% of the time when they did generate reports, the information was inaccurate 63% of the time. Problems causing harm to patients were reported accurately only 2%[14] of the time.[15]
I meant negative in a racial context
I can see how it could be perceived in that way, and that's really what matters in these I think
Yeah, but "brown" is typically hispanic or latino folks.. So.. yeah. It's all kinda dumb.
The problem is that when you're Inot a discriminatory piece of shit... you still have to worry about the perception
Yeah I don't really remember seeing as many arguments on the blacklist/whitelist topic, so I don't really know if there's a similar move with that as there was with master/slave, but I can see how someone might perceive it in that way
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
There was. With "allow list" and "block list" being suggested as alternatives. Which is fine since that's pretty clear what it does in a tech context. Less so outside of tech.
if you're not a discriminatory POS you can just not use that word if people want you to use something else, it's pretty easy imo :D
Ah yes. The "white" (LOLOLOL) knighting. That's easily one of the most insulting things itself.
When I hear racism it is like from usa. Still not a pop thing here in eu.
there is discrimination in Finland against black people and romanis/gypsies, it's not a similarly large social problem/discussion/topic though as it seems to be in the US
Ah... Gypsies... That I forgot.
I'd like to quote Mike Pondsmith
"Want to say this just once. I am really tired of well meaning people on internet chat boards paternalistically telling me what I, as a black person, should be offended by. You want to be my ally? Go gird up your loins and at this year's Thanksgiving dinner, have the nerve to tell your racist Uncle Bob to STFU for a change."
I told my mom once that I learned all the racist ideas about gypsies from her
That did not go over with her well lol
I've literally seen non-gypsies steal more at the supermarket and yet I always look at gypsies suspiciously
I'd also probably ask about what the percentage is for people of color
because of my upbringing
my mom's problems are with gypsies because also her upbringing, she had no problems with my asian ex :P
(because she secretly (or maybe not so secretly) wanted grandchildren)
Yeah, most people around are sus towards gypsies. Statistically speaking there is a reason, however it does not help.
lol who knows
I had a grandfather named Bob. And he absolutely referred to black folks by racial slur
We talked around few times about that word. And the idea around is nobody considers the usa history around and use that world freely. With the pop culture coming from west tho, this slightly changes.
yeah it's similar here
our equivalent of the n word did not have similar connotations here, but it definitely did start being used a slur even before it became politically incorrect to use it here
for example the word was used in a chocolate candy thingy's name until 2001
Same around, it was a tasty dessert. If I remember correctly, I think that word actually means black/night from its origin π€
I shot fat Garrus in half again π¦

There's a civilian alien model in The Ascent that I immediately referred to as "Fat Garrus" when one of us shot his arm off
hello gamers
Hello soft engineers
oh hi that do be me
That's why you've gotta hit the gym. Pump that iron. Be carved out of granite.
i am too squishy for that
That's why you don't just stack DPS stats
gotta go fast tho
how did you find that picture of me
sorcery
Or maybe I am a keyboard cowboy
this guy in game literally just said "gotta go fast" so
I'm worried about whatever that might be.
Also: I wouldn't take me commenting on something as being inherently evaluative
I'm pretty sure my character has butt implants now
So I pretty much am not good at making games, obviously it's a really big undertaking and professional teams struggle with it, but I'm enjoying it. Overall the community is very nice, maybe a bit burnt out on answering questions haha. Haven't really found any peers in a similar spot as me though (beginner VR) still kind of feel like im on the outside looking in sometimes.
Are you all pretty active in the community aspect of things? Is there more than just forums, discord, FB groups?
Some places have physical meets etc. Not sure how you would go about finding them though.
Thriving discord actor community heck yea
Yesterday some genius used a :Google: emoji, where the hell did they find that lovely bit of sarcastic loveliness? π

A nitro thing?
damn it! I wants! I wants!
There was free Nitro promo by Epic, legit, for 3 months
π
If people were spending several minutes of research on their own, I speculate that there will be half the questions around. On the other hand, maybe this Discord is paid by Google π€ Everyone around must be a bot.
tru dat
im afraid that if we added that emoji to our server 90% of questions would end up with that as a reply
it would probably not be wrong, but still
and thats bad why?
First day at work:
Got scared of everyone.
Befriended everyone.
Got threatened by financial manager for being too into having my own timetable.
Became best friends with financial manager.
Except when there is no one to respond.
if anyone here does any wallpaper renovation stuff in their own house, please for the love of god paint the wall with a primer first
sincerely: someone who spent 6 hours to remove old wallpaper from a wall that wasn't primed
All of this within 8 hours?
7, in fact.
kinda sounds like you hehe.
glad you befriended them :)
Does befriended mean kidnapped and forced to watch paint dry while listening to The Sound of Music on repeat, until they get their act together? π
Yeah, a rollercoaster
No, more like she just laughs at everything I say that is remotely a joke now.
And I used to listen to the Sound of Music.
To try to learn to relax.
But no, only got me more snaking.

What was that thing they said with the Steam Deck about virtually everything in your library being playable?
Except.. you know... all that stuff that doesn't work
A newspaper
There were several "secret" reloads in it. And no, no one played it because it sucked.
You could live out all of your cops and robbers fantasies (except those kind) by having a car chase that was roughly equivalent to circling the block

God help you if you're a black guy in a red shirt in a horror movie
You probably won't make it past the studio credits
The best part of The Forest is finding the tennis racket and beating people to death with it
There's some variable level of aggression
and also the red paint thing
But, really, the thing to do is just kill everything with a flare gun
but really you're a horrifying degenerate
super disappointed I couldnt make a tennis racket from the locals
there are different tribes of locals, some are more aggressive by default
I was disappointed by how much the tennis racket sucked π¦
I get far too into it, I become this Matrix Rambo dude hiding in the bushes drinking my own pee

I need help
I don't have a landline where I am, my only internet connection is via mobile
But my computer keeps disconnecting from the net (several times a day)
Makes playing online games (i.e. star citizen) a very painful experience
My laptop never does this, it's only my desktop
I disabled the wifi card in my desktop today, swapped to a USB wifi chip
It just dropped out again
So it's not my phone, or the laptop would drop out...
It's not my wifi card, cos I'm not using that now...
guessing an ethernet connection to the desktop is a no go?
No land line
oh "don't have a landline" i'm dumb
So while everyone playing star citizen complains about 30k server crashes... I get twice as many net cutouts
Driving me nuts
Probably something to do with the WiFi receiver, or Windows eat up your connection
The latter sometimes happen, especially svhost or wuauserv
I'm a total noob with networking... I don't really know what that means sorry
Check your Task Manager and sort by the network usage
It's negligble atm
Star Citizen & painful experience in the same sentence π€
More so when you can't go more than an hour without your net disconnecting
Why not wait 4-5 years more the game to get in Beta? π
Also, maybe check with your mobile operator.
pfft, only 5 years?
At this point it's unclear whether Yandere Simulator or Star Citizen is going to finish first.

RGB has officially gone too far when it's being applied to toilets.
those blue lights are so u cant see ur vains, its to keep junkies from shooting heroine in the toilet
I meant toilets. Commodes. Fart amplifiers. Not a bathroom/restroom/water closet/"the facilities"
ahh, i dunno about that
Besides, the pro heroin users shoot up in places that don't cause obvious tracks
owner of a bar told me that, he had to put those blue lights up to keep junkies out
Reminds me of the UV lights to push away mosquitoes.
Not sure how it helps against addicts tho.
I feel like everyone has that ... little voice that says "you're going too far" right before you start shooting up drugs... and that's a very different abyss than the one I've stared into.
lol once at a multi day festival some guy asked me and some friends for a spoon, a friend gave him a plastic one but he said it was no good, he got a wooden spoon but it also was no good
he said it was for needle stuff so we told him to go elsewhere
Really? A wood spoon wasn't good enough for him? Come on, that charcoal just adds to the high
that is why the multitool spoon,fork is great
SPORK
one version of it have knife too
Depending on the breed of spork, it might not be appropriate for that
That actually doesn't make sense... because ... you can't use the fork and the knife at the same time
(totally ignoring the part where you should already have a knife)
unless you have 2 sporks
And, because I'm me, I have absolutely been eating at a place where they gave me a terrible knife that was not fit for purpose... so I pulled out my own.
the camping gear
Yeah. I know what you mean. But you still have that problem that if you need a food knife, you also still need something to hold whatever you're cutting. And, I guess you could use your hand, but at that point, you might as well pick the whole thing up like a steak sandwich and bite right into it.
But, if you're camping, you should definitely have a real knife. By which I mean at least two.
seems like there is those sets what you can seperate each other as well
That's a lot more workable then. I'm not super familiar with it... because I don't camp.
the military style
outdoors ruined my life... so I don't volunteer for it... also, I can't thermoregulate properly anymore, so I'd probably die.
And now I need to go away for a while because I was supposed to stop vomiting my stream of consciousness into a chat window and I'm currently doing a terrible job of that today.
nice one kid
I don't know how to respond to that.

I'm assuming when you say "join" you mean "unpaid"... in those cases it really depends on the person whether they find your project interesting
"we can remember it for you wholesale"
For the "hire someone to do BP's" part... they sound incompetent if they can't work on that stuff tbh
Source control: having source access is normal. You do a contract with hires that makes it so that if they do stuff like stealing your shit, you can sue them to oblivion
Allow me to weigh in on this... because... well why not
Yeah it's unpaid if I'm being honest. But they all say it's fine and they don't mind as long as they're given credit. I even tell them about the profit distribution model and the claim is that it's not about the money. That is the first criterion I iron out before proceeding.
Yeah, there's lots of people who'll say they'll do stuff or such but they really will never get around to much
- Don't try to find random people for projects; make an acquaintance first so you're sure you don't want to shove them out of an airlock.
- You need source control. Learn to source control. Also learn how to appropriately limit access.
- If they need to steal your shit, odds are good that they won't be able to do anything particularly useful with it anyway.
it's just the nature of how this sorta stuff works... I'd like to work on all kinds of cool things but I know I don't have time or interest for them always lol
and yeah, what Justin says is definitely the way to go with #1
I have source control. I'm just sad that soon after getting a login to the source control, the communication starts to die off
I would say that's a distinct possibility of failing at step 1.
I'm trying to think of how to put this in a way that doesn't sound super shitty
True I guess? But then I don't personally know anyone into game dev
Mainly because you didn't absolutely immediately strike me as the kind of moron that will randomly roll up in here and ask the forever memeable "something somthing mmorp"
yeah, in that example, they don't even bother with the G part
What? No π π
I wonder how JohnOfTurbulence's Unity MMO is going

You really need to know who you're dealing with.. and also be on the same page with their expectations and what you have available... and make sure those are all reasonable and realistic.
@foggy path No.

I wonder if he got banned from here or just left
one day I just realized he was no longer here
If I was a moderator, YOU would be timed out for 48 hours for bringing that up
Funny thing is that my partner who is the level designer was met randomly
ah :D
(re: why I hate the term "partner" for someone you're in a relationship with)
Running into someone randomly is fine... but... look... it's like any other relationship
Same here. I felt a bit weird typing that
You buy someone a drink, flirt a little, talk about how much they love basket weaving... before you ask them to work on your Colecovision project
I just use "person I'm plowing" for absolutely every context

oo Ghostrunner free on Steam
been meaning to play that some more because the demo was pretty good
I bought it on sale at some point
In a surprise to no one... I have yet to launch it.
lol
yeah
it being free is a good excuse to actually play it instead of the other games I have lined up
if I end up finishing it I guess I'll buy it to be fair to the devs :D
It's either on deck soon... or I'm going to quit playing video games. I'm not sure which right now.

Ironically Epic is the one actually giving Nitro π
How much does discord make off of nitro anyway?
Considering a pretty small portion of users actually buy it
For me the perks you get from nitro are pretty much just gimmicks
Sure file size and overall quality is nice
Pretty small?

Depends on which community you look at honestly
People that use emotes a lot (like me) love nitro
Or those that stream to an audience

What are your thoughts on it now that you've played with it?
I've no idea what that is, I've never animated before.
The arm thing in your video could probably be fixed by selected the arm timeline, select those frames and set them to FK.
Whats the best game subscription in your opinion? Ea play , Microsoft , ubisoft+
Microsoft's has a really good game selection at the very least, I don't recall others really having that
game pass is great
Yeah, the physics tool doesn't like things being pushed into the ground it seems. I'll say this though, their discord support is on the ball.
That's pretty much I take away too. It's actually FUN to mess around with, it's quick to test out things and just as fast to tweak keyframes, add more or remove 'tween frames [select keyframe and press + / -] In other apps I've always given up after a few mins as it was a PITA to get to grips with.
that is pretty good i like the part where the chair
Yup. me too. I was in the closed beta from pretty much when it started but didn't have the time or the motivation to use it then. It's improved a lot since then and glad they went down the free to indies path.
I wish I had played more with the physics and ballistics tools, they are amazing
That is.... fantastic. Please post that in their discord... π π

no one said using The Forceβ’οΈ had to be glamorous.
They may ask you to send them the scene so they can dissect it.
damn didn't have time to ping mods this time 
I do. Yes.
π
It's the fulcrum I think.
The bit that tells the engine it's connected to the ground.
I know you can tell it to use other things as the fulcrum, like in the somersault scene they provide where the character is holding onto the bar.
Indeed, but tis cool. I don't mind sharing my admittedly limited knowledge π
