If you don't stay till it's morning again, are you even working?
summary "capable of doing everything we throw at you"
but maybe that's what senior posts are about idk
i have been enjoying Unreal Engine (bluΓ«print system) for many many years! and over the years i have started to code Arduino (ESP32) and i cannot help to feel it would be awsome to use UE4 (blueprint system) to code for Arduino (export the code to files) and then use Arduino IDE or platfromIO to upload the code!
well programming jobs here 50/50 still require comp sci diploma
even if its related to game dev so i guess i should go for that instead
you're homeless?
That guy clearly has a diploma
Its his new ballad that of the suffering mobile game developer... I released my first game yo, it got panned hard yeah, screw all you haters, my next game panhead is free to play yay yeah
Clearly inspired by island boys
that's deep bro
and the cows?!
well, grass can sit in it and travel
quite autonomous too
the cows tow the van
that's quite the imagery
Kung pow is best kung pow
that node looks neat π
Kung cow!
I still have to restart explorer.exe to get my taskbar to stop appearing on top of programs, anyone know why that might be happening?
I think the reason you are restarting explorer.exe is because it's appearing on top of programs? Or did I miss anything?
that's what I said, yeah
the taskbar appears on top of fullscreen applications until I restart it
do let us know if you find more
Hey guys, I have an offer from my friend to buy a plot of land with a "villa-like glamping pod" on it. On an island ποΈ. For 5k. What should I do. Invest 5k in BC. Or buy this?
i only know of . and , for viewing previous or next frame
hi
it must be nice having keyboards, discord also has hot keys
like i said, i am on a phone mostly..
oh right, that was lorash
in what way π€
Atlantic Ocean. Will send location maybe next week)
as long as it's not a scam
Need to do more research by myself i guess)
We will see
Hi friends I have a non-scam for you that you will love! Just send me money of any currency in a large amount to find out more!
do you accept hugs?
you can resell them to me
ok cool I'll resell your hugs to you for twice what you would have given me originally
infinite money
well, we can convert it to something more than hugs...
a debt to you is not really a debt π€
oh how do you figure?
no... or that accounting software is in trouble π
try garlic spray... bugs hate that
so do vampires !
yeh those spread malaria so that's a good thing to avoid
yeh there's a real vampire bug problem
what kind of bug is that ,sounds like a parasite of sorts
Wild Vampire
ah these guys
they are really annoying
so i will post a bounty, i will give you a β€οΈ each time you kill one!
and this is how vampire bugs took over the world
@proud pier just saw your game posted on Razer's facebook page, grats that oughta drive some sales :)
anyone know how to fix this? It's the lyra template it's untouched
you have LyraGameEOS selected as your project you need to select your game
in your IDE
that you should be starting from
thanks for the help, but i already fixed it, it turned out that i needed to install visual studio 2019 with the C++ tool kit
well yes you need that, but you should have gotten VS2022 instead
got some decent stuff using surrealism with ai
ai actually makes you want to study art more
all the genres and history
this one looks similar to modern ai artwork
yeah I know
too much ai dreams
i guess it's time to go buy some oil paint, smell the fumes and make real art
π
*2022
DALL-E mini go brrrrr
I mean, sure, the generated images is rather shit, but I don't care, I used it to have some rough concept art for fantasy combinations
yeah, they don't give the same feeling you get from process of creating something
they lack the story and deeper touch to it all
What if I fill in the gap myself?
Is that still illegal?
i sat down before pretty hard and it feels like my spine has been compressed into a single atom
For one, I'd still have to put in the prompt myself, so I have to think about some outlandish combinations. From the generated AI imagery, I then decide how the concept pan out down the line. Once it's settled, I translate it into a story I wrote myself, and to some extent gameplay.
If you want to call that thought process lazy, I don't mind. I'm a lazy MF in and out after all.
nah, it works
lol
Use AI generated content as a stepping stone, not a substitute.
it gets you moving, but not the same as internal inspiration from nothing
Okay purist
lol
that is pogger
Now interpret that with MetaHuman, using stylised base in Mesh to MetaHuman. I challenge you.
i found this
so yeah, could work
lol
Will Mesh to MetaHuman interpret generated scan correctly?
That's the question.
@zinc matrix
Mesh to MetaHuman exists tho
At least you can either scan a real life head, or start from unoptimised sculpt of a face
I've seen great stylised Mesh to MetaHuman results
nice
i used headshot plugin in character creator to generate faces, but every face model is the same
it has no details that define it
in the end the lazy methods actually take more time lol
not bad lol
but once you start going too detailed with words it messes up
it catches certain phrases or just one or two words
like trying to type poetry into it and see what happens
poor thing, people are really making it work hard π
oopps my bad thanks

this bird actually makes a creepy af sound
This prehistoric bird looks like it wants to murder you in your sleep. That's probably why its gaze is affectionately nicknamed the "death stare. Known as a shoebill, this bizarre bird found meme fame because of its bone-chilling stare. Even Joe Rogan gave the shoebill a social media shoutout. But this bird has other captivating attributes. How ...
just those first few seconds
π
good thing I'm moving hopefully soonβ’οΈ
[Incoherent degenerate noises]
wait that's a real bird?
Yes
i don't have space for that xD
so dino bird sounds like machine gun, interesting
discord only allows 256 characters, no way i can write a novel in that tiny space!
pastebin
they're going to dieter the dieter
the dedication one will need to look up pastebins while talking xD
Ugh, I think I have to make the decision to drop deformable terrains in my game π¦ Really really wanted to implement it but it introduces some likely issues with financial feasibility
Either that or I'd have to implement it in a way that allows it only within specific zones so that players could be moved between server instances which would introduce some undesirable byproducts like "where'd my neighbor's place go?"
in my case the data would be cheaper to replicate in my implementation anyway.
The issue I foresee is paying for servers with low populations and not being able to move them to other servers because of terrain differences. (players can "own" land and would have been able to modify the terrain itself)
2 options are: 1. allow deforming terrain only within predefined plots of land so they can be merged into other servers when needed or 2. static landscape terrains but still full building. Loses one major aspect but simplifies things a lot (plus performance of landscapes is way better than anything I can bake up)
true people could self host but my experience in this type of game is that is that it really reflects badly on the game because people not keeping their servers up, data loss etc
I do like the idea of centralizing with "official" servers
oddly enough I never checked out Factorio but I've heard the name a ton. Valheim I just bought today π
Valheim had a lot of really great ideas
heh
I mean its an option. I just know that my experience has been mixed with that type of thing
putting in a bunch of work on someone's server for a few weeks and then the server vanishes. sucks
I should mention this is meant to be a very grindy game where it takes a tremendous amount of time to progress your character
so that type of stability could really be a major thing for me
It could be a matter of changing the polling rate for building, instead of allowing updating on the fly for areas side by side maybe its done much slower like every hour or more. Things would seem to pop up though but its far more cost effective on the server end
NMS has a manual save thing but even then it has sync issues, too much terrain editing will get you in troubles and sometimes you just need to reload a zone
games where you just play with friends work just fine with self hosted imo
games where you play with randos might need something else
Satisfactory is another one... I'm not entirely sure how the hosting thing works in that because it does use EOS for at least connecting players together but I think the actual hosting is just on whoever starts the session
Even Half-Life 2 cancelled that feature.
Oh I didn't know that. Wonder if it's the same sort of concern they had
I'd wager it's more of technical and story related issue. They demoed the deforming terrain back in 2003, but that feature got cancelled when the game released more than a year later
Im sure it'd be easier for a non-competitive type game where collision doesnt need to be server side for the best results
I remember there was another very big title (can't remember the name) that never even made it to open beta because of it
your house doesn't move servers in terraria though
Yeah thats the option 2. I really wanted to have mostly free terraforming with certain storeline-important areas protected but merging people's things into other servers would be impossible without really changing things on them
I'm just basing these concerns on the fact that these types of games are very niche and typically geta burst of newbies and then die off to a small number of diehards lol
for what I'm doing I mean
heavy inspirations from Wurm Online in that sense
Theres always the sequel if the first game generates enough traction.
for the terraforming part
heh
that is true lol
I'll be honest. I'm building my dream game. Hopefully someone else loves it if I ever complete it lol but I do have to consider the financials of running it
I'm building some that I conceptually also really like but the practicalities of it are hard lol
Yeah I feel that
And I'm not even trying to make something so ambitious as multiplayer with building :P
Just a retro shooter (main problems is art and general design stuff I guess, it's hard to do all that), and the other is sort of a simulator/management/building game where you build/run a video rental store (it's just very complex in general lol)
Nothing wrong with starting with a simpler form and building it up over sequels or different IPs in the same sub-genre
Thankfully for the shooter my friend is making a lot of really nice looking art assets and stuff so maybe we'll get that to some kind of finished state one day, but he's also busy with other stuff so sometimes it's hard to get progress
Yeah, there's some games in a similar vein but they're more on the tycoon style of play, mine's from a first person perspective
There's a bunch of sort of cheap and janky sims in a similar style, like there was some kind of weed shop game recently, but mine's probably a bit more ambitious and hopefully less janky lol
my weakness is animation. I can even rig pretty solid but animation is not my strong suit. Relying a lot on 3rd party stuff
Yeah all my animations are just off mixamo except for some really basic IK stuff like reaching out to pick up an item
mixamos a great place to get stuff for sure. Thank god for all the tools UE has for animation lol I'd be fucked without it
Yeah, Blender is such a pain lol
I don't mind forking over cash for tools that would make it easier to do basic anims, but I have a million other things to do first
I can easily add character animations for actions later
Meh replication thats the easy part π€£
for me its not blender its me lol I'm just not good at creating convincing motions
I'm even looking at dropping the money on iClone 8 + CC4
Wasnt it Simcity they added MP too but everyone hated it cuz the levels were so much smaller
that one will hurt though
Yeah Sim City (5) had that weird online thing
I kinda still enjoyed that game, it had some neat ideas and the future city DLC stuff was pretty cool
Certainly had some limitations with the level size, that was definitely entirely valid critique
Super Sim City on SNES was one of my fav childhood games
and Aerobiz, not sure if anyone remembers that one
was like train simulator except airports
1991 - Maxis / Infogrames
Composer: FrΓ©dΓ©ric Mentzen
Amiga CDTV Sim City has pretty cool music
:D
I guess it comes down to how the mechanic functions if youre allowed to edit anywhere and the same terrain or people claim lots, have preset areas where they can build, add people to their friends to allow editing etc. There could be ways to make it work without requiring more work
omg Amiga
It's the only Sim City soundtrack with lyrics
I heard this the first time and it was like woah
lol
I think the way it worked was you shared a "region", where you had different plots to build cities on
you couldn't go into someone else's city and fuck with it
of course you could have private regions too, I never played a region with anyone else :P
Fun fact: It's actually not the first Sim City with multiplayer
Sim City 2000 Network Edition was a thing
in that you actually do build in the same area
Yeah sounds abit like Cities Skylines regions but other people can purchase the nearby ones too
Thats not with the robots is it
never heard of lol
oh man, characters all had special abilities like when you hit the ball, the bat could break and spins around with the ball or it would turn a pop fly into a bomb so whoever catches it gets smoked
Ahh no robots is Super Baseball 2020
or a rocket line drive where it takes the fielder right out of the stadium if you made it over the wall lol
that was a good time
The special ability in real 2020 was to make everyone in vicinity got sick
Except the anti vax karens conspiracy theorists
Collateral damage
"turning red"? i wonder what the backstory is, sounds freaky
Heh, not as many as you would think π
Well one's better than zero still lol
Yeah I think it's interesting though
At least in my head Razer's audience is perhaps a bit more hardcore gamers, so I don't know if Victor's game is for that particular demographic
But Razer is clearly trying to be a lifestyle brand, and they seem to also be pushing for a more female oriented audience with some of their products, so perhaps it's wider than it seems... but I'm really just speculating
They're certainly going for that cutesy stuff with their Sneki Snek character and what have you, so who knows?
lol
Yeah I don't know, I think they work just fine without the software but you can't configure anything
Logitech's driver also probably phones home all the time but it does work without being online :p
Yeah I've thought about it but it feels like a lot of effort and so many of firewall apps are just pure garbage like antivirus software :p
I guess Windows Firewall may have some options for it but never looked at it that much other than that I know it has that advanced configuration view which has a lot of stuff
Wait girl gamers who like cutesy stuff arnt hardcore?
I think you might want to research alittle on twitch for that one π

Can we take 5 second to discuss about that ? π #salary-jobs message
Lol
Mashup featuring Unreal Tournament & Scatman Video Hd made at rave.dj
you should be worried any time you look at UE's code
average code Β―_(γ)_/Β―
oh lol is it @zinc matrix on twitter
oh shit there was a user called that here? sorry for the highlight, discord didn't tell me until I posted :p
Anyway looks like it's just a brotli encoding peculiarity, that's not an indication of any kind of security issue
one more for team UI overhaul π
Ben, i want to add a grape on you
After round 1 he seemed confident that he could stop Levan by round 4, but he damaged his bicep on round 2 and that killed his plans.
Did you watch it too?
yeah
I wonder how things would of been If he didn't tear his bicep
But it's the same with cyplenkov
He basically got the same ammount of stop on cyplenkov without injury
And still lost
interesting, didn't compare them
I mean they are different but they are the titans of the sport
Would of been interesting though to see what it would of been like without the injury
Then he would actually of had no excuses
from now on you're gonna have to be a mutant with abnormally strong tendons to be nr1
Lol
I would like to see how Alex or ermes does against him
I hate to say It but I think Devon is just out of the game
It's sad
I would of wanted to see him fight levan before elbow surgery
He says he stronger than he was then
I don't really believe that
i really didn't want to edit memes into it or else it will be come those unfunny shitpost videos, but i plan on making videos
how can you get this stuff?
or better question
how to make one

Hi π
I don't think it would have made a difference. You could see during round 1 that Levan was so much stronger than Devon. All the technique in the world wouldn't have been able to close that gap. Devon might as well have competed against a hydraulic press. I respect both athletes.
oh yeah for sure it was pretty much guessed that levan would just flash pin and win

So I recently built a new PC and I decided to buy a new SSD from Windows and bring my other SSD after everything was set up. I plugged in my old SSD and it is now no longer working. So I decided to put it back in the PC it came from and is still now working. I made sure everything was plugged in good, checked to see if I can enable it anywhere, and checked bios. Does anyone know how to fix this?
how come computer scenes in movies involve the character sitting down and start typing instantly
That's super weird. Don't have an idea though, someone else very well might though
Also Ping me to get my attention
It is really strange
windows license is tied to mobo or some shit
I transferred my windows license to this new computer
yea reactivating it should be simple enough
I am making a game any game ideas what do you want to play
an MMO side scroller top down first person shooter turn based card game.
You need more vbucks
Can we please not give them any ideas π
10% of your bandwith is my entire bandwith π
In before we get a premium subscription service for higher download speeds or whatever.
That's silly.
I'd prefer a MMORPG turn based side scrolling shooter card game, bottom up.
Do you shoot the cards or are the cards thr guns?
the bullets are the cards and the guns are actually a projection of an 8 dimensional crystal matrix as deconstructed in the 4th dimension and projected on to a 2D sprite.
This post gave me wifi poisoning
8th dimensional crystals are radioactive when transferred over a network
We call it a metabomb
what crystals do I need to protect myself from this bad energy?
Quantum metasonic anti-frydars
Cheers π
which will of course be available as DLC
my epic downloads is allways super fast
it doesnt download and install at the same time tho
Multi tasking is a lie
you cant eat ur food and cook it too

Bored Ape Stolen
sorry i dont know any nft jokes
It's funny that he really paid the ransom lol
Tbh I just want to watch it crumble and burn
Makoto what make the anime show halted in production
i told some nft guy nfts are stupid... he said i didnt understand
What show are you talking about?
mayB i understand a lil too much π
NFT is just ownership things like you own your real things in real physical space
no... its really not
nope
that is is and nothing more
That's not an anime show, but yeah, Seth Green fell for a phishing and the NFT his show is based on sold to someone else and held ransom.
but its not like u own anything any1 cares about nor do you have to proof you own it anywhere
That's a massive L for Seth Green, really. The new owner take back his money, if not more from the second hand selling.
bored ape discord got hacket as well
hope seths system is still compromized and he has to pay for it again
NFT bros are THE circus lol
They were too much focused on the get rich quick scheme
well people left some of the items not picking what they sold so yeah
so did seth pay it cuz he didnt own the rights to his own cartoon anymore?
overhere ur not allowed to buy stolen goods.. he should totally get arrested
Pretty much that, yeah.
Many said the stolen NFT includes the copyright/IP that stem from it
sounds like he is some true believer π
yea thats not a real thing
you cant invalidate a contract by stealing it π
Still, if it's too good to be true, then it most likely is
there is no way any1 could claim the right to his cartoon or block it from release
hey i have this stolen nft... you cant release ur cartoon...
yea that wil never fly
im no lawyer but... logic
and thats if those nfts are somekind of legal contract
wich i sorta doubt
It's not like NFT is regulated to begin with at the moment of the heist, so yeah
So on Seth Green's side, it's basically "suck to be you"
yea he sucks π
just get a real artist and make a real cartoon, instead of pushing his ponzi propaganda π
some1 was explaining to me why btc should be worth over 50k
based on nothing at all
cuz rare
now i started to offer btc for good deal of 40k cuz market is a lot lower
but he didnt think it was worth 50k at all?
it was one of those buy dip go moon guys
or to offer more of it so people customize they own bored ape
yeah and some can get it and show I made this and you have no proof of saying you did it or didn't do it
if NFT have right to modify it then when you modify it that is added to NFT
metamucil? π€£
the owners of the nft art get the share and you who modified the art file can decide if you sell or as it is or copy it and sell like 10 of modified NFT Art
or sell many to make more in the long game?
terra luna classic made me a whopping profit last night :p I only have $20 worth (250,000 coins) but a punt is a punt :p
Is that the one that crashed
yeah
also something what bug me of things that does folks think that asset what is linked to NFT after it being bought stay on that same place?
it was down at .00005xxx when I bought it. I'm just holding though to see if the burn can revive it
I guess if you dig far enough down you might get to the moon too π
lol that is a nice chart
yeah if it gets to 1cent I make 2.5k so here's hoping. If they link it on stablecoin properly without the algorithm bs, it might even end up at $1. But thats about as likely as Elon Musk winning the Coolest dude on earth award
considering most coolest dude awards are just a bunch of white dudes hifiving each other
don't count it out
:P
true
Gonna buy me some Luna, there's 1 million eur trading volume for it somehow
luna 2.0?
No idea, the EUR value is 0.00008788 so I think it's the same one you're looking at :P
ah thats luna classic
Got me a 100 000 for 8 eur lol
I have a bunch of other shitcoins as well and they all just tanked but hey 8 eur is no big deal
there is currently a burn happening and there is a 1.5% burn tax on all sales so this is just the effect of that really. It's a long term thing as there are 6.5 trillion coins in circ
maybe one of you can make enough to fund my game π
Binance own almost half of all Luna Classic and if they decide to burn their stock, the price could lose a couple of those zeros and make a lot of people rich. Time will tell tho
Projections say this is going to be a 5 year holding period before it's anywhere but I can wait
did they make another coin after the first one tanked? lol
Y U No invest in AMC
Luna 2 is the replacement for Luna classic. They branched the coin and airdropped to those who held Luna classic. Then everyone who got airdropped sold their stock and it tanked
so the idea is to keep making coins, get rich then dump it... why does this sound so familiar
yep
lol
I guess keep an eye out for Luna 3 and short the shit out of Luna 2 if it shows up :p
Luna was trading at over $100 before it crashed. But some concerted effort to tank it happened
I should buy some land and sell the same land to many people, I'll be rich, how has no one thought of it before
infact if its virtual land, I can just imagine more
the thing is, even tho a lot of these coins are a bit of a scam, if you micro-trade, it's still profitable. You just got to keep an eye on it
It's a lot of work to do that though and you have to really figure out the TA for it
oh you scared me, thought you were gonna say that evil word...
Monsymountain with limited people virtually?
if you wrote an AI bot to watch the markets and trade for you, it could be super profitable as they can trade in an instant. It's how the real stock market ended up going. The people who had the bots made money. But the people who owned the connections to the stock market computers realised and did the same and made more
I get the feeling if it was that easy we'd see it a lot more
I've seen a few posts on reddit talking about these kinds of trading bots and github projects for them
well this is the problem. Because it's millisecond trading, the people who own the connections always beat you. But you can still make moeny
the closer you are to the stock exchange the easier it is to trade at the highest point
pls make money and give it to me
isn't there like a legal requirement to have a certain lenght of fiber between the exchange and the user
making money is easy. You just need money to use to make it. Wait.... catch 22 π
remember that time they locked people out of trading, yeah that happens because they cant make the trades at the agreed price in time
so they put coils of wire just on top of eachother just to artificially delay connection
I have calculated that I will be a millionaire if I keep up my savings at current rate
However I will be like 65 by the time that happens
lol
Celcius just locked up all trading on their system, which should be illegal really. Loads of people went broke from it
my favourite is how PayPal is like 10hrs behind the actual stock exchange
I was thinking of this probably https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8BcCLLX4N4
High-frequency traders have a few tactics on stock exchanges: but simply put, they gather price information faster than anyone else, sometimes even faster than the markets themselves, and use that to make a tiny profit many, many, many times. There are all sorts of solutions: but it turns out there's a simpler one that involves physics.
Thanks ...
HFT is a fucking joke tbh

so many people believed in toilet paper that it happened
That reminds me of an old joke. "The Irishman invented the toilet, but the Englishman added the hole".
lol
toilet paper doodles ftw
still decent
yeah I guess I might not have to worry about pensions at the very least :P
of course this assumes we don't suffer some kind of gigantic bank crash in the coming 30 years lol
or some other calamity which at current rate seems possible
I think someone should sell Curling Toilet Paper. It comes with a target on it, when you wipe, you score points for accuracy
how bout toilet paper game like guitar hero it scrolls and you gotta arse the hit points
thanks belgium, these signs in my road

I do have Windows 8.0 as VM with Visual Studio 2012. To develop windows 8 apps
But I'm on Win 8.1
Windows 10 is more perfect than Windows 8 and 8.1, especially after many updates.
Hated full screen Metro UWP the most, and the UI being too tablet oriented
I got classic shell, I'm considering after I studied the UE source code.
to port my game for Windows 8 Metro, which will indirectly include Win 10 metro
I have enough issues finding a regular Dodge Charger π
Made me giggle, but I had wiggled with my bike and almost fall
It was frightening tbh
I wouldn't bother with UWP if I were you

I've tried all the slots, I even put it back in the other computer and plugged in the same slot it was originally in.
It is a Samsung SSD
But the problem can't be the board not supporting it. Because I plugged it back into the computer that had it working
Yep
so how does that eliminate the board not supporting it exactly?
I had so much stuff on that drive. I hope it is not all gone
What about other NVMe SSDs?
I am currently working on a game about a post aplocypse
well if it loads on your original pc it's not gone is it
It will no longer load on my original pc
Both the drives?
there's 2 drives now?
I said that earlier. Yes I have a hard drive also that came out of the same computer working. Now they won't go back into any computer working
Oh sorry my bad. I didn't say that. I am mixing up two chats I'm having on this right now. @proud jay
with local megascans lib 1TB would be sorta short
you wil prolly have tons of dupes everywhere also
like if you import 4 paragon chars they might all have the same noise texture in a diffrent location
some game company recently said something about them using the same texture on multiple locations so the hdd could load em faster or something
but i call bullshit on that
also something about the option to opt out on 4k textures... im all for that
but the reasoning was that some ppl dont have 4k tvs
complete lack of understanding about pixels and textures
like i use 8k textures on my 1440p screen... i can zoom in and see the diffrence quite clearly
Watched this one on the day it got posted
@sand oxide thats basically a horror story π
dont think it would help much if installed on a decent drive
Do republicans hate gamers ?
i dunno .. we dont have any of those here
what's republicans
hello
What's the average queue wait for War Thunder Air Battles?
twice as long as half the waiting time
More ai generated stuff π
I have been perfecting the art of writing AI prompts the last few days lol
Maybe invest in cooking classes instead.
@broken sigil wich one u use?
Midjourney
damn i need to sign up?
Yeah it's a closed beta you have to sign up for
It's pretty insane what it can do
Oh sweet baby Jesus
for some reason its really good at making zombie ponies
Lower right it couldn't decide whether that was a tail or leg
But can you get it to draw Manny riding a zombie pony?
lol
bread making π
yea all u need is a my lil keanu pony
my little horror pony π
southpark prolly broke that π
now we can never know how a true manbearpig looks

I want to see a my little pony / alien crossover now.
Bonus points since AI can't own a copyright.
!8ball hey manny, were you made in blender?
@supple apex, :8ball: Cannot predict now.
That was a historical question Manny. Tsk tsk.
but the result of that application could be copyrighted?
Manny too shy to answer
Dangerous question. Does the initial copyright belong to you for writing the prompt or the owner of the AI website for publishing the result of your prompt? Is it a derivative work from your prompt? What artworks did the AI take inspiration from, and do their respective owners have a potential copyright claim (since the AI, lacking a true creative process, cannot claim to have used them as inspiration)?
all stuff for TOS
except the later question
!8ball Does composing AI use a creative process?
@celest musk, :8ball: You may rely on it.
Ordinarily I don't think a TOS can alter copyright, but employment can...
well, biased
well, by using the webapp you can agree that you don't claim any rights on your input
e.g. from craiyon.com
Can I use the images generated through craiyon?
Yes, feel free to use them as you wish for personal use, whether you want to share them with your friends or print on a T-shirt. For commercial use, please contact us .
Speaking of AI here is more
@supple apex, :8ball: Ask again later.
I guess not
Since Manny is getting an update, that's a perfect response.
See if you can get a UE mannequin related one
Gonna give it a shot π
I need to give it a reference image because this is not Manny lol
Well it tried something...
also discord thinks this is explicit....
8-Ball only answers yes or no
It's a robot after all, of course Clyde would be horny on the same species
lol
Good point...
!8ball are you attracted to other discord bots?
@zinc matrix, :8ball: It is certain.
Oh dear
Well, Manny is naked.
!8ball Are you attracted to Lyra mannequin?
@quasi mantle, :8ball: Without a doubt.
Keep your sense of pride, UE4 Manny π
brainstorming a few design mockups for a project management application I wanna start working on as a portfolio piece
the idea is that you can make tasks like your average kanban board, but each task can link to other tasks, and the main task is considered done when all the other tasks are, kinda like github milestones
So basically like every other system.
almost
you see
it's like every other system
but not as good
first draft looks like this
The order seems wrong there.
The stuff you're actively working on should be the priority. The backlog the least priority.
Swap 'em.
yeah I've not had the chance to work in big team, don't know much about how people with real jobs use these. my initial rationale was that you'd be moving tasks from left to right
like the further along the x axis the task is, the closer to completion it is
guess I figured wrong
HacknPlan has them with future, in progress, testing and then complete
future being at the end I presume?
guessing from what you said here
also tried experimenting with this weird graph idea I had, but I'm not very confident about it
those graphs are good for game design plans rather than project management
well my reasoning was that it would let you see which tasks depend on which others at a glance
but it only makes sense with very few tasks
if it's a linear sequence of task orders it can look good
starts looking like a big tangled spider web as you add more and more
I was gonna try to mock up a gantt chart too, but yeah no I have no idea how they work
So kinda like a reimagined trello?
No, in HnP future tasks are on the far left.
You will spend more time making the graph render properly with a large project than you will with the rest of the project.
yeah I had already started making variants at different zoom levels, but this is for a portfolio not for money
too much work

What do shields actually do in scifi movies/shows? In star trek they block transporters but don't block transmissions or physical damage. I don't really have any other movies/shows to compare to
They do block physical damage, but the ship bounces around for absolutely no reason.
Except in Star Trek 6, when they appeared to limit damage instead of preventing it.
they do what the plot requires
Actually, all through The Motion Picture to Star Trek 6 they seemed to be ineffective.
I don't remember what happened in the Abrams versions.
In general sci-fi game territory (or just any game that uses shields) they tend to be a buffer before taking actual damage and generally regenerate, whereas health (or structural integrity) does not.
Unless it's medieval fantasy, then your shield is a literal shield, either having an abstract block chance or being purely for show.
Or a damage reduction.
do you guys sometimes just forget to breakfast or just me
I get really nauseous if I forget it
That sounds like low sugar. You might be diabetic.
Pretty sure nausea is normal. Low blood sugar would be shakes
Lol ye that's a good point. I'm mostly taking from voyager and tng since ds9 doesn't really have them and I haven't seen any of the older movies, just the Abrams ones
Is it strange that I feel my heart start pacing in my chest when I see the word "blocked"?

I don't wanna read
just wondered why you have an empty repo for it
ghost maze
unfortunately the midjourney ai is only free trial
and then it's like 10 bucks amonth
yeah, but I don't
The art style seems great for creating d&d portraits
I won't
still waiting for midjourney and dalle invite
if you find a way to print those images with oil painting and big scale, i bet you can fake your way into being an artist lol
send those paintings to bunch of galleries
and cash in
π
adding a bit of real paint layers to it
this one needs to catch up
@fleet tangle
I mean the Alien β’οΈ alien!
guess i started somekind of trend.. lot of ppl matching kids stuff with horror in that channel now π
that's nice one
How many weeks Midjourney takes to approve access?
make it into a 3d character
the alien pony ? π
sued by hello kitty
advantage of crappy sculpt skills is it wont resemble the original enough to get sued π
!8ball is midjourney access decided at random?
@zinc matrix, :8ball: My sources say no.
!8ball on a scale of 0-10 how much are you an ai
@proud jay, :8ball: Ask again later.
This is technical animation gold

Battlefield 1's Great War era features some of the most unique and interesting, real-world based weapon designs represented in video games. As our last update draws near, I wanted to make a series of videos that breakdown some of these weapon designs and with the power of EA's Animation Technology and obsessive, attention to detail, the lengths ...

What in the brony abomination
love it when my code crashes and I rebase to main and suddenly it works
means it wasn't my fault π
@carmine frigate can you make my little venom pony?
lol im outta free tries π
too bad that craiyon isn't that good, or i'm using it wrong π
Nah, I think craiyon is based on the more rudimentary older DALL-E versions, hence the vague results
Did you overlook the hands?
@zinc matrix if u really wunna cash in u say ur a landlord and some guy died from overdose in one of ur rooms and he left a bunch of those paintings π
cuz dead artists make more money
you can just print em on canvas and paint over em
I'm not super impressed with midjourney stuff tbh
it seems to work ok for some types of characters but that's about it
very hit or miss
helps a bit if u know how too google
like you have to point it too pools
a lot of ppl describe what they want but thats not how google search works π
Dall-e Mini seems to work fairly well based on describing it
BTW if you're industry veteran, does that mean you can discredit indie games like you're wearing genuine Supreme drip?
But yeah that's a good point, need to try using a more google search like phrase with Midjourney
well thats cuz google removes a bit of the extra stuff it cant do anything with
@quasi mantle no that's just called being a douchebag
Ah, I see...
peeks at #ue4-general
tell him he is outnumbered 1000 to 1 here
also ask him what games he worked on... most games are shit anyways π
You go there yourself lol
I don't really see anything particularly discrediting like you're wearing supreme drip in there tbh
:P
If it's about this guy with his sound system question... he just had a certain criteria for what he wanted Β―_(γ)_/Β―
well i would go there if a gave a shit about what he was saying π
but i dont so i wont
Batman must have a special makeup device for putting on the eye shadow
then remove it too?
must do
I swear I did see this device in a movie, she puts the thing on her face and it puts make up on. Was it 5th element?
building new pc is pain
how many LEDs
prices everywhere
3 fans from nzxt
wiring all the lighting was more difficult that wiring the rest of the PC for me lol
but rtx is something im looking forward to trying out
big gpus
its bigger than intel iris
is rtx still a thing?
i thought that was dropped hard by ... like every1
unless you use nvidia omniverse stuff
FSR is the footure
oh so i can just use the pc with those fans and an igpu?
should be able to, just make sure your mobo will actually fit that case
h7 flow works with 3080ti
its a tuf z690 ddr4 for motherboard
looks good to me
so the pc will work just fine with fans,igpu,ram + ssd, psu?
if the cpu has an igpu yup
i7-12700k
im thinking of ryzen 5 as well since it seems catered to gaming
well a Ryzen 5 certainly wont fit that mobo π
LOL why
intel chipsets have some benefits especially now their PCIE interface has caught up to AMDs
man this youtuber who crashed his Tesla, upgraded the brakes and didnt upgrade the brake fluid to racing spec, brakes fail and he went hard into a tyre barrier with no safety equipment at all. Lucky to be alive
im trying not to buy everything at once its way too pricey i think
what do u think are the essential parts that i need (3-4)
i meant like igpu,case with fans included
psu
ram,ssd
that should be fine right?
and i need the mobo as well
not all cpu have igpu
x.x
What witchcraft is this?!
thats the BP dragon
Seems like a terrible terrible idea lol
I'll bet 100 doges that Perforce will just throw a gigantic fit
for that kind of filename
lol
I think the prefix disturbs me more than the emoji
i will say this once again, we need ue to support this
I'm pretty sure BP_ prefix is recommended in style guides like Allar's :P
!8ball unicode is good?
@soft night, :8ball: Very doubtful.
!8ball metacode is good?
@soft night, :8ball: Yes β definitely.
!8ball is multiverse better than metaverse?
@pearl elk, :8ball: Cannot predict now.
did you try the nzxt site?
yes but its single fan
reddit says its bequiet light wings
but i have no idea which it is lol
by default it is yeah, that case comes with different front panels too, not all of them are mesh
like I said RGB is the hard part π

Oh hey it generated something kinda neat for my prompt
"A fantasy artwork of a ninja in style of Boris Vallejo"... I guess the fact that Vallejo's art contains a fair bit of skin explains the top right bare abs 
It's a pain to use because for some bizarre reason their entire system runs through open DIscord channels where you type commands to their bot with all the million other people trying to use it...
bottom right seems to be the only good enough one
imo
as in it doesn't looks too wrong from a 5 second glance
the silhouette or whatever is right i mean
Yeah I don't really feel Midjourney is quite on par with what I've seen from Dall-e 2
It's certainly higher fidelity than Dall-e Mini
well if you only look at best results i think midjourney isn't too bad
idk if dall e 2 has regular results, does it?
also to anyone interested, the other lorash is online!
you really wunna target the pools... if u want a big sword.. better use the word broadsword or claymore
Yeah you can see some prompts for it generate pretty good results, but it seems extremely unpredictable what you get
There's some people using incredibly detailed prompts, and other just put something super simple
fantasy is too broad
I'm trying to get it to do two ninjas atm but it's struggling to understand the concept
and Boris Vallejo might search 3 pools
incredibly large broadswordfish
so some Boris jeltsin might be in that ninja
I have no idea what a pool is lol
It got boris' style somewhat into it at least
It did worse with Syd Mead than Dall-e Mini did
search pools is how google search works
Im guessing the pony from before was mixed with Giger
so boris has its own pool that holds multiple pools and Boris Vallejo is 1 pool
yea the alien like one
the more green one was little pony alien facehugger
I still have no idea what a pool is supposed to be
This is literally the first time I hear someone using the word "pool" in context of google
:P
it trows stuff together so it doesnt search all
Well I have no idea how you're supposed to phrase it if not like that
If you type boris vallejo into google you aren't getting boris jeltsin lol
cuz it gets a hit in the boris pool to get a new pool
I have no idea what that means in context of phrasing it differently to the bot lol
I'll give it a go but I'm going to be surprised if it has any effect on the output lol
It seems a pretty awful system if you can't use a person's full name... if Boris Vallejo's last name was more generic like... Smith
You'd get nothing useful out of it lol
