yeah something like 2% of player causing 89% of bugs\

zinc matrix
#

Purely because the gameplay was awful

proud jay
#

or at least reported

quasi mantle
#

DNF'01 leak?

zinc matrix
#

The text to speech was funny tho lol

zinc matrix
#

So d fe at this game I’m making with some friends seems to be looking like star citizen one of my friends said XD

quasi mantle
zinc matrix
#

Yeah

#

That game is absolutely terrible but the text to speech is hilarious

quasi mantle
#

Seemed kinda awful for UE3 game

zinc matrix
#

If you play it turn on text to speech

quasi mantle
#

But I feel like it's more of edutainment than a game

zinc matrix
#

It’s very funny

zinc matrix
#

Prob right

#

But still it’s choppy af and buggy af lol

quasi mantle
#

Edutainment titles never hold high bar for game development

zinc matrix
#

Fair

#

Anyways what’s your guys opinions on liberty prime and vultron

#

No they are giant robots lol

#

These 2 guys

fleet tangle
#

The voltron film was awesome

zinc matrix
#

I’m assuming it was animated

fleet tangle
#

Back when I was like 8

#

It was.

zinc matrix
#

Good it would not be good live action lol

fleet tangle
#

They're making a live action I think.

zinc matrix
#

God that’s got 2 options for a live action

#

Make it like mortal kombat from last year and it be really good or do something like fucking power rangers and make it awful

#

Now I’m not dissing power rangers I’m just saying the giant robots always look like shit in it

As part of this transition, the UOL site will be retired on August 31, 2022. Information that is not transferred from the UOL site to the new EDC will be deleted and no longer available through UOL.

#

So they did that whole bp ninja thing to get people to use UOL

#

and now they're doing this?

#

I mean I don't have a problem with it myself but... it feels like their whole learning/documentation/etc. management is just... not there

how can something like this run on low hardware skelewhy

Sad if we don't get that meltdown

I wonder what I should do next for my career 🤔

#

Switched on "looking for work" on linkedin out of curiosity to see what kind of stuff recruiters would send

#

Nothing particularly interesting tbh, I don't really want to work with PHP lol

deep copper
#

what happened to the game you were working on with that, dude

deep copper
foggy path
#

Yep

deep copper
#

why are they so much into making something work well then destroy it

foggy path
#

Because they clearly don't have any kind of real roadmap for it

#

Probably get a new manager who wants to do it from a clean slate

deep copper
#

it feels like someone made it with 2AM Motivation but next day just didn't had the energy to handle it

foggy path
#

then the manager goes onto do other stuff and now they have another new manager who wants to again do a clean slate...

#

that's how it often goes when this stuff happens

deep copper
#

that's so sad

#

think about those who worked to make it

foggy path
#

Big corp problems :P

deep copper
#

well, better than carrying over bad code i guess

just spent an hour writing a technical letter for work, somehow closed it without saving it and somehow never mashed ctrl s the entire time, someone please ridicule me

deep copper

i can't go on without hitting ctrl s as a muscle memory after every single action

#

I accidentally added too much ketchup to my fries. If only I used sauce control.

deep copper

also, technical letter, goodluck rewriting 😢

rare mauve

it's been about ten years since i lost more than around 30 seconds of work from a crash or other accident due to how much i mash ctrl-s. i don't know what's wrong with me. MORE SHAME

wait you are hojo, you should have about 5 clones here, use them!

with some weird extension

I haven't lost any work since I first installed Perforce back in 2014. I have lost my mind a few times since tho

noble plaza
rare mauve
#

been looking for those temp files but everywhere is empty so far 😄

fathom wadi
#

yeah and keep a backup of the server on external drive

I just can't be assed to set up a sever again, if only there was a Dicker container

noble plaza
fathom wadi
#

not at all

timber viper
#

check autorecover path

noble plaza
#

Hmm, if only they offered ARM builds so I could shunt it to a Raspberry pi or something

fathom wadi
timber viper
#

yeah its extension is .asd

noble plaza
#

Might just run it locally though

noble plaza
# fathom wadi

Whoa you weren't kidding. Not used to software that doesn't run shady background tasks constantly lol

fathom wadi
#

just remember to backup the local one external. You never know but I haven't had a p4 crash or anything in 8 years

rare mauve
#

yeah, that system failed me, folder was empty shrug

timber viper
#

wait

rare mauve
#

thanks though pepehug

timber viper
#

@rare mauve those files are hidden

#

enable hidden file visibility on windows files

rare mauve
#

i always view hidden files

timber viper
#

damn

#

fwiw for last chance maybe you can search with files has .asd extension with Everything or a similar software

#

i never used them but heard they are fast and working

rare mauve
#

i'll just rewrite it if i was stupid enough to not hit ctrl s once then i was probably doing everything else wrong anyway

fathom wadi
#

We won !

deep copper
#

maybe it made that asd file but removed it once you closed it, maybe use soke file recovery tool idk

#

m*

deep copper
fathom wadi
#

no it probably uses a hidden retinal scan and DNa kit whilst absorbing some of your life-force to feed the child labour industry instead. But its a win !

deep copper
#

oddly enough, if you try interpreting it, it sounds believable

#

you do become more trackable and spend your life's time on it

#

i think

fathom wadi
#

considering you have to login to oculus, use a credit card to buy games and such, they already have your info

#

being intrinsically linked to Facebook was just so they could exert power over the users when it came to behaviour I think

#

maybe they were just being greedy and saving money on secondary login servers 😄

noble plaza
#

Damn I could get basically an x86 Raspberry Pi and run P4 on that. Need to make the project available to a friend too eventually

rare mauve
#

Perforce might not run on those

noble plaza
#

No? How come?

I had it hosted on a 1 CPU 2GB RAM Droplet, it was fine. I have to look into these more because I have a feeling there'd be some dumb restriction somewhere

Cheesecake would be fine.

is pizza considered a cheesecake?

maybe a pan pizza would be a cake?

pearl elk

well lemon meringue pie can be a cheesecake

#

so why not a pizza pie 😛

deep glen

god, i havent had pan pizza in ages

#food would probably tell us to go to #lounge if we talk about if pizza is cake there

actually this reminds me, there's a commercial in GTA 2 I think for a shop called "pizza-cake" lol

Musk? Dude prolly will get ton of money even with all that suing. Pump & dump as they say.

regal pecan
#

under - a reference to his lack of family planning

pearl elk
#

he wanted out because everyones stock dropped dramatically just after the sale price was set

#

I think he agreed to $51 per share and it dropped to $38, even lower atm

regal pecan
#

I thought the stock dropped after he expressed doubts about its worth, but I can't say I was paying close attention

pearl elk
#

well that could be part of why it dropped but it was a larger market trend, pretty much all tech stocks were trending down

#

not sure why he agreed to $51 a share because a few months earlier it was trading near $30

#

lots of doom and gloom by investors atm because the covid bubble wore off

#

omg X is down 80% year over year... but compared to 2019/2020 everyone is fine 😛

deep copper
pearl elk
#

yeah I dont think it was about free speech like he made out, if it was then he would have a moral imperative which would trump other reasons

deep copper
#

now that you mention it, he did say it was for free speech 🤔

#

and he wanted to either make a new platform, or buy this

pearl elk
#

it could be related to bonuses he wanted to give himself, he did say he wanted to get rid of bots so if there were no good numbers initially he couldnt in the future say oh Ive been instrumental in achieving this many less bots

#

he has those sorts of performance bonuses with Tesla thats why he keeps getting stock dropped on him

deep copper
pearl elk
#

the whole thing was odd from the get go, him addressing Twitter staff, wanting all this data that they eventually gave in and handed to him all before the ink was dry

#

Id be pissed if I were Twitter because he has insider information now with only a NDA to stop him

regal pecan
#

Could be he was after that, plus expecting to get away without paying up for breach by proving they breached first.

deep copper
#

so he can act with that info however he wants, that's quite a trickster!

#

wait does that means, he will make a new platform with that info in mind 🤔

pearl elk
#

thing that is most odd to me though is his motives, he's one of Twitters biggest users to why try to back stab them

#

he could easily move over to Truth Social 😛

#

well thats if the conservatives wernt bashing him as well as progressives

deep copper
#

yeah i don't see a reason for him to do this, maybe he has a reason but this makes him look innocent and twitter the ones who broke contract

pearl elk
#

best comment Ive seen was "wait youre telling me Elon is "pulling out"?"

deep copper
#

he did at the last moment

#

either way, curious to see where this goes!

#

reality is quite dramatic

pearl elk
#

not as dramatic as a former world leader being assassinated

deep copper
#

yeah, that's kinda sad

pearl elk
#

I really hope the Japanese Defence dont find any links to CPP or Russia, even just a hint atm could be enough to turn asia into a war zone

deep copper
#

well, considering some parts of china called the killer a hero..

#

but why would russia kill an inactive leader

regal pecan
#

why would anyone kill an inactive leader

pearl elk
#

not so inactive tbh, he only left for health reasons, still a powerful force in Japanese politics

deep copper
#

he WAS giving a speech at a campaign 🤔

pearl elk
#

if he were inactive he wouldnt have been giving a political speech on the eve of an election

deep copper
#

and elections on 10th i think idk

pearl elk
#

soft target, easier than going after a leader

deep copper
#

poor guy

#

why don't these leaders where bullet proof stuff all the time btw

#

waer*

#

wear*

pearl elk
#

well he was still leader of Japans largest political party as far as I know

#

but yeah, I really hope it was just some rogue Japanese person not some sort of plot

Here have some slightly cursed AI art

deep copper
pearl elk
#

deep copper
#

regal pecan
#

I'm going with "it would be NSFW if the AI knew what it was drawing"

broken sigil
#

supposed to be anime girl in a "biopunk" style 😅

deep copper
#

that's bio enough yeah

#

an ai having trouble figuring out what part goes where makes me appreciate how even infant humans can draw proper stick figure

quasi mantle
pearl elk
#

so thats the perfect female body dimensions of the future

#

extra kardashian they call it

quasi mantle
#

I feel like Midjourney does sucks at imagining body

#

Every attempt I got with full body were horrendous

pearl elk
#

it may not have enough figure drawings in its memories

#

either that or its spaghettifying it

broken sigil
deep copper
#

the ai really needs to stop focusing on details and look at the bigger picture.. or so is what a human who draws like that should do

regal pecan
#

It's up to MidJourney's dev team to shape the AI. They've hit on something good for aesthetic results. At least partly, it seems, because they let the user give it specific instructions. I wonder whether they'll have better luck getting the AI to recognize structure, or letting users define the kind of structure they're looking for.

pearl elk
#

I feel like prompts arnt going to solve the problem, I think it needs to be done with images

#

artists should be able to follow a more emotional pathway rather than having to delve into tech and natural language programming

cursive crypt
#

Painters becoming writers.

cursive crypt
#

That aint bad.

pearl elk
#

it is subjective, personally I dont like warhol or dali

cursive crypt
#

StartJourney is kinda narrow on art style. You seen 10, you seen them all.

#

Art is subjective, agreed.

broken sigil
#

what is StartJourney lol

#

do we now have EndJourney too lol

pearl elk
#

I guess to make the AI generate specific styles art does need to be broken down into some form of logical categories but that doesnt leave room for actual creativity like making new styles

cursive crypt
#

I think that their annotation that they have yet things to cover, before being EndJourney.

pearl elk
#

GotoJourney

broken sigil
#

oh I thought it was a legit thing lol

cursive crypt
#

Nah, nah, lol

broken sigil
#

I mean I've seen some insane stuff from MJ
My stuff usually all looks similar because I like that style but what other people are generating is very different than mine

cursive crypt
#

All that Visual AI kinda have momentum last few years. It will develop further.

cursive crypt
pearl elk
#

I think AI could be used to generate styles but it would have to learn art on its own not from humans, they do this with materials research, they let the AI come up with the same things humans have to see how long it takes

regal pecan
#

AI can do styles fairly easy. Palette and spatial relationships are fairly discrete.

pearl elk
#

bit like I Robot movie, it can draw a recreation really well but it has no real creativity

cursive crypt
#

Art is based on experience, frequently subconscious one. My view on that.
AI at best now can only mimic what is fed.

regal pecan
#

But a hand can be drawn in many ways, rarely alike.

pearl elk
#

look at some painting styles though, there are people who swing big squirt bottles on ropes lol

#

there are otehrs who bath themselves in paint and roll around on the canvas

cursive crypt
#

There are so many forms... where is the 2d pixel art AI, or the manga. Manga generator.

pearl elk
#

futurism and cubism are two of my favs, I dont see them being easily replicatable

#

pearl elk
#

Im kinda hoping machines will come up with a post futurism tbh

regal pecan

#

So Rage's development build is supposedly 1 TB

pearl elk
#

cursive crypt
#

never expected there is upper bound, even less with nanite. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

pearl elk
#

midjourney nanite when?

cursive crypt
#

They need AI to generate their textures on the fly.

pearl elk
#

who need textures, I want all the polys

or it's not, it's only the sub parts of it pushed to ai

cursive crypt
regal pecan
deep copper
#

i want to teach it how to make guidelines when drawing

regal pecan
#

It's not intelligent. It can't truly learn from abstract input.

deep copper
#

so it can make body

regal pecan
#

That's a job for general intelligence. Assuming we don't start calling random things "general intelligence" for marketing reasons, as happened with AI.

it was fine for me and my pc is shite. I did run the project on an SSD tho

yeah mines on the nvme, wondering if it's some of the plugins i enabled in the engine not liking it

doubt it unless its using them. Could profile it and see where the hitch is coming from.

#

Debugging those can be pretty annoying because so many random things affect it on modern PC's

#

and things like Chrome and Firefox randomly begin chugging your system down with no warning

#

Every time I start seeing weird lag I always first check chrome and ff perf use and it's almost always one of them :P

#

I leave them in the background like 99% of the time and it's so sporadic when they start causing it that I have no idea why it happens

if trypophobia applied to sparkles, blue man's already posted a hundred of them 😛

Funny, I was wondering if Midjourney would trigger trypophobia yesterday

regal pecan
#

Maybe you can't type trypophobia, but blackberry eyeballs...

night grove
#

I saw someone doing some prompts about mastectomy and was surprised that word was allowed.

regal pecan
#

OR that's why midjourney is so bad at eyes.

#

It was really really good at eyes in dev, and it knew it.

#

hypothetically

#

Is midjourney bad at limbs generally or is it just Blue Man's prompts?

broken sigil
#

It is yeah (should improve tho)

regal pecan
#

I'm wondering if they've biased it against phallic protrusions, but that ends up preventing fingers and shins.

I posted a few earlier that looked like pirates

deep copper

Lol

deep copper
regal pecan
#

That's what I'm thinking. It seems to be more than just using a sanitized data set, so it could be overly strong censorship.

deep copper

so THAT'S why they are doing these restricted beta tests

"okay we made it good, but i am afraid it's too good for this world"

soft night
#

the bees when used feremons they dont sting you

regal pecan
#

It's related to those chat AIs from Microsoft that reduce to profanity and conspiracy theories, or to the facial recognition with racial biases. Bad content happens often, but we self-censor it in public. Even sanitized, self-censored content will have borderline cases, and MidJourney (the company) wants to avoid bad content at a 100% rate.

that is natural for bees when you have those qeen bee

Any of you not working on a (personal) game, and why arent you?

#

or better way to word it
why arent you interested in making your own game/project?

primal summit

I am interested, but there's that nasty tripod to keep balanced:
time
money
other interesting stuff to do too

deep glen

imho that counts as working on a game/your own game.

#

@deep glen I wish I could give up my day job and do game dev full time, but I have a mortgage to pay 😓

deep glen
#

yea, i still have some things I need to pay off myself. and as a graphics person i'd need to rely on a (really good) coder

#

so I need to spend cash

clever flame
#

it's the opposite for me, i can do graphics but there's always enough coding work to be done it leads to burnout trying to be a jack of all trades

deep glen
#

yup, hehe

clever flame
#

@sand oxide I just take my glasses off then everything is SD 😄

deep glen
#

funny thing is, I dont wanna spend even 1 second on any art until the game is done and playable from begin to end XD

  • said the artist.
clever flame
#

@deep glen It makes sense to me, I always work on the premise of placeholder content, the game mechanics can inform your story and aesthetics

deep glen
#

yea that, but why waste money/time on visuals if you arent sure the game is fun, or if you can actually finish the game.

#

yea, that could make sense

#

depends on the game/gameplay of course

My biggest problem with projects is scope
