12:00 AM
And linux has thrown its first fail at me
took longer than normal though
and fixed
it'll get there, one day
 
user4704
And it is?
 
?
 
user4704
What was the failure?
 
Oh, it was a dependancies problem
 
HEY OMG
u were right
 
12:03 AM
Guessed at the correct RPM and viola it went away
Verities?
 
i kept researching and found this

Q: Collada model faces not displaying correctly in three.js

user1565123After importing a collada model into three.js, some of the model's faces are only visible from the inside of the model and not from the outside. How can I fix the problem with the faces in question? Is it possible to have the model's faces visible from both sides?

 
@OMGtechy i doubt it
 
Ah the double sided flag I showed you
I had no idea what it did, but I can pretend I did now.
 
u are now my master i must learn ur ways
before i was going to follow jon
 
Google-fu is your new language
 
12:04 AM
but u have shown me the light
 
Hey @IcyDefiance, looks like I'm starting a religion.
 
i see other theres a church of luigi on steam
 
nah, it's not a religion unless there's something supernatural. you started something more like taoism. :P
 
supernatural is that i actually researched something correctly
 
I know nothing of Taoism
only its name
 
12:13 AM
it's a chinese philosophy about how to live your life
 
wait nvm the question didnt help me :(
 
@IcyDefiance a little like Buddhism? Or am I totally in the wrong area.
Also, linux fucked up again
ha
 
some like buddhism, but buddhism isn't just advice on how to live. it also has a lot of mystic crap, supernatural beings called "devas", etc. taoism is nothing but a set of advice.
ancient wisdom, basically
 
sounds like something I'd like to look into
 
hey i thought we werent allowed to discuss religion
 
12:16 AM
it's pretty cool reading. I don't agree with all of it, but it's all good to at least consider.
 
now that i think about i should make a account for the christianty stack exchange
 
@UselessQuestionMaster me and @IcyDefiance have special rights
 
i should had thought about that
so r u like a admin
cool
 
lol no, he's messing with you
 
12:18 AM
@IcyDefiance but we do! :D
 
religion isn't taboo here, but it's a very touchy subject. going off the deep end isn't cool. not that I'm entirely innocent of that...
 
i think its time for me to actually read the chat room rules
 
I haven't ha
 
hey omg what file extension should i try instead of collada for my unicorn
 
Common sense above all
 
12:20 AM
it appears to be a problem with the collada loader
 
@UselessQuestionMaster .superunicorntime
 
most of the rules aren't set in stone. common sense and remaining (kind of) professional are the guidelines.
 
:( okay then means use google
 
@UselessQuestionMaster file extentions mean nothing, just use whatever you want
they're just a hint as to what their contents are
 
:/ no but the loader for those files for three.js seem to be the problem
 
12:28 AM
Google translate in chrome is great man
I can read spanish documentation for LXDE and Fedora
 
Cool i can read spanish documents in spanish too
Wait Fedora uses LXDE too?
if it does than i might consider usign that instead of Lubuntu
 
Afternoon all.
 
Hello fellow pony
XD
am waiting for someone to react to the pony part
wait a sec u said afternoon
 
@UselessQuestionMaster How do you want me to react?
Okay evening.
 
idk the reactions from youtube are funny
 
12:52 AM
@UselessQuestionMaster it uses Gnome by default
 
Hello all!
@OMGtechy Hi!
 
@PsychOPhobiA hey! although I'm about to leave :P
 
I Created a button that kinda works
And by the way. In python It is OnButtonClick
 
Sounds like a good name!
 
@OMGtechy I also am planning to be involved in CS and Web Development along with being a writer.
I will be going to Stanford at the end of my middle school year if I get all A+'s. I can't wait to be away from home :)!

1:04 AM
@PsychOPhobiAbe careful not to take on too much, but good on you. Start with the A+'s and spend your remaining time doing CS related things if you like :)
 
2:02 AM
@PsychOPhobiA what programming languages are you learning?
 
Hello every 1
 
@stizzle84 hi every 2
 
Every 2?
 
Wht do u mean
Well im off to bed goodnight
 
2:14 AM
goodday
 
Well ill stay longer
I just had a pixie stick
Giant
 
@AttackingHobo does one really need to learn any programming language? after learning c++?
does one even have any time left? to learn anything new?
 
Do u know wht pixie sticks r
 
@doge nope
 
2:17 AM
They r flavord suger
 
@Ali.S yeah. Learn some other languages to do things that you could write in c++ but faster, and use that time to learn more or to make more things
 
Just suger but flavord
 
@AttackingHobo but I thought learning C++ itself, would take for eternity
 
Hey guyss
 
@hasherr sup
 
2:31 AM
Not much, Wardy is letting me play around with his server
or at least my stuff on it
 
2:43 AM
@hasherr hmm hmmm
 
Pretty fun :D
 
3:33 AM
Hola mis peeps.
 
@AidanMueller sup
 
I just installed a really cool mouse theme.
 
@AidanMueller :/
 
@AttackingHobo ? What's with the face?
 
Whats with the mouse theme?
 
3:42 AM
It just looks cool.
 
3:56 AM
hi
 
Bye.
Get out of here!
:D
JK
 
that is hilarius
what games are u guys working on?
 
Pro Feel Golf
 
ipad game?
do you work with opengl
 
4:18 AM
ipad/iphone
Unity, so we don't touch the 3d stuff deeply
 
Shoot. I wish I had one less reputation.
I should go downvote a bad answer.
Just for a screenshot.
 
MLM
Happy birthday:
 
@MLM ?
aoeu
What did you do?
Did you change it with dev tools?
 
MLM
@AidanMueller Nothing, just got you the screenshot
yep, easy as pie
 
Dev tools is cheating though.
Eh, who cares.
Cool though.
 
4:24 AM
:O
I'm gonna tell on you
 
@SpartanDonut Tell for what?
 
Nevermind
 
anyone have experience with ray tracing?
 
Casting or tracing?
Casting:
 
4:31 AM
casting is a subset of tracing actually
i think u are using tracing to refer to ray marching
 
Tracing:
 
did u make that
 
Yeah totally.
I work for ea.
 
nice
 
I work in the purple unicorn department.
We make dreams come true.
LOL.
@BlazArt Nah, I didn't really make that.
 
4:33 AM
wow that's awesome
 
It was on wikipedia.
 
Someday i want to work in that department just like you
you're my role model
 
Heh.
I can put in a good word for you.
@BlazArt Did you make this?
That is so cool.
 
lol wtf is that
why would u ask me that
 
If you did, you are totally hired.
That is so realistic.
 
4:35 AM
in that case, yes i made it
 
The grass is so green.
 
Katamari!
YOU INVENTED KATAMARI? :O
 
Speaking of ray tracing. I just rendered this.
 
What?
No man that's just his amazing art spartan.
 
4:37 AM
@AttackingHobo why are you so awesome these days?
 
@AttackingHobo srs or joke?
 
I remember not so long ago I was just stacking blocks in unity
 
@BlazArt huh?
 
@BlazArt srs. he's been doing some really cool 3D stuffs lately
@AttackingHobo he thinks you're trolling because that's been the mood of the room in the last 15 minutes
 
@AttackingHobo The wood texture is good, but too shiny. Add bump mapping.
 
4:38 AM
Or suspects it at least
 
@AidanMueller zoom that bitch in look at the pores in the wood
I thought he was trolling. lol
 
lol
 
@SpartanDonut also, thanks. Didn't really think it was that awesome myself. but :D
 
@AttackingHobo Ah yes. Is that blender?
 
4:39 AM
are those polygons that you are ray tracing?
 
Could you show me the nodes that you used to make that wood texture?
 
@BlazArt yes. as apposed to what?
@AidanMueller no nodes, used BI
 
I am not too bad at blender, but...oh NVM.
I can't get wood right.
 
Here is a preview animation rendered at low q
 
so it's not real time?
 
4:40 AM
@BlazArt ha. no
 
@AttackingHobo keyframed or physics based?
(or something else?)
 
took a minute to render it @BlazArt
@SpartanDonut physics
 
I thought maybe so. Otherwise awesome eye on the animation. The wobble looks really good
Physics will help make that so of course
 
@BlazArt For reelz, that is my work ^
 
4:42 AM
I can vouch for that ^
Seen it before
 
@SpartanDonut it does. but I had to do a good amount of tweaking to get it right
 
I have done cooler, but I feel like this was one of the least automated.
 
@AttackingHobo awesome. way to not settle for "good enough" in that case :D
 
This is actually my best modeling work:
 
@AidanMueller hmmmm not too bad
 
4:44 AM
@AttackingHobo Also, this is why you use cycles render.
It gives better results.
 
so none of you do real time ray tracing?
noobs
 
Honestly it reminds me of early Pixar... I think that's a compliment
I've done ray something for collision detection... lol
I get the terms confused
 
little low poly on a few things though @AidanMueller
 
@SpartanDonut The difference between me and pixar, is that they can model anything, and add more detail. Then they take that, and see how many objects they can put in the scene without the render farm catching on fire.
 
4:45 AM
@AidanMueller add some bevel modifier to those things
 
@AttackingHobo LOL. You know why?
I was modeling a pencil.
Then I was like, "I should build a kitchen to put this in".
 
@AidanMueller trust me. bevel modifier on those counters and blender it will look 1000x better
lol
lol blender in blender
 
ohohohohohohohoho
 
Well it was supposed to slightly resemble my kitchen.
Heh, I guess I did put a blender in blender.
It is supposed to look like a vitamix.
@AttackingHobo But will it blend?
 
@AidanMueller I gotta learn more cycles....
 
4:48 AM
I just realized that my handwriting sucks when I use a mouse. Just look at that shopping list.
 
At least a bicycle. Maybe a tricycle I suppose
 
HAHA.
YER FUNY
@AttackingHobo With cycles, the nodes are sort of primitive. You have to learn how to combine them.
 
@AidanMueller here is the wood texture mat i.imgur.com/wGtDakw.png
 
For the tiles, I combined a brick node (for which I changed the properties to make it look like tile) with a noise/cloud texture.
 
@AidanMueller hmmmmm. Cycles just seems so much harder to mess around with
I have on more than one occasion crashed blender cause I messed with a setting that seemed to be exponential
 
4:51 AM
how can u say you ray trace if you use blender, that's like saying you engineered a car because you brought one
 
randomly adjusting stuff to see what it does, and BLLLLLPPPP crashed
@BlazArt so if I downloaded a realtime ray tracing engine and put shit inside it, im somehow better?
 
@AttackingHobo I think it can be easier.
@BlazArt Because it has a ray tracing engine.
 
ok let me ask a different question
have you ever coded a ray tracer
 
@BlazArt No.
But you should be able to find plenty of docs on the web.
@BlazArt What do you want the tracer for?
Games?
The thing is that you can't really use tracers for games.
That picture of the pencil took 20 minutes to render.
Although that's a bit more advanced than basic tracing.
The picture that @AttackingHobo put up would probably take like 2 seconds to render on my computer.
 
@AidanMueller it is used in some games, but not as the entire rendering process
@AidanMueller I can give you the blend file....
 
4:58 AM
Well yeah, I suppose rendering a few objects wouldn't hurt.
 
Its used for Indirect lighting passes
with large blurs usualy
its gonna take longer than you expect
that marble is using up most of the time
its way to big for what I needed
 
@AttackingHobo I don't need the blend file. It may take longer. But my computer isn't that good. The point is that it would be horrible fps.
 
5:20 AM
I think that my mouse would look cool on arch.
@AttackingHobo BTW, all of my textures are procedural.
 
5:55 AM
 
 
1 hour later…
7:08 AM
@AidanMueller FUCK CYCLES
 
 
1 hour later…

Morning.

Q: Customisable Canned Responses - shall we make a Gist for common comments?

BlueAs an addendum to this topic I am asking if it is time we made a Gist repo to fill up on some common responses for commenting on different post types. Such as new users not knowing "question format", "length of content" on questions, "Welcome to the site" comments etc. Just to get us started her...

 
@JoshPetrie There we go:
Oh dat timing
 
morn
 
Hey Ali!!
Long time man.
 
hm??
I was here, almost all the time
but I think I didn't see you around in the past few days
 
8:44 AM
(I mean myself)

So many sodding edits:

Q: State Management [Replaying the Game, Switching States]

RED21How to effectively switch states?Whenever I press the replay button, the two states shows alternatively (win & play). I believe that was an infinite loop but Eclipse does not print any errors. When I tried this, it results to null.Thus, ending the game. Could this be the answer? Here is my cod...

The question was fine until the 12th edit to make it into a different question.
 
9:11 AM
(some) people are very nice, I wouldn't have bothered myself reading all the chunks of code at all. +1 to all who tried to help this guy.
 
Well it was successful but then he decided to edit it beyond recognition.
 
actually some are way too nice for their own good
 
9:31 AM
hey fellas
anyone work with opengl ?
 
everyone did at some point, directly or indirectly
 
user92578
First day of highschool done. It's going to be different
 
highschool hehehe...
 
9:48 AM
lol typi just started highschool
I'll have to apologize for saying you're a lousy programmer
ignorance and inexperience aside, you're still ok for your age
 
everyone did?
maybe if you're in this room
though I meant directly
 
ugh, I forgot how hot southern romania is compared to the northern side
mornings there would max out at 17*C, here it's 22*C and today the temperature is expected to climb up to 37*C under shade (not sure if this is the proper term)
 
@BlazArt chat is slow ATM. I believe if you try giving a shot at afternoon/evening, you will surely get more response back.
 
@BlazArt Lasse
Mick
 
user92578
I think that the chat is slow amost always I'm on
 
user92578
9:56 AM
Maybe I'm the cause?
 
@Tyyppi_77 YES of course not. correlation != causation.
 
user92578
@AlexM. Apologize accepted, I un-ignored you now
 
well if you un-ignored him now, then how did you not ignore his apology before. It makes no sense @Tyyppi_77
 
user92578
I just saw his little image at the users and decided to check what he had to say
 
10:16 AM
@Tyyppi_77 First day of highschool?
 
user92578
Yeah
 
user92578
I think that's like our "lukio"
 
Well fuck, I forgot those existed.
 
Morning.
 
@Tyyppi_77 apology*

opera seems to be a really decent browser from what I've seen so far
I mean it works well
 
12:03 PM
It is the one I use everyday, switched from Firefox
Love the speed of that browser
