1:39 AM
I know for world settings that homogenous volumes render faster, is there a way to specify materials as homogenous? Or are they by default?
 
1:53 AM
WOW! I got it from 20 minutes to 3 minutes!!
 
Yeah, textured volumes are slow
 
2:09 AM
Very . . .
 
@NoviceInDisguise hi
 
i've been dead all day
 
how've you been?
 
2:17 AM
decent
 
did you finish the pilot?
 
Not really . . . been moving on, should finish the gloves
 
I still think you should add some asymmetry.
 
Probably eventually
 
probably almost not really eventually or for real?
@NoviceInDisguise cause "Probably eventually" sounds a little sketchy.
 
2:25 AM
@RadishoftheOpera I have more critical things to add before the week ends, I have literally 6 days before I need to start my final render.
But if I get to it, I certainly will add it
 
@NoviceInDisguise !
only six?
 
do you want helps rendering?
we couold set up a network render.
 
Hmmm . . . might be worth it if you don't mind!
 
lets try... i've never done it before.
it looks fairly simple though
 
2:29 AM
ok . . . I never did it before either, I guess it is as good a time as any to learn
 
@NoviceInDisguise my end looks like that.
 
I set mine up as master, right?
 
i guess we would need IP's... maybe we could use GCF's since thats less private.
@NoviceInDisguise yes
 
Hmm . . . yeah IP's are necessary
 
i just crashed mine
 
2:32 AM
:-|
 
re-starting
@GiantCowFilms can we use your server?
please??!?!!?!?!
@NoviceInDisguise you don't want to give out your IP right?
 
Not really . . .
 
i can give out mine, but i don't have the .blend
and it's probably too much hassle to try and exchange that.
so we'll have to wait for GCF.
@GiantCowFilms I need you now!
yoo hoo!
 
it is 162M
 
!
yeah.. no
 
2:37 AM
yah . . .
800k verts, then textures, etc
 
uuuughgh.. i still feel like i've got a hangover.
 
What did you do to yourself?
 
...
i might have a hangover...
 
oh . . .
 
just kidding
 
2:40 AM
Good!
 
for starters i ran a 5k, then i stayed up late for like, 3 nights in a row watching corny Chinese movies with my brother, then i feel asleep in the car wich always makes me sick, then the police man woke me up for bad driving, and now i just got home to my family singing opera.
@NoviceInDisguise lol, you really thought i had a hangover? i'm 3 years to young to even drink.
 
no
@RadishoftheOpera Your family sings opera? I feel sorry for you :P
 
@NoviceInDisguise they don't, which makes it even worse
@NoviceInDisguise GCF would've fallen for it...
 
@RadishoftheOpera They just try to? THat is even worse :/
 
@NoviceInDisguise tell me about it
 
2:46 AM
Violin is bad too . . .
 
@NoviceInDisguise violin is the worst
well no...
bagpipes
bagpipes are the pits
 
lol, I was literally just typing that
 
i swear, i must be allergic to bagpipe music, it drives me insane
pardon me, not music...
 
It is one of those things that is really good if done precisely correct and drowned out by enough other instruments, otherwise . . . deadly
 
there's another word for it, but i've been banned from saying it by @GiantCowFilms
 
2:49 AM
Lots of words . . . some beginning with $
 
@NoviceInDisguise like cooking puffer-fish, do it wrong, and they're poisonous.
 
@NoviceInDisguise $almonella.
 
Sure . . .
 
$ure
$alty $ea $ailors $inging $inatra
 
2:50 AM
Oh man . . . that is awful
 
i wonder if they get sinatra XM on the pacific ocean.
i wonder if sinatra ever played bagpipes.
i wonder if pufferfish are attracted to bagpipes.
 
Are you ok?
 
$uffering $uccotash!
@NoviceInDisguise no
 
Good
I'm not either
 
@NoviceInDisguise whats wrong? you were fine 37 minutes and 8 seconds ago..
 
2:54 AM
No . . .
 
38.48
40.12
 
thats how long i's been since you were doing decent, but now you're not okay!
don't turn to drugs kids!
talk to a qualified counsellor if you experience mood swings!
 
@RadishoftheOpera So what did I say then?
 
42 mins ago, by NoviceInDisguise
decent
 
3:00 AM
ok as in normal
decent as in doing well
 
7 mins ago, by NoviceInDisguise
Are you ok?
7 mins ago, by NoviceInDisguise
I'm not either
 
I'm not ok/normal, but I am well
 
translates "I'm doing fine but that's not normal"?
 
I never was normal
 
normal is what you ussually are.
if you normally aren't, then thats not unnormal
"not mainstream! Extreme!"
 
3:02 AM
Im not a normal person's normal . . .
 
@NoviceInDisguise so whats normals then?
 
WHat is normal?
 
@NoviceInDisguise normal people run the incline without thier shirts on.
and most of them work in the food industry.
 
?
I don't run on an incline, and I think shirts are for wearing . . .
 
the vast majority of them are overweight.
@NoviceInDisguise google "Pikes Peak Incline"
 
3:04 AM
Oh, people run all the way up Pikes peak?!
that is one heck of a long ways!
 
@NoviceInDisguise no, the incline is only 1 mile, but it's straight up the side of the gorge, so short people can't participate.
 
but normal people run up shirtless... we counted
 
Whoa! THat is one big hill!!
 
there was one guy who did it 21 times, up and down, in one day for his Birthday.
 
3:07 AM
Moron . . .
 
then he nearly died of a hernia and the Manitou rescue squad had to get him
 
I imagine!
 
i've only done it twice in one day, and that was like living in... @GiantCowFilms ban word
 
Yeah, I imagine
 
but my sister's really into it so that's what we do every other weekend in summer.
 
3:10 AM
Worse things you could do
 
lol, @GiantCowFilms is gonna be so ticked with all these pings
@NoviceInDisguise like go to the top?
@GiantCowFilms are you mad???
@RadishoftheOpera done that 3 times
 
The top is a nice place. Try running a mile up there . . .
 
@NoviceInDisguise not enough air, and legendarily dirty bathrooms, but the doughnuts are well worth it.
 
Yeah. There is almost no air, I was sucking wind like crazy with a very short jog
 
super crowded cause of PPHW and cog railway
 
3:13 AM
PPHW . . .
 
Pikes Peak High Way
anyhow, i'm gonna sleep this off. bye
 
oh yes, we took an old ford E-350 van up there
@RadishoftheOpera CYA
 
 
5 hours later…
8:38 AM

Q: Event.type TEXTINPUT, what's the purpose?

TomowanIn blender documentation I found TEXTINPUT event type. I couldn't find any information about it. How it works? When can we use it? Is it only for game engine or can we use it in common scripts?

weird.
 
 
5 hours later…
1:58 PM
@RadishoftheOpera no...
@RadishoftheOpera Sure....
@NoviceInDisguise I'm happy to help with network rendering :D
@RadishoftheOpera And you are asking me that when you had that conversation...???
 
 
1 hour later…
3:18 PM
@GiantCowFilms which conversation? we had like, 5.
 
All at once
 
@RadishoftheOpera Exactly my point!
Anyways, what do you need with my server?
 
Host network render (use it as the client I think). My machine would be master (has the .blend), then we could connect slaves through the client.
 
@GiantCowFilms we could use it as a client so NID doesn't need to give his IP
@NoviceInDisguise I found you
 
@NoviceInDisguise Okay... 'cause my actual server won't work, but I think we can pass stuff through
@RadishoftheOpera Ah okay... how do we go about dong that
 
3:30 PM
@GiantCowFilms exactly, it'll just be syncing everything
 
@RadishoftheOpera Okay
@NoviceInDisguise You can also just give me your render... with a working GPU it probably won't take more then 3 hours
cya later
 
@GiantCowFilms specially if I put all my machines on it!
@NoviceInDisguise except I can't see the cow.
wait... found it
 
@GiantCowFilms at 160+mb maybe not . . .
Probably will be near .2 gigabytes by the time I'm done
 
3:56 PM
now i feel like a stalker. :/
@NoviceInDisguise because of v.count or what?
 
Oh well, we all know where you live and go to school
@RadishoftheOpera That and textures
 
@NoviceInDisguise yeah, i mean, it's only fun to find it on the people who protect it.
@NoviceInDisguise ahh...
textures
 
i never really did textures... what'd you do to learn them?
was there a tutorial?
 
Um . . . Uv unwrap and put them in a material . . .
No tutorial
 
3:58 PM
@NoviceInDisguise now i need to find gcf...
 
There probably are some
 
@NoviceInDisguise but like, how'd you get taught?
 
@RadishoftheOpera Mid USA, right outside big city, recent construction, lives in a ruralish suburb
 
i learned GE from CGAstym
 
I should learn python
 
4:00 PM
@NoviceInDisguise i know his time zone too. he didn't link as many things as you though. no panoramio.
 
@NoviceInDisguise i should too. it's my summer project
 
Summer is almost over, days will be getting shorter pretty quick . . .
 
@NoviceInDisguise ?
summer just started you big jerk, don't ruin my childish dreams.
 
Summer solstice is in a few weeks I think . . .
 
4:01 PM
i'm not even off school yet.
 
@RadishoftheOpera Luckily there ius a two month lag int he seasons
 
@NoviceInDisguise thats when it starts!!!
 
No, longest day of the year
Shortest is in December
 
@NoviceInDisguise wel yeah, but summer doesn't end until august or September sometime.
 
Unless of course you are in the southern hemisphere
@RadishoftheOpera Yeah, not until September does it start to frost again
 
4:02 PM
@NoviceInDisguise Aye! me Columbian!!!
@NoviceInDisguise it doesn't frost till october
 
I frosted here two weeks ago . . .
 
ski season started two weeks ago again also
 
under 2k feet of elevation
 
@NoviceInDisguise but still, frost is the combo of high relative humidity and low temps, both found where you are.
 
And anywheres else at the right time . . .
 
4:05 PM
our humidity is just around 20% on average but we're at >7,000 feet
 
Sooooo you have been having 80*+ out there
How is it?
 
and it's like, 80 degrees right now
and wind
y
@NoviceInDisguise hot...
perfect for incline though
 
basically, indoors is bad and outdoors is good at this point, cause we don't have AC
so i'm sitting here with my computer half out the window
 
:/
Open windows at night, shut them during the day
 
4:09 PM
also chickens get sick at high temperatures
 
Yes, not good
 
@NoviceInDisguise greenhouse effect.. you trying to kill me?
 
?
Cool air at night, you keep it in
 
@NoviceInDisguise high altitude, night gets to just above 30
 
Works on this side of the continent
@RadishoftheOpera Perfect :D
 
4:10 PM
everything here weather related is extreme
@NoviceInDisguise perfect for penguins
 
Blah blah . . . 40* is shirtsleeves weather
Maybe 45
 
studies show that people sleep best in temperatures above 60
@NoviceInDisguise !
45?
 
I have been doing chores int he morning at right around 45, shortsleeves
 
4:12 PM
@NoviceInDisguise thats working though, sleeping is different
 
Not working hard . . . milking a cow you just set there pretty much
 
@NoviceInDisguise nice cow btw
 
at least, i think thats a cow, could be a tractor
 
??
Google earth?
 
4:14 PM
yeah... is it 9 or 17.. results were inconclusive
then whitepages
 
Snoop . . .
 
panaramio first
@NoviceInDisguise sorry.
 
Just don't re-post stuff
 
it's not like i'm dangerous or anything
@NoviceInDisguise you might want to take down some of the links
@NoviceInDisguise i won't
 
@RadishoftheOpera Which ones?
Fixed.
 
4:16 PM
i think you're good now.
 
I can see how trying to have friends trace each other can make a safer online presence though
 
yeah
esspecially if they aren't acctually stalkers, just weirdos
 
^^
Like me
 
un-normal and all
 
Need to find GCF though . . .
 
4:19 PM
i know... there was that whole nevada scandal, but i don't think that pans out.
we know time zone, roughly where he lives....
lets see....
 
Big cities, I think 300k+
 
and you know his name...
 
Yes, I remember name, and general data
 
@NoviceInDisguise i'd say so too. with a rock and roll neighbour
 
4:21 PM
who plays guitar in the wee hours o' the morning
 
Wow, tractor thread is over 5k views!
8th page of replies!
 
link?
 
@NoviceInDisguise interesting that he has that many user profiles, none of them say anything more about him than we already know.
look up his name in whitepages
 
4:31 PM
Whose name?
 
Ah!
Utah . . .
Kansas, minnesota
@RadishoftheOpera
Kansas
100 matches, so a lot of data to sift through
 
cool @NoviceInDisguise
 
@NoviceInDisguise that's the right time zone though.... I climb to the top of pikes peak and see if I can spot him
 
4:37 PM
when you're at the top, there's all this green almost as far as the eye can see, then like a huge wall of grey, and that's Kansas.
 
Yeah, I noticed that when I was there
Looks like SLC, Utah might fit the bill
 
flat as a sheet of paper but more plain
 
It fits several of the necessary properties
 
@NoviceInDisguise big suburbs there
lets see....
 
New construction too, lots of it
Big city, proper time zone
 
4:39 PM
@NoviceInDisguise I think that's it.
wait, lemme move to my map PC

Thanks :)

4:41 PM
Hoping for a finalist spot
