@NoviceInDisguise I used that method for my desktop

user image

Then colored it in photoshop

@iKlsR True enough (i can multi-task a bit, talk while working) it is one thing if you just stay out of the conversation/vs never be around and dissapear every few seconds though... Finally, that was a joke not a direct criticism if all four of you pulled our full weight, not just you, I think it would be fine :D

@NoviceInDisguise BTW, using a subsurf set to simple is a much better non destructive way of creating a grid... use that instead

@GiantCowFilms Not a bad idea

1:25 AM

@GiantCowFilms Just got my second Gold badge :D

@GiantCowFilms You haven't even been here a full year.. all 4 of us were here from day 1. When you start college or get a job you will start to treasure the scare commodity that is time.

Q: How can I get the color in the middle of a face using Python?

Say I have a mesh and I have colored the vertices using vertex paint, how can I then get the average of the colors or rather the color in the middle of the face or the color under the normal (shown below) using blender python?

python scripting vertex-colors

2:21 AM

@iKlsR Oh cool!

@NoviceInDisguise I though I wasn't stingy on votes.. :O though I don't often vote questions ....

NoviceInDisguise

That might be it

@iKlsR That is probably true....

....very true

@iKlsR As I said I'm fine with your absence, its the fact that the other three never ever come!

2:51 AM

@iKlsR I have a job and I'm in college. And I've found the key to having all the time in the world.

caffeine

You just have to plan margin in for time.

Sass (compiled css) rocks!

This:

@for $i from 1 through 20 {
    .col-#{$i} {
        -ms-flex: $i;
        flex: $i;
    }
}

produces this:

.col-1 {
  -ms-flex: 1;
  -webkit-flex: 1;
          flex: 1; }

.col-2 {
  -ms-flex: 2;
  -webkit-flex: 2;
          flex: 2; }

.col-3 {
  -ms-flex: 3;
  -webkit-flex: 3;
          flex: 3; }

.col-4 {
  -ms-flex: 4;
  -webkit-flex: 4;
          flex: 4; }

.col-5 {
  -ms-flex: 5;
  -webkit-flex: 5;
          flex: 5; }

.col-6 {
  -ms-flex: 6;
  -webkit-flex: 6;
          flex: 6; }

.col-7 {
  -ms-flex: 7;
  -webkit-flex: 7;
          flex: 7; }

.col-8 {
  -ms-flex: 8;
  -webkit-flex: 8;
          flex: 8; }

Which before would have been typed out by hand.....

and I would get very board

A: Repeating an operation (similar to screw)

You can always resort to F3 to view the history and repeat extrude region and move alternating with resize. it will always extrude the same distance and resize the same percentage relative to the size of the face that's been extruded. F3 > extrude region and move, F3 > resize and repeat.

Is there a faster way to repeat two sets of history?

@cegaton here is another question for your psychics.

Star this if you really don't care much about the theme of the site, and are here for the questions.

3

Star this if you think that Staring random messages is fun.

5:51 PM

@iKlsR any idea why user xaccrocheur posted this answer to a old question? His answer happens to be very similar to mine.

another case of a user trying to add a very small amount of information to an existing answer, but instead of adding a comment like they should, they copy the answer and expand upon it ever so slightly.

1 hour later…

7:05 PM

@David Sure, let me get my mind reading cap, will get back to you shortly.

7:19 PM

Pro-Tip Always refrigerate mayonnaise

just found that out.

puke face

@iKlsR would that answer fall in to the "does not add anything new to the post and thus should be deleted"category?

@David I don't see a problem with it, it's slightly an alternative, +0.0001 to our answer ratio.

My first answer in a month.. :O

NoviceInDisguise

o.O

Pro-Tip: Stop writing pro tips.

3

@iKlsR well, if we were pros it would make more sense.

7:28 PM

@iKlsR you know that will get stared.

Amateur-Tip: Become a pro

NoviceInDisguise

XD

@ARadish Good one

Ikls' was pretty good also.

:D!

NoviceInDisguise

Yes

I G2G for now, will BBL tonight

@NoviceInDisguise KK cya.

7:31 PM

@iKlsR any idea why flagged chat massages are coming to me? I'm not a mod, and as such I can not act on them. So if I try to do something about one of the flagged chat messages it will not let me.

@David You're a room owner.

@iKlsR but not for the rooms that the messages were in.

SE mods only have power on their site. Chat powers are global tho.

@iKlsR You mean @David rules the world?

@ARadish Just a few minor privileges.

7:34 PM

@iKlsR so he's like a puppet dictator. I see.

2

hmm, so why does it say "you can not counter flag a message that has already been flagged. " (close to that) on this page, or in chat.

@David all I got when I tried your link was a bunch of trekkies in rainbow mob-caps

@David It was already taken care of.

@iKlsR ok so if any other room owner or mod anywhere in the SE system hits the button first, I will get a message like that. Thanks

But why is today the first time I ever saw one of those notifications (and it has been three today)?

@David because your eyes were opened to the corruption of the world.

7:41 PM

10K rep is why.

7

Q: Chat flag notification

10k users can see flags in chat. What are we suppose to do with it, and why these notifications don't go away after "reading" them?

discussion notifications chat flags

ok. that makes more sense than you being blind all your life. Good job.

8:10 PM

I feel rather dumb, blender.stackexchange.com/posts/27386/revisions, I did not use knife project at first.

2

8:50 PM

@David oh dear.

9:21 PM

@iKlsR They were quite useful until people started having too much fun with them.... I think it should be based on a license...

@David I feel rather dumb for not having time to answer that one

Being admin on Blend-Exchange has taght me one thing: People don't know what to call their blend files.... they just know that a lot of underscores are required.

I just noticed something in this comment by BlenderDev. :*"Yeah I have made many projects that I worked on until I disliked it; however, I made a project that I have enjoyed for 3 years in development, but I am a single 13 year old and made many problems so I haven't even passed finishing the controller. Your shaders are nice though"*

why did he specify single 13 year old.?

@ARadish To attract them ladies? :P

He's just must be a weirdo.

Possibly, though I said nothing...

and why did he give me his life story anyway?

9:30 PM

Because he "made many problems", clearly

9:43 PM

sorry, internet died there.

I found out why it happens though.

@ARadish Why, then?

so construction workers are replacing the cables, so that's why it's been funky.

9:57 PM

@ARadish to differentiate between himself and all the married 13 year olds.

5

no really, I expect it was a badly written attempt to say that he is the only one working on his project for 3 years etc.

@David "Expect"?

@someonewithpc expect, I mess those two up.

Time to paint another grammarian silhouette on the side of the desktop.

@David That's fair, one two letters switched

@David that's what I was thinking.

And I think it would be really weird if he'd been working on his project since he was a single 10 year old. seems a bit young.

And what the heck does "I made many problems" mean?

@ARadish It means he doesn't English properly, for one (that's intentional)

10:07 PM

It's why hes still single at such an old age<sarcasm>

@ARadish no, no the many problems are why he is still single. :)

@ARadish can you post the link to his comment, I want to read the full thing.

@David uh... yes I just said that. XD

third comment down.

5

A: Or controller problem in GE

This can be best solved with a Xor controller. You need two of them. one for W and S, and one for A and D. Here is an example of a Xor gate. Here is a .blend example.

@ARadish No, you say that is single because of his poor English, @David said it was because of the problems themselves

Slightly different

quite comical actually.

@ARadish you can copy a link directly to the comment, by right clicking on the time stamp and copying the link location. blender.stackexchange.com/questions/23939/…

10:11 PM

cool... >:)

! didn't know that!

If you read it, absolutely none of it even makes sense at all.

I have made many projects that I worked on until I disliked it

it makes (a little) more sense now that I read all the comments.

thing is you got him so impressed (that he told you his life story) by simply showing him a logic brick.

That's... 1 brick?

ikr?

Had he never seen them?

the Xor controller

10:15 PM

@someonewithpc he did, but he also made many problems so he couldn't figure it out.

4

@David Really...

@ARadish LOL

@ARadish that is a good one!

( still laughing )

@David Why is he called "BlenderDev" if he clearly doesn't program?

now I feel kinda mean for making fun of someone while they're not here to defend themselves though...

@someonewithpc cause his name is Devon.

his moms nickname for hi.

@ARadish .. Yeah... Let's make fun of @David now! </jk>

@ARadish Oh...

10:18 PM

@someonewithpc I really have no idea.

@someonewithpc to quote his profile "I'm very experienced in some topics in BGE, while hardly experienced in some, such as rigging." I kind of think it would be safe to skip the first half of that sentence and go straight to the hardly experienced.

@David that cracks me up every time.

later

@David That a fair statement, I guess

o/

OO/?

10:22 PM

@ARadish (o/

oo/

(Broke his right arm)

@ARadish ?

oodles

@ARadish ... *backs of slowly*

@ARadish .. yes, off

Q: Noob can not end extrusion along the z axis?

I was extruding on the z axis, then wanted to extrude along the x axis. I tried to right click i order to cancel the move, then right clicked again on the newly selected faces to start the x axis extrusion. I even tried middle clicking to cancel the z axis selection. What happens is I am in the...

Hilarious title

No, you must be a pro, in order to do so

@ARadish ^^

10:42 PM

@someonewithpc I wan't to write a comment begging with Hi, @Noob

:P

@GiantCowFilms I want to write:

11 mins ago, by someonewithpc

No, you must be a pro, in order to do so

XD

You can begin it with Hi, @Noob

@GiantCowFilms "Hi, @Noob! Sadly, yes, only pros can do it - it's a know limitation with live that will be fixed in version 42.sqrt(2pi), coming in 6-8 weeks"

@someonewithpc Approved!

@GiantCowFilms Any proposed changes?

10:48 PM

I'd say 6-8 years....

@GiantCowFilms meta.stackexchange.com/a/19514/285302

@someonewithpc Genius!

do link to it for the power users benefit

@GiantCowFilms blender.stackexchange.com/questions/27391/…

@GiantCowFilms ^^ ?

11:27 PM

@someonewithpc Approved and UV'd

;D
