Famous last words on retopology:

@GiantCowFilms you should like this one

@David Man, you took that right out of context

That is really great

This is so accurate

@TARDISMaker but it is a good quote. Here is an example Guy1 "I have to do some retopology." You "Good luck! :)"

We ought to have a documentation party

@gandalf3 That would be interesting

He really seemed to want to hide that

@X-27 lol

@TARDISMaker ?

@gandalf3 Look at the URL

(I shot a few hundred NATO rounds through my computer, then I covered it in premium X-Fuel gasoline, set it on fire, and put 20,000 amps through the keyboard.

@TARDISMaker Oh, don't think it was meant to be findable directly.. It was linked on IRC

@gandalf3 Yeah, I assumed that you got a link to it somehow

@X-27 Still runs through a blender find though.

I wouldn't expect him to make it easy to find

?

@gandalf3 yes, on high, if the blade is very sharp...

I just find it a bit amusing how many directories there are before you get to the actual page

And that it's in /junk/crap :P

Yeah

@gandalf3 have you ever tried the lite version of Microsoft Visual Studio on linux?

Why?

(no)

@TARDISMaker try saying that sentence slowly "try Microsoft on linux" definitely does not sound right.

^^

@David I agree

However trying linux on microsoft sounds like a perfectly natural situation, if still a rather suboptimal one.

There's a linux version, so that's why I'm asking

Nope

There's a demo video for it

Never really did much of the IDE thing

What I find really amusing, is that the guy doing it, is on a mac

@gandalf3 Do you use geany, or just something like gedit?

Currently I'm using atom

@gandalf3 brackets for me

(form what I've gathered them are similar)

I've been using Sublime

lol we have quite the variety

You can basically download the demo version, and then they never actually make you upgrade

They just "remind" you

I thought that was funny that they almost literally said "This is a demo. For extended use, you must buy the full version. There is no enforced time limit on the demo"

I just watched the video for atom 1.0, funny

@David That videos is brilliant

That's how you do marketing

@gandalf3 With Sublime? Yeah, I find it really amusing

My older sister bought it, and gave me the license to it because she stopped using it, but after upgrading linux, I didn't bother licensing it properly again, because I still had all my functionality.

If we were to do some kind of "documentation party" for the purpose of improving blender's documentation, would anyone here be interested in participating?

@gandalf3 I possibly would be

@gandalf3 where are the instructions for setting up the manual locally for editing?
