00:00 - 18:0018:00 - 23:00

00:03
I worked!
You
You
Hello, humans.
Jeez, everyone is "gone like cheese in the breeze!"
@You Humans? What humans?
You
You
@TARDISMaker I wasn't sure what species were here, so I defaulted to humans.
:P
You
You
I am clearly a robot.
00:06
Didn't you have to click that "I'm not a robot" thing for like half your logins?
Did you seriously lie about that?!
You
You
Yep. :P
@You LIAR!!! :P
You
You
@TARDISMaker About being a robot or telling the sites that I'm not a robot?
@You You lied to the sites!
You
You
MUAHAHAHA!!!!

Now you will be terminated, @TARDISMaker.
I come from the future.
00:08
@You I'm not liking the way this conversation is going...
It's scary...
I don't want to be terminated...
It's not nice...
Don't be not nice...
Be a nice person...
It's not nice to terminate people...
...
You
You
I'll be a not mean robot. :)
@You Do not mean robots still terminate people?
:P
You
You
I AM BORG. YOU WILL BE ASSIMULATED. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!
@TARDISMaker "Not mean" means nice, right?
@You !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@You Depends on the version of nice...
You
You
@TARDISMaker :P Joking.
00:12
@You I am an apple
You wouldn't want to say "That waterfall is not mean"...
Event 64080 shall no longer cause men to impregnate themselves
You
You
@TARDISMaker Waterfalls are not mean or nice.
@You No, they're nice
You
You
@Lukaash I clearly have a problem with that. I'm expecting a child in several months.
00:14
But you wouldn't say that they're "not mean"
You
You
@TARDISMaker Waterfalls don't say please and thank you! They're not nice!
@You Oh really? congratulations! who's the farth--
@You But see, I don't mean that kind of nice...
@Lukaash :P
00:15
what's happening?
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ The usual, @TARDISMaker impregnated himself.
You
You
I'm expecting a baby. I impregnated myself on purpose!
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ @You isn't accepting that you can use nice to describe things like waterfalls...
00:16
@Lukaash Oh, I did? Huh... thought I was a guy...
:P
You
You
57 secs ago, by You
I'm expecting a baby. I impregnated myself on purpose!
@TARDISMaker According to the log, everyone can, so you and @You both impregnated yourselves.
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ Exactly, but you can't use "not mean" to describe them...
yeah
Nice means kind, or pleasant/good depending on context
Ha @You
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ Exactly
You
You
00:18
But my computer is mean!
It crashes a lot.
Waterfalls are loud
Loud isn't nice :(
@Lukaash Depends :)
For example, loud music is awesome
i know because people in the music room in my youth club screw my ears up.
Although it isn't awesome when it destroys your ears...
Amps so high, Drums hit so hard.
You
You
00:19
Loud music hurts my ears and pleases my brain. Somethings wrong...
2
@Lukaash Wait, is your youth group with church, or is this something separate?
I always associate it with church, but I'm now realizing that you could be meaning something entirely different from what I mean when I say it...
@TARDISMaker It's connected to one, but to of what i know, it's got nothing to do with it.
But i've never looked into it.
It's like an extension building, but modern and cool.
You
You
I feel like one obsessed with stars now. :P
00:22
@You There's only one star. :P
@You Is that your first star?
You
You
@TARDISMaker No.
It's my 4th?
idk...
3rd maybe?
@You I'd recommend not using that word in the chatroom... If GCF sees it, he's going to go crazy and we're going to have a huge argument about weather it's okay or not...
An argument like that will not end well
@TARDISMaker "IDK" ?
You
You
I edited it. :)
00:23
@You Thanks :)
Oh
I should of checked what that was a reply to
Oops.
@Lukaash :P
You
You
Because "IDK" is banned in China and North Korea. :P
That word used to mean someone who had a dirty room.
@You Everythings banned in north korea.
@Lukaash Okay...
@Lukaash :P
You
You
00:24
@Lukaash Everything except North Korea.
@You Wait so are you telling me if North Korea banned itself, they would be nonexistent?
You
You
@TARDISMaker Wait, GCF? Like, Greatest Common Factor?
@Lukaash Yes.
@You Or Giant Cow Films...
You
You
@TARDISMaker Oh. :P
Oh, well. On to rant about something else. :P
@TARDISMaker A quick wrong google search led me to this
00:27
@You My sentences always look wrong when I ping you :P
You
You
@TARDISMaker It's worse with @Me!
@You Oh, man... that would be terrible!
You
You
@TARDISMaker Let me make the account and answer some ridiculously easy question! :P
Thank God for indigo mode!
@You And then we can report it to @David @gandalf3 and @iKlsR!
You
You
00:30
:P
Why is the profile not showing? :P
@You Did you actually just make an account for that?
You
You
Yes. :P
Now I just need a few riddles. :P
Not sure if it will get deleted. :P
@You Don't worry, it will be :P
You
You
YES!!!
As soon as someone actually looks at the profile
@You That isn't very interesting
The second e messes it up
Because you never type that...
You
You
00:39
Yeah, SE needs 3 characters. :(
Let's change English so we can play with people's language! :P
Bye, all!
@You That was a rushed bye
Cya
YAY!!! XFCE is installing!
(I'm going to have to setup some users though...)
I don't really want to be the root user all the time...
00:58
o.o
@TARDISMaker Have you been following the wiki?
It's one of the best imo
@gandalf3 Absolutely!
I've been googling most things, and it's been topping all the search results
I'm quite happy about that
I don't think I've really found that much elsewhere
It's nice and in-depth without giving you too much detail
01:36
@gandalf3 Yeah, but then they should have said two, instead of four
idk
maybe they want you to buy more or something? :P
In short that support rep was useless (there were other things).
@gandalf3 Not happening!
Building a computer involves a lot of guessing :/
lol
wait for the new GPU series to come out though
01:40
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ Am doing
I'm going to get the 1080 (that is already decided)
I am in the market for a new PC, but I'm putting it on hold for the exact same reason :)
@GiantCowFilms Probably the same here
Its amazing!!!!
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ If my old GPU will fit the system, I may buy the rest of the computer now, and then add the new GPU later. (My current computer is mulfunctioning)
It keeps dropping drives, and crashing at random (usually overnight for some odd reason)
01:48
We believe its the motherboard
02:12
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ Thats causing the issue
What motherboard are you thinking of getting?
Going more CPU or GPU heavy?
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ Both
GPU: 1080 with support for another one (which I am going to start saving for)
I want dual xeon v4s, GPU can come later for me
@GiantCowFilms yeah
02:24
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ Two cores!
Two CPUs, with at least 8 multithreaded cores each :)
took two days to fully set my desktop up.
Screw you things that make absolutely no sense but work anyway.
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ Its been a long time since I wanted a faster CPU
GPU and RAM are really what define performance these days.
My i7 950 is awful for any type of simulations
@GiantCowFilms Depends
For rendering, for the most part. For simulation, not at all.
02:30
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ That is a really awful CPU
Exactly
What do you have?
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ That is until they GPU enable simulation, which is the case with most commercial packages (like realflow already)
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ Currently some i7 as well, it does 3.5Ghz with 8 threads
Yours does only 3Ghz though
:P
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ The new one I am buying isn't that much different though :/
Mine overclocks well over 3GHz, not sure what the limit is
02:32
it does about 4GHz
I think it gets up to around 3.35GHz
The base clock is 3.07 though
I run mine at base clock, which is 3.5Ghz I believe
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ BTW, with two powerful CPU's you'll wanna watch out for bottlenecks.
yeah
I need to do a bit of research :)
I do envy you. I have totally maxed out my budget, no room for fancy CPU. And I'm going to have to chip in my own money to get more ram :/
Well it is going to be all my own money for my rig :P
02:35
On the bright side, my old computer still works pretty well, which means I'll have a render slave!
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ Ain't got a job yet :P
part of me wants to wait until I launch my HDRI site, maybe I'll have more dough to pad my new computer out.
You have time before the new GPU flagships come out most likely
@X-27 A little bastard just took me down, hate those who follow you all the time, and then at some point, they get yah.
Real shame, i was so close.
02:40
Blame it on my internet atm though, it's not so great and it's laggy.
I just realised what his name is...
Anyway, as you can see on the bottom right, it's late
Even later now.
I'm out, cya guys.
cya
I'm out too
gotta sleep sometime . . .
I'm back again
there's a very weird spider on my wall
it's back looks like a sunflower seed
And it's big
02:45
I wanna bring it out, but...
Ehh screw it, i'll put it in the bath tub as i'm NOT going downstairs, unlocking the door, and throwing it outside right now.
My items i can put it in
A fedora. A small cardboard cylinder. A bin full of rubish. A bowl. A cup. And two shoes.
Or i could stick it to duct tape.
...
Okay i think i'll put it in the bin, and then put the bin in the bath
extra protection!
Cause i know it's hard for things to climb out of that bin
But i will have to dump the contents on the floor.
Okay let's do this...
Okay it's in the bin
now i need to label it so no one picks it up...
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ I can start off with one GPU, its how much I can put in the mother board
03:01
spiders climbing walls
spider fell
need to extract to dropoff point
spider is in bathroom. It's not 4:05 am
I need to sleep. Cya.
03:23
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ You could probably squeeze in a few minutes of sleep by going to bed around 5:21 AM, and getting up around 5:27AM
@Lukaash I take them out when they start following me. A good defense is an all-destroying total annihilation offense. Nuke the threat before they can begin to hurt you.
03:52
@Lukaash @NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ Not like I want to keep you up late or anything, but I just got a score of 32,622
(a screenshot I managed to take after eating the player that brought me over 30k)
And for all you blender people, yes, I still do use blender, and I still do answer questions.

A: BGE how can I run a sound file while a key is pressed?

X-27You can have a sound play on a key press and stop on the release of that key by using the "Play Stop" setting on the sound actuator When the sound actuator is set to "Play Stop," when it receives a positive pulse from the connected controller, it will start playing the selected audio file. Whe...

    locZ_one = bpy.data.objects["emptyOne"].location.z * 87.3
    locZ_one = round(locZ_one, 1)
    bpy.data.objects["one"].data.body = str(locZ_one)

hi\
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ are you done with finals yet?
today is my last day
I am homeschooled so . . . kinda
lol
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ are you one of those people that has thier life all planned out?
like you know what degree you're gonna get (if you're gonna get it), where you want to live, what job you want to do, your financial goals, what hobbies you have for the rest of your life
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ you still have fianls in homeschool i thought???
@ARadish Not at all
Well sorta
@ARadish Kinda
you have your life sorta extremely thought out?
14:16
Moderately, pretty flexible as of yet
I have a goal and a current condition, and some ideas on how the intermediate path might shape up. Nothing definite though
cool
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ you know what type of people i'm talking about tho, right? they just. . . know everything they want to do
yeah
kinda boring really
oh well, good for them I guess
well, they are excited about it
and then they make fun of me for not having life planned??? :| it's like, whut? freak,.lemme drink my coffee judgement free.
"but do you want to just drink coffee forever and never do anything else?"
"yes"
"you don't want to graduate?"
"of course i do..."
"...but thats not what i'm dong right now. right now i'm just chillin'"
"but if you don't work toward your goals all the time, you'll never reach them!"
"but right now, i don't care... >:| just trying to relax"
"well i'm gonna get my bachelors in BioMed, my masters in medicine, and harvard accepted me to get my PhD in medical technologies"
* mumbles * "over achiever"
"just cause you are a bum who never does anything doesn't mean everyone else has to be boring like you"
._.
"just stop imposing your plans on me..."
"you're trying to impose your plans on me!"
* leaves *
14:32
does that look too complicated to use in an answer for a BGE noob?
@X-27 no. it's pretty simple
yah, but you also have to animate a lamp's strength to control the amount of mix
15:31
@X-27 ... Screw you. :P
i'll beat it one day
16:18
This is a hard one for the right camera angles.
Also that's not an actual camera angle
that's just me showing all of it.
The actual render will be somewhere else less revealing
and slightly less messy
Are you going for a low-poly style?
If so, I would not recommend using a glossy shader at all, or at least very sparingly
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ I am. Currently i don't have any glossy shaders
As when i tested one it looked really weird.
What about the water?
That's actually glass.
The reason is it causes a ton of fireflies.
@Lukaash That is actually worse
Diffuse and transparency will probably work better
16:22
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ But it looks cool. :(
Use a lot of clamp then :)
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ I'll try that first
Also the glass was a very quick thing, so i've not really experimented on it yet.
And water in low poly scenes has always been a weird experienc for me.
So many choices.
 
1 hour later…
17:33
I showed my mom and my sister an example of bad kerning...

I don't think they like me anymore...
On a different note...
That is genius...
It seems like it would be really easy to make fairly convincing rain with that technique...
I'm doing my very first render just for it instead for any gaming purpose or such, meaning it is a actual render with actual render purposes!
It totals 24 frames, but only 5 have been drawn so far :<
@TARDISMaker That video is awesome!
@Gustavo6046 yeah
@Gustavo6046 Is this your first time here?
Not sure if I've seen you here before...
The first time I am here because of a actual render.
17:40
Ah, okay
I don't think I've ever really been here because of a render...
I'm waiting for a render to finish!
My computer is too slow to function when I'm rendering things, so I always make a point to either do something else, or render overnight
@Gustavo6046 Cool!
Nineth frame... this "rendering" thing is sure slow! I comprehend why people use this chat room as distraction while it renders.
@Gustavo6046 Not only while it renders :P
If you talk to basically anyone here, we'll all say that we're almost never here while actually rendering something...
@TARDISMaker Dynamic Paint?
17:42
@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ Plus ripples modifier...
ops
wrong window
I want to see that used in proper context...
17:43
Although I guess you'd still have to figure something out for the splash...
@Gustavo6046 That's taking 16 minutes!!!
What's you system?
That's really slow!
Windows 10 64-bit, RUNNING ON A SHIT INTEL
I HAAAAAATE INTEL AND THEIR DAMN SLOW OVERHEATERS
...plus 4GB RAM
btw, am I reading that right?
...though it's 2.13GHz and...
I'm trying to decide if it's 16 minutes or 16 seconds...
Tardis: yep, it's 18th frame in the 24 minutes
17:46
Oh, okay
oh wait, it's seconds
that's not that bad...
seconds since the last frame was rendered
Have you thought of using openGL render?
total might have been... 21*27
17:47
I'd be a lot faster (should be realtime), and since you don't seem to be doing anything fancy, it should work just fine...
=567 seconds
Also, it looks like you have normal issues on your house thing...
OH CRAP I FORGOT TO ANIMATE THE ARROW TO SPIN! I ONLY MADE IT MOOOOOVE !!!!
It looks like Z-righting...
Well, not really...
of course, the door was entirely carved from KNIFIN', EXTRUDIN' and SLASHIN'
17:48
It looks like messed up ambient occlusion...
...ambient occlusion?
@Gustavo6046 Could you be a bit more selective about your use of all caps?
Just kind of annoying having it used in fairly unnecessary circumstances...
@Gustavo6046 Darkening in crevices to fake more realistic lighting...
Have you stopped the render?
I use only smooth faces, no ambient occlusion
17:50
@Gustavo6046 And that'd be why
Don't do that on the house
@TARDISMaker yep it rendered completely by now
It's not supposed to be smooth
it might be flat then
Only use smooth shading on smooth objects...
Or if you add a bevel to flat objects... (which I recommend doing, because it adds a bit of realism and (potentially) style to your renders...)
Ctrl+B in edit mode is Bevel, right?
17:53
@Gustavo6046 Yeah...
Watch the topology though...
Bevels oftentimes like to be annoying about things like that
The bevel modifier is really good at messing up your shading if you don't treat it right...
How do I increase beveling precision?
Right now, I can move the mouse some inches and it doesn't do anything, but just some pixels more and tadaa! it vanishes and sphaggetifies!
ops
wrong link
btw, why is this all blacked?
when I'm not on Render mode*
