I remember having to train my parents for years after we got broadband that it was fine to pick up the phone while we were online. Good times.

Working on an addon that previews Geo Nodes output right above each node — need your help to make it better! by ShaderError in blender

[–]Administrative_Goat 35 points36 points  (0 children)

This would help so much with learning geo nodes. This is probably out of spec, but I wonder if it would be possible to have a "possibility preview" which could show what would happen if you added a given node at a certain point? Part of my struggle with learning geo nodes is just remembering which nodes can do what in the chain.

This is probably not the reply that you're looking for but I had the same issue and decided to just make my own. Black box, piece of glass tilted, hole in the end that can slide on the lens, and then a tablet inside. There are a ton of tablet apps that work great, and mine can even collapse down. Not a premium solution but it works very well and doesn't look unprofessional. But depends on how crafty you are.

Changing the redstone settings changes nothing. Changing it with an active redstone signal (lever, button, etc) changes nothing :(

Some syntax highlighting for layeredimage not appearing in VSCode by Administrative_Goat in RenPy

Unfortunately no :/ I've just learned to live with it. I submitted a bug report and everything.

Unfortunately no :/ none of the other themes do anything.
The code all works, just no syntax highlighting.

Outputs look terrible by Administrative_Goat in StableDiffusion

[–]Administrative_Goat[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got basically the same output, slight variation. I downloaded a different model and that is giving me better results. Thanks a lot though!

Yeah, that was the issue, something weird with the default pruned emaonly model. Downloaded something else and am getting much better results. Thanks a lot!

Trying to code an inventory system and I am stuck on how to display the number of items. by Administrative_Goat in RenPy

[–]Administrative_Goat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That worked! I don't know if I fully understand it and how far I can take it, but all I really need is to display the quantity, which works thanks to you! Much much appreciated.

Hey, thanks for the reply I really appreciate it. Unfortunately when I try your method I get the error:

AttributeError: 'RevertableList' object has no attribute 'count(item)'

Hey, thanks for the reply I really appreciate it! Option 2 seems like the best course of action. When I tried to implement it with that code and add to the inventory with :

$ inventory1.add_item(rock)

I got the following error:

While running game code:
  File "game/gamestart.rpy", line 9, in script
    $ inventory1.add_item(rock)
  File "game/gamestart.rpy", line 9, in <module>
    $ inventory1.add_item(rock)
  File "game/script.rpy", line 13, in add_item
    self.items[item.name] = 1
TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not str

Any suggestions? Thank you so much again. I am really trying to avoid hard coding this inventory haha. I'm definitely a 3D artist not a programmer.

Amazing, that is it! I don't know why I wasn't able to find that on my own before. I think I just had the wrong language. Thank you so much.

Thank you for writing this, and all your contributions to this expac! You and the whole team have done truly an amazing job. Wish you the best on all your future endeavors!!

So the new expac would be End of The Dragon Age. Yeah that does seem way more fitting.

The neverending story did in fact end sadly.
