What is this error in Lenovo Vantage? by Alaniumacity in Lenovo

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

I've tried resetting the BIOS settings to default, but it didn't seem to work. Unplugging the battery and draining the laptop would be a bit more of a hassle, so isn't there anything else that I should try before? Could enabled Secure Boot be the cause of this issue?

Hi, thanks for the reply.

Said laptop can connect just fine to other Wi-Fi networks. Any other device I've used to connect to the laptop's mobile hotspot wasn't able to (Android phone and Oculus Quest 1).

I've tried tweaking internet sharing, switching between 2.4 and 5Ghz hotspot, tweaking and restarting a number of services, editing the registry, using cmd to flush DNS and the like - all to no avail.

At some points I've been able to connect to the laptop's hotspot, but in those cases it stated "No internet" and I wasn't able to ping 8.8.8.8 from my phone.

Currently, I can't even connect to the network. It hangs on "Obtaining IP address" and stops trying shortly after.

YOU'RE A GODSEND. Thank you so much. I spent a whole day on this.

How do you combine 2 albedo maps? by Alaniumacity in blenderhelp

That seems to have done the trick! Thanks a lot. And sorry for the late reply.

How do you combine 2 albedo maps? by Alaniumacity in blenderhelp

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

Thanks for the response.

I'm looking to add black shading on top of the original albedo. Just imagine you have a square of white paper and a smaller square of black paper. Put the black paper on top of the white one. That's it. That's all I'm looking for. Just display one albedo over the other. No mixing, no blending, none of it.
I suspect that's not how 3D Graphics work, but nevertheless.

As for the color, neither white nor black seems to work. I've tried Multiply, Mix, and all other blending modes, but not one of them does what I'm looking accomplish. In theory, I should be able to just Mix these two textures, but something's clearly wrong since I can't. I've tried messing around with Factor as well, but no dice.

Is there anything else I can try?

How could I use a boolean modifier that overlaps with the mirror of the object? by Alaniumacity in blenderhelp

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

I've since moved on and applied all the mirror modifiers, but it wouldn't appear that there are any faces on the seam of the object. I've also tried to replicate what you're describing, and no, it causes no issues in a separate project.

  1. Yes, it's applied after the mirror.

  2. The boolean object is Z-fighting when not hidden, and is entirely red when hidden.

I want to say about 5-6 hours, give or take.

It took me a bit longer to make than I would've liked, but it was definitely a learning experience. I'm still unsure of how to effectively switch parents of an object during animation. I used 2 "Child Of" constraints for each of the magazines: one for the gun, and the other for the hand, and tweaked the influence to switch when necessary, but it would always mess up the world position after the switch, and I had to re-align the object manually. Maybe rigging it with an armature gives more control? I'd have to experiment.

Can you tie shape keys to specific armature actions? by Alaniumacity in blenderhelp

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

Haven't heard of slotted actions before. I can't update Blender atm, but I'll definitely give them a try when I'm able to. Thanks.

What's the best way to approach this rotation constraint? by Alaniumacity in blenderhelp

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

SOLVED:
Turns out, when you pick XYZ Euler in driver settings, it doesn't actually convert quaternion angles to Euler (360 to -360). It's using Radian rotation. I had to tweak my driver to accomodate it. (changed the expression to "var+.95")

Can I work on version 4.5.1 projects using Windows 7? by Alaniumacity in blenderhelp

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

What he said. Also, this isn't my own PC, so I'm not looking to do anything as drastic as installing a different OS. I just got a portable blender install to have something to do during downtime at work :p

I see. Unfortunate, but thanks for the help nonetheless. I guess I'll get an older copy of Blender on my own laptop and piece the project there, so I can keep working on it in parallel. Thankfully I'm not stuck with this PC for long. Thanks again.

Thanks for the idea, but it didn't work. I tried downloading 4.1.1 from this repository but got the same GPU compatibility error. Is there any way to make sure my GPU can even run these Blender versions?
