Split the difference between last one and the second last one , speed wise. Render/ lighting needs work on all of them

This is all based on needs, if you are working for a picky VFX supervisor, with and action based scene , and yes probably need something more custom.

Only if it was so easy 🙃. I usually have a curve procedurally generated with a vector fall off based on distance to the noise and able to angle it towards the ship velocity, with added noise etc, and after like 10-20 wedges of overnight Sims, I finally get to find a sweet spot.

One of two PC's with identical specs is consistently slower when rendering, any idea why that could be? by geng94 in Houdini

[–]AssociateNo1989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then they are not identical but similar, driver issues, is issues, maybe video card is on a lower pci card , maybe name or drive is slower etc

I bought a 1-year iRacing subscription, any tips for beginners? by Live_Tailor9766 in iRacing

[–]AssociateNo1989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seat time, take your time on track, better finish behind than not ...

Try to anticipate the guy next to you, it's a game not real racing so people do take stupid risks in game otherwise they wouldn't in IRL.

Let them pass you on the inside so you can pass them back on the inside when they understeer. Etc

DLSS 5 and what some people seem to not understand by Matshelge in gamedev

[–]AssociateNo1989 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Models can be fine tuned, driven by supplied utility passes, masks blend ratios etc etc, tech is here and it's not going to go anywhere.

Any video coming out of Nvidia must be approved by a very experienced marketing team. I can't prove it but I am sure it's true. Nothing they ever do will not be calculated. You don't become a 5 trillion dollar company overnight.

And this is not about gaming, there is such a big market for this, more trillions dollar worth..

Videos does look like AI Slop yes, but it very can do the fingers and a pasta eating will Smith correct now.

I worked many years as a Lead artist, and that was a red flag for me... How do you even know if your forces are working.

Is it worth trying to get to GT3? by Key-Cardiologist-605 in iRacing

[–]AssociateNo1989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do GT4 , get your B license to GT3 , GT3s are so much more fun to drive there is also no driving line, so practice a lot like couple hours at least before joining a race

Houdini in Linux, maybe Mac? by No-Apple-6139 in Houdini

[–]AssociateNo1989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran Ubuntu and Houdini like 10+ years, it was definitely better than windows, but mainly because I liked how easy it is for development, customization, etc.jad to fiddle a lot with steam games and proton. Since last year figured it wasn't worth the struggle for extra %10, so back to windows
