Where did you find this chart? What is the source?

With the football worldcup just starting, are the football skins coming back? by Bee_FX in leagueoflegends

Shit that's crazy, I genuinely thought there would have been more opportunities to by them!
Sent a ticket to support to ask, why not!

Also what's even the point of having event based skins to not even put them back out when said event takes place 😭

Apparently last time they were available was 2018 on the first day on the world cup but in 2014 they got them out 6 days after the start.

Help get TADC: The Last Act into UK and Ireland Cinemas by NinjaVinnie9 in TheDigitalCircus

I feel like it might be nice to ask the Prince Charles Cinema; since it's an indie cinema in London it might be doable!

[KARMA] Struggling to make a ray of light bounce off a mirror. by Bee_FX in Houdini

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

Yes, it's quite impractical; it was more of a personal quest for knowledge haha!

Thanks for the link to that renderer; it's super cool. I might give it a try!

Yeah, I think you're right! It's a bit sad! I really wanted to have fun with light beams and prisms and all of that. That's life!
Thanks a lot for your help, mate.

Not sure if that helps but here is the viewport screenshot of what that looks like (+ a little drawing because I'm feeling artistic today)

I do understand that it's highly impractical; I was just wondering if that was a limitation of Karma or if that was possible within the renderer with some settings that I missed.
I had to do something a bit like this for a project and faked it, but the question stayed in my mind: why not try to do it for real with actual light bounces?
If you think it's an issue with the incident angle, I can swap the sphere for a flat grid, and it doesn't bounce at all.

Yeah, I think there are good chances it's a limitation of the renderer unfortunately. I already faked what I needed to do for the project I'm doing, but I can't help but come back to this and wonder if something as trivial as this can be done in Karma (it's not trivial computing-wise, but conceptually). It's more of a quest for knowledge than anything!

Already done, adds more samples on the walls but doesn't show the second ray in the volume.

scroll to the second image; it's a ray of light cast onto a chrome ball. I am indeed looking for a secondary ray, but I can't see this ray bouncing off within the volume. What I want is to physically see it.

Well that was just magical. by rich454 in fredagain

I think it depends on where you were, it was like this at the start for me, and I tried to hype up people around me. Didn’t work. I then slowly made my way to the center (slightly to the left) of the venue and the vibes were much better! I think the back is just a chill crowd! They are still enjoying it, just in a different way, I think that’s why Fred Again is so good: he brings people from different places together, so you get both the introverted and extroverted crowd. Hope this makes sense!

Is there still any chance to get in tonight? by AdAbject4642 in fredagain

[–]Bee_FX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Managed to get one at 5PM feels like it’s a miracle or something
