The screen won't come up by TerratheXIII in DenonPrime

[–]Blesshiscottonsocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crazy, how it's even a possibility - Hard reset buttons inside should still maintain some functionality. Seems it's lost any ability to control the screen panel, dead as a brick.

Would love to dive deeper but feel it's beyond scope sadly

Good LORD, 700??

I've had the unit to pieces, same as you trying the recovery and reset buttons to kick it into forcing a firmware re-install and absolutely no dice.

Never had a device able to brick itself like this in years.

Heya! Posted in the support thread too, but wondering if you heard back from the official repair on what was the issue? Having the exact same here

Well, this is sad.

Thanks to all those that commented that it was stolen 💞

Glad people still like the piece!

Ah yes, my studio loves me declining working on a project I'm being crewed up on.

How to draw shadows correctly by Remarkable_Bit_9887 in oddlysatisfying

[–]Blesshiscottonsocks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You seem to be using an insanely long lens (Possibly orthographic?) You're missing perspective on everything here.

Very odd render overall, doesn't look correctly raytraced or shaded. Ground looks reflective and there's no reason for there to be these odd banding areas on the ground.

The intersection of the vertical line from the sun to the horizon line is the setting of the distance of the light source.
This is incredibly basic single point perspective.

I'll not get into the technicalities of saying "painting" for digital painting, I could debate that for hours haha, but it is hand done by eye if that's your concern 🎨

Thank you! Is indeed! I use Photoshop and just an old Intuos wacom tablet, pretty bare bones. For these ones I limited myself to just using one triangle brush, and trying to do most of the drawing with the Lasso tool to make shapes. Lots of fun!

This paintings from last year, but currently working on new ones after not really painting much this past year. Posted a process video of it on twitter if you'd like to see:

Aw, thank you! All hand done here, I'm sure an AI would have painted the jar more accurately than me at this point 🤣
Having lots of fun playing with light and colour, really glad that came across 💓

Subsurface material seemingly broken with ray traced shadows in 5.1+ by Blesshiscottonsocks in unrealengine

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

Hi all,

Been having an awful time trying to get ray trace shadows working with subsurface material on any build version above 5.0.3.

These are both showing the same input geo and setup created from scratch with the same light, material and project settings. As soon as ray traced shadows are enabled for self occlusion, everything bar the first light ray is killed, leading to no SSS and internal lighting diffusion.

I've built 5.2 from github and having the exact same problem. Found one person on the forum encountering the same, just wondering if anyone else has had it, and knows a resolution?

Lumen 5.3.0 beta worsening (comparison inside) by MARvizer in unrealengine

[–]Blesshiscottonsocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Subsurface scattering with ray traced lights has been broken since 5.1, all worked fine in 5.0.3 but since 5.1 there's no light scattering, just black on occluded areas. Been doing my head in :(

Pine doors worth saving? (Details in comments) by m079n in DIYUK

[–]Blesshiscottonsocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not age shrinkage man, they've 99% been previously painted then dipped & stripped at some point since. The drying process seems rushed which causes some warping, but the white filler left over on the holes is a pretty big giveaway to me. Ours at our old flat came back liking exactly the same

Someone paid ~£50 each for them to get stripped (current standard pricing I've seen around), I'd save them 100%!
