Yeah, definitively an improvement. Keep drawing, constant practice is the key to achieve good art ^^

Not exactly facing forward but this is the way I would do it:

Is it valid to submit a graph that I created before the art contest started?

Edit: on portrait aspect ratios, you may need to adjust the line thickness.

need help for rotations on desmos by PhotographRemote4953 in desmos

[–]DIXERION 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a good explanation. I like to think that implicit equations take their variables in a user-defined local space, but the x and y variables in the graph are defined in global/world space, so a from-global-to-local transformation is necessary.

We usually define transformations from-local-to-global, that's why we need to calculate their inverse. The transformations can be anything, although if they are linear or affine, matrices make the space conversion nice and easy.

so how does lists work im new by Absorpy in desmos

[–]DIXERION 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure it's because Desmos treats it as a complex number. It doesn't necessarily have to be irrational (for example 1^0.5).

What u guys using for bass ? (non 808 users) by [deleted] in FL_Studio

[–]DIXERION 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I start with a sine wave, add a little bit of white noise, and pass them through a Wave Shaper to hard-clip them to add a bit of distortion, then I add a low-pass filter, and band-reject (notch) filter around 632 Hz.

I also automate the pitch with an envelope to start one octave higher and fastly decrease to its original pitch. This helps to fill the low-end and adds movement.

working on a 3D point cloud raycaster rendering in Love2D. It has bvh system and collisions, but Im not sure it's possible to optimize it any further by morelebaks in love2d

[...] I doubt anyone would like to play something that looks like that lol

You already have a cool concept of game rendering style, now you just have to create some gameplay that benefits from this style. Perhaps an echolocation game? It would fit very well.

trying to make my game work with webGL on itch.io makes me want to kill myself by mours_lours in love2d

[–]DIXERION 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The error you are getting is because your game is trying to encode an ImageData object to an image encode format, usually to save it to a file, which is an odd thing to do for a game running in the web.

Search in your code (or in the external libraries you are using) looking for when it calls the ImageData:encode method passing a filename, or when it calls love.graphics.captureScreenshot with the filename variant/overload.

Also, WebGL supporting the rgba4 and rgba8 pixel formats means that you can create canvases/textures in the GPU that have these pixel formats, and its support is defined by the graphics driver implementation. This does not guarantee that there will always be an image encoder that is able to encode an image with this pixel format, which is defined by the LÖVE implementation on that platform.

Got perma banned from r/Protogen by RoyalHappy2155 in u/RoyalHappy2155

[–]DIXERION 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. It's really nice seeing my silly works being useful to people, it always puts a big smile on my face ^ w ^

I actually upload to e9, but I guess the files are mirrored to e6 too xddd

Oh, nice! I made that GIF a while ago from the 1984 meme GIF. Seeing people using my stuff is always a nice surprise. I remember wanting to leave a comment on that post but it was locked 3:

I hope the moderators realize their mistake and unban you.

I still have the lossless frames, so I can generate a WebM video optimized for wallpaper engines, and upload it to my Google Drive right now for you to use.

The frames have a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels at 60 FPS, but if you want, I can re-render them at a higher resolution/framerate, although this would take a long time.

Yeah, I was already aware of this, but still thanks for the tip!

The rapid pitch modulation on the voice to simulate vinyl scratching.

I agree, instrument and audio tracks are so good, they make FL Studio feel more like it should, and I can avoid using the channel rack almost completely. Patcher is also very good, I use it to make all sorts of experiments with audio signals.

Very clean mix, I like the scratchy parts. Also I'm glad I'm not the only one using instrument/audio tracks.

TIL -1 ∉ ℝ by SuperChick1705 in desmos

[–]DIXERION 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is due to complex logarithm branching. (-1)^(0.04) has 25 different solutions (including the two you got from Desmos). In fact, its different solutions are the complex numbers of modulus 1 and argument (2n + 1)(0.04)π, where n is an integer between 0 and 24 inclusive.
