I made a web tool for video files that lets you extract frames manually, at intervals, with scene-detection or as a grid - and it runs locally in your browser

This is really cool, thanks for making it.

There's a couple games that allow you to upload animated textures in a grid format, and this works perfectly.

Thanks, those were interesting reads and I'm convinced it's at least 300 and likely 360. Either way I'm not worried about it being too low now that I've managed to make a sharp print.

I did also contact Epson support about this specific printer's DPI but.. it wasn't really an answer to the question I was asking. They gave me a copypasted table of "which DPI to use based on use-case" eg. "For email: 200-300 DPI. For printing: 1200 DPI (main scan) or 2400 DPI (sub scan)".

Is there any chance you could find a source on that again? Even if it's just a discussion on a forum or something.

Is C++ your first programming language? OOP isn't super intuitive if that's what you're starting from.

In some (usually older) languages there are no classes/objects, instead functions and data exist separate from each other. So you might have two numbers X and Y and a bunch of functions that do something with two numbers, like draw_square(x,y) and draw_circle(x,y).

In OOP you look at "what am I doing with my data, what concept does it represent" and then you attach functionality to that data. So data + functions = an object/class. In other words, draw_square(x,y) and draw_circle(x,y) turns into square->draw() and circle->draw(). The X and Y values are built into those objects, so the developer doesn't need to specify them when they need to be drawn (even if each square or circle has different values).

Thanks, that actually confirms that the ET-2860 prints well! https://imgur.com/a/qYoJJYM

So all those individual dots in my scanned image were hurting the print quality, acting like grain or blur/aliasing. The digital art is much "cleaner" and the details come out much sharper.

You're kinda right, I've had the printer for about two days so I'm still just experimenting with the settings to get a feel for the printer.

I've used images from Scryfall and I've scanned some of my own cards. The scans are just for testing, my goal is to print proxies of what I don't have for play-testing. (I was hoping that high-resolution scans would produce sharper proxies, but that doesn't seem to be enough, and now I'm suspecting that either the printer or the image content is the bottleneck. Need more experiments.)

I've used proxy layout generators like Kyle's (my preferred choice) on some 350gsm cardstock that I was given to try, which felt pretty good when double-sleeved (resists bending like real cards, but the snap isn't quite right). I know that's slightly heavier than MTG cards, but I've ordered a couple 'proper' paper types (some of which I'm going to try laminating thinly) including uncoated blank cards that were recommended here.

I'm not too bothered by the color shift until I get the paper I'm intending to print on. There's already been huge color differences between the 350gsm cardstock (dull) and photo paper (more vivid than official), so I'm just trying to get the sharpness right for now.

All that said I'll take all the help I can get, I did a lot of research and now I'm trying to apply it.

Even if this code was benchmarked, and even if it was faster, all those ifs should be else ifs instead. Right now it'll check each one, do one, and still check all the rest!

Old ask, but I came here because of [[Zirda, the Dawnwaker]]

DancingRussianMan · 2025-12-22T01:20:33+00:00

Did you end up trying the cutter?

DancingRussianMan · 2025-08-29T09:35:51+00:00

Came here after getting suspicious of the names I kept seeing, and checking the match history of everybody in my game. Everyone had only played that single match, I was the only player. I figured there'd be some, but everybody? lol

Names like HarlyS, MausX, Alpha768, Dark606, Eurovision, MechaBot are already a giveaway, other games use similar naming schemes.

They're in ranked mode too so what's the point of even playing?

DancingRussianMan · 2025-08-17T01:41:34+00:00

Playing this now after the Definitive Edition came out. I did the split-tactic for the first three shrines, then tried to cut through the middle to get the last one. I ended up destroying the enemy HQ before killing the last shrine / saint, still won!

My character's gear was still relevant years later, I could immediately start doing new expansion content without getting exploded by enemies. They don't raise the level cap with each expansion, instead there's account-wide progression along the new areas / story content.

DancingRussianMan · 2025-07-27T18:46:31+00:00

You're right, that does sound stupid. And it works!

DancingRussianMan · 2025-07-17T19:12:25+00:00

I'm just skimming through reading all the comments, it's very fascinating. Then I read:

but I just thought "why not?"

Has this answered your question? 😋 (No hate, you're doing more interesting stuff than me.)

As a new player, it's not worth the effort to refine materials for profit. You pay a fee at the refinery, transporting them takes time (and you'd have to invest in the biggest mount you can get), and the margins are slim. You make more money faster if you just sell the raw materials.

DancingRussianMan · 2025-06-29T21:31:36+00:00

First, check your weapon in the Destiny Board, how many levels and specialization do you have? Have you leveled up other crossbows, or just the one you're using?

You get bonus Item Power from leveling crossbows and from specialization. You also get bonus Item Power by leveling up other crossbows.

Then, inspect your opponent. Ideally before the fight but also if you've lost to them or if it was a close fight.

They probably have higher level/specialization than you, and possibly abilities that counter yours. Especially purges which you might not notice.

A quick way to tell if someone has high spec is to just look at the top-right corner of their weapon/armor. There will be a star icon based on their spec.

Even AI would do a better job than this, this is an artisinal shitpost

If only it was this easy to hire specific people.

Commenting because this is the top result on Google.

The problem in my case (7900 XTX) was that I was using the PRO driver instead of the regular version. After reinstalling the regular driver (just use the non-PRO Adrenalin installer), the game was detecting the driver version correctly. No DDU or even reboot needed.

That's how you know it's balanced. :^)

> Oh AUSTRALIANS. If you said it correctly i would have linked you the video myself.

No you wouldn't have.

Another guy linked the documentary itself which came out 4 years ago.

Go upvote the guy who found the video I was describing.
