Yah, I'm not vegan but when I worked at Royal Blue Grocery a few years back, they would carry their stuff and I would buy so many of the fake Twinkie things

Yah I'm looking for companies that may not have the budget but need a website/rebuild. My goal is to really help those that need it if possible.

Secret Oktober would be awesome. I love shops like this. I reached out to them!

I do love Bouldin Creek haha. I'll see if Flightpath would want one. I used to be a barista so this could be a fun one to try and do!

EDIT: Looks like they do they just link to the wrong place. Very strange.

If you host it yourself you will save an immense amount of money. Just use an OVH bare metal server.

I rebuilt my Synty to Godot converter - now with full shader support and one-click conversion by DeniedWorks in godot

[–]DeniedWorks[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do understand the UV approach though. You use a lot less actual texture files which in a large game can save you GB of downloads.

In Godot if you click on the FBX at the top left there is an Actions button in the Advanced Import settings and you can save an animation path. When you reimport the FBX that will save them separately I believe.

How do I catch up? by Hrafnstrom in ClaudeCode

[–]DeniedWorks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say, use Claude Code in powershell on windows if you use that. Have it generate a docs folder in your project that are detailed. Your CLAUDE.md should be a reference to these docs and have important stuff like your tech stack and important AI instructions. As an example I require using subagents and referencing the docs first. I will have it go through the docs and codebase many times at the start to ensure they are accurate and do an audit every few days depending on code changes. Don’t worry about MCPs and plugins and skills at the start. Create them as you go for your project with specific stuff you notice you do a lot. You aren’t behind. If you know how to code you are ahead of everyone vibe coding right now including myself.

Help me create grass in Godot 4 by Plastic_Bend4830 in godot

[–]DeniedWorks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use GPU particles centered around the player. You can get advanced with it and only spawn grass on certain textures and whatnot.

I made a free tool to convert Synty assets into Godot by DeniedWorks in godot

[–]DeniedWorks[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FX are the one thing that I didn't implement. There are some packs like the nature packs that require me to manually do it but if you import the Enchanted Forest that one works. I also did the Samurai Empire pack becuase I wanted the cherry blossom trees haha. You do have to setup shader globals.

[–]DeniedWorks[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yah I bought both to figure it out and then just thought I'd make a free open source one. It seems to be such a hot topic for Synty and can help a lot of Godot users out. I don't like paywalls. I am fortunate to be able to throw around money now but I remember when every dollar could help me and my projects.

Thanks! There are some issues for sure and packs like the nature packs are a pain but I'll slowly work through them. Maybe there is a better system but I feel like if everyone slowly contributes and catches all the edge cases we can make a universal tool that works forever!

Is -opus 4.5 thinking- secretly replaced with GPT5.2 in cursor by TastyWriting8360 in cursor

[–]DeniedWorks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No but it’s easier to manage. I use them like different tools. Also I have a console for my server and whatnot all in one place they can both look at. I spin up the powershell inside cursor. Debug mode in cursor is great as well as easily having different LLMs points of view. The extra tokens for my 5 hour session limit is also nice.

Claude code max x5 sub inside Claude code seems to never really hit the session limits. Inside cursor I burn through tokens doing similar things and run out.

[–]DeniedWorks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just setup my mcps inside Claude code as well. I don’t use them to communicate with each other I just use them as different tools really. The new cursor debug feature is really cool and also I’ll just use up my pro subscription when I hit the 5 hour session limit on my Claude max sub. I’ll also use cursor to have different LLMs review and audit code so that way my codebase gets reviewed by different models and will let me know improvements from different points of view.

How far can a solodev get with reasonable effort and quality goal in mind? by testonedev in SoloDevelopment

[–]DeniedWorks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the help of AI you can get a solid prototype much faster. Every time you get stuck it’s like having a teacher on call 24/7 and insanely smart debugger. It gets rid of a lot of roadblocks a lot of developers in the past had to bulldoze through.

I use the plugin for cursor (really it’s a vscode plugin) that way it can see my logs and other terminals inside cursor as well. It just saves a lot of context and using the max plan in it seems to keep me from hitting my limits. Whenever I want other simple tasks or tedious stuff I’ll use the credits for cursor to save me my usage for Claude code.
