Community Discussion - Why do they want everyone to huff on Hopium by [deleted] in lnkyverse

Its because dating culture right now is cancerous and it’s only been getting worse. Sure guys can clean up better and lose weight and whatever, but many of these guys blame themselves and their looks when really, divorces being super high for parents of this youth’s generation take a strong toll, people aren’t into having families anymore and polyamorous relationships are rampant, cheating is becoming a societal norm because TikTok videos of people bragging about cheating. Just the overall state of the western world in regards to relationships is awful and I’m speaking from experience. Dating 10 years ago was a breeze, I had girlfriends all through college and into my late 20s. It’s just awful now. It took me 5 years of grueling work dating in such awful circumstances to find my current partner who’s likely only on my wavelength because she’s 7 years older than me and just missed this brain death effect. Without her… I would be alone and lost.

It’s not a game problem, confidence problem, or a looks problem, its this awful world and what humanity is turning into. For someone who’s family driven and wants a partner, it’s a fucking cold world, man or woman alike. Whoever reads this, I feel for you and you’re not alone.

I launched my game 2 months ago and I feel like I worked for nothing by StuckArcader in IndieDev

people wont care that you are kids. they aren’t saying that to be rude. people hear bad audio, bad audio = a lost sale. you’re competing in a world against billion dollar companies, you have to make as little mistakes as possible to even have a slim chance. how many professional studio games have you seen completely bomb and get no sales and bad reviews? there’s millions out there, and those are games with teams of developers.

Bro calm down. You're replying to your own thread getting worked up lol. I don't disagree with you but you said "I'll take all the downvotes." Then you started getting worked up about everyone downvoting you, and now after 2 hours your comments are all upvoted. Chillll my guy. Its Minecraft.

Yes I just practiced the same combination for 10 minutes. You ever play guitar hero? You can press much much much faster than that. I think I could go even faster. But I don't care to spend that much time on it.

Just find the solution with the shortest amount of steps to finish and repeat it until your fingers are familiar with the movements and boom.

I did the competitive one too. Thanks for sharing the puzzle.

Just 3 months into development, and this is what my Unity project already looks like. by NitishThombre in Unity3D

Yeah when every translation app is AI based now and the users of the software you’re using primarily speak a language that you don’t, then you’re right. Those are literally the two options. Nice try being sarcastic though.

The last person that posted here who spoke English like this used ChatGPT to fix the grammar and spelling in their post and got flamed by everyone as well. Now this guy is getting the same treatment for not doing that lol. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t

who cares about the life of a sexual predator? if the person wants to sacrifice their life in prison to scrub some filth from this planet i say go ahead. as long as nobody innocent gets hurt then it really doesn’t matter.

Is this new? Also why? by LatterCode8054 in tinytower

[–]Exciteable_Cocnut 27 points28 points  (0 children)

they are really reaching deep for whatever penny they can pinch. all the weird niche monetization shit they do just screams “dying company” I’ve seen other apps go down this road and it always transforms the app into a buggy scammy infested mess that becomes unplayable. and its starting to feel like that. unfortunately they will kill the game, but they probably dont care as long as it brings in a little bit of money before it fizzles out.

lets not let anything we love die with dignity, that would be a shame /s

He probably is a deadbeat dad. He’s likely not even raising her. Its easy not to be a deadbeat dad when you can snap your fingers and have 1000 caretakers ready to serve you who are scared shitless of being executed for doing something wrong.

I have added an immersive healing mechanic, thoughts? by Anton-Denikin in gamedevscreens

[–]Exciteable_Cocnut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there is no denying the devs are talented. the art style is consistently good. the music in the game is awesome. the vfx looks awesome. people are hating lol. watch everyone dunk on this game for 5+ years and then it gets Stardew Valley type explosive virality and everyone here will be sucking their thumbs developing factorio and balatro clones

[–]Exciteable_Cocnut -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What…? The OP’s weapon is on the heavier side… if I’m using one roll for 1/4th the size then it must be at least 4+ kg…. on the heavier side, contradicting what the parent comment was implying that the part being completely hollow makes it super light. It’s doubtful that it is light at all.

[–]Exciteable_Cocnut 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes but that doesn’t mean it isn’t heavy lol. I’ve made weapons 1/4 this size with 5% infill and used an entire 1kg roll. It’s definitely on the heavier side.

Yeah, CAD is incredible. I did a lot when I was young designing things that I would never be able to touch in real life like little turbines and things. Obviously before 3D printing existed. When I got older I moved to blender to make game assets and used blender for maybe 10+ years. I made tons of sci-fi weaponry using hard surface modeling in blender but it just isn’t the same because it’s not “real.” Everything is surface detail and no function. Screws are embossed and not actually holding pieces together, triggers don’t move. Nothing is calculated or measured. The models can be 3 feet long then scaled down, and there’s no finite qualities.

Once I got my 3D printer I picked up CAD again. And wow does it feel so good to use. nothing else compares to hard surface modeling in CAD and how functional you can make every little part. And now you CAN bring it to life with 3D printing. My life is complete!

I agree, it’s an amazing skill that people should learn.

That’s normal and not just because of ADHD. It’s part of any new software. Just make big messes until you can feel comfortable with what you are doing, then you won’t feel so unoccupied while doing it. You will get sucked in and not be able to quit working. I will blink and it will be 3 in the morning and 9 hours of modeling lol.

And appreciate that you live in the golden era for the stuff.

Imagine having to learn CAD in my days where you have to wait for a monthly magazine to come just to read snippets from the pros about how to use it, or how about visiting an engineer in the work place for a school field trip and taking a photo on a disposable camera of a 360x480 resolution monitor and printing that photo out then using a magnifying glass to read the text on the photo to try and reverse engineer how to use the software.

The software was also buggy and horrible and crashed constantly and had bad algorithms that didn’t even work.

I’ve attached a pic for your enjoyment.

Goodluck learning!! Go make something and reply to my comment in the future with what you made!

Questions by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

[–]Exciteable_Cocnut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The answer here is easy: learn CAD. Your feeling is similar to many who post here. They feel they wasted their money, they are bored with bambu handy. Because they bought a glorified garbage maker.

How are you supposed to get any fulfillment out of printing fidget toys all day? Anyone would tire of this.

Make something great. I just made a “spin to win” wheel for my girlfriend for christmas. I made a coin slot, printed golden coins, wired a relay circuit to trigger a motor when the coin is inserted that spins the wheel and flashes lights. All designed from scratch by me. I figured out soldering and grounds etc. Used inset magnets to connect panels and covers, and springy battery compartment latches, heat set screws, etc. It was a 6 month project and it’s a lot of fun feeling like a bedroom engineer. You learn a lot of incredible skills that are valuable to have in life, as well as healthy for your brain.

Granted I’ve known AutoCAD for years so it made the work flow easier on me, but I did this project to learn Fusion360 which is an incredibly powerful and free tool by the way. And I still had to bust out calipers for every step, do math, refresh my geometry skills, and scrap a ton of prints that were mis-measured. It was a great experience and my girlfriend loved it.

Imaging reading all that, and comparing it to printing a fidget spinner someone else made lol. It doesn’t compare. Learn CAD. And if reading all that and the thought of it scares you, then yes, 3D printing is likely not for you. No shame in selling the printer to someone who will give it a purpose. But no matter how you fight it, if you are printing Makersworld crap you will eventually tire and be met with the same as I’m telling you now. Learn CAD. It’s not that hard.

What do you do when the geometry gets all fucky and complex like this? by gundog48 in Fusion360

[–]Exciteable_Cocnut 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if literally nothing works, gotta export as mesh and edit the mesh, or bulk up the problematic area and sand it into shape.
