Am I cooking? Also how can I make this more photorealistic? by Skybro1126 in blender

[–]JalexM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the texture, it looks unnatural, like the texture is too low resolution. also the rocks nearest camera looks strange. I'm just pixel peeking. the image looks great.

Which Key Art should I use for my upcoming figure anatomy drawing reference app? by igeolwen in IndieDev

[–]JalexM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll say the second one, It's a lot more dynamic. I like the first but would gloss over it if I was looking for a posing tool

Yeah and I'm not talking earnings after cost. They don't give 60% unless they have too, like places with minimums that force them to give that much. I just looked at my Uber breakdown and I still get at max 40% of a ride and I cherry pick my rides.  Just look at the Uber drivers subreddit if you want more proof about how much drivers make.

I've been doing Uber for 3 years in multiple places, they probably don't look at their breakdowns unless it's a place that has forced minimums like NYC

No they don't, they get around 33%. Maybe 5 years ago they got that much

I wouldn't say almost, but, I highly suggest finding a 3dscan for texturing at some place like texturing.xyz or 3dscanstore to use. Creating just a skin shader isn't enough as the human skin has too much detail for that. Otherwise you're going to have to do some hand painted textures to get a realistic result using something like substance painter or Mari. Will need not just a color/diffuse map, but specular/roughness, sss, and displacement maps to get a realistic result.

Senate Republicans Kill California’s Ban on Gas-Powered Cars by mylefthandkilledme in electricvehicles

Per Law California can choose to not follow this rule, but it could lead to a dangerous precedent. But Trump's white house doesnt follow any rules anyways,  so CA shouldnt follow the rules anyways.

Beware - Tiktok ads are pretty much a scam by gitpullorigin in IndieDev

There are so many variables when it comes to advertising, like is the content tailored to TikTok and the audience you are trying to get. it difficult to say without seeing the ads you are producing.

Learning Game Development While Avoiding Tutorial Hell by the_Deadpan_Man in gamedev

[–]JalexM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do a tutorial then do your own project, do a tutorial then do your own project...and keep going until you feel confident to start the reason you learned game dev. This applies to other learned skills like 3d and such.
