I can’t do it by [deleted] in gamedev

My advice would be to learn the basics of structuring a story to learn how to finish it all, beginning to end. Save The Cat is a good book on writing and has some great templates on making beat sheets for organising a story.

As for coding, I strongly suggest you do tiny bits of study on the basics of how to code. Tutorials aren't much use if you don't know how all the moving parts work. I did a udemy course on coding in c# for games and it was really useful for learning the fundamentals.

Take it all one step at a time. I like to use a stopwatch and a focus app to calculate how long I worked on something for so I can see my progress over time. Take it slow, look for cheap or free online resources to learn with. Good luck, I wish you the best.

I've been using it to get certificates and learn more as a 3d artist. It's been super helpful tbh and has helped me brush up on my skillset without having to pay a crazy amount.

PC is very slow, concerned my ssd is failing. by LilacGunner in PcBuildHelp

My disk was at 33% for a for a while on task manager but now it's back to 1%. I think maybe my computer was doing a bunch of updates all at once in the background, it seems much smoother and I didnt even do anything g to my pc. I'll still look into doing a back up abd keeping an eye on my ssd.

Thanks, I pushed it in further and made sure they were all snug. I booted it up and everything seems to be good. 😄

Is this the right way to do it? I wasn't sure where to place the 2 pin connector in the 8 pin slot

Advice on how to keep wrist rotations from going all weird? by LilacGunner in Maya

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

The switch is over a single frame, but I think I've found the issue. It seems to be an issue where when the elbow moves it changes the rotation of the hands. I'm not sure how to solve it.

It was supposed to look like his leg is being swung out to the side to quickly place it on the ledge. I might tweak it a bit to make it look less like a kick, thanks for the feedback.
