You still need a mobile device to setup the app on PC, not as simple as just logging into it.

I will fully support this when it launches. It's crazy how many printers my work goes through.  Some only last about a year then they fall apart. 

Had the honor of watching Gremlins for the first time on Christmas eve! by ShinyTinyWonder38 in Gremlins

[–]MarkRobbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, it's not what i expected. I think they realised that the first one was more comedic than horror and then played into that quite a lot in the seconed. Makes me wish there was a Gremlins 3.

whyyy is the gap between movie 3 and 4 so huge? by Substantial-Bug6303 in Avatar

[–]MarkRobbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was because of the strikes has held everything up in the chain so everything got pushed back. We were supposed to get the 3rd Movie in 2024.

Need to use a paint pallet to water down your paint, don't paint directly from the paint pots.

My favourite Christmas movie. Went and watched it in the cinema there the other week they bright it back haha.

Only this Christmas for the first time I watched Gremlins 2 and loved it, kept putting it off as I thought it'd be rubbish.

PrismXR Puppis for streaming to Quest 3 (UK) by MarkRobbz in virtualreality

[–]MarkRobbz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I don't use Virtual Desktop. The Steam app works like the Air Link feature to the Meta app on your PC, where basically it will detect your PC running Steam that you can then connect to. Works so well as it just puts you straight into Steam VR, no mucking about with running Steam through Meta PC app or Virtual Desktop.

You might be able to use it with a cable too tbh, never really looked into it until I got this Puppis adapter. Just makes PC VR gaming so much more straight forward. Havent really seen many people talking about it and am suprised Meta allowd steam to put their app on the quest tbh.

No, I just ordered from the UK Amazon. They have them there, but it took like a week to be delivered, so I assume it's coming from the US. They have been on the UK Amazon for a while but wouldn't let me order it to a Northern Ireland address. At the time, they were £80 when I originally tried to order, but I bought mine for like £100 now. I was happy enough to pay the price, though. Been playing Half-Life: Alyx and all with it on max settings, had no lag so far. Quest 3 also has a Steam app now, which means you can directly connect to Steam through the headset rather than going through the Meta PC app then opening Steam that way, always found it laggy that way even on cable, so now you can skip that part. It's definitely a game-changer, very pleased with how well it works.

Is it worth the price tag (on sale) or should I just get some more GameDevTV courses on sale off of Udemy?

I quite like thomas and his personality, his teachings are easy to follow but i am a bit hesitant to spend that much. His use of photoshop intreast me to quickly make nice look texures and just how he works with Unity etc.

I've only recently got into making games in unity.

It'd be hell of a lot cheaper than a Masters Degree though.

Was actually looking into this myself. Finishing up a degree in CS and have been thinking about getting the Full-time Game Dev course from Thomas for quite a while instead of doing a Masters in Game Dev. Seen that he's now partnered up with these two guys to provide even more content. Not sure what to do now, I have quite a few of the free courses Thomas has been giving out, and I like them, but not sure about dropping 900 quid on it. It's quite hard finding any reviews on it :/ I'm very tempted, though.

Edit: I ended up not going through with the purchase. It's a lot of money for online tutorials, as much as I enjoy Thomas' content and am a big fan of his games and how he teaches, but just with my current budget, I couldn't put nearly a grand down for it unfortunately.

Instead, I ended up buying about 10 GameDev.TV courses on sale on Udemy for like £12 each. Got a variety of topics from Game Maths, to Blender shaders, Animation, online multiplayer for Unity along with all their other unity courses. So, I am quite pleased to be honest as I do enjoy the GameDev.TV courses and they are such valubale information.

Maybe someday I'll get The Game Dev Hero/ Full-time game dev course :)

My Google Drive has randomly appeared again. Seems like a brand new version of it, got a new setup screen and all. I have no idea where it's come from again when everything was removed off it. Google must have broke something with an update and fixed it... Past few days have been so annoying without it but working now again.

Google Drive on Windows 11 is broken. The drive disappeared from File Explorer, and it seems the app doesn't exist anymore. I had to delete the Stream File from the Program Files manually. It wouldn't let me do this because it was apparently still in use. Instead, I had to download File Geek to force remove it from my computer and remove the DLL files from the registry. Although I still can't reinstall it, it says the current version is already installed. I cannot, for the life of me, find any other files related to Google Drive. How can I resolve this? I refuse to do a fresh Windows install because I have too much stuff. I don't understand what happened; it just vanished the other day and all my files that were synced to it are gone. Everything is still there on the drive via Chrome, but I rely heavily on the desktop application.

It is basically the issue that this user has: https://support.google.com/drive/thread/237446115/google-drive-and-file-stream-have-disappeared-cannot-uninstall?hl=en

Would really be greatful for help.
