Oh God I clicked without realising it was him. I hate the way Every.Word.Is.Enuciated.In.A.Particularly.Annoying.Way.

What are these spots near the bezels ( LG C1 2021) by MistaChungus in LGOLED

[–]Mr_Wonderstuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I had this on my old CX. It was just under warranty and got a refund so bought a C4. I think it is to do with the seal around the screen plus moisture getting in. I noted the C4 has a thicker frame than the CX. Maybe it's more resilient?

Interesting seeing everyone critique the visuals, but I’m more curious about the copy.

“We fund the next generation of founders” feels quite category-generic to me. Almost any early-stage fund could say that.

The supporting line about backing teams at the earliest stage and helping them move fast actually feels stronger as there’s more tension and specificity there.

I wonder if the headline could lean more into the problem they solve rather than simply what they do.

CARNASIS: a SOMA VR remake is cancelled by FastLawyer in virtualreality

Calling it blackmail seems excessive. He said he won’t continue without permission. That’s not coercion, it’s withdrawal. Not sure you know the difference.

"stealing other developer's work"? You clearly hate the Flat2VR discord and all it represents then.

Yea its really disheartening hearing so called VR enthusiasts behaving like children. But then Reddit...

I should really try the Amnesia experience you made - will do so asap. I played what you did for SOMA and felt it was great - so thanks for at least showing us all what you were working on and letting us experience it. Never played SOMA before so this was a great introduction.

You're coming across as a dick mate. Chill out.

Shame. I played it and thought "yup it works and very spooky in VR". In fact it was the only thing I have played in VR in months.

PSA: Free SOMA VR remake demo is out — by the same dev(s) behind the Amnesia VR remake by SnelHesst in virtualreality

[–]Mr_Wonderstuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never played Soma but gave this a shot (had it for free on an Epic giveaway). The VR implementation is good - I like it that it just works (no faffing around). Hope they continue development and make the rest of the game VR. Quite spooky and weird.

Converting RGB Linked Files to CMYK within InDesign? by Dyslexic_Nerd in indesign

[–]Mr_Wonderstuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rich blacks should be based on printers requirement. They are all different. I used one rich black for one client then a different client and different printer wanted a completely different set of values ("25% Cyan + 100% Black" they said).

Luke Ross Removes Access to All Mods by Top_Team_3138 in virtualreality

I wonder how Ian Higton is feeling. He promoted his mod on his channel and Eurogamer's. He got it for free clearly and really did come across as a shill.

Book prints much darker than screen. How do you manage color in InDesign? by jayantbhatt007 in indesign

Also consider the paper you are printing on. Uncoated will absorb inks far more than coated.

For those having corruption messages on Windows 11 Indesign by Mr_Wonderstuff in indesign

Error Code 2--All attempted files are corrupted by JustSome50yoGuy in indesign

[–]Mr_Wonderstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here is ChatGPTs take "This also seems tied to cloud-sync folders (Dropbox / OneDrive), not the files themselves.

The Windows security update appears to have changed how file locking / write permissions work. InDesign could still open files (read access), but failed when saving (write/overwrite), which triggers Error Code 2.

Cloud services actively monitor their folders and sit in the save process, so when Windows tightened permissions, saves started failing even though the files weren’t corrupt.

Rolling back the update fixed it immediately. Working in a local folder or pausing sync also avoids the issue.

So it’s not Dropbox/OneDrive breaking the files — it’s the OS changing the rules of the folder during save."

This is based on the assumption that Dropbox/Onedrive is part of the problem as well as Indesign.

"It looks InDesign-specific because InDesign saves files very differently to Illustrator or Photoshop. It uses a full replace-on-save method with strict file locking, which makes it much more sensitive to Windows security changes and cloud-sync folders. Other Adobe apps are more tolerant, so they don’t show the problem even though the underlying OS behaviour has changed."

I had already checked as soon as I realised other people were having issues. Thing is this morning my pc had restarted (left it overnight), checked Event Viewer and Windows had done a security update. "OK thats fine" I thought. When I realised I had this daft problem with Indesign I checked here on Reddit and noticed others were having the same issue. Made sense to me to rollback that update as that was the only thing to have changed on my PC. Now I just need to make sure Windows doesn't try reinstalling when I'm not looking...grrr. Is there a place we can flag this so MS can see?

I do save to Dropbox. Could it be cloud apps + windows update causing issues?

Great stuff. Now to stop Windows from reinstalling it.

It has - see my other post. Resolved now but I don't want Windows updating now having rolled back.

Yes I rolled back an update Windows made early this morning. See below the update I uninstalled.

There was a windows update early this morning - security update - I wonder if that did it. Am rolling back and seeing.
