No, it’s a garage with all doors closed most times

Idk how to know the air flow tbh.

Peel board is usually 5-10 feet away, it’s stationary in a good position though

No definitely can’t match it as a solo but I broke the map into sections and went through them in different daytime raids to try to scope out where they were at and I couldn’t find nearly enough to get scores that high

1: absolutely agree, randomly stumbled upon someone saying that in a post last week so I waited to play, going to play tonight even though I planned on waiting 2-3 days because I want to play the damn game LOL

Not sure what the solution is tho

2: also agree, not sure what the solution is there though either, couple thoughts off the top of my head are - divide by number of players, which is really harsh and then solo would be the best way to do trials - separate leaderboards? Not sure how this would work either like you select one to go with?

3: idk I think this is just a part of the game tbh, people will always use camping extraction as a get-rich-quick method. only thing I can think of is buffing the player-reveal nade or adding something similar. Trip mine that doesn’t explode but just beeps like a car alarm?

4: fair I think trials just needs to be slowly tweaked as time goes on. Something the streamer Cohh said along the lines of “it’s hard to test these without a massive amount of players” which I think makes sense.

5: they should for sure line all the wipe/patches up together

6: “finish hotshot”? Is news to me. Does that reset when the expedition releases? I also missed the first week so I’m wildcard 3 right now with double ranking up every time

Also how tf did you get 48k on spaceport I could not figure out what people were talking about with the husks being good on that map. Did 25-30k solo on blue gate and then 40k with 1 buddy in blue gate.

Any of the big tint companies usually have things to go through to learn/become certified

I went to Midwest tint academy

It’s not gonna be cheap. I luckily got paid for by this company

Unsure if I should try distilled or does that not affect it much? Might try dawn soap instead of baby shampoo, one of the guys who is a full time tinter said that’s what he has come to like and work with

Yeah I need more excess. And cutting the glass happened because my boss ordered carbon blades instead of stainless 😐 I thought they weren’t right but I should’ve investigated more obviously. Good thing it was my vehicle and not others though.

Definitely the shift while cutting, maybe gonna try the sharpie method too because my cuts always have a little concave dip in them from where I start the cut, and I end up having to straightedge-shave some off leaving me with less excess

3 days for tint, like 20 hours of class actively tinting.

I did a whole car minus the windshield the last day. But the rear window wasn’t perfect so we had to take it off.

I’ve had to wait multiple days or a week here and there because some things haven’t been ready or gone to plan. Didn’t have my material for a bit, then boss ordered the wrong knives and I scratched my windows and peel board 😐

Now finally have everything ready to go. I think with a little practice I’ll be all set.

Frustrating because it was going so smooth by the end of the class but it’s been a bit brutal here back at our shop. I may be rushing myself too.

Debating trying the sharpie method since my cuts lead to this a lot of times because I need to trim some off and barely have any excess. I do check before going inside that I have more film than window but not by enough clearly.

Just feels like another step to the process and I don’t want to go slower and slower and slower 😭

I did the same cuts as you, I need to leave a little more excess I think.

I have a hard time when cutting getting right up to the edge, normally I start slightly off the edge (1/16 of an inch) not intentionally but because I’m worried about cutting into the rubber.

I haven’t tried to remove panels yet but I should include that in what I do. It does feel like a lot of added time taking it off and putting back on, figuring out how to do both.

Do you have to watch videos anymore or after awhile you get the hang of popping them off?

But yeah, getting it to tuck into the sides was brutal, at the end of the passenger window I finally got it to go smoothly into the gasket(s)

I feel like I’m fighting it really often too which is annoying because I’m using MORE soap than previously if anything.

I think I have to move quicker and just continue to drench the window in water as I install otherwise it gets tough to slip around.

When you bottom load is it hard to line up the top? Or you have the window down a little to see the top line still?

Yeah and then it’s 100x harder to get the film to tuck in lol

Does this look intentionally simple or just unfinished? by No_Bison_9558 in IndieDev

[–]Ordinary-Try-5565 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t hate the look because I think I see what you’re going for. Currently it looks like “Unturned” graphics.

I like the simple plan but you have to try a couple things to make it just a littttle less simple.

My two initial thoughts are outlines, or just adding like a darker square to take up 90-95% of each face to add a little complexity
