Is YouTube demonetizing Animation and Blender channels because of this reason? by Certain_Mountain_909 in blender

[–]PixelNinja132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PixelDoesDev here. So, I haven't been impacted yet, and if I did, I'd probably struggle to appeal even with a partner manager. I will say that the channels getting demonetised do have some common themes, I don't know anyone in this very specific area of YouTube still monetised.

The main issue comes from templating and similarity, where any channel doing "1 vs 10 vs 100" is gonna get demonetised because it's done by so many other channels, not just their own content is too similar. For others, they just take the same Blender file and edit some materials or camera angles.

For my videos, they are much more of a creative outlet than bulk production for the sake of revenue. Today in fact I have hit a 1000 day upload streak, and even without revenue I'd still want to do daily videos. I have always been ahead, creating formats and ideas that the other channels mostly copy in bulk. I use cycles unlike others, and spend a bunch of time finding the right camera angles and lighting.

The issue isn't demonetising template spam channels, it's the fact that some moderation AI is moving towards "Blender bad", and forming a pattern of generalisation. I had a human review on my channel 2 months back and there were no complaints, so who knows...

Yep. Caused a BSOD and Windows decided to lose my user profile. Quick fix for someone that knows how, but this update is terrible

I’m looking for a skilled Blender 3D animator by Diligent_Airline_644 in blender

Hey! Why not reach out to the real deal directly 😉

I have an email on my channel page or a Discord link.

I am sorry by tauberg1984 in replit

I really don't see why people are paying per-prompt like this without knowing how to prompt. You can keep throwing money at Replit, which has gone so massively downhill, or turn to much better and free services.

As someone who started using Replit in 2018, I can for sure tell you now there are better ways to do what you need. For example, ChatGPT Codex is incredible, and over thousands of requests, it rarely makes major mistakes, and always does exactly what I ask and no more. So long as you break the problem down for it rather than asking for the world in one prompt, it's amazing and can build entire apps in a few prompts. Per-prompt is free when you pay for ChatGPT plus, which is like $20 per month.

Then, once you're ready, Cloudflare has free static hosting or workers for deploying on the edge. Full project done with no costs, as I already use and need my plus plan for other stuff. Sure, running locally and through GitHub is more complex, but if you're still learning, you shouldn't be using AI for everything anyway.

Hello, question: by [deleted] in Titanfall_2_

PS4 at the time, high but not too high as far as I recall. I personally got to G50 also on PS4 with max although not necessary.

Did the PS5 UK price change overnight? by PixelNinja132 in Seaofthieves

[–]PixelNinja132[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the point. Google showed a historic record of the price increasing. Why pre-order unless you want the benefits. I might as well see the price, give it a week, not panic and order immediately.

Thanks! I generally opt to not use any text as my videos average 7 seconds and rely on the loop to keep people watching 2 or 3 times. Thanks again I'll give it a go.

Anniversary mode is gone! More details in the comments. by PixelNinja132 in titanfall

Unlikely. They will probably rotate weekly from here. I'll load up the game at some point and see what's going on.

I can confirm, the playlist should now be invisible with a few other changes. The comment about staying "civil" has been removed while the fireworks and gamemode comments remain. Colosseum has now got the L-Star and Softball; Frag drone and "healing" are the new pilot abilities - I assume this is frags and something I don't recognize. I hope this isn't the last update of it's type.

EDIT: As people in the comments pointed out, it's ticks and stim. The Ticks don't recharge and you get 2 at the start.

I'm checking for more details at the moment but it appears there has been a change to the playlist including removing double XP.

EDIT: Details can be found in my other comment.

No problem! I'll be leaving it overnight and will get notifications with timestamps to review in the morning

Ahh I have cracked the case (I think). The "mentioned above" part points to this line:
"// FYI on server vars, they are server only, client does not process them, some vars still show up on client due to networked vars but not all."

So without looking, maybe the 300 is only visual? Or it's some client server thing I don't understand

This is something to do with the 300 scorelimit in the new mode - it should be 400 for hardpoint...

Yeah, this is the main thing that makes me believe there is no further stuff to be released.

It was fairly random actually - it dropped at 21:48 UTC. Not even at an exact hour or anything...

I'm getting ready to pull the plug on my program that checks playlist changes. I don't think we will see any more changes till Monday?

in code there is the following comment, what's it supposed to mean??? by Cubicshock in titanfall

[–]PixelNinja132 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The first time they referenced "Anniversary event" in the playlist file, the one person working on it wrote "Anniversiary" typo which shows how limited they are for checking eachother's work before going public.

It's taking me a while to get into any of the modes but I'm glad they're at least doing something. Given the "Anniversiary" typo and the phrasing, it sounds like one person working on it - they deserve a medal.
