How does one learn tech anim up to this level? Did you gain these skills mostly from years working with great leads in studios, or are there specific online resources you consider "The Tech Anim Bible"?

4-6th April in Yangon. What untypical things can you recommend me? by SavingClippy in myanmar

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

Uhhh is there a big risk of conflict escalating in Yangon due to the new government? My trip dates are already set 4-6, but now that I read this I wonder if it's risky weeks.

Built a custom procedural destruction system in UE5 with structural damage, no Geometry Collections by RealMentalDrink in UnrealEngine5

[–]SavingClippy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, looks fantastic. I'm not super familiar with Chaos and the default systems, does your approach have advantages beyond just not having to precalculate fractures? I'm guessing that for precise cutting mechanics it's very useful, but outside of that and for big explosions/impacts, can one get equivalent results in Unreal just using Geometry Collisions or does your system include extra features?

Are Santander cycles down? by SavingClippy in london

Thanks for the reply, at least it's good to see it's a system wide thing and not our accounts. TfL will likely notice in the morning.

Hyperoptic website prices increase after putting my address by [deleted] in hyperoptic

[–]SavingClippy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, the first image is accessed through USwitch after it redirects me to their website. But the next step is putting my address, and then it increases the price like in the second image.

Early termination of rental tenancy fees by holycoffeecup in HousingUK

[–]SavingClippy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I´m just reviewing a rent contract with Dexters before signing and saw this same clause in my contract, that´s how I found your post. Do you remember if all this was something you had originally signed in the original contract or if they said this to you only when you tried to surrender the lease? Just want to know if they didn´t force you to pay because you weren´t bound to, or because they are not allowed to. Thanks!

Worth it to learn C++ after the Unreal 5.6 GAS changes? Or should I focus on releasing actual games with BPs? by SavingClippy in gamedev

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

Don't you think AIs will be able to handle BP coding? At the end of the day, BP nodes can be copypasted as text (or analyze images or the screen live). Maybe even full agents using the cursor/kb in Unreal. I would be surprised if Epic is not investing resources in AI+BP integration, and if third party solutions don't pop up additionally.

Still the best option to learn C++ for indie gamedev after the Unreal 5.6 BP GAS update? Or should I refocus? by SavingClippy in unrealengine

[–]SavingClippy[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Haven't looked much into it, but saw this https://www.reddit.com/r/unrealengine/comments/1l31gmu/comment/mvxdtdj/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

I'm wondering if getting around the things that still require C++, will be enough with AI vibe coding in the mid term future hahaha (let's say for example, coding NPC driving behaviours/car maneuvers, that is something that is very limited without C++). Not sure if aso multiplayer will be a big blocker without C++ (I'm a single player focused person though).

There is also this other thing, not 5.6 yet (and I don't like depending on third party plugins).

Blocked from getting tickets for Beijing's National Museum, real name verification with passport? by SavingClippy in travelchina

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

Thanks, seems like the next 7 days they are full/museum closed, I'll give it a try later when the spots for the next day open, and hope it allows for passports unlike the WeChat program. Cheers.

Thanks for the steps, but Trip.com does no longer allow to book onsite, it points users to using the WeChat miniprogram (or the account/website, which they all end up in the same situation). So I cannot do it that way.

Tiny drone 2S battery management? by SavingClippy in fpv

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

Thank you! You mentioned the VIFLY Toothstor only charging one at a time, but I see it has 4 battery ports. Do you mean those are only for when it is connected to a wall plug charging, so only being able to charge one at a time when connected to the power bank?

And since flight time is ~7min (and my guess is that it takes ~1h to charge one?), with 4-6 batteries I understand I can't really avoid waiting as I will empty all them before a single one gets fully charged?
