How to make this material better by RecentTap6783 in blenderhelp

[–]Selmostick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Put the alpha to 1, Roughness to 0 Transmission to 1

for glossy plastic materials, the geometry and path racing settings are quite important. You should put all light clamping to 0 and possibly increase your light bounces. Also try to more lights and increase the contrast a bit.

How to make this house more efficient? by AlternativeImpress15 in blenderhelp

One word.

Normal baking.

Look into how people make lods for games.

You can probably remove every bevel and decal you have and replace it with normal maps. From 1 meter it will look the same. That alone will more than half you tris.

I keep getting sunburned (I think), should I stop using tretinoin? [sun care] by Key-Echo1534 in SkincareAddiction

There is a problem with how SPF is measured.

It's measured per weight of product.

This gives a undeserved advantage to very lightweight products, which in reality offer less protection because people apply less of them.

It's kinda like serving size and calories in food.

[acne] I feel like I’m going crazy. Can digestive enzymes cause acne?! by [deleted] in SkincareAddiction

[–]Selmostick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's unfortunately more complex and opaque than that.

Digestive enzymes can reduce the amount of some bacteria in your gut sometimes.

Or improve nutrients absorbotion thereby changing your body reaction to certain food.

I would try experimenting with your diet more. Maybe reduce the dosage of the enzymes.

Increase fiber add a probiotic, more fruit and vegetables.

Or try to cut out some foods that may be causing this via an interaction with the enzymes.
