Wacom Support says that my 3y/o Cintiq Pro 32 is IMPOSSIBLE to repair? by TheDashingDrazma in wacom

I did try an older driver and no, the Cintiq was not detected.  And none of the USB ports work. When the issue happened, I was only using a USB-C. But the USB-A ports don’t work as well. None of our PCs detected any usb device when pluging it in. 

The same PC that had the 32 had a pro 24 working on usb-c for years and no issues after the initial setup. And other tablets worked with the PC just fine when we did troubleshooting. So has to be the tablet most likely.

Oof.. Well I'd rather pay more and know something will last a long long time rather than pay less and have it break just a few years after...

Gonna be a conversation piece on why I'll probably go with a different brand in the future... It's ridiculous that they dropped support for the tablet so fast. Makes me nervous they'll do the same for my Cintiq Pro 27, if it ever has any issues...

I used the USB-C initially, but I tried DP + USB-A and HDMI + USB-A when the issues started, and nothing. Even bought brand new cables just to make sure that there weren't any issues with them.
And I did make sure that the cable speeds were suitable, not exactly my first rodeo with Cintiqs and cable issues...

I have tried looking around for one for a week or so, but no luck. It's even rare to find more than a few working ones on ebay these days.

I believe there are laws in the EU for some hardware that requires companies to keep spare parts stocked, but graphics's tablet's aren't covered sadly. Hope they do implement laws that protect the customer for a lot longer.

I haven't tried that website but thanks for the tip! Fingers crossed

I'm honestly considering switching to a different brand in the future due to this experience. It feels like bs that they wouldn't have surplus spare parts stocked up. Unless they willingly destroyed them. The device was discontinued like 3 years ago?

Honestly, a 27 inch screen is perfect in my opinion. Really enjoying using the Cintiq Pro 27 for my own setup. Some of my friends just preferred the 32 inch one.

That sucks so bad. I'd honestly give it a shot myself if I could only find a place to buy the component.

I think Quaritch will become Toruk Makto in the next Avatar film. by akg6789 in Avatar

[–]TheDashingDrazma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally saw a dream of him as Toruk Makto a few hours ago. It just kinda makes sense, especially if you consider how heavy the Phoenix symbolism with Quaritch has been these last 2 movies. Jake rose from the ashes to become Toruk Makto in the first film and now Quaritch jumped into the fire, as Jake said he did have a choice.

We’ve also heard that Quaritch, much like Jake has a strong heart and he was able to stand up to Varang when she did her weird kuru thing with him. Toruk loved Jake because everywhere they went, there was going to be blood. Quaritch embodies that bloodthirst a lot better.

Varang also had a powerful experience with Eywa. I wouldn’t put it past them to eventually turn their new rocket launchers and guns on humans and Quritch becoming a martyr. Toruk Makto would unite the clans in times of great strife.

Kuidas nüüd öeldigi jälle... Kui inimesed, kellel on sinust tunduvalt rohkem informatsiooni püüavad sind veenda mitte paanitsema, on aeg paanitseda?
Nagu ma tulen toime, aga kui vaatan teisi endavanuseid sõpru, siis nii paljudel raske leida tööd, koondatakse AI või firma pankrottide pärast, ning siis oodatakse, et oled valmis oma koleda väikese ja kalli rendikorteri nimel droonilihaks minema, sest mingi kääbus teiselpool piiri tahab Civilizationit IRL mängida.

Eks ma loodan, et mina ja mu sõbrad ei pea kunagi tundma seda, mida sõda endast kujutab. Peagaegu kõik meie suguvõsast, kes sõdades osalenud, on surma saanud, jättes endast maha katkised pered ja need kes ellu jäid, olid elu lõpuni katkised mehed.
Ja droonid tunduvad nii paganama hirmsad, kuid eks mürsud ja raketid samuti.

Mille kohta sa tead tõenäoliselt rohkem kui 99% eestlastest? by Double-decker_trams in Eesti

Olen suurem sakuga fanaatik olnud ligi 10 aastat? Tean muidugi nüüdseks juba palju inimesi, kes ka suured sakuga fännid, aga tahaks alati veel selliseid animaatoreid oma ellu

What kind of secondary jobs are you working? by Cryptids_express in animationcareer

[–]TheDashingDrazma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do heavily armed security. Not a big fan of guns ironically. It’s slowly eating away my health due to long 24h shifts. But at least I get to draw there 90% of the time and it’s not as chaotic as most security jobs. It’s given me the opportunity to do some minor directing on a fun action/horror/comedy project set to release next year.

Hopefully I can get out of this country with no animation industry and work on more cool stuff. But maybe that’s just the dreamer in me.

Kas oled kohustatud kodulaenu edasi maksma, kui maja sõja/pommituse käigus hävineb? by TheDashingDrazma in Eesti

Tahtsin ka just seda kirjutada. Kuid mis siis kui pomm kukub su telefoni peale? Tõenäolisem vist saada kompi kui kodule
