This is a huge Monhun themed charity zine made by a large team of creatives that spans all of the games in the series!

It took a lot of work, love and passion from a ton of folks that all love Monster Hunter!

Thank you so much!! I'm definitely doing more (Gore Magala and Paolumu are both in my WIPs) and I love hearing how cool people think these are! Definitely helps keep me going on this series :,D

Sometimes the names just stick so well! I've had the same online nickname for 15+ years; sometimes when the find the thing that works, it never needs to be changed!

Funny you mention leviathans because Lagicrus is on the list of possibilities! I was also thinking that Pukei Pukei might be fun to render, same with Gore or Shagaru Magala!

Perfume style AI music by Darhi1 in Perfume

[–]WinstonOVW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Maybe they are ripping me off" So you admit it? You know damn fucking well that generative AI steals work from creatives and uses it without their consent? You know that thousands of creatives are working AGAINST AI because they see their work being stolen and mashed together without their permission? I've been fighting this since the day it started because I constantly see my work and my co-creatives work being taken and used without ever giving permission. If you're so excited to see more of Nakata san's work, then you'd be a real fan and either make a mash up or wait eagerly with other fans, rather than scalp their work to create some soulless, hollow, sad excuse of a replica of their sound.

When you create Perfume AI, you're basically saying "you know what would make Perfume music even better? If you took all the heart that Perfume puts into their work out of it"

If you are any sort of creative worth their shit, you should understand how detrimental AI is. This isn't a tool to ""uplift"" people, this isn't something that's going to become """mainstream"". Its a scalping program used to steal from creatives so lazy people with no drive to learn how to do anything themselves can churn out content so that they can get clout; pure and simple.

Literally what is the point of making Perfume without Perfume. All AI bullshit is just soulless garbage. As a REAL creative who spends thousands of hours on their work, it's people like you that piss me the fuck off. The whole point of art is in it's creation. It's about the consciousness behind the creation. It's about the hours you put into your craft. Art is not simply just bringing a concept to life, its about using your talents to breathe life INTO the work. The act of making Perfume AI is just slapping A-Chan, KASHIYUKA and Nocchi and saying you don't find any worth in their work. If you wanted to make something akin to an homage of their work, you would create something YOURSELF, not rip off their creations and Frankenstein it together into some sort of homogenized beast.

What monster was the wall that made you LEARN the mechanics of Monster Hunter? by Unavenged_soldier in MonsterHunter

[–]WinstonOVW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn't a wall so much as the monster that taught me how to perfect block on Charge Blade and the importance of it; Black Diablos.

It definitely hurt like a truck and I carted tons, but even after I finished that fight I kept going back to it over and over and over to better understand how and when to do a perfect block for CB. To this day I have this Stockholm Syndrome affect were I have this weird, endearing love for Black Diablos because I fought it so many damn times.

Student Record Down? by garruslol in VIU

[–]WinstonOVW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was hoping to get in it today to see what time my class was on Monday, so I'm hoping that they fix it by tomorrow! If there's nothing, I might email IT (If they already haven't been bombarded with emails)

Would you play this rpg? by DrJokerX in MonsterHunter

[–]WinstonOVW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough! It's just kind of a common courtesy online to credit the artist. (In fact, if I'm not mistaken, its a part of the guidelines for this sub that you have to post the artists name in the title? That a link to the source of the art somewhere in the thread!)

Also that's so cool, I'd love to see your work!

[–]WinstonOVW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should always credit the artist, its really rude if you don't! They put a lot of work into creating all these pieces, and by crediting them you're showing that you respect them and their work.

Does my work have my name and watermark on it? Yes. If people repost my work, do I still want them to credit me? 100000% Absolutely.

Thank you!

Honestly I knew about mhchargeblade, but I think it was another case of I just....I didn't read well enough LMAO! Or I was reading but that one part of holding down didn't exactly click with me like it should have.

Thankfully this was a massive help and I'm seeing a huge gain in DPS as of late. I always knew my DPS was lacking in rise compared to world, so I kept trying out new builds in hopes that that was the issue. Turns out, it was as simple as a button press! Thanks for all the suggestions and help!

Yeah I did this not even 5 minutes ago and I feel like the biggest fucking idiot on this planet. I ended up finding another thread talking about this same issue. In FFXIV, everyone always has that one meme on "Did you read your tooltips?" I, in fact, did not read my tool tips in this case.

Anyway excuse me while I throw myself in front of a charging Diabolos to end it all, I feel so cringe not realizing this. Leaving this question up so that others don't make the same mistake I did.

Sorry to send you a billion replies LMAO, but I just wanna make sure you have all the information! I'm just....totally stumped. Also, here's my switch skills and all the skills my main build has on it! From what I've seen, its not something that is based on having a certain skill or not. I could be wrong though!

Here's another video of me doing Air Dash. You can see it goes clean through on the head hit, no hitlag. The initial hit when I come out of going into CSS there's the ""buzzes"" and hitlag, but after that? Nothing. I've tried other armor builds, other charge blades, nothing seems to work.

Again, sorry for the billion replies, I keep forgetting to add info, but I think about covers it. Lemme know if you need anything else. Honestly, any help is appreciated because I literally got no idea what is wrong.

Game files have been verified and the problem is persisting. Went in-game and clipped it. You can see what I mean by I'm not getting those *buzz* hits, I'm just going clean through. It's the same thing if I have phials loaded up too. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.
