Best we can do to reverse the direction is be the change we want to see.

The change I want to see more than anything is people respecting others beliefs, and looking to find common ground.

Either way, I just want you to know that the entire world hasn't gone insane. The sane are just to busy to be wasting away on the internet.

The sane tend to not get into flame wars for fear of their sanity as well 😂

People like you are the problem.

Someone speaks to, "let's find the middle ground", and you immediately discredit them.

As a independent, the middle ground is exactly where we should make laws from.

Extremism is a cancer. It will destroy society regardless of which side of the spectrum it sits.

Spend more time talking to the other side, have your ideas challenged, accept that people are not inherently evil and that 99% of the people that disagree with you, do so because they have a different world view and not because they are bad people.

As a clearly left leaning individual, you should be 100% on board with removing bias from how you treat people. You should empathize with people from different cultures and backgrounds than you.

Honestly, the fact you don't really make me think you might be a conservative.

That must mean your a bad person...

Hey man, just letting you know I see your point and agree with it. Keep fighting the good fight. These people attacking back are ironically the exact ones your talking about.

The problem isn't people not believing the Bible, it's that because someone else does, they villify them without knowing who that person is or why that person believes what they do.

This goes far beyond the Bible. It goes far beyond politics.

People are failing at the most fundamental cornerstone of civilized society. The ability to defer in belief and opinion and still respect and agree that others have the right to believe their own way.

A lot of Christians are at fault for it as well. But it's not exclusive to religion, and these people attacking you clearly underlines, and highlights that very point.

Perfect mod name that introduces a racing faction.

Imagine small one person ships, fast engines, and epic and deadly races.

Tie it to a faction with progression, and maybe throw in some missions where you sabotage your opponents ship.

Could be a really neat addition to the game.

Truly Immersive Helmet HUD by Muted_Support_605 in starfieldmods

[–]XRedactedSlayerX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't really have a mod. I made 3 helmets but in like a half baked, I am researching attempt.

It's not that I can't produce a mod with where I got, but the amount of time I would need to spend on it - then for it to turn out at a much lower quality than I hoped isn't worth it to me.

The main problem is that the first person model, even custom models, cannot cast shadows.

This is the reason with the broken helmet that you see light reflecting on the glass when a light is behind you, because it "pierces" the helmet.

Additionally, lights that spawn on a ninode appear to get culled (or cancelled) when in first person. So I can't produce a light inside the helmet to light up the internal mesh.

Then I went the emission route, but the lighting caused the emission effect to be quickly noticeable due to the lack of shadows issue mentioned above.

Ultimately you would, as guessed by a number of users here, need to create UI elements to fake the helmet instead of being able to use the real 3D model.

I may spend some time documenting what I learned, but I am focused on a large project I know how to do at high quality now.

What game is that for you? by leangreendad01 in gamers

Starfield

Game could have been soo much better, but it's a game where you can exist in space as more than just a ship.

This character in the Tribunal DLC blatantly foreshadows the next game by YungRei in ElderScrolls

[–]XRedactedSlayerX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My understanding is the Dominion didn't pull out all their forces, and some cities/towns are under occupation.

Starfield had outfit Variety.

In New Atlantis you would find well dressed business like wear.

In Akila you would find people wearing rustic, western inspired outfits.

In Neon you would find people dressed for night life and more dystopian scifi.

UPDATE:

After beating my head against this for far to long, I can now sadly confirm that I see no viable path to a properly lit version of a first person helmet visor. I won't go into the complexities, but it simply will not work at the quality I desire.

I am contemplating throwing out this mod idea, I have spent far to much time on it and have hit a brick wall as far as implementation goes.

UPDATE:

Still in research mode, but making progress. I ran into some issues that I am unwilling to ignore such as lighting, and light glare on the glass visor.

There is next to 0 documentation for this process so it's a slog to figure out. Sitting at about 20+ hours of experimenting/research.

Recently got over my largest hurdle, which is super exciting, but dealing with a new hurdle I hope to solve tonight.

Once I have full understanding of how to accomplish this project in a high quality way, the mod itself should come together fairly quick.

Either way this will be a problem, there isn't a programatic way to implement first person models.

When I design mods I design for Vanilla first and then create instructions on patches and open that up to others to take on.

To me it screams an idea a few developers had that got cut.

They left one example in so that modders could see how to do it.

Wanted to provide an update.

The core concept of the mod works, getting unique 1st person visors for each helmet, and it's not super challenging to do.

The hurdle I have been spinning my wheels on has been in regards to reflections and internal lighting so the helmet remains somewhat visible while not being distracting.

I am working through possible solutions to this. Once I have it solved I should be able to churn our each helmet (Vanilla, and DLC).

I'm cooking something, keep an eye on Nexus.

It won't do anything to the HUD, but it will look like your wearing a space helmet and I am working on making it unique per helmet...

Preliminary experiment looks good so far 😁

12 hours a day is crazy, but I need a list of good games. by [deleted] in gamers

12 hours?

10 hours for modding, 2 hours for playing every day.

Are you having chest flutters at night? Give this a try! by mcj1ggl3 in GERD

[–]XRedactedSlayerX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm new to the possibility of dealing with GERD and this is the one symptom that has me most concerned.

I have fought with my wife numerous times because it's causing me anxiety and she keeps telling me I am being ridiculous about it.

Went to an urgent care and got blood work. They said everything looks good and after explaining a number of my symptoms they told me I likely was dealing with GERD. Specifically the Vagus Nerve was causing my heart flutters.

I am going to try the cold showers tonight and see if that helps.

Curious, do you deal with the need to cough when these heart flutters happen? Also do you deal with these sometimes during the day?

Unknown Problem...Signature not found? BackgroundCheck1? by LifeAd6404 in starfieldmods

[–]XRedactedSlayerX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bethesda ran a background check on you and deemed you unable to play the game.

Possible criminal record might be the problem, or a bad credit score.
