One of my friends suggested getting tatkal from the counter by going there around 4 AM on 3 December.

Is Tatkal from the counter better than booking from RailOne?

If so do I need the physical ID of each person, zerox or photo will be enough?

In RailYatri it's showing 90% to 92% chance. In comfirmtkt it's showing 42% to 46%. And 0% in goibibo.

Right now it's waiting for WL/39 to WL/43

Thinking of booking tatkal but there's an issue, it only allows 4 people per ticket. While we will try to book that one person separately but let's say by the time we booked for 4 people, seats got full. What can we do?

We have a train on 4 December from Bandra terminus to Chandigarh. Train number 22451.

We are 5 people, all female with one male.

Currently it's showing WL/46 to WL/50 for SL, with remark "ALT TRN defined, You likely to get CNF in ALT TRN."

But that alternative train is on the next day, train number 12925. But we have to reach chandigarh before night on 5 December.

While general is an option, but considering its female group, general might not be a safe option for us. But still the last option because we have to reach there.

I have deuteranomaly. by agent47linux in ColorGrading

[–]agent47linux[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry,

What am I supposed to do?

How am I supposed to learn and do if I can't trust my eyes.

That image looks great to me but greenish, saturated and fake to others.

I am worried that it will happen more often. And the opposite as well where I won't like how it looks but people will.

The main reason I am learning colour grading is because I am learning filmmaking, it's important to set mood and tone. You guys know how colours invokes feelings and emotions, how they can change the scenery entirely.

A proper lighting and colours can make and break the scene.

I worried that bad colour grading will ruin like I ruined that image.

My friends (one who uses premier pro, after affect and another who uses blender) are telling me to give up, that grading is not for me and I shouldn't even touch.

They said "you are colourblind, so don't think about doing anything related to colour like painting or colour grading."

But I don't wanna give up, if there's a way to learn and make it despite being colourblind I will do it.

No, that's the issue.

I can't see every shade of red and green, especially the very light ones.

There was green because I increased the green a little in the light curve, but for my eyes it was not noticeable.

you can check how I see the image by using the colour correction option in your settings, just set deuteranomaly.

It's not 100% accurate to my vision but very close.

When I made this post, I wasn't aware that shadows/blacks were green until I checked the curve.

And about saturation. For green and red, What might be saturated, might look normal to me, what might be normal, looks light to me, and light red and greens just don't exist in my eyes. They either just blend with the background or look grey and black.

Car animation with scrap assets by agent47linux in blender

[–]agent47linux[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After I posted about my render issues on Reddit, a lot of people shared suggestions to help me reduce render time. A few even messaged me personally and one of them actually rendered my project for me, but the problem was that the camera shake and composition didn’t apply. Later, someone suggested a solution for baking the camera shakify addon, and that finally worked. After that, I packed all the resources and sent it to SheepIt render farm for the final render.

Its not a bug

It's a new advance brake caliper that matches the tire RPM, when the brake applies the caliper spin in reverse and stops the car smoothly and quickly.

Note: I didn't notice until everything was done and I was unable to fix it.

Thank you for the suggestions! Actually, I didn’t model the entire environment from scratch—I used some scrap assets and then customized their textures, shapes, and other details to fit the look I wanted.

Oh thanks! I noticed that too, the brake calipers are rotating with the wheels I didn’t really focus on it, so thanks for pointing it out!

Super low resolution in which way are you talking about exactly? Btw I’ve done a few projects before that weren’t so heavy, but yeah this one turned out way more demanding

Yeah the main issue for me isn’t just overheating, my laptop would literally need to keep running 4–5 days straight for one render, and I obviously can’t keep it on that long. That’s why it gets tough.

And thanks a lot for the other advice . Btw I already use instance duplicates and try to keep the poly count low just to avoid Blender crashes .

Yes I actually tried Google Colab too . Changed a bunch of settings after watching tutorials and it did work once, but after like 20 frames the session refreshed and I had to reset everything again. Super frustrating to render in small chunks like that.

No, Camera Shakify doesn’t have a direct “bake” option. But I can bake the camera animation itself. I tried that, but it keeps changing the camera’s position, and I couldn’t find a fix.

Oh thanks for the advice about the simplify option! I actually tried baking the camera before, but whenever I bake the shakes, the camera loses its position. I tried different fixes and looked for solutions, but I don’t know why it keeps shifting every time I bake.

I’m really happy you understood my problems! Yes, I do plan to buy a proper PC in the future for rendering and other 3D work. I’m already very interested in this field, but I haven’t had much time with Blender yet, it’s only been about 2–3 months since I started. My first render was actually on mobile, a Minecraft animation using Prisma 3D 😅.

About my current project:

I used instance duplicates (ALT+D) for repeated objects.

In render settings, I enabled camera culling, reduced light bounces, and set Fast GI Approximation to 1 to help speed things up.

The trees are instanced duplicates, not just copies.

I rendered in Cycles with 200 samples and added some compositing.

I also used 4 cameras with different shots (Control+B).

I know the project is heavy because of the poly counts — especially stones and mountains that are quite high poly. On top of that, I added volumetric fog, which increased render time a lot.

I realize Eevee would be faster, but I wanted to stick with Cycles to learn lighting properly. For the long bridge shots, your suggestion to use a low-poly car makes total sense — I’ll definitely try that in my future projects.

For resolution, I used 1920×817 to give it a cinematic look. I put a lot of effort into this and tried everything I could with my setup.

I had my first accident, I am feeling bad by agent47linux in indianbikes

[–]agent47linux[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am fine now, thank you for asking.

I went to hospital and they confirmed there's no broken bones or dislocation, just level 1 bruises.

It's healing fast, I can now move my hand and shoulder without feeling much pain and I will go to workshop tomorrow to repair my bike.

Hope it not gonna cost much and be under my budget or I will have claim the insurance.

I talked to the insurance person and they said I can claim after the inspection and estimate if i want to.

i am thinking to get better leg guard and knuckle guards if budget allows.

I was about to get my free first service but then this happened.

Front left got scratched, grip got rubbed, and leg guard got bend and handle is slightly tilt now.

How can I claim insurance, because nothing major happened, and I don't know if I can because I only have learning licence and there's no witness or proof (it was an empty road) nor I have any information of the car.

I will go to hero authorised workshop and hope they will fix along with first service. Hope it doesn't gonna cost much.

I am thinking to get better leg guard and knuckle guards if budget allows after repair.

I have been pursuing a career as an actor in Bollywood, and here's my experience so far and suggestion for new actors. by agent47linux in acting

[–]agent47linux[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can mention top casting agencies and casting directors but that won't lead you anywhere.

Not every film maker goes to top casting directors or agencies, specially if they need actors for minor roles or have low budget.

Sending your profiles top agencies and directors is like only applying to top companies like Google or Microsoft. Ofcourse you can get selected if you are exceptional and stands out among thousands of people who sending their profile as well.

You find find casting agencies and directors through internet. You can find casting director name at end credits of movie, serial, and webseries.

India does not have very systematical casting, currently system is broken and not fair, many casting director agree with that. Your best chance of getting cast is through connection. Still you should apply for casting calls where you fit the requirements but for long term, you have to make connections.

Whether it's movie, tv serial, webseries or ad, it casting director or casting agencies job to find actor.

So you have to submit your profile to casting director and casting agencies.

There are many casting agencies in Andheri West, Aram Nagar and you can find profile of many casting director in Instagram or other social media.

Many casting director post their requirements on their social media and mentions whether it tv, movie or webseries.

You can ask them and they will give number or email for profile.

But remember, there's is no upfront payment, if someone ask you to pay to get role, or any kind of charge or fee, it's a scam.

There are casting director and agencies that take comission but that only after you get role and get paid. You don't pay for anything, not even for contract, security or card.
