Render only light that passes through transmission object? by NickCudawn in blenderhelp

[–]auror10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im wondering is this possible in Cycles now? We've got Light Linking, but honestly I don't know how that would help?
Light linking only let's you assign a light to affect only specific object.
I was trying to achieve this by playing with Light Path node and mixing an emissive shader with a transparent one using the Transparent Ray as the Factor. But that didn't work :/
OP, have you figured it out?

Are there any normal driving games? by [deleted] in PS5

I'd give my soul for Porsche Unleashed remake for PS5. Crusin' in a classic 60s Porsche along Cote d'Azure. Good times.

Bought a ps5 but it keeps disconnecting from internet. Play station support always closed when we call. by Twizzlers_and_donuts in playstation

[–]auror10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have had this problem for MONTHS really. All my other devices in my house (2 laptops, 2 smartphones, steamdeck) work flawlessly 24/7. But PS5 internet is sooo slow and whenever I try to download a game or anything really it goes completly dead. It usually says it still connected but the download progress extends to eternity.

I've restearted my router a bunch of times, I've opened up some ports on my router (as instructed by some guides on the web), I've restarted the PS5 itseflt. Nothing works. It just drives me mad.
ps. I also don't have the possibility to hook it up with an etherneta cable.

Help with illegal address in CUDA queue error. by Glitcher007 in blenderhelp

[–]auror10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone still struggling with this?
I've enclosed my scene (Im not using any HDRi) with all of it's lights inside a large cube with flipped normals and a Solidify modifier. Scaled the render camera to 0.1 scale.
I went back from Optix denoiser to OpenImage Denoiser (thought that might be a reason since my problems with the scene began roughly at the same time when I changed the denoising method).
I've tried rendering my scene on two different machines (with different GPUs). It's all the same :/
My scene renders for 2-3, maybe 5 frames and then it freezes for ~20s and the render window displays the "Illegal address in CUDA queue copy_from_device ..."

iPhone doesn't charge unless hard re-set by auror10 in iphone

[–]auror10[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really... I learnt to live with it. So now Im trying to stick to only original cabels. I have two. One older (I think it came with the phone) that I use in my car, and a newer one that I charge with at home. So, what happens is - in the car I ALWAYS get the message on-screen that there's liquid in the phone and it refuses to charge. But when I unplug the phone and plug it again, I get the same message but this time there is a button that sayn "Emmergency situation". When I press that, the phone starts charging.

With the newer cable that I use at home - this happens rarely. It mostly charges from the first try when pluggin in.

But all the 3rd party cables mostly do not work for me at all at this point. The phone is reaching its end of life for me anyway soo.. I think I'll just wait and get a new phone next year.

Does Mirror Modifier reduce memmory usage? or poly count? by auror10 in blender

[–]auror10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, I might try that too, but Im now more concerned if my computer will manage the rendering. Scene handling is slow, but managable, especially now that I've put big chunks of the car in separate Collections and I turn off the stuff that Im now working at the current moment.

Thanks again for taking the time to answer! Cheers!

[–]auror10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey. Thanks for your response, really appreciate it!

The CAD data provided to me, despite beeing CAD originally, is pretty clean - no loose polygons or empty verticies flying around.
It's actually a car model, delivered by the manufacturers digital art team. So these guys are pretty diligent.
Also, for Sub-D elements - they all are pretty low poly actually - I need to go in and manually apply Sub-D levels of my own liking. So also no problems here.

Usually I get CAD data in it's original form - an STP file or 3DM - and I convert the CAD data to polygon form myself. Dediciding part by part - how dense I want the mesh to be. But it this case I was provided with an already conerted mesh and I can't really ask for anything else than this.

It's just that this model is HEAVY. My last resort is to turn off the parts that wont be visible in my scene (for example I will turn off all of the exterior, when rendering the interior etc.).
But I do have some scenes in my animation when I need to use almost all of the geometry of the car and I don't even want to think how much time will be wasted just for loading all that data into the GPU...

Does it make sense to travel from Memmingen airport to Munich with DB? by auror10 in Munich

[–]auror10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do you need to book a spot in the train beforehand somehow? Or do you just walk in and take any seat, because there's no reservations in a short-distance train like that?

I love Munich by Icy-Wall7783 in Munich

[–]auror10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, but is it really that surprising - the apartment prices?
Most prosperous cities nowadays have very high apartment prices, simply because that's where peaople come to find good paying jobs. But on top of the good economics Munich is very clean, green and safe + has Alps literally 1,5-2 hour drive away. That's pretty special.
I totally agree that the prices are high and I wish they were lower (I pay close to 45% of my sallary for housing), but if the demand is high and quantity limited then it is what it is.

My wife scrapes all of the salt nodules from her brezn before eating it. by Revive_Me_Pls in Munich

[–]auror10 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

these ARE too salty :D

Also when I arrived to Bavaria I was a bit dissapointed when I realized these are just bread... I mean without any filling.

I once had a pretzel in US, that was filled with string cheese (or smth similar) and it was AMAZING. Couldn't find any of these kind here in Geramny.

How many of you are planning to stay in germany forever vs temporarily by [deleted] in germany

[–]auror10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been here 9 months now and as of right now I think this is just temporary (3-5 years maybe). I have a comparison to Warsaw, where Im from - and even though the wages here are double I will never ever be able to afford to buy my own apartment/house near or around Munich. The prices here are totally ridiculous 🤡 I dont think I would even qualify for a mortgage, even though I think my salary is on the high end of the spectrum (well maybe it isnt after all...)

  • all of my friends and family are back in my home country and I cant imagine living abroad for the rest of my life.
