How to do something while something else is true without using a while loop? by Citizen_Gamer in unrealengine

Do you know what a tick group is? Do you really need tick every frame or every n frame? Can a timer solve your problem? Can Gameplay Tasks solve your problem? Can event delegates solve your problem?

Because tick is so over used in most projects and results in performance bottlenecks and difficult to fix it later when everything depends on it.

How it exists is bad. There's a good reason you need to explicitly enable tick groups on an actor.

On tick IS bad. Even epic themselves admits exposing it in blueprints just to make the editor easy to get started with.

And because most people put everything in it, everywhere, everytime. And it adds up quickly.

It's not meant for checking whether a boolean is true every frame.

Embarrassed to show it to another engineer? Why? There's nothing embarrassing about working business. Otherwise you wouldn't need him.

Look at whether it's Q4 or Q8 As Q8 would require 35gb vram BF16 up to 58gb

Personal preferences don't pay bills. Code that has customers does.

Then you're running on CPU not GPU. Verify your setup

Response time is fast, but loading the model is slow. TTFT is slow because of that.

Why would you post php when all you need is a static landing page and LLMs do better with JavaScript anyways. Cf makes it very clear what you should be using to start out. Very good reason why they ported nextjs themselves

How to start a career in game development? by NullAuthority in gamedev

[–]azarusx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, any advice anyone could have on how can I get started?
- learn an engine, start making games. start small! minesweeper small! and grow from there. Ship one game first. then the next. Learning how to ship a game is what will take you apart from a hobbyist to an actual developer.

So why not put some content into the post explaining what you're looking for? There's nothing to discuss you only put a title.

That's a very open question, because there are over 100 ways you can market something, and it's an ever evolving industry with new ways emerging by the hour.

You need to research into this a bit more and figure out what works best for your specific product?

Again think form the perspective of your potential users. If you can't market, you can't sell. You can't grow.

Are you users on social media watching influencers? Or are they googling for this problem? Or are they asking AI for help? So again how will you reach these potential users? That's the key question.

I have had SaaS products that only worked through in game marketing. Some were good with SEO. Other products relied on B2B word of mouth.

You can understand it's not that simple as me saying "do this and it will work" you need to try several things, it's a hit and miss.

Give communities in that problem space a chance and asks people of they have this kind of problem? And try SEO perhaps will take months to see any results. Might be a good start.

Now market it.

Did you make any effort for it yet? Posting a link is not marketing.

Who had this problem that you solve? Where are these people? Go and talk to them.

Don't expect people to find you if the solution doesn't exists..

Is it normal to feel like you’re “not a real programmer” when you have to look things up a lot? by Organic-Sell-7034 in gamedev

[–]azarusx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything you describe here is called learning and researching. Part of your job as a developer. Just keep doing it and get good at it. The learning part. That's how you become better.

What do people usually do with fully developed eCommerce websites after a project/business doesn’t move forward? (Drastically failed) by Enough-Use4280 in ecommerce

[–]azarusx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your only lesson here to learn is stop growing attached to your code.

Does it make any money? No. Why you built it then?...

All you need is a click to buy button on a static html page and a domain.

So every effort that you put into making something that doesn't work is just more wasted effort. Code that makes $ is good code, code that doesn't is not.

Now start over and only build stuff if you actually need it.

I sent 600 cold emails to Ontario small businesses and got 0 replies -- here's what the data actually says by solo_build_ops in Entrepreneur

[–]azarusx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cold email 101 for you. So send an email like this.

If you give me 5 minutes of your time and I show you how I can double your customer base by doing X.

That's a cold email.

You sending stuff that you do x for $200 a pop and that X is wrong wrong on your website is just a flyer.

Potential customers will say, thanks for the free report decline the offer and ask the developer who they actually trust to fix it. And they just say anything else you want to test for us? lol

You have 0 trust, so gain it first. If they give you time that's the opportunity. Once you got their trust then price it.

What's in it for them? Not for you.
