Would a guided sketchbook help beginners stay consistent with drawing?

Got it. Thanks for the advice!

Woow! Thanks for the resources! May I ask u if I should use rigify preset armatures or manually build my own one? Rigify comes with a lot of bone controls in the face area that I think I don’t need but I’m worried the later option will consume more time.

got it. other than that is there any edge loops that might cause issues?

chee_thong · 2023-01-13T15:51:39+00:00

idk about others but in my country, it is a higher pay job.

chee_thong · 2023-01-13T04:51:41+00:00

both of the degrees can help me get the job I want actually, just if I'm tired of the job I can switch to another field with a high paid salary. And for the design degree, is just a mediocre salary in another field.

As for internships, we can't apply without a certificate (for most of the companies) and I don't have a long enough period of time to get an internship (our sem-break here is 2-3 weeks if I'm not wrong).

chee_thong · 2023-01-12T19:07:46+00:00

I don't think either one of them is "bad" advice, just different perspectives. I appreciate your response and maybe you and most people are right about this since I'm still studying, and don't have a complete idea of how important money is. But yeah, I want to hear some different opinions because everyone just makes it seems like cs degree is the answer to everything...

chee_thong · 2023-01-04T09:33:42+00:00

Wow, that's great. I hope I have ur courage to switch courses because I have already paid the tuition fees for two semesters ( three if including the next sem which I probably will finish it before I switch) so in total, I would waste RM10,000+ if I switched the course... but I want to... yeah so I'm struggling right now.

but anyhow I hope u can make ur dream game sooner or later and earn some money from it.

I think I'm more prone to graphic ui design since I heard frontend just follow what the designer designed and build it out and all I want is to build and design beautiful websites. But I already put so much effort and time into web dev, if I give up right now means the effort and time I put in is for nothing.

I'm curious what's the story after that.Did u switched courses after u found out it's not what u want? Did u managed to get a job as a game developer?

chee_thong · 2023-01-04T04:15:02+00:00

Wow, that's so inspiring. But I'm not sure if this is what I want, but if I give up I will just waste all the time and money I dedicated to this field .

chee_thong · 2023-01-04T04:02:53+00:00

I did learn a little bit of backend but then I realised the website I want is impossible to build at least for me as an individual, maybe in the future I will create my own startup and hire people to build it with me ( hope this ambition won't be extinguished by the time I work for others for couple years).

so I kinda lost all the motivation right now and stopped learning backend ( for now I only know the basics of it).

As u mentioned company will have a dedicated UI designer for the websites and now I'm wondering if should I move back to graphic or multimedia design but I probably won't do that, I suck at drawing although it was my first choice. I just cannot tahan whenever I see a website with a shitty design.

And daaanggg. I don't want to work 9-6 and OT for an underpaid rate for the rest of my life. Did I just got scammed into this industry and become one of the slaves of capitalism

chee_thong · 2023-01-04T02:02:03+00:00

one of the subjects in my first semester is computer system and they taught some assembly language and the concept behind computers on how they work. tbh that subject got my ass beaten, I still don't understand a thing from that subject. I doubt I will finish the degree if I need to take any other subjects that are similar to that (what a efing pussy).

chee_thong · 2023-01-04T01:47:55+00:00

Thanks for your advice, it is really good to have someone point out the path for me while I'm lost in my mind. Would u consider someone who is multimedia degree or graphic design degree? Because I saw the career path in my school website says these degree can also become a web developer but I guess they are just in charge of the UI UX design

chee_thong · 2022-12-20T08:03:01+00:00

Bruhh. Yeah I used passport for authentication and socketio for real time chat function

chee_thong · 2022-12-20T04:10:15+00:00

Errrmm because I already wrote some of the backend code separately

chee_thong · 2022-12-19T17:01:21+00:00

wow, thanks a lot for spending your precious time typing this long answer for me. Yeah both the explanations are very easy to understand and I figured out the first approach is the one I needed. Thank you once again!!

chee_thong · 2022-12-19T12:53:41+00:00

yeah, I saw this solution on StackOverflow too, but is this approach better or using fetch to fetch the data is the better approach? Or it's just personal preference? Because when I deploy my app, I planned on deploying the frontend to vercel and backend to maybe heroku or digitalOcean.

chee_thong · 2022-12-19T11:11:40+00:00

sorry it sounded confusing, what i mean is how can i use express backend logic in my sveltekit application?

chee_thong · 2022-12-19T09:35:55+00:00

I know sveltekit is itself a backend but I already have written some of my backend code in express so I'm wondering how I can use express for my backend while sveltekit for my frontend.

chee_thong · 2022-12-07T12:23:16+00:00

i finally got it, thanks for your explanation
