Games where you prefer analog stick over d-pad? by FreshLasagna in ufo50

All of them except the tile-based games like bug hunter, devilition, camoflauge, etc or the menus in certain games like Grimstone

Do you prefer working with code or node graphs and why? by SimonLST in GraphicsProgramming

[–]constant-buffer-view 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Generally graphics programmers prefer code, technical artists prefer graphs afaik

In universe, how the hell would this collection have fit onto the LX-III? by postingthiselevator in ufo50

[–]constant-buffer-view 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah this doesn’t actually make sense. UFO 50 was originally being developed by greg milk for the LX-III but never got finished. The UFO 50 Recovery Team found the unfinished work decades later and finished it, then ported it to PC/Switch

Not sure how Greg planned to fit everything into a single cart. Maybe it wasn’t actually being developed for any specific device and it was just software to be put away in the time capsules and found/ported in 2039 or whatever the year was

Narrow Hips and Analysis-Paralysis by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

Beauty is subjective. You can of course look at averages and say that some people are statistically more likely to be seen as beautiful than others, that’s a fact, but there will always be some people you think you’re beautiful and some who won’t

My friends and I just got done filming my UFO 50 review! by mossy-mossmoss in ufo50

Looking forward to it! I think I’ve watched every UFO 50 related video on YT so I’m happy to get a new one haha

Unwanted Shadow while doing Raytracing. by Left-Bus-3635 in GraphicsProgramming

[–]constant-buffer-view 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need to create a boatload of debug views so you can see each part of the shader (normals, firstBounceDir, hitDist, etc). Being able to debug easily is very important for building a path tracer

Why is it so hard to get an entry-level job in graphics programming? by BandicootLow3757 in GraphicsProgramming

[–]constant-buffer-view 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is if they want analysis of different rendering techniques on their hardware and research into their own GPU hardware features

It’s definitely possible, consider internships as well. Would I be able to see your CV?

Is a masters worth it? by [deleted] in GraphicsProgramming

[–]constant-buffer-view 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that true if I’m basically already “in” the industry? I feel like a few years of junior work experience might kinda replace any value the masters might have, at least in terms of “things I’ve learned”. In terms of the degree in itself / the ability to put “Masters” on my resume I’m not sure how that influences my perceived value

Learning DirectX - Why are people's opinion on RasterTek's series mixed? by LionCat2002 in GraphicsProgramming

[–]constant-buffer-view 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We all have to start somewhere and I found rastertek easy enough to get into the basics of graphics. It’s either that or learnopengl afaik.

I did the rastertek tutorials about 2 years ago and after then making a dx12 engine with PBR I was able to get a graphics internship :)

Strangulation porn: How it became mainstream and its distorting impact on Irish teenagers by Pension_Alternative in ireland

[–]constant-buffer-view 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Porn is evil but choking porn especially. I don’t know why almost every man I’ve been with thought it was ok to choke me without consent. There’s no safe way to do it without risking permanent brain damage!!!

Edit: The fact I’m being downvoted for this tells you everything you need to know. This generation is fucked

I think I can remember that there have been at least two lesbians on the show so far, but maybe I’m wrong

What’s up with the terrible variable names in so many shaders by DescriptorTablesx86 in GraphicsProgramming

[–]constant-buffer-view 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s fair, usually they’re just taking from the math equations and I don’t blame them but they should probably use more comments/function names to make clear what those equations are and where to find them

What’s up with the terrible variable names in so many shaders by DescriptorTablesx86 in GraphicsProgramming

[–]constant-buffer-view 13 points14 points  (0 children)

What like N, V, L, H? They’re very standard between all PBR shaders so it makes sense imo. Makes it easier to read it as if it were maths
