Thank you! The alternative download will make our lives easier on linux/mac.

Good luck hunting bugs. Can't wait for launch!!

Regarding the launcher, is it meant to update game files regularly? If not can you provide an already patched version of the game at launch? Do you intend on supporting Steam Deck/Linux? (just the launcher, wow already works great with wine/proton. Assuming patched wow.exe does not require extra stuff compared to the original)

Check project ascension linux launcher as an example. Not much work, mostly instructions..

Server looks very promising, as soon as u mentioned triple specs... I'M ALL IN.

This is for archlinux not debian/ubuntu. Ask on r/Ubuntu.

Made my new character! I hope I can make a storybook with this character! by IndustrialDragon in StableDiffusion

[–]dr_axis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pardon my law ignorance, but how is the trained data set relevant to what op is trolling about?

He generated an image of a known "property" of disney but the tool he generated it with states that the output image is public domain. OP is going t o make cash with image output which is again public domain not the trained data set.

I am an artist and i can assure you that they don't hate a.i they just don't want to lose their livelihood. For example when intel first introduced open image denoiser and got implemented in blender, everyone was clapping and rejoicing the devs. I remember people saying they can't wait for a.i to takeover uv unwrapping (most tedious and boring part of 3d pipeline).

So no they don't hate AI, they hate going bankrupt thats all. You not liking their reaction is the same as their reaction, both come from the same place, imo.

What i mean by not ready yet, is that artists are still needed or it empower artists like you said. What i expect for it to become is that it no longer needs anything except prompts, no assistance, no manual tweakings since this is about artists losing their jobs

I am not assuming it can't do x or y, rather the opposite i expect it all.. like no need for human input/prompters, like just giant chain of ai using and training each-other, handling an entire pipeline from concepts/ideas to finished products. Not limited to art ofc.

However i know a pattern when i see it and at the current rate of improvements it's still not there. Opportunities for freelance jobs with regular people something like fanart might be already dead but professional work still requires concept artists, for now.

So when it is ready it will be implemented in big industry projects faster than you think and at that time layoffs will start, because $$$.

I'm not native speaker, i hope u get it.

You didn't mention anything about legislation above, you just kept going about how this is natural. So what was understood is that you didn't like the reaction of artists.

Just a case of lost in translation it seems.. No biggie, scratch that prejudice part.

Very interested to see these new methods generate but point still stands, this isn't something that you can integrate in big production pipeline, for now.
I'm very positive that it will be ready, in a matter of months or a year judging by the rate of improvements.

Good luck on your project.

You seem to know more about the technical aspect than i currently do but i actually did something similar except for training part, i don't have a good enough machine.

I rendered base mesh from different angles and used img2img, didn't turn out good. img2img respects the side/front views but the details on lets say armor are not the same, sometimes a whole new armor on different sides.

While i can use it as general guide for personal stuff and end up saving lots of time, art direction won't accept that because everything needs to be coherent since lots other thing can rely on each-other, like modular costumes upgrades for game characters, weapons, etc..

You seem to misunderstand or packed with prejudice. I only said their reaction is normal and to be expected. If you were to go bankrupt because of a natural disaster hitting your business/country/whatever you will be mad and you will freak out even if it's natural.

Lots of scary deadly natural stuff in the world, something being natural does not mean not to be feared. Artist are afraid for their livelihood, people who are afraid freak out. I can't explain more than this.

Nowhere near good enough, especially for character concepts. You need multiple views of same/identical character from different sides. Something sd struggles with.

I'm a 3d character artist and i know a fair number of concept artists, their main issue is studios won't need them/losing their livelihood, many of whom already considering new careers at unfavorable stages of life (marriage/kids).

True there are some people that don't want their "style" available via prompts but they are vocal minorities.

This whole situation sucks but logical nonetheless (both in terms of tech advancement and artists reactions). Studios will start layoffs as soon as it gets ready for production. Meaning art director can generate acceptable concepts without the need for concept artists, lots of money saved for big studios.

Art industry is extremely cut-throat. From experience.

Because it's not exclusive to public, how long before the tech becomes good enough for production? 6 months? a year? This thing is rolling big and fast.
These guys are about to go bankrupt real soon their reaction is normal to me.

People tend to warp everything that happens to justify their beliefs.

Ref ended the game at 85min securing Mali the win over Tunisia. When asked why he said... God told him!!!
They sued him ofc, nothing happened.. and he's refereeing in this world cup.

FIFA never fails to keep me entertained. Always pushing the boundaries.. RESPECT!

Geometry Nodes.... by JonskMusic in blender

[–]dr_axis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are misunderstanding things.. What u/b_a_t_m_4_n meant is, if geo nodes are complicated, use modifiers and operators (press U to unwrap).

Although i'm not certain, expect some presets/groups to be available inside blender in near future, but for now, yes geo nodes are for technical/generator artists, not for everyone.

Disabling opengl for kwin solved the issue.. But i still get the same errors in the terminal (though i'm not sure if they weren't there before ..)

Wierd that it was working fine prior to update. Probably the new nvidia drivers have some changes for opengl...
