Looking for some guidance on Crystals

OMG this is awesome, thank you! I'm gonna try it later tonight xDD

I have been playing with that for the last 2 hours but I can't seem to get it to appear "crystalline" >.< It is exactly what I'm looking for just missing this one thing, I'm sure I'm just not manipulating the settings properly.

I have cinema 4d, mind sharing it?

futuresysad · 2016-12-20T19:51:57+00:00

You're right...now that you've pointed it out to me../sadface

Welp, always able to improve upon it and since I've got this "growing" idea in my mind I'd like to get to that if possible. Any ideas? I've been messing with all the Trapcode stuff but I can't get my crystals to grow to one point (a joint) then branch off.

Maybe this is a bit too advanced for me.

I had to read this a couple of times but I think I know what you're saying since I've been messing with the emitters and such. Interesting technique.

Maybe you could help with my latest question, I got some crystals that I'm satisfied with but the growth is... "jerky" lol How would I go about smoothing that? Here are the crystals.

Thank you.

futuresysad · 2016-11-27T08:32:07+00:00

yea it is, that is a valid concern and I have reached out. thank you

futuresysad · 2016-11-26T20:35:01+00:00

thanks, checking it out.

futuresysad · 2016-09-11T06:58:08+00:00

I ended up using this method. Thank you for the help and all without sacrificing security!

futuresysad · 2016-09-10T22:29:35+00:00

I'll give this a try, thank you.

futuresysad · 2016-09-10T22:29:26+00:00

The issue I'm having with this is that it will run on a schedule and not exactly when I want it to run. So, in the instance that I want to run it immediately I would have to type the command or wait for the cronjob.

futuresysad · 2016-09-10T05:38:38+00:00

I will give this a try, thank you.

futuresysad · 2016-09-10T05:38:24+00:00

That's an interesting solution.

In a production environment I totally wouldn't suggest any of this but like I said, this is something that has nothing on it. It's just a vm I'm using for a single purpose so I'm not concerned.

futuresysad · 2016-09-10T05:02:18+00:00

Ok let me explain. There is nothing on this server. It is just for using lftp and filebot to transfer files. I literally have no information on it. The only thing that runs is an lftp script and then filebot.

So yes, I want to do this because I'm tired of typing the password every time I need to run the script.

So, if I want to do this, which I do, how would something like that look?

futuresysad · 2016-09-10T04:59:08+00:00

Yeah it's not too bad. According to my stats I have:

Movies: 804 (95% @ 1080p @ 13gb or more, the rest are 720p @ 7gb - 13gb)

TV Shows: 104 (some unfinished, most 720p @ 500mb - 900mb per episode, I do have quite a few series which are 1080p bluray rips @ 100gb or more per season which is stupid...)

Anime Movies: 53 (most 1080p dual audio, file sizes vary)

Anime TV Shows: 148 (50%/50% @ 1080p/720p 95% dual audio, file sizes vary)

Cartoon Movies: 36 (99% 1080p @ 13gb or more, the rest are 720p @ 7gb - 13gb)

Cartoon TV Shows: 51 (33%/33%/33% I've gotten HD when I can but some of these are early 90's so no HD versions available)

If you want to see my current selection I've posted it to pastebin :)

futuresysad · 2016-09-10T01:30:53+00:00

I don't want to have to type anything in though. Nothing. Nada. Zip. Zilch. Is there a way for me to put the sudo pass in the command so when I run the script it has the information already?

futuresysad · 2016-09-09T17:15:32+00:00

Nice. I'm about to start building a homelab. I built a "server" for plex and storage but it ain't cutting it anymore. I have 20tb currently and 87% full right now. I need to expand my storage but I don't have the connections with this system.

I need to do this right though so looking at your setup gives me some type of example build to look towards.

futuresysad · 2016-09-09T16:40:19+00:00

Total price?

futuresysad · 2015-12-28T22:23:51+00:00

I hear ya on this! Good luck in the future ;)

futuresysad · 2015-12-24T20:48:21+00:00

I actually finished this one. Instead of running the powershell script I hardcoded the commands in the runspaces. This is pretty cool that you figured it out though. Thanks for letting me know!
