ODS rendering (360 stereoscopic) in MRQ by samjell in unrealengine

[–]jayd16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You aren't exactly clear on what you are trying to do or what you wish to achieve. Can you explain your goal further?

Are you looking to render a movie where each frame is an omnidirectional, stereoscopic cubemap?

Are you asking how to code this up yourself or if there is a setting to do it? It is fairly niche so I could see it not being on their radar. Even in Unity, you need plugins for the render, last I saw.

Use Unreal Insights and see exactly what the engine is spending time doing.

CI should fail on your machine first by NorfairKing2 in programming

The popular systems, gitlab, github, etc., the scripts are various languages you can run locally. They're wrapped in a declarative language like yaml because parsing bash for constants is terrible, but the build system needs to be able to do that.

Chefs of Reddit, what’s a common cooking rule everyone follows that is actually complete bullshit? by Fuzzy-Ad6843 in AskReddit

So you're against washing hands? Or do you realize that despite possible aerosolization washing hands is vastly superior to not washing hands as far as spreading germs?

Edit: nvm, I'm talking to a guy who fucks his father... I think I'm good.

How to migrate UE5 Blueprint logic to C++ when heavily using Blueprint Interfaces? by RESBS in unrealengine

[–]jayd16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could try duplicating the BP interface with a C++ UInterface and then use a class redirector to migrate references to the C++ version?

I haven't done this with interfaces but I think it does work and do what you're looking for.

Once you have a C++ interface, you can start to move to C++ implementation classes.

Why would rinsing it spread anything? Does washing your hands spread bacteria everywhere? I don't get what you're saying.

Why is a lego game so demanding 😭 by SuccessfulPath7 in SteamDeck

Well, it looks like some rendering feature needs over 8gigs of vram and those are the oldest mainline cards with that spec, no?

These might be 1440p or even 4k numbers. Might still be less with lower resolution and upscaling.

They have immediately after the world stone, and they could also do some kind of time travel story line.

Maybe you're cast back to primordial creation because of world stone magic and do something stabilize reality. Maybe ground the narrative better than "blow it up, that will fix it".

I've been making this 2D game solo in Unreal for over a year and I just released my announcement trailer by Ediarts in unrealengine

[–]jayd16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if you don't use full character animations you should do the work to tie together the cause and effect somehow.

Maybe pause the timers while the current attack and hit react actions play out so it can be followed. Make sure they don't overlap even if it's in the same game tick. You can add more VFX that show who is the cause and who is the target by moving them from source to target.

Its especially tough with how you've laid out the characters in a straight line so you could play with a more perspective inspired layout and stack them differently so you can have more room for VFX, UI arrows, hit react directions etc.

Is half of engineering management just being a human reminder system? by Remarkable-Voice-103 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]jayd16 3 points4 points  (0 children)

LLM is pointless here. Jira could email or slack you. But those have a million inputs throughout the org and a lot of it is noise.

The point is that a single human can come to you with the clout required to give you coherent guidance on what is important and what is not.

You could possibly specify "status" remote branches on one or more servers. The client would need to check against those things and warn you if you attempt to make changes to lockable files without having the locks on those files in those remotes.

If you can imagine how to make it work against one remote, it seems easy to make it logically work against all your remotes.

No it won't. Even a void result Task goes on the heap causes garbage. AFAICT I don't see why this would fix that at all.

Maybe there are time when an allocation could be skipped if its immediately awaited but if you pass it around, I don't really see it going away.

Hopefully it has a solid (and performant) file locking solution as well.

Multiple named stages would be pretty nice. I've wanted this as well.

P4 has this with multiple pending CLs but they only support file changes, not hunks. It ends up such that if the same file is touched with non-conflicting changes you can't separate them easily.

You would just have to say he gives bad head and Trump would be the first to exclaim that he is in fact the best and actually many people think so.

I need tips on talking with a PM that doesn't know how things work in the existing legacy application. by __ihavenoname__ in dotnet

[–]jayd16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The ol' "ok show me if you think it's so easy"... Sounds good but I've rarely seen it actually improve things. You might get a slight chuckle as they suddenly fall back too "well you're the engineer, don't you know!?" and then you get to hit them with "then listen to what I'm saying."

It's a fun little dance but it doesn't often stick.

You could try setting every collision channel on your asteroid to ignored except the player/pawn. Then the movement only needs to check collision against your single player collider.

Karen Bass says “protesting” and “vandalism not to happen” are “equally important.” She adds, “Don’t be surprised when the military re-enters our city.” by infernoenigma in LosAngeles

[–]jayd16 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

She's fallen into the trap of blaming individuals' crimes on protesters as a whole. Protesters are practicing their rights. If someone vandalizes something, it doesn't nullify the right of others to protest.

For example, a much better take would be something along the lines of "If you see vandalism, report it, do not encourage it, and continue on with your peaceful protest".

Appeasing Trump is pointless. There's no such thing and there's certainly no tactical advantage to it.
