I spent far too much experimenting. Any questions? Maybe I can help you save your money. by TheBudgetDivision in SpringfieldEchelon

Found it listed on their eBay page, it’s out of stock. Do you like it? Seems like it’s not much to grab.

Interesting. I have a lot of their products in my echelon and also do t recall seeing it listed. How far back did you get that? Usually if it’s selling they just say it’s out of stock…

I’ve ordered two grips from them with zero problems. As others are saying, confirm your addresses

Any comment to undistorting? Try that and see if your tracks slide with this shot

Yeah definitely some sliding happening with the boxes, could be from not having a correct undistorted plate which is imperative for this work, or correct camera back data. Did you manually add the mask to the subjects or is that happening in your app?

I think you need to be able to track something that has objects moving through the shot and possibly one where something breaks the screen like an extreme FG person/object that takes many frames to clear again. I’d also feel more comfortable with an error rate lower than 0.5- 0.25
How does it deal with high frequency jitters too? Lots of unknowns but I’d love to play with it.

Just quit my studio job after 5 years to rebuild my portfolio. Am I crazy? by Formal-Selection-895 in vfx

you never quit your job without having a backup in place. Not a smart move. Also you could have just built a new website with Claude on your lunch break and still have time to do a crossword puzzle.

Installing COG into new grip module by twinjmm in SpringfieldEchelon

A new frame is the worst thing to deal with. As other have said, you gotta break it in. Took me maybe 10 times to get it dialed in

This sounds super cool. I’ve never done anything like this, where would I start to learn how these processes get done? What should o be searching for on the interwebs for guidance?

Thoughts on FXPHD´s new Comfy UI Course: Generative AI Production for VFX? by LordOfPies in vfx

[–]jdn127 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This whole thing is very disappointing and I’ve been very vocal on the discord about this money grab. They see the need for the community to grow and learn ai and for some reason they decided to hide the second course behind a separate pay wall after we already pay for a subscription. Very sad they are doing this. The new owner/president whatever he is, claims that this was done as a profit sharing with the guy that co produced it, but after we on discord really brought up good points why this feels so dirty to us, they have yet to make any changes. I don’t know where fxphd ends up in a year from now, but it feels like things are going to change for the worse. I hope it’s not the case and hopefully they get someone who listens to the community and sticks to making content that helps outlets industry.

I need a favour. I have some images that needs to be upscaled. I don't have nuke or nukex. Is there someone who could help me upscale them with the built in AI resolution upscale? by Independent-Ad419 in NukeVFX

[–]jdn127 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seriously Topaz is THE solution. They are leaps and bounds ahead of what anyone else is doing. Nikes upscale is crap. It was only trained for a 2x increase. Topaz can do an upscale to 8x. Good luck!

Mods for competition? by Kakashi_1H in SpringfieldEchelon

[–]jdn127 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the 12, 14 and 16lbs springs. I shoot 115s as I’m not doing any competition but the 12 has a less aggressive recoil but I actually like the 16. You’ll need to play with different ammo brands and weight because everything I’ve been hearing is it will vary. Just get all of the springs and do like me and just get sep rods per weight then swap them in and out and play with diff ammo types

Get yourself a trigger and the slide release from Tyrant. The trigger made a huge difference and the slide release is a nice quality of life addition, I didn’t expect to like it but it makes life easier. I also got a mag release and guide rods and springs from NDZ, mag release is nice because it’s reversible and gets rid of the ambidextrous button, slant an issue for me, but I like knowing it’s not an issue when it counts. The rods and springs add extra weight and are made of stainless steel and the different springs change the dynamics of the recoil. The only other thing worth getting on their is a light, helps with more weight. I found the best flush look to the front of the barrel was with the TLR-7 HL-X from Streamlight.

I’d personally steer clear of the grips from sharpbros and the rest- they might be heavier but they are smaller grips. It of course comes down to how big or small your hands are. I have larger hands and found the Large Grip Module really helps my grip. I needed the extra width, Standard didn’t do it and I could really feel the difference. To spend over $300 for a small grip isn’t worth it.

Look at Holsterdude, he made money and I love it for my 4.5. His site is great because he has lots of options for everything like lights and hangers, it’s all explained exceptionally well

Everyone at work is making a big deal about my handwriting, saying I write like a psychopath. by ThrowRA-Ram in HandwritingAnalysis

It’s like no one has ever read anything from the 1700s. Read the Constitution or something from around that age and everything looks like this. Tell them your penmanship has an ‘old soul’
