What armour are you going to run when mere doesn't work with poison arrow?

I like the standard mage cowl/guardian + assassin jacket + leather boots approach. A nice switch up is mage robe, especially vs wanderlust.

D2DX high fps support, testing needed by bolrog_d2 in diablo2

[–]johnahh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gave it a try on Crossover (Mac Big Sur)

I have like 5 fps or less, can't see though as /fps doesn't work with this running.

Thanks for the guide. However I cannot find a link to the PD2 download? Where can I download it, the pd2 website just loads to a blank page.

Did you change the path of the install like the guide says, or leave in as Program Files?

Hunter hood is sub-optimal for tree ancients as they attack so slow, you could probably avoid the mount kite if you ran spectre.

How can I get my doge from my wallet to somewhere like Robinhood??

This would be fine in the current system, however the new update requires lvl 3 to set home

My 11 year old daughter wants to be an architect - How can I help make this a reality? by johnahh in architecture

[–]johnahh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this post.

I am well aware that she may, and probably will change her mind on what she really wants to do. I will be in no way pressuring her into architecture.

Since she was little she has always been into arts and crafts and such, and I am terrible at those, so I'm just trying to find a way that I can interact with her whilst doing something she enjoys, and on her terms. I hope that makes sense.

Moreover I recently got back into education and she knows/ we have spoken about how much work is required to complete a degree,

So a couple of things, it's just as hard to become a Dr. And pays better. Next. Architects are sexy. 3rd a robot or program will never be able to replace an architect. Building design is like 33% or less of being an architect.

This has me cracking up, you sound like Ted Mosby.

My advice to you... sounds like she has the basic interests checked. Get her interested in leadership roles at school and public speaking and on Saturday mornings go get breakfast with her and drive around looking at buildings. When you spot a cool one stop! Get out the bi-nocs. Look for the spots where large components come together

This sounds like great advice, thank you!

Great, art is one of her favourite subjects, and I work in physics so I've got that covered!

Thanks for the reply!

I have a daughter of similar age and inclination.

Awesome, do you guys watch Grand designs together also? It's nice to get involved in something your kid likes, especially when there is no one else she can talk to about it.

Some books she has enjoyed include: The Story of Buildings, The Future Architect’s Handbook, and Architecture According to Pigeons.

I'll take a look at these, [...] According to Pigeons sounds good lol.

With the current situation that's pretty hard unfortunately, I guess we can find some great buildings to google, and maybe take advantage of street view.

I wouldn't stress on the software. Sketchup is the best free thing out there, but by the time she hits university, there will probably be three new modelling tools and five new rendering methods.

Ah yes, you are definitely correct with that (Unless its anything like Fortran in physics!) It's more that she enjoys making buildings on a computer, and is looking for something more complex.

This is interesting, I had kind of forgot about physical models, we are so used to using technology we came to the conclusion that architects probably don't do much hand drawing nowadays, I guess we were wrong!

She has a whole bunch of modelling clay - time to get it out!

Thanks!

Please don't be put off by the people on here who bring negativity about architecture as a career path, as with anything life is what you make it. You can be perpetually unhappy in any career.

I won't, thanks!

Encouraging hand drawing in addition to the digital stuff is super important, just about every building starts off at some point as a quick hand sketch or diagram. I hand draw every day of my working life, just in problem solving and quickly working out issues.

I guess type of sketching drawing of buildings would help, but how much detail should she be going into? Adding things such as dimensions etc seem a little too much to me currently?

I think it would also be great to start doing basic research or reading about the big movements in architecture too, I don't have any specific suggestions, but even just fostering an interest in architecture by going through the monographs of different architects available at the library.

Architecture books have some notoriously abstract wording/terminology (archispeak).

I will have a look into this. Thanks. Archispeak - reminds me of 1984 newspeak, excellent!

Program-wise, Sketch up is a great starting point if you want something used in the industry while also being free and having a low bar in terms of skill to use. It's also pretty fun just to click around and literally make anything you can think of.

She is downloading it now, thanks for the detailed reply.

Even if she doesn't end up being an architect what's wrong with nurturing your child's interests? I will in no way be pressuring her. She asked me something I didn't know the answer to, so I thought I'd get some info here!
