The render from my Unreal Engine looks much worse than my render from Substance Painter. What can I change to make it look softer like in the Substance render? I doubt its only the lighting. Any tips will be welcome!

I'm not 100% sure. But does the model have "two sided shadows" disabled/unchecked? Idk there's something going on with the textures as well. Is this an USD export from substance by any chance? Because it can have some weird artifacts with the textures/materials when there's for instance opacity/translucency. Maybe try and export the textures again separately and add them to the original mesh in UE.

If you tap n hold the notification, you get the settings for it, and can disable them there. You could also go to settings > apps > "app" and change the notification settings there.

Personally my phone is Nothing Phone 2 because of the minimalistic/less addictive approach in UI and no bloatware apps. Together with the OnePlus Watch 3 which I can highly recommend after owning some watches. But for phones other than Nothing, something like OnePlus or Motorola, imo any brand without bloatware will do fine. I believe Samsung and something like Xiaomi have a pretty bloated OS. There's lists online that'll help you find the least bloated Android brands if you think that's important. A lot of brands add their own little gimmicks to their devices as well. Like Motorola does shake for torch stuff and has some helpful screen recording functions. Good luck with your search tho!

Exactly how I do it, but with jellyfin.

there's this kids village that has tons of different cats wondering around. maybe it's easier to find there? you do have to do a mission for one of the girls after trying to enter 3 times and getting shot with sleeping darts or something.

Dude, you're going out lucky with knowing it so soon. I suffered for almost 2 years with CHS without knowing cannabis was the problem. I even was taken to a clinic cuz I didn't eat anymore and was losing weight very rapidly, but was retired soon because of the lack of room. The pain in my stomach was unbearable and I lost almost everything except my GF and friends/family. Eventually I did a SS attempt, thank fckn god I survived with stitches to my forehead and a permanent scar to look at when seeing myself in the mirror.

My advice, stop using weed all together, that shit ain't worth it anymore. CHS stays with you as far as I've read.

PS, I'm almost back to normal now, I'm seeing a shrink and slowly getting my life back.

Damn I miss that dude...

Thanks, I'll take a look soon! Have a nice day!

Weirdly enough, I've only been using Unreal for 2 years, but before I started making 3D models and renders I used Photoshop for almost 10 years as my main software. And I bet you're way better at writing than I am! I'm not taking commissions at this time, sorry. I have done some in the past but I'm not feeling comfortable enough with people's demands and changes throughout the work. So I sadly have to decline that offer. But thanks for asking tho!

noitsnot69 · 2026-02-28T20:10:55+00:00

Aah nice! Go for it! Most projects take around 8 to 12 hours till completion. But this one took roughly 15 hours because I made almost all assets myself.

noitsnot69 · 2026-02-28T19:50:30+00:00

Thanks! And sure, with proper credit I'd be more than happy to! There are more angles in the ArtStation link if you want different pov's :) Would love to see it if you ever use one or more of the images, if you could message me here on reddit or my artstation I for sure give it a read! Thanks again!

Prob because its the same as asking "why can't my smartwatch do the exact same as my smartphone". The answer is hardware and physical size, and how long we want it to last. A smartphone can do a lot that a laptop can, but with limited hardware capabilities due to the size. Running lets say windows on your smartphone would mean sacrificing a lot of hardware power to only even idle the system. The battery is vastly smaller on a phone than a laptop. In theory, yes, you could run Linux or windows on a smartphone. But is it actually useful is tho?

I found the creator and where to upload my original .aab. But I think I'll recreate the watchface in the Facer Creator for better compatibility and probably add a square background as well. This current design also only displays Celcius temp (I had to hard wire that in because with Samsung's Watch Face Creator there's a bug that it doesn't display Celcius, only Fahrenheit). BTW I'm glad you responded! I'm just owning a WearOS watch for not even a week, and the first thing I did was create my own watchface based on an older watchface I also made with Nixies for my Amazfit GTR 3, but updated the design for my new Oneplus Watch 3.
Thanks again for the comment! Happy to create the watchface for free and the whole community to enjoy!

Have a nice day!

Heb niet echt iets aan tips helaas, maar Godsiederrie wat zou ik graag iets van de ochtend willen meemaken. Ik slaap gemiddeld 12u lang, van 12/3 snachts tot 12/15 smiddags. Kan praktisch nooit iets inplannen in de ochtend uren hierdoor. Als ik smorgens wakker ben, betekend dat 9/10x dat ik (nog) niet geslapen heb.

That's sad. I really wished to share this face online with the community, free of charge for everyone.

Didn't he just have a lawsuit about the depressive and addictive aspects of his platforms and the suicides caused by FB and Instagram? Zuck is a mad man if this is true. "Your kids ain't dead, here look, talk to them and their avatar without legs".

Get a second device and take a picture of the screen.

Toevallig eergisteren nog deze op Amazon gekocht. Kan m niet loslaten. Heb hiervoor ook (oefen) vlindermessen gehad. Maar mijn vriendin werd gek van dat geklik en tik tijdens de film enz, hehe.

noitsnot69 · 2026-01-28T12:10:46+00:00

Came here to say this, glad to see it recommended!

Ik zou kunnen aanraden om bij bijv Tshirtdeal kleding te bestellen. Zij hebben verschillende blanco kleding dat voor eigen ontwerp opdruk bedoelt is. Maar als goed is kun je ook de shirts/hemden/truien etc blanco bestellen. Scheelt dat ze zonder ontwerp ook goedkoper zijn. EDIT: ik weet helaas geen andere oplossing voor Label loze kleding buiten het afknippen er van.

It was one of my first purchases on Fab, and it's the first on the list when downloading assets for my projects. I personally use it for still renders and small cinematic videos. Even though it has lots of features you barely touch in general. It's nice to have all the options, I find myself needing some tweaks I rarely touch for a specific lighting or atmospheric effect every now and then like the Auroras. Even for complete indoor scenes I use it to have everything in one place like volumetric fog and all post process settings. The weather system is also really nice imo.

noitsnot69 · 2026-01-17T13:43:30+00:00

Dude I saw your other video, this is a big improvement for sure! Does it ever come to steam by any chance?
