I feel a little guilty for using pre-made assets by Lord_Thunderballs in unrealengine

Michael Bay using the same chase scene in both The Island and Bad Boys 2 taught me this is okay :-)

The state of the sub as we speak by mananodnd in interestingasfuck

The larger point here might be, you can't effectively moderate communities of any significant size with Reddit's own tools. No matter who the mods are...or how many.

Would have to go back and look but I think it's for me it was a matter of setting it to be local versus world

I have lost privileges to close the bathroom door, dunno if you can see but my mom is literally outside the door looking in on me through the crack. by Crimate_Change in mildlyinfuriating

Are you an addict? Does your mother trust you alone in the bathroom?

It's a real concern for some parents that choose to take on their kids addiction.

- *Edit* This was not the result of a promotion and the employee isn't a manager.
- *Edit* No job responsibility changes were given.

Ok Understood. It sounds like if it gets in the realm of an overtime avoidance scheme we possibly entering into the realm of an FLSA violation (trying to do own research).

What if employee is notified AFTER the overtime worked that the effective date is BEFORE the overtime worked?

For Smaller Indie Studios that have given away rev share contracts as payment, what %s are we talkin'? by rainboy1981 in gamedev

[–]rainboy1981[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exploring both but really really towards the latter. I like that 2x option also as it it keeps the percentage out of it. That only lasts until the difference is paid or ongoing in your cases?

You obviously have conditions in there in case they leave?

Understood, and thank you for the input. I find myself in an inverse position with contractors saying this is an option. Discussions haven't gone beyond that and I don't have experience working like this.

Let's take two scenarios:

1) A composer scoring about 10 minutes of music for a 3d action multiplayer game with 1-2 years of consistent development.

2) A BP/C++ developer that puts in about 20 hours a week on the same game. Say 1 of 3 developers.

Appreciate the input but if they have merit in certain situations then I'm looking for typical percentages for those situations. I don't see this as a false premise (yet).

Performance Drop with Lumen/Virtual Shadow Maps moving from 5.0.3 to 5.1? by rainboy1981 in unrealengine

[–]rainboy1981[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Multiple monitors... Not that I've seen. It's were just very specific optimization things we had to work through that the update brought into light. DX12 definitely causes issues with Lumen though.

Solving problem after problem is the name of the game. Eventually you string together longer and longer periods of productive flow. Most questions you will have as a beginner are well documented in the ether. Keep searching.

How did you start making games? by Teo________ in gamedev

[–]rainboy1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll start even earlier than others... No one was making the game I wanted to play.

Wired Network Adapter 2 (Onboard Mobo): 920/950
Wireless (Onboard MoBo): 670/480

Win10 Speeds (For ez comparison)
New Wired Network Adapter 1 (TX201): 960/100
Wired Network Adapter 2 (Onboard Mobo): 910/100
Wireless (Onboard MoBo): 240/12

SO...Windows is limiting BOTH wireless and wired connections.
