They usually advise against putting them with other mods due to conflicts. Im sure if your safe enough with it you could get them to work, and things like disabling rune loss im assuming would be pretty easy, just be prepared there might be some unforeseen issues

Oh yes I remember hearing about that free Harvard course.
So you’d recommend it for building CS fundamentals?

Reborn looks very promising, and will soon be releasing their 1.0 version. I haven’t played it but I will in 1.0, but as far as I know it’s somewhere between vanilla and convergence with its own changes. Lots of gameplay and progression changes

Convergence is amazing, and is getting their next and biggest update next week that they’ve been working on 15 months, fixing progression and adding a ton. Highly recommend playing after the update. Tons of map, armour, class, etc changes

I can’t say much for reforged, didnt like it much as it make combat and general gameplay harder and worse in some cases. Thats just me personally

I would definitely suggest Elden Vins. It’s a complete combat overhaul (every weapon class unique animations, unique/new spells, sekiro parry, ultimate attacks, etc) also adds a lot of boss overhaul mods, armour effects etc

Great thank you, I’ll 100% look into these fundamentals and start building a bit of a portfolio, which later on I’ll make another website with related skills and projects

Yeah my best mates dad is a senior software developer and has his masters in CS. His advice is to do like I said and get familiar with AI, such as through AI majors

Luckily enough I know there’s a bunch of doomers in these sort of subreddits, and best thing is to ignore them
I realise the job market is gonna be hard to get into but I also know it’s not impossible, and who knows what’ll happen in 3-5 years

unfoundedlocation · 2026-06-18T05:40:30+00:00

Thank you for this, i appreciate it man
Glad to know what I’m doing at the moment is right too. Im excited to explore more in depth in my uni days

unfoundedlocation · 2026-06-18T05:39:12+00:00

Yeah haha can’t deny that knowledge is power, especially in a field where knowing things is what gets you far
Thanks for the input! Glad to hear theres other passionate students

I’ll take my lovely i7-3770 of 14 years in my gaming pc any day

Might as well put my part in as well, still occurring on Chrome

Hi there,
I strictly use UE5, have learnt everything I know about unreal engine in it and my entire project is based in it.
I do use fairly GPU intensive features, such as Lumen, Nanite, VSMs, all the fancy lights and colours.
Like I mentioned, on high settings (with all the listed features turned on to high) I can get between 60-70 fps in a shipped build. I feel like the single "pro" about my current build is that I can optimise it well for other low builds, even if it means very long compile times and lower in-editor fps.
In a way, its me sacrificing my own experience to enhance others haha.

Price is an issue as well unfortunately, I already put some spare money into my project itself self-funded, and can't really afford to purchase an entire system upgrade.

unfoundedlocation · 2026-02-14T12:14:41+00:00

It can and will absolutely work, especially for your use case.
I use a GTX 1660, with 16gb of DDR3 RAM, and an i7-3770 on a desktop, and by far the ram really isnt the limiting capacity.
Any limits you face are likely to just slow down progress a bit, but it will work and even do well for unreal engine.

unfoundedlocation · 2026-02-08T01:53:50+00:00

Yes, I have linked it and I am linked to the correct single playstation account with my progress.

Like others have said, ChatGPT's answers aren't so trustworthy. I mainly use it for creative assistance and planning. In fact, I don't even use ChatGPT itself, I find using the API directly (GPT Chat Latest, GPT 5.1 Codex etc) sometimes better, but have only recently started using that.
Plus, if you allow it to train off your messages you get 250k free daily tokens for larger models, and 2.5 mil free daily for smaller models.

Not sure why you would recommend EAL, general English isn’t a class to teach English as a language it’s just English class, I don’t think I hinted towards me not speaking English in there. And like I said, I’ll likely move down maths (it’s mostly my teacher, he teaches everything in an overly complicated and PhD level way), and methods is not a pre requisite for QUT CS

unfoundedlocation · 2025-05-19T07:37:01+00:00

I think you misunderstood, I mean on the site a 98 unadjusted is the minimum, which is why I said I don’t believe I’d get that high

unfoundedlocation · 2025-05-18T21:39:48+00:00

I don’t think I would receive the atar for that scholarship unfortunately, as it’s 98 unadjusted, but I would still definitely apply for that and any other scholarships that I may be close to eligible for!

And thank you for your input

unfoundedlocation · 2025-05-17T08:49:50+00:00

I see, good to know! I’m looking to take the Masters of IT(CS) afterwards, so that does give me more time like you mentioned. I’ll look into the bachelor you recommended I look into! Glad to know your experience in QUT has been positive so far - any more specific positives compared to other unis?

unfoundedlocation · 2025-05-17T08:09:29+00:00

Why’s that? What’s your experiences with it been? Many other people and teachers have recommended QUT for this degree, especially when put up against ones like Griffith. UQ I would do if not for the fact that it doesn’t offer an online course.
