The analogy is fine. We're not talking about the ends here, but the means. A crime isn't justified because the victim made the crime so attractive, whether it's theft of information or sexual assault. If the assault analogy is too remote to work, let's go financial. If an insider at a major credit firm had hacked your…
Hi everyone, I'm currently working on a puzzle game project in Unreal Engine 5, but I’ve hit a wall regarding the overall look of my environments. I have three main areas I'm working on: * The Lobby * Egg Puzzle Room * Water Puzzle Room * 4. Puzzle Technically the gameplay works, but visually the scenes feel "flat" and…

Thank you so much for checking that, and verifying thats the problem. I've not had a chance to open Max again yet, but glad I know what to look for now!

Yeah that movie gave an odd impression for sure but I am talking more about art style the games pretended to be "photo real" starts to give you. Certain detail fatigue you eyes are getting . I blame too much of procedural approach and increased sampling in PBR shaders. Few years ago the shaders looked like what Substance…
@crawl Thank you :) I cannot tell either, both projects are fun. I'm not so sure at this time, still have so many things to figure out in life. But the Think Tank courses looks very promising to me! (Thank you for the info)
My parents' 2.0 Primera averages about 35 mpg, and we consider that a decent-sized family car. It can make a 350 mile round trip pretty easily on a full tank. My Micra gets a better milage per gallon, but it has a smaller tank, and a 1.4 litre engine. That's what the trip computer tells me... I would not really consider 24…
I've been frequenting various forums for a long time, and this makes me realize how much added value it truly is. What forums can produce, no video or social media can match. I was asking for help on which direction to take because I was lost, and you even wrote a guide on where to go.
I thank you so much. For the…
