Unreal Engine 6 announcement has broken me. If I'm going to have relearn how to use the engine, I might as well just learn a new engine. #UE6 #FuckAI

Does anyone else find it weird that the last big cell to spacex test group announcement with Tmobile also came a few months before an election? Just me? That's what I thought.

Went to the talk about it at unrealfest. It is indeed exciting. There's more toolchain to come as well as integration into things, but all of that stuff tends to come later. There's a shell command and an API.

Got my ticket for #UnrealFest26 in Chicago! Anyone else coming out this year?

Game Jams rarely end up where you wanted to finish. It always takes longer than you think it will, and you end up needing to edit and distill the game to what you can accomplish before the deadline. This is the essential skill that game jams teach developers. How to edit.

He did apologize a little while later. I mean, you can understand his confusion though. Weezer *did* do a live cover of All The Small Things. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 #pwhl youtu.be/nxx0QpPuVfA?...

Ah, I see. Toronto can't catch them, even though they're currently 4th because they only have 6 games left. Therefore if Fleet lose their last 6 then they would still end up 4th. 👍

Seems a little premature. I mean, its highly unlikely, but Ottawa is only 21 points behind with 8 games to play (possible 24 points)? If Ottawa loses this game against the Seattle in regulation, then yes, clinched.

He also sponsored the women's water polo team at the last summer games.

Exactly, the time spent switches from writing to debugging. I used to do code review, and I can only imagine the extra work being generated by these AI slop submissions.

Maybe I wanted to watch the violin/cello solo during America the Beautiful? Did we really have to cut away to montage shots for the whole thing? 🙄 #SuperbowlLX

It's a strange game, Charlie Brown. It seems the only winning move is not to play.

Looks like summer vacation is over. Time to get back on my bullshit.

Being able to clearly communicate to the player the state of the circuit, where the power is going, and what it might be powering is so important. Its easy to just have it flip a flag behind the scenes but doing all of that so cleanly as you have is an art. 🙂

I love how the whole conduit lights up when powered. Excellent attention to detail.

#RestInPower, Chef. You were a bright light that will be greatly missed. Thank you, #AnneBurrell.

I suppose if someone had managed to get themselves onto everyone's block list, I could see how it might seem a tad dead.

Heh. This movie was notorious for destroying subwoofers in theaters.

Heh. 3 downloads and 2 plays so far. 😂 I wonder who the first one to beat the first level will be?

Yeah, Lumen is on by default for UE5. Give this a whack and see how it does for you. Open AppData\Local\\UE5\(GameName)\Saved\\Config\WindowsClient - Engine.ini, and add these lines to the bottom to turn off Lumen: [/Script/Engine.RendererSettings\] r.DynamicGlobalIlluminationMethod=0

The cards before the RTX series do not do hardware ray tracing. Its literally just not a feature on earlier cards. There is a fallback mode and there are ways to detect the type of card and do things differently in the code, but currently that's up to the developer to manage it themselves.

For anyone else curious, the location is in Leamington Spa, UK.

To this day, I can't visit the riverwalk in San Antonio without thinking of this game and the movie.

I had an internship one summer at a law office and they tried to give me a day of busy work by having me sort their DOS Lotus123 spreadsheet of clients. They were floored when I showed them the sort function and did it in couple keystrokes.

They don't care about what you're doing with your money. They're using it to find and track people of interest.

This is so strong. Getting back on the wagon is hard enough. Calling yourself out publicly is next level. Huge respect. 🤜🤛

And just like that, I'm registered for #UnrealFest 25. See y'all in Orlando! Make sure you sign up before April 15th to get your 6.66% early bird discount. 😈 #unreal #gamedev

I can read it fine if I zoom in on the phone. It's the contrast that's the issue. Dark on light or light on dark. Light on light or dark on dark make things hard to read *unless* that's the point! (Hiding secrets or something)

Chris Regan @teeleton.bsky.social · 28/03/2025

Bright green on light background color is practically invisible. Everything else looks pretty good. Maybe a bigger drop shadow under the green or a dark "glow" behind it will give the letters better definition against the background.
