Just finished another tutorial by the amazing @polygonrunway!

@TheCartelDel @thirdbday Not least because we just don’t know how policies will change over time. Some LLMs could be rugpulled (see Fable 5), some companies may have very specific AI policies which means the harness/tool you might be familiar with is not on the table.

@CrashOberbreit @rileyb3d What are you looking for out of curiosity?

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@UnrealEngine For me it would have to be Dark Castle on the Mac.

@Christo17624230 @RealEmirHan Sure enough. But he killed it as Peter Quinn.

@sidrenders @IsThisA3DModel Blender wasn’t perfect but whatever tools it had in place could be used with some control, enough control that makes art possible.

Not enough control cannot make art possible. I don’t mean that there should be no room for happy mistakes, that’s also central to creativity.

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@sidrenders @IsThisA3DModel The “it’s just a tool” argument collapses, imo, when it comes to control.

The lack of control in Gen AI, for now at least, bars it from being “just a tool”.

In fact that’s what promoted me to want to learn blender. Because I felt like a fraud when initially playing with Gen AI.

@DoctorLemma Y’all got it wrong on this thread.

It is staged. The horse is purposely walking backwards. The car driving past also did the same (driving in reverse gear).

Then they reverse played the video.

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@Toadsanime Great another reason to hate Unity.

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@Ryvnhll For what it’s worth, I specifically bought Lords of Fallen after it got to a state of being much improved to support a hard working committed dev team.

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@Confrontedgame Your game looks good. It deserves some success.

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@kanavtwt Does it mean it’s time to use uuuids instead

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@wiimee @Ronald_vanLoon @mog_russEN AI bros farming engagement is really tedious with known gen AI but omitting they know it is. It’s not helping the AI cause whatsoever.

@thomasbrushdev Thomas when are you moving to UE5. You have such a cinematic flair. You know this is where you belong.

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@SailawayEnt @thomasbrushdev You never know what it will do when it takes over. Being courteous today might save your life tomorrow.

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@DM_Arts_ @DehFanBoy_ I also didn’t think it was AI. I could tell it was legit Blender work. But it does have that “AI” look for some reason. Possibly the colour palette. I think it looks awesome though. Keep up the good work 👍

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@16bitnostalgia For me these are the 3 contenders:

Shadowman
Unreal
Vampire The Masquerade: Requiem

I will love them all till the day I die.

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@puppstal @muchi123 Wait, gooning is an art is it not

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@DBSteiger @Cronoscript_PR You’ve just revived my trauma around contractions counting as one or two words so thanks for that.

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@Three_Ways3 @YouTube Love your tutorials particularly on State Tree, keep the great work!

[Indie Methods @IndieMethods]

@advancenine Looks ace! Good luck!
