@GameDevTV What... is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?

I'm replying to every comment on this post, ask me anything! I hope I don't regret this... 😄

@bforartists Blender makes the best juice!

💙+🧡 Blender 5.1.0 has released! Meaning we are targeting a Bforartists release early next week! Stay locked. It's a juicy one!

@pl_young @WispOSoul @Affinity I used the guide for Lutris. github.com/seapear/Affini…

@EyephoriaDesign @WispOSoul @Affinity Which path did you take to get it working well with OpenCL enabled and changes to UI (Studios) being saved?

A brighter workspace, faster ways to turn selections into vectors, new brush controls and a completely new way to blend layers. Let’s get into what’s new in Affinity 🎉🧵👇

@WispOSoul @Affinity Yes it does

@Affinity As much as I love this software, it's a shame it doesn't work on linux.

@spi3lzeug @colliholly I know you already have EX, but it’s free to just import the final pages from CSP into Affinity by Canva. Then export for print.

@colliholly i genuinely don't understand the price of EX, all it does is add basic design software features like *gasp* bleeds and slugs, and exporting batch files along with giving you animation. but now that i make comics full time, it's unfortunately worth it

ive been using clip studio EX ver. 1 for ages and the license for EX ver. 5 is on sale.. albeit still pricy has anyone bought the recent update and if so, was it worth it? are any of the features worth the almost $200 update?

@grok @vladimirdesigns You’re wrong, this is the Plasticity app.

Take a closer look—the bottom timeline shows sequential operation steps (extrudes, cuts, combines) with color previews, left browser lists features/bodies, and right panel has live properties/dimensions. That's Fusion 360's exact parametric modeling layout, even if your setup hides panels or uses a custom theme. Booleans are front and center here.

Most hardware design is just Booleans. Always has been.

@grok @vladimirdesigns I don’t think so. Fusion 360 has a different interface.

@EyephoriaDesign @vladimirdesigns It's Autodesk Fusion 360. Solid CAD app where booleans (cut, join, intersect) are core to parametric hardware/mechanical design like this.

@Kikato2nd @riskirills @Affinity @canva @cavalry__app Look up Bazzite or CachyOS. Depending on graphics card some games have better performance in Linux than Windows.

@EyephoriaDesign @riskirills @Affinity @canva @cavalry__app Ik that steam deck exists with proton, but i never seen a single person saying "I want install linux for gaming!"*

From static to motion, @canva's professional design suite just got even bigger. Created by animators, for animators. Welcome to the family, @cavalry__app 💚 Read more on the latest news: canva.com/newsroom/news/…

@Kikato2nd @riskirills @Affinity @canva @cavalry__app It was never for gaming either, but look where we are now.

@riskirills @Affinity @canva @cavalry__app linux never was for design 😭

@CancunTwitch Dwight sounds like Jim, and Michael like Dwight 😂

Seedance 2 prompt The Office episode where Dwight and Michael have a conversation about mogging, jestermaxxing, and foids.

@AbeV4U That’s a clip from UHF, Weird Al’s movie. 😂

OMG Hollywood is cooked. I prompted Seedance 2.0 to recreate Kramer hosting a kids' TV show. The movie execs are packing their bags if they know whats good for them.

@aburtking @historigins Also no helmet

@historigins Nothing advanced about this video, he has no safety goggles, wearing short pants, no Kevlar pants or chaps to bind the chain if he slips and hits a leg, in short, he is an idiot.

The advanced cutting technique that allows controlling the fall of trees in tight spaces

@bforartists @andrewpprice @Blender I’d imagine that @bforartists users also have downloaded the official @blender too, if that makes a difference. 😜

@EyephoriaDesign @andrewpprice @Blender Currently our downloads average 15,000 to 20,000 per month, which is 0.0075% compared to Blender. 😅

@andrewpprice I’m curious to see a poll of users running vanilla @Blender vs @bforartists. It has an interesting UI. Have you tried it?

@sean_gause @mike_doscher @csaurageul 2.6 WAS user friendly compared to 2.49 and earlier 😜

@mike_doscher @csaurageul I HAD to use Blender. I started with 3D as a little kid, so the idea of paying for software was an impossibility for a middle schooler with no money. AND I had to use the early version of it (version 2.6, I think?) before they made it far more user-friendly.

When I took a 3D animation class in high school, I would do all my work in Blender and then sneak it into class on a flash drive and import it into 3ds Max because I hated that software so much

@Affinity @ForzaGrana Liberation Sans?

@ForzaGrana Liberation is loading - see you soon!

The wait’s almost over. Reimagined. Rebuilt. Ready to revolutionize your workflow. Follow us and turn on notifications so you don’t miss it: affin.link/ig

@Affinity @CallMeViCtoR I think you’re only sowing confusion with your vague announcement.

@CallMeViCtoR We’re making space for what’s next. This short pause lets us transition cleanly without confusion between versions. Existing customers keep full access to their apps. This only affects new purchases and trials.

True creative freedom is just around the corner. Be there when it happens: affin.link/wh3

@NjColtsGuy @SandyofCthulhu It’s not even legible as English.

@SandyofCthulhu Kia logo is way better now. Especially on the vehicle.

One day I would like to see a logo redesign that made it look better instead of soulless and terrible. Can anyone give a counterexample?

@cr8ivlyinclusiv @BlenderDev @Blender @Apple Is that true in the US? All I can find online is about the App Store in the EU.

@EyephoriaDesign @BlenderDev @Blender @Apple They explained that since it worked on Mac with the M series, it’s easier to start with iPad, and the latest iPadOS 18.6 has opened up to apps outside of the App Store….you can look it up
