I've had the absolute pleasure working on Warframe: Koumei & the Five Fates and finally got around to uploading some of the stuff I got to help create. youtube.com/watch?v=2zsFZS…

@ThunderSplashYT The piano is one of my favourites hah

@Play_Ruff Long time fan of your channel, I watched some of your videos and they've helped me get better at game dev. The ones that helped were, destructible, magnetic pickup and the slowed down time to name a few. Oh, and I thought your Fortnite piano was really cool!

I'm considering coming back to making tutorials again. I know I've said it before... I usually start them up again and burn out right away, but I was watching some of my old content earlier today and I could hear my enthusiasm in my voice for it. I need that back...

@NotSoLittleC Denied the promotion, one last time. Bitches. 😂

well, it only took until 3 months after i left to be added, but, nice to finally be in at all. much love to the whole vfx team

@Shredz411 Hey, in 5.3 the particle color node definitely still exists in the material editor.

@Play_Ruff Hi dean, love your tutorials. I was learning the smoke tut and on the “Particle Color node, I can’t find it in 5.3. What is the alternative for that node? Thank you my brother for your hard work! Cheers!

@Xbox Thanks, babe.

We don’t know who needs to hear this, but you don’t have to justify enjoying a game to anyone 💚

@NotSoLittleC Damn, nice. I still haven't convinced my place I'm ready for senior level 😭

okay so this is actually a little bit insane, but, the cool thing happened! as of today I've been promoted to ✨Lead VFX Artist ✨on @PlayOverwatch 🎉 crazy excited and nervous to do this and I'm v v v thankful for of all the support and encouragement ive ever received!!!

@TomDoesArt8 That's what I was leaning towards, and then a check if the player isn't moving to set walkable angle very low to initiate a slide, put it back up high once the player starts controlling again.

@Play_Ruff Line trace down from character and use the normal direction to estimate the angle. Then you should be able to do some comparison between that and your players velocity to decide if you want slow or fast.

Hey devs, I'm trying to put together a slope/ramp system for a player character. If traveling up - go slower If traveling down - go faster If standing still - slide down slope Anyone know a tutorial to get this done?

@NotSoLittleC They so cute tho 😭

🚨RAT UPDATE 🚨 pest control have confirmed, they are in the walls. they have eaten through our pipes and are crawling inside the walls and ceilings. we cannot get out. a shadow moves in the dark. We cannot get out... they are coming.

@NotSoLittleC Better than rats in your hood! (My boys love it in there haha)

so, fun little update: our apartment building has rats inside our walls!!! 🙃 for the past week I've been hearing loud scratching and scurrying noises, and today squeaking behind our bathroom wall.

@melcher_denis @NotSoLittleC Those are beautifully creepy

I will literally never be this intelligent. jesus christ

@creativemedias_ @NotSoLittleC Sure, here you go! It's a bit of a long one, but Eric does an awesome job breaking everything down. youtube.com/watch?v=NFs4D_…

@NotSoLittleC Yeah 😊

@Play_Ruff ah yeah no i assumed so haha. is this using mesh distance fields for the traversal?

@NotSoLittleC Oh, these are particles btw, I didn't make that clear haha.

@NotSoLittleC Sure you can! It's a neat trick, I've done the same for spider swarms in UE4. Granted my spider model is a lot more basic😅 I can send you a link how to learn this kinda thing if you want it ^^

@NotSoLittleC I'm going to put your face on the sphere :)

@Play_Ruff this is so unsettling
