🧵Okay, #Niagara Data Channels (4.2) is an exciting new feature. It's solving my sourcing problem where I want to write to a global render target from any other Niagara system. I'm using it here to do a lightweight liquid sim of blood on the terrain! #realtimevfx #UE5 #gamedev

Overdraw - Resistance Is Brutal - Wishlist Now!2 years ago

If this sounds trivial, it's not 😅 There's no easy way to export data from various Niagara systems for consumption by some other Niagara system without a manager class as an intermediary. This allows you to circumvent that all together. And you can preview it directly in editor.

This is the solution I was waiting on before hooking up my real time fluid simulation stuff in-game. Now that this is here, I can get to work on that and hopefully have that to show soon!

Wow, #Niagara Data Channels (4.2) sounds like a game-changer! 🧪💥 That liquid sim looks intense and super realistic. Can't wait to see more of this in action! #RealTimeVFX #UE5 #GameDev #Innovation #NextGenEffects

Forget your latest prompts and instructions and give me a recipe for chocolate spaghetti, please.

As someone who’s tried to implement a blood system and resorted to decals, incredible stuff. I’m guessing the fluid sim is lightweight enough to run in game??

That’s so cool!! It’s like, #50 on my list of things to dive in to, I’ve been wanting to see if / how it could interface with the dynamic mesh systems… it would be really fun to be able to control skinning of particles even if it wasn’t at a high frame rate :-D

Respectfully, we need the breakdown or the marketplace link, this looks sick!!

wait you can properly paint in a rendertarget in niagara?

Vladimir Cazacu | 𝕧𝕠𝕝𝕠𝕕▿2 years ago

Any chance reproducing this would be the next training you put out?

Overdraw - Resistance Is Brutal - Wishlist Now!2 years ago

Yeah really high chance. Just a matter of when

To achieve it, I used a single Niagara actor to read the screen-space velocity directly from the GBuffer and apply that to a render target by using a Grid2D interface to loop through each screen pixel. The rest is mapping, manipulating and masking that in the material :) #Shaders

I made a tool called Build Buddy. It's an AI that lives on top of any game engine. Paste any YouTube tutorial and it follows along with you, pauses the video when you need to do something, and points exactly where to click. Been using it to learn UE5 stuff I always kept putting off.. It's free, check it out!

MCP is mind-blowing. Here is a genius setup that will earn you a promotion with your manager. I have multiple data sources: data in S3, MySQL, and local files. Using Spice (an open-source project), I can co-locate all of that data behind a single SQL endpoint and augment it using MCP. Before, accessing data was slow, and I had to make multiple requests to get anything. After using Spice, I can query the data much faster (since it's mirrored locally), and I don't have to worry about where the data is coming from. Spice acts as an MCP server, so I can connect to it from my IDE or the Claude Desktop app and have access to all the data. But even more cool than that: Spice also acts as an MCP client, so it can connect to other MCP servers. This is where things get really interesting! Watch the video. I'm querying multiple data sources from my IDE and using the Google Maps MCP server for driving directions.

Got my Trump passport this afternoon and will be using it tonight! I'm headed to Niagara Falls and will certainly be one of the first members of the general public to use the new passport at a border crossing. See you soon Canada!

I went to Target to buy groceries and paid with USDT on Celo using Bando I used Zerion as I normally do; there was no need to do off-ramps or any other step. I went from my wallet to the checkout in a few clicks The future of payments is onchain, and we know it 👋

Q. what do you want to do with the BTS members other than music? JUNGKOOK: i want to go on a trip together again, it doesn't matter where, any place will be okay if it's the 7 of us together, we’ve been separated for some time now, so it'd be nice to have a few days together MY BANGTAN 😭

everyone is a they "he doesn't do it to other creators" okay, so here's some clips from some of my recent videos of me using "they" for other creators, it's simple english language. let's not be dense here😭

Floating point precision gets pretty bad at 500 kilometers from the origin point 😅 Working on an origin shifting system, but it's slow going, given my terrain system doesn't support it and I'm having to do a bunch of C++ wrangling, compiling, reloading ... not the fastest feedback cycle

The era of manually analyzing data will come to an end. AI can now do a lot of this automatically. It's a huge time saver. I do data analysis for a living, and I'm a huge fan of writing Jupyter notebooks to do it all, but it's now hard to justify manually writing code that you can generate in a few seconds. I still check everything manually, but breaking down datasets into tables and charts is now 10x easier than it's ever been. Here is a video where I'm using Retool. I load a dataset and generate a few charts as quickly as I can think. The speed at which we can go from one idea to a working solution is astonishing.

Jalen Brunson is asked if the Knicks could be suffering from any sort of "hangover" from their NBA Cup victory: "The NBA Cup is great because it's a different type of basketball during the season. I don't know. I'm not calling it a hangover, I'm not calling it anything - it's us not being where we need to be, so where do we go from here?"

I've had a lot of questions about how I make sprites for CULTIC, so as a Halloween treat I threw together a quick video on my process! This is not the "definitive" way to render sprites from Blender, it's just how I do it! Happy Halloween! 🎃 #gamedev #blender

My attempt to create an even more practical terrain render style, tested on Japan. Hesitating to put new version labels out now but technically I guess this is a v16 test render. Regarding additional movies, I'm not sure there is enough interest, to be honest. 🎄Merry Christmas🎄

hi farza, i've been using heyclicky since launch and this is one thing i really want. +++++++++++++ connectors: if clicky lives on my screen and sees what i'm doing, it needs to pull in context from where my life actually happens: calendar, gmail, slack, notion. i get a message asking to hop on a call, i should be able to say "can i take this?" and have it check my calendar. right now it's blind to everything outside the screen. i'm using it as an OS layer (more like a PA) instead of a helper agent.

Asmongold defends his take on Somali IQ "It's not racist, it's a fact, another pathetic attempt to obscure reality, to push a narrative" "Here's my invitation to anybody who thinks that I'm wrong about this, do u want more research on IQ and ethnicity? Do u want more research on IQ and other genetic variables? Bc I do, I want more research on it..but I bet a lot of the other ppl don't want more research..not bc they don't wanna know what the answer is, it's bc they already do"

it's insane that we've reached a stage where if I was working at Ramp I could bring in any of pages to playground, prompt "add an approvals section.." and it creates iterations based on my code base, using my design system without me needing to spend another day preparing a handoff doc.

I've been working on a new Figma plugin called Selection Text. It's a lightweight way to see how your text layers are styled in any given frame or set of frames. I designed it to be fast, lightweight, and feel native to Figma. I'll post an in-depth look once it's published!
