Thunes to acquire payments platform Tilia LLC
Porky Gorky replied to AzureWaves's topic in General Discussion Forum
I liked how he seems to be interested in owning a virtual world that he is not fully in control of and that he feels SL’s continued existence is important for the world. It demonstrates his motivation for continued ownership, beyond just the bottom line. -

Based on what I've learned of the owners, they are going to want to sell I think. But there is little value in a dry cow and I think they will attempt to sell the platform sooner rather than later, before it becomes an udder failure. -

The sky has been falling forever it seems. I left SL and these forums for 10+ years and before I left it was filled with doomsayers predicting the end of days, with me being one of them. Yet here we are in 2024. The fact that SL still exists today is amazing and I don’t think we should be counting it out just yet. -
Lab Gab April 2024 - Comments? Discussion?
Porky Gorky replied to Love Zhaoying's topic in General Discussion Forum
Whilst I totally agree with your sentiment, I don’t think an increased cost or any other barrier to upload will solve the problem that is about to descend upon us with the introduction of 2k. Many content creators and casual builders buy full perm textures and materials from texture artists. The creators of full perm textures and materials will still pay whatever amount to upload files and will then turn around and sell them at a low price to their customers, because the upload costs will be covered by making multiple sales. As textures are generally sold full perm, they will then likely be redistributed for free or repackaged and sold at an even lower price, as is the trend in SL. Before we know it there will be numerous people in possession of 2K textures who couldn’t care less about optimized texture usage. -

2k Will only become mandatory to clueless designers who don't know how to effectively tile/repeat a texture without breaking up repetition. Also, I still sell prim and scultpie products literally everyday, I also have an old account that still sells just 512 px diffuse textures regulally so I can only conclude that you really don't know what you are talking about. -

How do I do a temporary (local) image upload in V3?
Porky Gorky replied to Porky Gorky's question in Viewers
I just searched “How to do temp local upload” and the first result was me, asking the same question 10+ years ago. That’s funny! -
On that wiki page you linked it says: Under "Display Settings": Tonemapping - Function: ACES However ACES is not an option in the function list. https://helpx.adobe.com/substance-3d-painter/features/post-processing/tone-mapping.html I ended up creating a custom shader that generally matches but now I’m wondering, why is the ACES tone mapping function suggested when it’s not an option and did I miss something obvious? Edit to add - maybe that wiki info was for an older version of Painter? You can set up an ACES color space during project setup.

"Coming soon: 15% reduction to mesh download impact" question
Porky Gorky replied to Lyric Demina's topic in Mesh
Yeah I guess that’s true. It would bother my slightly autistic brain though, I would have to change everything. -

Porky Gorky replied to Lyric Demina's topic in Mesh
Gosh, imagine being a mesh content creator who has to check all their items to see if the Li has changed and then update all their marketing and listings to reflect the new Li. -
Things that Happened in SL
Porky Gorky replied to Charlemagne Allen's topic in General Discussion Forum
In 2005 I bought my first mainland plot and put down a house. On the 1st day of ownership I returned home after a shopping expedition and found a fox humping a squirrel in the middle of my living room. That was pretty f’ing weird.- 87 replies

It looks like we are getting 2048 textures on the main grid soon, so that will give you better results if your are not worried about texture load time.- 12 replies
