You are probably looking for something like a 'Dryer Wall Flange": https://www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-4-in-Dryer-Duct-to-Wall-Connector-EZDOCKHD/205046832

Doesn’t matter how similar it looks though.

The only way to tell is to open up both models and look at individual points of the 3d mesh. If their positions in 3d space match up to, say the hundred-thousandth of a decimal, then it is a copy.

But if the model was scaled or rotated or whatever, there would be no way to prove a case because there wouldn’t be a match.

The same thing was done to prove games was lying about copying models from previous games when they claimed that it was too difficult to add all previous monsters into different games because their converter tool was giving them issues.

Did they say how they analyzed the models? Because looking at the silhouette and other similarities isn’t enough to prove plagiarism when it comes to 3d models.

What you have to do is open up both the original and the suspected copy models and select a couple of similar vertices (the points that give the model geometry) and compare the position down to the decimal place. If they are even a little off, then it isn’t a copy.

Didn’t even have to be the US.

Israel has been known to threaten US politicians with financially backing their political opponents unless their Zionist line is toe’d.

Honestly, if I’m seeing more than say two or three currencies or kinds of bits to keep track of, it’s a no for me. I don’t care how much I’m in love with the concept.

Mainly because I don’t have the available real estate at my place to break out every other War & Peace- worth of board game, but especially if it looks like the setup time is will take longer than playing an actual game.

So I think I might have figured out what’s going on here.

You have a cube you are baking to when you have the ‘enabled selected to active’, yes?

Try adjusting the values to match what your geometry is doing between the two cubes if that is the case.

The ‘Extrusion’ value will grow your selected object by that many units before the bake.

The ‘Max Range’ value will determine how far past that extruded layer it will look for geometry to render.

If your target cube is pretty close in size to your sculpt, it shouldn’t need much changing. But, if parts of the sculpted geometry intersect your target cube, you might generate artifacts in the bake like what you are seeing.

If that still isn’t working, try skipping the ‘target object’ option all-together by changing ‘Space’ to ‘Object’ and plugging in a ‘Normal Map’ Node into the ‘Surface’ slot of the ‘Material Output’ Node of the sculpted object’s material shader.

I made the same switch earlier this year. The only real issues I can recall were learning to update flatpak manually because it holds up the other updates if I don’t do that through the Konsole first.

Granted, that might just be my system, but I generally have had far fewer issues with Tumbleweed than I’ve ever had with Mint.

Oh, and my art tablet gets tagged as a game controller for some reason, but it works for what I need it for so I haven’t bothered to fix it.

I haven’t seen a way to do this in-shader yet.

But I know that there’s at least one tutorial out there that just had a couple of references faces/planes facing the directions they wanted, then just copy/pasting the normal from the reference planes onto the appropriate mesh sections. The reference faces were erased afterwards.

I concur. SSBN wouldn’t risk sailing through the canal without shutting the entire canal down just for security reasons.

That’s an SSGN. SSBN, the ones that carry Trident missiles, don’t need, nor want, to be anywhere near the theatre in order to operate.

I’ve been into designing boardgames and worldbuilding with the intention of running a Tabletop RPG.

For my current boardgame project, it’s a Roll-n-Write style game where you travel the map in order to collect random critters.

My worldbuilding project, at the moment, consists of a sort of airship & steampunk world with sci-fi undertones.

+1 for the Tumbleweed!

I just came from a stint on Linux Mint and I’m surprised how good opensuse handles everything so far.
