My preferred way of pLaying!

Tuism

Made payment, but used my real name as reference... Sorry >_<

Tuism

Long story short, I may not be able to do the hangouts due to the crap signal I'm getting here... I hope I can. Gonna try it anyway.

How do we get in with the hangouts? See you tomorrow... Hopefully!

Fengol

Once @Chippit has his screenshare up and running, he'll be posting the link here. Hope you can join us @Tuism

I have to be there for the day so I might as well take part then! Will bring my fee so I can join if allowed.

I probably should have mentioned this earlier but I won't be able to make it in meatspace so
a friendly gazza is carrying my funding and I shall join via hangout

Tuism

Found the best signal I could, now refreshing frantically :)

Thanks a ton for the workshop yesterday! @Chippit dropped the knowledge and set some fun challenges, @Elyaradine showed us how our new shader understanding could be used in production settings and everyone was friendly :) 10/10 would come to more!

(Also, thanks to @Chippit for introducing me to The Resistance and condolences to @Bensonance for that dismal batting performance, ouch guy)

Every day is improved by me teaching people about The Resistance. Also about shaders. But mostly The Resistance.

Yes, it was very cool and useful. I hope there will be more!

Would not have missed it for the world:

This is how I did my workshop: on the border of Vrystaat:

This is how my attempt to make an outline shader turned out:

Thanks for the immensely informative workshop, I really need to re-do it myself to understand what I need to understand :) Great foundations.

Also, wishing I got to Resistance with you guys! It's fast become one of my fav games. Waiting for my KS copy of Avalon to come arrive in the mail. Hopefully soon.

Here's my hacky, inexperienced attempt to salvage what I recorded into something more visually appealing. I will add more as it gets done.

@Fengol Thanks, that was a great video to watch. I feel like I'm actually beginning to understand shaders a little bit! Excited! This was a great introduction I'd say.

PS: I'd love to see a follow up on that!
