Octane render daz studio plugin download1/29/2024 Updates and new functions made available to the Standalone will usually appear in an updated DAZ plugin version after a short period of time. Some of these effects look quite interesting, but I’m not knowledgeable enough to understand how they may be useful.OctaneRender for DAZ Studio supports almost all features of the Standalone, including graph-based Node editing. This is in addition to the multi-pass rendering option, which Octane also supports. This option generates a special pass, like wireframe or a depth pass. PMC, 500 samples – 03:28 (denoiser didn’t work) PMC, 2000 samples – 14:50 (denoiser worked) Info Channel Besides, I don’t see a visual benefit for the increased render time. I’m no expert, but if I can’t get something to work after 3 hours of testing, PMC is probably not something I’d like to work with. It took a third restart to render the 500 sample image, but the denoiser never kicked in. However, a 500 sample test took way longer to render than the 2000 sample test below, and by the time it was finished, the image was not denoised, nor could I press the “save” button. I guess this tells me that should we ever NOT see a render building itself up, we should quit and restart immediately. I restarted DAZ Studio, and at that point, I did see the preview render using PMC. It’s not what I had expected, but with any test, there’s information in here. Turns out this was a mistake: it took my system about 47 minutes to render the scene, and all I had to show for it was a 23k black picture (see inset on the right – I thought I’d post it here for a laugh). According to the Windows Task Manager, my GPU was using about 1% during this render, while my CPU was using about 20-30%. This seemed a bit unusual, but perhaps there was a tick box I could have ticked and had forgotten. At first I thought it does not give me a real-time preview while it’s working. The third option takes the longest to render, and I’ve not had much look with it at all. Path Tracing, 500 samples – 02:20 Path Tracing, 1000 samples – 04:37 PMC While I don’t see any immediate definition changes, I find that Path Tracing renders slightly lighter than Direct Light, and more samples appear to make the image slightly brighter (most likely related to Global Illumination). To get a direct comparison to the Direct Light option, I’ve rendered the default and a pass with 500 samples. The second option came up with 1000 samples by default, and takes a bit longer to render per pass. I find that Diffuse gives a slightly more natural and brighter result, comparable to what we get with Path Tracing. We’re talking a 20 second variation here between the options. The impact on render time is negligible, but as you can imagine Diffuse takes the longest, while off is the most efficient. The diffuse option adds Global Illumination = off Global Illumination = Diffuse Here are the other two variations for completion. Ambient Occlusion (default, as used above).Note that we have three options for Global Illumination: Direct Lighting, 500 samples – 01:53 Direct Light, 2000 samples – 07:15 Just to make sure, I took another pass with 4x the samples, but it still had grain. Without the denoiser grain is a bit much, with with it enabled it looks fine. It came up with 500 samples as a default, which is why I’ve rendered it as such. The default option, or rather the first one in the list is Direct Light. These were saved as 16 bit PNG files (click to enlarge). Until that point, minor grain is visible. The renders below were done at 2000×1500 with the built-in denoiser, which kicks in at the end of the image. Let’s see if we can visually detect any differences. Rather than read the manual, which I’m sure would explain what the difference between each option, I did a few test renders of the scene we built. However, there appear to be four different types of options on how to achieve that. It’s easy to get brain overload with so many sliders! After some fiddling though, I discovered how to render the final image. In a recent stream I got accustomed with some of the options of the Octane Plugin for DAZ Studio.

Xcom 2 wiki1/29/2024 These factions provide powerful hero class soldiers to aid in missions and new opportunities for the strategy layer.The ChosenThe Chosen are the most cunning enemies XCOM has ever faced, each with unique strengths and weaknesses that will be introduced with each new campaign. The expansion includes new Hero classes to counter the “Chosen”, new enemies, missions,environments and increased depth in strategic gameplay.New Factions and Hero ClassesThree additional factions have emerged to strengthen Earth's resistance – the, Skirmishers and Templars – each with its own unique abilities and contrasting philosophies. In response, a new enemy, known as the “Chosen,” emerges with one goal: recapture the Commander. This may be a developing oversight.XCOM 2: War of the Chosen adds extensive new content in the fight against ADVENT when additional resistance factions form in order to eliminate the alien threat on Earth. On Veteran+, Psi strength is 90, which virtually guarantees a successful psionic attack when without a Mindshield due to how Will has been reworked, even on Colonel ranked soldiers. In the War of the Chosen expansion, the Psi strength of Sectoids is reduced to 40 on Rookie difficulty only.This change starts in May (June on Legend difficulty), but both types coexist for roughly one month. Later they will appear in pods made entirely of Sectoids or as support troops for other aliens. In the early game, Sectoids are always deployed as pod leaders followed by ADVENT.Takes +3 damage from melee weapons, effectively doubling Tier 1 sword damage, thus making them ideal targets for Rangers and Templars.Their immunity to panic and mind control, along with the ability to Disorient Sectoids in order to break panic and mind control for allies along with killing Psi Zombies is invaluable early on in the game. Consider equipping a Grenadier with a Mindshield and Flashbang Grenade specifically to combat Sectoids.Sectoids which have raised Psi Zombies or mind-controlled units, however, should be high-priority targets as the Sectoid's minions will be able to attack on its next turn.Therefore, on the turn they are revealed, they can generally be de-prioritised in favour of other enemies that are more likely to shoot at and wound XCOM units.Their psionics, however, cannot directly cause damage. Unless they are in a flanking position, Sectoids will never shoot at a target they will always choose to use psionics instead.They may also fire if another Sectoid has already acted on their turn. Besides flanking, Sectoids will only fire their pistol if they are disoriented or if both of their psionic abilities are otherwise unusable (such as when both abilities are on cooldown, or when there are no valid targets for their psionics). They may reposition to do so, but will avoid getting themselves flanked in the process. Sectoids are likely to take flanking shots with their plasma pistol if they can.Flashbangs and other disorienting effects will cause psi-controlled units to become disconnected from the Sectoid -this also causes Psi Zombies to instantly die. Psi Zombies count as units (missions involving mandatory evac cannot be finished until friendly Psi Zombies are killed as they cannot be evacuated) and their deaths reduce the rating of the mission. If a mind-controlled Sectoid revives a corpse, the resulting Psi Zombie will stay alive and be friendly even if the Sectoid escapes mind-control or dies. The Psi Zombie is able to move around independently, but will die if the Sectoid is killed or afflicted with a turn-denying effect. Psi-Reanimate: Summons a Psi Zombie from the corpse of a humanoid target.Mind Control: Dominates the will of a target, controlling its actions for a number of turns, or until the Sectoid or the target is killed.Psi-Disorientation: Dominates the will of a target, attempting to disorient the target.Psi-Panic : Dominates the will of a target, attempting to force the target to panic.Mindspin: A "roulette-wheel" type attack with a variety of different effects, potentially including mind-control.Sectoids have a medium amount of HP, but no armor. The blasters are handled by the Sectoids in a similar fashion to the original Sectoid Commanders, using them as "last-resort" weaponry when psionic chances are too low or impossible. Sectoids use wrist-mounted blasters that are similar to the Plasma Pistols of the original Sectoids, but smaller and seemingly designed for use on the arm instead of merely mounted there. They are still fairly thin though, and their chest still glows. They are significantly taller than their Enemy Unknown versions, and now have a visible mouth with teeth. Using an infusion of human DNA, the Sectoid has grown into a much more imposing form than when it was first encountered.

Overcooked 2 download speed1/29/2024 To change your frame rate, you’ll need to disable vertical synch (V-Synch). You can adjust your frame rate (measured in FPS) in your game settings. With a lower frame rate, you’ll use less data, but it’ll be harder to react quickly to what’s happening in the game. A higher frame rate refreshes the game more often, which makes it update faster.If you play Overcooked 2 with the maximum four players, you’ll use more data than if you play with fewer players. This data includes information like player movement and chat logs. The more players in a game, the more data your internet network has to share with other players’ networks.The number of players in your game, your frame rate, and the tick rate of your server all affect exactly how much data you use. Expect to use less than an average of 50 MB of data per hour playing the game. Overcooked 2 is less complex than the average game and therefore uses less data. These updates aren’t typically very large, but – if you’re worried that an unexpected update will push you over your monthly data limit – you can turn off auto-updates and manually install patches and updates when you have data available. Team17 releases occasional patches and updates for Overcooked 2, which it details in the news blog. Simply purchase the physical disk and install the game offline, instead of downloading the game.

Keep in mind that file size is larger than download size (which is compressed), and that both the file size and download size of Overcooked 2 increases over time as developers add patches and updates to the game. The file size for Overcooked 2 ranges from 2.79 GB on PS4 to 8.04 GB on Xbox One. The initial game download uses more data than updating or playing the game.

Pipifier reddit1/29/2024 to do that, you’ll only need to pinch the window in and out. You can also change the size of the window. You can also use your fingers to place the floating window on the desired spot on the screen. While using the PiP mode, you can close Safari and the floating window will be displayed wherever you head, it won’t depend, on Home Screen, other apps, etc. Then, you’d see a small floating window at the bottom of the screen that would be played. To complete the process, you should click on the “ PiPifier” option in the drop-down menu that would be displayed.Next, you should click on the “ AA” icon which is placed at the top left side of the screen.Then, you should find the video you want to watch.After that, you should head to the YouTube website.First of all, you should open the Safari app.So, if you want to use the PiP Mode, you should follow the prompts which would be mentioned in the section below: When the extension would be downloaded, you’d be able to use the PiP Mode and watch the small projection of the video at the bottom of your screen while using other apps and the iPhone in general. This extension would help you to get the ability to watch YouTube videos, movies, or series and use your phone, for example, to write a message at the same time. Since then, you’ll be able to use the PiPifier directly from the website settings menu. To complete the process, you should click on the “ Done” option.After that, you should switch on the “ PiPifier” option.Next, you should click on the “ Manage Extensions” option.Then, you should click on the “ AA” icon which is placed on the top-left side of your screen.After that, you should head directly to the Safari.First of all, you should install the app on your iPhone.So, if you want to enable the PiPifuer extensions, you should follow the steps which would be mentioned in the section below: So when the extensions would be downloaded, you would be able to use them directly with the YouTube website. This would lead to the opportunity to use it and experience the feature. The first thing that should be done is to set the PiPifier extension to your Safari. With this, you’ll be able to watch YouTube and use your iPhone for other purposes. So, as you can see, the app gives you a great opportunity and workaround access to the Picture-in-Picture Mode on your iPhone. It’s important to know that if you want to use productively this app, your OS is required to be at least iOS 15, iPad 15, or macOS 12 (the Apple M1 chip version). PiPifier is a free app that can be found in the App Store and is supported by the iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, and Mac. That includes YouTube, however, you’s be required to access it in your web browser. PiPifier is presented by Arno Appenzeller that is basically an extension for Safari and gives you an opportunity to access PiP Mode with any HTML5 video (essentially every web video on iOS) in Safari. This meant that PiP is still available for the regular YouTube app, but only for premium members on Android.įortunately, if you’re an iPhone user and want to experience this feature, there’s a workaround to access YouTube with the Picture-in-picture Mode. It stated: “Are you using an iOS smartphone? If so, the Picture-in-Picture feature is still rolling out & will be available in a matter of days across all iOS 15+ devices. However, YouTube has posted one more tweet which has caused some confusion among the users. However, you won’t have an opportunity to activate it now and no one knows when the feature would be returned. However, some time ago the video hosting posted a twit on their official Twitter account that the feature is removed, but if you’ve enabled it before, you can still use it. The Picture-in-Picture Mode has been presented as an experimental feature for YouTube Premium subscribers nearly a year ago. Apps like HBO Max, Netflix, etc, could be used with this feature, however, not each app supports this feature on iOS, and, YouTube, unfortunately, also. This feature gave the users an opportunity to watch some streaming platforms or apps in a floating window while using the device for another purpose. Picture-in-Picture Mode has been presented by Apple developers in 2020 when iOS 14 has been released. How to use the PiPifier extension What’s Picture-in-Picture Mode.

Projectlibre criticalpath1/29/2024 After 3 meetings, I ask my students to submit a PDF file of their project. If I notice that there is an error on 1 of the team’s laptops, they often have a proper plan on the other laptop. I move around the classroom while the students are working to observe the progression of their plans. They can then develop the project schedule and calculate the cost of the projects once the hourly rates of the project resources are provided by the teacher. Next, it is the team that decides how the tasks will be distributed. Michel explains the steps and the project deliverables for the school construction with some diagrams and drawings as input. Each team has 2 laptops to develop 2 Gantt charts in parallel, and the best of the 2 is kept for submission to the teacher. Even if the students have never encountered a digital project management tool prior to coming to his class, after a 15-minute demonstration, the students are ready to take their first steps in the software under the supervision of the teacher. Michel tells me that his students don’t have any difficulty learning to use ProjectLibre. What’s more, the course would remain highly theoretical if we didn’t use this software. The use of software to create Gantt charts means that we can avoid planning the project by hand. Our manual work with CPM is formative and useful, but we quickly see that we need a tool for planning projects that contain several tasks. The students see that the previously arduous task of creating this project manually suddenly becomes feasible thanks to this software. Next, Michel shows students how to organize the project with ProjectLibre. When teaching manual methods, Michel limits the number of tasks as opposed to a genuine project since it would be too huge and unrealistic to do absolutely everything by hand. I show my students how demanding it is to manually organize a project using Critical Path Method (CPM). He tells me that if there are 100 tasks to execute, you also need to foresee the relationships between these tasks if you are to understand the sequencing of their execution so that you may identify the critical path (the shortest path to its completion). During an activity to put a worksite together, Michel uses the construction of a school as an authentic situation to help students learn to plan. In the Managing Worksites course, students learn project planning. Additionally, when students engage in Civil Engineering job shadowing internships, these students are able to understand when the general contractors show the students a project schedule for the worksite. Since 2012, a number of teachers in Civil Engineering at the Collège Montmorency have been using ProjectLibre for the courses entitled Managing Worksites ( Administrer des chantiers) and Develop an Integrative Project in Civil Engineering ( Élaborer un projet synthèse en génie civil). Project management software is widely used in the building sector, whether it be in architecture, estimating costs or evaluating projects. (Source: Michel Bélanger) ProjectLibre in Civil Engineering You can see the name of each task, the duration of the task and predecessor or successive tasks. The ProjectLibre interface showing a project file. This type of tool is useful for all sorts of projects, including:ĭevelopment and implementation of a new service In addition to creating the project schedule (Gantt chart), this software helps you to estimate the costs associated with the project once you have entered the hourly rates of resources required to execute each task (material, equipment, labour, etc.). The software allows you to create Gannt charts, which are diagrams of the project flow that allow you to visualize a timeline with: ProjectLibre is available for download for free by teachers and students.
