Watching the Haunting of Hill House ......
I've always thought the Autopsy of Jane Doe as the hugest impact on me as a horror afficiando but .... the Haunting of Hill House offers one of the most terrifying, nail biting, hide behind the couch, don’t even breathe, I’m going to pass out from fear things I have ever watched. In-My-Life

This is making me terror vomit in joyful confusion

Perhaps all former governors are collecting jumbo packages monthly but that doesn't make it right.
To drag Jagaban's name here reeks of hatred and envy. When did Jagaban start setting moral standard for Nigerians?

Oh for Jesus Christ's Sake.l..
stop this half-assed defence of Tinubu.

Stop

He is about to douse himself

GreetMe:
And who told you those sins don't also exist here in Nigeria? The difference is, it's acknowledged over there while it's done here in secret.

God needs to cleanse the world not only the United States

Oya force God na!

Good day bro. I just started character animation in blender but I'm having some issues with the cloth sim.
1. Do you clothe the character before animating it or is the clothing done after animating.
2. I always have issues with the collision object (body) and the cloth, the cloth penetrates the body and sticks there. I think the problem is with my collision and cloth settings so I would be glad if you could tell me the settings you use for your character cloth sims. I've searched on YouTube but I've not seen the solution.

You're doing a great job but you rarely update the thread.

no. I dont Sim the cloth before animating or while animating. It is almost near impossible to do that unless you are using a super computer from Chinese Millitary.

what I do, is make a visual guide of the intended cloth, rig it with the xter and then start animating. Once i am get done with the animation, I begin the proper clothe sims. I would prefer to make my clothe sims within the software in which i animated. but most TDs often Animate in Blender then transfer as alembic to Maya ( so as to use the Qualoth Plugin) or Houdini ( so as to use Vellium.......Velium is super excellent)


I dont know why i find it hard to sim properly in Blender myself. I am only good with free form cloths in blender. I think its best to animate in Blender or Maya and export your scene ( as alembic not fbx) to Houdini. Try to learn how to use Vellium cloth in houdini. You wont regret it.

I tried to update as much as i can but i am often bugged down by "Client work". But this December is going to be super free for me. I intended to complete all my personal projects this year.

Someone is gonna hurt himself.....

He is gonna douse himself with an incendiary and set himself alight!

I hope i can carry this project out....

topology time...

fleshy eye rig time.

*************
face topology is the weirdest and most time consuming part of character design. Particularly if you intend doing face rigging, you must get them loops around the eyes and mouth accurate.

I use russian Scanner Wrap 2.4 to achive this. Its a lot faster than manual retoplogy.


The next hard step is the fleshyeye rig. Face rigging in general is not easy . Getting your eyes to deform the eyelids as they move adds an additional level of realism to your facial animations. always endeavour to include a fleshy eye rig to your characters always

If you are a Christian,your duty is to submit to your husband and his duty is to love you. Don't you people buy surprise gifts for yourselves? This is one way you can use to ignite the fire of love in your relationship. Prepare his best meal for him. Be an obedient wife, Take a stroll together, See a movie together, Dress sexually for him at home and make love to him when he wants it and generously too. And in return your husband will shower you with lots of love.

So love should be bribed!

She can do all this and the Man would still not love her. Sex does not give love, you know.

If there is no love.....there is no love!

kingxsamz:
Leave me abeg.
I'm happy to be a hypocrite. Why man go dey chook man.
Disgusting.

Here is a honest Man...

I like Everyone.

I think its stupidity to despise someone because of his sexual orientation...

Let me quote Wole Soyinka...

Anyone who thinks that death is the appropriate cure for that physiological conditioning which, through no fault of theirs, attract them to others of the same sex. You pronounce yourselves clones of demented rulers like Yahayah Jahmeh of Gambia who preached that we all cut off the heads of homosexuals
.....

I hate it when people confuse Amawbia with Awka.

For Jupiters sake, Amawbia is a separate Suburbia like Awka.

Its like refering to Togo as Benin

Swaziland

That poverty cesshole?

Chai Africa. Corruption os in our Dna.

The other countries have everything going for them so they can afford such huge pay but Swaziland??

Joe Igbokwe is an Ape...

Hi Sowore....

You wanted to be a Martyr, now you are a jailbird.


DSS is filled with deformed Cretins

I regret being a Nigerian...

Osaze007:
Ipob & lie

They said Antartica not the North pole.

Ordinary geography...haba

mrchineke:
International investors and lenders want land in Anambra? Land in Anambra?

Challenge your ignorance bro!!!

You are not really as bright as i presumed...

gidgiddy:
The reason why there is bad leadership is Nigeria. Nigerian leaders cannot be held accountable in Nigeria. But in Biafra, they will be held accountable

Nothing in Nigeria works. So if want a situation that works, you must first endeavor to get out of Nigeria

Thank you...

Thats what the OP dont understand.

How would you challenge the likes of Ikpeazu in present System when he is part of the Machinery called Nigeria?

In Biafra, it will be a new start. Biafra would have the advantage of being a rape victim who had learnt her lessons the hard way and now knows what street alleys to avoid. There wont be ethnic colorations or powerful central forces that will protect the likes of Ikpeazu!!

johnkey:
maybe they should start printing more notes

You want Zimbabwe to occur?

mrvitalis:
Oga more than 60% of peoples can ...they just don't trust the government enough

Even if they can, can their tax generate £1b a year? The answer is no.

What Anambra needs is to Borrow from China or make it self a tax haven like the Bahamas for foreign investors to invade.

Taxing thr citizens wont garner £1billion

mrchineke:
And what collateral or leverage will anambra offer the lenders?.

Anambra can begin by offering them land and a tax haven for 10yrs in exchange for world class infrastructure.

Have you been to Djibouti lately, half of tge new high rises is based on this approach.

Besides who needs FGs aprroval, since laws are taken for granted in this country. Anambra should go ahead and apply the approach jare.

Anambra can start borrowing from richer states like Singapore or China without the FGs aprroval.

Hanoi in Vietnam did so, now they have better infrastructure...

The state needs an ambitious developer like Herod the Great or the Dubai sheiks.
Sometimes one needs to think outside the box.

Taxing the indigenes wont give any significant modern infrastructure boost.

Borrowing from China or even from hedge funds on Newyork stocks is the best option.

Or why not adopt this approach by a downtown district in LA. They approched chinese investors, gave them incentives of 10yrs tax free and told them to develop 7 twenty five atory high rises in an area. The Investors agreed and viola the area is now Modern.

I noticed that almost every civilization on earth{note that i used , almost not every} has lores of Mermaids or Sirens as the Greeks called them...

In Igbo cosmotology she is often interchanged with Mother Earth...Ani


I noticed also that apart from a few African civilization, Mammy wata or Mermaids or Sirens are often depicted as dangerous , blood-seeking beautiful chimeras.


And if u research a bit, you'd observe that settlements or people further away from rivers or coasts or basically people in higher topology do not have aspects of the mammy wata. Can you explain this Handsome OP?

Would really like us to work together....

freeze001:
The last picture is a complete aberration and should not have been taken, least of all released to the public. If the state government is supposedly trying to take these children off the streets, which is commendable, why were they then required to take pictures with the very items that represent the ills of their conditions and with the Commissioner standing right there? These are children whose identities should be protected yet the same government has released such an uncomplimentary picture, to what end? Someone obviously asked them to carry those bowls and stand with the commissioner, it is not a random picture and that is the worst form of insensitivity!

Governance/leadership in this country leaves a lot to be desired. The better picture should have been to show these children enrolled in schools and dressed in clean uniforms within a learning environment not this! Their families should also be evaluated and provided with sustainable livelihood skills and some capital or equipment to keep the kids off the streets.

You should be in A leadership position. Chai.

You are good.

You guys should fight for it...

So over the holidays, I created a little crash simulation.

It's still a work in progress. I will have to resolve the broken pieces to a higher resolution.
Right now, I am trying to find a way to mangle the helicopter or break it into parts upon impart. But I am yet to find how to fracture imported alembics.

The animation and modeling was done in blender.

What was achieved?

I created constraints that held the house and only break in parts based on the density of the object that impacts on it.
Created different categories of Glue for all the components of the house.

Further milestones to cover:

Debris and dust
smoke upon impart

UV mapping of all the broken pieces....Lord help

Rendering and lighting.

Thank God for Reno...

Esseite:
Another off point... available to stress what point? How does Atiku even relate to the topic which is what you mentioned ab initio if not wanting to redirect it to your area of speciality "partisan lines" then gradually introduce "Ethnic bias " into it..

I really dont think this is your line of engagement.. you sway more on Igbophobia and Party partisan topics..

That Metaphysical is a deformed cretin when it comes to logical reasoning...

Omoodua007:
Or even exterminate their entire population
And it was a war
They wanted to invade Lagos
Awolowo should have killed at least 10m to send a strong signal to them that 3m wasn’t enough
Loool

This is the reason why Igbos hate Yoruba....

You are the reason.

Anambra is Neat...chai

This is its most populous city o. And yet livable.

Throw off me hat to all Ndi Anambra!
