    Texture painting (and any images in general) are saved as separate files in blender by default! They’re not saved as part of your .blend file. You can press alt+s while your mouse is in the image viewer (or just click the image dropdown menu at the top of the image viewer, which should have an asterisk if your image is unsaved) to save the image.

    Alternatively, you CAN pack the images into the blend file! Under the file menu in the top left, select external data > pack resources. Then, whenever you save your blend file it should ask if you want to save the image too. note: you DO need to have saved a separate copy of the image first for this to work, but you do NOT need to keep the separate copy after you’ve packed the file.





  • Oxygen Not Included - after binging ONI videos all month I finally decided to give actually playing the game a go. Turns out watching lots of high level gameplay does not make you a good player! The struggle is tons of fun though.

    Stationeers - A second super complicated game, I just had to hop in and play with all the new robotic arms they just added! Or rather, I would if I could make a functioning station in the first place… Time to go refactor the atmospherics again!

    Satisfactory - The hat trick for brain melting games this week, with the release of 1.0 I’ve started up a brand new world and I can’t wait to mess around with all the new toys we’ve got! Unfortunately I’ve been hit with a nasty post-release bug but hopefully they’ll fix it right away and I can continue my factory adventures!

    Astro Bot - A game to help unwind after the stress of the other three games, I genuinely cannot comprehend the amount of heart that went into this game! I seriously find myself grinning from ear to ear every time I boot it up, and I’m always looking forward to my next chance to play!



  • You’re right, there are, but my point was that private MMO servers are significantly harder to host and moderate than a private server in a match-based multiplayer game like say Team Fortress 2. An MMO that relies on private servers is almost certainly doomed to fail, so it must have some form of official server, which then will need some form of cheating prevention.


  • The issue is that that’s only a solution for a certain type of multiplayer game. MMOs and battle royales for example cannot feasibly implement community servers as their main form of multiplayer connection, because very few people have the capabilities to host such servers, much less moderate them at such high player counts. Heck, there’s even arguments to be made for the value of public matchmaking, despite how often it gets blasted in spaces such as this. Private servers are unfortunately not a one-size-fits-all solution.

    The reaaon tech literacy has dropped so much is actually because we’ve gotten too good at UX. You don’t need to know nearly as much to do most things with computers now, so most people don’t bother learning about how to properly use a computer anymore. Setting up an email address or a router or a website has gotten significantly less complicated so the average person can do it without needing to learn any new skills. Hell, phones are so streamlined that most people probably don’t even realize their phone has a file browser.
