how do you get the angle & fov so close to the original!! is it just trial & error or do you superimpose the photo atop the game somehow

recently ive been tracing the outlines of the rooms in Clip Studio Paint, and then capturing both CSP and the game in OBS and changing the blending mode for CSP to multiply!

i use CSP's perspective ruler tool to find the horizon in the reference picture and then compare it with any doors in the image (theyre very consistently 2m tall) to find the height at which the photo was taken, and then make a little platform in the game so the pov is at the same height

i then trial and error the approximate position by putting down square tiles and lining it up with the floor in the picture. i'll then build up the walls (theyre usually around 2.5m tall, so i just make them 13 blocks/2.5m tall and use the resizable cube to get the ceiling to the right height). then i do even more trial and error to find the FOV, focusing on matching the angle of vertical lines near the sides of the screen.

i use a kitchen cabinet inner corner piece to "save" my position, i'll back into it to get to the exact same spot every single time. i'll also place a small item (usually a clothing hook) on the wall on the spot my cursor needs to be so i can always face the right way!

often the images have to be rotated very slightly for the horizon to be perfectly horizontal. i'll always note down by how many degrees, and when i'm cropping the final screenshot to the correct aspect ratio i'll also rotate it to match :)

SO I NEED IDEAS.

Vampire (& Dhampir) Batfam. I already have ideas on who is what. Who was born vampires, who was turned, who is a dhampir, etc. But I need ideas for the story.

I would love any ideas put forth.

do u think illumi is bad at cooking ? i have a feeling he would be but im not fully convinced , what are ur thoughts ?

I think that hc is based off of the fact that Illumi as a Zoldyck probably 100% had professional chefs prepare him all 3 meals everyday. And while I definitely agree with that, I also think there is no way the Zoldycks have not taught Illumi survivability skills that included the basics of cooking or making your own food with what you're provided (like chucking em in the zoldyck forest and they just gotta find their own food from there for a month)

How I see it, from the logical pov he doesn't necessarily cook. He knows the basics, but thats about it. BUT if he were given a recipe book, he can replicate the meal down to a T. He can definitely cook textbook perfect recipes if he wanted to.

Whether that counts to "bad at cooking" or not is up to u tbh but im also one of those people that find it very funny if he would just ruin the entire kitchen on one saturday night because he lacked the knowledge of fundamentals like not leaving oil for too long on the stove or having to be careful of cleaning meat to not spread salmonella all over your kitchen. you learn through practice after all and when it comes to standing in an actual kitchen i think he had about none

maybe shit like salmonella wouldnt affect him but.......... poor hisoka lmfao

my general hc for illumi cook is he learned a lot through watching hisoka cook first and foremost and was supervised by hisoka the first few times before he was trusted enough to be set free in the kitchen. I see hisoka having a whole written textbook of recipes he saw and likes to make and illumi uses that as his guide to making whatever he needs in there.

there are still ways for him to mess up even with all these pillars of support but imo that doesnt make him a bad cook yknow? It's like that one meme abt someone asking u to heat up a cup of water and u send them back a photo of a glass cup on the stove. He would just take things too literally but hes a fast learner so im sure after a good year of living with back and forth practice he'd become perfect at proper safe cooking.

TLDR he cooks just not safely and needs very clear proper instructions and guidance and proper practice to truly thrive but that does not make him a bad cook by definition. does that make sense.

Something about how Heart is being compared to mythology, Minds referencing the bible & Soul being the one to use both of those things

can you please share your thoughts on watari as a character 😭🙏

I sure can!

I think he was introduced originally as a purely plot devicey sort of guy, without a lot of deep thought put into him... just this mysterious cloaked figure slinking around in the classic detective trenchcoat and fedora, bringing intriguing news from L on his laptop now and then. Then as the story progressed Ohba expanded his role into another plot devicey stoic background Alfred the Butler sort of guy. THEN once Ohba decided to go the direction he did with the story, he filled in L's backstory more (as he said he didn't have a fixed origin story in mind for L when he first created him) and came up with the idea that Watari had originally been a great inventor / the concept of Wammy's & L being something of a "invention" of Watari's - which definitely puts a potentially creepier/darker spin on him as a character and his relationship with L, and by extension L's successors. And other stuff like the one-shots showing how Watari first met L, and how darkly the Another Note novel depicts being one of Watari's experimental L runner-ups, further adds to this ominous vibe.

Thinking about Watari realistically and the implications of Wammy's, putting these orphans into competition with each other in ways that clearly messed many of them up, he seems like a bit of an evil bastard, and even Ohba said something along those lines about Watari/Wammy's in the behind the scenes book himself. but I don't think originally that had been the plan for him as a character. It just sort of developed that way as Ohba filled in the backstory of his characters and further extended the plot. I actually think it's a bit annoying sometimes, because I find him to be kind of a funny/inoffensive presence in the story otherwise, and at times I wish he could have remained just some guy that L hangs out with - I'm always caught a bit between going "haha look at the funny old guy scooping ice cream/scolding L for being rude/sniping people from helicopters" and thinking that it's not okay to appreciate him for that because Wammy's is kind of the worst/he is kind of the worst for founding it, maybe...

[dennisboobs]

plain and simple i am not going to be able to remain in this fandom long-term if i have to keep putting disclaimers on every single one of my posts that say i don't condone dennis' bad, bad actions and that i am in fact aware he's got a history of sexual assault and dubious/nonconsent. the entire gang has done heinous shit. why is dennis the only one who needs to be treated like this? if some rando wants to post about how dennis is pookie pie that doesn't automatically mean they're blind to his crimes. every single member of the gang is a piece of shit. that's kind of the point.

draw dennis with cat ears who give a shit

[deadbeandrop]

"average camp lazlo fan has 5 camp lazlo OCs" factoid actualy just statistical error. average camp lazlo fan has maybe 1 or 2 camp lazlo OCs. tumblr user syd deadbeandrop, who lives in cave & has at least 43, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

[dallonwrites]

wrote 437 words and whilst i'm glad i have an outline for this chapter i forgot briefly about the beauty of discovery writer swag because none of what i wrote was planned and all stemmed from one description line like i got carried away but i had fun. i was free

I think that part of what like. kills me about the whole media literacy and critical thinking aspect of enjoying media these days is that people refuse to like. contextualize that

A. Bad media can still hold significant meaning to people

B. Media made for a demographic you aren’t apart of is not inherently bad media

C. Media made for and consumed by the opposite demographic is not inherently shallow or flawed nor is it above criticism for its media tropes either.

[magic-crazy-as-this]

Tried to give myself white Jason Todd fringe but it's kind of giving Narcissa Malfoy instead?

Also, peep my Nightwing phone, you must tell me it's rad.

(ignore the weird cheugy mirror that came with my apartment lol)

Might try and lighten it again tomorrow...

sometimes you spend a week ignoring real life and being a tourist in your own city with a friend and then the crushing weight of adult responsibilities comes back in full force

[icewindandboringhorror]

a quite simple outfit, trying to use the little blue and white apron thing (which is actually a dress I think, that I just leave un-buttoned in the back and added an apron-like tie to lol)
